Eternal Temptations

OK. I need opinion. So I went against good advice and made friends in office. Unfortunately, they turned out to be the super clever sorts. So, I was tagged a certain kind and the good folks judged me. And I was too happy-go-lucky to notice that…like always.

But, I see it now. Just when I begun to say no (see how it relates to my last post ;), these CCs (clever colleagues), begun to throw attitude. While I would take it earlier for the sake of friendship and also because of the apprehension of antagonizing the few people I spoke to in office, I realized what a big fool I had been all along.

Now this is as honest a confession as it gets. Yes, I became friends with you when no one considered you worth the honour. You keep talking about your bf as if he is a local hero or a community deity. See, don’t misunderstand me. This is not a bitch session in progress. I would have been equally irritated had a boy friend behaved like this with me.

You did not become part of my joy. Instead, you gossiped about me behind my back. You sniggered when others asked me about the celebration.

Just because you rub shoulders with some biggies, you believe in renting a penthouse in the air. Please do. Just be careful. When you step out, the fall may be pretty steep.

For all that I care, live in your little pink paradise happily. It does not take long for any bubble to burst.
