My recycle bin has a dungeon of versions piled up, finally I am back from Vanvaas, and here's the update.

Third Person's PoV :



"231?? Seriouslyy?" a loud shriek left his mouth.

"Calm down"

"To the hell with your calm down, I am grinding my ass on this stupid thing for the past 60 minutes and all I lost is my precious 60 minutes?" cried Kunal.

"And 231 calories too" shrugged Raghu.

Grabbing Raghu's shoulder fiercely, Kunal looked into his eyes sharply, "Tell me Raghu, tell me, what is in here for you? Money? Assets or Girls? What is it that is promised to you that you are putting me through this horrendous torture?"

"Your fat and Armaan's fear of you venturing into the unhealthy obesity" Raghu who is clearly versed with extremes of Kunal spared no glance at Kunal's emotional outburst.

"Do you know what is important for a human to live?"

"Oxygen?" Raghu raised a brow.

"Yeah for all of you, but not for Bengalis. For our living, sweets are the most important factor. Bhappa Doi, Rossogulla, Malai Chom Chom, Raj Bhog..." Kunal sang a list of Bengali Sweets he had to give up.

"What is the of living Raghu? You tell me why I work soo hard and earn money? To starve on the feed of that stupid shit Avocado and Broccoli?"

"Work what? Hard?" coughed Rishi who was hearing all conversation with one ear.

Kunal threw him a mind your business look and Raghu quickly tried to shift Kunal's attention knowing the strained relationship between Rishi and Kunal since a month.

"We will have a cheat day this Sunday and I will give you an exception to consume 1500 calories of sweets, only if you will have Apple Cider Vinegar for the rest of the days" Raghu chirped.

Kunal's mind was quick to fly in the land of endless sweets and quickly gave his word, not sparing a thought about the hard work he has to put in for the rest of the days.

While surfing in the la la land of sweets, the sudden buzz of his loud ringtone brought him back to the world.

A shriek louder than his ringtone which almost turned him deaf roared in his ears as soon as he picked up the call.

"Wait.. wait, is that a frustrated groan? Maan? Is it the same you? Do you get frustrated too? Tell me what it is"

Laughing aloud, Kunal sang "Being with Tripthi and not getting into any problem is weird, being in problem is like pretty natural, just as Sun rising in the East"

Kunal's eyes focused on Rishi who dropped the weight bar from his hand hearing his conversation.

"You got a what??...." Kunal shrieked, ardently shocked.

His facial expressions did no good to Rishi.

"Damn you Maan... finally after all these years... that too from Tripthi" his voice carried a tinge of squeal and lots of tease.

Laughing aloud, Kunal walked out clearly knowing that he bubbled up the waves of curiosity along with trepidation in Rishi.

As predicted, Rishi couldn't focus on the workout, walking away he stood by the water section. He observed Kunal giggling and guffawing throughout the call, he badly wanted to know what it is all about.
