Weird it is. Isn't it?
You never know what is written for you in your life.
You think you are "This" But life says "you're not 'this' but you're 'that'."
This life. It is very unpredictable.
Over caring for a person is injurious to health. For instance, it's been ages since we get to understand that the only being who deserves to be prioritised is YOU! And it's only YOU.
Sorry for being overboring.
But I feel it's needed.

"Why am I being attached to her Neha?" He asked her with anxiety striking him hard.
"Attached to whom?" Neha Said not interested looking into phone.
"It's a waste of time!" He said and moved.
Neha sidlelooked him. He was gone.

"Yeaaah! Fatty falls in love" she said and called Vikram
"Am in the first floor. Coming coming" he said.
"Guess what?" She asked
"Fatty is in love!"

At the hospital room
"You're fine papa!!" Priya exclaimed as Sudhir came out of consciousness.
"I am!" He said with a big smile.
"Sorry beta. All these expenses. I don't know how. I go jogging regularly....."
Priya didn't allow him to complete.
"I know papa. I can manage"
"Ma..."Priya called Shipra asking her to care of papa, she gave him a slight kiss on his forehead and then left the room.

She saw Neha and Vikram gossiping.
"Where is Mr. Kapoor?" She asked.
"Loveland" Neha said laughing.
Priya thought Neha had gone nuts!

She tries calling him but he wasn't answering the call. She just made a message telling "You have helped me in my exact trouble. I couldn't expect this from anybody else. Even my own didn't help me. But you did. Thanks a lot" she typed.
Then she backtyped all and freshly typed a new message.
"We knew only for some days. But you did your duty as a friend. Promising to do mine too. Thanks" she typed and sent it to Ram.

He saw the message and smiled.
"It's ok! I don't know why but..." He typed and was dropping for words
when he stopped.

"It's ok Priya. You're my friend. No sorrys and thank yous between friendship na" he typed and sent.

She got a small smile on her face again. After somewhat she saw how her father was relieved but she didn't smile.
'He's a kid at heart!' She thought.



After 1 month
"Didn't you still say that?" Neha hot fatty hard.
"Not yet!" Said Ram flushing out all his tempts.

They heard a bell at Ram's Door.
Ram went to receive.

He was delighted to see Priya and offered her to come in.
When Priya came in, she saw Neha and both of them started giggling.
When Ram smiled to himself and was about to close the door, Rajat came in.
"Hi sir!" He said.
"Hi Rajat. Welcome!" He said faking out a smile.

Neha,Vikram,Ram,Priya and Rajat were seated in a way like Neha and Vikram in one sofa,Ram and Priya in one and Rajat to the one next to Ram.

All the 5 were giggling and Neha got some snacks for them.
"Aunt is not at home!" She said indicating krishanaji.
"She like this little naughty rat at all!" Ram said indicating Neha.
"Shut up" Neha said hitting hard.
Priya smiled. It was wonderful to be with her friends.

"By the way Priya, I need to tell you something!" Ram said eagerly wanting to finish it off today.
"Alone!" He completed.
"Even we need to tell you something" she said.
"Anyway you first go ahead!" She said.
"Nope you go ahead. Ladies first." Ram said feeling proud of himself.

Priya smiled and shouted to ask Neha to come back.
"Come yaar. We'll do it later" she shouted.
Neha said "coming coming and got a huge tray of snacks and juices for them".

"Yes!" Ram exclaimed asking her to move forward with what she had to say.

She nudged Rajat to get up too.
Rajat got up.
"Here" she said giving him a card.
"Please be there for our marriage Ram. You're the bestest friend I could ever get. Am here personally so no sir." She said smiling.

Ram's heart was shattered. "What the hell was that!!!!"
But without showing any reactions and without movement he stood there.
Neha got the invitation from her.

"Thanks Priya. I think he's got BP. I'll check" she made an excuse and nudged him to move to the top floors with her.

"Why!? What happened to him?" Priya asked Vikram who stood clueless.

Had to type it very quickly. Promising the next one to be a big one.
Until then,
Love,
Joyous Miser
