CHAPTER.1:THE ROADTRIP.

Start from the beginning
                                    

"So...we are doing it then?1 month from now?" questioned Janak

"Absolutely Yes...We Are doing it. Sure we planned it 10years ago, it was cancelled then, But it can't be cancelled now. I mean it!" Rami warned Ayaan pointing her finger at him

"Hey come on, I was the one who suggested it now" he replied with his both hands in air

"Good" Rami gave her satisfaction and continued "Okay. Everyone?" pointing at them all

After everyone Promises Yes, she yelled in excitement "ROADTRIP. Yes. Fuckin' Finally!"

ONE MONTH LATER.

"You always do this. From the school days, all the plans are either Cancelled OR Delayed.'Mr. I DON'T KNOW' the name suits you Ayaan. it suits you..." Rami yelled from the back seat at Ayaan, driving the Car

"Who does this? Kept us waiting for 4 hours. 4hours? We were supposed to start at 9 in the morning, but thanks to you we started at 1. Well done Ayaan. well done" She continued yelling

"Thankyou" Ayaan mumbles.

But not slow enough, as hearing it made Rami even more Furious and she burst out at him like a hand thrown grenade, yelling at him even more and more. While she kept on bursting at Ayaan, sitting beside him, Rahas slowly increased the sound of the Music player, playing the song 'Another one bites to Dust' by QUEEN as the Car kept on driving on the long road.

Thus starting their 'Long-planned-delayed-its-finally-happening-Road trip'.

"Do you even know where we are? We have been driving for more than 5 hours now. Are you sure we are on the correct route?" Ilis questioned Janak, who was driving the Car

"I don't know man. I mean I have been trying to find the Road we were meant to take a right at for like an hour. So, I think you should ask Ayaan. Wake him up" Janak replies

Ilis wakes Ayaan up, who was sleeping in the backseat near the window. Sitting up suddenly in a sleepy voice "Are we here?".

"No Mr. I DON'T KNOW, we are not there yet" replied a frustrated Rami

Listening to that, Ayaan turned at her "Seriously? You are Still mad at me?..."

"Ayaan, look at here dude, are we on the right route?" Ilis tried showing the map to Ayaan

"...Come on dude, I already told you the reason for being late, anyhow I came right? I'm here. So stop it already" Ayaan continued talking to Rami

"Oh you are here, but you are late. You always do this. You do these things and you don't even accept your fault, its always been like this since the school days"

"What do you want me to do? You want me to say sorry, is that it?"

"Yes, Ayaan I want you to say sorry, Can you do it? say you are sorry, Come on SAY IT!"

"Oh I can say it, But I Won't. Because it's Not. My. Fault."

As Rahas and Ilis both join in the murmuring, Janak yells "Guys... I think we have a little problem here".

They all kept on buzzing like bees as Janak continued "I think we are lost!" Suddenly a loud Bang, followed by a Hiss of the wheel Bursting out. Then as the wheel screeched and Janak hits the brakes stopping the car at once, all the noises in the car were now as Calm as a Corpse.

"Yep! we are lost" Ayaan  groans standing in front of the car.

They are all standing on the road for a few minutes now, with the Map spread on the Hood of the Car.
