"Are you mad?" exclaimed Rithu....'what has gotten into you'....Rohit was deaf to Rithu...he bent down to pick up a sharp glass piece and was looking at it with an insane smile......Rithu realised the danger that was about to come...she gently pulled the glass piece away from Rohit saying 'give that to me before you do something stupid'.....Rohit continued to stare the glass piece now in Rithu's hands....'What's wrong with you Rohit? Tell us what happened', Nithu shook him back to reality.....Rohit gave a calm smile and sat on the sofa......'oh come on...you came here to share things with us but all you do is cry like a kid' said Nithu loosing her cool....Rithu gestured her to give him some time......'whatever' saying so Nithu went back to finish the climax of her story book.....she started reading when Rohit said 'we were sitting at the coffee shop and having our usual chat like we always do' and started narrating what had happened earlier......
'I want us to be friends' says Neha.
'Yes we are' said Rohit unaware of where this is leading to.
'And will always be' said Neha giving a strong stress to 'always'. Nithu stopped reading in surprise.....
Rohit gave a long look and smiled saying 'enough of your pranks Neha....so how was the movie yesterday you went with your friends? Rohit tried hard to change the topic though his heart was unable to come out of the shock.....'No Rohit....I am not playing....I am serious...I have thought through things....it would be good if we are just friends for the rest of our lives'
'Did i do something wrong?' asked Rohit to himself more than to Neha.....'No...You are great as always...but i have made my decision'
'Everything was going fine' wondered Rohit.....'Yes.....and that is why i have made this decision'
'What do you mean?'
'I mean what i said. I dont want us to discuss anymore on this from now' see you tomorrow same place same time like we always do...bye dear friend'....saying Neha left the coffee shop.....Rohit kept staring at her in dismay till she disappeared out of sight.....
Rithu and Nithu kept questioning Rohit on what could have possibly went wrong....But all Rohit could answer was 'No', 'Dont Know', 'Not that'.....
Nithu said 'we will talk to Neha for you Rohit....dont worry'...Rohit denied saying it will only make matters worse...'But'...'No Nithu...Its over, Its all over....she is gone'....Rohit went back to tears.....Nithu looked at Rithu and was able to make out that Rithu, the master mind of the three musketeers was already chalking out a plan...
