lunch


It was a normal school day. period, just before the lunch was vacant.  I was feeling hungry, so came out early and headed towards mess. I had food and returnig back to academic building. Lunch times had started and most students were gone for lunch. Over the gate, i found principal standing. As i was coming opposite way, he just stopped me and asked. "Kahan se aa rahe ho"?
"sir, lunch karke" ?
"kya bana hai khaane mein"?
"Roti, subji, daal aur chawal";
"daal kaunsi hai"?
This was the one difficult to answer as i could never distinguish between
pulses. I counld never identify, what pulse it is. I took a puase and then
replied,
"sir, pata nahin, mujhe jo serve hua usme, sirf pani hi tha, daal nahin."
principal fainted for a second and i took the opportunity to escape. Though unknowingly,  i had complained him of the food served in mess.
