I walk to bathroom not before grabbing clean pair of sweatpant and T-shirt of Vishal.
It was almost my usual routine to crash at either Vishal or Rehan’s place in the morning to at lest get few moments of calmness.
I turned off the shower after having a bath and used Vishal’s brush to clean my teeth. Gross, I know but who cares. Changing my clothes, I stepped back into hallway and again sprawled on the couch. F–ck, these days, my tiredness level was at it’s best.
” Notorious Billionaire, Max Costello was spotted yesterday’s night with the famous singer Cassie Fox. Rumors tell that they had shared a kiss in public while coming out of the club. Were this couple dating or was it just an one time fling for our Mr. Player?”
I rolled my eyes at the news channel broadcast and threw a cushion at Vishal to change the channel but instead he came and sat next to me with his jaw almost hitting the floor.
” Dude you f–cked Cassie.. The Cassie Fox?”
He nudged my shoulder.
” So? What’s the big deal?” I shrugged my shoulders.
” Man, she’s famous celebrity. She had won numerous awards for her songs.” He exaggerated.
I gave him bored look and ran fingers through my wet hairs. ” Trust me, I didn’t knew her name till morning. She was crying out loud while confessing her love for me. I mean that’s pathetic man. Her face was looking damn horrible when mixed with her mascara and tears. Ew, gross.”
I shuddered and laughed when Rehan passed me disappointed look.
” Learn to respect women, Max.” Rehan said in a stern voice.
Respect my ass.
” I only respect two women. One your wife, Mayra.” I pointed at Rehan then at Vishal. “Another your girlfriend, Tara.”
” You better otherwise I’ll chop off your balls.” Vishal snickered.
I smiled, a genuine one, if I may add. Mayra and Tara both are like sisters to me. And I respect them not because they are women of my best friends but they deserve to be respected.
There’s this hole in my chest when it comes to sister and somewhere both Tara and Mayra fix that hole.
And talk about other women, they are only good for my bed but only for one night. I feel disgusted to f–ck the same woman twice. Call it my over confidence, I know that no women can resist the charm of Max Costello. After all I’ve everything for which they are crazy about like money, fame, panty dropping look, class. What else they could want? But if only they knew that behind my façade, I am nothing.
” Are celebrity singer Cassie Fox and Billionaire Casanova Max Costello dating?”
” F-CKING CHANGE THE CHANNEL.” I yelled and in a matter of second, Vishal shut the television off.
I pressed my fingers over my temple and inhaled a breath to calm myself down.
Hell with this mood swing.
” I am… I.. F–ck.. I am sorry, okay?” I apologized and heard Vishal cursing under his breath.
” Do you want me to take an appointment of psychiatrist for you?” Rehan laughed.
” I am ever ready if that psychiatrist would be your wife.” I winked which made him instantly scowl in response.
I sighed and waited for few seconds before deciding to lighten up their mood.
” Vishal, I don’t know about her singing talent but I must add that she was quite a screamer.” I smirked.
” Who, Cassie Fox?”
” Duh.”
” Dude, why had you called me here?” I asked, suddenly remembering that he had ruined my sleep.
” Rehan needed a little favour.” Vishal replied.
I nodded and shifted my attention to Rehan who was munching on the bagels.
” I have to meet Drew’s class teacher, can you pick Mayra from her clinic?” He asked.
” Off course.” I smiled.
I looked at Rehan and automatically my mind started wondering that how lucky he is to have a loving wife and son by his side.
” Max you’re so single.”
Vishal whined out of blue.
I rolled my eyes at his annoying behavior and shifted my gaze to Rehan who was chuckling at Vishal’s statement. F*ck them, they can be so irritating sometimes. I was about to throw a cranky remark but caught my tongue back as a better idea struck into my mind to make them burn in jealousy.
” What can I do Vishal? The two perfect women whom I would have loved to call as my girlfriend are already committed.” I faked a little sulky tone.
Vishal’s expression turned to curious one as he shared a look with Rehan. I smirked mentally and worked more on acquiring a gloomy look.
” Who?” Rehan asked to which Vishal nodded eagerly.
Seriously? They still didn’t get the clue? Well maybe they have so much smitten in the love that their common sense was no more common.
” I am talking about Mayra and Tara. I mean those two are like perfect. I wish they were single so-”
But before I could finish, they beat me with their loud cursing.
” Bastard.”
” Asshole.”
I doubled over laughing at their funny as f*cked face and shoved my middle finger in the air.
” Beware, you don’t know about my charms. I can totally make your Women head over heal for me and then you two would become like a love sick vagabond who will cry their tears out at all those pathetic breakup songs.” I added which worked like a fuel.
But after a few seconds they both burst out laughing making my lips to curl in genuine smile. This is good. This all is good. We are once again back to our High school friendship. They both are like my family and at this moment I can ask nothing but their happiness. Now everything’s right and I will hope that it will always remain like this.
” But really man, you should get serious and find someone who’ll be worth spending your life with.” Rehan spoke.
I rolled my eyes but couldn’t help to feel the emptiness taking over my heart. Someone worth spending my life with? I swallowed a thick lump down my saliva and avoided that thought.
” Why should I settle down when I can f–ck sexy women, whenever I want?” I raised my eyebrows at them.
Rehan threw a bagel at me and Vishal just rolled his eyes, once again switching on the news channel.
” Max Costello was caught storming out of the Cassie Fox’s house this morning, that too, shirtless. Seems like they are having an affair.”
I groaned, finding my pictures on the screen. Motherf–cking paparazzi.
I glanced at them who were all ready to throw some mocking comments but before that could happen, I threw my hands up in air and stood up from the couch.
” I am going to pick Mayra.” I announced and left Vishal’s house.
