So on account of New Year’s Eve I decided to buy weed from my cook and smoke it.

I have never ground weed before so I prepared it in my friends house and went to smoke it over in a shady lane. Here in my country I know the shady allies where it’s dark with no cop. I have openly smoked before. As soon as we lit the blunt a cop bike entered our lane and cornered us. Two of your friends (who weren’t smoking ran off) and my bestfriend and I got caught.

Our pockets were immediately seized and my efforts to throw my joint went in vail. The cop took the weed and called for backup. They smelt the joint and knew it was weed. We went Pale.

Honestly, something about this whole incident thrilled me. We were questioned about our background and where we lived. I have been caught on a station without ticket and I ran away (very thrilling) so I did think of running away. But they had our phones. After taking our phone we were made to wait OUTSIDE the police station little away. We weren’t allowed to go in. They asked us to call our father’s. My friends father has won an Oscar and and my father is the head of a prominent airline. I tried speaking to the cop in our local language(marathi) but he wouldn’t budge. He asked us to pay cash.

I called up my elder brother and my friend called his father who luckily didn’t pick up. My brother said he would come immediately. The cops wanted cash. Meanwhile the two friends who ran away, one came to up with ₹2600 ($31). The cops said they wanted somewhere around ₹4000 ($48.34). It’s very obvious that they would split this money between them.

They said they weren’t taking us inside the station because then an FIR (First information report) would be filed and we would have to pay a court fee and stuff. My friend who came tried talking to the cops but to no avail. K tried buttering the cops but nothing would happen.

My brother arrived and spoke to them. I do not know what he said because the cops suddenly started smiling and became sweet to us. They even returned us our joints and stash.

Tldr: smoked in public and got my cops but my brother let us go
