Peeping Toms



“Eve, what is happening outside?”
“I have no idea. Though I suspect we have an Adam on the run.”

“So why has it become so noisy suddenly?”
“It’s because lot’s of Adams have noisy telescopes.”

“ Is it fun using a telescope?”
“You bet. God gave us eyes that think and a brain that sees.”


“So do you enjoy it too?”
“No. I came to the Garden because it’s the only place where telescopes have the option to have a silencer. Then, it doesn’t make any noise.”

“ So what will happen now?”
“Umm…nothing. Some people will have cerebral sex and will rush towards the cigarette store for a post coital puff.”

“Oh. The cigarette store is selling noisy telescopes. It’s a circle.”
“You got it finally. Now let me enjoy my smoke. Phew.”

Blinded


“ Where have you been Eve? I thought you died.”
“ I am sorry. I nearly did.”

“Oh! What happened?”
“ It’s a long story. But let’s just say it was the longest entry of a new year.”

“ Hmmm..ok. I won’t probe. But why are you wearing an eye patch?”
“Oh!! I am having some trouble with my sight.”

“Oh God. You should stick with me, don’t disappear from now.”
‘I know Eve. I keep stumbling into the pole when you are not around.”

“So, what’s wrong with your eye?”
“Umm…the light of this new year is very bright. I can’t see well…and it has blinded me at the moment.”

“Well..don’t worry. It happens when you step out of the dark.”
“I am not worried. Just opening my eyes slowly.”
