Second Shot
BANGKOK
4th August 2015
"Your order?" asked the bartender.
"Two single shots of bourbon; one shot of tequila and a Shirley Temple for the lady of the hour!!" he turns towards her and asks, "Is that even a saying?" and chuckled.
"Shots of bourbon" - she thought. She was not listening to Yash anymore. She mused over the day when she had met HIM. She comes back to reality when Yash yells enthusiastically in her ears,
"Aaj toh peele yaar! It is your day!"
"Exactly. My day. My wish. I don't drink." she smirks at him. The bartender serves their drinks.
"Cheers!!" said everyone, standing at one corner of the bar.
"Congratulations, Babe!! You nailed your dream job!!" said Yash and hugged her in a friendly manner.
"Thanks, dude! Thank you, everyone!!" she smiled at her friends who were enjoying their drinks. Yash gulps down his drink and says,
"I will miss you so much yaar!! When are you leaving??" he asked sadly and pouts.
"Don't worry I am here for another 2-3 weeks to pakaofy you!"she replied and pulled his cheeks which made him smile.
"Toh we are gonna party like anything these last few days, fir kya pata kal ho na ho?" he winked.
"Eeww. Yash! What a filmy line! Try all these on your bimbo girlfriends, ok? Mereko firse bola na toh jumm ke maar paregi!" she replied smacking him on his shoulders.
"R, how long do we have to wait for our table, you should have reserved it from before!" scoffed Brooke.
"B, is it my fault? You guys just picked me up from my house and demanded for a treat!!" she mocked.
"Calm down, you guys! We don't want a cat fight here today!" said Rick with his hands up and kisses Brooke's cheeks. Brooke blushes in response.
"I'll go and check how much longer we have to wait!" said Yash.
"Wait! I'll come with you!" replied Roshni and goes with him to the reception.
"Oye Billi, let me talk to her ok? Just see how she falls in my charm and gives a table to us!!" he whispers to her and walks to the receptionist.
Roshni rolls her eyes and stands at a distance from the reception waiting for Yash to return.
"Hey, I am Yash Mehra and I must say you look pretty in . . "started Yash.
Roshni looked around, it was crowded. She knew how difficult it was to get a table in this hotel. They were waiting at the bar for almost one hour now and it looked like they needed to wait for another. She sighed sulkily.
"Sir, has arrived. C'mon move fast!! I don't want anything to be messed up today! This is the first time he is coming here!!" the manager said in a hushed manner to his staff.
Looking at the sudden change in the behavior of the staff members, Roshni could guess that the owner of the hotel must have come. Yash was still busy flirting with the host; she turned to look at the entrance to see who the owner of the hotel was. A white Limousine arrived at the gate. The security strides towards its door and opens it. He puts his feet on the ground and leans to get off the car.
Shiny black shoes, black pants, white shirt, black slim tie, black blazer - "The guy has good taste in clothes" she thought. She looks at his face at last. She blinks her eyes several times to see whether she was dreaming or was it actually HIM. She stood at her place awestruck. He was engrossed in greeting the hotel staff and receiving flowers from them. There was something different about him this time. His behavior was formal and detached, unlike what she had assumed him to be.
"He is the owner of the Hotel!! How can he be friendly with his employees?! But he didn't seem like a guy who would be like this! Why am I disappointed? After all, this is how all affluent people behave with others! Why do I expect something else from him? Oh, God. What if he sees me? Does he even remember me? Roshni, cool down girl." - she thought and tried to shake off the nervousness creeping inside her.
She turns around and glances at Yash who was still flirting. She nervously starts stamping her feet in anticipation of what's going to happen next. From the corner of her eyes she saw him walking off towards the restaurant in a rush. She closes her eyes as he walks past behind her.
"Bhagyashree??"
She slowly opens her eyes and looks at him standing in front of her with an overwhelming face. Before she could say anything to him, he takes her by surprise by hugging her. He touches her waist slightly; an electrifying thrill runs through her body. His smell was intoxicating; she restrained herself from touching him.
"What a pleasant surprise!!" he said loosening the hug. Roshni was dumbstruck.
"Uhh..you do remember me, right? I am Siddharth! Siddharth Khurana? We met in London -" he started unsure of what she was thinking.
"Yes, I know. I mean I do.. I do remember you" she stammered.
"Are you alright, Bhagyashree? Sick or something?" he teased which finally brought her back to her senses.
"What do you mean?" she shot at him.
"Ahh.. I thought you lost your violent streak since we first met!" he responded with a grin.
She rolled her eyes in annoyance, which made him laugh out loud. He looks around and asks,
"Did your date stood you up?"
"He wishes!" she replied.
"So, you ARE on a date?" he stresses.
"Why are YOU interested?" she asked him raising her eyebrows. He shrugs his shoulders.
"Well, I came with my friends to celebrate but looks like the waiting line in your restaurant is totally gonna rip off our mood!" she said sourly looking at him.
"Ryan?" he calls out.
"Yes sir?" said Ryan.
"She is my guest. Tend to whatever she needs." he winked and looked straight in her eyes.
She looks at him questiongly, he fumbles and says,
"I meant arrange for a table for her and her guests."
"Yes Sir!!"
Siddharth looks at his watch and says,
"I have an important meeting right now. How about we catch up after my meeting and your dinner?" he asked with hope in his eyes.
"I don't know -"she started.
"Hey! I don't want to hear any excuses! You owe me one." he said and turns to leave. She looks at him as he walks off inside the restaurant.
"Ma'am how many of you are here?" asked Ryan.
"Uhh.. four."
He leaves to arrange for a table and asks her to wait. Roshni walks upto Yash and taps on his shoulders,
"Yash!! Chodo yeh sab, we got a table!" she said irritably.
"Huh? Table? What are you.. Oh Shit! Roshni I totally forgot about that! But anyway, meet Lucy!" he introduces her to the host. Roshni smiled at the poor girl and then glowers at Yash. He knew he was in trouble.
After The Dinner: Yash and the others had gone to a disco nearby.
Roshni heads for the bar where he was sitting on the stool precisely waiting for her with a beer bottle in his hand. He had taken off his blazer and tie.
"What did you mean with - I owe you one?"she asked as soon as she sat on the stool beside him.
He responds with a smile.
"You don't waste time na? Well you remember last time you made me SO drunk that I was caught later on for drunk driving by the police!" he chuckled.
"Whaat? Is it my fault that you drove when you clearly knew you were not supposed to?" she asked raising her eyebrows.
"More than the drink I think I was intoxicated by you. So, it is your fault!" he said playfully.
She was taken aback with his words as she did not expect him to say this out loud.
"Whatever!" she replied with an attitude.
"So, it is only fair that you drink as I say today!" he replied grinning.
"I am not going to do anything you say. Last time you succumbed to my challenge because you were getting something out of it at the end." she retorted looking straight at the shelves behind the counter.
"C'mon, you don't seem like the loser type! If you want we can keep the same challenge this time too!" he winked as she glared at him. She takes out money and keeps it on the counter.
"Yeh paise rakho, mera bill complementary karne ka koi zarwat nahi tha." she said and gets up to leave.
He holds her hand and says,
"I am not going to take this money! Are you scared that you can't hold the liquor in and you will fall for me?"
"Hey! Shots of vodka here! Keep em coming!" she said to the bartender while she kept looking at him with a defiant stare. He beamed with happiness.
"I will do this and I will win but you will take the money at the end." she said and tosses down the first shot with a fierce look.
He claps appreciating her confidence and takes a sip of his beer.
"So, it's been like what a year or more perhaps since we met? What were you upto these days?" she asked.
"We met on my graduation day, right? Oh, what a coincidence!! It's been exactly one year today!" he said surprisingly.
"God and his mere coincidences!" she said flatly.
"You look different, see I had told you, you would look better without those geeky glasses!!" he said staring at her intensely.
"You look different yourself! The entire cool-dude-boy outlook has changed to a classy-rich-businessman one!" she said while twiddling the empty glass on her hands.
"Are you drooling over my new look and did you just call me Classy?" he teased.
"Get over yourself!" she retorted.
"What were you celebrating today with your friends, if you don't mind me asking?" he asked curiously.
"Since when did you become so modest?" she snapped.
"Why can't you simply answer my questions without asking a question in return?" he responded.
She raises her eyebrows indicating that he was doing the same. They start laughing together while looking at each other.
"I bagged my dream job." she said finally.
"And that is?" he persisted.
"It's in Paris. Do you know Eleanor Waldorf? She is a famous Fashion Designer and I have been offered a position in her fashion line." she said enthusiastically.
"Wow. That is fantastic. You are pursuing what you wanted! I am so happy for you!! Here, cheers to your success!" he clinks his bottle with her shot. They drink as they smile at each other genuinely.
Roshni felt warmth inside her now. She was a little drunk, but she had to win the challenge no matter what!
"So, what about you? Have you written something yet?" she asked. He was taken aback with her question. She looked at him sincerely, there was something going on his mind. He was looking for words, perhaps. He looked everywhere but her.
"I am talking to you dude." She waved her hands in front of him to gain his attention.
"Uhh.. I don't know what I told you last time, but.. it is just a misunderstanding. I don't write." He muffled quietly.
"If you don't wanna answer then say it. You don't have to lie. I don't like lies." she said sternly.
He looked fondly at her. She was wearing a red off-shoulder dress and her muddy brown curls were all kept onto one side of the shoulder, showing her bare skin. He was enthralled with her, he wanted to touch her; slowly unknowingly his hands rose up to touch her exposed shoulder. Before he could do that she turned towards him which made him take his hand back and he said,
"I never told my father about my passion for writing. He was overjoyed that his son had finished his studies with good grades; I couldn't rob him from this happiness. So, I started looking after the business and he is taking a break now, relaxing for a bit. This is not that bad. I like it." he said and took a sip of his beer.
"Not that bad - You like it! Please cut the crap! I can clearly see it on your face!"she smirked at him.
He kept quiet as he didn't want to talk about it any further. She said at last,
"I still think that you should tell him. Keeping things in your heart will only make you suffer more. Writing is your outlet - just admit it. All this business stuff will suffocate you after a point. I am sure that your father will understand. I have heard about him, in the news and on the internet. From what I have read, you guys share a great bond and -"
"You researched about me?" he asked incredulously. She was dumbfounded.
"Uhh.. No.. I didn't.. I didn't research about you! I said I HEARD about your father. Are you deaf?" she snapped.
He was amused with her reaction and he escaped a soft chuckle admiring her more.
"Bhagyashree, you are ado -"
"You know what I wanted to ask this question since the first time we met. I couldn't take my mind off this. Who the hell is Bhagyashree? From which decade are you!" she asked with exasperation.
"Abh tum naam bataogi nahi; toh kuch toh bulana parega hi na!! Have you seen Maine Pyaar Kiya? I LOVE that actress.. uska naam tha Bhagyashree..tum dono mein chize common thi..so that is why..." he said playfully.
"Common, kya?" she asked innocently.
"Simplicity, beauty, cuteness wagera wagera.."
He winked at her which made her blush slightly. She puts her hair in between his vision to hide the redness on her cheeks.
"And my love.." he said inaudibly.
"You are the first girl I have ever met jisne ek saal intezaar karwa dia apna naam batane mein!" he tapped her shoulders gently.
"Roshni.." she whispered.
"What? Rohini?" he pretended.
"ROSHNII" she yelled in annoyance which made him beam with happiness.
"So, Miss Roshni tell me about yourself, your family!" he asked.
She keeps quiet, and taps her nails on the counter.
"C'mon yaar, you know about mine! This is not fair." he pouts.
She looks at him, especially his eyes. She could see honesty in them. He really wanted to know more about her. His curiosity intimidated her into spilling it out,
"Umm.. My family is my friends."
"What?" he asked astonishingly. She tosses another shot.
"I ran away from home four years back."
"Why?" he asked unbelievingly.
"Anyone in my place would have done that!! Have you met my mother!! She is the devil in disguise; she will make your life a hell in her home!! Roshni, why are you wearing this? Roshni, you are an emotional fool! Roshni, don't waste my time!!" she enacted. She was inebriated now. Siddharth continues to look at her.
"All I ever wanted from her was love and some time for me, but all she gave me was money. Money is everything. You must know! You have lots n lots n lots of money, right?" she giggled.
"I wanted to do Fashion Designing, but she was tired of me. She wanted to get me married to some butt-head-rich-guy!! What could I do? None of my other family members could speak against her decision. I was doomed. That's when I called up Yash who helped me out from that situation! He helped me come here in Bangkok..and the money that I had saved since childhood from working in an NGO, I used it for my education. I worked here part time too - someone had to clear off the living expenses!" she smiled and looked at him with big eyes.
"So, you have not spoken to your mother till now?" he asked with concern.
"NO..Who wants to speak to that rock! I am happy here.. can't you see?" she said and smiled broadly.
"Yes, clearly you are very happy." he said sarcastically and takes another sip of his beer.
"Last time you gave me a free advice, let me give you one today! Talk to your mother, tell her about your accomplishments.. she will be proud of you.. I am sure she has suffered and understood your value in her life in these past years..."
She gulps down another shot and yells, "OH MY GOSH! It is raining!!"
She stands up immediately and holds his arms as she was about to fall. He holds her by her shoulders and makes her stand straight. He looks at her eyes; it had immense deep pain in them which were hiding behind the clouds of her short lived happiness of rain.
"Come let's go outside na Siddharth!" she begged.
It was the first time that she had called him by his name. He liked the sound of it. He grinned looking at her childishness. He immediately takes her hands and pulls her along with him ignoring the stares of his employees and guests. She takes her to the side alley adjoining the hotel from the service exit. It was raining very heavily; Roshni escapes his hold and runs into the downpour. She twirls with her hands wide open looking up at the sky, feeling the drops of water sprinkling on her face she closes her eyes. Siddharth keeps looking onto her enjoying the rain. Suddenly she opens her eyes and looks at him staring at her; she runs and pulls him outside.
"Feel the rain drops Siddharth!! Just take in the cool breeze that is flowing!! Isn't it so blissful?" she asked him and turns to look at him.
He had closed his eyes and his hands rose up to settle his hair. A wide smile spread across his face.
"This is heaven." he said. He opens his eyes and catches her gawking at him. He takes her hand by her wrists and pulls her towards him.
"What are you doing?" she whispered.
"Ahh.. let's dance." he replied and keeps her hands on his shoulders. Slowly he encircles his hands around her waist and pulls her a little more closer to him. A shiver runs through her spine with the close proximity that they shared. They move in sync slowly from one side to another staring at each other's eye. He could hear her heart pounding against his chest.
She looked at him.His wet hair, his mesmerizing eyes looking intently at her, his perfectly shaped body that could be seen through his white shirt, his wet lips - everything was exhilarating about him. He was looking HOT.
She did not remove her hands from his shoulders. Instead she enclosed them around his neck. Her perfect curls had become wet and entangled, rain drops were flowing down her flawless skin, her eyes were looking at his lips, her wet lips were yearning for his touch as she bit them in anticipation - everything about her was appealing to him. He slowly leans down so that he could fulfill her wish but stopped mid-way as he sniffed the vodka off her.
This was wrong. She was drunk and he did not want to ruin his chances. He immediately steps back escaping her hold on him. She looks at him questiongly,
"Uhh.. Phone call." He points to his pocket, takes out his phone and goes inside to talk. She closes her eyes and hits her face with her palms as soon as he leaves.
On the other side of the door, he calms down his heavy breathing. After a few minutes he comes out to see that it had stopped raining. She was talking on the phone and her back was turned towards him.
"Yeah I am at the side-alley of the hotel. I think I am SLIGHTLY drunk. Yash, don't leave me here and go. Come soon I am waiting."
She turns around to see him gazing at her.
"I should leave now. It is getting late and I am high, all coz of you." she slurred.
"Yeah ok. Shall I drop you off?" he asked out of courtesy.
"No, I have a ride. He is coming." she responded.
"Bye then" he said and turns to leave.
She holds his wrists which make him stop. She stands on her toes and plants a kiss on his cheeks. This took him by surprise and he turns to look at her.
"What was that for?" he asked softly. She shrugged her shoulders and starts walking on the opposite direction.
"Pagal" he chuckled while touching his cheeks where she just kissed.
"Bewakoof!" she whispered to herself and hits the back of her head softly.
Siddharth looks on as she walks towards the main road. She staggered a lot, which made Siddharth to take a few steps in her direction as he thought she would fall. She stumbled over a rock and was about to fall when someone catches her. Siddharth had started striding towards her but he stops mid-way when he heard him say,
"Babe!! You are totally smashed!!" said Yash. He helps her to stand up straight and with concern holds her face in between his hands.
"Are you good?" he asked.
"I am fine, Yash! Let's go home."
He holds her firmly from her shoulders and she leans on him completely as they walk out of the alley.
Siddharth slowly turns and walks towards the service door in a trance.
