He spoke very pleasantly. I liked the way he came straight to the topic. I smiled at him for the first time. ‘Please come in, have a seat’, I showed him the couch. As he came in, I noticed that he is a lot taller and fitter than Ravi. His T-Shirt showed more of his muscles than its intended purpose of hiding. No doubt, the beautiful girls visit him, I thought, then immediately wondered ‘why am I jealous?’ As we sat, he continued ‘I need some recommendations from you regarding the colleges. Sorry If I have disturbed your afternoon nap. You must have been exhausted after your busy day, my apologies again.’ I warmed up to him. ‘no no, not at all. That’s ok. It’s a pleasure I could be of help.’, and proceeded to give him the details. He was a good listener and didn’t interrupt me as I spoke, looked straight at my face and no where else. It gave me the feeling that he is a proper gentleman. I felt at ease in his presence, for I am usually very reserved when I meet new people. His easy going nature must have been it. He was asking various questions about the neighbourhood and was telling about his wife and son and even before I realised, I got deeply engaged in the conversation with him.
