With him having been in his shoes not that long ago, Johnny nodded his head with an understanding look. It was sometimes difficult for even him to com...prehend how he could take out two, three, or four men within a few seconds with just his bare hands. He didn’t have to think about what he needed to do, he just did what he needed to do. Had he thought about the defensive and offensive moves he needed to make, he’d be dead. ‘If you think the training we give you is hard now, wait until you’re in. He could probably put in for a self grinding machine, maybe even have it draw a picture in the foam for him.He wondered what it would take for Tick Tock to take the job.Determined to keep going, he scanned the next rack of books, kneeling down to see the bottom shelf.

His knees ached, so he sat on his butt and leaned forward to read the title of the first book.The way the words swam. That fifty-kilometer trip back home was just long enough to reset my head. Barely enough. On the other hand, those afternoons and evenings with Oona were the things that had kept me sane for all these years.Even if I visited the place only twice a year now, all the people there knew me. Why wouldn’t they - she had been the most long-term patient for some time now. Against all odds, she had kept on breathing, refusing to die, just lying there with her empty eyes occasionally open. I knew that. While they were drinking I heard the recording (Muddsar said chal randi tera boyfriend abhi 2 4 peg me soo jaega phir subha tak tu humari) I was shocked to hear the next part (Nikita said ha mai tumhari hi rahungi pure time, jab sab hona hi hai tho mazza kuy nahi lu mai) This made the entire crowd silent and after few seconds I heard(wah maza aaega aaj tho).Listening to this I checked for them as soon as the eyes weren’t on I threw the glass in the flower pot. I returned after few minutes.
