Why don't we smile???

Gana: Why is that Indians [meaning Asian-Indians] don't smile when they look at us?? Rather, they turn their face away at the sight of another desi...

Divi: Hmmmm, may be its in the blood for people not to smile....

Divi: Do we smile at other unknown desis when we come see them???

Gana: I don't think so... But we do smile at those natives when we see them face-to-face...

Divi: It's the culture of this place to smile at even those people who you may never know, but back home we don't have such culture... So when we see a desi our culture kicks in; but we ape the culture of the natives and smile at them when we see them face-to-face...

Gana: may be that's true...
