The Blind Date: Part 2
"This week's meeting a blockbuster again!" Samrat announced, adjusting his tie to make it loose.
"We've got the contract again, can you believe it!" Mayank said happily, putting his coat over the chair.
"It's time to celebrate! Bro, today, please!" Samrat pleaded to Mayank with his hands folded.
"Okay, Okay!" Mayank looked happily at his brother.
"Today, 4 'o' clock, caf coffee day! Be there!" Samrat said, rushing out of the cabin.
Once out, Samrat found an isolated spot and grabbed his phone.

"This week's issue a hit again!" Gunjan told Nupur, entering into her cabin with Dia.
"Yeah babes, isn't it rocking?" Dia said.
"Oh yes.' Rocking'." Nupur said.
"Let's go out today Nupur! It's been days since we've spent some girl time".Gunjan said.
"Yes, let's go! Please Nupur! Please, please, please!" Dia and Gunjan begged.
"Okay Guys, chill! Now tell me where do you want to go?"
"Today, 4 'o' clock, caf coffee day! Be there on time!" They said in unison, running out of the cabin.

"Mission 'Blind Date' Part 1 complete. Part 2, here we come." Gunjan said in a James Bond voice.
"By the way, who's the guy?" Dia asked.
"Oh, it's Mayank, Samrat's brother." Gunjan replied.
"Are you kidding me? He's my childhood friend. Oh what am I saying? Samrat is my childhood friend, so Mayank has to be too! This is great! He's such a nice guy! My best friend is going to fall in love with my best friend! "
Gunjan frowned." Don't be too optimistic Dia. What if they don't fall in love?"
"Oh, they will. I know them too well to deny that. They are made for each other."
Dia's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello?"
"Candy, this is Sam here."
"Hey Sam! How's it going?"
Gunjan jumped." Give-me-the-phone! Give-me-the-phone!"
Dia kept her hand on the speaker." No ways! I've had too much of your lovey-dovey side."
"Wonderful. He has agreed."
"You never told me it's Mayank."
"Oh that Chashmish! She told you right?"
"Yes she did. But I'd be happy if you would have."
"Candy, I'm sorry. I thought you won't like Mayank dating-"
"Dumb, of course I will! They are perfect for each other!"
"I know!" Samrat squealed.
"So let's meet, 3:30, caf coffee day!"
"See ya there! Bye!"
"You could have let me talk to him for at least once!" Gunjan complained.
"Oh Shut up Gunji! You'll meet him there!" Dia sighed." What a terror for us."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So what do you want to order? The treat is on me." Mayank said, looking at the menu card.
"Bro, we'll be back in a minute." Samrat said.
"Where are you going?
"Just to the loo. We'll be back!" Benji answered, hurriedly rushing to the washroom.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nupur picked out her phone from the bag and called Gunjan.
"Where are you guys?"
"We're at the caf. Table no. 5. Come fast!"
"Ok! Bye!" Nupur cut the call.
"Table No.5, there it is. Who's sitting there?" she looked at the back of the guy who was sitting on her seat.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mayank looked up at the girl who was standing in front of him, with her hands on her hips.
"Yes?" He asked looking at her up and down.
"Hello? Stop checking me out. Excuse me, but this is my seat. My friends and I have reserved it."
"I'm sorry, there was no sign of 'reserved' on the table. I've come here with my brother and friend and I've been sitting here since fifteen minutes."
"There must be some mistake. You check with your brother and friend, I'll check with my friends."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hello, Guys, where are you? There's some guy sitting here on our table." The worried Nupur asked.
"Nupur, I'm going to tell you something after which you'll hate us." Gunjan replied in a scared voice.
"Nonsense, I'll never hate you guys!"
"You've been set up on a blind date with the guy in front of you."
"I hate you guys."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hello? Guys, have you finished your work? Come here soon. There's some girl saying it's her seat."
"Bro, first promise me you won't get upset."
"You've done some blunder, haven't you?"
"We set you up on a blind date with the girl in front of you."
"You fools! What the-"
Mayank was only greeted by the silence of the phone.
