Love in the times of inflation
Characters:
Tiku: A one-rupee coin
Piku: A five-rupee coin
Miku: A twenty-rupee note
Location: Pinku's piggy bank
Mood: Tiku, Piku and Miku were a bit sad today. Here is their
conversation while lying together in Pinku’s piggy bank.
Tiku: Why are you both looking so sad?
Piku: I’m not sad.
Miku: You are, its so obvious from your face.
Tiku: And so are you! Look at your long face.
Piku: That’s how RBI designed him.
Miku: Shut up!
Tiku: Okay, so why are we all sad today?
Piku: Because we will be lying here forever in this
piggy-bank and Pinku will never use us!
Miku: Yes! We have lost all value! In today’s world, you can
buy nothing with twenty rupees!
Tiku: Then think about me! I am a one-rupee coin!!
Piku: Soon we will be extinct like dinosaurs!
Miku: I feel like crying.
Tiku: Don’t cry buddies, if somebody adds us together, we’re
twenty six rupees. :(
Piku: Yeah, that’s also nothing. You can’t even buy the
pocket of a pair of jeans with twenty six rupees.
Miku: But you know what, in the time of sales and bargain,
we may be enough to buy some stuff still.
Tiku: Nah!
Piku: No, he has a point! Maybe not just by ourselves but we’ll
be equivalent to more money that normal times!
Tiku: Hmmmm, okay, I see your point. Then maybe Pinku may
use us to buy something…
Miku: Exactly! So we just need to wait for the time when
coupons are announced and Pinku decided to use us to buy his school supplies!
Piku: But we will all separate from each other then! I’ll
miss you guys! :'(
Miku: Awww, that’s true!
Tiku: No, wait!! These days there is this new concept called
cashback at the time of shopping! Maybe after Pinku uses us to buy his school
supplies during a bargain, he will get us all back as cashback?!
Piku: That will be amazing!
Miku: Yeah, we will all be together forever! <3>3>
