And hence, me gulati and ejoy grew very close than before after the PDM thing. And then once, in kuku bhaiya's canteen, we were having the usual and favorite diet coke-ultra milds conversation, where gulati, all of a sudden and in an excited state said that he was planning to buy a bike. Ejoy was like, “I need to see the consequences and then I can decide.” I then told ‘em that I was planning to buy a 4-wheeler, probably an open-jeep(4x4) or a sexy sedan. The next statement was obviously in hyper-excited state, none other than gulati.
“MCD”!!.....
He then told that he will also contribute for the vehicle and not buy a bike. And this time even ejoy was all in for the plan without thinking about the consequences (which he always says that nothing can be thought about the future).
And then the hunt began for the ‘tashan’ filled open jeep. We covered Chandigarh, jaipur, coimbatore, Hyderabad,Bangalore,meerut,dehradun and hence months passed….., exact 13 fucking months passed by and we did nothing.
And now when gulati broke his leg few weeks back, we took him to his home in a scorpio (not ours, twas a hired one). On the way, the conversation began, and this time there was no excitement. I casually asked the driver about the whereabouts of an open jeep around roorkee (the town where we study). The driver reacted positively and said that he would let us know about it as soon as we get back to roorkee from gulati’s place.
We had loads of fun on way towards gulati’s home-gulati’s pain, ejoy’s new beard, bond’s hair loss-everything was fun. And then we had loads of ghar ka khaana and aunty ka daal bhati. Gulati was operated for the bone dislocation and we had to leave back to roorkee, leaving gulati at his home for some rest.
On way back, ejoy had lots of appointments, rather dates to go to!! And we entered jaipur to head on to ‘bond’s friend’s place’-though it took us fucking 90 minutes to head on to ‘bond’s friend’s place’ all because of bond’s confusion in his fucking confused mind. As soon as we reached ‘bond’s friend’s place’, ejoy rushed to the washroom, emptied his bowels, had a shower-in short he got all cleaned up! He then wore a new shirt, specially bought for the DATEs DAY. He actually had 2 dates!! One with …. and the other with ….. (its like I cannot name both of em as they indirectly know each other)…
Well, back to the story, he was getting late, in fact very late to meet his DATEs. We both headed towards scorpio, and then the driver says,”bhaiya,mein gaadi nahin chala raha…bahut thak gaya hoon, aap please chala lo, mein peeche so raha hoon.” The driver slept in the backseat. And ejoy does not know driving car, so I had to become the driver. We then went fast, amazingly fast, jet fast in the narrow streets of jaipur. Neither me nor ejoy were familiar with the way. Finally after asking for directions from the people on streets, we covered fucking 20 KMs in just 18 minutes and this is jet fast speed on city streets. Thanks to ME. I dropped him and went to relieve some tension and smoke for passion ( its passion and not fashion). Later, at night after finishing his day, ejoy tells me that he dated only one as the other felt she is getting late for whatever. (second one ditched bOb aka ejOy!!)
The next day we reached roorkee. Attended all the classes and went back to our hostel. Later, that night, the scorpio driver calls me up and says,”bhaiya,ek jeep hai,bahut mast, gaadi maal hai,black,shine karti hai aur open hai…kal dekh lena aap.” I told this to ejoy and we together phoned gulati. He, in his excited state tone said to take some pics of the jeep n mail him. Next day, we saw the jeep. It was real nice and we were excited. But it was not 4WD. We had talks with the owner and we could not come out with a positive result. Days passed by, gulati came back and then kuku bhaiya calls me up and tells that he has sighted a jeep for us. We had a look at it and it was awesome, though hard to drive. It was a real mean machine which looked more like a mini monster truck. We had talks with the dealer, we were all set for it until yesterday. Initially, we had a deal with the jeep dealer, that we would pay 70k in advance, and take the jeep and pay the rest at the time of registration. Yesterday was the day of ‘advance payment’. The dealer says that he wants 90k and not 70k. !! wtf !!
Me, ejoy,gulati and suar(piggy-boy) contributed 70k for the advance and it was a very tough task. I called up the dealer, asked him for the reason and he says,” bhaiya..dekho humari baat 90k ki hui thi aur 70k ki nahin..app ek kaam karo abhi paise de do, gaddi baad mein le lo…..” ”Maa Chuda”, and I hung up the call.
We were all frustrated and it was as if we lost everything. People around us were laughing and taunting. We were silent. It was our fault.
Then, we thought of a sexy sedan, our second option. This time I called up a friend of mine in gurgaon and asked about second-hand sedan cars. He said that he would sell off his Honda City 1.3 to me. And now, we are happy again, dreaming about the sedan, though ejoy is in more favor of Mitsubishi Lancer than Honda City. But, who cares, he does not know the art of driving…!!
And hence I could finish off the VKT’s class successfully writing this real stuff. Poor VKT, he kept on dictating for 1 hour and I enjoyed writing this in that hour.
And yeah..thanks for reading…and see you again sometime, probably after I own a sedan.
Peace ‘n’ love
