“I was zapped when Roli called one night at about 2.00 AM and said it was extremely urgent. She asked me to meet her ASAP because she wanted to share what had just happened between Manas and her. I could not believe my ears. I could feel the anxiety in her voice and on probing further she just gave an idea — that it was way too private and can’t be shared with anyone.

Knowing how different and difficult these individuals were, I could not imagine them being together. So what must have happened so private? I kept wondering the whole night. Nonetheless, we met at CCD the next day. She came in very well dressed, with a perfect hair-do, and almost a makeover. I could not recognize her with the entire shift in her physical appearance. It got me smiling to assume only one thing – something ‘nice’ had happened between them.

I noticed the twinkle in her eyes, totally thrilled and she couldn’t wait to narrate what had happened. I learned that she had visited his place and it is no guess work what could have happened between them. But what surprised me is that while she was narrating this incident she said, “Neha, I did not really know what I was doing. I had no clue why I pinged him on WhatsApp at 6 AM and started chatting with him. It’s only when he asked me how come I was up so early, I typed – Manas, I am feeling all excited right now after seeing some videos and I am just desperate to make out with someone badly.”
