She (Mrunmayee Lagoo) has posters of Jim Morrison and Bob Marley on her walls: rather belated icons for someone her age. She stuffs her drawer with Kama Sutra condoms, and keeps her room locked from parents. During the day, she goes out shoplifting, when not discussing men. The fakeness of cool fries your brains up. On a random night-out ā āCan we go to the disc tonight?ā ā a stranger offers her a drink. She gulps it down. On another night at a club, upset with her friends, she meets the same fellow again ā āCome on, we shall have a nice drink! Letās danceā¦ Just relax. Just take a chill pill.ā She snorts coke, gets hammered; few days later, even moves out of her parentsā.
