Just when you think you've grown up a bit Part II

On my way back from the Dalai Lama Temple:

-"Hello! Hey! Hey!" someone from behind me is calling, so naturally I make the mistake of turning around. "Hey, you know my friend? Kelsong?" It's the same guy that was at the Diwali party on my roof.

-"Yeah, I remember you two. Your friend who's soooo afraid to talk to girls?"

"Yeah. He really wants to talk to you. And I will translate. When I saw you walk by earlier, I called him and told him you were on your way to the temple. So I was waiting for you to come out. Because he wants to talk to you."

-"So you're stalking me?"

-"Yeeaah!"

Maybe, hopefully, 'stalking' is just one of those words that just doesn't quite translate. If I give it a few days, it'll all just go away. There's a big group of American students fresh out of high school just arrived in town. And it'll take about 5 minutes for my two little friends to latch on to them. Is it bad to be thinking 'Hey, it's not my problem!'? I'm sure they have chaperons anyway.
