Raj and Trisha - Coffee with Compliments - Part 18

 Raj and Trisha watched the movie drinking their coffee slowly. The movie was punctuated by their conversation and comments on the movie scenes. Both had watched the movie before and loved it, so much so that they repeated some of the dialogues for fun in imitation of the actors' voices. Raj realised that Trisha was really talented at mimicry. 

He asked her whether she had considered mimicry and acting as an alternate line of work. 

"Yes. I had. I am good at it since childhood and also a movie buff. Sometime during college, I was quite serious about it. Was in theatrics and did many plays in different events. I was an aspiring actress. But then I had a shitty experience and left it for good - I think" said Trisha. It was the first time they talked about their pasts or lives, for that matter. Raj could kind of guess what 'Shitty experience' meant and he didnt press her for further details. Although she was open, Raj realised that if she herself didnt talk about it, it certainly meant something rather painful for her. 

"Well....with talent like that and those killer looks.....you wouldve done well I guess....But anyway, still I wouldnt have met you, if you were that famous !!" Raj said finishing off lightly. He really felt that she should be an actress and at the same time, didnt mean to sensitize her by forcing her to recall 'painful' memories. Therefore he finished off with the typical Raj jovial style. 

Trisha smiled. "Thanks for those compliments. Shall I make coffee?" 

"If I wanted coffee, I wouldnt have flattered you for it. I wouldve made it myself. I really meant what I said." said Raj. 

"Hahaha.....no its not like that - I want to make us another round." said Trisha laughing. 

"Ok. But please dont put any sugar at all" said Raj seriously. 

"Why? Ill put only a little bit. I know you diet and all with those huge shoulders and taut biceps" Trisha said winking at him. 

"Hahaha...." Raj laughed, blushing at the hidden compliment. "Dont put any sugar, because whatever you make will obviously be very sweet." Raj added. 

Trisha made a face. "Not only do you crack bad jokes. You even pass bad lines like the one you just said. We were having so much fun complimenting each other and then this shitty line made it a mess. Like a movie with a good first half and a fucked up last half " said Trisha in mock annoyance. 

"Hahaha....nice comparison .....talking about sweet .....come here....I want to lick you...you sweet thing." Raj said laughing and pretending to catch her with both hands.

"Eeeewwww......" said Trisha and ran to the kitchen quickly. 

It started raining outside and the weather turned very chilly - pune type chilly. It was now 12 AM. Trisha brought two cups of coffee outside and Raj unpaused the movie. They quickly drank the hot coffee this time. 

The window was open and a cold wind was blowing. Trisha was shivering in those clothes. Raj went inside and returned with a blanket. Without Trisha noticing, he unfolded the blanket and with gentle hands wrapped her from behind and tucked the blanket on one side of her. He sat on the couch and then placed his hand around her and pulled her closer. Trisha automatically placed the back of her head on his chest and sighed gently, feeling warmth in his embrace. Raj was beaming now, feeling happy. He planted a gentle kiss on the top of her head, smelling her rose-fragrant hair, his chin brushing the soft wool like texture of it. Both of them closed their eyes and fell asleep on the couch - Raj resting his head on the back cushion of the sofa and Trisha resting hers on his chest still.      

          

Raj and Trisha - A pleasant conversation - Part 17.

 Raj turned on the TV and Trisha came back to the living room in tracks and T-shirt again. 

"Here, take the remote, Ill make us some night time coffee, ok naa?" said Raj. 

"Sure." said Trisha. Raj went inside to make coffee. Trisha, after surfing through a few channels, switched off the TV and went inside to the kitchen where Raj was warming the milk. 

"Hey....nothing on TV?" Raj asked. 

"No, nothing interesting. Just thought, I'd come here and make you watch making coffee" Trisha replied. 

"What's there to watch in that? Or you wanted to watch ME?" Raj asked smirking. 

"Why do you think so greatly of yourself? So much self-pride.....wanted to watch me and all" Trisha said, imitating Raj so perfectly, he clapped.

"You know how amazing that was?" asked Raj admiringly and gazed into her eyes. Trisha gazed right back, playing with her hair, bringing her tresses forward and then back again. Raj asked her to pass the sugar container which was in the cabinet behind where she was standing. Trisha turned, then deliberately brought her hair forward, exposing her neck and then reached on her tiptoes and pulled the container out. She took her time to turn towards him, as if almost expecting him to press his body  against her on the cabinet. Raj was just looking at her head to toe, taking in every bit - her hair which shone against the kitchen light, every strand even, smooth, shiny tightly pulled forward exposing her marble like fair neck. The T-shirt which Raj had given her was rather big for her, so the neckline of the shirt fell deep on both sides. 

Trisha handed him the container. They gazed again for a moment, then Raj turned back to his coffee making. When it was ready, Raj carried both cups in the living room and kept it on the teapoy. 

"Should I put on the news?" Raj asked after surfing through almost all channels on his pack. 

"Huh?? Let us discuss office matters, ok?" Trisha asked through raised eyebrows, sarcastically. 

"Ok." Raj said with a straight face. 

"Are you joking or you are stupid enough to take me seriously?" Trisha asked her eyebrows going so high now, they were close to falling off her face. 

"Hahaha....no I was just joking." Raj laughed. 

"Are all your jokes bad? Everytime? Just put on some downloaded movie on the laptop or something" Trisha suggested. 

"Blue or normal one?" Raj asked. 

Trisha picked it up quickly. "We can make a blue one by ourselves so a normal one would do please." Trisha said with a straight face. 

"I meant a blue-ray movie...." Raj said. 

"Like hell you meant that way....." Trisha said dismissively.  

Raj laughed. He was enjoying his time with Trisha. She was smart, quick witted and there was'nt a dull moment with her. Apart from her enchanting beauty, she had responded to his questions just like any other friend (boys), picking up hints, hidden questions and double meanings quickly. She spoke freely and frankly about any topic. She was as satirical as him in her sense of humor. 

She could be very good company as a friend - with added benefits, of course - he realised. 

Raj opened his laptop and cast 'Saving private ryan' from his laptop to the TV. He blew a flying kiss to Trisha smiling at his thoughts, and said automatically, "I love you, Trisha." He said it jokingly, but he didnt know whether the truth had come out or he really had cracked a joke !!

Trisha looked at him for a fraction of second longer and said, "Yeah, I love you too......" she paused and then continued, ".............for putting this movie. I absolutely love it !!" smiling at him, meaningfully. 
She too was having confused thoughts.      

 

        

    

 

    

  

Raj and Trisha - Stay back please - Part 16

 They ordered dinner home. In the meantime, Raj had changed into tracks and t shirt (home clothes.). 

"Great. Now you are comfortable. What about me?" Trisha asked. 

"You can take off your clothes. Be comfortable." Raj said with a straight face. 

"Oh, you perv....Its ok, let it be" Trisha said amused. 

"Im sorry, it was just a joke. Actually, if you want, I can give you a pair of track pants and T-shirt just like mine." Raj said with a smile.  

"Ummm...ok...." Trisha said after thinking for a moment. Trisha followed Raj into the room.  

Raj gave her the clothes and just stood there looking at her. 

"What? Off you go. Let me change." Trisha said. Raj laughed and went off. 

Trisha came out and found that Raj had fixed plates on the dining table and had opened cartons and placed spoons in them.

"You'll make a great husband." Trisha said, biting off a piece of veg 'gold coin' that they had ordered. 

"Are you proposing me?" Raj asked her. 

"Can consider. What all can you cook?" Trisha asked laughing. 

"That should be my question." Raj said with a straight face. 

"Women's lib is a strong concept these days" Trisha said. 

"Well, I cant cook, I can only eat." Raj said in a sarcastic tone.

They finished dinner and then Trisha said, "I should probably be off now......" 

Something in her tone made Raj infer that it was a question rather than a statement. 

He replied cunningly, "Who is waiting for you at home?" It was almost 10.30 PM. 

"I stay alone." Trisha told him. Raj was delighted. He could have her over and she could have him over n number of times. His face showed it. They looked at each other for some extended moments. 

"Ok then, see you later." Raj broke out of his trance and replied, trying his wit with her. 

He could've swore that Trisha's expression dropped and she said in a low voice, "Right then, Ill change and come." She went inside the room. "Go to the small room, this time. I have something to do in the other one." Raj said. She obeyed and went inside to find that there was no latch on the door. She just closed it completely and started stripping, down to her bra and panties. Then from behind, Raj wrapped his hands around her waist and kissed her full on the mouth slowly caressing her hips. Trisha's face was turned on the side while kissing him. She breathed in deeply and purred - loving every bit of his mouth on hers. 

"I was just seeing your reaction when I said, ok then see you later. Please stay here tonight. Lets watch a movie, drink coffee and maybe have some more fun." said Raj as he pulled out of the kiss. 

"Ok. Sure. Ill be happy to accept." Trisha said to Raj, a small smile brightening up on her lovely face. It was maybe just Raj's imagination, but Trisha looked extremely happy now that he had invited her to stay, as if she had felt love. 

"Ill put the clothes on again.ok? Off you go." said Trisha shooing him out. 

"Or you can stay the way you are. You look better like this." said Raj mischievously maintaining a straight face. 

Trisha gave him a punch on his arm and drove him away. 

Tujhko... main rakhlu waha....jaha pe kahi hai mera yakeen....main jo tera naa hua....kisi kaa nahin...kisi kaa nahin....le jayen jaane kahan....hawayein.... hawayein was playing on the bluetooth speaker....              

 

   

Raj and Trisha - A bit of a break - Part 15.

 Trisha sort of slept on Raj's shoulder while still seating. Both were kind of tired and had relaxed now that they were through one. After some time, Raj kissed Trisha and woke her up. 

"You slept." said Raj.

" 'We' slept.....with each other....in your 'small car'" said Trisha. "A small car which was big enough to have sex". she added. 

"Hahaha....good one....." Raj said. 

"How many girls have you fucked in this parking space.? It seems its no miracle to you that no one showed up and its so dark and you chose to park here and that you deduced that we would be having sex" said Trisha. 

"No one could've missed the signals that you gave me before. You couldnt have been more conspicuous." said Raj. 

"What signals?" Trisha said, but laughed. 

"Anyway, shall we have something to eat now? and drink? Its 10 o clock and my place is just around the corner. We could go there and order something and I can make coffee?" Raj suggested. 

"Yes. Lets go. Sex makes me hungry anyway." Trisha said, looked at him with a straight face to see what his reaction was.    

"Sex makes you hungry? Seems like you are as experienced as you seemed  - while in action back then?" said Raj. 

Trisha laughed and said, "I knew you would ask me this." 

"So what is the answer? Are you experienced?" Raj asked. 

"Maybe yes." Trisha said. 

"Dont be annoying. How many times? How many boys? Or How many? I shouldnt feel like I'm just being used, isnt it?" Raj asked jokingly. 

"What if you do feel you're being used? You had fun didnt you?" Trisha asked him smiling. 

"That's true, mystery girl. Ok, dont tell me. Lets go." Raj said dressing up. Trisha had already done so. 

He threw the car into gear and they were off. 

Raj parked in his building parking slot and they both got off the car. The watchman was watching them. 

"Cmon quickly. Ill need to bribe him later. Otherwise the fucker will tip off the aunties in the society that this boy brings girls over and my landlord will kick me out" Raj told Trisha, as she glared back at him. 

Trisha adjusted her dress and neckline as they got into the lift. Raj was staring at her boobs. 

"What are you looking at, sleazeball ?" Trisha asked Raj. 

"Not sleazeball. I am looking at yourball." Raj joked. Trisha slapped him on his arm. 

"Do you have a spanking fantasy?" Raj asked her laughing out. 

"I do. Shall I try it out on you?" Trisha asked him threateningly. 

"Sure. I am your slavvveeeee......." Raj said in a mock - squealing and submissive voice. 

They stopped on the 6th floor and Raj seeing that no one was around, stepped out of the lift and opened the door to his apartment. He held the door for her. She stepped inside and he turned towards the door to latch it from the inside. Then he turned forwards into the house. She had stopped right in front of him facing him. He almost stumbled on her. 

As soon as he faced her, she pushed him on the door and her body pressing on his started kissing him again...Midway she put a hand to his crotch and then gripped his rising penis hard. Raj kind of tore away from her kiss and said, "Hey, patience horny princess. You said yourself that sex makes you hungry" 

"Sex makes me hungry for more sex - duffer !!"  she said unflinching and openly. 

"Lets order food first...." Raj said. He turned on the bluetooth speaker and connected his mobile to it. 

It started playing...

Zara zara mehekta hai mehekta hai aaj toh tera tan badan.....

     

  

Raj and Trisha - A roller coaster ride and a starry night - Part 14

 The air conditioning was turned down to 20 degrees with medium fan, but both of them were sweating. When they stripped down to their underwear, Raj looked at the beads of sweat on Trisha's cleavage. Her boobs were tightly hugged by her bra, which was lacy in the lower portion and covered just enough so that the upper cresent of the dark portion near her tits was visible. Raj had huge shoulders, but lean and muscular arms. Trisha loved his arms instantly and planted a lingering kiss on his biceps. She was still sitting on his lap facing him, back against the steering wheel. They were on the 'driver's' seat. Her buttocks were just fitting between the lower edge of the steering wheel and Raj's legs, as if being 'pinched' between the two. Observing this, Raj raised his legs at the knees using his toes to leverage them, so that Trisha was pinched harder in the buttocks. She squealed and giggled and slapped his crotch through his jeans, to which he let out a small roar "Ohhhh....you fucking bitch". 

Then he butted his head on her cleavage, bit the top of one of her breasts in a sexual frenzy and then sucked at the beads of sweat that had formed there. "Owww.....Ooohhhhh....God....that was soooooo gooodd...." she sighed blissfully. Then they kissed once again. 

"Ohh myyyyy, Raj, Im getting wetttt. Pllleaaasee give it to meeee" Trisha gasped, breaking the french kiss. Raj didnt waste any time. He pulled out the condoms pack from his jeans pocket (Already squashed under the movement), he pulled out a single condom and wore it on quickly, making sure it was nice and secure. 

Then, in his eagerness, he found her hole and thrust it in there so roughly that Trisha screamed. 

"Owwww.....that hurt so much......yesssss, cmon.....give it to me......" Trisha screamed aloud, but then laughed and gave a blissful sigh, " Ohhhh damnnn......thats soo gooodd" 

And then began the roller coaster, up and down they went, pleasure and pain hand in hand elevating them to cloud nine. It was a starry night and both of them saw many more stars all around. 

The warmth and lubrication of her tight vagina, was perfect for his big and sizable penis, hard, erect and dripping precum enough to fill a water bottle. He thrust it into her like a car piston in the cylinder, harder and harder each time, as he reached sexual overdrive. His hand explored her whole body from firm legs to butt, from butt to hips and then on the best - the breasts. Medium sized and perfectly handful for him. Glowing fair, tender but firm, tits excited and upwards. He played with her breasts, fondled them, cuddled them and suckled like a baby. He pulled her sexy hair backwards roughly causing her to squeal and moan in pain. He played with it, running his fingers through them, feeling the volume and the silk finish, then drowning himself in its dark shadow and closing his eyes on them, feeling it on his eyelashes. 

"I just cant hold it anymore, Trisha.....I just cant....Im so sorry.....kiss mee" Raj said in a muffled voice. Body tense and pushed to the hilt, he was mustering all the effort of holding back his climax.  

"Its ok Ra...." Trisha smooched him forcing her lips so hard, that Raj could not take in air from his mouth. 

Raj had reached the point where he just could'nt hold it back anymore. He tried to breathe, but to no effect. He climaxed, shooting semen in the condom, 4...5.....6......7.....8......he couldnt count because he just couldnt think....he was in heaven.....it was so heavenly, so blissful.....there was nothing but happiness .....there was no one in the world but Trisha......Oh Trisha.....Raj pulled out from the smooch and gave a loud wail of blissful pleasure.......and then everything fell silent....

Their chests were rising and falling and they were smiling and laughing in between heaved breaths....they were soaked in sweat....but nothing could have compared to the feeling that they had....that very moment.....        

 

Raj and Trisha - Raging hormones and bubbling hot passion - Part 13

 "Chocolate and condoms" said Raj urgently to the medical store attendant out of turn. The brawny customer in front glared at him. But hearing 'condoms' he understood the urgency and stood aside !! 

"Chocolate flavoured condoms - which brand?" the attendant asked. 

"No...no chocolate and condoms separate, chocolate bar and a pack of condoms." Raj said to the attendant. He was aware that he was breathing heavily now. He told him the brand of both and paid for it. The attendant carefully wrapped the pack of condoms in a newspaper and gave it to Raj. Raj grabbed it and dashed out. He put the condoms quickly into his pocket, opened the door of the car, sat in and handed the chocolate bar to Trisha. 

"Ummmm.....chocolate the aphrodisiac...." Trisha said sexily and laughed a haughty laugh.

"Would you like to eat something else now? Are you hungry?" Raj asked her. 

"Yes Raj, I am hungry, but not for food....." Trisha said and paused. Raj could'nt believe how openly she was talking. Then at the very next instance she said, "....but yes hungry for chocolate" She looked at him meaningfully and then smiled mischievously again. 

Raj was burning inside. He felt like someone had planted a bomb inside him ready to explode. 

He stopped the car near a secluded parking lot which was near his house. It wasnt exactly a parking lot, more like an empty plot, where children played cricket and at night few cars were parked. It was around 9 PM at night and the parking lot was dark. He put on the lights in the car. 

"Lets eat the chocolate Trisha" Raj said, but she was already enjoying the chocolate. 

"Give me some now" Raj said, trying to grab the bar from her. She giggled and dodged him and then said "You will have to take it from me." Trisha said. Raj saw that she had some chocolate stains on her lips and cheeks. He laughed and then just stared at her - head to toe. "Cmon give it to me" he tried once again.  She giggled, turned around and bit off some chocolate and held it between her lips. 

"Try to take it now" Trisha said........... meaningfully as she showed her teeth clenched on the piece of chocolate. Raj hesitated, thinking quickly. Did she really mean it? His penis throbbed in his pants.  

"Cmo....." Trisha was about to say 'Cmon' but before she could complete,  Raj placed one hand behind her neck, the other on the other side of her face, feeling her soft cheeks, pulled her towards him and kissed her deeply and passionately. Her giggling stopped suddenly. Now gagging because of his ferocious kiss, Trisha first resisted, but then obeyed and started returning his kiss with the same intensity and wildness. They kissed and kissed, their heartbeats accelerating, their bodies charging up with a fire of passion and sex that had been boiling at the surface for god knows how many hours, days or even weeks. Raj pulled out for a bit, they looked at each other and then lip locked again. 

Raj's lips tasted hers - moist and sweet, chocolate flavoured. He kissed every inch of them, hungrily covering all the edges, ridges and all the contours. He sucked at them and felt like eating them up. She in turn was exploring his lips with her tongue, tickling his mouth, tasting his warm breath, her hands clasped in his smooth shampooed thick hair. Raj turned out the lights in the car. Now it was only the moonlight and its reflection on Trisha's lovely and glowing face.    

Raj's erection was so hard now that he felt as if his penis could break anytime. It was especially painful, when Trisha put a foot across and sat on his lap, crossing her hands behind his head, still kissing him. He cried out of the pleasure and pain but was gagged by their kiss, making him breathless. He was awed by and was enjoying her raw, open and experienced style. Both of them just could not really come apart and kept on the lip show, the blaze of lust raging equally in both their bodies, ready to explode like a megaton atom bomb. 

As she sat in his lap facing him,  her dark, silky soft long hair fell on his face tickling him on the cheeks and eyes. She had bent her head forwards while sitting on him, obviously at a higher point than him. Her hair felt so good, velvet-like, and smelt like a thousand roses. 

It was time for the next move. Raj put his hands under her kameez top and slid them upwards, on the way, feeling her smooth, tender skin. When his hands reached her hips, he squeezed them hard, almost pinching it. She cried out loudly in pain,  breathing down on him, as she let go off the kiss. Her moan got Raj charged up even more and he once again pounced his lips on her, ignoring her moans. Trisha was now gasping for air, but kept the lip lock. She started unbuttoning his shirt, as he still held her at the waist. Next in a sudden move, she lustfully bit him hard on his collar bone, making a raw red tooth mark. Raj yelled loudly, then wildly pulled her into a bearhug and hungrily bit and pulled her ear...... 

They separated for a moment and stripped down to their innerwear............              

 

Raj and Trisha - Rising heat - Part 12

 Both were very silent as they sat inside. Raj started the car and drove on, none asking the other where they should go for a ride. Both kept stealing glances at each other and sometimes at the same time, so that they saw eye to eye with each other. Trisha kept checking out Raj every now and then. They were passing through a narrow lane, when a kid of around 4-5 years of age, appeared from behind one of the parked cars. Instinctively Raj slammed the brakes and the car screeched to a stop safely before the kid. The kid was playing and jumping around as if nothing had happened. 

For a moment, Raj was shocked. Trisha was shocked too and instinctively placed a hand on Raj's thigh squeezing it tightly. Few moments later, Raj looked at her. Trisha, on realising withdrew her hand. "Ill check out the ....kid....the car" Raj said and got out of the car, looked in the direction of the kid furiously. He checked the car tire. It had left a black skid mark on the road. As he had squatted near the tire, he felt a warm hand on his shoulder. "Is it ok Raj? Are you ok?" Trisha asked him softly. Then she caught him at the elbow and coaxed him to stand up. "Cmon, lets go, no harm done thankfully." she said. 

When they sat in the car, Trisha placed a hand on Raj's shoulder and squeezed it gently, her face slightly bent towards and looking at him. "Good reflexes Raj. There couldve been an accident. But you saved the boy. You are sooo goood" Trisha said lingering the last two words. 

Raj looked at her face, which was bent towards him. She was close enough for him to smell her perfume and he could see her beauty spots. Then their eyes met and they gazed at each other for a few moments, before someone honked from behind. The gaze was broken and this time Trisha swore...."What the fuck..."

Something had happened between them, Raj was sure and he was smiling again. Trisha flicked her hair aside and turned her face towards the window, smiling too. None of them spoke again for a while. 

But they caught each other smiling in between. Once or twice Raj had run his fingers through his hair,  whistled a love song and stared at her from head to toe, deliberately, making it obvious to her. She, in turn had intentionally pulled her hair in front, and turned towards the window so that he could see her fair neck and shoulders. She knew that he was looking and she was just absolutely loving it.  

After some time, Raj said to Trisha, "You are looking very sexy today." 

"Thanks for the compliment. You too - looking extremely attractive." said Trisha gazing at his eyes and biting her lips. 

Raj blushed furiously. He felt the heat on his ears and was sure they had gone red. 

Trisha laughed, "Hmmm....." she sighed. "Look at those ears, you are going red everywhere" she said touching his ears with her each of her fingertips and then withdrawing them hesitantly. 

Raj laughed, but he was now sure that she was really getting onto him and he could now make further moves. The touch of her fingertips and the thoughts of her being physically close to him gave him goosebumps all over and an instant erection. His penis had started forming a mound in his jeans. Trisha looked at the mound directly, biting her lips and half closing her eyes....

Raj screeched the car in front of a medical store......       

       

Raj and Trisha - The rising mountains - Part 11

 Raj screeched his car in front of Trisha's building gate. He was checking his mobile, when Trisha knocked on the car door. He lowered his mobile, put it in the gear compartment of the car, unlocked the doors and then turned his head to look at Trisha. 

He caught his breath at the sight of her. 

She had worn a beautiful crepe salwar kameez - bottle green in colour which fell ever so beautifully on her shapely body and hugged all the curves. It had a plunging neckline, revealing her cleavage as she bent forward to knock on the window beckoning Raj to open the door. Her dupatta was a combination of cream and green colors on either side with green floral print. The sleeves of her dress were semi transparent and her skin glowed through the material despite of the latter's relatively dark colour. Her hair fell on either side of her face as she looked through the window. She had soft curled them at the ends. She pulled the door open and stepped gracefully into the car, when her dupatta fell from her shoulders, once again revealing the cleft of her ample bosom. As she swung her dupatta back from her shoulders it swayed in Raj's face and he was transported to seventh heaven as he deeply took in the fragrance of her morning dew jasmine perfume. As Raj kept looking at her, he noticed that she had put a bright red shade of lipstick and had applied light pink blush on her cheeks - not that she required either - he thought. She is sooo sexy....I just want to get on top of her and fuck her to no end....thought Raj and his pulse started racing.  

She settled in and Raj just kept on looking at her. 

"Ohhhh fucckkkkk..." he sighed softly, but could not quite keep his voice down. 

Trisha after a couple of moments, turned towards him, her eyes looking at him with a slightly seductive  look - or so Raj thought. After seeing the awestricken expression on his face, she smiled her dazzling smile and said, "What is with you? You look as if you've seen a ghost." 

Raj after a moments delay and still looking at her said, "No ghost, but I have just seen a divine being, it seems" 

Trisha laughed loudly, throwing her head back sexily , her tresses falling behind her and her neck arching back beautifully. Raj started getting an erection. His heart had started pounding furiously. His throat became dry and he searched hastily for the bottle of water in his car, found it and emptied half the bottle. 

"Are you ok Raj?" Trisha asked him in a tender, almost loving voice. 

"Yeah, Im ok...lets go." Raj said. He shifted to first gear, gripping the gear knob tightly and slammed onto the gas pedal screeching the car to a start. 

Trisha kept looking at him every now and then. At times, Raj caught her staring at him, his arms and the top of his head. Both didnt speak at all during the car ride. Raj concentrated very hard on the traffic, uncomfortably aware of the painful sensation in his pants. He was afraid that his jeans might get a wet spot soon because of precum. 

Parking was not available in the basement of the theatre so Raj decided to drop Trisha at the gate and park it. It would also be a good opportunity of calming himself down and 'flattening' his pants. Upto some extent, it had the desired effect. By the time he locked the car, his pulse had eased slightly. He walked towards the gate and saw Trisha waiting for him, playing with her hair. When she saw him,  she gestured him to give her an escort arm. He did so and they walked, elbows locked. 

By the time they reached the booking window, Dunkirk - the movie had sold out. 

"Oh...Lets just go for a ride Raj, please." She told him fluttering her eyelashes, her light brownish mascara shade showing, again her voice soft, tender, as if begging him to go. 

"Dont you want to watch something else?" Raj asked her - aware that she was purposely fluttering her eyelashes. His instinct had started telling him that this girl was in a very different 'mood'. She was giving very clear signals of wanting to be with him and seduce him. She was speaking to him in different tones too. 

"Ok" he said smiling nervously. 

"Oh Raj, why are you looking so nervous?" Trisha said - same concern, caring tone again. 

"No....Im not nervous." said Raj nervously. 

Trisha, looked at him from head to toe and back to head again leaning slightly sideways, face upwards, lips slightly puckered. 

Raj could see her lips, full...juicy....extremely inviting....he could feel his mount rising again in his pants

"Lets go Trisha" Raj gazed at her, now totally aware of her signals. "Fuck the movie" he added. 

And then both of them started walking hurriedly towards the gate and from there to the car. Raj unlocked the car and both sat inside....

       

   

   

        

Raj and Trisha - The date is finally set - Part 10

 "Hello ....who is it?" Trisha mumbled groggily. 

"Raj ...Raj ....this is Raj....." Raj said

"What is it Raj?" Trisha mumbled again half asleep. 

"I was returning your call. You had called right?" Raj said. 

"Its 1 AM, Raj. You could have returned the call direclty tommorow when I am awake." Trisha said.

"Ok. Ill call you tommorow." Raj said.

"Ok. Bye" Trisha said and hung up, half asleep. 

Raj made a face, set the alarm and dozed off. He was really annoyed had Trisha had told him off, but it was consolation for him that Trisha had called him back the first time around. 

Next day when Raj was having tea, Trisha rang him up.

"Raj, you had called. Tell me now, what happened? why did you call?" Trisha asked this time fully awake. 

"Trisha, I called you to ask you whether you are coming for Dunkirk tonight? Ill have to check now whether the movie has changed." Raj said. 

"Raj, I have a meeting at 4 PM today. So if its possible, lets do the current booking. No problem, if its not Dunkirk, we will watch something else or roam around in your 'small car' " Trisha added laughingly. 

"Ok. No problem, then let me know if and when you are free, then ill pick you up, ok?" Raj said. 

"Sure Raj. See you then." Trisha said. 

"Ok.....and uh Trisha?" Raj hesitated. 

"Yes?" asked Trisha. 

"Can I watsapp you? Is it ok? Is it your personal mobile or ....?" Raj asked eagerly and hopeful.

"Sure Raj....Bye....See you." Trisha hung up. 

Thank god for watsapp !! Raj thought to himself happily. There he was ....meeting Trisha once again....

In the evening, Trisha informed him that 6 PM would be perfect to pick her up from the office. 

Raj dressed himself in his coolest of T-shirts and his best pair of jeans. He made sure there was no hair poking out from his nose and he trimmed his eyebrows. He had applied shampoo to his hair that morning, gelled, combed his hair and had bodysprayed 'Blue water', one of his best fragrances. He popped an 'orbit chewing gum' before leaving.      

  

 

Raj and Trisha - Contact finally established - Part 9

 When Raj woke up the next morning, he had a headache. He remembered why he was feeling so happy, but remembered only after sometime that he was at Sanju's place, where they had crashed yesterday after having drinks and dinner. 

Sanju had made tea for all of them and the four of them sat together and drank. He had just told all of them yesterday that she was the HR person at the company in which he'd gone for an interview and thought it would be polite to speak to her since he knows her. All of them had said ok and started laughing. Obviously, they could tell there was more to it. 

Out of respect of friendship, they hadnt brought up the topic again, which was pretty unusual. Otherwise they would've pulled his leg the whole night. Probably Arvind had guessed that this was a touchy matter, that - he was seriously onto her and had tipped them off. 

That day on reaching home, Raj was restless. He couldnt wait to see Trisha again. He wanted to call her, watsapp her, speak to her, meet her. But his mind told him to go slow. He was off to a good start and didnt want to spoil it by acting like a fucking desperado (which he was). He went on doing his daily chores and all, searching for new jobs, applying here and there. He kept checking the theatre website for booking of Dunkirk. 

On Wednesday that week, he opened the booking website and finally called up Trisha. After about 10 rings, he hung up. Trisha wasnt picking up the phone. Maybe she was in a meeting? Finally, she picked up. 

"Hello Trisha, hi... its Raj." said Raj. 

"Hello Raj, can I call you back please? Im in the midst of a meeting. Ill call you back in the evening or at night." Trisha said. 

"At night?" Raj asked again. 

"Or in the evening Raj. Bye" said Trisha and hung up quickly. 

"Fuucckkk" Raj tossed the mobile on the bed. Automatically, he was angry at her for being in something important when he had called !! 

He was eagerly waiting for her call in the evening, a message anything....but it didnt come. Not hungry, he ate his own cooked dinner, still no phone. He watched TV, sooryavansham once again, with one eye and one ear tuned in to the phone's screen and its ringtone respectively. Night came, 10, 11, 12....no call. 1 AM no call. He finally slept, heartbroken for the day. 

Next day, he decided not to call her. "Let's see if she calls" he thought to himself. If she doesnt remember me, Im not desperate either. Just asking her for a movie as a friend, he thought to himself. IM NOT CALLING HER TODAY. FUCK IT. 

By afternoon however, he had sent her an sms. 'Dear Trisha, can you call me when you are free?' he wrote.

By evening he regretted sending her the message !! It was obvious she wasnt bothered to call. Why did he have to send that sms and sound like a person begging for attention? 

He was resigned to his fate. It was Thursday today and the movie could change tommorow. At 11 PM, the phone rang. At that very moment, Raj flushed the toilet and couldnt hear the mobile ring in the hall. 

At 12 he picked up his phone to set the alarm and saw that Trisha had called him and he had missed the call. His pulse started racing on seeing her missed call. It was as if she had kissed him. Since one hour had passed since her missed call, he thought and thought and thought whether he could call her or if it is too late or whether she would be asleep. He decided NOT to call her after half an hour of thinking. 

At 1 AM however, he changed his mind again !! 

He picked up the phone and called her....recklessly. After about 11 rings she picked up the phone....

 

         

 

Raj and Trisha - The memorable car journey - Part 8

 Raj unlocked the doors of his Celerio with autocop. 

"Sorry, its a bit small, my car." Raj said unnecessarily. 

"Do I look like an elephant to you?" Trisha asked with a straight face. 

Raj laughed out loud. "Here, let me get the door for you" he said reaching her side first. 

"Well, well, well....someone is rather 'chivalrous'. Do you do that for your mother as well?" Trisha asked smiling. 

"Do you have to joke on everything I say or do?" Raj asked with a straight face. "The answer is no, by the way" he added unable to hold a straight face anymore.

Both of them sat in the car and were on their way. 

"Tell me the route to your house please." Raj said. 

"Ok." Trisha replied. She was checking out his car. The car perfume was magnificent. 

"Your car?" Raj asked. 

"Mercedes SLK 350" Trisha replied. At that very same time, a large pothole appeared out of nowhere on the road and Raj slammed on the brakes and swerved the car around the pothole suddenly. 

"What the fuck??" he asked. 

"Yeah, lot of potholes on the road, I know." Trisha said misreading the reference of the rhetoric. 

"No no....you OWN a MERCEDES SLK 350?" asked Raj incredulously. 

"No. you asked me 'your car?'. So, I told you which car I like." Trisha laughed. 

"You're crazy. That was a poor joke and we could've had an accident !!" Raj replied shaking his head. "You do have a very weird sense of humour" he added. 

"Fuck off" she said angrily. 

"You too fuck off" Raj said. 

"Fuck YOU." Trisha emphasizing 'you'. 

"Sure...." Raj replied, smiled, looked at her and laughed. 

"Very funny." Trisha replied after a moment's delay and punched him quite powerfully on his arm. "Ouch. That hurt"  he replied still smiling. He could see that she was angry and embarrassed, but he saw the same shadow of a smile, he had seen on the day of the interview when he'd commented on her 'nice drawers'. 

The rest of the way, both were silent except when Trisha muttered the directions. Both could not quite speak up after that awkward bit of conversation, but Raj was smiling widely - hoping that Trisha would'nt notice. And Trisha had her head firmly fixed in the front looking confused. 

Finally, Trisha's place arrived. Raj stopped the car and still smiling, said, "Here we are, where is the mercedes?" 

"Shut up, idiot..." Trisha said smiling at him for the first time since they fell silent. 

"Listen, Im sorry, if what I said was inappropriate. It just slipped out of my mouth. Deepest apologies. No disrespect meant" said Raj honestly. 

"Its ok, No offense taken" Trisha replied curtly, then she smiled. 

"Ok. Had a nice time with you Trisha, Ill call you for that movie thing." said Raj. 

"Yes. Sure. I had a good time too, Raj." Trisha replied flashing her dazzling smile at him again. Then she put her hand forward. Raj took it and shook it in a formal handshake. Then Trisha put her other hand on top of his and shook it one more time. 

Raj's heart melted at the gesture. Her hands were warm, soft and just like the other day she held them for a fraction of second longer than necessary. He had a strong urge to pull her towards him and kiss her. He resisted the urge and quickly withdrew his hand as if he had an electric shock. Trisha laughed knowingly, got out of the car, went to the gate and requested the watchman to open it. Raj was watching from a distance.....and muttering to himself unknowingly - in filmy style "Palat.....palat....palat....." 

And then Trisha turned and looked around at him and waved him goodbye, ekdum filmy style again !! 

After that Raj did not remember how he much time it took to reach Sanju's place, how many pegs of whiskey he had, which brand it was, what they chatted about and what they ordered for dinner.

Trisha had taken over his head and images of her appeared everywhere to him .....

Jaadu hai.....tera hi jaadu......jo mere dil ko chaane laga......    

  

  

Raj and Trisha - The prospects open up - Part 7

 After the loud music in the playpark, it was nice to hear slow tunes in CCD. Raj had ordered a cappuccino and Trisha had ordered a frappe latte. Once the order was placed, there was a couple of moment's awkward silence, where they looked at each other and smiled. Raj thought that it mustve been a very sheepish grin of his. Trisha thought the same. 

"Ok Trisha...." 

"Ok Raj....."

Both spoke at the same time and laughed. "You go first" said Raj. 

"Ok. Well so what are you doing these days?" said Trisha.

"Well, besides playing bowling, eating at italian restaurants and going out with my friends, nothing much. just waiting for your call - company's call" said Raj. "I dunno, its been a week now and dont know when I should expect a reply - atleast. Do you know? or it is against your professionalism to tell me when I will receive a reply?" Raj added. 

He thought it was better to start off on a common topic rather than shoot wildly. The only topics that he used to talk with friends were cricket, girls, movies, girls, whiskey brands, girls, sports, girls, politics and girls !! Its obvious which topic of discussion was favourite, when it came to friends. Definitely, he could not discuss this topic with her, nor were the other topics a likely shot.

"To be honest, be ready for atleast a couple of month's wait for even a reply. We're in no big hurry to hire. There is a new project coming up, but it is still atleast half a year away, so dont wait too long. If you have some other opportunity, take it up" Trisha said directly. 

Raj looked crestfallen. He didnt even have any other interviews lined up. Atleast WesIT had called him for interviews. Others had rejected his application on email. He was running low on funds also. Looking at Raj's depressed expression, Trisha said to him softly, 

"Hey Raj, dont worry, you'll get something soon. I just dont want you to get your hopes too high. I know the scenario of my company and as a friend, I thought I should tell you as it is" 

Hearing 'friend' once again bought a small amount of happiness in Raj's heart. 

"Thanks Trisha." Raj said with a small smile. 

At that moment, their coffees arrived and they both got their things out of the way - purse, mobiles and car keys. 

"Dunkirk is going to be run in the theatre" Raj mumbled. 

Surprisingly, Trisha replied, "Oh is it? Id wanted to watch it since the promos were shown on TV" 

"You like war movies, do you?" asked Raj. 

"Oh, I just love them. Full of action and fast moving. Connected to history and feeling of patriotism in them" Trisha said with twinkling eyes. 

"Well, I didnt imagine you to be a 'war movie' girl" said Raj casually. 

"What did you imagine me to be then?" laughed Trisha. 

"More like romance, love and maybe comedy" Raj said smiling. "What do you say, I treat you to a movie next weekend or Thursday maybe, since movies usually change on Friday, maybe you'll give me that job then?" he added still smiling and casual. 

"Oh, so now you are asking me out for a movie straightaway?" Trisha had brought a serious, strict look on her face and was looking at Raj with narrowed eyes. 

Raj was shocked at seeing the sudden curtness. "I mean....we can go if you want to...." Raj said timidly afraid that he had put a dent in their improving chemistry. 

Trisha maintained the face for a couple of moments and then suddenly said, "Its ok Raj, I was just joking. Lets go. I just have to see whether Im free that day" said Trisha sounding completely normal now. In fact she was smiling widely. 

"Why did you joke about it though?" Raj asked, this time he was serious and straight-faced. On the other hand, he just couldnt believe that she'd said yes so soon. 

"Uh...I dont know Raj...Im sorry...." Trisha replied suddenly uncomfortable and replying timidly. Now that she thought about it, joking about it meant that she just wanted to see Raj's reaction at her rejecting his request. And that meant that she had also started feeling a bit differently for him.   

Raj smiled and said, "Dont worry, I just turned the joke on you, hahaha." 

They chatted a bit more about war movies and then it was time to go. Trisha picked up her mobile from her purse to find 5-6 missed calls from her friends. Trisha called one of them and came to know they had gone home and had called up to inform her. Raj called up Arvind to find that they had already left and gone to Sanju's place by public transport. They hadnt bothered to call him up before leaving !! Raj suspected that Arvind had hatched this 'plan' of not calling him and just proceeding home, so that there was a chance for Raj to give Trisha a lift, if Trisha's friend's left without her as well. Anyway, it was just 7 o'clock in the evening, so it wasnt too late. 

"My friends have left" Trisha said. 

"My friends too" Raj said. 

Both of them had the same thought at the same time and then both laughed loudly. 

"What?" Raj asked, recovering first. 

"What what? You know what. Apparently both our friends had some plans for us !!" Trisha said to Raj  mischievously and directly. 

"Well, you are one frank girl, you know" Raj said. Her frankness and openness was turning him on now. "Ill give you a lift home" he said. 

"Yes, please..." Trisha said. As she was going to get up from her chair, she removed her spectacles and pulled out her hair tie / bow. She shook her head and her hair flew like soft smooth silk in all directions. She clasped the bow in her white even teeth. She pulled her soft hair together passing it between the fingers of both hands and finally holding it it to the top of her head. Then with one hand, she formed a loop and with the other hand passed her hair over to the other side of the loop and tied a loose knot with just one or two strands prancing near her cheeks. She had worn just a cotton tunic top with a floral design and bell sleeves and jeans. Casually dressed but so elegant. Raj was watching every movement of hers with awe !

"She is so beautiful. Her hair....my god ...her hair !!" Raj thought, still wearing the same expression on his face. 

Trisha realised that he was literally staring, but she liked it apparently and told him teasingly, "Hey, what are you looking at?" 

"You." Raj said even before he'd realised it !! Then he broke his trance and they walked away to the parking lot where his car was parked. The mall was now playing the sonu nigam number....

Tumse milke dil kaa hai jo haal kyaa kahe......ho gaya hai kaisa yeh kamaal kyaa kahe....   

       

    

     

Raj and Trisha - The first success- Part 6

 This time Raj wasnt affected by the jaw dropping bug. Rather he was surprised to see her there - with her three girl pals. He had'nt thought of it before, but now he suddenly started wondering, how come a beautiful girl like her did'nt roam around with a boy or boys = her boyfriend. Was she a lesbo or something? This was the second time for consecutive days of the weekend that he had spotted her with her 'girlfriends'. That thought combined with the fact that he had seen her twice in a couple of days, buoyed him up, made him happy and positive. Was it destiny that he should see her again and again like this and she is not yet 'taken'?

Arvi was thinking of the same, because he took Raj aside where their other two friends could not hear them and asked him with a teasing smile on his face, "Well ...well....well....looks like kismat chahti hai ki tum is haseena ko milo....sahi hai beta......" said Arvind. 

Raj could not help smiling at him, ready to agree with him !!.

"Your turn bhai, Raj." Kumar said as he gestured to Raj to bowl his turn. Then he spotted the girls. 

"Kahi yeh ladkilog apne ko stalk toh nai kar rahe naa?" Kumar said with a laugh, looking at the girls. 

"Tera turn khatam kar, Raj and then you others. Tab tak main yaha baithkar, chashme waali ko dekhta hu!!" said Kumar and crashed unto the sofa chair behind the bowling ball dispenser. 

Raj had bowled a gutter ball, because he was looking in the same direction as Kumar.....in Trisha's !!

And then something came over him and he decided to go and talk to her. After all, he knew her, he had spoken to her before and maybe destiny was calling. Besides, it is polite if you know someone and talk to them a bit. Even if he didnt do it yesterday !!

Without saying a word to his three friends, he went over the girls bowling lane, which was 2 lanes besides theirs and stopped right in front of Trisha. 

"Hi Trisha !! How are you?" said Raj. 

"Hey Raj.... I am good. How are you? Nice to see you here !!" she replied. 

Raj had not quite expected her to reply or for that matter even recognize him. He was ready for an 'adverse reaction' from her, but hearing her 'normal' response without 'any hangups' or 'attitude' increased his confidence. 

"I am fine too and its always nice to see you too !!" he said. 

"Hahaha....always? Well how many times have you seen me?" she asked quite unafraid. 

"To be honest, in the office and another time yesterday when you were eating at the italian restaurant" he replied equally brave !

"Oh !! How did you know? Were you there also?" she said. 

"No, I was following you....." he said.

"What??" she replied a bit surprised. 

"I was just joking, of course, Trisha .....Actually, I was also there for dinner....with my friends. And I noticed that you were there." Raj replied laughingly, surprised at himself that he was speaking with her so freely, unstuttering, easily. 

"Very funny Raj. You werent this funny when you were at the interview? Cat got your tongue eh?" Trisha said smirking. 

"Well to be honest, I was nervous" Raj replied, partly honest. He hadnt told her what had made him nervous, but even then he had thought that she had guessed it. 

"Hmm, yes I have that effect on people" Trisha said. 

"What?" Raj asked perplexed at her openness. 

"I mean my spectacles make me look strict" Trisha said. 

"Yes. Your looks made me nervous." Raj replied honestly. He was'nt sure whether Trisha would appreciate or notice the literal meaning of the words. 

But then Trisha gave him the same mischievous and dazzling smile that he remembered and his heart melted away. The music was playing loudly in the playpark and both of them were speaking at the top of their voices. 

"Listen, there is a CCD on the ground floor in the mall. Do you want to go there for some time, maybe have a coffee and chat a bit? I can hear myself screaming at the top of my voice just to talk to you." asked Raj. 

"Umm, yes, I guess so, Ill just tell my friends. Anyway, we were going to leave in a bit. Lets go and have a quick coffee" said Trisha. 

"And Ill tell my friends." said Raj. 

"Ok. Ill just introduce you quickly to them" Trisha said and introduced him as a 'friend' to all her friends. "Ok lets go Raj." 

As they were leaving, Raj and Trisha passed Raj's friends and he in turn introduced her to them. Arvind mustve told the others of his 'Love' for Trisha, because each of them had a knowing look on their face and everyone said a polite hi to Trisha with a straight face. 

They made their way downstairs to the CCD on the ground floor of the mall. 

It was close to 14 of Feb and the mall was decked up in decorations of heart shaped balloons, artificial roses, posters of DDLJ with Shah rukh khan and Kajol and all the 90s love songs were playing. 

Tujhe dekha toh yeh jaana sanam.....pyaar hota hai dewana sanam........                

    

         

Raj and Trisha - Life's plans and other plans - Part 5

Next day, a saturday meant another plan for Raj and friends. They had decided during the week that they would go bowling or play pool at the 'Playpark' which was at a popular mall. They watsapped each other and the plan was made !! In the evening at around 4 pm, they would reach the playpark. After around a couple of hours of games, they would head back to Sanju's place, where they would have drinks and order dinner at home. 

"Chakna ghetlays kaa?" Arvind called Raj and asked him as soon as he picked up the phone. 

"Tu baatlicha bagh re. Maagcha weli pan mich chakna anlela, tu matra batlich visarlas !! Aytya weli apan wine shop madhun gheun aalo daaru. Mala sangtoy deed shahana." Raj replied. 

"Ok. And whose car?" Arvind asked. 

"Mine. Ill pick everyone starting with you. Be ready at 3.30 PM sharp......baatli barobar" said Raj.

"Ok sir. Chal bye..." Arvind said. Just as Arvind was about to hang up -  

"Wait wait....Raj you are ok naa? after last night?" Arvind added. 

Carefully, Raj acted in a way that he didnt remember anything 

"Last night?" he asked. 

After exactly 5 seconds, he said, "Ohh. That....yes yes, its ok dont worry." 

He acted perfectly, neither replying too quickly nor too late. Just about right. 

Arvind was reassured and he hung up after saying ok.  

In reality, Raj hadnt been able to sleep that well last night. It had been Trisha-on-the-mind for him, but a part of him really agreed with Arvind when he'd said that he was nowhere near getting Trisha hooked onto him or even be friends with him, for that matter. And so he tried........very hard........ to put the matter out of his mind. First step was to make his friend forget the thing, so that he would'nt remind him again !!  

He had already started feeling better from the thought that now they would celebrate the weekend, first by bowling or playing pool and then by drinking, chatting and having food. This would make him forget about Trisha finally

Unfortunately, life had other plans for him. 

They had finished around two rounds of bowling each, when ........in strode all the girls who they'd seen yesterday at the restaurant, amongst them, the beautiful Trisha of course !!

Kaliyon jaisa...husn jo paya...har adaa mein....noor hai aaya......tu cheez badi hai mast mast new version by Neha Kakkar started playing on the playpark sound system at the very moment she entered..... 

    

Raj and Trisha - Sherlock 'Arvind' Holmes. Part 4

 After Arvi dropped Kumar and Sanju, they headed towards Raj's house to drop him. Just as they were about to reach, Arvi suddenly mumbled, "You know the girl." 

It wasnt a question.  

Raj gave a start. How did Arvind know? 

All four of them had been friends since school, but Arvi was his oldest buddy. They were together right from his Montessori days. Also, Arvind was extremely observant and had a sharp memory. 

"What?" Raj responded after a complete 10 seconds had passed. "Know which girl?" he added.

Arvi smirked, "Dont give me that, you know that I have come to know that you know the girl." 

"I dont know, you know" Raj responded. 

"Ok. Cut the confusing crap and give me a straight answer. Do you know the girl? The chashme waali girl, we just saw at the restaurant?" asked Arvind. 

"Yes. I do. But how did you come to know?" Raj asked. 

"YES!!! I knew it !!! See how well I know you" Arvind said. 

"But still? I was just ogling at her. And that couldnt give me away, because I ogle at a lot of girls" Raj said. 

"Yes, but the way you looked towards the table hurriedly after staring at her for god amount of time and then resisted every bit to turn towards her and then you refused to go and wash your hands at the basin which was right next to her. All these things gave you away." Arvi said. "But basically, it was just a hunch, call it telepathy or our childhood connection." Arvind added.  

"Yeah sounds logical, I guess." Raj said. 

"Ok then. Come clean now, what else? It is obvious that you are attracted to her.....or in love with her.....or what is it? How do you know her?" Arvind asked. 

"Well, I just gave an interview at a company where she is HR head. She took my interview and I was so infatuated by her when I saw her for the first time, that I couldnt even give the interview properly. But, after that we went for a coffee ......TO THE COFFEE MACHINE......" Raj added the last sentence with emphasis, as he didnt want Arvind to think that he had achieved a major 'milestone' with regards to taking the girl out for a coffee date. "We had a nice chat, and at times I felt that she was giving me certain signals from her side too, but I cant be too sure." he added further. 

"So now you are waiting for her call or for a call from the company to get closer to her if possible, eh?" Arvind asked. 

"Yes, Sherlock" said Raj. 

"Well best of luck to you and off you go .....I want to reach home...Bye" saying so Arvind shooed Raj away. 

"Im hurt, you wont even listen to the complete story man" Raj said. 

"Well it seems that you are still nowhere and I just dont want to get your hopes too high" Arvind smirked. 

"Well seems that, that has worked, because Im really depressed now." Raj said and started walking away. 

"Arre Raj, bas kyaa? Majak kar raha tha yaar, call karta hu tommorow, you are coming for bowling arent you tommorow?" Arvind called out after Raj. 

"Dekhta hu....." Raj said his head bowed. 

"What the fuck man? When did he become so touchy?" thought Arvind and scratching his head, put his car into reverse gear by mistake and backed up. He just braked ahead of the car parked on the street. 

"Fuck!!" Arvind swore. "Why am I getting confused?" he thought. He put his car into first gear and drove away.   

 

 

 

 

 

Raj and Trisha - When in love, its a small world. - Part 3.

 There was'nt any call from WesIT till Friday. However, Raj had kind of got over his 'Trisha attraction'. He was looking forward to meeting his friends - Arvind, Kumar and Sanjay. Friday night was to party, go out for a ride or hang out at Taljai, Parvati hill or near Khadakwasla lake. This time they decided to meet for dinner, head out to a local Italian restaurant. They met at sharp 8 AM outside the restaurant. As usual, Sanju was late. When he finally arrived, they hurled abuses at him and took turns punching him on the arm. It was ok since he was an old friend, otherwise a guy of Sanju's physique could have physically picked up all the other 3 together and hurled them atleast 10 feet away !! 

"Gym madhe arms maarat asel aani porin warti line, mhanun ushir." said Raj suddenly. He was thinking of Trisha again. Maybe a guy of Sanju's physique could impress her, thought Raj woefully. 

They sat on the table. Everyone was chatting except Raj, who had fallen silent since the time he thought of Trisha. Arvi soon noticed and asked him what happened. "Nothing" Raj dismissed it. But then he came out of his silence and started chatting. They placed the order and started chatting again. 

As they were chatting, four girls walked in. Amongst them was a bespectacled girl. She was dressed in jeans and a bright yellow short kurti top, with a plunging neckline, unfortunately hidden by her green colored dupatta which was semi transparent. Her even and fair complexion was clearly visible through the dupatta. She had worn her hair in a high ponytail which she had drawn in front so that it fell just above her midriff. In the lighting of the restaurant it was shining like a strip of silk.  She had worn a pinkish / light red lipstick. Her lips looked 'kissable', 'full and fleshy' and 'moist'. 

Arvind and Kumar, as usual were the ones, who had managed to occupy the seats which DID NOT face the wall. So they saw her as soon as the girls entered and swore. 

"Fuck....kay item aahe yaar, chashme waali. Tichya badlyaat mi tumchi teeghanchi maitri pan sodun deu shakto" said Kumar. 

"Saale ladki mili toh doston ko bhul jayega kyaa? Yahi ummeed thi terese, bada kameena hai tu" said Raj. 

"Arre bagh tar khara. Kasli jabardasta aahe" said Arvind. 

"Thamb jara.....asa ekdum hawrata sarkha baghu nakos....hawas ke pujari, saale" he added. 

But contrary to that and as expected both Raj and Sanju turned their heads at the same time and looked directly at her. 

Then Raj went into the same spell as when he'd met Trisha. Because it was ............. Trisha !!  He kept gaping at her, jaw dropped. 

"Mag? Aahe ki nai kadakkkk?" said Arvind. 

Sanju had looked at her and returned his attention to the table, on which food had arrived. But Raj kept gaping. 

"Arre bas naa ata. Kai tichya aat jaanar aahes kaa?" Sanju joked as he started gorging on the starters that they had ordered. 

Luckily Trisha or any of the girls had not noticed that there was a 'hunter' who was 'shooting deer' from a distance.  

With difficulty Raj turned his head towards food. He fell silent again. They finished their food and went to the wash basin to wash hands, turn by turn. The wash basin was just behind where Trisha sat. And of course each of them glanced at Trisha when they passed her table. 

"Tu jau shaktos ata...." said Sanju to Raj, when he came back. 

"Nako, me tissue ni pusle haath" said Raj obviously wanting to avoid the sight of Trisha again in case she noticed and that he had to talk to her or even say 'Hi' to her. He knew that he became a coward when he saw her and that such was her dazzling effect on him that he would just stop there and stare at her stupidly, stuttering or at a loss of words. On top of that, there were three other giggly girls with her. This wouldve obviously affected his confidence, adversely.    

Raj's friends did'nt find it unusual that he didnt go and wash his hands on the basin after eating. They paid the bill and left the restaurant.  

They sat in Arvi's car and he turned on the music. 

Kumar Sanu's hit number was playing....'Tujhe ....dekha.....toh yeh jaaana sanam....pyaar hota hai ...deewana sanam'               

Raj and Trisha - Hope is the only inspiration. Part 2.

 

Next morning, Raj woke up with an awesome feeling. He felt happy and buoyant. He made himself some tea and was reminded of the previous day's coffee with Trisha. Oh, those were happy moments. After all those smiles and 'signals' (as Raj thought) from her, Raj was already in love and longing for a call from her. Lots of times that morning, he felt like picking up his phone and calling her or watsapping her, but restrained himself from doing it. She would start thinking that he's a stalker and that would creep her out forever. 

Instead he started checking her fb profile. Unfortunately but obviously, it was locked. She must have received plenty of attention, he thought and that just put him off a bit. As the day progressed, he returned to his original - before - the - meeting - with - Trisha mood. He looked at her card, saved her number in his mobile. Then he clicked on her watsapp profile photo and found the picture of a flower there. What the fuck.....that's typical, he thought angrily - why hide such a beautiful face? 

And as the day loomed on, no call came from WesIT or from Trisha or even from that hook nosed idiot who had taken his technical interview. And although, he knew that no company will ever call a candidate to tell him about his appointment / rejection on the very next day, that didnt stop him from being angry at them in his mind. He realised in the evening that he was behaving exactly like a guy in love - mixed emotions, angry at people for nothing and imagining situations which cannot be logically true. 

As the week progressed, he thought a lot about Trisha, her smiles, the intentions behind it and the signals that she had given him - or those which he had imagined atleast. It was like a video tape running in his mind in which there were a lot of cupid's arrows criss crossing and angels singing and heart shaped red balloons flying here and there. In the video appeared Trisha - beautiful in her blue saree - running towards him and saying....Oh Raj, I love you sooooooooo much and kissing him full on the mouth, her silky hair falling over his face and the fragrance of her perfume hanging in the air. He ran the video in his mind over and over again and tried to 'analyze' all her smiles and signals.  

3 days after the interview, when he was having this wonderful day dream again, his cell phone rang. His ringtone was the cackling laughter sound. The one that 'Circuit' has in munnabhai movie. He was startled and his dream was brutally broken by this evil laughter - as if the mobile phone had it against his sorry ass also - he thought.  

The mobile slipped from his hands, he caught it again and picked up the phone to realise that the caller had already hung up. He thought it must be from the company.  Eager and hopeful that the company mightve called, he dialled the number again. 

It connected. "Hello....Hello....who is this please? I got a call from this number" spoke Raj

"Hello Mr. Raj?" 

"Yes, tell me, who is this please?" Raj asked impatiently. 

"Yes, Im from ISSPS bank. Are you looking for a personal loan?" the person asked. 

"Oh.....just fuck off man" replied Raj. 

 He turned on the TV and tuned to the music channel. 

Zindagi ki yahi reet hai....haar ke baad hi jeet hai....thode aasu hai ....thodi hasi.....aaj gam hai toh kal hai khushi.....    

He felt better listening to this song.......and slept soundly. Sometimes, hope is the only inspiration that you have :). 

 

Raj and Trisha - a Start? Part 1.

 Ok Mr. Raj, you can go to the next cabin for your HR interview. Raj had been looking for a job for the last three months following the shutdown of his earlier company. After what seemed to be hundreds of applications and thousands of emails and communications, had landed up an interview in WesIT an IT company in Pune. He had around 5 years of experience and was living in Pune since his engineering education days in a hostel then and now in an apartment. The technical interview had gone pretty ok as per Raj so he gave himself a 50-50 chance for selection (in his mind). He wanted the job as soon as possible, as he was running out of cash reserves and needed money badly even to pay the rent of his 1BHK apartment in Pune. 

As he walked past the reception area to the HR cabin, there were atleast 10 people seated there. As per the company website, there was only one vacancy. "Woah.....my chances are about 10% I guess" thought Raj sadly, as he looked at those guys. With a heavy heart and a bowed head he opened the cabin door and peeked inside. 

The lady that he saw was quite an eye-catcher. It was as if someone had tickled him on the insides. He didnt realise that his jaw had dropped and that he hadnt said anything after peering inside. The girl looked up questioningly at him and after a few seconds asked, "Yes?". Hearing no response and seeing the same expression, she asked again a little more loudly. "Yes? Are you one of the candidates?" Finally this time, Raj collected himself and said "Yes....". 

"Well, come in" She said. Raj again went into his dream like state for a few moments, before he finally heard her repeating the same thing upon which Raj sat on the chair hurriedly as if he had just caught a bus. 

The girl was b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l. It was Navratri time and she had worn a superb dark blue chiffon saree that fabulously contrasted her fair and pinkish skin. She had an almond shaped face, with deep brown eyes and perfect lips. The red lipstick was a great match to her slightly cherubic face and cute dimpled chin. She had tied her hair into an elegant knot with some strands playing on her cheeks. She had worn black rimmed spectacles. Her blouse was sleeveless and was tailored in such a way that it  ever so slightly revealed the cleavage of her medium breasts, which looked firm and tight. "It might just be the tailor's talent to design the blouse that way" thought Raj as he tried to get a grip on himself. He was already experiencing a choked throat and there was an uncomfortable tightening in his pants. He almost felt like jumping on the girl, kissing and fucking her all over.  He decided to look away while the girl started to bend and pull out some papers from the lower most drawers of her cabin desk. 

"Nice drawer you have here" said Raj, dumbly. 

He got a quizzical look from the girl. 

Embarrased and realising what he had said, he corrected himself "Nice cabin you have here......I mean its nice and airy......Nice ventilation." 

The cabin had no windows. 

"Otherwise its a pretty hot day" Raj continued...."I mean outside...outside....." The girl looked at him from above her spectacles sharply for a second, but then dropped her eyes to the papers that she was scrambling. Raj thought that he saw a shadow of a smile on the girl's face, but almost a moment later, he was sure he had just imagined it. 

Raj had now become silent, because part of him realised that he wasnt in his right senses !! He was mesmerized by the girl's presence and had already started imagining the stuff in romantic movies.  

"Ok So you are....." said the girl 

"Raj....Raj....." Raj said hurriedly. 

"Ok. But your full name is?" asked the girl 

"My name is Rajendra Shyam Gore" said Raj. 

"Ok. Raj....Can I call you Raj?" asked the girl.

"Yes of course....its my pleasure" Raj blurted out again.

"What is your pleasure?" asked the girl, this time smiling slightly.

"Im sorry, I meant to say that its ok, you can call me Raj" Raj said aware that his previous response was again very stupidly framed. At the same time, her smile had tickled his insides again.   

"Ok, so Raj, Im Trisha. I am the HR head here. The HR interview and all the commercial negotiations are done through me." 

After this, Trisha asked questions and Raj replied to all of them. Some of them with a hint of doubt, some of them confidently, but most of them in a 'stuttering' manner. 

"Ok. Ok. But Raj, can I ask you something? Why do you stutter so much while speaking? It could be a problem while you are doing a presentation....We want a guy who is good with clients..." said Trisha.

"Sorry....sorry madam...." 

"You can call me Trisha." said Trisha. 

"Oh can I? Thank you so much.....Uh.....sorry Trisha what I meant was that I am only stuttering because of you.........ummm.....no I dont know......" Raj replied. This time he was totally aware of his stutter. 

"Ok. You know what Trisha....." sighed Raj. "Its just that I am so nervous.....since this is an interview" 

In his mind he knew that he was just so captivated by this phenomenal beauty in front of him !! His ears had been red since he was inside the cabin and he feared that Trisha might see smoke coming out of his ears !! The stuttering had a different reason to it !! 

Finally after what seemed like an era, Trisha finally told him "Ok. Raj that kind of concludes our interview, unless you have any other questions". 

"No, dont have any other questions" 

"Would you like to have a coffee?" asked Trisha. 

"Sure sure....where should we go?" Raj responded...........a weird kind of response again. 

Trisha smiled at him and this time it was a dazzling white smile, her even white teeth showing and said "There is a coffee machine....let me take you" 

There was something different again with this smile - it was kind of mischievous and as if she was partly amused and aware that the guy in front of her had gone bonkers over her. However, whatever the meaning to the smile, it made Raj's heart melt....He felt as if someone had struck him....he started seeing lightning bolts and stars around him. 

"The coffee machine is here. Ill just go to the washroom and come" said Trisha. 

"Ill come to the washroom too...." said Raj. 

"What?" asked Trisha.

"I mean Ill go to the washroom too...." "need to relieve myself so badly..." said Raj unnecessarily. 

Trisha laughed again throwing her head back this time. Her laugh sounded like a squeal of pleasure in bed, thought Raj and the tightening feeling intensified. Worried that she may see the rising 'moutain' in his pants, he rushed off to the washroom. 

Once he was finished, he strolled upto the coffee machine and waited for Trisha to come. He saw her through the transparent partition door. She had let her hair down and walked easily with grace. When she came through the door, Raj noticed that her hips were quite large. The saree - like the blouse was hugging her hips tightly. Her pallu was like a broad strip pinned onto blouse at the shoulders. Her lean arms were well toned. Her complexion was flawless. A few beauty spots were visible even from a distance. Her hair was smooth, silky, voluminous and had a brownish tinge to it. It fell right down to her hips.  

"Hello Raj...please help yourself, the cups are kept here in the upper cabinet" said Trisha. 

Raj was looking at Trisha's cups. 

Trisha stretched and reached out on the upper cabinet. Raj was standing alongside and noticed that her butts were quite small compared to her hips. Raj got his cup out too and they enjoyed a cup of coffee. Once they were done - 

"Well nice to meet you Raj. Hopefully we will see you soon !!" said Trisha. 

"When? When can I see you again?" asked Raj by mistake sounding like an utter despot, which he was in this case !!. 

Trisha smiled again - this time the mischievous smile, which had made Raj's heart melt. 

"Well, as I said, the selection review process takes time, if you are selected, hopefully WE will see you  soon !!" said Trisha, emphasizing 'WE'. Raj was quite sure that she had read his thoughts quite clearly. 

"Alright, bye then, pleasure meeting you, Trisha" Raj extended a hand. Trisha shook it and held it for a fraction of a second longer than necessary, Raj felt. But maybe it was just his imagination, he thought.......or was it a signal? 

"Ok. Ill go now, you take care" said Trisha just waiting there, as if she did not want him to leave. 'Take care?' what sort of a farewell words are those? Does she care for me? Is it another signal? 

"Yeah. you too b....uh Trisha" Raj caught himself at the last moment. He had almost said "Yeah, you too baby!!" 

"Oh, Trisha - can I get your mobile no. please?" asked Raj. 

"Oh sure, sure Raj. Here it is" She pulled out her card and gave it to him. 

Raj left. At night, as he was lying down, he pulled out her card from his wallet and kissed it. 

And with a picture of Trisha in her gorgeous chiffon saree plastered in his mind, he slept blissfully - hugging a pillow.
