Am I 20?

Why I feel I am 20 and Why I feel..I still ain’t….


He still calls up his parents daily to talk to them.
He doesn’t talk to them for more than 20 minutes.

He buys milk when his friends animatedly dispute which beer to be bought.
He has been to bar, disco , night club..tasted wine..

He still says what he feels and feels what he says
He keeps quite when he feels the opposition is too heavy.

He still spills food and milk and whatever is in his hands at least once a month.
He has learnt to eat with a fork and knife the French style.

He still rides cycle as a habit and not just for promotional campaigns.
He goes to promotional campaigns because he loves to see the jaws of DU chicks drop.(something which makes IIT Delhi stand out…)

He hasn’t washed a single piece of cloth till date and hasn’t cooked a single meal all by himself.
He figured out how to operate a behemoth called a washing machine fully configured in French all by himself.

He can't find his way to the stack of plates kept right in front of him and looks and seems to be all over the place.
He never had any problem in finding his way in the Paris International Airport.


He is still as obstinate about the things as he was to get the Hot wheel.

He cries and cribs and then gives up…when he realizes something is beyond his reach.(which most things these days seem to be..)

He sobs, he doesn’t weep.

He sobs when no one is watching.

He feels mothers lap is the best place in the world.
He hasn’t been in there for a month now.
