"8.35... on time" thought the man in a black shirt with random math equation sketched all over standing at medical store with big name plate "Saraswati medical store" .
The storekeeper comes & placed a packet of cat food in front of man in white shirt, he picks up & looks at packets label then he asks.
"do you have paper plate by any chance"
the storekeeper replies, "no we don't, do you want anything else"
men getting wallet from his pocket says "no, how much is this?"
"120rs", the store keeper replied
man then gets money out from pocket, hands the money to storekeeper & says "thank you"
the man then starts walking down the footpath. after some walking he stops.
*splash*
Bird poop drop little ahead of the man, if the man had not stopped it would have sucked to be him.
man starts walking again, now he is walking on besides the rail track he looks at ahead there is old lady alone with some stuff having difficulty getting up the stairs to cross rail track, he offers to help "Aaji, should i help you go up the stares" the old lady replies "thanks but don't worry, i am waiting for my grandson. he is there in the store"
"oh! okey, then i will be on my way" then the man started walking up the stairs to cross rail track.
When he was walking down the stairs man looked up toward the old lady was with young boy in teens getting up the stairs.
he continued to walk & then come in ally with one side made of concrete wall & other side made up from steel sheets use for construction work.
The man opens up bag & shuffles a little then pulls a notebook out from his bag & started slowing down, he tore a page from note book & stopped near gap in the steel sheet wall & he bend down put the torn paper near gap & pulled out the packet of cat food from his pocket, opened it & poured it onto paper.
A kitten came out of the gap smelled what the man poured & started to eat it. the man smiled a little & started to mumble,
"i was going to feed you while returning.. you are lucky, that i go-. oh shiiii"
suddenly more kitten popped out from the gap & started butting there head into the paper. man hastily ripped more paper from the book, put them down while separating kitten & cat food but it was clear that this was too little for all of them. Now an adult black cat then come out of nowhere & started to lick torn paper but unfortunately the kittens had already finished the cat food.
the black cat & kitten had started eating the paper, seeing this man then quickly grabbed all the paper, crumpled into a ball & put it in his pocket. The black cat still trying to eat the paper started to frantically smelling the hands of the man as to check if its safe to eat, he tried to scratch the cats neck but cat insistently tried to bite the mans hand, tho he had quickly pulled his hand back.
then the man placed his hand near the adult cat where she can see it. After a moment the adult cat came near the hand & smelled it bit then started rubbing on hand.
The man then slowly started scratching the adult cat. After a while of scratching man spoke "sorry bud, it was too little.if possible i will bring some more food while returning or maybe tomorrow" man continued to scratch for a while then said "Okey, time has come now i have to go"

Man stood up & started walking
After walking for 5 minutes, he stops outside of building
looked at digital watch on his left wrist & thought
"Its 8.52... just 10 min late? this should be fine a lot could happen in 10 minute."
He sighs, Then entered building. After checking in with security he starts walks in hallway,the man sees lift & stairs at the end of hallway & thins
"Lets try elevator this time-"
Just to find the lift had paper on it which reads
Lift is closed
Lift is under maintenance. it will be closed till 19/08.
He checks the phone it shows 18/08 & thinks
"Its late there might be someone else who came by now But lets be focused"
the man closes his eyes, then takes deep breaths in silence, then a thought comes to his mind
"Maybe i should call Pooja to check where she is."
He unlocks the phone goes into contact, selects *Pooja (office)* & clicks call. while doing that he starts walking towards stairs & stops before taking first step.
*tring tring*
"Last time i made it till second floor" the man spoke in his head
*tring tring, click*
"hello" spoke the person on call
"Hi Pooja, its me Arjun, Where are you right now?" replied the man & started walking up the stairs
"I will be at office in 5 min"
"Okey, but like where are you right now, location-wise?"
"Way?"
"I wanted to check something, did you cross the Matunga circle?"
"Ya a little while ago."
"Oh... Can you just tell me where are you right now,
I just crossed the Manish Naka."
"Oh then, leave it. I will go there after the work my self"
"what did you want?"
"nothing i just wanted to confirm if there was a store there by the road, anyway see you at work"
"Okey"
*Beep*
then Arjun thinks as he puts the phone in his pocket
"So its going to take at least 10 min her to reach hear."
then he sees in front that there was 3 written on the wall "Hmm when did i crossed the second floor? i guess i am sa-"
*dhup*
"Meow.. meeeow, meow, meow"
Arjun was holding plates in both of his hand. "Meeeeeeooooww"
He sees two kitten near his feet, a white one & a orange one.
"Oh!" Arjun flinched & quickly bend down to put the plate in his hand in front of the kitten
Then he got up & looked high toward a tall shelf little bit ahead of him & the kittens.
there are two plates similar to the one he was holding just now, He reaches toward the top shelf & grabbed the plates.
Then he turnes back & sees a orange cat with spots on a bed & puts one plate near its feet.
Then he puts second plate near the feet of Other cat sitting on floor who is orange but larger then all other cats.
Now he moves to the place where he can see all four cats standing up.
Now he looks up at watch & thinks
"7.56, still have 20 min before i leave, now what did i do last time?"
