“Raj isn’t it so nice every­body in our group has found their love. I wished I also had one.”

“You have one but the prob­lem is you don’t have the guts to tell her.”

“Its not that Raj. I want to tell her but I am afraid she may say no.”

“Rohit you love her don’t you. Then what’s the prob­lem. When you love a per­son you should not expect any­thing in return. If you expect some­thing than its an insult of love. so what if she says no will that end your love for her. If so your love is not true.”

“You are right. But what to do it is a human trait. We can­not accept a no.”

“Yes. But don’t let it stop you from lov­ing her.”

“You are right. Any­ways what should I wear today to the disco.”

“I com­pletely for­got, you are going to the disco for the first time. Well any kind of casu­als would do. A nice t-​​shirt and jeans will be just fine.”

“Any­thing else.”

“Noth­ing else. You know how to dance and that’s enough just fol­low your heart and dance to the beat.”

“Okay Raj I will leave I will meet you at 6’o’clock in the park­ing lot.”

“Okay.”

I had a small after­noon snap and then got dressed up for the evening. It was 6’o’clack and I rushed down­stairs. Nisha and Rohit were already there and wait­ing for me.

“Hi guys sorry to be late. Nisha you are look­ing good. Rohit you too are look­ing cool.” I said.

“Nisha will you come with me tonight. Raj already has a part­ner.” Rohit said. Way to go Rohit.

“Well I would love to.” Nisha. That’s the way.

“Well let’s go over to Diya’s place and Pick her up. We drove off. Nisha sat behind Rohit. Diya was wait­ing for us out­side her house.

“Where the hell have the three of you been. I have been wait­ing for quiet some­time.” Diya said lit­tle angry.

“Its not my fault. These two were tak­ing time.” I tried to prove my innocence.

“Hey you were the one who kept us wait­ing.” Nisha.

“Okay sorry .” I apol­o­gised. ”well Diya I was late because I was get­ting some­thing for you. Here this is for you.” I handed her a small gift.

“What is it?” Diya asked.

“Open and see it.” Diya quickly opened the rapper.

“Wow choco­lates. These are my favourites.” Diya was excited. “oh thank you janu. You are so sweet.” She gave me a big kiss.

“Hey if you two are over and done with shall we move.” Rohit.

“Alright let’s go.” I said and we headed towards anti­clock. On the way we moved along­side and kept talking.

“Nisha have you been to anti­clock before.” Rohit.

“No.” Nisha.

“Well its one of the best disco’s in Cal­cutta.” Rohit. Very good Rohit you your­self have not been to it.

“I love to dance.” Nisha.

“Rohit is also a very good dancer.” I said.

“Really, it will be great fun.” Nisha.

“Here we are, guys lets get ready to rock’n’roll.” I said. I bought the passes. And we all entered.

The place was just jam packed. Awe­some music. Lovely and hap­pen­ing crowd. Light­ings were also just per­fect. Ideal for peo­ple of our age group. Today the DJ had come from out­side and he was really good. I was dying to get on to the dance floor. Diya and I just jumped in.

“Rohit lets also go.” Nisha.

“Sure. Let’s go.” Rohit. The two of them too joined in. I could see the joy on both their faces. We danced for a while.

“Hi Nisha.” Some­body called. We all looked up, it was Piyush.

“Oh hi.” Nisha.

“Care to dance with me.” Piyush.

“Well sure. Excuse me Rohit.” Nisha. Rohit went over and sat in at a cor­ner table. I did not like it. Nisha and Piyush were enjoy­ing the music.

“Diya get Rohit out here in the mid­dle.” I asked Diya.

“Okay.” Diya said and went over to Rohit. “hey Rohit come let’s dance.”

“Well I don’t have a part­ner.” Rohit.

“You can dance with me.” Diya said and pulled Rohit to the cen­tre. “Raj if you would excuse I would like to dance with Rohit.”

“Hey no prob­lem.” I went and sat. In the mean­time Piyush left and Nisha came over to the table.

“Hey Raj what are you doing here.” Nisha.

“Well Rohit’s danc­ing with Diya and besides I needed a break.”

“Shall we go and dance.”

“Okay lets go.” Nisha and I moved on to the dance floor.

We danced for a cou­ple of num­bers and then Diya and I got back together. So did Nisha and Rohit. Although Rohit now did not look much inter­ested in dance. After some time we decided to leave. We went over to a nearby eat out.

“Oh the evening was amaz­ing. I had a lovely time.” Diya.

“Me too. Rohit you dance very well.” Nisha.

“Thank you.” Rohit said softly.

“Nisha how come Piyush was here.” I asked.

“He had come with his friends.” Nisha.

“Oh is some­thing going on between the two of you.” Diya.

“No. he is just a nice friend.” Nisha.

“The way you were danc­ing it did not seem so.” Rohit. Look­ing jealous.

“Are you jeal­ous Rohit.” Diya asked.

“Me jeal­ous of that model no way.” Rohit try­ing to dust of his hands from everything.

“Well he would have been danc­ing with Diya I would have been jeal­ous.” I said.

“Really. Why can’t see me dance with another good look­ing guy or what.” Diya try­ing to tease me.

“Yeah I would like my girl to stay with me.” I said.

“So sweet.” Nisha.

“Well guys what’s the plan now.” I asked.

“Well let’s go home.” Rohit

“Yeah we should leave now. “ Diya.

“Okay Rohit you drop Nisha home I will take Diya.” I said.

We left Rohit took Nisha home and Diya and I went for a drive.
