Friendship Day!

The First Sunday of August is Friendship Day! I wanted to have good memories of this day this year but unfortunately I had a huge row over phone with the person I consider my best friend and who means the world for me! I am saying "I consider" coz I dont know whether I am best for her or not!
She was more concerned about the new person in her life!

As a topping on the fateful day, I was challaned for jumping red light. It was my fault but not entirely. The yellow light wasnt working, the timer wasnt working and it suddenly turned red and the traffic cops were not in mood to let me go, no matter whatever crap is going in the lights and timer! So as per the UP govt laws, my license was taken by them and I was handled the challana receipt. I aksed the cop that cant i pay the amount here and take back my license? He said no! Even after pleading he said the licenxe will have to be collected from SP office in Sector 6. Then I asked can I get it back on Monday then? He said "NO". Since it's UP and iot's worst managed state, I guess, so you will have to come back after 1 week! It amused me. I aksed why 1 week? Why cant you submit it tommorow and I will pay ther fine and collect it back in the evening? But he was not giving in! What kind of law or system is this??
I will never understand it, I guess!
