Well, who doesn't like Surprises right? ;-)

“So where were we? Tomatoes right?” He asked looking here and there and she held his jaw before making her face him.

“Seriously?”

“Why will I even joke about all these?” He asked and she smiled faintly at first, then widely and finally burst out laughing making him confused altogether.

“That idiot didn't believe me when I said God will give me the perfect one. What was her dialogue. Oh Anika, in the century, no man is pure. Have your fun when you have time blah blah blah blah” She blabbered and he looked weirdly at her.

“Who?” He managed to ask.

“Nitya. That world class idiot, one of my friends” She told flipping her hair backwards in the manner of victory.

“Can you explain? I don't understand” He told and she turned to him before shrugging.

“Nothing for you to understand. It was a bet” She told with a smile before pulling his cheeks from both sides happily.

He held her wrist and rubbed his cheek with a horrified face thinking of possibilities of a woman going mad without obvious or particular reasons.

“According to Nitya, definition of men in this generation was, species who goes for late night parties, drinks, smokes, uses weeds and opium and hooks up with every single woman he dates” She told as she air quoted specifics and he looked shocked at her.

“Fhat the wuck!” He shouted and she looked confused at him.

“You mean what the——”

“The same! Who is this friend of yours? I want to meet her” He told and she shrugged.

“She's in Mumbai. When we go to Mumbai next time, I'll make you meet her. Now listen, Taking this as an excuse, she had all kinds of fun without any guilt. So once, she asked me to join her for some drinks. I refused because I don't drink. She made me sit with her and tried to brainwash me for half an hour straight but I'm Anika. Nobody can brainwash me” She told raising her collars at the end and he rolled his eyes.

“She told you men wants just a body for pleasure” He concluded and she nodded.

“So I told her to look at my dad and mom. She told that's because they're people of old generation. Today's generation doesn't have any values as such” Shivaay was about to protest when she kept her finger on his lips.

“Listen to me first. I told her, my shivji won't forget me like that. He'll give me someone perfect. She argued saying no one is perfect. I agree no one is perfect but I didn't say I want a Mr perfect. I told I want the one who is perfect for me. So finally after a lot of argument I told in a challenging tone that I'll show her someone like that someday. Someone who can break her beliefs about men. Doesn't matter if he's mine or not, I'll show her someone like that. I told it in the heat of the moment because even I know there won't be anyone like that. Shivji took that challenge personally I guess” She told with a smile as she looked away.

“Give some credit to me also. Don't give everything to your Shivji” He told and she chuckled.

“Why? Are you jealous of my shivji?” She asked in a teasing voice and he shrugged.

(A/N: I got question some days back: who is this Shivji? Shivji is the God Anika worships. Mahadev/Lord Shiva (or Siva) is one of the most important gods in the Hindu Patheon and, along with Brahma and Vishnu is considered a member of the holy trinity (trimurti) of Hinduism - it's the definition from Google *sheepish smile*)
