Future - New Year

"I want to talk to you about future. Dad, I'm really concerned that it might not happen. It is very serious issue" said Ram Reddy to his father Dashar Reddy.

Dashar Reddy for the first time, saw something in his son's eyes. He thought finally this new year is bringing some change in Ram's behavior.

"I understand, Ram. I knew you would get disturbed like this, after watching NDTV 24/7 last night. It is about Ruchika case. I know. Don't worry son, that Rathore guy will definitely be punished."

"No dad, its not about that. It is about ..."

"Oh I know. It is about Kasab. You are worried the way, our people are taking care of him, instead of punishing him. Don't worry son, soon he will be hanged."

"No dad, its not about that. It is about ..."

"Okay now I know. It is about Sachin. You are worried that he might retire and not play next world cup. Not to worry son, he is going to win next world cup for us. Wait and watch"

"No dad, its not about that. It is about my fu..."

"Wow, so you started thinking about your future. I'm very happy my son. I was waiting for this moment. I know. I know. You are worried about your GRE score. Dont't worry, you will definitely score well."

"Not dad, its not about that. It is"

"I know ..."

"Dad please stop, please listen to me. This is very serious. I really need your help. Otherwise it cannot happen. Please dad"

"oh my boy, don't worry. Tell me what it is about"

"You know my friend and classmate Lakman."

"Yes I know him."

"And today is 31st December."

"Of course today is 31st December. So"

"So we are thinking about partying tonight. New year, party. It will be fun. I can go. Please"


Dashar Reddy as usual was stunned and remained silent at the wrong moment. Ram Reddy took this as yes, left home for party.


Happy New Year !
