Desk

 

"People are not commodities but they are indeed consumerists" he thought. When the water cascades hit the bottom of the glass, another thought sheltered in his head and he brooded over something he read in the recent past: "In the end all those promising people become the most treacherous ones."

.

.

.

The glass overflowed and moistened the wooden desk.

.

.

.

Previous morning:

.

.

.

"Sir, this is the best wooden material we have so far in our stock and the most reliable piece you can have in your home. I can promise you its longevity. "

.

.

.

"I know you all smarty-pants, how you hold yourself from broaching the serious shortcomings of your pieces. Anyways I'll buy this one."

.

.

.

After few days the moistened spot widened and in two weeks the desk top was unrecognizable.

.

Next month the same thought lingered in his head while he sat on the desk,"People are not commodities and the promising ones are the most treacherous ones."

.

.

.

The desk cracked from the middle and he fell flat on his floor.

.

.

.

He laughed!!
