Common Man and Change

This is an experience of a common man who wanted a change. Now, this change is not that change which everybody wanted to see in this world but a change of two thousand rupee note, five hundred rupee note or sometimes hundred rupee note.

Every day, as per our profession or routine we encounter this situation. Sometimes, we have change but sometimes (Those odd days) we don’t. I know you are thinking that this is an era of digital payment why you are talking about liquid money and change. So, think why?

Wait, I will answer you. Have you read the title attentively….

“COMMON MAN”

Now, this common man can be of any age as I have not mentioned the age. One day he went to a mall which was behind his home to buy a product whose price was less than hundred now when he checked his wallet it had a single five hundred rupee note after collecting all his strength knowing that asking for a change is a big deal he went to buy that product as it was an emergency and he wanted it as soon as possible.

He entered the mall with a confused state that whether I will get a change or not. He went to that particular section of the mall he grabbed the product which he wanted to buy. Then, he started walking towards billing counter waiting for his chance standing behind a huge line.

After, fifteen to twenty minutes he got his chance for billing then suddenly the guy who was billing at that counter saw five hundred rupee note and a small product of rupees forty or fifty in his hand Sir, change to nahi hai was his words that man went into a thought of sadness I also don’t have the change bhaiya…

This ordinary man has checked his wallet again he got his card in one of the pockets of his shirt with a relief in his breath he told that guy at counter take this card again that guy with a sarcastic tone this time Arey, sir I can only take it on a purchase of hundred rupees or more.

Someone from the line behind this common man started shouting do the billing fast we are also standing in line.

This common man took his product from the counter and went back to mall thinking in mind what should I do now I wanted this product I cannot let it go it is important for me. He went back and bought some more product which was an extra expense for him although he did not want to buy that many products but just to make the products cost more or equal to hundred he bought them and in the end paid through that card.

After, leaving the mall again occupied with a thought why there is a limit or why not a change of his five hundred rupee note?

Common Man, who will never forget this incidence slept that night having that five hundred rupee note in his hand with an expression of who will take you from me or you have a mood to stay with me?
