A Proud Nepali in Gulf

It was not a normal schedule; I love to wake up late atleast in weekends and holidays. But there was something that forces me to visit Doha's National area (named after a huge National Panasonic showroom) early in the morning is to get live and fresh ‘local’ chicken sold in that area only (now that area have a vast development project and most of the shops have already been shifted to another location).

It was 6:50 in the morning when we started from AlSadd to National (hardly a ten minutes’ drive). We just parked nearby a ‘Bengali’ tea shop for a 'Kadak Chai’. Normally people out of home don't have luck to sip boiled tea everyday. At dwelling we used of boil water put a spoon or two (varies as per the taste) spoon sugar and dip a tea bag in it, that’s called 'Sulaimaani', but actually i don't like tea, it’s easy to prepare coffee, just mix one spoon 'Nescafé' two spoon sugar add hot water and it’s ready. But the ‘Kadak Chai’ they used to boil in Indo-Asian traditional method, first to boil water alone than to add milk and boil, than to add tea and boil again upto it get the real brownie colour. As it take more time to fix it really have a taste which we cannot miss the chance to have a cup when around.

We ordered for two cup of tea, and slipped in butchery beside, luckily found a good looking ‘Bhale’, ordered to pack but unfortunately there was a queue of orders, they promise us to fix it in 20-25 minute. OK, lets move around, tea was ready and fixed in disposable cup, so it is easy to walk around and enjoy ‘Kadak chai’ together.

Hardly by my tenth step ahead, I found a compatriot sitting down in the pavement, well dressed but seems exhausted, with a can of ‘soft drink’ in his hand. Later analysed his unstable suspicious movements and found he is ‘down’ boozed. Why I was surprised, it is hardly 7:15 in the morning, we need something hot to comfort our throat but the scene was different. Not all compatriot have same behaviour  at all, but one should have to think about their representation of four hundred thousand compatriot living in the same region.

Though, a bad weekend.
