Life in a Metro Page #4

We mortgaged our lives.

We bought the house, but

couldn't make it a home.

Do you love him?

Yes.

Does he love you?

Yes, I think.

I'm sorry.

Can we meet next Saturday?

Shruti!

- Hi - Hi. How are you?

Fine.

You are looking beautiful

- What?

You are looking very beautiful.

How's that?

You said you don't smoke or drink.

Sorry, I lied.

You lied?

- I did.

If my future wife

tells me I'll stop.

Yes?

- Everything.

Right.

You haven't told me

- What?

You haven't told me. Tell me or...

...should I move on?

I'm still waiting for you.

Actually, I'm with someone.

What?

- I'm with someone else. Bye.

What happened?

- Close the door.

Ranjit, what happened?

She has a temperature. I'm

taking her to the hospital.

Where were you?

With Shruti.

Why was your mobile switched off?

I was at the movies.

So I switched it off.

I see.

There are lots of DVDs in

the flat. Go. Enjoy yourself.

I'll manage, I'll manage.

- Ranjit.

Mama...

Yes, sis.

If Ranjit calls, say that I

was with you. - What? When?

Yesterday evening, we had

gone to watch a movie, okay.

But, since when have you started

lying. - Okay, I'll call you later.

Just a minute, sis.

I wanted to ask you something.

Tell me.

- Forget it. I will ask you later.

No, say it. Say it

Sis actually... do

you think is it okay...

...to lose your

virginity before marriage?

Shruti do you know

what you are doing?

I think so.

Who is he? - There... there

is someone in the office.

Anyway, okay let it be.

- No, no, what is his name?

Sis, I will give you the

details when I will meet him.

I will tell you later, when I

meet you. - Shruti just be careful.

I am hanging up, bye,

bye I am in a hurry.

Bye-bye.

Yes.

Is Vishey sir in?

No.

When will he be back?

- He hasn't specified.

Stop it!

Hi Shruti.

Er... hi Shruti...

7.30.

- May I come in, sir?

When is the last flight?

10.30. All right. Book it. Yes...

do that... book it for Thursday

Sir, I found this mobile in my

flat. It might be your girlfriend's.

Thank you.

The screen has cracked.

Should I get it replaced?

Not necessary. You gave me keys,

that's more than enough.

Anything else?

Yes, if you could please

take a look at this sir.

What is this?

Sir, it's a business plan. Everything

is ready... the revenue model etc.

You keep meeting investors...

so... if you could take this ahead

What is this? Eighty million?

Sir, I have saved up

seventeen million already.

If you could just... You know.

You have just been promoted.

So, why do you want to look

at other business options?

Sir, you don't get

rich with a regular job...

...so I wanted to do something.

Have you done business before?

No sir... but I know how to sell.

Okay. I am going to Bangalore.

Let me see what I can do.

Thanks sir. Thank you so much

Rahul. You don't think

you are running too fast?

Sir, this is a race and

not a morning walk, so...

I quite like your spirit.

Keep it up.

Thank you, sir.

Hi! Hi! Rahul! I'm so sorry

I am really sorry, pal. Actually,

I wanted to come.

But I got stuck somewhere.

I didn't have your number

- Please take down my number

Write it down. Right now.

I've been looking for my

cellphone for two days

Do you have a pen? Hari, a pen

please. I will write it down.

Madam, the boss gave

me this phone for you

What a coincidence!

I just got my cell.

Rahul, give me your number.

Give me your number.

1807. OK.

Shruti, please don't leave,

don't go I'm sorry

If you wanted to hide the

truth from your parents...

...you should've told me,

I would've put on an act

Why did you make me

believe you loved me?

It isn't that simple

It is that simple. You're gay

It's your life. Straight or gay

It's your wish, your right

But destroying someone

else's life not your right

And it's not right!

All the clothes have not

come from the laundry...

...I am packing the grey ones.

- Yes, okay.

What time is the flight?

- 10:
30.

When will you return?

- I will return in a week.

Listen, keep the mobile to charge.

You have a message.

What's the flight time?

- 10.30

Where are you going?

How many times must you ask?

I'm going to Bangalore

Where are the cigarettes?

Can I come with you?

I can't take you everywhere with me

You can only take me to places...

...where no one will see us

You leave first. And I

leave two hours after you

Like some thief

What's all this, Neha?

You were so full of fun

I need someone who really loves me

What's stopping you? Find someone

You made it clear to me

This relationship

will be an open one

We don't want children, do we?

Why don't you find yourself

a boyfriend who'll love you,

just let me know when you do.

Is this what you say

after using me for a year?

Did I use you? Don't

start me off. Please.

Who do you think you are?

An innocent sixteen year old...

...who knows nothing. So

I'm the one misleading you.

Madam, even top execs...

...don't have the perks you enjoy

When you travel, you

travel business class

You keep getting out

of turn promotions.

I have given you

everything you wanted

So think twice before

saying I've been using you

It's surprising you

haven't as yet asked for money

You could do that too

Here. The price for using you

Water?

Should I make you some coffee?

No. I just had...

- Got a cap?

- What?

A cap? A condom?

Yes. Lots.

What's wrong?

- Doctor, please come quickly

She's swallowed phenyl. Come with me

Doctor, this way

You'll have to pay extra for two

This is too much.

I can explain. Come this

way I'll deal with you later.

this way

Hurry up, Doctor, hurry up

Doctor, here she is

- Oh God

This was bound to happen one day

One lying flat here and

the other waiting outside

One girl arrives

and the other leaves

Are you aiming for a world record?

Add some salt in hot

water and bring it to me

We must make her throw up. Hurry!

What's wrong? - Listen to

me - How much do I owe you?

As we agreed. Thank you very much

That's too little

- Here. Some more - thank you

Who's in the bathroom?

- No one is in the bathroom

Listen.

How did this happen?

We had a tiff, I went out.

When I returned...

You had a tiff? You went

out and brought another one.

Very fast

What will you tell the

police when they will ask?

Sir you say that, she

is your patient and...

...you gave her phenyl

instead of the medicine.

What? No, I will say that she is my

patient she did not pay me my fees...

...so I gave her phenyl to drink.

I didn't mean that.

- Let it be.

I'll handle the police, just pray to

God that the phenyl is adulterated.

Anil, have some sweets

What's the occasion?

A big occasion. It comes

round once in 35 years

I've arranged your leave.

On the 25th and 26th

I've asked the 'Ministry'

You must come. No excuses will do

Hello.

Hi.

- Have you come to meet me?

No

- Then what are you doing here?

What do you want?

- I have an interview. I'm waiting

All right. Okay

Do you work here?

This is my office. My
