Bells on the anklet


Was waiting for my food to arrive when the lady peddler tempts me with a whole rack of shiny trinkets .
Told me they were made in India and oh boy am I nuts about Indian costume jewellery ever since I bought some from a peddler on top of a hill in Mumbai years ago .


" 5 ringgit . 10 ringgit "
( some explosions are going off in my head but I try not to show my enthusiasm )
And then she shows me the silver ones .
" 20 ringgit "
I caved in .
