Five times sweeter


‘Five stalls? So sweet, yaar’!
Sheriff is thrilled. A garment workshop from the city has just offered to put five stalls up at the festival. He thinks it’s a smooth deal. 

Kaptaan doesn’t quite see the picture.

‘Arrey, what sweet? He wants to make money, as much as he can. He’ll obviously want enough space. What’s so sweet about that’?

‘I don’t know. What did you tell him’?
He looks a little glum does Sheriff. It is very typical of him to speak fondly of strangers, even people he hasn’t yet met.

‘I told him he can have three at most. We have 17 in total, right? All of them can’t have garments’.

‘Poor guy, man’.
Sheriff is distraught. He wishes well for the whole world. Kaptaan thinks of offering another explanation but gives up in between.

There's no point talking business with an angel.
