Colourless

He was born blind. Never felt how colours are. Today, though, he was very curious about colours and wanted to feel something. To quench his curiosity he said to himself, let's buy a few shirts.

At the shop, he asked for a yellow shirt. The shopkeeper handed over a yellow shirt. He could not feel the colour but instead, he argued that it's not yellow. The shopkeeper felt bad for him and gave him a red shirt just to be sure that he is blind. He still could not feel it either so rather he bought it.

Since he was still curious, he went to some other shop and asked for a yellow shirt again. The shopkeeper thought of ridding himself of the red shirt, he was unable to sell thinking he won't notice. As earlier, he said it isn't yellow. The shopkeeper was taken aback, so rather gave him a yellow shirt thinking he somehow can see and he bought it.
