Old banter

Ram was surround by a lot of students when he comes out from the office who were excited to ask questions about his career and theirs. He was excited seeing them but Ram being Ram has to do something out of the blue. Yeah you already know it anyways ... playing Rock, Paper, Scissors with the students one by one and if they win they can ask him three questions not more not less and if they lose than wait for your next turn! Yeah that's what he does even when he was in college ans people have no idea why. But Ram has its own logic - why make it serious when it can be fun! A bizarre ideology for a lot of people I know.

Priya walk towards them, standing a few metered she clears her throat "aaahmm", seeing her the students when silent and Ram just turn to see her and again ask the student he was playing with to continue "common camp it's the last round you either win or lose". The student "okay sir"

Haahaha better luck next time champ ! Ram says getting up from the ground dusting his pants, picking up his blazer.

See you guys next time, it was lovely meeting you all ! Ram says with a warmth smile
Same here sir , the students roar, bye sir !!

Ram and Priya walk towards the car parking
Priya : so where will we be going ?
Ram : hmmmm (he acts to think) first let's get inside your car and roam around the beach what say !
Priya : sure hop in ... ( she was about to open the door) what about your car ?
Ram : my driver is there he'll come later
Priya : Amir aatmi
Ram : ayee!
Priya : sit
Ram : ji Ma'am

Screen change to office

Vikram finished the last meeting. He was in 4 important meetings today and without Ram.
Sitting in his office, massaging his forehead he realise Ram hasn't reply to his message he send hours ago.
Taking out his phone he checks that he has read the message and leave on seen than  Vikram type - better give me a heads up if you are going to ditched work ! This is not done.
What a jerk ! Vikrama exclaims and throws his phone on the couch. Ram just leave him on seen again !

Walking a bit back and forth for a few minutes he called Priya.

Inside the car,
They were  chatting when the phone rings
Priya pick up the phone : Hello vik what's up
Vikram : Priya is Ram there
Priya : yeah he's here
Vikram : turn on loud speaker
Priya : it's on vik
Vikram : arre salle tune mujhe yaha kam me fashake khut enjoy kar raha hai. Kal office me tikhe dekhti hoon

And he cuts the call while vik was complaining
Priya : dramebazz
Ram : sometimes he behaves like my mom
Priya : accha hai na you got two moms
Ram : aur chahiye bhi nahi tum dono hi kafi ho meri khut ki ma bhi aese nahi daatte jese tum dono karte ho

Ram : haan2 agar mein Delhi nahi gaya hota na toh tum wahi karogi aur kuch dinno ki toh baat hai vik aur tum milke mujhe satayengi
And he looks out of the window trying to act annoyed
Priya just drives in silent

After 20 mins they reach the beach and it was the best timing the sun is not that hot and they can walk calmly without heatwaves.
Getting down from the car they walk side by side enjoying the breeze and walking silently besides the shore. They even had kulfis from the street vendor.
Priya and Ram was sitting on the shore a bit away from the crowd. Ram stands up and says one minute to Priya and ran away , she look behind to see him walking towards the pav bhaji vendor.
5 minutes later,
He came back with two pav bhaji running towards her.
Priya : dheere se ajate
Ram : arre it's alright
Priya : thank you
Ram : have it, I think it's tasty than the others
Priya taking a bite : hmmmmh it's tasty
Ram : told you
Taking another bite priya ask : Ram why are you still playing RPS(Rock,Paper,Scissors) with kids
Ram : arre it's my fav game and they were loving it
Priya : because the business tycoon was behaving like a kid ! ( she snaps)
Ram looks at her annoyed : tch ! I am a human too
Priya : so
Ram : young at heart
Priya : oh god !
Ram : thank god
Priya : shut up
He just laugh and she joins
Priya continues : so when did you come back ...
and continues there talk sitting on the shore with the warm food in their hands
The scenes fades....
They were sitting at the shore for another half an hour before they path their ways .
