Only You.....Just You.....

Chapter 14: The Party

It was dark all around, I was sitting alone in the balcony. Suddenly the moon waged against the clouds and sent off the ugly face of the darkness to the prison. But the darkness was more like the politicians my country. The darkness appoints its men, the clouds, to get over the moon. The
mood is tied to its duty. No matter what the darkness does to the world, the moon is not allowed to walk faster than its speed.

I was busy thinking all this, while Alisha came suddenly and startled me.

She started laughing and sat on my lap as there was no other chair in the balcony. Actually, it was the only chair I had other than the sofa and the dining chairs. She said, "What are we doing tonight?"
The expressions of my face turned nasty. She said, "Don't be ambitious, I am not talking about sex."
"Then what do you think we should do tonight?" I asked in a casual voice.
"Have you installed your mind in your pants? What did you mean? We do a lot more things rather than ... what you just said." she said pretending to be angry.

"So why don't you introduce me to those activities," I said teasing her.
"I've got a plan for tonight," she said with excitement on her face.
I had no reaction. She gazed at me. Still, I had nothing on my face. I said, "I am listening."
"Fuck you...! so much of attitude," she said and got up to leave.
I held her hand and pulled back in my lap and said, "I was just teasing you. Come tell me about your plan."
She gazed at my face and then said, "I was thinking we can go out for dinner and then a late-night movie would be fun."
With a nasty smile on my face, I said, "And desert...?"
With a hot and nasty expression on her face, leaning on my body she said,
"Desert will be served at home, after the movie."

All these plans were being made, when suddenly her phone rang. She stood up and went to the hall and got her phone. While talking on the phone she came back and took her seat on my lap again, as if it was a chair. She was busy on the phone and I was gazing at her. I said, "This is not a chair."

She grinned but didn't comment on the statement, as she was busy on then phone. Eventually, the call was hung and Alisha was all mine now. She said,
"This is my chair now. And most likely to be my favourite one. Do you have a problem with that?"
"No, ma'am..." I replied with a smile like SRK.
"Good... okay listen, there is a slight change in plan. We are going to my friend's party." she said.

I got annoyed and said, "But we were going for dinner and movie."
"Who said we aren't going?" she said. I was tangled. "We are going to my friend's place for dinner and then we will move to the movie." Alisha improvised the plan.
"Hmm...Not bad..." I said.
She got up and walked to the hall saying, "It's already eight. We've got to leave now because it's going to take at least two hours at Suman's place."
"Who is Suman?"
"The host of the party, my friend. Now stop bothering and get ready quickly," she said while entering the bedroom.
"How can I change, when you have locked the door?" I mumbled.
She came out after ten minutes and annoyingly said, "You haven't dressed up yet."

She was busy putting a bangle in her hand but it wasn't going easily. She was getting more annoyed. I went closer to her, held her hand and with the other hand put the bangle in her hand. I said, "Relax, we are not late."
She grinned and said, "Fine, just go get ready soon."

I went inside and was changing my pant when she came in. While wearing, I asked, "Do we men have some rights for our privacy."
"No...," she said coming closer to my face and then went back to the mirror. I was ready and was waiting for her. I was sitting in the living room and was exploring through the channels on TV, just to pass my time. She came and turned the TV off and stood in front of it. She said, "Why aren't you ready yet?"
I looked at myself and said, "I am ready. I was waiting for you."
"Are you sure you want to wear this for the party?" she said grimacing her face.

I was wearing denim jeans and a casual black shirt over it. I said, "What is so bad in these clothes?"
"What is good about them?" She said. "I don't want my friends to make fun of you, and that too for your clothes."
She pulled me to the bedroom, opened the rack and selected another shirt for me. I tried the shirt, but she didn't like it. I took another shirt, but she didn't like it either. Then the third one, fourth, fifth and countless more. In the end, she said, "I think the first one was the best. All you need is a jacket over it."

"No ... I will not wear any jacket, otherwise, I am not going anywhere." I sounded like a ten years old boy fighting with his mother for wearing those new clothes, which he was about to wear at his birthday party.

Alisha started laughing. I understood, what was that for. She then told me to come out and lock the door. I took the keys of the car and moved out.

Alisha locked the main door and followed me. Eventually, I was driving to the party and that too wearing those clothes, which I wanted to. Alisha was sitting beside me and was checking something on the phone. I asked, "Where is the party tonight?"
"On the dance floor," she replied promptly.
"Hahaha... it was not funny Alisha. Tell me where is the party?" I asked seriously.
"I am not joking either. 'On the dance floor' is a club, where the party must have been organized." Alisha said casually.
"What do you mean by 'must be'? Didn't she tell you about the venue?" I asked as I smelled the foul dish.
"Aaaa... actually, all the previous parties were held at that place so I didn't bother asking the venue," she said hesitating.
Trying to be normal I said, "Alisha... Please call your friend... and ask her about the venue."
She dialled Suman's number instantly, but her phone was not reachable. I said, "I think we should go to her house."
"That will be the biggest mistake. I know she organizes all her parties at the club, then why should we go to see her locked house." Alisha replied.

I obeyed her and took the directions of the club. Alisha said, "You know Raj, I wish all the girls have an obedient and loving boyfriend like you."
I replied, "I am not sure about 'loving' but, all the boyfriends are obedient. And those who are not, they are dogs, always tied to the dog's collar, whose control lies in the hands of the girl. You know, they say all man are dogs. This statement is cent per cent true. After all, they keep on shaking their tails before their woman."
Alisha grimaced and said, "Not fair..."
We had reached the club. I took the car to the parking lot and asked her to call her friend. She dialled Suman's number and while it was being connected, she said, "Do you remember what happened last time we were in the parking like this?"

My reply was a smile. I was actually feeling that we had arrived at the wrong place. Alisha was pretending as if the call was ringing. I said, "You are a very bad actor. Just stop pretending. I know her phone is not
reachable."
"So, what, she must be busy at her party. Hosting is not an easy job." She said and stepped out of the car. I too followed her. We were standing in front of the club. I asked, "What are you waiting for?"
"Nothing..." she replied.

I caught her hand and took her inside the club. I asked at the counter if there was some party going on inside, hosted by Suman. They attendee clearly refused. He said, "It used to happen here sir but today there is no such party here."
I turned my head with anger, she tried to shrink out of the club, but I held her hand and pulled her back. I said, "I had told you not to come here right."

Making a cute baby face, she said, "I am sorry" and caught her ears.
"This is not done. Every time you do this and then make such cute baby face and get out of all the mess in just a sorry." I said and turned around.
She embraced me from my back and said, "Let's ditch the party, I am famished, let's go for dinner then a movie and then the desert will be waiting for you at home."

I melted. I turned back. I was making failed attempts at hiding my nasty smile. But it didn't go long. She tickled me once on my stomach and the fake expression were thrown out of the face.
