routine

My routine  is watching the world go by  , the view from my  lobby  shows me  people walking  on the street  , bikers  noisily  driving past, scooters, three wheelers, cars of every unimaginable shape and size  silently  at great speed  whizzing past, for a few  consecutive days  an electric  slim vehicle  new upgrade version of three wheeler constantly  would stop at my gate , nobody was seen getting in nobody got out,  one evening  I was watering my potted plants  and this electric vehicle stopped and the driver walked out to  reach  a neighbor   several houses away,  I was still busy pruning when he came back  to noiselesly drive away,  I asked what were his charges,  he was a supplier  didn't take passengers 

A few days later I ordered home delivery fruit from a shop and this electric vehicle delivered me the fruit  , there are mostly two options of payment  , online or cash on delivery,  online again is prepaid or post paid

I handed him the cash  , for the fruit  and for balance he was short of money  , he had bigger denominations  

Two months  passed  again  I was busy in my potted garden  the electric carrier stopped the man  made eye contact  , graciously he offered me his telephone number  , he dictated it as I keep my mobile on me I obediently punched his number  gratefully,  he didn't return my leftover balance  but it was good to see another familiar stranger  again
