1-2-3-4-5-6

1 am they decide...2 am they start preparing....3 am they leave....and the rest you know... (the random story continues)
They had two bikes, 1 Activa and 1 scooty (it was borrowed from one of the guy’s girlfriend). The Scooty guy was a bit scared- ‘If she comes to know that her scooty has been driven to Lonavla, I am screwed’. But somehow others convinced him by saying, “you may get another girlfriend and even a better vehicle, but not another chance like this”
It was 2:30 am now. 2 to 3 of them went to check the fuel in all the vehicles. They came back rushing inside the apartment in less than 5 minutes. They looked as if they were put inside a refrigerator for sometime. One of them said, “Guys lets drop the plan; I don’t think we’ll be able to survive in this cold” saying this he ran straight inside the loo. One of the guys immediately followed him and locked the toilet door from outside and also switched off the light. He said, “So you enjoy here, we are leaving”. The guy shouted from inside, “No, please, open the door, sorry, I am also coming, sorry, please....”
Their attire was so heavy that one of the neighbours (who woke up by their noises) thought of them as Terrorists. One of them had to remove his helmet to calm down their paranoid neighbour.
Now it was 3 am. Without caring about noise, roaring their engines into life they began. After travelling for about 5 kms, one of the guys stopped. He had to pee. The other guys also joined him. They were all standing beside each other in a line alongside a road which connected to the highway. A traffic cop on patrol saw them. The sight of 7 guys urinating at around 3:30 am on the road made the cop suspicious of the guys being drunk. He approached them and called, “hey, what are you guys doing at this point of time?” One of the guys said, “Sir, just a second, let us finish”. The cop was getting furious. “Show me your licences and papers”, he said. They all took out their licences and were handing over to the cop, when he immediately stopped, “wash your hands first”. They took out the bottle washed their hands and showed their licences and papers. One of the guy was carrying his father’s licence as his own was lost. He had replaced the picture of the licence with his without changing any details. But the cop could not figure it out. After seeing their documents the cop came nearer and sniffed them as a Labrador. He found everything fine and left. They felt light (from heart as well as body) and continued the adventure.
After covering for about half the distance, one of them stopped the bike and asked everyone to stop. “What happened?” asked one of them. “Let’s do some photography”. The other guy said, “Here...what is this place?” Without a second thought they all came in to give their poses. There was a fight of who will click the picture as everyone wanted to be in the frame. One of them said, “Pictures would have come even better if there would have been any girls with us”. As soon as he said this, two of the notorious guys thought that he should be made a girl and should be asked to pose like one. So, they took the towel (the one which was being used as a muffler), and wrapped it around his head, saying him that it’s cold and you should cover your ears. Without he knowing, pictures were clicked and he was portrayed as a girl in the pictures.
They reached Lonavla at around 5:30 am; just before the sunrise. They reached the sunrise point before time. Just some minutes before sunrise, they started singing with their teeth chattering with cold “Geevvee mee sssoome ssuunshhine, Geevvee mee sssoome rrain, Geevvee mee oonnother chhancee iee waaannaa grrrrow up once aggggain. LLLAAAA LLLLAAAA LLLAAAA (clap) LLLAAAA LLLLAAAA LLLAAAA (clap) LLLAAAA LLLLAAAA LLLAAAA (clap) LALA LALA LAAA LALAAAA”
The first sunshine hit their faces and brought up smiles. The satisfied looks on their faces replaced the tired and sleepy look. Now that they witnessed the sunrise, they were hungry. They ordered some pakodas and chai after 10 minutes of bargain. After a good filling, one of them took a long burp and asked, “What now? Let’s go to Mumbai” other one said in a grumpy voice with a big piece of pakoda in his mouth, “Shut up; let’s go back and sleep” Everyone agreed to that.
On their way back they saw a small lake. The bright morning sun was shining over the water giving it a shiny golden glow. They were excited at the sight of this and were tempted to go near the lake. One of them pointed on a board on the fencing which read, “Company’s property. Do not trespass” They just stood there looking at the beautiful sight. One of them went close to the fencing and saw that it was slightly broken. He somehow got through it and shouted with joy as if he achieved something great. All of them one by one went through it and reached the bank except one who thought to remain behind and take a nap on the bike with helmet on his face. Another round of photography was conducted. They styled their hair with the water and posed differently.
So now they left and without any halts they reached back to Pune tired and exhausted. No one even bothered to change their clothes. They just slept straight away. They woke up in the evening one by one. One of them said in a tired voice,” Did we really go to Lonavla at 3 am...” The other guy took out his phone and showed him the pictures where he was portrayed like a girl without he being aware. He was shocked,” When did this happen?”
One of them said, “Dude, It just happened, Randomly....” ;)
