She enters the salon and stands there, trying to remember why she entered it in the 1st place. Her mind is still on some of the eye liners she had seen in the earlier shop.
The Salon ladies are busy on their clients applying the face pack, threading, massaging the hair...
She looks back once again, and realizes she cannot go out before she finishes her work here. Some of the Salon ladies look up now, expecting her to say something. So she looks around for some help and finds what she needed...The L'Oreal Shampoo.
"I need this shampoo." She points out to a cream color bottle.
"Just the shampoo or also the conditioner?" One of the salon lady asks her.
"Wait a min." She dials the number of her friend who had asked her to get the shampoo,
" I told you I just need the shampoo, I already have the conditioner!" The friend says.
But at that very time she is looking at the different colors of the bottles in front of her, she is wondering , if she had a bit more money, which bottle she would have bought. She carelessly says a 'okay' to her friend and asks for the shampoo again, "How much is the shampoo for?"
"It's 475 ma'am, it is to be used with the conditioner for best results. Shall I give the conditioner as well?"
She is confused again. She knows very well that her friend had given her specific instructions before starting from home, then once again after she called to confirm, just seconds ago....but what were the instructions? She cannot remember.
"Wait a sec." She calls her friend again, who's busy working on some important issue at work, " What?", The friend demands.
How do I ask her the same question again? She wonders for a moment before asking, " Did you say just the shampoo or just the conditioner? or both?"
The friend wonders what's wrong with this girl? So she says, " If it's too difficult for you to remember then just come home. Don't get anything. I'll look for it myself."
"No just this last time. What do you want?"
"Get me the fucking SHAMPOO!", The friend replies, irritated and frustrated and slams down the phone. This isn't the 1st time she has behaved this way, she always seems lost somewhere.
So she pays for the fucking SHAMPOO and comes out of the salon. On her way back she remembers the Cadbury Five star Ad with the tag line "Jo khaaye, kho jaaye!" and the two friends calling out to each other again and again after every bite- "Ramesh n Suresh".
So she smiles to herself on her absent mindedness and just then the phone rings again and its her friend calling and she thinks, "Oh fuck! She had asked me to buy some shampoo!" And she turns around swiftly, making a run to the salon and picks up the call on the way, panting, "I'm just on my way to get your shampoo, wait!" and cuts the call.
And the friend on the line thinks," WTF?"
