"INTERESTING MUCH"

6. That night at 'High Nights'

Alya's POV

She thought for a minute n started... ...

"they... ... r weird that night. must have gone crazy or have lost it due to continuous drinking."

"What weird?" Sid asked spontaneously, jumping out of his seat.

"weird means they r talking about family, wife n children in that club party."

"we too heard that. but what's weird in that?" Cabir asked which all nodded.

"Of course it is strange. Arey!!! Who talks about wife n children standing in the club amidst of hot n sexy chicks?... seriously !"

"Why! Do every man r supposed to give u importance, even above their wife?" Manik said eying her.

"They n not just any MAN, Mister. ... ... They r Rich, Spoilt, Perverted Jerks who don't care about anyone except themselves. ... (low tone ) just like u." She said while eyeing to the eyes of Manik, with last words slowly which r not heard by anyone except Dhrualya, who r sitting close to Nanz n they looked at her with wide eyes. ...

This girl has guts. ... Looking at Manik's eye n saying those... I have to keep an eye on her...

"Okay... but what exactly they were talking that u r saying it weird." Sid asked to get the discussion on track.

"See... ... Firstly, they talked about their family means father, mother n in-laws, how they r doing, what's happening n all family drama... secondly, how many kids they have within how many years of marriage, their names too... thirdly, wives n children; wife's shopping, how they r taking their kids to school daily, what happened when they forget their anniversaries like they get burned food to eat that day, n had to give many gifts, n take them to movies to console their wives... n ya... how many they dated n partied with in spite of wives... "

"Do u think it's normal for them to talk those while partying ... " she asked looking at all of us while we were in deep thoughts...

"if u still think so, then I can't help it. that's all I know." She said to break our chain of thoughts.

"Did they exchange anything... anything?" asked Dhruv.

"Exchange... ... ya..." Hearing her we all looked at her with expectations which soon mixed with soil...

"They exchange smiles, drinks n even partners..." she said innocently while all sighed.

"No... no ... not that, Did they exchange any goods, bags, check, papers, etc." Dhruv again asked her patiently.

"No... nothing like that... ... ... ... ... they only took out cash to give tips to waiters n the dancers n girls over there, no other piece of paper."

"Cash...." Sid n cabir said while we looked at each other getting the meaning that they must have exchange deal details writing it on the notes.

"Whom all did they paid...  mean, where n who they work for, any idea?" I asked.

"Hmm... ... All r our club members... waiters, bar-tenders n the dancers...  n even the prostituting girls r known to the club manager, u can ask him." she said n I nodded.

At that time only, our maid Raju Kaka walked to us after finishing his work. He worked here for the last 7 years but we had told him to come at 10 am n return after lunch works. He asked for his payment of the month earlier as he has to get his daughter married. I took out cash from my purse n handed over him the money but he returned the extra amount I gave to him n place it on the table. ... such a nice n honest person u know. ... he finally took it after lots of insist giving us a lot of blessings...
