– N A T A S H A –

"Why did you call me so urgently? It's just seven-thirty." Divya said while checking her watch and I sighed. They had put down the offer to meet in the morning just because they were busy. I had to remind Divya again about our meet-up as she had already forgotten it.

"Nothing. Just to talk. You know how your other-halves are. Shrey must be waiting for Diya while your husband would be waiting for you. I don't want their curses for keeping their love away from them." I gave my speech and she rolled her eyes.

"There's nothing between us. You know it too."

"Time changes."

"What would you like to order?" One of the waiter came towards us and asked.

"One pineapple cake, one chocolate cake, a mocha, one serving of Rasmalai and gulab jamun, one burger and some French fries for me." Divya ordered and everyone, including me, Diya and the waiter looked at her with shock. "What? These all are edible and made for eating. They're not made only for clicking photos."

"You must be having strong metabolism to eat these in evening." The waiter said and we giggled.

"That was a compliment you idiots. Atleast I can eat all these. Not like you Natasha! You need to control your diet instead of enjoying them."

I asked for Americano while Diya ordered cappuccino. When our order arrived, Divya was all ready to jump upon it. "Wait! Let me click a photo and post it." I shouted and she made a grumpy face.

"This tastes amazing." Divya moaned while having her rasmalai.

"You can eat without shouting too." I glared and she smiled.

"Diya! You can eat it. You're not any actress." Divya urged Diya to have a bite but Diya being Diya stayed motionless. "Are you afraid that Shrey would leave you if you turn fat? If he's like that, it's better to leave a man like him as early as possible. Instead, focus on your health, rather than dieting."

"You're right. I should eat more too. But, what if I become fat and he doesn't like me anymore?" Diya asked and I rolled my eyes. As per now much I know Shrey, if he wants to spend his life with her, he's ofcourse serious and won't matter physical features.

But we can't underestimate anyone.

"Then he's not a man." Divya answered while biting her burger and I choked on my coffee, making it spill all over the place.

"Not a man!" I couldn't control myself from laughing. My brother is not a man?! Why do I find it so funny?

We finished our snacks and were about to leave when we saw Ayaan and Shrey walking into the restaurant. Diya was about to call Shrey but I closed her mouth aggressively with my hand.

"Stop acting like a mindless girlfriend and think for a moment. Why do you think they're here? He's not here to meet you. They must be planning something big." I glared and they nodded.

"Hide down!" Divya whisper yelled and we did the same. We hid under the table as both the men were sitting on our adjacent seat. Every seat had privacy wall or else there was no way we would've been able to hear them while hiding.

"So! What advice do you need?" I heard Shrey's voice as he asked Ayaan.

"Look! It's not that my charm doesn't work anymore. It's just that she isn't smitten by me. She's different from others." Ayaan said and I looked up to Divya with shock.

"Is he having an extramarital affair?" I whispered and she shut me up.

"I don't know. Let me listen what they're talking about."

"Alright. As per how much I've seen her... I mean how much I know her after meeting her, I'm sure that she's different but just the similar to other girls."

"How?" Ayaan asked.

"Take my Diya for an example. She's quite, sweet, kind and what not." Shrey boasted about his Diya while she was busy blushing.

"Stop blushing. He's five metres away." Divya said to Diya and we concentrated on their talks.

"She loves flowers, instrumental music and fragrance of rosemary. It's easy for me win her heart after knowing this. Wherever she's angry or sad, I gift her these things and her mood changes instantly. Think something about her too. What does she like?" Shrey asked Ayaan.

We both moved our gaze to Diya, who was by now red with anger. It was obvious for her to be angry. How can Shrey use things to buy her feelings? How can he even call it things! I never knew he could say something like that!

We all came out from beneath the table and stood up, walking out of our seating area. As Shrey's gaze fell on Diya, he asked her, "Diya you're here?" Diya looked at him without any expression. Anger was the only thing dripping from her eyes and her jaws were clenched. She moved from the sight and walked out of the restaurant.

"Yeah! We all are here." Divya said angrily and walked away.

"Tsk tsk tsk. It's really shameful of you both. Both of you are going to lose your girls and I'll take them with me. Losers!" I walked towards the boys, leaned down on their table and laughed.

"What? But why are they angry?" Shrey asked and I rolled my eyes.

"Diya is angry cause you compared her feelings with materialistic things. Whereas Divya is angry because you're busy in catching some other girl. In short, an extramarital affair."

"Natasha!" I heard Divya shouting and walked to her, leaving both the male fools together. Paying the bill, we sat in the car and I started driving.

"Where are we going to? I'm sure you're not going to your places?" I asked and Diya's answer shook me like anything.

"To the bar."

Divya and I looked at her with shock. She was the one suggesting to visit a bar? She's Diya right?!

Anyways.

I don't have any problem.

"Let's go to enjoy." I shouted in enjoyment and accelerated the car in full speed. In around twenty minutes we reached the nearest bar. "So, what are we gonna do now?"

"Drink!" Diya said and I looked at her with shock. She's not the same Diya, is she?

"Okay! We'll drink with you. Don't worry." I said and they nodded. Divya ordered water and everyone narrowed their eyes at her. Even the bartender had a distasteful look. At last, she ordered beer and we sighed.

"Tequila." I said.

"Vodka!" Diya ordered.

This girl is gonna have a terrible hangover tomorrow!

Bartender instantly served all the drinks and we toasted. Diya started drinking as if there was no tomorrow. Poor girl! I slowly sipped the tequila in my glass, finishing the sunrise view sip by sip.

Divya drank a whole glass of beer in a single breath and finished two more mugs in another ten minutes.

While looking around, my gaze fell on a particular man who was dancing with a lady, being dangerously close to her. "Isn't that man Shrey?" I snatched Diya's attention and pointed towards a man. "He's dancing with Nikita!"

Nikita was his ex!

No, not ex.

Just a girl who's behind him for no reason.

And nani was behind Shrey to make him marry her.

I still don't know how the matter resolved.

"Is he really Shrey?" Diya asked while sobbing and I patted her back.

"He looks like Shrey."

"But why?" Diya asked.

"Because his hairs are always gelled straight, standing up. And, this man's hair are gelled too. You know....." Natasha stopped in middle as I felt a burp nearing up.

"What?" Diya and Divya asked at the same time.

"My brother's hairs are always straight. His hairs are always like this from the time he was born." I said and laughed with Diya.

"Wait! This means he's Shrey?" Diya stopped laughing as the thought hit her. "I hate him. Let's have a breakup party." We toasted our drinks and drank it.

My brother is an asshole!

"Yeah sure." I looked around while slurping the drink and found a man kissing a girl. "Wait! Isn't he Dhruv?!"

That man looked like Dhruv.

No, he was Dhruv!

And the girl?

Samaira?

No.....

I cried over my fate and finished another glass.

"Yes. He's Dhruv! He has glasses too. It's a sign of him being Dhruv. I've always seen Dhruv wearing glasses." Divya said while sipping the beer in her hand.

"I hate him! At first, he never saw my love for him. And now, he's kissing a girl. I hate him. I hate him... I hate him!" I cried and shouted while beating the counter. How can he do this to me?!

I stopped crying when I saw Divya's husband kissing a lady too hard. "Isn't he Ayaan?" I shook Divya's arm and informed her.

"Is he really Ayaan?" Divya asked.

"It doesn't matter! Look, he's kissing a girl." I said and she increased her pressure on the glass.

"I won't go to him. He's cheating on me. I'll leave him." Divya snapped and snatched my tequila shots.

"You're drinking my drink!"

"We're friends, right?"

"Of course we are." I smiled and hugged her.

"Am I not your friend?" Diya asked as she smiled.

"You too are." I said and we hugged each other.

"Shrey cheated on me!"

"Ayaan cheated on me!!"

"All the men are same." I said while hugging them more closely.

"I'll call him and break up with him." Diya said and broke the hug chain. She called Shrey and shouted, "You! Let's break up." As she cut the call, she started crying.

I should call him too!

I hate you Dhruv!

I picked my phone up and tapped on his ID. As he picked the phone up I shouted, "Hello, you ice-cube face man! I hate you! Let's break up!"

"Is that Natasha?" He asked and I hummed.

"Yes I am."

"Someone's around you?"

"Yes. Divya, Diya and I. We all are here. Still! I hate you. Bye!" I yelled and was about to cut the call when I heard him shouting.

"You're in a bar, right? Can you give the phone to someone else who isn't drunk?"

I hummed and passed the phone to the nearest bartender. "Excuse me! He wants to talk to you." I told him while pointing towards my phone.

I looked at his expressions while he was busy talking to Dhruv. That man even told him the address!

Even if he comes here, I won't listen to him!

He was kissing a girl!
