Suman and Rishi returned home in high spirits after the Elvis event. The two were singing songs aloud, literally bringing the roof down. The two had downed quite a few pegs. Driving back home would have been a nightmare. Thankfully they had booked a cab back home! Rishi believed in dinking responsibly. They got down a little away from the gate and started walking down towards the house.
One thing led to another and the two had a steamy sex session. Suman had never been with a man like this before. It was her first time. She had always maintained that she would lose herself to only the one man who she would marry. But she hardly knew Rishi; and after her run in with the goons and the kidnapping, it had set her thinking all the more.
She walked out of the room and decided to pour herself a drink. She looked at the collection that Rishi had accumulated over a while and chose Black Dog Quintessential. His collection of glasses and other accessories was always a source of his pride. She chose the best one. She had just finished pouring out one for herself when Rishi called out from behind, “Pour one out for me as well.” “How will you have it? Neat or…” “You know fairly well I always like my Scotch neat, no water.” “Yeah of course. But I still wonder if I know you at all” Along silence ensued.
Suman continued, “You know, I always wanted to lose my virginity to the man I would choose to marry. Till the last week, I thought I knew you really well. But now, now I have serious doubts.” “What do you want to know?” “Everything.””Would you be able to digest it?””I want to get married to you. If I have to decide, I need to know all about you! In fact I am not even sure if your real name is Rishi.” Suman screamed.
Rishi started off right from the part when he worked as a software engineer, how he was laid off, how he met Sunny and how Sunny offered him his first case. Suman was not convinced. She felt Rishi was making it all up. He was faking it. Rishi took her to his secret chamber under his bar. Here he showed her all his collection of guns, and all his certificates. They looked authentic. Suman and Rishi came back into the living room.
Suman looked pensive. Rishi was now getting worried. He did not know what was going on in her mind. He prodded her. Suman did not answer. Rishi went back to his room and came back with a box in his hand. He bent down on his knees and “Suman, will you marry me?”

कुछ पल जिन्दगी के अजीब होते हैं,
जाने कितने दोस्त हमें मिलते हैं!
सच्चा दोस्त कोई ना पहचान पाया,
जाने कितने मोड़ पीछे छोड आया!!

वक़्त अब कटता नहीं जाने क्यों,
हर वक़्त बेचैन क्यों रहता हूँ!
बच्चों सा मन ये मचलता है,
ना जाने क्यों उख्डा सा मन है!!

ना मुझे प्यार हुआ है,
ना मुझे कोई बिमारी हुई है!
फिर भी लोग क्यों ऐसे बरताव करते हैं,
बीजी हैं अभी करके टाल देते हैं!!

क्या इस जिन्दगी के कोई मायने नहीं रहे,
क्या हम इतने बीजी हैं हो गए?
मन मेरा दुःखी होता है,
जवाब सोचने पर भी क्यों नहीं मिलता है??

kuch pal zindagi ke ajeeb hote hain,
jaane kitne dost humein milte hain!
sachcha dost koi na pehchaan paya,
jaane kitne mod peeche chod aaya!!

waqt ab katta nahin jaane kyun,
har waqt bechain kyun rehta hun!
bachchon sa man ye machalta hai,
na jaane kyun ukhda sa man hai!!

na mujhe pyaar hua hai,
na mujhe koi bimari hui hai!
fir bhi log kyun aise bartao karte hain,
busy hain abhi karke taal dete hain!!

kya is zindagi ke koi mayne nahin rahe,
kya hum itne busy hain ho gaye?
man mera dukhi hota hai,
jawaab sochne par bhi kyun nahin milta hai??
