This is the city I live in

We were driving back from CP last night after dinner and stopped at India Gate for that customary ice cream. There was a Honda city parked right in front of the ice cream wala. They were buying a cornetto, more like some six or seven of them. The ice cream wala was a young kid, must be sixteen or so.

The driver was screaming at him over something and kept yelling for five minutes. Then, as most Delhites do to show power, pulled out his phone and called someone. For the next five minutes someone on the phone terrorized the poor kid. Eventually, to end his ordeal he gave the Honda city dude his money back.

All this for free ice cream.
