'That's too big', she said, with rounded eyes.
'Try it', he said, with a smile, 'and you wont regret it'.
'But its too much for me. What can I possibly do with one that big?', she asked in anguish, as if its been shoved down her throat.
'Its not always that you will come across one this big', he said, obscenely caressing and fondling it as he spoke. The woman seemed rivetted. It was as if she was hypnotised by the size and texture of it. And sure enough, as if in a daze, she reached out and grasped it and pulled it towards herself.
'How much?', she asked, as she bent down and with a long, deep breath inhaled its fragrance.
'For you, 12 rupees a kg', the sabziwala said, wrapping up the cucumber in a take away pack.
And the spell broke.
