She looked at herself in the mirror and it seemed to her, as though it was broken . Why! She wondered, but not for too long. She had to get going as it was time for her to get going.
Being pure at heart is tough, she thought. Why was she doing it anyway, she wondered. What did she have with all the purity and sweetness.. The unending complexities of having to stick to her vow of self abstinence and still manage the desires!
Life had not been very good to her. Or so she thought. She even thought that it was probably just her thought . And life being good to someone is so relative afterall.
As she proceeded, she looked back once. She immediately thought, she shouldn't have. But she had looked back. Looking back also meant looking for the lost love. It wasn't love really, she told herself. It was an arrangement . An arrangment for convenience . But what isn't ? Is love which is not convenient possible ? Flourishable ? She had to move on.
She noticed that her hair was not made properly and that her clothes were fading . She needed new shoes. She had to book her tickets..

Interesting post. I like your subtle expressions and the eager willingness to mislead people.
Here is what I am reading:
1. This post is about just one person.
2. Her convenient love is narcissism and her arrangement is a ritual of looking good.
3. She has a moment of introspection, a moment when she felt her ritual had no greater purpose, but the moment passed.
I would sure love to know how others read this post.
BTW "Silicon India", sounds like something Pamela Anderson outsourced here.
