"How long is it going to take?"An impatient growl, travelled into the room from outside.
Radhika sighed. Dear, lord, help me in getting rid of this impossible man.
"I can't reach the zipper of the dress."She yelled finally, giving up, all her hair f...
Arjun sat on the armchair, a futuristic furniture piece which is a bean bag, a soft plush sofa chair, all in one that together gives much more comfort than a normal one does. Leaning back he stared up at the ceiling. The wide-cut glass chandelier reflected his face, he stared at himself, his face glimmered back thoughtful. One hand on the plush velvet armchair and the other hand held a drink, which left nothing in its taste to hold his interest.
"You're reflective tonight." Rohan Khanna, a friend of his, with who Arjun rarely hangs out, tilted his to the side and observed Arjun.
Arjun let his eyes travel to Rohan's stare. In the morning Neil had called him up and decided to have drinks and a chill at Rohan's condo. The word 'chilling' is something new that Neil had picked up. Arjun could swear the guy hadn't grown up since high school. Arjun had to reluctantly agree, as he couldn't shake off Neil when the latter got persistent.
Rohan and Neil go way back. The latter is almost a family to the former. Rohan Khanna was a renowned cop, but he worked mostly undercover. He was a tall, dark and dangerous fellow, a little inch taller than Arjun, about 6'1 and a buff exterior with many fierce looks, Rohan didn't cut as any less frightening in manner and appearance. He was as practical as Arjun, perhaps a bit more if you go with the unfeeling occupation that Rohan is associated with.
"It's nothing," Arjun replied, still thinking.
He saw Neil get into the room, with more drink glasses carrying in his hand. All the three were casual and laid back, effectively tired out from the hectic work of the day.
"That's never going to get an answer from him, Rohan. He needs a real stronger drink than that." Neil declared, putting the glasses on the teapoy.
He occupied himself in the chair opposite to Arjun's, and he flung back the scotch shaking his head with the effect of it.
Arjun stared back at Neil, still contemplating.

"I'm going to get married." He announced sceptically, to no one in particular.

With that Neil's head snapped to his face from his drink so fast that, Arjun wondered if he didn't break his neck. He saw Rohan straighten up in his chair, the drinking glass almost slipping out of his hand.
