Our Way Back

35. Lunch date

I drive myself quickly to the cafe and surprisingly, or should I say shockingly for the 1st time in the past so many years of  our friendship those two assholes aka as my dearest bestfriends are on fucking time!

You might think I am exaggerating but no it's a big deal because it's 2.10 and I literally didn't expect them to be here till atleast 3pm!!

I walk upto them with shocked expressions, I could have put to use my drama and little over acting but considering that we are in a public place and that people out here kinda know me I refrained from doing so but I could still tease them with my words. Hehe!

"Do you plan on killing me?", I ask them with shock.

"Well if we did then I would have done that in the hospital itself when you came to visit Vishal", Rushi says as a matter of fact but ouch that was harsh!

"Well....first with the shock of being on time then now with these harsh blow of words on me, I am positive that you plan to kill me today!", I said taking a seat beside Rushi as a habit of the past.

We always sat in pairs of Vishal with Adnan and me in front of Vishal with Rushi that was our regular seating whenever we visited a restaurant or something.

"Thank you for thinking about us so highly ma'am!", Adnan said sarcastically.

I gave him a tight smile as I started looking into the menu.

"How ungrateful! Appreciate it that we actually made efforts to be here on time", Adnan said with pride.

"Firstly my dear, you're suppose to be on time always and secondly you made efforts because you need to go back on time as it is a weekend and Vishal is at home while you both are not! I am not dumb!", I said.

"So what have you ordered? I am famished guys I haven't even had my breakfast!"

"How are your shoots going on?", Rushi asked her after they placed their orders

"Very hectic....you might already know it!", I said as I know Vishal would crib and cry and then boast proudly about how much he has been working.

"Yeah obviously", Adnan said

"Yes so tell me what's up?!", I ask them curious to know why they called to meet.

"He is prying. He is looking out for smallest details. Even aunty told me few days ago that he was asking about his college friends.", Adnan told us.

"Are you like keeping your distance from him on the sets?", Rushi asked me

"Obviously I am. I can't just face him directly and I thought of discussing everything with you before we could tell him anything because all our stories should be same or it would be like Adnan tells one thing and mine seems totally different from what he told. If this happens poora raita fail jayega aur sab jalebi ban jayegi kahani!"

"Yeah yeah the food is on the way chill", Adnan tells me.

"Her habit hasn't gone yet!", Rushi says amd they both laugh at me.

"Ugh, is it so obvious or what? Even Rohit said the same thing the other day!", I said and joined in laughing with them.

"Oh yes, what about him, what's up with Rohit and you", Rushi asked at the mention of Rohit.

"Nothing is up we are cool", I tell them as they would clearly be worried about it if I told them what was cooking between out parents and what had Rohit told me.

"There is something up Advika! What is it tell you can't lie to us!", Rushi ordered me.

"Okay don't freak out, he actually just confessed that maybe he likes me more than a friend but it's fine, he said he doesn't want to force me into something.", I explain my self simple world's.

"Better!...anyways he looks like an apple",  Rushi said laughing.

"What? apple? Seriously Rushi?", I ask him raising my eyesbrows.

"Vishal is far better", he advices me.

"Stop judging", I shoot back because though I admit I still love Vishal that doesn't mean I would hear shit about Rohit.

"Can you imagine how ugly the kids of you both would be", he says laughing while Adnan joins him.

"Where is this going ugh!!!", My irritation is overseen by them as they laugh louder.

As our food arrives we dig in and stop talking for a few minutes and concentrate on our food as all of us very hungry as fuck!

"Okay so the main reason of us meeting was that Vishal is very keen to know stuff and you, respected lady, are gonna do the honours!", Adnan says pointing his fork to me and then again resuming to stuff the noodles in his mouth. I swear if I was sitting beside him I would shove that fork up his- ....leave it

"I am not doing that, anyways he trusts you people more so you are doing whatever is to be done."

"Nope!", They both say together and do a fist bump for their awesome timing. I roll my eyes at them in irritation!

Please tell me why did I come back again?!

"Be careful you're irritating me a lot today!"

"What did we do yaar", Rushi asks innocently.

"Shut up"

"Are you on your period or what, why so grumpy dude!", Adnan asks casually and I realise, oh yes I am bleeding and that's the whole fucking point why I am so grumpy, but that doesn't mean the boys are not irritating me! It's just my endurance is a little less for now.

"Yes I am, now better shut up and listen before I kill you with that fork", I say giving Adnan a death glare because I was irritated with the clanking of his fork on his plate! It was extra ordinarily loud you can't totally blame me!

"Thank you", I say as he stops with it and looks at me like silently, "so before confronting Vishal I wanted to talk to uncle aunty", I tell them.

Rushi Adnan just nod at me when I look at them for approval.

Glad that they took me seriously because they know I might actually attempt a murder here if I get furious!

"I met them in hospital that day but I want them to know all that happened. I might spare a few things here and there that they need not know and after that I'll talk to Vishal"

Rushi gently placed his hand over mine and gave it an assuring squeeze.

"They deserve to know! We told nothing and yet they never forced us tell!", He said softly.
