Its Tea Time

Aah so relaxing it is today. Looks like a day I'd been waiting for and it has come. Due to some "technical snag" my work cannot proceed and so I am on an "Official Time Pass" routine. So, here we go, chatting with old pals, browsing and reading e-mails and of course listening to songs and I am lost as if I am very busy. Suddenly a small jerk on the shoulder revives me from the musical reverie, I look up to see who is it. Oh man its our favorite teammate, Gurubhai, as we fondly call him. But Ratnakar is far more better than the Gurukant Desai we had seen in this year's blockbuster "GURU".

Ratnakar : "Busy ho kya , chalo chai peene jaayenge"
Virag : "One hell of a busy I am, chalo let's go".
Ratnakar : "Paaji ko bhi leke chalte hain, arre paaji hain kahaan"

Aah how could I possibly not mention paaji aka Bharat, the cornerstone and the standing pillar of our arguments and "healthy discussions". Although it is quite rare that he is in the office and "not to be found at his seat", but sometimes rare things do happen or else the news channels will have to go on a hunger strike. Today was such a day, our fondly reverred paaji was not on his seat, so we went out looking for the aceman of the time pass mandli, but alas its just 11 am, how can one possibly assume that Ravi will be in so early. Oh my Gosh, his laptop is also not there, probably he won't come today.
Gurubhai : "Arre paaji bhi nahi hain, ravi bhi nahi hain"
Virag : "Arre woh aa rahe paaji" (Giving him the indication that we are going for tea on Gurubhai's insistence and he nods in the affirmative on joining)

So the wholesome threesome reach the "Cuisine de' Internationale" in the ground floor with an air as if they have just finished implementing successfully the counter OS to beat Windows Vista running on an AMD Dual Core and are about to step inside "The Taj" to celebrate the accomplishment, for now its the same old cafeteria which has the ability to serve tea with a taste complying with the day of the week.
Gurubhai : "Hey I'll be back in two minutes" (Heading towards the exit of the cafeteria).
Virag : "Hey what do you want me to order for you?"
Gurubhai : "Nothing!!!"
Nothing, I think it was Gurubhai's idea to come to cafeteria!!!
Virag : "Paaji, tussi ki louge?"
Paaji smiles in his own enigmatic style and as if saying "I think you wanted to have something".
Oh my God, what the heck of this is going on. Both of us (me and paaji), burst out laughing.
Virag : "Hum aaye kyun hain yahaan?"
Paaji : "Gurubhai leke aaye hain lekin Gurubhai gaye kahaan?"
"Waise accha hain, main abhi apne issue ki list khatam karke aa raha hoon"
"Lekin kahin gurubhai apne maze lene ke liye seat par to nahi chale gaye"
Virag : "Chal yaar baahar jaakar dekhte hain"
Out we go, looking for Ratnakar, but he is nowhere to be found. Just when our worst fears of a trick being played upon us was going to be a hard reality, the smiling silhouette of Gurubhai materializes from behind the ATM gate visible at a stone's throw from where we were standing. And out comes one basic question from Gurubhai. (His basic questions really drives the nuts out of us. I think if Einstein had been alive he would have chosen to solve the "Strings' Theory" to its fullest rather than attempting to answer the basic questions of Gurubhai. But as of now we were at loggerheads trying to solve the basic question and that being,
Ratnakar : "Arre tum log kuch order nahi kiya"

Me and paaji were laughing as if we had just come out watching the laughter-riot "Dhol".
