“How many times in a month you have wet dream?”Hari, one of my roommates asked seriously one fine Sunday morning. We six friends were just rose from beds. I gave hari a dirty look. He turned away and yawned loudly opening his half-opened eyes. “I hate such kind of dreams, yuck!!” Dev replied him folding his blanket. While I was struggling to squeeze out toothpaste from empty sachet, hari winked at me and asked – “bharu, who is your ‘dream’ girl?” Dev replied quickly– “your grandma, hari”. I confused how to react. Praveen and manju giggled. I heard dastu snoring inside blanket.
When I was in hostel, during my diploma, every Sundays were piece of cake for us. We used to go for second show movie on Saturdays and take sound sleep till next morning up to 9am. In fact, 9am was not our target but we had to wake up early to get breakfast. So hari woke up first and started asking weird questions. He has an awful brain that always develops weird questions. I picked up my cloths and went for bath. While I was bathing, I found my clothes were disappeared. I shocked. I was hanged cloths over door, and somebody has taken those. I knew it is thuku’s job. Thuku was roommate of shrikanth, and he love to give troubles to others.Idecided to teach him a lesson. I finished my bath fast and I saw one hand placing my cloths over the door. Damn! He returned my towel only! At least he could give my underwear back. My blood pressure was reached peak. I did not wait. I wrapped only towel around my waist and rushed in thuku’s room. Thuku and shrikanth were sitting in chairs. Thuku smiled as if he’s so innocent and asked – “what happened?. I shouted angrily –“you don’t want to see me in clothes, right??” Suddenly I shed my towel off!! I told him - “see me now till you satisfy!!” I can’t explain their reactions here. They laughed out loud and begged me to wear anything! Thuku returned my cloths as quick as possible. I smiled back and came to my room. Few minutes later we moved in mess hall. I scanned other’s plate to know what is for breakfast today. My eyes widened as I seen my semi-favorite food was serving. It was ‘vangi bhath’ (brinjal masala rice :p).I loaded up my plate with hungry two and half spoons of vangi bhath. Then we seated around a dining table and began to eat.
Praveen told twisting his brows-“days going so boring, nothing interesting is happening in life”. Yes, I think in the same way sometimes. But what we can do? Dev said- “yeah, everything is boring”. Hari added – “I couldn’t even find a girlfriend in these two years”.We discussed about it till noon and we’d made a terrific plan finally. We decided to rag juniors in the night.Ragging never happened in our hostel. When we were entered the hostel first time, we guessed seniors would rag us. But no such things happened. Anyhow, we were going to make something new that never happened before in our hostel. We approached shrikanth and thuku. They both didn’t even think twice. They agreed with great support. Among the both, shrikanth has great body enough to scare juniors. I doubted how thuku would charge juniors. He is not so tall, besides I never saw him serious before. And I guessed praveen can care those freshmen as he is so height. Hari was experienced in fights and had lot of dare to do the job. I wished I can control my laughter.
After dinner, we friends gathered in our room. Shrikanth wore bunion, short and clutched a water bottle. We all went to hunt fresher and picked one room. Shrikanth knocked the door hard.a thin boy opened the door. We six guys entered the room seriously. Five juniors in the room were sitting in chairs and studying. They looked each other in worry. I closed the door and tightened the bolt…
