Illustrate with instances from the extract that Shahid was a good practitioner of repartee.
Dear Student,
Shahid was a very social and jovial person. His sharpness at repartees was known to everyone. One incident that proves his wittiness was an encounter with a lady security guard at Barcelona airport. When the guard asked Shahid what was he doing in Spain, he said, "writing poetry." And when the lady asked if he had any objectionable item in his bag, he put his hand on his chest and answered. "Only my heart."
Hope this clears your doubts regarding this topic.
Regards
