"Was I any Good?"- I asked her.
She looked at me and smiled- "Your first time eh?".
I nodded.
"Hmmmm... well I usually don't reveal such stuff to my clients"
"Please... please tell me... I have to know."
"No kiddo... I can't... sorry".
"Please..."
She started toward the door. I got up, ran and blocked the way.
"What's this shit? You want me to call my guy?"
"Just tell me if I was good or not."
"You're wasting my time boy... in my profession, more than any, time is money and I'm not paid to give my judgement".
I took out a 100 and gave it to her. She took it and smiled.
She ruffled my hair and said- "you were absolutely fantastic boy!". Then she laughed and walked out.
Somehow I got the feeling that I'd been taken.

Ahem! AJ..... I guess I can draw so many conclusions from this little dialogue! :)
But I prefer to call it a negotiation of sorts! :)
what do i interpret of this? ;) :P
all well that ends well
Liked the spontaneity with which the boy gave her 100 rupees. Other than that, I couldn't really make out much. I could owe it to a little dizziness due to cold! ;-)
Sir!!! Please react something, before I make any conclusion out of this!!!
Cant stop to mention the post holds feelings!!
haha! :D nice one. :)
@all
This is a fictious piece about a young adamant and impatient man. He thinks he's done something great... but then he finds he's been taken for a ride. What I wanted to bring out was if we get too greedy or too arrogant that can be a big weakness.
Hii Ajai..that was a thoughtful situation that you presented. Thanks God I read ur explanatory comment afterwards :)
So I was free to interpret it my way till then...keep writing!
@Amritbir
Thanks. :)
Wow. She accepted the 100 rupee note. :P She must be REALLY desperate for money. Nicely told Ajai :)
woah! Ajai... endless list of conclusions from this story of yours...
@Dhanya
He offered her 100... he was desperate for the answer! :P
@Me
endless! :)
Hehe.. Yeah, you have been taken!!
Nice writeup. Well it drives several conclusions but what i liked the most was - What he thought was a special moment turned out as a business. :-)
@Darshan

@Ajeya
You have got it absolutely 100% right. Thank you. That's exactly what I was trying to convey.
