Ch. 4Bring it on, Mr Rockstar...


Micky’s Farm House: 14th July Thursday: 11 pm

"I have another question. If both the partners resist reacting then who would be considered as the winner?"

Cody became inquisitive.

"Then it will be decided by time. Whoever will be able to resist longer would be the winner."

Micky affirmed.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let the fun begin."

Maya yelled in excitement.

"But who will start first?"

Billy asked.

"Let's decide by chits. Alisha, write the names of the couple and make chits."

Micky said and gave her a notepad. Within a minute, Alisha jotted down the names and put the folded chits into a basket. Everyone was too excited to be the first. After shaking it properly, she took out a chit and unfolded it.

"It's Maya and Billy."

Alisha shouted.

"Who will come first?"

Cody asked.

"Me!"

Maya uprose her hand and then turned to Billy

"Wish me luck."

She said with a pout. Billy chuckled and lightly pecked her lips. Maya got up from the sofa and staggered towards the bar counter. She grabbed a bottle of wine, opened it and poured a good quantity into the glass. Everybody was looking at each other as all knew that Maya is already boozy and more alcohol might turn the condition worse. Billy, who was sitting complacently on the sofa until Maya brought the rim of the glass near to her lips, jumped up and rushed towards her.

"What the hell are you trying to do? You are not even being able to stand properly and now you want to have more? Are you CRAZY?”

He said in pique and snatched the glass from her hand. Maya stared at him for a while and said with a grin,

"I like your concern but you know, my work is done."

She winked and walked past making him flabbergasted.

"Maya......Maya...."

Everyone hooted for her.

"Bro, do something, you can't lose."

Alex whispered to Billy. Suddenly Billy's phone rang and he went outside to attend to the call. After a couple of minutes, he came back with a flustered face.

"What happened Buddy? Is everything alright?"

Peter became concerned.

"I have to go. My house has been burgled and the police have come. Sorry guys, I don't think I will be able to go on the trip."

He came nearer to Maya and said,

"I will call you when everything will be okay."

He pecked her forehead and was about to turn on his heel.

"What do you mean by you can't go on the trip? You Idiot! What will I do without you? Call the police here and get the investigation done."

Maya whined and pulled him back by his shirt.

"Police can't come here Sweetheart."

Billy turned back and said calmly.

"Why?"

Maya said in vexation.

"Because I don't want them to spoil our party and the trip."

Maya gaped at him while Billy winked and said,

"And the best actor award goes to Billy!"

Everybody burst out in laughter.

"Seriously Buddy, you deserve one. Even I was convinced for a moment."

Micky said and patted his back.

"But the question is, who won as both have reacted?"

Peter asked in apprehension.

"Of course, Billy. Maya's reaction was as fast as a supersonic jet."

Alex giggled and Maya glared at him.

"Okay, now it’s the turn for the next couple."

Alisha announced and picked another chit up.

"It is Cody and Natalia."

She yelled.

"I will kick off."

Cody said and came near to Natalia.

"As I know Nuts can't resist my charm, not for a moment."

He looked into her eyes and said in a husky tone. Natalia gave him a cold glance and brushed his efforts aside. Though he didn't expect it, Cody being Cody, he was not ready to lose it so easily either.

"Actually, my charm is like a CANDY CANE. Sweet but twisted and everybody can't handle it."

He smirked and rose his eyebrows to instigate Natalia. However, to everybody's surprise, Natalia didn't react at all where all know that how she starts fights with Cody on trivial issues. After plenty of sarcastic provocation, Cody lost the battle.

"Yeeeeeeeehhh.....Lia won."

Nina screamed in delight and hugged her.

"Not so early, Nina. Her turn is yet to come and you know, I am a hard nut to crack."

Cody said bumptiously.

"We will see."

Natalia said nonchalantly and headed to the freeze to get a Cadbury silk bar. She reluctantly proceeded to Cody and sat beside him. To everyone's surprise, she slowly ripped the wrapper and started seductively nibbling the brown cubes. Everybody gaped at her while Cody was stealing glances from the corner of his eyes.

"Um....m....m. it's lovely."

She moaned and licked the dribble of the chocolate from the corner of her lips. There was pin-drop silence in the room where Natalia's coquettish moan was creating havoc in Cody's mind. However, bad luck for Natalia, he still didn't react. At last, being frustrated she placed the last bite of the chocolate between her lips and got up from the sofa but just for being yanked by Cody. She banged on his chest and in the very next moment, was smooched hard by him. Cody was licking and biting her lips to savour the chocolate. Initially, Natalia was too shocked to react but after a moment, she gave in and reciprocated equally. Everybody whooped to break their trance.

"What was that Bro? You couldn't resist the temptation of chocolate or Lia's seduction?"

Alex snaked his arm around Cody's shoulder and asked teasingly.

"Of course, the temptation of the chocolate Dude. Cody can resist anything but tasty food. And you know Chocolate is my sweet tooth."

Natalia rolled her eyes and smacked his bicep.

"We all know what you can resist and what you can’t. And for your kind information, you lost the game to your very smart girlfriend."

Micky said in pretentious annoyance.

"I am generous."

Cody shrugged and said.

"No, you are an idiot. Anyway, let me tell you all the next name."

Alisha said and put her hand into the basket.

"Okay, so it's us and I will go first."

She said with a coy grin and went to Peter's guitar bag.

"Peter, I was thinking that I should learn to play the guitar too. You know, if you remain busy then our band shouldn't face a problem.”

She said and unzipped the cover and deliberately pulled out the guitar in a rough way. Everybody understood that she was simply trying to manipulate Peter's acquisition of his guitar. And her trick worked immediately as Peter rushed to his precious possession and almost snatched it from her hand.

"Lish, I will teach you but right now it is not tuned properly."

He tried to make excuse.

"Well, some other time my dear. Right now, you are entrapped."

She said and patted his cheek with a smile.

"Buddy, you are really a Saint who can be tricked so easily."

Alex said. Peter realised his mistake and hung his head down in embarrassment but immediately lifted it with a bright smile.

"Lish, I forgot to give you something."

He said in zest.

"Don't try to fool me. You have lost the game so admit it."

Alisha said nonchalantly.

"Forget the game. You remember, last week you were looking for Carolina Herrera perfume; the good girl blue bottle and you couldn't find it anywhere?"

Peter said in a thrill.

"Yes, I remember. But why are you recalling it? I still haven’t got that. It is my favourite."

Alisha said with a pout.

"Close your eyes"

Peter said with sparkling eyes.

"Don't tell me that you got it."

Alisha said and widened her eyes. Peter didn't say anything and put his hand inside his blazer pocket. In the next moment, Alisha was clinging to Peter's neck and kissing his lips in ecstasy.

"Today it has been proven that we all know our partners very well. Either it’s strength or weakness."

Nina said in an admiring tone while everybody nodded to see the adorable sight where Peter and Alisha were in oblivion.

"But our challenge is still ongoing. And I can assure you, it won't be so easy for you to win."

Micky whispered in Nina's ear by tracing her earlobe with his warm lips.

"Bring it on, Mr Rockstar. I am ready."

Nina said with closed eyes and a quivering voice.
