I can’t remember much of the night when you kissed me and made me feel that it was going to last forever. However, that kiss made you top my selection list, you got straight A. The summer mosquitoes and the unfailing tangy smell of the garbage around made the young lover in us realise that we are indeed romancing in a developing country. Do you remember the way Auntyjis and Unclejis stared at us with a condescending look? Indeed, they were jealous for we were fast learners unlike them; they were born to irritate the Director with 1000 imperfect shots. But, tonight I am all alone on the bridge where you kissed me for the first time. The number of mosquitoes has increased, the smell is stronger than usual, Auntyjis and Unclejis are minding their own business, maybe they are more interested in addition than subtraction. The barking of the dog has become louder than expected; wait a minute, where did the dog come from?

a. Romance is difficult in a developing country
b. Older generations do not know what romance is.
c. The author is comparing her lost love to a barking dog.
