What if I woke up as a ₹10 coin?
I woke up today as a ₹10 coin, which was surprisingly stressful. One minute I was sitting inside a wallet, and the next I was being thrown onto a shop counter for a packet of biscuits. Nobody even said thank you.
By afternoon, I had travelled through three hands, a bus conductor 's ticket pouch, and someone's pocket. I was dropped twice and nearly lost under a seat.
Eventually, a little child picked me up and proudly gave me to their mother.
She put me safely inside a small savings box.
For the first time all day, I wasn't being spent.
Honestly, luxury.

😭 “For the first time all day, I wasn’t being spent. Honestly, luxury.” That ending is perfect. The whole journey of the ₹10 coin is funny, but the little savings-box moment makes it unexpectedly wholesome. Sometimes even a tiny bit of security feels like luxury.
Haha this is so creative and so real at the same time! I never thought about life from a ₹10 coin's perspective but now I can't unsee it. The bus conductor's pouch, being dropped twice, almost lost under a seat - feels exactly like how a ₹10 coin lives in India. And the ending is beautiful. For the first time all day, I wasn't being spent. That line really hit. From being thrown on a counter without even a thank you to finally being kept safely in a savings box by a child. It felt like after a whole day of being used, someone finally valued you. You wrote such a stressful day in such a cute, funny way.
i loved this thought of becoming everyday objects. I once received a torn rs 10 note and asked the shopkeeper to change it. He angrily handed me a rs 10 coin and said, "ye kabhi nahi phatega". it still makes me laugh.
