This is a story about my magic umbrella, which has done everything but magic, but I stil prefer calling it a "Magic umbrella" and I dint know wt its going to o next…..My magic umbrella has been a big disaster, and forget causing nuisance to others, it had caused its owner pain, grief, embarrassment and what not..
And it still hangs here among the other umbrellas in my house and I stil want to carry it everyday. All I hope is that it doesn’t create another history…..
I purchased my big red Umbrella from Crawford makrekt.Well, going to Crawford to purchase an umbrella was all my idea, for the fact that you get stuff priced at really cheap rates there. And yes..Thts wt I wanted..A umbrella priced cheap to last me just this monsoon.. None of my good branded umbrellas have ever lasted for more than a year, more than 4 showers of the same monsoon.. (to be precise.).lolz..So this time I decided, Il do some justice at home and buy something at a lesser price than my usual expensive ones and not bother when this dies out...HAhaha…So when all of us went shoppy shoppy, looking for my umbrella, my folks made sure its the Big one that I wanted, a colorful one, big handle and something not that costly…
Hunting hunting, we finally found something. Though in the start I dint even want to buy that, cuz it was not colorful, a solid coat of maroon and important… it looked smaller than what I wanted …No I dnt expect a beach umbrella, but ya I wanted something. Somewhat sized like it..Hahah..ok..ok..But however my ppl shut my mouth saying, that the other umbrellas was bigger than my size so I should just stick to this one. And handling me and my umbrella for them, seems not easy..wtever..
.Alas…I got it home…Yeah..My big maroon Umbrella… Jus wished u were a little bigger that what u are)..hehehe..
Hmmm… I dnt know this umbrella was not meant for me.(realizing it each day now).lolz…It made its owner feel all that she doesn’t deserve to feel. I told my mom, about her( my umbrella) and assured her that yeah it wuld last for this monsoon, and she questioned me back asking “If I was sure”? And I confidently told her, yeah it surely would. I purchased it for one season u c..it surely wuld last , whts the deal??
And the Adventures of my Big Magic Umbrella begin:
Day1: The next day after I brought it home. I was bored and there was nothing to do..A brat that I am, I opened my umbrella…N walked in an out with it..Wow..soo cool..…Yeah..catwalk..How would my umbrella look?, How big is it?(pretty big, I answered),and does it go with my floral rainy footwear that I purchased few days back?....Rite…all my demos were on…
Opened it so many times and shut it.The feeling was nice..Practing for the rainy day. And finally opened it again. And ouch …Noticed that one stick was out: sob sob…Ghosh...i felt so crappy… (But m smart. I blamed the quality of these cheap things)..Hahaa….Sad case.Indoors, without using it out at all, purchased yesterday and broke it today….Do you have to say thing on that? My frnds made me feel so NOT nice the next day……All bhasans of me crossing limits of my not handling things and bal blab la..Hahahaa
Day2: I reached bandra station in the morning, and seen my friends waiting down for me. Walked nicely in style with my big magic umbrella. And waved to them a chiry hie...Yes with my big umbrella swaying in my hand. Not realizing, that there were 10 people walking in front of me…And magic. the front portion of my umbrella ( The pointed thingy) pokes this lady in front of me real hard. And wow. Clueless about it. I take a step ahead and she hits me so hard on the station in front of God knows How many people and I turn back So may faces all looking at me( embarrassed. totally)…hahaha..Riite..This is what I do..Hahahahaa…instead of saying a sorry (I was unaware that my umbrella hit her ok...But did realize it by then)..I laughed on her face...Soory..But I found it amusing. The way I said a hie and the next moment that Hit…(folks say the sound. Thud was pretty loud)...Hhaah...N too ad to it.. Wow. My dear friends. They tel me, I should have hit that women back and given her some ghallis.They were like Hit her. Hit her...n I was Laughing..(Funny na)..Nope..it was al my fault and I couldn’t dream of doing that. But that lady did hit me real hard..M sorry aunty…hahah…..N the day goes again. With my folks making fun of me and my tragedy queen and how I dnt retaliate to that lady…I dnt find it rite to do that, I am a Big fighter cork but I shuup for once. I was sure my umbrella hit her real hard…
Day3: It happens to be a nice rainy day and we end early with our lectures. From the start of college, ive been requesting my friends to tag along to bandstand to enjoy the beautiful weather. And so that day, they were fine.Nyways, like always it was just 3 of us who landed there. And wow…I was enjoying every moment of my time there. It was breezy, raining and I loved the rain drops on my head…slpish splash….And to my amazement, we could even see couples having the best of their time under their Umbrellas...Hahaha...Felt like giving them my Big umbrella too. Good I dnt, u never know what it would end up being. So we enjoyed our time there, did a lil bit of Photography, walked the strech..And finally decided it was time we left the place. So we came out and stood and the bus stop waiting for a bus. I was on a cal, when the bus arrived. The bus stopped, my frnds got in.And I was the last one to get in. Was on the phone still and Guess what…??Hahah..My big Magic Umbrella slips outta my hand and falls out and the bus begins moving. And the next thing I do I Jump outta the running bus backwards to pick my umbrella, and in the background I hear the conductor giving sum ghaalis...Hahaha...M outta the bus and bye bye. The bus dnt wait for me. It carried my frnds and left away: sob sob: I stood back with my big magic umbrella waiting for the next bus clutched to myself.
Day 4: Suprising...Nothing Happens
Day 5: It’s a Sunday…
Day6 :( today) 1st July: After a good tasty yummy Gelato, we reach Bandra station. We met a frnd of ours after a long time. This guy happens to be my real close frnd and he knew about me shopping for my umbrella and my need for a BIG umbrella. So we were just debating upon the fact of how more big it culd have been and stuff. N one of my pal was making some fun of my big umbrella, and v both ended catching the sides and pulling it..Hahaha..I was enjoying it..:; winks:: and v were pulling it really hard K..And suddenly she leaves it..And yieepe..The feeling in me was great. I thought I won. And she would fall. And then I turned and …..
Hahhaha…The Handle was in her hand…Shocked…No I wasn’t. Magical U c..Hhahhaa….N then v all laughed about it and I shamelessly went on n on. And then told me to b ready for my Mamas noise at home..Lolz…I fixed that thing before I could reach my home. Now, it looks fine to me..
And there hangs my umbrella with the other ones….A new day, anew incident for toomoro..Dont know what awaits..
