Me, Me, Me (55 Word Fiction)

At Bhatia ka dhaba outside IIT Roorkee, 6 AM January.

Hari: “Hey Dablo, double bun omelette. Satish, you're GRE?”
Satish: “750, 790, 790”
Hari: “Man, Harvard and Kaavya. Isn’t she your gotra?”

Dablo is quietly wiping my table clean.
Me: “Do you even go to school?”
Dablo smiles: “Kismet
Bhatia: “Hey Dablo, Jaldi. Hazaar customers.”
