It was a non-conventional soiree. All present there were representatives of all walks of life. There was a boy going to defy his teens and there was a man cherishing his 80s. All chattering and flattering, it seems all are in high spirits but who knows who is pretending?????

“I don’t drink”, White denied the offer.

“But we thought you are adult”

“Yes! so what???? I don’t like to lose my wit and I even don’t like its taste and smell” White replied calmly.

“Bring some Apple Cider for the child”, someone across the table said and hilarity hit the environment.

Come on chap let us teaching you the fun of life….” The man insisting adopted was Alpha

“But we are not here to do the same; at least I am not going to do the same what I did outside, to show interest in things I don’t like….. Just for approval of all of you. Am I not right?  White frowned and asked with a high pitch of the sound, so that may everybody present there can register his point.

“And no one here is supposed to think anything about anyone here.” He slammed tonight’s gossip trend successfully.

“I don’t like ice cream” a thin feminine voice emerged from one spot of darkness. Her name on her account was Sasha Bank.

That seemed a first approval he got for his stance and the second in the thread of confessions started spilling out.

“I like Donald Trump and I agree with his concept of Nationalism” A man in grey stepped out of the ring of sofas settled at the right of his table. He looks like he is in his 60s. All know him with the name of Mr. Llama. The image maker of Politicians

Then you must be going to vote Trump in this elections, someone chuckled as he enjoyed the confession especially

No, I am not… in fact, I can’t, coz …..

His lips twitched and bridged going to be out words. They all were under pledge, not to show their special identity and not to be curious about others’.

“I am worried guys, need your help” Jupiter’s voice was deep and somehow buried in worry. White moved towards him.

“Yes go ahead we are all ears”

“My wife thinks either I am bored of her or I am cheating on her”

What? But yours is a love marriage, and it’s not been a single month yet of your marriage”

Lotus startled, she was the regular follower of Jupiter’s small love sneak peeks and attribute him as the most romantic guy in the group.

He raised his head little, saw in her eyes and replied with pain,

“ I love her but she think as I do not sleep cuddling her in night anymore so she deduced all these results” God knows I love her, but this is impracticable for me to sleep like this. I tried my best but end up at another corner of the bed each morning. I tried to explain her but she always comes with fanciful marital sleeping stories of her friends and family girls. I am afraid someday I will burst on her and our relation may get to end soon over this trivial matter.

“As all of you know I am the heiress of a rich family. I do not like music. I am unable to comprehend various types of dances and paintings.” Leaf said in a normal tone. “But I have to do all with enthusiasm to survive in my circle.”

“I don’t like adventures. I am not a party boy, I like cooking but I have to go on long tiring trips with my friends because it’s a fashion of a day” Kiddal said while shaking a cocktail shaker.

“Wow! good to hear this word fashion again, to go with a swim in my young age, I also joined a group of gypsies, latter on I started building a taste for black coffee and boring classical literature and when I got accustomed to them, trends changed, I feel outdated now but couldn’t help.”  A professor told all this with his famous wide eyes and admiring tone.

“Does anyone here know the science behind abstracts??????” someone asked from the other dark corner.

“Yes!!!!! It is the science of boasting about your ignorance in front of other ignorant.”  A heartily laughter filled the room and in real boosted their morale to be themselves and talk about most annoying inner truths of themselves.

It was the start and in the end, all returned home with light souls.

These people belong to the secret chat group named “the Omnivore Dilemmas”. They firmly believe their behaviors are learned. They all are in search of their real self and for this purpose, they arrange meetups on the last Saturdays of each month. Tonight they confessed that most of the time they fake their likes and dislikes like emotions, music, books, and movies, and art pieces they never felt, heard, read, or seen. And tonight they just lightened their souls from these inflicted standards of society, well even if only for a short time.
