  The decorum of the bar is exactly the way one expects. The temperature is mild with noises coming from the DJ. People are plainly throwing themselves up in the vibe of the rocking numbers played. We take our seats beside the table, above us are neatly decorated hanging glass racks.  "Now this is what a weekend looks like! Woo-hoo!", All three of us gulping the tequila shots in a row. Bollywood songs are adding a taste to the night. Banerjee soon started checking out girls with his flirty gestures. "C'mon atleast one girl would be fine for tonight. I have a great number of Durex in my pocket! Haha." Banerjee and Control are like poles apart. Getting laid is his only desire maybe, even before he die. "Go go, there's one in white dress, she seems nice! Go check her Banerjee" "K...dude mera toh waise v ho jayega... tonight am gonna find one for you!" "C'mon Banerjee, these girls are not his type reh", Mishra supports me. ...

  Hundreds of telephone calls, chit chats. Some are busy dealing with the customers, while some others making a list of the fake calls. This is everyday business, a call center job. Outsourcing from out department has been done by my group, me being the head. 24, graduated and a job. What else do one need right residing in a middle class family? But, still, life has no any plan for me, maybe! Sometimes, we just don't feel good enough with money and status. We need something, maybe a world where none can find us, far far away, spending time with silence.  "Done for the day, Kunal! Tell the rest to wind up." Chatterjee is the manager. A kind guy minding his own business. He's never into gossip discussion network during breaks, but friendly enough to recognize the employee's problem to grant a leave of a day or two. Quite helpful though, atleast to me. "Yes sir. Sir, heard about the Madrid project. Is it still on?" "Yes Kunal. Passports will be read...

  Between a chaotic surrounding where unknown faces exchange glances.The place is muddy, probably due to the mild raining.They gaze my soul with utter disgust.The males being in Black, maintaining a proper distance from me. Maybe, they are worried. As perplexity swallows me down, I start observing them more. I am afraid. I feel my palms being wet. Maybe, I am sweating because of being in this scenario where I understand nothing. Then I manage to look down at my hands. I am shocked. Instead of swear, which I assumed it have been a minute ago, are filled with blood. Yes, the blood hasn't been dried yet. A few drops are still managing to find their way to the ground. The black jeans that I have been wearing, has been filled with blood stains all over. I turn around not knowing what exactly is happening with me. But, the sight almost blew my mind. The person whom I love the most, the only one who is my life, has been lying on the ground. Still. Cold. Blood. All over. I become dumbstru...

  People say, "To achieve something we must need to do much more." It seems easy when we watch it from far, but as we approach towards that thing we see the depth. And that's quite scary.  Does the same happens to love? Is it scary too? Can we fall in love even after marriage? Maybe yes, if your spouse is a loving one, you can fall for her/him again and again. No offence! But if you happen to fall for a third person? Uhh...now it's a difficult question. What will you answer your family? Your mom and dad? Most importantly, to your spouse? What will the society say! Involving into an affair even if I am married to someone else. Some innocents might that someone might have done some black magic upon us! Haha, yeah funny right? Well, think of a situation, if the person involving in an affair realizes that he/she is a bisexual. The person might be falling in love with a same sex! - Yes, a same sex relationship! Cool na? I mean those courts ka chakkar and everything j...

  Be my brand of Heroine(drug), As I inhale your affinity. Your fondness seems like Instant relief to my cranial nerves. Be my pack of Navy Cut(cigarettes), As I take a puff of your tenderness. Your care towards me seems like Layering my chest with your love! Be my first drag of Narghile(Hookah), As I smoke up your warmth. Your constant support seems like Getting a little tipsy with your emotions. Be my shot of Magic Moments(vodka), As I gulp your lust for me. Your urge for me seems like Surrendering myself to you completely! Be my melting Schmitten(chocolate), As I lick down your lips. Your naughty smile seems like Letting me lose control on you. Be my chilled Budweiser(beer), As I take a sip of your pain. Let your tears fall upon me, In order to undo your sorrow! Will you be my Excitement? Will you be my Narcotic, And take me away from this evil world, To your Fairy Land?

  Sathvik Das A tall guy, dressed in black, with a puma cap enters the Cafe. His eyes search for Arushi, I assume. He move towards her. Rohit Kashyap is here. The way he approaches her doesn't seem fine to me. It's more like he's begging to her. They communicates for sometime. I watch from far, as Arushi directs me. Through their gestures of talking I realise Rohit haven't attacked upon Arushi, rather he's the one whose eyes filled with hope while her's filled with coldness. I receive e text from Anu. "She's not the one you are thinking her to be. Come immediately to the district Police Station nearby. I am waiting with my colleague." I panick. I know that something's fishy. But what exactly is wrong. The curious cat within me hopes that Arushi tells me everything. I want to know the truth. Should I leave Arushi with this rascal Rohit or should I go to Anu? I am really confused. I plan to go to the police station. I message her - "Ther...

  Arushi Roy Sathvik and I hurry back to my room. Anu calls me in a really horrified voice. I hope everything's all right. But she sounds urgent. Sathvik planned of giving me an ice cream treat but we have dropped the plan because of Anu. We reach my flat. Sathvik insists on coming up with me. He's worried too. I press the door bell. It takes a minute for Anu to open up. And, my body shivers as u saw her. Her face has been filled with bruises and the right cheek imprinted red all over. Seems like someone just slapped her and misbehaved her. Or maybe worse. "What the fuck happened? Tell me." "Arushi...please calm down." Sathvik sat right beside me and Anu. We both turn to her with surprise as she explains each and everything. It's all Rohit ka karnama. He arrived here asking for me. Since, he haven't found me, he threatened Anu. "Is breaking up with him last night a really dangerous step that I've taken?" Because of me, this whole dam...
