Chapter 10 - Sunday 9am

Raj awoke suddenly, he felt the sensation of being jabbed on his arm. He tried to smack whatever it was away, but the punches were getting harder. He opened his eyes and there was Varun lunging away at him in his sleep. Raj sat up and leaned over Varun, he began shaking him… hard. “Wake up dude!”

Varun opened his eyes “What?!” he asked curtly.

“You’re beating the crap out of me, this is why we never share a bed. You and your stupid boxing dream. I feel for your wife!” 

“Don’t worry about my wife, I’m not the one on the chopping block!” Varun sat up, pulling the blanket up. “So when are we going to meet Miss India for the first time?”

“I’ve met her” Raj said smugly.

“Whaaat!” Varun said offended. “Without me? What was the point of me coming, you can clearly handle this alone!"

“She’s hot.” Raj said with a huge grin.

“Amazing, that's great news. You get her number?”

“Technically no, but…”

“Dude, you didn’t get her number!” Varun asked shocked “You’re a good looking guy, you have a good personality, have a good job, are respectful and kind, was she blind?” Varun was seriously offended for his best friend.

“Ohhhh, I didn’t know you felt like that about me…” Raj Chuckled. “Got a date!”

“Take back everything I just said. How did a frog like you get a date with the Miss India?”

“Its Dr India, I mean Dr Aarti, well she’s becoming a doctor. Okay let me start from the beginning, she’s 22, studying to become a doctor, speaks perfect English albeit in an American accent, but its cute on her. She’s little, 5’4” I'd guess, long black hair, lovely eyes…” Raj gushed.

“That's great but what’s she like?”  

“V, I never thought you would ask about a hot girls personality!” Raj was shocked who had kidnapped his best friend and replaced him with this clone.

“Dude, you’re marrying her, there has to be a meeting of the minds. Don’t tell anyone I said this, if you do, I’ll deny it…hard. Looks fade man, when you’re old and grey you need to be with someone you can laugh with, and talk to… did you enjoy talking to her or was it more about looking at her?”

“Relax, her personality was on par with her looks… She is genuinely a cool girl. I’m looking forward to meeting up with her today.”

“How did you get her to agree to meet?” Varun asked curiously, he folded his arms and leaned back against the headboard.

“I didn’t, her friend Jasmin organised the whole thing. She told me a time and place and said Aarti would be there. I’m going to have to buy that girl a gift!” Raj recounted enthusiastically.

“Who is this Jasmin?”

“She’s Aarti’s best friend and neighbour, clever girl had organised for her friend to come get her after ten minutes, because she thought I’d be a bald, fat guy! Jasmin was good looking dude… she was totally your type!”

“Don’t worry about me, I’m not here to find a girl!” Varun said flippantly as he got up from the bed “I’m hungry, you go shower next door, while I use this bathroom.”

“What, you go next door, your stuff's already there!” Raj said incredulously.

“You’re right I’ll go next door, your bathroom's a mess!” Varun agreed smugly.

“Varun, It was clean when I used it last, what did you do to it?!” Raj asked.

Varun walked out chuckling to himself.
