Chintu's story
by Guest Wed Nov 05, 2014 11:57 pm
Chintu was on cloud nine. His childhood friend Rajiv had accepted his dinner invitation at his place inspite of his busy schedule.
Chintu and Raju grew up in the same colony. They were a close knit group of about 6 friends. Played cricket entire summer. They all also went to the same school but Raju was one year senior, hence in school their interaction was limited.
After school Raju went into computer science and fell in love with a girl from college, Shalini, who Chintu hated as she had prior love affairs (which for him was a slutty behavior) and he thought she was too arrogant. Raju didn't care for all the well meaning advices, got married to Shalini; moved to the USA; did PhD; created a software product that got acquired by google; and was sitting on millions teaching students, publishing his works and working on new products.
Chintu did his bachelor in commerce and joined family business. Over the years his association with Raju fell off and Chintu sorely missed their old times and friendship. Raju would rarely visit India and even if he did, his trips were very short and busy.
One day he found his Facebook page and sent him a note. To his surprise, he got a prompt and polite reply back.

>>> Rajiv has a businessman's personality now and nothing he does is without an underlying motive. He has forgotten all the colony BS but needs a man on the ground to manage the back office in India for his recent start-up. Who better than Chintu who understands the local business climate? Plus the gullible guy can be hired for a song by invoking the "old friendship". Of course, he is going to the dinner and grin and bear the small talk, but he will ask Chintu to meet him for a drink at the hotel before he leaves. He will spring the offer on Chintu after a couple of beers at the hotel bar.
Am I right so far?

No saar, you're barking up the wrong tree. The story will all be about slutty Shalini that Raju has now fallen out of love with, setting the stage for ancient hatreds to morph into new passions...you just wait and see.

Chintu established the correspondence with Raju both over Facebook and email. Raju didn’t always respond, but was responsive to general birthday and new year greetings, and responded to questions regarding family, and enquired the same in return.
After adding Raju, he also got a bigger glimpse into Shalini’s Facebook, and her social butterfly ways. He had no interest in extending a friendship request to her. Back when she was dating Raju, she made no efforts to connect with his old colony friends, and Chintu always thought it was she who distanced Raju from them, as they had disapproved of her initially.
After repeated invitations from Chintu to meet, Raju once finally disclosed his plans for India trip, and they reserved one evening for a reunion.
Chintu asked Raju and invited two other friends from their old group who were still local and met Chintu often. It was going to be a big night of reunion of long lost old friends and their spouses, one of them being an internationally respected figure in his field.
Chintu’s wife, Lekhi, was a great host, and a lavish menu and evening was planned. On the day of the dinner, Raju and Shalini arrived dressed elegantly and simple, with a bottle of 1982 Chateau Gruaud Larose, that Chintu opened right away.

If there was any awkwardness among many people meeting for the first time, it was over by the time appetizer and drinks round was finished. The appetizers were scrumptious and Lekhi was having a field day by bringing out rounds after rounds of food. Shalini was mostly quiet, but she mixed with Lekhi quickly enough asking for any help, an offer that was graciously acknowledged and refused.
Chintu regaled everyone with anecdotes from childhood, the little pranks they played, and the troubles they got into; especially stories involving Raju, who it seems was always the star of the group. Other friends also gave their inputs. Raju, it seemed had forgotten most of the stories, but with time it was all coming back to him and he was laughing out loud, adding his special memories from the time, whichever he could remember.
Shalini too was highly amused and looking at her husband with admiration. “Why honey, you had such an interesting childhood, I didn’t know!”, she exclaimed after Chintu finished telling the highly entertaining story, full with impressions, of them running away from and angry bees from a broken beehive, which of course was broken thanks to Raju’s sixer.
Something smoldered within Chintu. Honey? She is still so fake. Yes Honey… he was having an interesting childhood with us, while you were slutting around with rich kids.

Before the last drinks were finished and Lekhi's help set up the dinner table, Shalini took her camera out and cajoled everyone to get together for group pictures. "This is for the memories. I am creating an album of this trip." She lined up all the men, childhood friends, for one picture, and then she got all the four couples together for a group selfie. The pictures were great. They asked if all this was for Facebook, and she laughed and replied, 'It sure is, but we also have a gallery at home where we put up all the special pictures'.
The dinner was going well. Lekhi had well demonstrated her skills in Italian food. The conversation during the dinner shifted to politics, business, market, and real estate. From that the conversation drifted to old school friends who were the who and who within the local domain. Raju was mostly out of touch with his school friends, and apart from the ones who made it with him to the US, he was struggling to either remember them, or any other detail about them. Chintu on the other hand, was the database. The women got slightly bored in this discussions, but kept silent while slowly whispering to Lekhi about the food, and other small talks.
And that's when Chintu dropped the bomb, 'Do you remember Manish?' Raju's smile didn't change at all, but he looked sideways at Shalini. Shalini continued eating like nothing had happened, and so did the others. On the surface there was no change in anybody's demeanor, but suddenly there was a lot of tension in the room. Manish was Shalini's boyfriend when Shalini had started college. There was a time when the two were inseparable and were talk of the town. Manish was Raju's friend as well, since the two got together often to play colony cricket playoffs. Of course the friendship fell off when Raju got together with Shalini later.
Lekhi looked at Chintu with an astonished expression, pleading with her eyes to make him stop. Chintu continued, 'Manish Ahuja, you remember? Lived in Astha colony?' Raju said in a neutral tone, 'oh ya, where is he now?'. Chintu continued to give a detailed count of Manish's business and family. Shalini had no change in her expression. She kept digging into her chicken marsala and eating small bits, not looking at anyone. This wasn't enough. Chintu then brought up Arvind Srivastava, with whom Shalini had moved around only briefly before Raju began showing a lot of interest in her in college. Arvind was into real estate now, and one of the friends quickly began talking about the current bubble in the real estate and everyone got into speculating when it will burst. The rest of the dinner went smoothly with everyone feeling comfortable about bashing local politicians.

I look forward to reading your story.

The next part of the evening was organized by two other friends in the party. Dessert was arranged by one friend, and the venue was to be shifted to another friend’s resort that overlooked hills and the airport, where he had arranged to end the evening with campfire and fireworks.
Lekhi went to her bedroom to get shawls for outdoors and called in Chintu to get the car keys. Just as Chintu entered the room, Lekhi said in strong whispers, ‘What’s the matter with you? Why did you have to bring up names of Manish and Arvind?’
Chintu replied offensively, ‘What’s wrong in bringing up their names? Raju and I always talked about them back then, so why not now?’ Lekhi was exasperated. ‘What’s the point in mentioning them now? Why embarrass her? They have been together for 15 years now, how does it matter what happened before that?’
Chintu picked up his keys and left the room. Back then when Raju had declared that he was interested in this new girl in college, it was Chintu who had done the background check about Shalini and Manish and advised Raju to forget about Shalini. Those were the long mournful days for Raju. To see Shalini ride on bikes with the brat Manish, and then later to see her going for coffee with Arvind. Later, when Raju began dating Shalini, the big divide had happened in their cricket teams, as Manish and his goons came up to Raju and asked him to dump Shalini. There was an open animosity. Raju stopped hanging out with his cricket cronies, and took up internship at Shalini’s Brother-in-law’s software company, where he began spending most of his time. What used to be a great camaraderie was all destroyed by one woman. Some enmity created between some friends back then still persisted.
Chintu was upset all over again. 'They have been together 15 years now'. Sure. She seduced the most capable guy in the college, and is now riding high on his money. All she wanted was a luxurious life for herself. That opportunistic … dressing up and posing for all the charities that he sponsors. Who does she think she is fooling.

The group divided into two cars to go to the resort. Chintu asked Raju to go with them. He went up to the car and opened the front passenger door for Raju. Raju held the door and gestured Lekhi to get in, while he hopped in the back seat with Shalini.
The 20 minute drive began with Raju looking around the new development in the area. Then they were quiet. Lekhi broke the silence. She looked back and asked the two, ‘Isn’t your 15th anniversary coming up next month?’ Shalini beamed in the affirmative and Lekhi wished them in advance.
’15 years!’ Lekhi said to no one, ‘that’s a long journey together’.
Raju replied, ‘Yes, and I am the lucky one in this journey’. Lekhi looked back at them and acknowledged that with a ‘how sweet’. Raju continued emotionally, ‘Yes. Shalini had graduated in computer science too. But she sacrificed her ambitions of higher studies, and took up a programming job while I finished my PhD. My own scholarship and pay could not have supported us and the new baby. It was not easy, you know. Life in the US can be very hard. You don’t have inexpensive help like we do here.
‘Later when I was building my product, I was unemployed and detached from the world for months. She took care of everything. Right from putting food on the table, to managing kids’ schedules. When I needed funds, she sold all her stocks and dissolved her retirement funds to help me.
‘Now she doesn’t need to work. Apart from being a full time mother, she does investments for us. I have no clue about anything. Rest of the time she keeps herself busy with charities. All I do is sign checks’.
Lekhi seemed very impressed and looked back to nod at Raju and Shalini. Chintu kept looking ahead while driving. He heard some rustling in the back, possible sounds of Shalini and Raju holding hands.
This was not the Shalini he knew. There could not have been a bigger clash between the Shalini in his head and what he was hearing now. It was also the first time that Raju really spoke about Shalini. He never did that before.

When they reached the resort, the other friends got busy with the arrangements and Lekhi joined them. Raju got a phone call and moved away to take it. Only ones left were Chintu, Shalini, and his awkwardness.
Shalini looked at the campfire being built and began talking to Chintu. ‘You know Raju. He is not a very social person. All he cares about is his family and hobbies, sometimes not even in that order.
‘All his friendships are confined to his hobbies and work, he can’t manage to keep any more association beyond that. Used to be cricket before, and then his research and work. Sometimes he picks up a new interest and drowns himself in that. If I look deeply in his life, he really has had no close friends, nor does he care. And that makes me sad sometimes.
‘I am the opposite of this. I am still close to all my friends from elementary school. We have a lot of fair-weather friends now. But it’s with my old friends that I am most comfortable with, and whenever we meet we forget everything else, because we know we are there for each other no matter what. We have always been there for each other. Funnily, some of them were his friends first, his PhD and early-work buddies, but it was upto me to keep all the relationships going.
‘Raju has no real interest in keeping in touch with anyone. I manage his email and facebook, except his twitter that is work related. I take care of all his correspondence …’
Chintu turned sharply to look at Shalini. She continued, ‘Don’t get me wrong. I do nothing behind his back. I ask him before I write to anyone, and I keep him updated with their replies. But if he was left to himself, he would be a recluse.
‘It was really my wish that he connected with his old friends too, just like I do. Friends, who he could come to without any expectations. He didn’t want any of this’, she said waving her hand across the hills. ‘Sometimes I wonder if I am forcing too much of myself on him. Maybe, he is right in whatever he decides and I should just accept that. ‘
The show was setup and Shalini walked towards others. Chintu sat through it dazed, with bigger explosions inside his head than outside. Friends asked Raju to light up some fireworks too. Shalini took out her camera again and they took turns clicking the group pictures. Chintu had lost all interest in everything by now.
When they were leaving, Raju shook hands with them and thanked for everything. It was clear to Chintu by now, that if there was a counter invitation, it would have come from Shalini.
A week later, he checked Raju’s India album picture on Facebook. The only picture from their evening was a group picture with fireworks that Chintu had clicked.
Two months later, Chintu logged in to Facebook, and found that Raju was no longer in his friends list.

. so you just ended with the Chintu guy being dumped unceremoniously. Good. Such guys need to be dropped like the plaque. We do see quite a few of them around on and offline: the creeps taking a moral high ground and pointing fingers at free spirited women's character and taking cheap shots at them.

I always wonder about people who 'maintain' their husband's or wife's Facebook account. Why is it so important to have FB account if that person is not doing the talking.
It could be me talking to my brother. I could be talking about one of bhabhi's cousins we don't like. We as in us cousins. I'm thinking I'm talking to my brother when it's Bhabhi who is reading n replying. How uncool is that.
Husband wife should share things but passwords shouldn't be one of those things.
I know a lot of people where husband is a workaholic n wife 'maintains' his email social media accounts. So %}{{#%**##.
No matter how good your intentions are - oh I want him to keep in touch with old friends - it's uncool n creepy, replying as someone else. And when you tell them it's you not whose account it is, it's lame.
If the husband wants to keep in touch with old friends, he'll find a way.
And kinnera - calm down n eat a cake.
The guy is entitled to his opinion.

I know a lot of people where husband is a workaholic n wife 'maintains' his email social media accounts. So %}{{#%**##.
No matter how good your intentions are - oh I want him to keep in touch with old friends - it's uncool n creepy, replying as someone else. And when you tell them it's you not whose account it is, it's lame.
If the husband wants to keep in touch with old friends, he'll find a way.
And kinnera - calm down n eat a cake.
The guy is entitled to his opinion.

Woi toh! How embarassing.
I've seen girlfriends responding from boyfriend's account. Sending snobbish replies and acting like it's somehow cute.
I'm not a fan of this kinda behavior.
Ofcoz the poor guy (chintu) didn't know it wasn't his friend but the wife talking to him.
Also, it's hard for me to believe he could be mad at her even after 15 years. People stop being angry at people who actually broke their heart or hurt them in other ways after couple years. Here we are talking about dating and marrying a friend.

Oh ya. You will rarely find perfect characters in my stories. I think the truly 'good' person in this story is Lekhi. All others have their good, bad, and evil characteristics. It's open to the readers to like some or hate some. Or for that matter like all or hate all the characters! That's how I perceive the world as. A bunch of imperfect people interacting with each other and hence the need to be prudent.
