lost!!

it was Saturday.having spent most of my day playing mortal combat and finally loosing at the 16th level, i switched off my computer. already my eyes were dry as all the water from it drained by the glowing screen.
i wore my favorite torn jeans and a tee and ventured into the bright street.it was unnaturally natural because i remained in my room for two days with the same shorts and the only source of fresh air was when the maid opened the door to clean.i thought to watch a movie from a cd from the local cd shop.
so i walked slowly to the parking and looked at my bike.it was quite dusty.i searched for a cloth but couldn't find one and i was proud that i thought of cleaning.surprisingly it started at the first kick and i was driving till the end of my lane when i saw a girl on a scooty going in the opposite direction.i went a little ahead and stopped.
now it was unusual to see a good looking girl in my area whom i don't know...and secondly... she seemed to smile at me.i dunno whether she smiled...smiled at me or smiled generally.so i got to find out the truth.
i turned and followed her.it was not my normal speed but tried to go slow and also maintain some distance from her.she turned right,so did i.then another one.i was a bit exited because she looked cute even from far,her hair flying with the wind.bu t also nervous as i don't know this place much.
then after many turns and by lanes i was still behind her.suddenly i saw an ice cream parlor. i thought " i dint know there was an ice cream parlor here.it looks good.should try once".
the i saw straight.
panic!! she was missing.i increased my speed and came to a place where there is are right and left turns.i analyzed that she took more right turns than left.so i took right and went a little ahead.no trace of her...more panic.i came back and took left but no sign of her.
i officially realized i had lost her and should go home. i cant remember the way back nor can i recognize this place. the place was silent and there is no traffic to blindly follow to the main road.
now no panic.....only fear.i did what i had to , ask someone.
i saw a guy wearing formal dress with a file in his hand.i asked him about my place.he said "i don't know,i just know the number of my bus".so i went ahead to ask anyone who really knows the place and spotted an auto driver . when asked he said" go straight and turn left,then go straight. you will see a cafe named 'blue ribbon' ".
i said" ok so where from there?".
he answered " ask anyone there".
i did as he had advised and saw few people discussing something and got disturbed by me. still they gave me directions to the main road which had 2 lefts,one right and a u-turn.the path went through a slum avoiding people sleeping on the road and children running behind. finally i reached it but was shocked to see it was 5 km from my home.
i came almost home when my bike finished the petrol. i walked along with the bike half a km and reached my home exhausted.
somebody called from back, i turned.shit its the same girl.i looked shocked.she asked " hi, im new to this place, do you know if there is an cyber cafe around here".
i gave her the directions and asked about her.in 5 min we were talking about our college and stuff.then she asked me what i did from morning. i told her " just roaming the place you kno,, for fun".
