(Since I had started writing this story in 2009 and a lot of time has elapsed since then, hence fast forwarding the story by a few years, meaning Vicky and all other characters do not age even though calendar years change)
She had no answer.
It was some time in 2009 that Vicky’s friend Vikas spoke to him about someone known to him in his mass communication classes wanted to explore the option of her getting job in Corporate Communication / Public Relations work in Vicky’s organisation. Vikas spoke very highly of that girl and on asked if Vikas has done it with her, Vikas responded “haath nahin lagaane deti” (she doesn’t even let touch).
Her name was Saba Quereshi.
Vikas knew of Vicky’s hold in his organisation and that if he tried, he could get her an interview easily. He was hoping to nail Saba in return of this big favour. Only hopes…
Vicky saw the CV. Putting the pic on the CV was a trend followed by some. Vicky saw the pic. Admired it and forwarded the CV to the person concerned in HR.
The HR person was very well aware of Vicky judgement and his prowess in bed with first hand experience of both, therefore, Vicky told her that he will meet Saba first and if he found her to be good enough, he will ask them to let the Corporate Communication team head to interview her further alongwith HR.
Vicky told Vikas and told him that he would first like to interview Saba and then proceed. He also said that he would be going to office on Saturday and hence Saba could come that day. It was month of March 2009, Saturday was usually off but he had a telecon to attend with some overseas clients hence he asked Saba to come then.
Saba was from media background and was modern in her dress sense with little focus on the formal or informal dress for the interview.
The reception guard’s eyes widened when he saw Saba. Usually very few people came on Saturdays to office, it was a very welcome change from seeing the same office staff.
Ms Saba Quereshi was tall girl, around 5.6” (tall by Indian standards), big round eyes, lush full lips, nice curvy body, not fat but nice curves in right places, nice silky wavy hair upto mid-back, very fair. Boobs stood proud on her chest, with ass having a nice roundish look. The guard, Rawat, was admiring God’s creation in front of him and thanked his stars that it was his turn for the monthly day duty shift.
She asked for Vicky, Vinod Rawat wanted to drink in the beauty and hence did not call Vicky at once and said that the extension number is busy. After about 10 minutes of visual pleasure, he decided to answer the call of duty and dialed Vicky’s number and told him of her arrival. Vicky told him that he is on a telecon and will call her once he is through, expecting it to end in another 10 minutes or so. Meanwhile Saba should be asked for tea-coffee.
Rawat thanked god again for extension of timings and delivered the message to the beauty. He asked her for tea/coffee and she settled for a glass of water. There was she, wearing white linen caprice that was clinging on to her legs, a sleeveless top with thin straps was showcasing her delicate shoulders. The top was not indecently tight, but tight enough to highlight the curvy property it hid. All in all a delicious package.
Rawat went back to his seat on the reception and continued gazing her. Since was sitting sideways to him, hence the gazing was not apparent to her. Meanwhile, Vicky asked Rawat to send the girl. Like a very polite person, he escorted the girl to the lift, ogling at her ass globs from behind, and pressed the lift button for her. The lift took her to the 3rd floor.
As per directions, she entered a room. A couple of minutes later Vicky entered and apologized for having made her wait for a few minutes. After exchanging pleasantaries, both settled down, he asked her for tea-coffee, she agreed to go for a cup of Masala Tea. She was surely a Garam Masala herself. She too liked the look of the room, the settings and the interviewer.
The masala tea initiated the most basic question - tell me something about yourself. Saba smiled and like a good media person, habitual to speak, she went on and on. The key words /phrases that Vicky liked were, she was outgoing, stays in Delhi alone with family in Kashmir, has a younger sister studying in Srinagar and likely to move to Delhi, her go getter attitude and last but not the least her over confidence in debating ability and her penchant for challenging others in several such rounds.
Vicky smiled at that because he himself was quite ept in debates and taking on many head-on. So for fun sake, he started discussing issue of Kashmir and other related issues. Saba spoke very passionately but just like Page 3 celebrities who loved nonsensical things such “Aman ki Asha.” Then he understood that she would love to go for full scale media job later in life. Since the body form before him was pretty attractive he decided to prolong the discussion and then extracted a promise from her for a debate with a high risk wager as a bet.
He had in mind what he wanted to do. During the interview Vicky potrayed as if he was average in debates, fuelling Saba’s self confidence through the roof. After about an hour or so of mutual admiration, the meeting concluded.
Vikas later on asked Vicky of his opinion of her, Vicky spoke nicely about her but added a condition that she may not like corporate job and may prefer purely media job. Vikas also questioned him about debates etc. Vicky smiled and said “ladki ko lagta hai mujhe kuch nahin aata” (she thinks I know nothing)
Vikas then told him what Saba had said to him and it very much matched what Vicky had told him. Vicky smiled.
“Vikas ek baat bata – isko bahut ghamand hai apni debate karne ki capacity pe” (Vikas tell, is she too proud of her debating skills) Vicky asked.
“Haan yaar woh toh hai – lagta hai iske swayamwar mein debate competition hoga” (Yes Buddy – she will have a debate competition to select her husband) he replied.
Vicky smiled “shaadi ka toh pata nahin par debate mein shart lagaa ke nangi zaroor kar sakta hoon” (not sure of marriage but in debate can make her nude by raising the stakes)
Both laughed.
Vicky had her phone number. He called her. It was a Friday.
“Hi Saba – its Vicky – remember – you had come for the interview”
“Oh surely I remember”
“Nice to know that beautiful girls remember me” he replied.
She laughed.
“Saba I had discussed my views with our HR person. Rest everything is quite good, you are articulate, intelligent, have command over content and presentation, not to mention more than quite presentable and my favourite you don’t shy away from debates. You will be a worthy addition to any organisation and also to ours. But I feel that you are looking at regular Electronic Media job rather than a corporate communication profile. Please tell me if I am wrong in my assessment” Vicky said.
She said “Vicky, honestly, my first love would be a Media job”
“So it means you agree that you are more than quite presentable” Vicky flirted
She laughed again.
“Still Saba you can make up your mind on the tenure you may like to commit for this job and then consider moving to Media.” Vicky sounded very reasonable and then added “I can live with watching a more than presentable girl in our office”
She laughed again and deep down was impressed with his way with words.
“Ok Vicky give me a day or two, will let you know” She said.
“Fine” said he and the called ended.
It so happened that the next day, Vicky was in Connought Place (now known as stupid Rajiv Chowk) and he met Saba on a shopping spree. She was carrying three big bags full of god knows what.
She was looking a dish that day, as usual for her. Both pair of eyes met and lit up. After exchanging pleasantaries and him joking a bit about shopping spree they went to the Café Coffee Day and went to the first floor.
Second term government of Manmohan Singh had sworn in a few months ago only and recently Ajmal Kasab, the terrorist, had confessed his role in the Mumbai attack. The newspaper on the table showed his picture and had some headline running pertaining to his confession. She was the ‘media’ person and he was the one ready to debate on any political issue and as it will be normal in such a scenario, the discussion gravitated towards Mumbai attacks, ---c terrorism and then to Kashmir. As it turned to Kashmir, it touched a raw nerve. She was getting to her combative best. Vicky seized the moment and had sensed the opportunity before him.
He said “Saba it seems both of us have diametrically opposite views on this one. How about a full fledged debate involving some stakes”
Since he was playing the weak speaker, she was sure of her victory and wanted to rub his nose in dirt. The fact that he was neither from HR nor from corporate communication and had taken her interview had hurt somewhere deep down. So it was decided that on Sunday they will have an exclusive debating session.
Now the venue was an issue. She wanted to do it at her place but her room partner was there and she didn’t want to do it in front of her. Vicky suggested that he had a vacant house in Dwarka and they could do there. She thought for a while and then said yes. This was the same place where Vicky had fucked Heena for the first time. But since then that place had come up well. Since there were a couple of more years in his father’s retirement, they had not moved from the Government colony of South Delhi. The house was given on rent for about 10 months but their experience with the tenant convinced them not to give it on rent again.
On Sunday morning, he got a call and the venue changed from Dwarka to Amar Colony, near Lajpat Nagar. Her flat mates (she shared a two bedroom flat with two other girls) had decided to go out for a trip to Agra with their office colleagues and would have been back late evening only. So Saba had it to herself and she felt secure in the environs of her home rather than the opposition’s (Vicky in this case) choice of venue.
He was fine with it. He took his car and went to the anointed place at the agreed time.
After exchanging the pleasantaries, he sat down and complimented her on her looks. She was pleased.
“Achcha kiya ki apne ghar bula liya” (good that you called here) said Vicky
She looked puzzled.
“yaar now I can see the casual Saba”
She smiled.
Over a cup of tea the discussion moved towards the debate. She initiated it and he was not the one to let go and continued.
The point of debate was Kashmir (as expected) and its issues.
Her contentention was that Kashmiris are suffering and Indian Government is bad etc.
His points were very clear.
1. Kashmir problem arose because Nehru was an Idiot and subsequent mishandling of handling Kashmir with Kids gloves.
2. Vast Majority of population was '. and hence issues.
3. Kashmiris want to continue with the “Becharahood” syndrome as it gets more money from Indian Government.
4. Nature of .,
She was taken aback by his four point programme. He had not detailed them as yet but they were good enough pointers for her regarding the course of the discussion.
Vicky said “since debate will be between us, isliye giving my candid views” (isliye = hence)
She was fine with it – as she said.
“So Saba – debate mein Gyan ke ilaawa kya milega jeetne waale ko” (what will winner gain apart from knowledge) he asked
She pondered and then suddenly said “mera daas banna padega” (you will have to be my servant / slave)
He smiled and said “Par ek baat batao kitne dino ke liye” (but tell for how many days)
She thought for a minute and said 2 days.
OK came the reply.
Then came the question from Vicky “Hope the slave game is for both sides” and continued “agar tum hari toh 2 din meri slave – jo man hoga karwaunga aur karunga – I repeat, jo man hoga karunga” (and if you lose, you will be my slave and I will do whatever I wish and I repeat, whatever I wish)
Now backing out was not possible for her. She had to say, yes.
So he laid out the rules. I have given you
Round One (Saba) : The discussion started with the usual attack on Indian state and Indians in general and saying how they cheated Kashmiris. She continued how Nehru promised plebicite, how Abdullah’s governments were dissolved in history etc. how peacefully Kashmiris were living, dilution of article 370.
Round One (Vicky) : He was clear and concise in his response. Infact a bit too precise.
a. Kashmirion ko ronay ki aadat padi hai. Compared to Bihar and other backward states, Kashmir gets 10-11 times more aid from Government. (Kashmiris keep on crying like babies)
b. Nehru was a big big duffer in taking the issue to UN. He should have first taken back the land that Pakistanis had occupied and then integrated the state without special status. This would have integrated the state with rest of the country.
c. Why are you so concerned with Plebicite of Kashmiris only? What about those from Jammu and Ladhak region. Do you think they will like to go with Pakistanis.
d. And as per the UN resolution, the Pakistan Army has to vacate POK and then give it to India and then as per timing of India’s choosing plebicite to be held.
Saba was not expecting such a strong attack from him. There was no way, this man of management should have more knowledge than a Kashmiri girl in Media sector. She was taken aback.
Vicky had a confident half smile.
Round Two (Saba)
Hindus and '.s lived peacefully as Kashmiris. Kashmiriyat bond is very strong and even Kashmiri hindus want independent Kashmir. She went on and on about Kashmiriat and strong bonds.
Round Two (Vicky)
a. As regards to the peaceful living of Kashmiris, as per Vicky, Kashmiriyat was nothing but a big big hoax and why it resulted in cleansing of Kashmiri Pandits in 1989.
b. He gave her links and names of the books giving the truth about Kashmiri Pandits staying as refugees.
c. Kashmir is witnessing an ---c wave and hence you have ban on Cinema halls in Kashmir. The insurgency is part of ---c agenda of Pakistan and other countries of Organisation of ---c Countries.
d. He continued, had so many '.s had to leave their native place in India, there would have been a huge hue & cry calling for secularism.
e. Howcome the land of Great Rishi Kashyap after whom Kashmir was named, has such a large '. population. He thundered, Kashmiris wanting independence only want to merge with Pakistan because that is an ---c country and nothing else.
f. She had no answer – she had not thought about it at all.
Round Three (Saba)
a. Have you seen how much Kashmiris suffer
b. They do not have industry
c. Not that many colleges and good educational institutions
d. Army is all around
e. And all the regular stuff that comes from a kashmiri
Round Three (Vicky)
a. Kashmiris don’t suffer but they show they are suffering. How are they suffering when every government educational institutions and jobs have reservation for Kashmiris. Same is not extended to people from other Indian states.
b. Industry is not their in Kashmir because of article 370 which prohibits buying property for other Indian residents. It is because of kashmiris stupidity. Why should they be allowed to set up business elsewhere.
c. Army is all around because they are there to save people from terrorists.
d. He answered every thing she was saying about Kashmiris.
He was winning. He knew it. Worse she knew it too.
Round Four (Vicky)
a. He said the basic problem is in the concept of religions from middle-east where the thought is they are right and others are wrong. '.s call non-'.s as Kafirs. Why so?
b. He was on fire – he asked a simple question. Why is that wherever you have '.s in majority, other religions do not flourish. He cited examples of Pakistan and Bangladesh with ***** population at start of their independence and now in 2009.
c. On the contrary the '. population as in terms of percentage of total population grew in India.
Saba interjected that '.s were so poor in India.
Vicky was not letting go of such a golden opportunity. He continued his statements of Round Four.
d. Congress and other so called secular parties have played with '. stupidity.
e. '.s wanted a separate ---c entity and they have got it.
f. He asked – who went against Shah Bano judgment of Supreme Court of India
g. Why '.s do not want to adopt Uniform Civil Code
h. Why is that history books do not tell the whole truth about ---c invaders and rulers and how temples were destroyed and Hindus were humiliated.
i. '.s wanted a separte entity and they have no right to crib over lack of growth.
Saba was shell shocked.
She had got Vicky into a mode when he became unstoppable. He had done the same during a debate with ---c scholars and part time politicians and had ripped them apart then. She had no clue of his knowledge depth and was fighting a loosing battle with him.
After a few more minutes of Gyaan from Vicky, she gave up and surrendered.
Vicky main haar gayi (I have lost) she said crying.
More than her losing, her pain was caused by the fact that she had no answers to criticism of ., by Vicky. She felt that her foundations were very very weak.
Vicky could sense her discomfort. Came close to her and said take it easy. He offered his handkerchief to her.
She was touched by his action.
He then continued “kyonki hinduon mein apni theories ko question karna encourage karte hain isliye we have better answers. ., mein encouragement nahin hot, isliye you are not prepared for questions” (since questioning is encouraged in Hindus, hence we have better answers and it is not encourage in ., therefore you are not prepared)
It sounded logical to her. Her foundations had shaken.
He got her a glass of water and said “jeeta main hoon aur daas bhi main” (though I won still I am the slave it seemed)
She smiled.
“jaao tum thoda fresh ho lo” (go and freshen up) he said.
After a few minutes she came back looking much fresher.
They started talking about a lot of things.
He asked her “koi bf hai” (any bf?)
She replied in negative.
Yeh toh ho nahin sakta ki kisi ne approach na kiya ho, koi pasand nahin aaya kya (it is not possible that nobody approached you. You did not like anyone) he asked
She nodded her head and then tried to turn the tables. “tu bata teri gf ka naam” (you tell about your gf)
He told her that how he was serious about Smita and how she ditched.
Tab se koi dedicated gf nahin hai. Zaroorten poori karne waali bahut hain. (since then no dedicated GF but have enough to satisfy me desires)
She did not react but internally smiled.
“Chal ab chaai banao yaar” (please prepare tea now) said he
“main kyon banaun” (why should I) she said smilingly
“Ab yeh bhi batana padega – ek toh main guest hoon doosra kuchh shart bhi lagti thee” (Now I have to tell this also – one I am a guest and secondly we had a bet) Vicky replied
As the import of the bet hit her she became silent and looked lost.
Vicky looked at her and understood her predicament and to lighten the mood said “yaar guest ke liye hee bana do” (make for guest only)
She smiled.
Both had tea.
After tea was over, it was odd. Vicky broke the ice again.
“Saba ab shart ka kya Karen” (what do we do with the bet)
