Chapter 4: Truth or Dare

The group gets high and slowly but definitely start rolling into the madness and chaos

"Bloody Shekhar, it took this jerk fifteen minutes to guide us in" said Pintu, as they finally seated themselves in their respective seats at their desk. They were sitting just around each other in adjacent and opposite cubicles.

"If it wasn't me, you guys wouldn't even have an idea, which floor we work in" Shekhar snapped back.

"I guess we all are high. Is that how this thing works out?" Rahul added his thoughts. He was still sweating and breathing heavily. He had this distinct feeling that his breath was choking up gradually. He decided not to concentrate on his breath for a while.

"Oh yes f****r! Wasn't it your idea to smoke the second joint?"

"That was a terrible idea, dude" Pintu added. "I told you this was no ordinary cannabis strain, it was a god damn Mayawati, man.'

"Sheelvati" Shekhar responded in his dreamy voice. 

"A rose by any other name looks as good. Ever heard this one?"

"A rose by any other name smells as sweet. FYI"

"You are irritating, man. No wonder your wife left you." Pintu grunted, giving a cold stare.

"F****r, I would have killed you if I could see you. My vision is so blurred. All I can see around are clouds."

"And I can smell roses, since you idiots mentioned it" Swami chipped in.

The dim overhead flickered as the voltage fluctuated.Swami was still cleaning the lenses of his glasses, lost it his own train of thoughts, while Rahul was still in search of his lost manhood. Pintu was the only one who was actually trying to log back into his desktop console, despise not being able to remember his password. Shekhar had his legs up his desk, staring at the water sprinkler on the false ceiling above and smiling.

The group had no awareness of the 'Hulk' shrieking and screaming at his machine, while trying to fix it back. He could have easily moved to some other desktop but the would hurt his 'principles of cleanliness'. The two girls in the other end of the floor had now stopped chattering and were dripping into honey dew slumber occasionally. There were no calls coming-in as expected. It was a Christmas night and no American likes to spend time on phone with an Indian, trying to understand the accent as broad as the National Highways.

After some initial moments of silence, Swami sprang back to reality with a suggestion.

"Guys, let's play "Truth or Dare". What say?"

"Let me sleep, I'm so fucked." said Shekhar, still smiling at the sprinkler.

"Come on, we are all high. At least we assume this is what 'high' is. Let's play, it would be fun."

"Says who?"

"Do you realise, you're smiling at the ceiling for past ten minutes, a*****e?" 

Shekhar broke out of his trance and looked back at Swami. "What the heck, man. We are are doing crazy s**t. Look at Rahul, he is still s**t scared about his lost dick. And look at this other f****r, Pintu. He had locked his login account. He doesn't even know that he had been trying his password in the username section."

"Lol, I know. I even saw his password - BigBananasince1991. It couldn't be more embarrassing."

"As embarrassing as you cleaning your lens for past an hour maybe.Are you polishing it in to a diamond or something?"

"Cut the crap, guys" Rahul jumped in. "Let's play the game. We need to concentrate on something or we'll keep loosing it again and again."

"Just like you lost your manhood." Swami giggled.

"I'm listening." replied Pintu still staring at his login screen " And for your kind info, my password was 'BigBadBananasince1991' and now I'm gonna change it into 'BadassBananasince1991'."

"I bet Rahul would like to change his password to 'Lostmybanana@minutesago". Swami was pulling his legs again.

Rahul looked back at him, trying to pretend any angry look, but it was tough to even look angry with his mind swirling in the whirlpool of its own.

A make shift table was created off the desk drawer box and the group pulled their chair around it. The bottle spun and the game started. The first spin and it pointed towards Pintu.

"Truth or dare?"

"Truth". The rest of the three looked at each other for question.

"Elaborate on the pink underwear you are wearing today" said Swami.

"F**k you."

"If you are quitting, we will give you a dare."

"Hold you arse-like mouth, man. What do you want to know?"

"The truth behind your pink underwear."

"It was accidental. I fucked up."

"What do you mean by accidental? You mean you slipped and fell inside a pink underwear?" asked Rahul.

"Well I was running out of time to catch the cab and I couldn't find my underwear. The power went off too."

"And you slipped into a pink underwear?"

"I'll seriously f**k you up, Swami. Let me finish first."

"Continue."

"So my sister got this new set of imported lingerie from her friend who visited India last week. I accidentally wore in dark, instead of mine. Both were kind of mixed up with other washed dresses in the laundry bag."

"Haha, are you telling me that you are wearing a 'panty' tonight?" Shekhar was already laughing his a*s off.

"Can we call it lingerie please?"

"No we can't. You ain't wearing no bra, so it doesn't qualify to be called a lingerie set. We will call it a pink panty." Swami said with a chuckle. Others broke into a small spurt of laughter, while Pintu sat red-faced. The embroidery of the lingerie was giving him an itch all around. He wondered how girls manage to wear such a  crap thing.

"Ok next" he grinded his teeth.

The bottle spun again. Pintu was the man behind the spin and that was a very wrong idea. He spun it so hard that it flew off the table and smashed the photo frame, kept at the Team Lead's desk. A big crack shaped up on its glass cover.It had a picture of his family. The crack now divided the Team lead and rest of the family in the picture.

"What the f**k" said Shekhar, so calmly like it was the pleasantest thing to say.

"God, we are dead." Rahul walked towards the now cracked photo frame, picked up the bottle and looked closely. "His wife looks too old, man. Look at this f*****g crack dividing them now. It's a sign from above, I bet."

"No! It's an absolute act of a*****e-iness from this retard, Pintu", Swami point at the culprit.

"What? I just spun the bottle, man" Pintu tried to put on a defence. "Is 'a*****e-iness', even a word?"

"We need something to define your act of bravado, after all" smiled Shekhar.

"Get the bottle back and no gives this f****r Pintu the bottle to spin. He'll launch it like a missile again."

In a normal circumstances, the group would have been s**t scared about the act. However at the moment, everyone just tried to concentrate on having a conversation which didn't sound gibberish. Lucky, they had no cameras inside the floor to catch up with their crazy antics.

The next spin pointed to Shekhar, who choose 'truth' with no asking. 

"Tell us something about you that no one knows here."

"I wear rabbit-eared flip flops at home."

"Everyone knows it. You posted it proudly in Instagram."

"What? Why the hell will I do that, man?"

"You posted it just five minutes ago, when you look a break from making a telepathic love with the water sprinkler on the ceiling."

"Dear God, I really did that? Can't remember a s**t"

"Okay buddy, now answer the question."

"My wife left me because I once got drunk and pissed in the kitchen sink. She caught me red-handed."

"Buddy, you were drinking with us that night and we all caught you red-handed, along with your wife."

"Whatever but that's how I got divorced."

"Such a lie, didn't you tell us a week later that you made a candle-light love with you wife?" said Swami.

"Oh Gosh, come on!" Shekhar growled.

"Wait, wait, I didn't knew that",interfered Rahul. "You guys made love under candle light or you made love with candles? I'm confused"

"What the f**k! How can you make love with candles?"

"Well you can use it as prop. They do it all the time in porn."

"And, you can use it to add up the kink quotient. BDSM and all if you what I mean", Swami added his expert advice.

Shekhar looked puzzled and angry at them. "I'm not playing this game with you fuckers."

"Wait wait, everyone else shut up. Let him answer." said Pintu

"Okay, she didn't divorce me because pissed into a kitchen sink. She actually caught me watching a gay porn."

"That's stupid. No one does that."

"Except that I was watching it with a gay friend" Shekhar led a slight whistle of disappointment. 

"And he was naked and hard." he added with his head faced down.

Everyone went silent for a minute and Pintu slowly started moving his chair a little away from Shekhar.

"What are you doing f****r? I'm not gay."

"Oh man, prevention is better than cure, that's it.I love me dear cute a*s, man."

"Eghh, I mean that night my friend, who was gay wanted to watch a porn naked. It was his birthday wish. I couldn't say no, but that's all we did."

"Okay, can you help Rahul in searching for his missing c**k?"

"F**k, no way. I'm not gay, a*****e" muttered Shekhar angrily. Obviously no one believed it still.

The next spin landed back at Pintu. This time he was supposed to choose 'dare' as per the rules. No one can choose the same option consecutively. While Pintu bobbed his head around like a hen, others discussed about the task in secret. In few seconds, an ugly smile broke into Shekhar's face as he knew his revenge was coming.

"Okay, here's a very simple dare, man" he smiled at Pintu. "You'll need to put down your pants as low as possible without pulling it all down."

"That's all. You guys want to see my lingerie. I can show it." laughed Pintu, a little relaxed.

"Oh wait buddy, let me complete. You'll walk in front of the two girls in the other end of the floor, drop you pen accidentally. And you'll bend down with your a*s towards them to pick up your pen. Your lower back and you gorgeous pink panty should be absolutely exposed to them. That's your task"

"Do it in style, man. Strut it like a babe." Swami smiled crookedly.

Pintu froze in horror, as other broke into laughing hysteria.
