Readers

Readers everywhere will be the same.

This story is dated from some time back, when I had completed about 3 months on my job (its been 2 months now that I have quit the job and started studying and I worked for a year and 3 months on that job). The salary had started coming in and I had started indulging myself and shopped lavishly for books including ordering them online from my favourite online portal. That day I had just received a delivery at my office of a couple of books I had ordered but I hadn't been able to open the package because of the pile of work.

So on the train ride back home I was in all excitement (finally) opening the package to get to my prized new books... and the first thing I did as I usually do once the books were out of the package was to feel the cover and open and smell the pages.

The lady sitting opposite gave me a huge smile when she saw me unselfconsciously do this and said I love reading and I do the same too!

Readers everywhere will always be the same!
