It was just another bright early morning. I come down the stairs from my apartment for a walk, "What is that? Is that a new lock on my friend's apartment! definitely looks in a different color" was my mind voice. I go close to the door to realize that my friends have locked their door from inside and have left the keys on the lock. "Was the key on the door all night long! What if a bike thief had come and found the key! (Bikes get stolen often near the campus in Tucson) How can they be so careless, very irresponsible" this was my mind voice then. Maybe, I should just take the key and let them search for it sometime, only then will they know said an alter ego. Then the good guy in me said no let me call them and give the key. I decided to call, to my surprise the reply from my friend was, "you have the key will get it when I wake up". It was 7.30 in the morning. I was surprised and puzzled how can people be so careless!
After sometime I decide to go to library to do some studies. But, as usual I end up chatting with my friends back in India, Great talk. Though my mind was occupied with some chatting and some studies in one corner was the thought "How can people be so careless". Then I decide to have lunch, I went to Kababeque a newly renovated Indian restaurant at the University Blvd along with a friend I kept admiring the new look of the place Greenish white theme with a cool look. But still at the back of my head was the thought "How can people be so careless!" I come back to the library and continue my partial studies and partial chatting. It was almost 4.00 PM, I decided to go and give the keys to my friends. On my way back home was thinking of all the advice that I should give them.
I reached my friend's place and returned the key. But instead of the things I had wanted to tell the talk got diverted because of my stupid hypothesis of how the number of likes a person get is related to the number of friend one has. My friend was very eager to disprove my hypothesis and i ended up leaving their place, still thinking "How can people be so careless". Then I go for an evening walk with another group of my friends and we realized that we needed to buy some groceries but there is no safe ride today as its a Saturday (Safe Ride: Free car service run by University of Arizona for students). It was my moment to glory. I tell them I have my cycle, "The one who has a bike makes his own itinerary" I offer to get their groceries while I go. Felt really proud of myself. I go to my bike parking. To my dismay I find my bike missing! Oh my God. Did the bike thief really strike! I try to recollect all my footsteps for the day. I space out, I can't figure out when I last saw my bike! "How can i be so careless?" All of a sudden a flash of thought, I went to library in morning on my bike but thinking of the advice's to give to my friends I forgot my bike and walked home back! I ran back to the library hoping against the odds that the bike is there.
There I find my bike in the library parking lot, unharmed and untouched. I got my senses back. "How careless can I be". Mind voice : "Never should I take the moral upper hand ever" :P
