“It takes 15 minutes on motorbike. Cost of petrol is 22 rupees. Then metro, takes half an hour. Price of ticket 20 rupees. Then, bus. 10 rupees. I can walk. But it will take longer to reach.” I thought. I also thought, “When did my thoughts get invaded by numbers? Money and time control me. And I used to think I could control them. Life is worth living. Am I still living?”

It will take one minute to read this. Wasted one more minute. Simple calculation. Numbers everywhere.
