Dialogo sopra: eloping

"Take your documents" Sid said, lighting his Gold Flake.

At first we thought he was joking. He was always a joker, we had a nervous laugh and returned to our serious discussion.

"I'm serious, you fuckers. Take your documents- study certificates, marks cards, passports, bank passbooks, fucking birth certificate if you can get your hands on it. Take it all" He said again. The joke was getting real old, considering what we were talking about.

"Enough with the jokes man, Sid" Prakash intervened. "This is not one of your..."

"Shut up Sid" I pitched in. "Come on man. This is not the time."

"Look man," Sid leaned in and looked at Prakash square in the eyes. "You are running away with your girlfriend. You have no fucking idea if you parents will accept you both..."

"Well they will accept me. They have to! I am their only s..."

"Yeah. Yeah... let me finish you faggy. IF they don't accept you..."

"They WILL accept us. It might take some time. We'll come back with a kid..."

"This faggot!" Sid looked at me. "He doesn't know when to shut up does he?" Sid shook his head and took a long drag on his cigarette.

You couldn't blame Prakash for acting that way. He was jittery. Anyone would be when under that kind of pressure.

"Look here, asshole" Sid said, "You are running away a week before you're about to get married. Pretty sure it'll take more than just a kid to pacify your parents after you've betrayed them."

"I am not betraying them" You could see Prakash being torn between his love for his parents and his girlfriend. His eyes filled up, and he turned away, wiping his tears.

"Of course you did, ya cunt. Your piss poor face couldn't muster up enough courage to tell your parents about your girlfriend..."

"We had had a break up..."

"And now she wants you all of a sudden?"

Prakash looked crestfallen. The tears filled up again.

"Look, dude, you both will have to live on your own in a different city. You'll have to get a new job. She should find a job too."

"She doesn't have to work. I'll take care of her" Prakash beamed.

Sid sighed.

"Fine, whatever. The point is you have to start over. Whatever money you have saved will run out sooner than you expect. So you'll have to find a job; as soon as possible. Let me dumb it down some more so even your monkey brain can understand. If you take your certificates, you can find a good job, and earn a living. Ok?"

"Ok" Prakash replied meekly.

That was the last time Sid voiced his opinions that night. So me and Prakash continued to plot in grave detail about his running away plans with his girlfriend. We parted our ways as the night grew colder.

A week later, Prakash married his fiance of 5 months. That fag didn't have enough balls to go through with our plan. Fucking fag.

Jonny Jonny

            “Jonny! JONNY!” bellowed Jonathan Smith Sr., banging on the apartment door.             “Goddamnit Jonny, open the fucking door!” he banged on the door again, the green flakes on the faded door reverberating. “I know you’re in there.”             Jonathan heard his son scuffling inside, hastily making way towards the door. He could hear his son, Jonathan “Jonny” Smith Jr. clumsily fiddling with the latches on the other side of the door, cursing under his breath every time he fumbled. Jonathan flung the door open, almost knocking over Jonny, and barged right in.             “What took you so long?” Jonathan said, and went straight to the only bedroom in the apartment, not waiting for an answer.          ...

10-ish reasons to love a commuter bike (or why your Pulsar is good, but my Passion is better)

Last week alone I saw two articles about the coveted Royal Enfield Bullet (for the uninitiated, it's the bike that goes dug-dug-dug-dug). So, being the nosey parker that I am, and being a proud owner of a bike in the segment myself, I searched the interwebs for a similar article about the simple commuter bike. Sadly I didn't find a single one of that sort. I never wanted to write this blogpost in the first place, but it seems like the universe has conspired to result in this. Cunning universe. So here are 10-ish reasons to love a commuter bike- 1.   They are cheap AF:  You can saddle up on a 100 cc for under 70k INR. With papers. Accessories included. Not only does it cost less, but it's really wallet friendly when it comes to maintenance as well. These bikes are manufactured with the average middle class commuter in mind. By that I mean, for the ones who have a strong mindset of "don't fix it if it's not broken". The bike will work fine even if you...

The end; and a new beginning

          Before I chew your mind : This blog post is in response to my friend Harish’s vlog . He had done a “user request vlog” once, and I had suggested a topic- ‘ How did you start doing something ’(links at the end). I also promised him that I’d write a blog post on that subject if he ever did that video. He did make that video (he makes some pretty cool game play videos as well, worth checking it out if you are a gamer), and that’s why you find yourself reading this right now.             I think I had an idea of what I would write about when I gave him the topic. However, for the love of God (or Batman) I can’t seem to remember what that was. I’m making it up with this one, hope it’s ok bro :) FADE IN: Superimpose “THE END” on black background FADE OUT TO BLACK: <insert new title>           This is where I (...
