Young waiters were running around non-stop, serving
people at different tables with their favorite items. The atmosphere was very
interesting and amusing. Families, young and old, had occupied lawn space. Different
partitions provided different facilities to different people, who had come there
to spend time with friends and families. The lawn space looked mesmerizing, the
moon had appeared in complete circle, no artificial lights were around to mar
that beauty. The people were talking in hushed tones with their favorite drinks
in hand. It was a perfect scene. The milky white light of the moon had covered
the whole area. Palm trees planted at the borders of the garden had stretched
their shadows on the lawn. The light filtered in through the palm trees and
fell on the grey-green grass, and created some weird design of light and shade.
The winter cold was a little bit harsh. Therefore, the human bodies demanded
something hot and spicy to ward off that chilling cold. An old Hindi film song came
floating in the background and at some distance; a large screen was screening
the visuals of the same Hindi song. The atmosphere seemed romantic. The old
songs continued for some time with the electrifying moon magic.
Suddenly, the big
screen switched to cricket show on demand. The cheer up girls appeared in life
size on the screen like angels. The people from the lawn also cheered and waved
to the girls in return, forgetting their girlfriends and wives for a moment. In the cricket game, as the scores went on raising high,
the electrifying moon was declared clean bowled out for zero. With the appearance
of coco-cola advertisements during the short breaks, demand for the bottles increased,
along with finger chips and fried peanuts. More and more people arrived as time
passed and joined the cricket club. Having bowled out for zero, the moon started
diminishing, as the demands went high for coco-cola bottles and finger chips,
on the other side. Values of life change
as time rolls on.
