Stree: Haan bey!

Stree: Bass bass, yahin pe rok de
RFB: Gatcha!
Stree: Do I need to sign the roster?!!??

Sometime before that:

Rickshaw: Raja, raja, raja… %#@%@ @^#%$%#@ @# #@%#2
Stree: Appu Raja!
RFB: Really? Man, you have awesome memory!
Stree: \m/
RFB: Does it sound like that? I think it is some marathi song
Stree: The words are not the same I think, but it is Appu Raja
RFB: The music sounds different too!
Stree: Yeh, but it is Appu Raja! It is just like that!

Sometime before that…

Mgupta4: Are you leaving?
RFB: Ye ye!
Stree: Ok guys, I am leaving too. Marathe, lets go!
RFB: I got my phatphati.
Stree: You mean, Ducati??
RFB: Yeh, a 100cc Ducati!! Do you want a lift?
A’jee-K’wale: It is called a ‘ride’, not a ‘lift’!
RFB: Like, ‘pillion’?
A’jee-K’wale: \m/
RFB: Gatcha!
RFB: Lets go Stree!

Sometime before that…

RFB: Stree, Stree… Hey Stree…
Stree smiles across the glass divider
RFB: How about this: “Stree, Stree, Nice Stree”
Stree: What?
RFB: Have you watched the movie ‘UP’? In that there is this little boy who goes around the old man’s house searching for a snipe, calling out – ‘Snipe Snipe, nice Snipe, Come out Snipe… Clap Clap Clap!’
Stree: Yeh!
RFB: So how about: “Stree Stree, Nice Stree, Clap Clap Clap!”
Stree: I will give your supari!

Question: Who had the last laugh?

RBM: Lets go!

Some days later, May 2009, Pune
RFB and RBM… on the way to Durga’s… Honda Activa… Gen NXT helmet straight from World War I…

JM Road…
Bright red lights from the rear of the car ahead of him amaze him. RFB keeps staring at them with “Aww”… as if he has never seen something curvier or redder than them! The curvy red lights come closer to the Activa. Millimetres apart:
Activa: Skreeeeeeeeeeeeech!
RFB: Oh I am sorry. I was staring at those red lights, they were looking awesome. I just didn’t realise that those red lights meant that the car was braking!
RBM: It’s ok! Be careful…

Few meters later, Activa goes past the car with curvy red ass…
RVM: Objects in the mirror are closer than the appear! 4 circles in series, chained to each other!
RBM: Audi!!
RFB: Awesome!

Few kilometers later, Activa goes past a red light…
Mamu: Baju mein aaja.
BRY: Abbe bhaag, woh fine lagaega!
RVM: Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear. Duplicate mamu in bluish grey pants!
Activa: Vrrrrroooooooooooooooooooom!

Few turns later…
RFB: There we are!
RBM: Where?
RFB: Finally! But why is this called ‘Bar and Restaurant’? Are we at the right place?
RBM: Darya!
RFB: Oh freak! I read this Durga!

Few meters ahead…
RFB: Durga! Here it is!
RBM: This is shady! But look at the crowd!

Finally in Durga…
RFB: Bhaiyya Menu?
Bhaiyya: No menu, main hoon!
RFB: Kya hai?
Bhaiyya: Omelette, bhurji, misal…
RFB: Do cold coffee le aao.
Bhaiyya: Cold coffee ka paisa pehle dene ka.

20 rupees and 5 minutes later…
RFB: Awesome! Lived up to expectations!
RBM: Wow!
RFB: Its so homely!
RBM: Yeh!

RFB dials…
RFB: Hey!
Bunty: Hey!
RFB: Kothrud or Kondhwa?
Bunty: Nahin yaar… abhi Koregaon Park.
RFB: Kya yaar… soch rahe the mil lete! Khair…
Bunty: Chalo enjoy buddy!

A couple of cold coffees and misal later…
RFB: Lets the go!
RBM: Lets the go! After some weeks you will also be either in Kondhwa or Pashan… it would be impossible to meet you then!
RFB: Errr!

A couple of turns later…
RFB: Lets go to Jhed Bridge!
RBM: Ok!
RFB: This bridge first goes parallel to the river, then crosses it perpendicular, then goes parallel again! Z!
RBM: So does the river change its course?
RFB: Bleh!!

A few hours later…
SA: Fatty!
RFB: Hey… how was your trip to Mumbai, how was your paper?
SA: Man! Mumbai is so shady! People everywhere, bazaars everywhere… in those narrow lanes there are those tons of people, hundreds of honking taxis and couple of chics moving around! Man! It was all so shady! Oh Man!
RFB: Pune is cool man! Come, lets have Roohafza…

Bleh~ :)
