There's this one incident that I can never ever forget.

I call it The Tale of Karma's Kebab.


It was New year's Eve 2018.

My father and I had this unsaid ritual at that time, we used to go out to buy kebabs and shawarma from our favourite place on every New year's Eve.

That year, we were going back home near 8PM, he and I were having so much fun, singing songs and laughing, he was driving the car while I was practically almost dancing sitting beside him. Our windows were closed.

There were some guys passing by our side. Two of them were on the bike and God knows how many of them were in the car.

They matched our speed and started singing songs in a very disgusting way and started passing comments.

Arrreee hamare sath bhi new year mana lo naaa janemann!

(Celebrate New year with us too darling!)

Ofcourse, like any father, my father started getting angry. But he's a sensible man, he knew that there is no use in fighting with such lunatics.

This went on for a few minutes.

It was getting a little scary, but I was calm because I had my father with me.

They were drunk and we were massively outnumbered by them. Moreover, we were almost Home.

My father increased the speed a little, they did the same. Then he smartly slowed down a bit, they were so drunk, they didn't care.

They started speeding more than anyone should in between a normal traffic, while absorbing every ounce of my invisible curse.

And BAM!

It was red light and they didn't notice. They clashed right into a scorpio. No one got hurt because of the accident.

But here comes the best part. Those guys in the scorpio were not alone, there were two more big cars full of men, who looked like WWE wrestlers.

They got out and beat the hell out of them. We were right beside them waiting for the light to turn green.

Those were one of the best 52 seconds of my life.

As my father drove, I really couldn't control my evil laugh while looking at them.


Karma was served in a silver platter.

And Kebabs were served with the mayonnaise.

Edit:

To all those people who are disappointed with me for eating kebabs with mayonnaise, I understand your pain. So, I just want to clarify that I used it only for shawarma and for a little pun.

*All the kebabs were eaten with pudina chutney. Don't try mayonnaise with kebabs at Home*
