CHAPTER 2: WHAT THE FUDGE?!!!!!!!

Sunday, June 23, 2013 By , , 12 comments

The plan for ‘saving our asses from the Board exams’, which we called as ‘Beat the Boards’, was in progress!


‘Hey let’s just cut this crap for some time and have a walk till the washroom’, Prakhar beckoned!

It is always in a friend circle that even if one has to go pissing, everyone else instantly generates an urge to piddle!

So, we headed to the toilet bantering all the way through! Finally, we were there but the place seemed quiet new to us, contradicting the fact that we have been pissing there for the last 6 years!

Hey guys, when did the management get so many cabins for us?, Palash asked surprisingly!
‘We have no idea about it man’, Prakhar and I replied in unison, equally astounded to see the clean walls with no remarks for the teachers on it!
Well, it is a disgrace to the boys’ toilet if you don’t find hybrid abuses incorrectly written for several teachers, love confessions and remarkable drawings of human body parts, some unmentionable ones!

‘Oh wait! On which floor are we?’,I asked worriedly!

‘I guess, it’s the 2nd floor’, Prakhar replied!

After an awkward silence, I shouted,’ WHAT THE FUDGE! WE ARE IN A GIRL’S TOILET!!!!! GET THE ASS OUT OF HERE!!!’, and we ran towards the exit!

As soon as we came out of the toilet, a maid rushed towards us with a ‘what-the-f@%k’ expression and asked with suspicion, ‘What you guys were doing in there?!!!’

‘N… No.. Nothing at all. We forgot’! I instantly replied back being a hell lot nervous thinking about the consequences!

‘WHAT!!! You guys forgot your gender!!!!!’, she fired right away!

‘Aunty, we are sorry for the trouble but we just forgot that we were on the 2nd floor and went inside the girls’ toilet’, Prakhar told her!

‘Plus, there was no girl inside the toilet’, I added, thinking this might save us from the ruthless consequences!

‘Let’s go to the principal’, she said and asked us to form a line and start moving towards the ‘room-of-death’!

We started moving slower than a snail or perhaps Internet Explorer! We were petrified, terrified and every –ied that would describe fear!

There are times in life when you really don’t understand what to do next! And, it was one such moment, even worse but I gave a last try to save us from the upcoming problems.

‘Aunty, do you know who we are’, I asked her!

‘No’, she replied!

As soon as she replied, I murmured,‘Guys, run’, and we ran like Osain Bolt.
Trust me, have it been the Olympics, surely we would have achieved a Bronze medal at the least!

All of this shit happened because of the architect of the school. A boys’ toilet which was on the right on the 1st floor was on the left on the 2nd floor and vice-versa for the Girls’ toilet! And since we were so busy pulling each other’s leg that we didn’t notice we were on the 2nd floor and got in the wrong toilet!

‘Gosh, Ain’t pissing anymore in this school’, Prakhar said breathing heavily!

‘Same here’!

‘It was a lucky escape man, plus, we were fortunate that there wasn’t any girl inside otherwise we would have been dead by now’, I said thoughtfully!

‘Han yaar’!

‘But, what if she makes a search in every class’, Palash asked anxiously!

‘Don’t worry about it dude! It’s the last lecture going on, so even if they make a search then it is practically impossible for them to seek in every class! Plus, we would be staying in the canteen until the dispersal bell rings! Moreover, the upcoming 2 days are off for us so the possibilities for any unfortunate thing to happen reduces to almost zero! And, most importantly, the issue isn’t that big. We were undoubtedly very lucky that there wasn’t any girl inside plus the maid doesn’t know our names! And possibly, she might also forget our faces in the days to come-by, so relax!’, I said with confidence and felt like Sherlock Holmes for a few secs! Really!

‘You are one goddamn genius dude’, Prakhar said and patted on my back!

After that we all laughed at the entire happening over and over again discussing every possibility and passing silly jokes in between until the break-bell rang! 

Sitting in the bus we just prayed for the things to turn right at the time to come as we, or I should say, I can’t hold the waste-water for so long! :P

CHAPTER 1: BEAT THE BOARDS

Thursday, May 09, 2013 By , , 2 comments


There are always certain things which are common between you and your friends and my case is not an exception to it of course :P

Palash, Prakhar and me (Paresh) were friends since we found out the common factor of ‘procrastination’ in us. Moreover, we screwed up results together, bunked classes together and the most usual, always went united to washroom :D (NOTE: We weren’t gay of course).

It was the maths lecture going on and we 3 were yawing in the best way possible!  :P

Sometimes I really wondered why did we choose maths, especially me; when I really know nothing about it. Well, it is a part and parcel of life to make mistakes. (Yes! Taking Maths is a mistake if you don’t feel like solving it :P )

Anyway, the Board exams were coming in and the tension was building up! So, we made a plan to pass the boards :P (With 1 month in hand, a below average student can’t aim above just passing! Accept it! Reality me jeena seekho :D )

‘We are going to screw it man’, Palash said in a cheeky way!

‘Of course dude, we will screw it big time’, I replied! :D

Mission ‘Beat the Boards’ was initialized and we three were on it!

(Will the mission be accomplished? :P Find out in the upcoming posts )

Screwed-up

Sunday, November 25, 2012 By , , , 12 comments


Meghna was my dream girl when I was in 5th. Average height, charming looks and a pretty face were sufficient for my heart to get driven by her. Well, this might sound funny but I used to wait at the cycle stand each day to have a glance of her! Of course a cycle stand because we weren’t in a school of Karan Johar’s film :P 


Anyway, she left the city 2 years after 5th; unaware about my ‘dewanapan’ :P

I had no clue where she went but ever after that time I just wished to somehow get in contact with her and luckily the almighty took a notice over my demand! A mutual friend of ours got us in contact. Surprisingly, she still remembered that old Abhi i.e. me :P

Frankly, I went crazy getting back in contact again after 4 years of time! Felt like something good was happening in my life. But, as it is said that, ‘nothing remains the same’, so, obviously, my happiness wouldn’t have contradicted the quote! Precisely, I screwed up big time!

Now, before I tell you how I did that ironically awesome mistake, note it down, ‘Never ever reveal your feelings to a girl too early. First, be her friend, then her good friend, then her bestie and probably when you think that you finally understand her which I’m sure will be a wrong assumption, tell your feelings’. It won’t guarantee a success but at least your ass will be safe to be kicked until next time :D :P

Heading to my screwed up story… I told her the crush thing childhood wali like a retard expecting some positive result. But, as unexpected, things turned out to be like the filet-o-fish of McDonalds i.e. sucking (No offense for filet-o-fish lovers :P) and consequently, it ended up the contact.

I hope, you won’t let your craziness shit over your desires :P

In the end, a word of wisdom, always keep patience and you will do great  :)

FAMILIAR STRANGERS

Wednesday, May 16, 2012 By , , 10 comments


The place was sucking me to the core that day. Although, it doesn’t mean that the same didn’t happen before but you know…the ‘break-up’ effect was invincible.

My angel was sitting in the 3rd bench and me at the last, as usual. For the whole 7 and ½ hours of torture, she didn’t turn even once to notice what I was doing! It was really infuriating as well as depressing, as, this thing never happened in the past 3 years! L

The next few days went the same. 
Finally, Dhruv aka ‘Chole’ noticed the strange happenings and came to enquire about it.

I said,’ We had a break-up 5 days ago’.

He was astounded which was obvious.

But Den, how did it happen? , he asked.

‘We met at CCD where she asked me to be just friends from then onward. I tried getting a genuine sensible reason in vain. Apologized for some uncountable times, though I wasn’t wrong, but everything was over-looked and unheard’. L

What!!! But…how can she do this to you??? , asked ‘Chole’ with this ‘O.o’ kind of expression.

‘She doesn’t love me anymore. The charm has gone according to her and possibly we can just be mates now’, I replied sadly L

So, what now? Are you satisfied being just ‘Friends’?

‘NO. But, if she is happy, I’m happy. But, also I know, we neither can be friends nor enemies because there was love somewhere someday involved’, I contemplatively replied.

So, what you both will be? , he asked restlessly.

‘We will be Familiar Strangers’ L

Butter Chicken called me. . .

Monday, December 26, 2011 By , , 8 comments


“The butter chicken is utterly delicious dude. Thanks for the treat,” I said to Parikshit, my mate, dwelling at another chicken piece.


I had skipped my college bus that day and travelled with Parikshit in his rickety, yet spacious bus. I even bluffed my parents saying that, ‘I would be coming home late, as I’ve travelled with my mate till his accommodation because the college bus got punctured.’

If I would have confronted the ‘treat’ thing, instantly my roasted form would have got prepared on the phone itself, as, my parents are strictly against eating out, except on special occasion.

Until we could finish up the stuff, my dad called me thrice. And every time I responded that, ‘I’ll be back in 20 mins.’ We then, quickly paid the bill & went back to his place. From there I left after 10mins, as, it was really getting late. Secondly, my dad had started to sound more serious on phone.

On the bus stop, my dad was standing with, you-are-gone expression.
I sat behind him on the vehicle. He, as already expected, interrogated regarding the current happenings. I continued with my former-set lies. But his reply was a sucker punch which intimidated me completely. I was thoroughly astounded.
He said, ‘We have probed out all the details. Your college bus was never punctured. All your other bus mates have already reached 2 hrs before.’

I then kept silent. The death seemed nearer. The delicious butter chicken seemed mocking upon me, jeering, ‘Aur khale saale’. Pictures of my mom, holding an active bomb to throw upon me, beckoned!

I reached back home and the rebuke-giving-tape, born-fixed within mom automatically played.

I stealthily left the place with an, I’m-sorry expression.

After changing, I came back in the drawing-cum-judgment hall, where sat the two parents-cum-judges & me- the culprit.

‘You have always disgraced us, Anuvin…,’started my dad.
What!!! What have I done now? Just skipped some hours of reaching back home from college & ate a tasty butter chicken, that’s it! Obviously, the hen wasn't our neighbor’s pet! How then I disgraced you? I asked willingly within.

‘He has done something cheesy today. I can bet. Else, why would he go faking a story?’ added my mom.
C’mon now! Carry out a polygraph test right here right now. Moreover, it was the butter chicken who called me. And, who the hell non-vegetarian would deny its call? I responded within.

‘Always since childhood he has remained back from his mates’, said my dad.
Hello dad! Wake up please. I agree my mate ate a piece extra of the delicious chicken but I promise, next time I will dominate him. But your history-concerned statement is entirely wrong. I’ve the legal proofs available, I said assertively to myself, just because, if you are a culprit, then, you are entitled to listen to fake allegations put on you by your parents; being from an Indian family.

I then, finally, realized that my parents have unearthed the grave-in matters of the past; all untrue and ridiculous! So I kept my focus upon the newspaper, containing Manmohan ji’s ‘I-wanna-do-potty-immediately’, expression. Thereafter I left for my room.

There, I again sat contemplating of my doings of that day. I didn’t regret the damn delicious butter chicken, but, my lie. Anyway, ‘the die was cast’. So, Consequently, I decided to take a short nap to reactivate my brain to carry-out my studies. As, this is the ultimate, universally famous master-key to unlock the door of anguish built within one’s parent’s mind.

Anyway, the day was digested & perhaps the butter chicken too. I craved sleep, so slept without much adieu.

Time is Money

Sunday, September 04, 2011 By , , 4 comments

I was sitting at the bus stop. Usually, there is nothing above boredom that one experiences sitting alone. But hallelujah, I got something to watch at.

There were 2 tea vendors, right across the road, just opposite to me. Their stands were marked 1 & 2, respectively. Every basic thing needed to run a 'small income-making' tea shop was matching. Just the 1 thing that made the difference were the presence of customers at the two spots.

The stall holder possessing stall marked 1 had more customers than his opponent. He was a South Indian by looks. And, as everyone know, they are born intelligent or I think so. But, this time, it was something above the 'God- gifted-intelligence'.

I then started dwelling, contemplating what so unique that South Indian guy was doing, as he possessed more customers; In spite of the fact both vendors had everything same on their stalls. Clearly, there was a difference in the method of selling.

Finally, the curiosity within, brought me to the stall. I asked for a 'cut-chai' and stealthily watched his moves. And, 10 secs after the order, the so-called 'cut-chai' was in my hand, 'cutting my nerves out of bafflement'!

Wow! So quick. Amazing! The words echoed again and again within me. Anyway, apart from the awesome tea, I also received something of my genuine concern.

The south Indian guy had 2 containers. He filled one with a hot mixture of tea leaves, sugar, water and a bit of ginger. And, another one with warm milk. So, just he needed to pour-in the requisite mixtures to prepare a tea, once an order was placed.

He was utilizing the time judiciously to generate bucks. Undoubtedly, he was turning 'time into money'. And, this is what is needed today, the most. Every great entrepreneur has used their time efficiently to build-up billions. So, if anyone envy of them, then, the proper and prudent usage of available sources is a must.

Me and Mr. Mind

Tuesday, May 31, 2011 By , 4 comments


Night at two, a sound came through.


It was my 'Mind' for the first time,
wanted to confess,
the reasons, 'why i was so depressed'.
My 'Heart' contradicted. But i consoled it.
As because of it, i suffered misery
and was pissed !

I listened carefully for the first time,
a heart-changing rhymn;
said,'i was trapped in an unpleasant solitary,
tamed and run by the emotional heart'.
It kept saying and i heard keenly.
Words pierced my soul cleanly..

I was changing slowly but effectively.
"Fella, you 've been lying on the beds of piffle.
You need yourself to refill",said my mind.
Within some minutes being so kind,
it refrained, refuted and remedied my soul.

And then said i,
'Aah! thanks Mr. Mind, good that you rebuked my heart.
Your invisible, invinsible and invigorate words
've infusd something new in this struggler.'
My heart was wicked,
it maimed me completely, i agree.
And now, i am exultant and gratefull
for how you cautioned me, so greatly.
The moment seemed like a fable or a night-dream,
which turned an 'introvert' to an 'extrovert' like me !!!
