32. Diya's Confession

"Ok I will wear a skirt and top, no makeup will do right? " Diya asked me while checking herself in the mirror.
"I can't believe that you are going to propose that idiot" I said.
"Oh come on Sanju I am not gonna ask him to marry me or anything, I am just going to confess my feelings for him"
"Still... I am warning you, drop the plan or else you are going to regret this for the rest of your life"  Nathasha said.
"For the first time I agree with Nadu, there is nothing more embarrassing for a girl than getting rejected on the face,  you know how people will judge you if he rejectes"  Sanju said.
"So what's the plan? " Lali asked she knew my words had no effect on Diya.
"I haven't thought of anything yet, any suggestions? "  Diya asked.
"Ya don't do it" I said.
"Any other suggestions? " Diya asked rolling her eyes.
"Are you sure about this Diya? "Lali asked.
"More than anything" Diya said with confidence.
"Ok make sure not to make this situation too weird" Lali said.
"She is proposing to that idiot can this get any more weird?" I asked.
"I can't watch this Aisha please put some sense into this girl" Nathasha said.
"Hmm.... Best of luck" Aisha said.
Everyone laughed except Natasha.
"Is it me or have this Aisha became more dumb after coming back from home after her sisters wedding? "  Lali asked.

Lali and I was sitting in the canteen when Sid came over to us.
"Hey Lali?" He said.
"What do you want Sid?" She asked.
"You looked pissed off" He said.
"Cut the crap and come to the point, what do you want? " Lali said.
"English project" Sid said.
"Fuck off"
"Please yar Lali, I don't understand a thing" Sid said.
"Sid you always remember about my existence when you need something that's not gonna work from now"
"So you want me to spend time with you without any reason?" Sid asked scratching his head.
"No I want you to fuck off and leave me alone"
I laughed out loud.
"Hey guys" Diya who just came there said.
"Hello Sid" She added after sitting down.
"Hey" Sid said with least enthusiasm.
"Guys... Varuns new movie is playing at the nearby theatre let's go and watch" Diya suggested.
“That’s strange bollywood movies never play nearby” Lali said.
"Oh Varun Dhawan I really love that guy let's go I am in" Sid said Exited.
"Who the hell invited you?" I asked and Diya kicked my leg from under the table.
"Let him come, he stays here and stalks girls anyways" Lali said.
"I will ask Natasha and Aisha" I said and took my phone out.
"Ok cool message me the time" Sid said getting up.
"OK" Lali said.
"Oh Lali the project..." Sid said.
"I will get it tomorrow" she said in a dull voice.
"You are awesome yar" Sid said side hugging her.
"Now get lost before I slap you" She said, Sid smiled and walked away.
"I don't understand why we have to take that duff with us” I said.
“We are not taking him with us Diya is” Lali said.
“Then how will I watch the movie?” I asked.
“Oh we won’t, not today”
“Oh come on I wanna see the movie it’s Varun Dhawan”
“I want Diya to have some alone time with him so that she can get over with the proposal”
“Aww....thanks Lali” Diya said.
“But what about VD?” I asked.
“We can go tomorrow” Lali said.
“Great I will get my proposal ready” Diya said exited as she stood up and walked away.

After class we were chilling at our house, Lali was writing Sid’s project while Diya was out on a movie date with him.
“Lali yar, let me write it come on” Natasha said.
“No I will write it and that’s final” Lali said.
“Jeez I can’t believe you guys are fighting over who will write Sid’s project” I said.
“I can’t believe we skipped a Varun Dhawan movie for Sidart Tiwari, I mean who the hell will skip a Varun Dhawan movie, and skipping Varun Dhawan movies should be illegal” Aisha said.
“Oh come on, you skipped Badlapur” Lali said.
“He was scary” Aisha said.
“He was fine, you were just a scary cat” I said.
“Oh no he was scary, didn’t you see that scene.......” Natasha said.
“Which scene?” Aisha asked.
“That rape scene?” Lali asked.
“He raped someone that’s so not like Varun” Aisha said.
“Oh come on it’s just a movie” I said.
“It wasn’t rape, she was....u know” Natasha said.
“Yes, she was a prostitute, but rape is rape he clearly forced himself on her” Lali said.
Suddenly Diya entered. She looked devastated. She ran towards Lali and hugged her and cried. We all understood what happened.

“Un fucking believable, I am going to kill that asshole” I said giving Diya a hot coffee after she composed herself.
“He should actually feel lucky that he was getting a great girl like Diya” Aisha said.
“Did he actually say that you were too short?” Natasha said.
“Hmmmm” Diya said sniffing.
Natasha stood up and checked her height.
“Oh come on short people are cute” Lali said.
“Like Varun Dhawan?” I asked.
“Exactly like Varun Dhawan” Lali said.
“Didn’t you just say he raped someone?” Aisha asked.
“WHAT!” Diya asked shocked.
“In BADLAPUR” Lali shouted.
“Oh god, you scared me, come on I just got rejected, and the last thing I wanna hear is something bad about Varun” Diya said.
“Hey, maybe Varun’s movie will cheer you up” Lali said.
“But I just saw one” Diya said.
“So?” I asked.
“Ya, stupid excuse put it on” Diya said.
I stood up to get the laptop.
“Hey, if you want you can tear up Sid’s project” Lali offered.
“No give it to him” Diya said.
I sat on the bed with the laptop on my lap as all of them snuggled close to me to watch the movie.
