Saturday Night! - Part 1 ‘Hey! How about this one? Is this good?’ Alisha asked Sameer, as she was trying out a black coloured one piece dress with shining and glimmering black stilettos. ‘Look, I have no idea of what you girls wear and what’s in trend. Let’s go!’ ‘Sam! I’m not coming unless you give me an answer…’ Ignoring her pleadings, Sameer walked out of the ‘Louis Vuitton’ show room in a newly opened mall in city. Alisha and Sameer were best friends since their childhood, since even before, something like since they were sperms. Their families were as close as they had blood relations, and since their childhood only, their plan was to get literally related by bounding Alisha and Sameer in a wedlock. In his deep dreams somewhere, Sameer wanted their plan to become a reality, even Alisha wanted Sameer badly, but they couldn’t confess it to each other, until that one Saturday night! ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 08:00 PM – Party Time Alisha wore the same dress she bought from the mall with Sameer, as the theme of party was black. She looked at her black glimmering watch, and saw only the hours and minutes needles depicting the time to be 8 in the evening. She applied some powder pink lip-gloss, closed the lid, slid the tube into her sling bag which hung across her waist, zipped the bag and walked to the door while making a rhythmic tic-toc sound of her high heels. ‘I’m going for party, mom! BYE…’ Alisha screamed, shut the door of the home, and rushed away. ‘Alisha, listen! Who is going with you? Which party? You never tell anything!’ her mother barely reached the door with her never-ending questionnaire, but Alisha was already gone. She could only see a white coloured i20 zooming off, and the number plate confirmed it was Sameer. She breathed a sigh of relief, locked the gate and called Sameer. ‘Hello, Sameer! How are you, son?’ ‘Evening, Aunty! I’m great, how are you?’ ‘Son, Alisha rushed so hurriedly that she forgot to tell me where she was going, whose party it is…’ ‘Aunty…don’t worry. Alisha’s friend Zoya is throwing her 21st birthday party!’ ‘Again? Three years ago also she threw her 21st birthday party, son! She hasn’t grown up since then?’ ‘Haha, aunty you don’t know the latest trend these days. Throw your 21st birthday party at least five times, before you turn 30!’ ‘Oh God! What will happen to this generation? I’m so worried…’ ‘Aunty, relax! We’ll be back by midnight, and Alisha is totally safe with me, you can trust me!’ ‘I trust you blindly, son!’ Alisha’s mother blessed Sam, he smiled and hung up. ‘She was again screaming over me, right?’ Alisha folded her arms. ‘No! You worry too much. She’s the sweetest mother anyone can have. I wonder why you don’t like her?’ ‘It’s not that I don’t like her. But her constant nagging and inquiries block my breath, sometimes!’ ‘Here we go…’ Sameer parked the car in front of the pub, a guard came and stood by. ‘Zoya’s party, uh, something with a black theme…’ Sameer spoke. ‘Tell him the ‘Vampire-Theme’ he’ll understand’ Alisha hushed into Sameer’s ears. Sameer looked at her with disapproving eyes. ‘It’s third floor! Valet parking?’ the guard asked. ‘Yeah, alright!’ Sameer handed over the keys to the guard and stepped down with Alisha. ‘Hey, hold it…’ Alisha handed over the bouquet to Sameer. They boarded an elevator and reached the third floor. ‘Can’t you tell me?’ Alisha anticipated an answer. ‘What?’ Sameer pressed the button with number ‘3’ engraved on it, and the lift started ascending. ‘Who discovered gravity?’ ‘Isaac Newton? But why?’ ‘See! You can tell me who discovered gravity, but you can’t answer a simple question, that how am I looking?’ ‘You think it’s a simple question?’ ‘What’s so challenging in it?’ ‘Newton was one lucky fellow!’ Sameer looked up, the elevator ceiling had a tiny fan, which was buzzing on full speed. ‘I heard he died virgin, and dying virgin isn’t a very lucky thing, I believe!’ Alisha was touching up her make-up, she pressed her lips to spread the pink lipstick uniformly. ‘Lucky, because he had no woman to ask him how the hell am I looking?’ and I believe that’s a lucky life!’ ‘Yeah, you guys always want us girls to never even ask you anything, then why the hell do you need a woman to be married?’ ‘That’s a stupid question, and hey! What kind of theme is this? Vampire Theme? I mean, are they going to be dressed like…’ ‘Yes! Vampires. That’s why I was thinking to apply red lipstick instead of pink one…’ Alisha’s words were in her mouth, that suddenly, Sam burst off. ‘NOW! Don’t ask me if I have red lipstick in my wallet, no, I don’t! And don’t ask me how are you looking, you’re looking just fine, and pink lipstick is also looking fine!’ Sameer almost shouted, and he anticipated Alisha’s breakdown soon, tears were welling up in her eyes. The elevator beeped, it was third floor. They stepped out, and Alisha held Sameer’s hand gently. By Bj
