Short Paragraph:A Scene at A Busy Restaurant

A Scene At A Busy Restaurant

                          I pushed through the crowds of young people hovering outside the automatic doors at Burger King. The lovers of food trickled into the restaurant at about 2.00p.m. At the door itself the aroma of greasy and fatty burgers greeted one’s nose, promising a whole range of pleasures and a fully belly. Two smartly dressed waiters welcomed me with a toothy smile. In addition to the warm welcome, the haunting melodies reverberated in the perimeter of the restaurant in order to bid the eager eaters welcome. Orders were taken feverishly and then shouted across to the kitchen. Excitement reigned as waiters ran hither and thither to fill the orders.

A Scene At A Departmental Store

                    It was eight O’clock in the morning, the first streak of daylight brought with a fresh glimmer of excitement as January sales began. It was a mad rush to get ready as my sisters were busy preparing and making up before starting their spending-spree at the newly opened shopping mall and they had vowed to buy a lot of new branded clothes to pamper themselves. Obviously, they were prepared to “shop until they drop”. The air of excitement already filled the air as we casted our feet into the shopping complex. To our surprise, the crowd becomes more boisterous and it was made up of a myriad of characters. Everywhere groups of teenagers with multi-coloured spiky hair walked about from stall to stall. They were obviously window-shopping. There were pairs of housewives who were chiefly concerned with price. They could be seen making enquiries about prices and bargaining for better prices. The queues at the counters were extremely massive. It was about 12p.m in the afternoon, but the crowd had not dwindled yet. As we were totally exhausted, we headed towards a long bench waiting for the crowd to cease.
