Arnav annoyed, seeing the punctured tyre. It was a remote area. None was there in that area. He looked at the surroundings whether anyone is there. Khushi got down from the car.

Khushi: I'm sorry Arnavji...

Arnav: Why are you sorry?

Khushi: Because of me, you got stuck in this village.

Arnav: Tyre can be punctured anytime. So don't blame yourself. In fact, I too thought of coming here since I came to India. So relax.

They saw a man coming by cycle. Arnav stopped him, showing his hands. The man looked at the car awe stuck.

Arnav: Is there a mechanic shop nearby?

Man(looking at the car): Yeah... it is in the village.

Arnav: How far from here?

Man: Nearly five kilometers.

Arnav: Do you have the mechanic number?

Man: No... I don't have any.

Arnav: Could you ask him to come here?

Man: Me?

He hesitated. Arnav removed five hundred rupees from his pocket and extended it to him. The man's face radiated. He snatched it from Arnav's hand.

Arnav: I will give you a thousand rupees if you bring him here.

Man: I will bring him soon.

He started riding the cycle like a racer.

Arnav leaned on the car. They have to wait until the mechanic comes. No choice. He liked the silent environment.

Arnav saw two men coming from the nearby bush. They stopped seeing Arnav. They spared a glance with each other. They approached Arnav.

Man: Any problem?

Arnav: Puncture...

Man 2: Need help?

Arnav: I have sent a man to bring a mechanic.

The men looked at themselves and smiled.

Man1: Sonu, I think he is talking about Raju Bhai.

Sonu: I hope he is not drunk.

Man1: I don't think he knows to work on TUBELESS tyre.

Sonu: You are right, Monu.

Arnav: What do you mean?

Monu: Don't your car have STEPNEY?

Arnav: Of course yes...

Monu: You can change it.

Arnav raised his eyebrows...Arnav and changing Stepney?

Sonu: Don't you know, sir?

Arnav: Actually, I had never faced such a situation.

They spared glance with one another.

Monu: We can help if you have no problem.

Arnav: Means?

Sonu: We will change the tyre.

Arnav: Could you?

Monu: Yeah... we faced such a problem before.

Arnav chuckled, nodding yes.

The men took out the Stepney from the dickey with the jack and tools. They started working. Arnav keenly watched them. They changed it in a few minutes.
