Everytime my parents are out of town for around a week, there's time to make a memory that would be a new sticker on my refrigerator of life. The magnet was ready, so was the chit. It's great when they go out for the days that include weekends. Remember the last time, don't you? Like I said, a memory is made every time! The records that we published are still played over and over in my head and ears, and so in many others' too. The games we played all night long, and then slept with the hangovers whole next day, will always stay in our hearts as an indoor vacation that always seemed impossible. Fortunately, this time, the night of the 31st is also available for the night in at my place, and- And what? Do I need to say anything more?
Parties were being planned, arrangements were being made, nights were being scheduled. I hope to have a great week ahead.
Shreya called in the morning today. It was a shock, since we hadn't talked since around 2 months now and I wasn't expecting her call. I was worried people forgot to invite her, though she would not have come, but it feels like ditching out not even informing. And with the history that we have...
Remember Shreya? The girl I had the chance to loose my virginity to?
If not, here's the link to the memorable night to jog your memory and stuff! Come back soon.

So I was a little shaken by the call, but only until picking it up. She was cool. She had called just to check out how I was doing, last week being an anniversary of the little "situation" that we had.
"I got another project work coming up? How about we do it at your place now that it's free?" she kid around. I laughed. It's great that you can laugh at such a heart-stopping incident once the heart has started pumping again. We cracked many jokes about that night and then, caught up on our lives today. I already knew she had broken up with Pravin few weeks back from another friend. But when she told me, I acted surprised. "What the hell!" I exclaimed. "If you were gonna break up anyways, you should've done it last year itself! By now, we would have been playing with our couple of 2-months-old babies."
"Oh, really?" She laughed. "You do think you have that much power, eh?"
"Oh, baby, you have no idea what you missed," I flirted. "You'd have required hundreds of pills to control my little boys from not to fertilize the lawn."
"Oh, you wanna try now?" She asked and laughed.
She fucking knew about the promise about how I won't have sex right now even if I'm told that I'd die tomorrow. Morons! That is why I hate the regular readers of this blog. They always misuse the personal secrets of mine and taunt me.
"I'm actually too busy right now," I faked a cool accent and her laughter grew.
I love her laugh. It's not a ha-ha laugh that the girls usually do. It's a really delicate and simple giggle and keeps playing in my ear, echoing pleasantly. I haven't told her that yet, but I'm sure when she'll read this (hey, moron! Yes, I know you're reading!) her cheeks are gonna turn red and head is gonna do her typical sideways tilt with the smile. I love it when she does that.
So, she asked what was my plan for the 31st. I told her the Core group is planning a reunion and there's gonna be just a long, long, long night of T&D.
"Gonna drink?"
"Oye! I've started drinking last year, okay? I ain't a kid anymore!"
"Ooh, my bad. I forgot you had an entire glass of beer last year," she said, sarcastically.
"I've had 4 drinks this year! 2 vodkas, another beer, and a whiskey," I retorted.
"Ooh, 4? Really?" she was still sarcastic.
Well, what can I say. I am not a regular drinker. In fact, I'm not a drinker. I just try it out on social gatherings just to be casual, but there's not one drink I've tasted till now that's, you know, actually made me go high and loose control. I wanna feel that once. I wanna be with my friends, those asshole untrustworthy friends, (but hey, what's the fun if they're trustworthy, right?) and dig some stuff that will literally make me loose my mind and go wild, like some shots or - "ooh, ooh! I also had a taq shot on my birthday!" I almost forgot that. "Yeah, I remember I felt the kick, and then all's blurry. But still, it was in a social party. I couldn't do anything wild. I wanna loose myself among just one or two friends and go nuts, and hear stories in the morning from them, about the crazy shit I did."
"And you're expecting it to happen on this 31st?"
"Maybe, I don't know. I don't wanna think about it, if it does, it does. It's only fun when it's sudden and unexpected."
"Yeah, right," she continued. "If you expect the unexpected, that would make it expected, right?"
"Are you drunk right now?" I questioned, coz the only time she talked phylo like this was when she was drunk.
She laughed and continued to share stuff that happened in last few weeks. I shared my stuff.
The chat was refreshing and I felt good after it. You always feel cheered up after a long chat with a friend who had been missing out of contacts from your life for a while.
Anyways, today was the day I was supposed to book my bike. But Dad found another place where the rates were even cheaper than the place I found yesterday. And the former place was closed by the time I reached. So, it all went South today. Well, the parents left for the week though. And now, since I'm all alone tonight, I'm gonna have night calls to all those girls who had been harassing me for not talking to them when I was home.
You see, I've kept a neat impression of myself in front of my parents - A guy who doesn't talk to girls that much, never flirts, or brings them home, never smokes, never drinks, never does Page 3 parties... Whenever a girl calls (yes, some ass from you who does it purposely everytime!), I just talk business when I'm home with parents. Every girl knows this by now, that I only chat within the fixed hours during which, I specially come out after dinner and roam around the city to chat on phone. Same is for guys too. The thing is, without flirting with girls, and without using the ugliest slang in every sentence with guys, a phone call just doesn't seem appropriate and complete. Hence, the walking after dinner.
But tonight, it's payback time! I've just recharged my phone balance to 300+ bucks and it's gonna be a talkative night for all!
See ya, suckers. Or should I say, see ya bugged tonight, suckers. For smart-asses, if you just don't pick up, I ain't gonna stop there. Setting your phones on silent modes might result in land-line phone calls, which could disturb the sleeps of the entire family. And especially girls, good luck trying to explain about this psychopath to your fathers, if you're thinking about disconnecting land-lines too.
Haha.
