Fool!

They were from different places and backgrounds, but one look at the three friends- Sanjay,Rakesh & Narayan-gives a feeling that they have been childhood buddies.friendssmiley

Sanjay was a talkative guy from Mumbai, Rakesh was a simple guy from a middle class family in Chandigarh & Narayan hailed from the south city of Madurai, a very soft person and most steady minded of all three.They all met at the "RANBAY" IT campus at Pune and their friendship seemed to brew like an instant coffee, they shared the apartment as well with one more guy called Srinivas.

With the honeymoon period of training sessions over and increasing work pressure-project deadlines,idiotic bosses and rules-the guys were already half hallucinatingComputer Typing.Being the so called lazy bachelors, all three also tried to manage to finish their dinner at the campus canteen itself.

Huge IT campus with dim lit sprawling lawns and few couples having long cozy conversations was a daily sight. While Sanjay and Rakesh loved the eerie looking campus,Narayan wasn't comfortable and did think of all the stories of ghosts which he got to hear at his village.

On a particular day, it was 11pm by the time the friends left the campus. Sanjay insisted to Narayan that he stay at the entrance of the building and he would get his bike from the parking.Fifteen minutes lapsed and the poor soul was cursing himself to have missed the company shuttle cab. His thoughts were jolted by the "screech" of the sudden brake the Sanjay made with his new pulsar. They went home and each one was so tired that they hit the bed without even switching on the lights....

Next day morning, Narayan did wake up late to find all the 3 roommates already off to work. He was groggy but managed to get ready and reach office.The first thing he did was to find his friend, all four gathered at a cubicle. Narayan just couldn't contain himself and asked Sanjay on why he was so unusually quiet yesterday during the ride back. He narrated on how he was talking and did not get any replies apart from the intermittent "hmmm" " accha" "ok".After a silence of few seconds, Sanjay said-i didn't drive u back yesterday. In fact i came from the parking lot with bike in 5 minutes, didn't find you waiting, looked for you at the cubicle and then left-only to find you well asleep in the room. !!whaatsmiley

Sound of thud- Narayan was on the floor, profusely sweating. All the three roommates gave a big high-five and had a hearty laugh saying APRIL FOOL!!!!!:rotflAfter couple of minutes they did try to wake up the bakra...splashed some water,did jolt him up -no response. Each one staring at the other and trying to figure out the next step.Emergency response team comes in and declares Narayan dead.

Fastforward one year, Sanjay Rakesh and Srinivas are still the best of friends and roommates- at the Regional Mental Asylum, Pune. God knows who were the greater fools here.:confused2:

 

Yes...he believes in ghosts based on his childhood stories. So he was shocked enough to die by cardiac arrest.

 

All the four were roommates and good friends.Now to see the death of their buddy just by a simple prank by them was equally shocking enough for them to loose their mental sanity.
