(Continued from previous part of this series… A&R (Part -13))

As the days passed, Aniket and Ritvik started understanding each other better. The love between them grew stronger day by day. The unspoken love, the feeling of being for each-other all the time, was governing their lives and binding them together. There were changes happening in both of them. Aniket was becoming more soft-hearted, caring and passionate, where as Ritvik’s charm was raising by leaps and bounds day by day. Ritvik was already full of kindness, and humanitarian values, but now his personality was glowing because of his flexibility and his acceptance of the love offered to him. His friendship with Aniket had mixed with feelings of love and compassion, although it was not even known to him that his friendship was turning into something more than just friendship level. It was normal for him to feel so strongly attached to the people around him. He always valued the love over and above other things. Bodily charm or sex was never an appealing factor for Ritvik, but if it was becoming a necessity for him as it made love of his life, Aniket, happy, he had no objection in participating in those activities.

Ritvik was trying to be flexible and adapt according to the high sexual energy of Aniket. Sex or bodily charm was never a reason for Ritvik to be with Aniket. This was again a transition period for him. He was willing to change himself up to a certain extent but still he had reservations for anal sex. He informed Aniket in the beginning about his un-willingness to go for anal sex ever, and Aniket always respected Ritvik’s choices and decisions. After all, what all mattered to him was seeing smiling face of Ritivk. He wanted to see Ritvik happy all the time. Clearly, both were at far ends of spectrum of their sexual drives and activity. If Aniket was hyper-active, Ritvik was, mostly, inactive. There were many moments when Ritvik felt “consumed” because of high sexual drive of Aniket, but there were many signals coming repeatedly through various incidents that made him see through it. For Aniket, it was hard for him to control his passion and love for Ritvik, which prominently he expressed through physical love making. It almost became impossible for him to control his strong desires to feel and appreciate the enormous physical charm mesmerizing him every day. Emotions need to be felt, and sometimes, understood properly, but love-making does not need a lot to explain itself. A harmonious relationship  between two hearts and a smile would be enough to stimulate the organs and if it is mixed with a glimpse of physical beauty, no wonder, it could turn out magically to make anyone go out of controls.

Days passed, and they became more and more connected to each other. To a large extent, it was slowly turning them into two bodies with one soul.

It was festive season, with long weekend before the Diwali holidays. There were a total of 4-5 days of holidays in continuity. Diwali is a big celebration in India with multiple festivals day after day in continuity. It was 4:15 PM on Friday, the last working day of the week, when Ritvik noticed an alert SMS popping up on his mobile screen. It was a missed call alert from his mobile service provider. It was not uncommon in India to see such auto-alerts when because of some network issues, subscriber could not receive the calls made to his number and later an alert SMS informed him that there were calls missed by him from a given number sometimes back. The alert was about missed-calls from Aniket’s number.

After he read the alert SMS, there was another SMS which arrived a little late. All blocked SMS were now coming in bulk probably stuck because of network congestion earlier. Aniket texted him, “Called you but ur no. was not reachable. I’ll be late tonight, hv 2 go to a colleague’s bachelor-party.”

Ritvik called him back. Aniket told him that he did not want to go but he had to go out of office courtesy. One of his team-members was recently engaged and today his close friends were throwing a bachelor-party for him. Aniket being the senior member of his team was given special invitation to be there with them.  It was important for him to socialize and be part of memorable life-achievements of his co-workers. Aniket asked him to join him in this party. He was reluctant to spend his evening away from his darling Ritvik. Every moment of his life was pleasant and happy spent in company of Ritvik and every moment was dull and tiring spent waiting to meet him in the evening. As expected, Ritvik politely denied his request. It did not make sense to call your friends who are not your family to a colleagues personal-celebrations.
