Part 5
"How dare you ask her for prom.." an angry Madhu screamed at RK as she pushed him and climbed over him with her knee at his chest while RK almost growled in pain.
"what are you doing, have you gone mad?" He shouted back.
"Yes... i m mad with anger... how dare you ask that bitch for prom..!"
"Get off me..." he managed to scream.
"I wont just answer me" stubborn Madhu had no plans to forgive him.
"Oh my god you crazy..." RK noticed the bean bag chair on one side and he pushed her hard on that, as he was not pushing her away till now in fear that she might hit something and get hurt.
He sat up and took deep breaths.. "Oh My God... I dont believe you almost strangled me.." he said dramatically.
"Okay so now tell me why you asked Dipali for prom?" She asked still determined as she glared at him.
"Come on.. dont forget i have been running behind you since a month...!!" He said not able to believe his ears that Madhu was pointing at him.
"So?" Madhu askes baffled.
"What So.. you didn't respond to me... and of course Rishabh Kundra cant go to prom alone.. so i had to ask someone else.." he said still rubbing his chest as he stated the obvious.
"Wasn't that understood that I would go with you...?" Madhu raised her hands in the air not believing what she heard.
"How is that understood? You have to tell me or atleast say a meagre 'yes'" he argued back.
She flared in anger... "Fine!! Now you see.. I would go with Sultan"
"Sultan!! You dont dare to.." he warned her.
"Of course.. Madhubala Malik cant go to prom alone..." she threw his words back at him as she settled herself casually on the bean bag.
"You don't know him Madhu... He is"
"He is behind me since 20 days..." she cuts him off clearly delighted as she realised that RK didnt want her to go with him.
"You are not going with him Madhu.." he said angrily.
"I am going with him... On your face Kundra.." she scoffed and walked out of the room arrogantly.
The next evening RK was walking with Dipali in the party. But his eyes clearly searched for someone else. Dipali was way too excited to be Rishabh Kundra's date for prom that she didnt notice RK's wavered attention. While RK's eyes were constantly searching for Madhu with that devil, Madhu on the other hand had a similar situation except that she wanted to go infront of RK and show him how much she is enjoying with his enemy.
RK saw them at a distance and before he could notice Madhu's indifference to Sultan, Madhu turned to Sultan with the sweetest smile. After a bit of hide and seek and Madhu acting too much caring for Sultan in RK's presence, RK had walked over to them. Not because he was jealous but because he was worried. He knew Madhu was just doing this to show off infront of him but what he feared was that if Sultan takes her gestures to be wrong he might behave inappropriately with her. Madhu panicked as she thought RK was coming to snatch her away from Sultan but instead he just smiled and asked them to join company.
After sometime the 4 of them were sitting on a table and enjoying food. Sultan though didnt like the idea much but Dipali was just busy stealing glances at RK and showing off the other girls that she is his date. Madhu who was clearly displeased with her behavior decided to teach her a lesson. Now Dipali was wearing a gown that reached upto her heals and was free flowing. Madhu turned to Dipali and with her most naughty smile which only RK deciphered. He knew Madhu was upto something and he panicked for Dipali but he didnt know what she would do.
"Hey Dipali.. Dont you think you should get RK a drink.. I really think he is feeling thirsty." She nodded at RK sympathetically.
Dipali looked at RK who opened his mouth to refute the idea as he knew Madhu was upto something.
"See... he also agrees.. no need to say yes RK.. I know you very well... afterall we are buddies since always..." she laughed playfully.
"Yes I think you are right and Madhu thanks for helping me.." Dipali said with a smile as she stood up.
Frrr came a sound from below. All 4 of them were stunned except for Madhu who feigned. While RK and Sultan looked around to find the cause of the strange sound, Dipali lowered down her head horrified. And there was what she feared the most. Her gown had torn almost upto the knee and in the worst way. She looked around in embarrassment. She couldnt stay there for long and almost ran towards the washroom. As Dipali went away Madhu smiled at a furious RK evilly. He looked down and saw Madhu's heels and he knew she must have pinned Dipali's dress with her heel when she stood up.
Well what else could he do now. He sighed in disappointment. Only way left is give it back to her. Ofcourse he couldnt hurt her or embarass her in public. No way! He would have to do that to Sultan obviously. After around 10 minutes he saw a waiter advancing with a pastry and a soup in his tray. He looked at Madhu with revengeful eyes and somehow when the waiter was walking past them his tray fell on Sultan. And there sat a man drenched in soup and noodles and a pastry to garnish his head. Sultan stood up furiously as he held the waiter by the collar.
"Hey hey! What are you doing man? Its just an accident" RK intervened feeling bad for the waiter that he would have to listen for no fault of his.
"Accident? Do you see what he has done?" Sultan turned to him angrily. He could hear other boys and girls lauging at him.
"Leave it man... clear it up... and u would be as handsome as before.. just leave the poor soul" RK pulled the waiter out of his grip and he ran for life.
Sultan looked around angrily. Then feeling a weight on his head he raised his hand above. There was the pastry still on his head. He held the pastry and took it off. Well.. next second he was out of sight. What else could the poor soul do.
Madhu looked at RK angrily as he sat down on his chair casually as ever.
"What did you do?" Madhu stomped her foot.
"Gave somebody the taste of her own medicine" he said as he took a bite of the pastry that had been on Sultan's head a few seconds back.
Madhu frowned angrily and stood up. She turned around angrily as she walked away. RK looked at her smiling when he notice Madhu's right sandal's heel was about to give away. That would mean Madhu might fall down or hurt her foot. He immediately ran to her as he held her closer to him by the waist.
"Leave me you idiot..." she said angrily.
"Just keep quite and let me handle...
You have broken the heel of your sandal.." Madhu tried to get out of his grip.
"Dont struggle or u will stumble...
And all these people will mumble..." he said in a sing song tone as he smiled seeing around the place.
Madhu looked down and saw her heel which was shaking now. "Ohh it must have come away when i had pulled on to Dipali's gown.." she said disappointed.
"That is still to be dealt with.." RK said in a firm tone..
After sometime they reached home. They lived in adjacent houses. Padmini and Radha relaxed seeing the two coming out of the same car.
"I told you na Padmini... They might go seperate but they would be back together.." Radha said happily.
"Yes Radha.. I am so relieved.. I was really tensed at the thought that this new boy would be with her at this time of night.. who knows how he might be.. These young boys can be really spoilt." Padmini said smiling relieved on seeing Madhu with RK.
But soon they noticed Madhu angrily glaring at RK and then she stomped into the house. While RK too went to his home angrily.
"When would they stop fighting..." Padmini said irritated again.
"Not anytime soon for sure..." Radha said playfully.
