"Dhriti you didn't pack your bag yet!" Dhaani shouted trying to close her overloaded luggage.

"I don't want to go" Dhriti spoke out.

"What! It's your cousin's wedding and you can't deny. Dhriti,I am not listening  to your excuses.That's final,pack up right now. We have catch up the train on time" Dhaani ordered.

"When I told you that I want to travel to Rajasthan for my field trip,you denied now you are dragging me to Agra" Dhriti spoke out scornfully.

"Dhriti don't argue! Rajasthan is far away from Lucknow that's why I denied and what's the fuss,our city Lucknow too has many monuments for you to explore for your useless scrap work" Dhaani spoke as calmly as possible.

"I am not going! My archeology is not crap. All my colleagues explored forts of Rajasthan,this experience will help them. Last year you didn't let me go to Delhi as well , I am not going to that boring wedding now" Dhriti exclaimed.

"You won't stay here alone that's final, I will stay with you.Dhaani you may go" Kaashi spoke out.

"You are spoiling this brat,this is my neice wedding that's why you are not accompanying me Kaashi" Dhaani accused.

"Don't make mole of a mountain,I can't leave Dhriti alone" Kaashi stated.

"Then ask your beloved daughter to accompany.If keeps she keeps sitting in every wedding at home then her chances of getting a good marriage proposal are nil" Dhaani retorted.

"Okay,she will accompany" Kaashi agreed to stop the argument.

"Papa,please I don't want to go.Why are you taking her side" Dhriti groaned.

"I am on your side only, listen Agra too has so many monuments and you can visit  them.I will handle your mother" Kaashi explained Dhriti.

"Dhaani walk faster" Kaashi spoke out as the platform changed on last minute.

"I am walking as fast as possible!" Dhaani spoke out angrily.

"Papa, that's my seat.Someone is sitting on it" Dhriti whispered checking out
her ticket.

"This is my daughter's seat gentleman"Kaashi spoke gently.

"Uncle ji, my sit is on uppermost berth and my leg is fractured, I can't climb up" Boy spoke out showing his plaster hidden in blanket.

"Oh okay" Kaashi nodded his head in understanding.

"Dhriti you sit on my seat and I am going to that boy's sit" Kaashi spoke out.

"No Papa sit here only. I will climb up.You will get back pain if you climbed up and the space above is less that would be uncomfortable" Dhirti spoke out.

"So,now like a monkey you will climb up! Boys are also sitting below, Don't be silly.Sit with me quietly" Dhaani glared and scolded Dhriti.

"Mummy, I am not climbing a mountain and the boys won't eat me up. I am going otherwise I will get bored for 4 hours" Dhriti spoke out sharply and started climbing small leader to topmost berth.

"This girl is crazy!" Dhaani muttered.

Dhriti lied down although her long legs hang odd out of the berth.

"Hey keep your legs inside, how can we walk in the middle" A passerby senior citizen grunted.

"Stick to the roof and walk ,I won't squeeze up myself,I want to sleep peacefully,it's 3 in the morning" Dhriti replied savagely.

"Youngsters have lost all manners these days" the old man scoffed.

"Uncle,I respect your age but that doesn't mean you will take advantage of your seniority. At midnight you are roaming around.You could have walked silently but choose to disturb my sleep, I am around 5'9" It's difficult to lay like that and you are making judgments, use your wisdom wisely" Dhaani spoke in a louder stern tone.

"Dhriti what's the matter!" Kaashi woke up.

"No Papa nothing. Uncle forget his way out.I told him what's the right way of moving through,you sleep no problem here" Dhriti spoke looking the old man in the eye.

As old man left flustered,Dhriti struggled to sleep again. She looked through the net of the berth,the only source of air on her seat.

"Uppermost berths are hell for adults seriously" Dhriti spoke to herself.

She had no network in her mobile therefore she thought to look at the adjacent berth through the net.

Someone was sleeping covering his body with a blanket.She yawned out and then noticed the person moved oddly in the blanket.

Dhriti kept looking  curiously. A soft moan escaped the man's lips Dhriti's face turned pale,she knew what the man was doing inside the blanket.

She pretended to be asleep, her eyes totally shut as she tried to sleep.

"Bloody horny man is masturbating right here!" Her conscience shrieked and she felt disgusted.

"Dhriti get up,Station arrived" Dhaani's voice woke up Dhriti.

The adjacent berth was vacant and Dhriti sighed in relief as she did'nt have to see that man's face in daylight.

The morning breeze of 6 in the morning was a delight to Dhriti's heart.

"Dhriti go sleep on the roof as all the rooms is occupied. We both will sleep in the verandah" Dhaani whispered as they reached her sister's house.

"Seriously,Maasi could not book up hotel.Such a miser she is. All relatives are sleeping like we are waiting for a train on platform" Dhriti rolled her eyes.

Dhriti removed her sandals and walked upto the stairs barefoot. She stepped on a marigold flower.

"Agrh....mashed up marigold smell awful" Dhriti groaned and removed sneezed flower from her foot.

Dhriti climbed up and her eyes fell on the rising sun,a crescent appeared on her lips instantly.

A muffled moan escaped from  someone's lip and Dhriti's eyes became size of saucer.

"What the Fuck!" Dhriti exclaimed closing her eyes.

"Shit! Dhriti don't speak loudly" Dhriti's elder cousin Aarohi got up adjusting her blouse back on her blossoms.

"Listen,Dhriti.We weren't doing anything. Just your jiju and I needed some off time.Don't make noise and wake up anyone sweetie.Look these things are normal in marriage don't overreact.You will understand once you will get married" Aarohi explained red faced.

"What great start to the day,seeing horny stuff all around.God just let me survive this wedding" Dhriti prayed internally.

"Hey I am not a virgin anymore" Satish spoke out happily as if he won a long fought war.

"So,what?" Krish spoke uninterested.

"You are stupid, just explore this heaven" Satish spoke out.

"You fucked your girlfriend who is engaged to someone already. What kind of pleasure it is!" Krish spoke out with furrowed eyebrows.

"It's so normal.She wanted to explore herself and didn't wanted to give her virginity to a total stranger on wedding night, I helped her" Satish explained.

"Oh...you helped her in cheating her fiance that's a bloody noble cause" Krish snapped back.

"We couldn't end up together,that man is snatching her up from me,atleast we bid the best goodbye.I satisfied her needs and she satisfied me,bro lovestories these days are like this only.You are too old fashioned" Satish spoke out bluntly.

"There is a difference between love and lust" Krish replied.

"Yeah that's why you are looking for a virgin bride" Satish spoke sarcastically making Krish feel bitter.

"Yeah keep fucking horny woman and I don't care" Krish spoke out to reflect the hurt he got from Satish.

"Well,atleast I know how to Fuck someone unlike you virgin. I doubt your sexuality now" Satish mocked Krish.

A punch landed on
Satish's face,blackening his left eyelid,"Yeah punching feels better than fucking!" Krish hit his only best friend Satish in heat of anger.
