Banana nights.. err.. nightouts

So, without any rubbish intro, i'd just continue from where i left before.


Sometime about Midnight

The official party ends, and my eyes gleam with excitement. This was the moment I had been longing for. It was the idea of a nightout that had lured me into coming here in the first place. We move towards the road in front of the science block, and bid other guys goodbye. Then I see my very dear friend Mafla, who comes up to us, cracks a few of those lame jokes, and asks us to leave from the place asap. else it'd be trouble for him. We understand that he's way too drunk to be making sense and we just shrug him off.

Initially, as planned, about a dozen guys had agreed for the nightout, but as it was deemed, about half of them had to back out. It all starts with Gaurav, who supposedly can't come since he's supposed to drop his car off at his home at all costs, but all of us know the real reason. Koi naa bhai! sab pata hai! :D :P

Next, Anuj and party disappear. Gupta's parents have denied. I try talking to them, since his parents believe that I am one sensible and mature guy (:P :P), they usually agree to what I have to say, but unfortunately, not this time. In the meanwhile, Abhinav and Aman go to meet Utkarsh. The agenda - booze. Now, I wanted to go too, but I was kinda busy handling Gupta. And then, the mention of booze freaks JD out. He is one guy who probably thinks all the cops on the road wud be there to get us. So, unluckily for me, that means a dry night. WHAT THE FUCK!!

12:30 am

As we wait for Abhinav and Aman to return, me and Samat exchange a few random words. He was very pissed at the sight of a person he calls, chicchhad. And was telling me how he got clicked with his "enemy" of 4 years. I am cribbing about the lack of booze to Ankur, who tries his best to pacify me, and assures me that we're gonna go bananas after the last exam. Now, that sort of talk cheers me up. In the meanwhile Jangid has also gone to change, since he fears that he'd look out of place if he chooses to remain wearin that sherwani for the rest of the night. Ahh! who said that only women are vane.

12:45 am

Delays. And more delays. Gosh! I start getting restless. But, then Abhinav returns with Aman and we decide that all of us wud meet at Mech Parking. Afterall a tribute was due to the place where most of us had spent our times at college, besides T-5 canteen. What follows is another session of frustrating delays and what happens next, is probably the worst. Samat has to pull out for his dad is furious.
OMFG!! Samat ke bina kya "mezze" aayenge yaar!?
I guess that was the WTF! moment of the night.

1:00 AM

A call from our beloved Guruji, results in another delay. And by this time even Abhinav's patience has worn thin. Now that is something rare, for Abhinav is the gentleman of the group and one doesnt see him enraged. Luckily we hit the road soon. Now its just 2 cars and 7 of us. India Gate is the place we head to.

2:00 AM

Reach India gate, only to find it almost deserted. :| But then, we simply cudnt leave the place just like that, so we all decide to have an ice cream. We bump into harsh, and a few words and guffaws later, the group decides that the next destination be Comesum at nizamuddin station. So, we make our move.

2:45 AM

We find the place bustling with activity, which was a big relief after the India gate goofup. But MAN! this was even better than we cud have imagined. Now we know for sure where the hottest girls in delhi can be found!! It's gtta be this place!! Me and Jangid decide to get us all some food, since i havent had my dinner yet, but chuck that, I know its more of an excuse of having an opportunity to "scan" the place. XD
After some more jokes, more ogling at people of the "fairer" sex, someone comes up with an idea of going to the chaiwala/dhabawala mentioned in some chetan bhagat's book. Now, the idea sounds ridiculous as such, but the opportunity of a long speedy drive revvs it up for us, and Bang! thats our next stop!

4:00 AM

While none of us is even sure that such a place exists or not, but we think What the heck! Well, the drive was fun, as Abhinav put down his foot on the pedal many a times and we all felt the surge of adrenaline. :D Meanwhile, in the other car, Ankur is blasting people away to glory and people in there are having fun. Aman almost sleeps in the backseat, and me and Abhinav chat a bit about music, career plans etc. We did not expect to find the roads empty since the Delhi-Gurgaon highway is one of the busiest ones, but a long line at the toll was definitely a shocker at 4 am. Whats an even bigger (and later, as we discover pleasant) surprise was that there indeed is such a dhaba, and it is full of life at 4 AM. We park the car and walk towards the dhaba, and stumble upon some "interesting activity" going on in a car nearby, but anyway the girls in the car are H-O-T. Jesus Christ! why didn't I do a summer job at convergys!?
We spend the next couple of hours enjoying the food, conversation and the "view" around us. Sheer pleasure! and loads of it! :D

At about 5:30 AM, we decide that its time we make a move, coz JD had begun to feel a bit sleepy and that sounded dangerous. On our way back, while i was looking backwards, i somehow felt like clicking this. I guess it pretty much matched with the lyrics of the song that was running through my head at that time.

Once I had a reason
Don't know what it could be
And the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see

Well I sang to myself
That I want to be free
But the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see
