For the 2 intros I gave you, this story got 41 likes and the other one got 32 likes. Only a matter of 9 likes!! Which indicates me that a lot of you wants to read both. I told you I can only keep up one ff but I feel so bad when I read the comments for the other one too. So I have decided to write both. Now happy? ???.
WARNING!!! Don’t expect long updates!
Reason 1 : it’s the beginning of the story. Can’t write long till we develop it a little.
Reason 2 : I gave long updates on my previous story coz I wanted to finish it.
Alright now let’s start with the new story ???.
***********************************************
……….6 months before everyone’s lives change……….
A group of friends are sitting around a round table. They’re playing truth or dare. Last turn was Veer’s. So now he’s spinning the bottle. It stopped right in front of Sanchi.
“Oh no!!” She whined ???.
“Oh yes baby!!” Veer yelled triumphantly ???. “Miss Golgappa… truth or dare? I know you’re a coward so you will just pick truth. Not dare. Anyway so….”
“I’m not a coward!!” ??? came Sanchi’s angry voice.
“Really? Then pick dare!” Veer said sarcastically ??? knowing well it would provoke her.
“Ok fine!! Dare!” As soon as she said it, she regretted for saying it seeing Veer’s grin. “This is cheating! You provoked me to say that!!”
“No can do now my golgappa. You already said dare. So now it’s a dare! Final!” ???
“Haa Sanchi, don’t be a spoilsport ok? Just take the dare.” Pragya, Isha and Garv insisted.
“FINE!! What’s the dare?” She asked glaring ??? at Veer.
“Aww… miss golgappa… you’re glaring at me na ??? I’m getting scared! Please say nicely… say… ‘What’s the dare, bee?’ With love…”
“Veer!! (She was trying her best not to hit his head with the bottle they’re spinning) ok… what’s the dare, bee?“ She asked in a sickly sweet voice that made him shiver a little.
“Uh.. ok.. the dare is.. you have to prank call someone.”
“NO!! Absolutely not!! I still remember how you made me prank call your dad. He panicked so much when I told him that you met with an accident. I really felt bad for him. He loves you so much and I did a terrible thing! I’m really lucky he didn’t try to find out who called him. And you’re lucky I agreed last time coz I’ve never met your father. There’s no way I’m gonna do that again!!” Sanchi declined.
“But this time it’s not dad!!”
“No Veer… give me another dare but I can’t do this!”
“But it’s gonna be a random number!!”
“What do you mean it’s gonna be a random number?” – Isha
“That means we’re not calling someone we know. We’ll just dial some random number and call a complete stranger!!”
“Now that’s a good idea!” – Garv
“No it’s not a good idea!” – Sanchi
“C’mon Sanchi… it’ll be fun. Just think of it as the last time and do it na…” – Pragya
“Don’t encourage him Pragya!”
“Haa!!! Yeh betaal no.1 is right.” Pragya was frowning because of the name she got. Veer just grinned. “I promise you that this is the last time I’m gonna dare you to prank call someone. Please….!!” He made a puppy dog face that looks irresistible.
“Ok fine!! But this is the last time!!” Veer rejoiced with her words but what she said next, made his face twist in annoyance. “And stop making those weird faces which you think cute. Coz you don’t come anywhere close to cute, you look like a constipated chicken” all are laughing except Veer.
“So whose this time?” She asked taking her phone.
“I told you na, I don’t know. How about we all make up a number?” Veer suggested shrugging his shoulders.
“I’ll start! 2” Pragya yelled.
Isha had her hands over her ears. “What’s the need to yell Pragya? Ok 7”
“Mmm 6”
“4”
“3”
“9”
“1”
“5”
“0”
“8”
“So the number is…… 2764391508?” – Sanchi
“Yep!!” All agreed.
“So what should I tell him or her?” She asked again.
Her beloved friends gave her an evil look ???. “You know what to say ???”
**Oh god! One day I’ll be in big trouble because of my so called friends!!** thinking to herself, Sanchi dialed it. She was waiting for someone to pick from other side. The phone was on speaker.
Others were whispering.
“Yaar don’t know whether that number even exist!” – Garv
“Let’s hope so!” – Isha
“Sshhh” – Veer and Pragya
Sanchi on the other hand was hoping against all hopes that no one would answer but she doesn’t seem to have that much luck on her side. Someone did answer the call.
Stranger : hello, this is Kabir’s fiance speaking. He-“
Sanchi : wait hang on, he’s ENGAGED??”
She put on a fake voice of shock and absolute mortification.
Stranger : yes, it’s been couple of months-“
Sanchi : then what about the promises he made to me?
She pretended to be crying towards the end of her sentence, gasping for air incessantly.
Her friends were trying hard not to laugh.
Stranger : may I know what was your relationship with my fiance?
The woman on the other end of the line inquired pointedly.
Sanchi : I-I am… *sob*
She paused to think what to say. Though she didn’t agreed at first to give this prank call, now she was enjoying it. Knowing she had already done something bizarre, she thought why not exaggerate it. Grinning to her friends, she continued.
I am his wife! And… *sob* *sob* I love him so… much! How could he do this to me? How could he cheat on me like this? Even after he knew……
She was sniffing to add the dramatic effect. By now her friends are rolling on the floor holding their stomachs ???. She wants to laugh so badly but she controlled herself hardly.
Stranger : even after he knew what?
The lady on the other side sounded horrified but did our gang care? No! Not at all!
Veer mouthed ‘drop the bomb’. Pragya gave her a thumbs up. Isha and Garv too were making, ‘go ahead’ signals.
Sanchi was going to say ‘even after he knew I truly love him’, but she decided to be overly dramatic with other’s reactions. So she thought to say something different.
Sanchi : even after he knew that I’m carrying his child!! Not just a child. I’m having twins!! Even both of us planned names too. Deepika, Priyanka, Ranveer and Arjun. Two names for girls and two for boys.
She ranted some names of Bollywood stars.
Stranger : I can’t believe he did this to me!!
The woman screeched on the other side.
Sanchi : I feel sorry for you but more than that, I feel sorry for myself! What would I do with two kids now? How would I feed them? How could god create such a disloyal human being?
Sanchi continued her act to cry. But it was getting to much and she can’t handle her laughter. She was going to disconnect the line. Then she heard,
Stranger : I’m going to breakup with him!!
With that, Sanchi hung up and rolled out of her seat.
“??? I can’t- ??? I can’t believe she- ??? she believed you!! ???” Veer started to gasp because of too much laughing.
Pragya joined too. “??? kasam se yaar ??? that girl is an idiot!! ???”
“Haa yaar ??? she could’ve guessed when you said those names as children’s names. ??? but still- ??? still she thought it was true? ???” Isha reasoned.
“Awesome job Sanchi..!! You acted so real. And that stupid girl- ???” Garv couldn’t even talk anymore.
Sanchi was laughing ??? hard too. “Let’s just hope, whoever this Kabir guy is, he is mature enough to explain to his stupid fiance. Otherwise he won’t be marrying soon”
“And hope he doesn’t trace your number and make you pay for this” Garv added making Sanchi’s face paled.
Veer kept his arm on his shoulder. “Garv mere dosth, chill yaar! Nothing’s gonna happen. Whoever that guy is, he’ll either just curse us for getting him in trouble or he’d finally understand how stupid his fiance and call of the marriage himself!”
Isha too nodded her head in agreement. “I personally think those two doesn’t match. But who cares yaar! It’s their problem!!”
All of them had gone home with the hilarious memory of the prank call. Little did they know this silly little prank call would be the reason of many changes in their lives in the near future.
