Something is Brewing

Chapter 4...

Brew heaven café, Kolkata

As Anirudh walked inside the glass doors he was hit with the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. Coffee always seemed to relax him. He couldn't imagine how he would survive if coffee never existed. Although Anirudh was relaxed now after a peaceful sleep this morning, he also felt suspicious. Why all of a sudden Sourabh called him here? Did he find a solution? So quickly! Not to mention the fact that Sourabh only called him in a café, when he knew Anirudh might lose his calm. Coffee always alleviated Anirudh's reactions. Something was definitely going to go wrong today.

"Oh Anirudh! Here!" Sourabh called his name from across the room while waving his right hand like an excited child.

Oh god why was he so embarrassing. Anirudh quickly went towards the booth Sourabh was sitting in, before anyone else could witness Sourabh's weird gesticulations. "why did you call me here?" Anirudh said while settling himself down on the couch in front of Sourabh.

" Before I tell you that, promise me you wont erupt on me like a volcano." Sourabh asked.

" Even if I did, you wouldn't mind. I always do that. Didn't you get habituated to it?" Anirudh replied casually.

" If we were alone, I wouldn't mind. But I cant embarrass myself infront of Bondita ji." Sourabh said.

" WHAT!!" Anirudh yelled, then taking a note of his surroundings he lowered his voice " What! Why did you call her? What does she has to do with this!! I thought that you called me because you found some solution to my problem!!"

" I said I will find a solution for our problem. And I did." Seeing Anirudh's confused face expression Sourabh continued " I will explain everything to you once Bondita ji comes here."

" Oh and here she comes" Sourabh said looking towards his left. Anirudh's eyes turned towards his right and met Bondita's. Unfortunately their eye contact only remained for a slight second before breaking. This was enough to send one of those charges of static electricity through their body, like the previous night. Anirudh turned towards Sourabh only to find him doing his weird hand gestures. Not infront of her!!

" Hi!" Bondita greeted them with her pleasant smile. While Sourabh replied to her greeting, Anirudh just simply smiled at her. Soon her smile was exchanged by a confused. They were sitting in a café booth with a table in the center and two couches on either sides. Sourabh had occupied one side and Anirudh was on the other. Bondita stood awkwardly between them. Where to sit ?! Before Anirudh could shift to Sourabh's side like a gentleman, Sourabh gestured his hand towards Anirudh's side and said

" Bondita ji aap uss side beth jaiye. I need to face both of you so I can talk."

Bondita politely settled herself beside Anirudh with a decent distance between them. Anirudh frowned at Sourabh which he beautifully ignored. Why does he wanna talk while facing them?! It was all confusing since Anirudh came here to get rid of his marriage with Saudamini, what does Bondita have to to with this? While Bondita also thought the same. She came here because Sourabh had called her last night and asked her to come here to find a way to get out of this forced marriage situation. What does Anirudh Roy Chowdhry have to do with that?!

" So...."

Bondita was perplexed as she stepped out of the huge glass doors of the luxurious café. That was the weirdest proposal (offer) she had ever heard. She doesn't know which narcotic Sourabh was on while thinking this, but he surely was on something because what he was saying was insane!! She just knew one thing, she wasn't going to say yes to this uncanny idea. It felt like she was living in one of those cringe and cliché Indian dramas. Today's day went in vain. Tomorrow is her ashirbad! oh shit! she need to figure out something fast. Reflecting back on Sourabh's words, the idea wasn't that bad but how can she do that? There surely must be some other way. She absent mindedly sat in her car and started it. BANG!! She heard a car hit the back of her car. Oh for fuck's sake!
