24 Bananas in da Pocket
I will tell you a story about a monkey named Farukh. Farukh had a difficult childhood due to his caretaker being extremely abusive. Once Farukh rebelled against his dad and was in a rut. His neighbour Adarshan swooped in to help him out. Ever since then, Farukh was always trying to get Adarshan's attention but it never worked out. It was always a banana here and a banana there but never enough. Not only that, one banana meant that Farukh had to pay several other cucumbers somewhere else. A few decades later, Farukh finally matured enough to figure out that there may be other monkeys in the sea. A few forests away, there lived an albino monkey named Pingpong who had all the bananas in the world. Farukh swiped right on Tinder and 'lo came 24 bananas in da pocket.
