As usual I was driving home through Koramangala. The traffic was heavy and I wanted to get home as soon as possible, it had been a long tiring day. So had been the immortal Scorpio guy's day. It was a sharp turn and I "nugged". And his mammoth machine scratched my little baby.
But you see it is just a car, so I drove off, without even wanting to wait. But he kept following me, and ensured finally that I parked. I got off apologized and he took my license number phone number and name and told me he will take care of me.
Yeah it was partly my fault as well, but I honked and he did not hear it. I even apologized and offered to pay for the damages. But what scares me is the fact that he was so angry. There is so much angst and hatred and frustration that it shows up this way, you flare up for so many small things. It is not only dangerous to the person, but also to people around him/ her.
It comes from bad lifestyle, excessive work, estranged relationships and what not! But it is scary where we are headed as a society if such anger can be provoked, for such simple reasons. After all, it is just a car that got scratched!
