I was in an event in a management college of Gurgaon. I didn't knew the campus well. There was still some time left for the event to start. I was waiting for a speaker, who had invited me.
He : Then let's have some coffee
He : Oh, great. I also live around. We stay very close. We can just catch up anytime.
Why do old men think young women and girls would want them over guys their own age?
Me : Thank you.
He : So, are you here just for the event? What college and course do you have?
Me : I'm around 17 & You? (Don't take me literally)
Where did Noah build the Ark? Was it in a desert or near water?
Me : Ok. Although, I don't feel age has anything to do with the understanding and experience of a person.
He : Yes, Monsoon month. What place do you stay in Delhi?
Me : I don't drink

Then the friend whom he was with, he also went away to the canteen. Now, only this guy was there alone. Standing!
I am still confused that which nice guy in the world, asks a girl to meet for a movie at the first-ever meet?
Me : Sure.
Me : Because it's month of August.
He : If you're free anytime let's catch up. Have some drinks!
Meanwhile, I was wondering from when did Chandigarh came in Madhya Pradesh? Maybe, I need to revisit geography of 10th standard again, or does he need it badly. Management, you know!
Do you think your landlord should have a key to your room?
He : Cool. No, I'm not from this college. I'm the PR coordinator for their event. Are you from Delhi only?
He : Oh. You know, I also had Eco major. We both stay in South Delhi. We both are single. So much similiarities. And you're pretty also. What do you do on weekends?
P.S. : The conversation above is filtered removing all the rubbish, “normal” slangs of metropolitan city's students.

Me (smiling, hesitant but firm) : I don't think anything.
Let's be a little serious. Is there any “Student of the Year” movie going on here in Delhi/Gurgaon colleges?
Me : I don't drink coffee also

Me : No. I am a resident of some other state. I'm here in Delhi for studies.
I was alone there. Firstly, he came and kept his bag, and asked me that he's just coming. I said fine.
He : Tea ?

Yeah, I can understand that you're exploring. You're another “Dora - The Explorer” from Delhi. So, you should also find girls who're just explorers like you. Keep playing DORA-DORA!
Even in movies, you won't find any guy reaching out to a girl and asking for movies, drinks and chill at the first meet. The female character would literally slap such a guy (in movies).
Me (a little confused) : I don't know

I sat there on the bench for a while. There was a boy standing by my side. Seemed an official, but maybe a management graduate. Offcourse well dressed (Cream shirt and black pants), offcourse smart, with a good accent and Delhi attitude (too much slang).
He : Btw, you're really pretty.
Me : Yes. I'm from Delhi University. Eco Major, 2nd year. Are you from this college?

He : Yeah. Getting. I have also been here for years now. But I'm fed with Delhi. I have lived in Mangalore. My family is from Chandigarh. Madhya Pradesh you know.
He : So, are you seeing someone?
Me : No. I don't drink coffee, tea anything.
I was feeling as if I was being flattered too much.
By now, I have already understood what he's trying to do. Still, I waited. So, I told him a place nearby to my locality.
He (smiling) : So, what do you think about me?
I just like staying by my own self, away from Dora–The Explorers. Genuine people are always welcome :)
Me : No
I was already blown that why being a 24 year old, he's being creepy with me.
Let me tell you, this guy is already an MBA pass-out student and I'm just a Sophomore at my UG.
He : I'm 24.
He : I don't understand why it's so hot and humid today.
He : Okay. Fine. We can just watch a movie. Have some fun. What's your age?
By now, he was at least sure that I'm not the kind of girl, he's looking for. With the excuse of a phone call, he moved towards the auditorium.
