*Khushal Pov*
“Khushal! There is a big fight for you now? Are you in?” Anil asked with excitement clear in his voice.
Surprisingly I said “No!”
“What?” He asked me shocked.
“I need to go for some Christmas celebrations.” I replied and drove towards her house.
Parking my bike under a tree where no one will see I walked inside the compound to knock on the door but the door was already opened.
I shrugged going inside and sat on the couch. Waiting for someone to actually come down I just stared at the small Christmas tree.
After few minutes I got comfortable on the couch and slept off thinking they will wake me up when they see me.
*Sanjay Pov*
I glanced at her window to see that she is not in her room as the light is in off mode. I sighed and then paced in my room thinking she will come near the window again for today which she did few hours before and it is already dark.
May be I should just jump inside her room and talk to her. I thought looking at the little distance between our windows where we even passed few books before.
I rushed to our store room and brought the small ladder we have but we are no longer using it. We can extent it to increase the number of steps on the ladder.
Carefully placing it so that it will not move or fall down I got on it but not before locking my door.
I didn’t look down at all fearing about the height. And hey I am not used to pass from windows to windows before.
When I landed inside her room, I sighed in relief. Thank god otherwise I would have got atleast two bones broken if I had fell from the ladder.
I slowly crept outside her room and rushed the steps thinking I can find her atleast in the kitchen but she is not there. So I walked inside the living room looking around and immediately tucked down infront of the couch hearing some sounds from the kitchen.
Then I looked up to see Khushal peacefully sleeping on the couch. What the hell?
*Kalyan Pov*
“I am pretty bored.” Khushi said flopping herself beside me on the couch.
“As if I am having very happy time here.” I said rolling my eyes.
“You could try to be little good brother to me when I have allowed you to date my best friend.” Khushi said hitting on my shoulder.
“Oh please! I don’t need your permission in the first place.” I said hitting her back.
“Ouch! Do you really think she will continue to date you if I tell her that I am comfortable with her dating you?” Khushi asked challengingly.
I sulked in my place thinking what she is saying is true because Ritika can never hurt her friends.
“Haha.. it was so easy to make your face turn like a sore loser.” Khushi said laughing.
“Shut up! I am leaving.” I said giving her the remote for which she would have started a fight for sure.
“Where and that too at this time?” Khushi asked frowning.
“I am going to my friends home.” I replied and walked out knowing she will inform Mom and Dad.
I am not going to visit any of my friends fully knowing that they all must be busy in the parties being held in their houses.
Without conscious I drove towards Ritika house and parked the bike beside her house. How can I go inside and that too at this time?
If Kri sees me then she will kill me for sure. I thought and walked behind their house entering the compound. Then opening the window little I thanked the god because there are no rails, so I jumped inside and landed on the floor holding the kitchen platform for support.
Then I walked outside the kitchen making no sounds and was about to go upstairs but heard a door opening and even the voice of Kri. So I rushed to the living room and tucked infront of the couch closing my eyes.
Then I felt a pair of eyes on me, I looked towards my right to see none other than Sanjay. What the hell!
He gestured me to look front so I did. And this time looking at Khushal sleeping on the couch made me whisper out loud “What the hell!”
“Exactly!” Sanjay whispered back.
We immediately stopped any questions coming out of our mouths hearing a loud chattering nearing us.
“Kritika! How many times do I have to tell you that you should close the door properly?” We both heard Akhila voice and then saw Khushal opening his eyes.
He was about to open his mouth but Sanjay and I placed our hands over his mouth stopping him from saying anything. I held his hands and Sanjay held his legs.
“Don’t say a word! They will kill us.” Sanjay whispered to him and he glared at us.
“Ritika will do some damage to you.” I threatened him and he stopped moving looking at us with confused eyes.
Sanjay and I slowly took our hands away and sighed in relief. He opened his mouth and whispered “What are you both doing here?”
“What are you doing here?” Sanjay and I asked him whispering.
“The movie was amazing Di and I am very hungry.” I heard Kri’s voice.
“I will just heat it and we can have our dinner.” We heard Akhila Di’s voice.
We three just sat there with our stomach growling hearing how Ri and Kri are talking about the food while having the dinner. I do not know about these two but my mouth is really watering mainly for the dessert.
“Ok! I will call Priya Di and start our ritual for Christmas but before that let us get settled to do it.” Ri said and we three looked confused at each other hearing the ritual coming out of her mouth.
“We will sit here and also open the door for some fresh air.” I heard Kri saying and I saw her head from here.
I ducked even more down and made Khushal to duck too along with Sanjay. Then we heard them sitting down. I moved a little from the couch and saw that they sat just backside of the couch on the floor.
“Bring the bottle Ri.” Kri ordered Ri.
“I am not going to do it.” Ri said and they both started fighting then and there.
“Ok, ok! I will go and bring it.” Akhila Di said and got up to bring the bottle.
“Bottle, Ritual. Are they going to get drunk?” I whispered to myself and these both glared at me but they are also thinking the same.
“I am hungry.” Sanjay whispered.
“I am also.” Khushal said rolling his eyes.
“Wait!” I whispered and started crawling away from the couch to see that they have their backs towards me. So I crawled more into the kitchen from below the dining table and took the dessert from the table and crawled back near the couch.
“I don’t like desserts.” Khushal said.
“Good for you! Anyway this is for me not for you both.” I said smirking and started eating the dessert.
“She makes so good dessert.” I moaned a little.
Sanjay just started eating it and didn’t even ask me and I shrugged because I can’t eat the whole thing right. After few minutes even Khushal started eating it making both Sanjay and me to smirk.
“Priya Di is not lifting the call.” Ri whined.
“Maybe she is busy with that Bharghav.” Kri said with anger. Does she always hates the people her sisters date? Maybe except Khushal I guess.
“Surprise!” We suddenly heard a shout and we three jerked a little hearing it.
“Priya Di!” These three shouted and then I saw their heads as they got up and then they ran towards the door where a lady is standing.
“They scream too much.” Khushal mumbled rubbing his ears.
“This is really great surprise Di. We didn’t think you would come.” Akhila Di said and they all started walking towards the couch.
We three stopped breathing hoping that they do not come here.
“How can I miss our ritual? Oh you have already set it up. Let’s start it then.” When Priya Di said I groaned thinking even she wants to drink now.
“Let’s sit down.” Akhila Di said.
We three breathed in relief that they are not coming towards us. Then they all sat down and suddenly Ri and Kri shouted “Let’s start Truth or Dare.”
“Truth or Dare!” We three whispered to ourselves.
