Aspirations

At intermission, there was this guy in front of me at the snacks counter.. tattered t-shirt, a little overwhelmed and scared.. he managed to mumble "Coke kitna" to the guy behind the counter, and was told "95". From his pocket, he pulled out a few tenners, counted out 100, and almost ran away with the Coke, forgetting to collect the precious change...

Don't know what - just disturbed me a lot. Whether he should be at Inox watching the movie on that expensive ticket, whether he should be buying a cup of Coke for 95 bucks... I don't know, maybe not - but he had aspirations, and he paid a big price for it... somehow, didn't seem fair!
