Mike & Luke on Morning Walk

Mike: Hey Luke, we got here on time. 

Luke: Yes we are. 

Mike: It's a good thing, however, we started late, but "Better late than never".

Luke: Yeah!, you can say that.

Mike: By the way, why you suddenly thought it is a good time to start walking, and you called me yesterday.

Luke: See, the thing is, yesterday in my office, my boss said, "Luke, I think you should lose your weight." Am I fat?

Mike: Hmm..! Not much but you are a bit heavier.

Luke: What does it mean? it means indirectly I am fat, right? 

Mike: I didn’t mean that but yes, you are

Luke: Couldn’t you say straight away?

Mike: I thought you'd be angry. 

Luke: Angry my foot. 

Mike: Hey just cool man. You'll get your shape back if you'll keep walking daily. See I am also obese (overweight). 

Luke: Yes I know. By the way, what makes you start walking? 

Mike: Because of the yesterday event. 

Luke: Did your junior insult you? 

Mike: Nah! They don't have to dare to do that. He advised me when we're having dinner together. 

Luke: Who is "He"? 

Mike: My cousin brother. Yesterday my cousin brother with me. We were on dinner and he said in front of family, “Mike, you shouldn't eat more bread, otherwise you'll gain more weight." I felt embarrassed. 

Luke: What's wrong? 

Mike: Oh! So now you're paying me back? 

Luke: Same pinch. 

Mike: You'll never change Luke. 

Luke: You too. 

Mike: By the way, we are childhood friends. So we will never change, I guess. 

Luke: I can't say about you, but I will keep remain like I am right now. 

Mike: Yeah! OH MY GOD! 

Luke: What happened? 

Mike: It's 9 o'clock. Today is my important meeting and I have to reach office till 9:30. Okay Luke, I have to go now. Nice to walk with you, Luke. We will meet again tomorrow morning. 

Luke: Yeah. 

Mike: Make sure you'll be here on time.
 

Luke: Don't worry. I'll be here before you. Good day, bye.

Mike & Luke in Metro

Mike: Hey Mike! What a pleasant surprise? You are here? In metro? Where is your car? 

Luke: Hello Mike, My car broke down in the middle. 

Mike: Bad luck huh! 

Luke: Sometimes it happens though. 

Mike: By the way where are you coming from? 

Luke: I just left from the office, and going home, and what about you? 

Mike: I am also going home. I am to go to a grocery shop too before reaching home. 

Luke: Grocery store! 

Mike: Yeah, to get some household items, you know. Well, Nowadays the metro is becoming very crowded. 

Luke: Indeed it is happening, but I barely travel by metro. I prefer my car instead. 

Mike: But travelling in the metro can save our time. And by car, it is very complicated, like traffic, finding parking area, need to focus while driving and a lot more. Isn’t it so? 

Luke: See it depends on you, some people like driving, and by car you can stop anywhere, carrying anything. You can do whatever you want. You are an owner of yourself. And you can also avoid public rushes in the metro. 

Mike: Agreed, but what if the person doesn't have a car? 

Luke: Then it would be a compulsion to travel by metro. By the way, you were going to buy a new car, didn't you? What happened? Have you bought it? 

Mike: No, Bad luck, the house had to be repaired. Hence, I couldn't buy it. But I will buy it next year for sure. 

Luke: Sounds good! And I'm sure you will. 

Mike: By the way which body style car do you have? 

Luke: I have a sedan one. 

Mike: Don't you face difficulties while driving the sedan car in the city? Because it’s too long? 

Luke: Not very. I am used to it. See it feels so good. Sedan car is made especially for premium comfort. That is what I like most. 

Mike: But I like SUV body style. Its ground clearance is so high that anyone can drive smoothly in the mountain and bumpy roads. 

Like: But for that, you have to pay high. 

Mike: That's why I have been saving money for a long time. 

Luke: Make sure you don't get old while saving money to buy a new car. 

Mike: No way. It won't happen at all. 

Like: Okay mike, I have reached my destination. Meet you tomorrow on the morning walk. 

Mike: Yeah. I'll be there on time. Bye.

Mike: Yeah, you know I have a friend in India, his name is Mks. One day I went to India. I stayed at his house. He strolled me to Kashi. We made plenty of Indian dishes and I enjoyed a lot his company. I also learned how to make milk tea from him. 

Luke: Interesting. I also want to go to India at once. It's a beautiful country. 

Mike: Indeed it is. By the way, do you know how to make milk tea? 

Luke: Yeah, I learnt it from YouTube. 

Mike: But you used to have coffee only I guess? 

Luke: Ya I would, but one day I was trying to make something different, so I decided to make any Indian special drink. I searched and find the most Specialty in India is Tea. So I made it as a try and from then, I have been having tea constantly. 

Mike: Wow! Sounds good. I am very interested to see you how you make the milk tea. 

Luke: See I am not a master in it, but I will try my best. Spare me if I make a bad one.

                                                                   After 5 minutes 

Mike: Hmm... Smells incredible. 5 minutes has done. Is the tea prepared? 

Luke: Hold on Luke. It's just about to be finished. Just wait 2 minutes only. Because there's one ingredient left to add. 

Mike: What's that?

Luke: Ginger. A secret ingredient of Indians which keep them active. Isn’t it? 

Mike: Oh I see, ginger. I like that. It is beneficial for health too. My Indian friend also used to ginger in tea. 

Luke: Yes. So, ginger is done and the tea has boiled enough, now it is ready to serve.
