It was a sudden storm during the peak Delhi summer. A hail
storm along with a very welcome rain. As one would expect, I was happy. Surprisingly I found Sanjeev
seating beside the uprooted neem tree with a sad face. As if, he was about to burst
in tears.
It was quite strange. A street vendor so much passionate
about greenery! But Sanjeev is a smart boy anyway. Though he has very little
education, he often talks on topics like internet, income tax or
insurance. May be, he started thinking about global warming too!
Then he opened his mouth. “Sir, in this heat, where do I
seat from tomorrow? The only shade in the vicinity is gone!”
