I want to see where he takes her in this condition. Her brothers place or elsewhere where he is staying.

His place, my guess.

Nisha, weekend bonanza please

All those nosy relatives are being a pain in the behind. And Gaurav is stoking the fire.

How did he find her at the bar?

She will have one hell of a hangover. Will he take care of her?

In and out

Her crossbody strap tangled, in the hook under the bar, and the barstools, he bend down and patiently freed it

She was signaling the bartender to fill up her shot glass

“Last game boss?” he asked Pradyut boldly

“Nah… I think she is done here”

“Chill dude… just…”

“Done” he whispered in Taaruni’s ear

“Paisa kaun dega mere bhai?” the man laughed

Pradyut flung a Rs.1000 bill and added a few more, “Bill?” he asked the bartender

A small scrap was produced

“That should cover it?” he asked the bartender, who counted and smiled

“Sure man!!”

“Merab hi de de” the man teased Pradyut

He threw another bill on the table

“do you know him?” she questioned Pradyut as they wove through the crowded music blaring club

“Nope” he was cool about it… as he dragged her through the maze

“Are u sure?” “When he smiled at you I thought”

“Nope” he held it down

“WHY are u here?”

“Lav’s husband is my friend remember?” he paused to bend down and question

“OMG…. U know MY Lavanya?” she turned to look everywhere

“Yes I do”

Taaruni felt a strange sense of comfort being wrapped by his strong chest and arms

“Snug and warm” she thought

“How do u know Lavanya?” “She has never told me”

“U shud ask her… shall we leave now?” he asked patiently

“Just 5 shots, who knew 5 could take me down?”

“7 actually, 5 glasses of vodka? 2 wine?”

“No way… no f----ng way”

“Yes f----g way” he said gently pushing her toward the twin glass doors

“I told my Mum I wont be too late, mujhe ghar chhod dena please?” she slumped on the seat

Made him wonder if she bar hopped frequently

“Do u like to drink too?”

“I don’t drink alcohol” he said firmly, “U shud wear ur seat belt” he urged parked, drumming on the steering

“Ma ke ghar jaana hai na”

“We are in Delhi, I am told u got here at Noon?” a day later than our agreement”

“Did I make an agreement with you?” she asked through shut eyes

“I believe so” he sighed

“Oh well!!” she shrugged

“Wear ur belt please”

“I already have belt, I am wearing them on my jeans”

“I meant seat?” he lifted his and let it go

“Oh….”

She attempted to pull and clip in in the notch, after three tried he grabbed the edge and shoved it in the hole and started the car, her head swung side to side

“Whoooshhh!!” she looked like she was going to be sick

She clutched her throat

“This is called a raglan sleeve, it only goes around the neck and and arm… see no bodice” she pointed to her clothing

“Hmm”

“This is making me sick”

“Yep THAT’S making u sick” he nodded

“Hey do u know Lavanya?” “I came with her”

“I do”

“WE LEFT HER… OMG we left her” she screeched

“No we didn’t, she is with her husband”

“I didn’t know she was married”

“How many drinks does this to u?” he asked out loud… “One? Half?” “Half?”

She was completely wasted

“YouLIVE here?”

“You live HEREEEE?”

“Why would anyone live in a place like this?”

“I cannot… seriously… I want to go back to Ma’s” she stopped midway to the elevator

“Sorry cant… not today”

He gently pulled her in and hit the floor number on the keypad

He called his parents and declined dinner, called Veer over at 9 for work, and somehow got her up to the apartment

She yanked the raglan sleeve off viciously and fell face down on the bed. The shimmering sequined gold blouse was stunning over the pair of black jeans he noticed

She rolled on to her back her face bright red from holding her breath face down

Sitting up “Are u sure u are not gay dude?” she asked with concern

He couldn’t help but chuckle… he let a laugh out

“I am”

“I mean… I am just sayin… U can trust me”

“Oh I am sure I can” he nodded grimly staring down at her

She bolted out of bed and went to throw up luckily knowing where the bathroom was

Returning with tears in her eyes, holding her head

“I feel so sick” she whimpered

“Umm.. I have no idea what u can have… hang on”

He called friends figured out what she needed to take

Pacing her room

She threw up a couple more times and lay back down like a wet sock

“U really have to speak up, just tell me if there is someone” she said sagely

“Huh”

“Its not the end of the world… I like your Mum” she said rubbing her forehead “And ur Dad” “Both are WAYYYY better than the guy I married” she told him

“U think so”

“Have u met him?” she asked confused

Then settled down and started to sleep

He woke her at 2 AM to give her something o drink, she was no longer out of it, though her head felt like a sledge hammer was pounding it

She couldn’t even sit up,

“Hey” he muttered near her head

She sat up weakly

“I don’t feel very good”

“Do u want to go to the Doctor?”

“Oh no… u guys make a big deal” she grumbled

“U think?” he half smiled

“I mean… “ she showed him her wrist

“Yeah that”

“When did I come home?”

“Around 10? I am going to say” he sat down by her feet

“My head hurts so bad… they say hangover is next morning… its not even next morning” she looked at the bedside clock

“U want to eat?”

“Mmm..mm”

She looked like she was going to be sick

She brushed her teeth returned from the bathroom and lay back down gingerly

“Did u go to the night club?” she asked not recalling anything

“Mm…mm” “Didn’t go with u”

“I went alone?”

“With Lavanya”

Then it struck her

“I left her there”

“Shes fine”

“Tum kyon jage ho?” she asked weakly covering her eyes to hide from the moonlight

“Not sure” he sighed

“I only drank wine”

“Is that so?” he mocked

“She removed her arm and opened her eyes

“You weren’t even there, how do u know?” she accused

“I know”

“Ah… the all knowing”

“Yep”

“I cant recall anything…. How can I?” she sighed and groaned

“Water?”

“Umm?”

“water?”

She got up and went to go throw up

Pradyut wondered if the bartender had spiked her drink on the man’s insistence

Some date r—e drug?

Why would 5 shots of Vodka hurt her so much?

“If u think I am pregnant I am NOT” she said slamming her body on the bed again

“I broke up with my boyfriend months ago… selfish Taaruni Bhushan didn’t deserve Shiv” she grieved for the only nice thing she had in the last 6 months

It irritated Pradyut that there was even a possibility she could have been pregnant

She sat up furiously

“Do mujhe” she reached for the glass of juice drank it up in two seconds set the glass in the nightstand and lay down

“U stayed one day more than what is allowed”

“Shoot me”

“That would be too easy” he riled her

“To tumhe kahin jaana hai to chale jao for two weeks or a month… good punishment na” inadvertently revealing she had an expectation of seeing him

“I thought me BEING HERE was a punishment for u?” he taunted silkily

Nisha, can we have one more?
