The Life and Times of S

So a colleague of mine, who happens to be Indian and who moved to Canada in 2001, just like I did, came to see me at my office today.

She small-talked, which, as the few who know me know, I despise. I humoured her for a couple of minutes. She continued. Small talk, thankfully, turned into work talk pretty quickly. And then she made a joke. This joke that any other Indian would have found funny. Very funny.

But I only found it to be something typically Indian. And not funny at all.

I have always wondered if I made the right decision. But in that instant, I knew. I knew I was right. I knew.

That I didn't belong.
