Being 25 and single, I have many a times faced various questions on whether being single is my choice or do I have any 'problem'. Starting from being hit on by strangers, 'help' from a friend or 'meeting a nice guy', I was always being pushed towards a 'normal' life and to escape all of this, I landed to Bangalore.

Initially disappointed with the little night life that the city has to offer, I started going out in the city all by myself in the evenings. And in a few days I started enjoying the way you could be in a crowd yet not bothered by any strangers in the city. I could easily sit in a park or a coffee shop and enjoy the other world that the book in my hand was creating for me.

One such day when walking through lanes of the city, I spotted a coffee shop which looked different than most. Although the shop had a very unusual name 'Lost Love Cafe', I still stepped in and the place smelt funny. However I went in, placed an order for a cappuccino with a plate of french fries and took a seat. Waiting for my order, I started reading my book when I noticed strange looking guy walk into the shop and talk to the shop manager in hushed tones. I felt something might be fishy and was considering leaving the shop when my order arrived. I made a mental note of leaving soon after finishing my order and began sipping the coffee. By that time, the strange looking guy left and I felt a bit more relaxed and continued reading the book.

After a while however, I started feeling drowsy. I guessed it might be due to lack of sleep the previous night. So I got up to get some water and  suddenly everything around me was spinning. I tried to hold on to something to stay in balance and the next thing I knew was my head hit something really hard and I passed out.
