One day Kartik and I had gone to a small place where some poor people lived. Both of us had no idea what we would do. I anyway depended solely on my deep voice and few words to make interaction. He parked the bike at a little distance and we walked towards the place. Some kids had already started playing with the bike. They were tiny enough to play hide-behind-the-wheel. We had a packet of sweets with us. We slowly approached them. When we got near them a guy came and took the packet from me, we had no say. We just looked on. A lot of people gathered and wanted to have a piece of sweet. It was a completely new experience to us. We could not decide how to react. We turned back to go. A little girl came and tugged at my shirt and asked for some money. We asked her why she does not go and eat the sweets? She did not answer. She kept tugging at my shirt. Slowly we walked back to the bike planning on how we should handle it the next time.
