Excerpt from the story 'Only hard work pays!' (from this e-book)
That night
Madhav was going to visit a bar where his girl-friend was a bar dancer. He extended
an invitation to Suresh too. “You’ve always refused to indulge in any vices
along with me and our friends. But today, I request you to accompany me for
this show. I’m sure that your anxiety will be greatly reduced and you’ll be
able to relax a little.” Reluctantly, Suresh went along with Madhav to the
show.
The bar was
a dingy, smoke-filled room where several pot-bellied men, ruffians and some
white-collared men sat on chairs around dinner tables and ate and drank
non-stop, talking garrulously and ogling at the scantily clad dancers, who went
about their dance moves set to the latest popular movie tracks, like robots.
Every once in a while, a drunk man would unsteadily get up and throw some notes
on the dancers. The girls would scramble to get them and continue with their
‘job’.
“What would you like to have?” asked Madhav
solicitously, as he blew a kiss at his girl-friend, who repeated his action and
laughed, even as she lip-synced the song blaring from the music system.
“Nothing,”
said Suresh tersely. He cursed himself for having accompanied his cousin to
such a sleazy place. He just felt nauseous and uneasy. He longed for some fresh
air. “Would you mind, if I just went out for a while? I need some fresh air.
I’m feeling claustrophobic.”
“Suit yourself,” Madhav said airily. “I’ll
order something for both of us. The mutton biryani here is really tasty.
I’ll also order wine for both of us. Today, I’ll show you how you must enjoy
life. Come soon.”
After 10 minutes, Suresh braced himself
to go inside that smelly room once again. How he
wished that he had refused
Madhav’s invitation in the first place!
END OF EXCERPT
