"And u know what? Mr.Height is so evil that he even comes in my dream to frighten me, He is so..."But before the innocent boy could say anything further a loud voice almost startled him, and his lips curved into a cute pout.
"Please Aakash; for God's sake keep your mouth shut! I can't take this anymore!" Arjun Sabarwal had never ever faced such difficulty in any of his expedition before which he's facing now in a survival camp with Aakash Joshi, the dare-devil journalist.
"I tried every possible way to keep his mouth shut. But I failed, now what more I can do? And if I have to tolerate this nonsense for one more second I'll go mad for sure"-Arjun muttered under his breath. What mistake has he done that he has to face such situation? Oh yes, how can he forget his own foolishness, it was his idea to choose Aakash for this advance training (as Aakash can anytime shoot his video where he can show the world how a great mountaineer he is!) and it was his idea to have a peg of rum in this cold temperature and last but not least it was his idea to advice Aakash to do the same. But he has never thought that his brightest idea will bring out the craziest consequences in his whole life!
(In the evening 7 P.M.)
Ar-(After listening to Aakash's continuous teeth chattering) There is a bottle of Rum in my bag, just go and check in the tent and stop that noise, it's annoying.
Ak-"Yes, you find everyone and everything annoying, but Thank you I don't drink Alcohol"
Ar-"Oye, Don't show your attitude towards me ok? It's for your own good. You'll not be able to keep up the journey tomorrow. Drink it and survive in this cold weather or otherwise stick to your "so-called moral" values and eventually fall ill! Don't forget we have to wake up early tomorrow. Don't know why I chose you to complete this last stage of training."
Ak- "Yeah why did you choose me? And couldn't you find a little lower place in this hilly area? It's too cold here."
Ar- "Who told you to join the best institution of Mountaineering then? Who told you to shoot the Everest expedition huh? The expedition is only a month away from now, how will you survive there? Such a hypocrite! Just leave and let me take rest!"
Akash for the first time realised that Arjun is right. He didn't mind his rude behaviour as one way or another Arjun always thinks practically. The expedition is the only way he can treat his acrophobia, he can't live his life in fear anymore. Much of his annoyance he went into the tent and saw the bottle in Arjun's bag. He has never touched alcohol before not because of any values but because he didn't like the scent of it. He took it out and drank all of it...
(After an hour)
Ar-(he is grabbing Aakash's collar and shaking him madly) "You drank all of it? Are you mad? Are you really that stupid?"
Ak-"Why are you shouting at me? I'm telling you how bad Mr.Height is and you are not at all listening to me! This is very bad, now just keep quiet and listen to me!"
Ar-"Listen to you? Yes, that's what I'm doing; I'm listening to your nonsense chat. Stop this biography of Mr.Height Aakash or I'll kill you!"
