The soulmates 2

Back to square one.... part 2

At about 3 A.M., Pat sneaked into his house through the back door. He tried not make any noise while he entered, but failed to escape Ms. Noor's eyes.

'Mr. Pat, why did you enter through the back door?', she inquired.

Pat: Ssshhhh... Ms. Noor. I don't want anybody to know that I am home. Especially that someone who has come all of a sudden....

Noor: Oh, so you are trying to hide from Mr. Pran! You kids! I will never understand you!

Pat: I am not a kid, Ms. Noor! Whatever, I am just goona get some sleep now. Goodnight!

Noor: Mr. Pran was waiting for you then he fell asleep. He didn't even have dinner.

Pat: He didn't?....So what? Why would I care whether he has eaten or not?

Noor: Isn't he a close friend of yours?

Pat: Why do you ask so many questions? Anyway, just so that you never ask me again, I am telling you very clearly...He....is not my friend. Got it?

Noor: Okay, Mr. Pat. But Mr. Keith told me to call Mr. Pran when you are back. Should I?

Pat: Don't worry about that. Just go and get some sleep. You are getting old, you need rest.

Noor: Okay.

Pat went upstairs and was about to get inside his room and then he noticed that the door of the guest bedroom was partly open. He gave a quick look inside and saw that Pran was sleeping there. 'He looks so cute! Why can't I just go and kiss him? How can I be angry with someone who looks like this when he sleeps?....But when he wakes up its very different. He isn't that sweet anymore....Pat! Stop thinking all these! You can't just fall for him all over again! He was the who who had asked you to stay away....so just stay away from him.', thoughts and counter thoughts filled up Pat's mind. He then slowly walked into his room and went to bed.

'So you are finally up! Pran, c'mon let's have breakfast together', Keith said as he pulled out a chair for Pran. Pat had started eating his breakfast already, he didn't want to pay much attention to any of this. 'Thanks, P'Keith. When is your meeting from?', asked Pran.

Keith: It starts at 10.

Pran: Oh! Okay!

Keith: You know what Pran, Pat and his team are just amazing! And I am quite sure that they are gonna get us the deal today. Isn't it Pat? I am so proud of my little bro! He is doing so well and I am so lucky that I can work with him.

Pran: Well...I am proud of him too. He deserves the best.

Pat: P'Keith, please! Let's just get done with breakfast and leave for the meeting.

Keith: Okay, okay! But what's the rush? We still have time. By the way, Pran, I am going to leave for Bangkok after the meeting. So how long do you plan to stay here?

Pran felt a bit awkward at this question and he knew that it was just to make him initiate a conversation with Pat. He mumbled, 'Ummm... I don't know. Haven't decided yet. I have to talk to Pat before that. Pat, can we just talk for a bit?'. Pat didn't respond to that and pretended to not have heard anything.

Keith: Pat, I think he wants to talk to you.

Pat: P'Keith, just tell him that I don't want to talk to him. He can stay here or wherever as long as he wants, but ask him to stay away from me and anyway, I won't be here for long.

Keith: Oh, yeah! What about you Singapore trip?

Pat: I am leaving next week.

Pran: I don't wanna stay here, Pat! Just talk to me once. I am sorry for what I did...

Pat: P'Keith, can we just leave now? I really don't have time for all these.

Keith: But I am not done with breakfast yet.

Pat: Alright then! I will go and wait for you in the car.

Keith: Okay.

Pran was not used to this silent treatment from Pat. Pat usually expressed what he felt, atleast during the time when they were in a relationship. But this time he was just a different person, like someone who got his heart broken so many times by the same guy, someone who wasn't ready to take any more chances.

Pran: See, he doesn't even want to talk to me! Why the hell did I come here? P'Keith, I think I should go back with you.

Keith: Pran! I really don't think that I should give you any advice in this matter. But still, just saying... It's not easy for him... You can't just ask him to fuck off one day...and then suddenly want him to come back to you life like nothing happened. He needs time....If you really love him you must stay here and try your best to get his trust back. It's you call. You can decide...

Pran: But my music...I have so many projects pending...

Keith: All of that can wait a bit. You have got your team back there. Can't you just work from here for the time being?

Pran: But... Pat? How am I supposed to deal with his reaction?

Keith: I think you should just listen to your heart from now on. What I or Meh suggest shouldn't matter much. You two can definitely sort this out on your own...... It's time! I will have to leave now. Take care, Pran!

Pran: P'Keith...Have a safe flight and take good care of my friend. I will see you after Pat forgives me. And yes, I never stopped loving him, I never will....

Keith: Haha! So you are staying! Great! Anyway, I will take care of her. See you soon.

Keith left for office with Pat.
