Repeat Coffee..

"So here you are.." said a beaming Sheetal.
"Yes,honey ..at your service" he replied with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Oh yes,pleasure is mine" said a smiling Sheetal when he had asked her out for a coffee in one of their routine chat session.
Sheetal was very excited about meeting him.This was their first meeting.

He looked casual.She was curious like a lady on her first date.
Little did he realize she is going to monitor him like a school-teacher in an examination hall.

Both of them were speechless and were trying to find some words to keep it going.He broke the silence,telling her the six differences he had noticed so far on what she really looked like and what he had imagined in the last 3 months.

"You are beautiful,Sheetal" He ended up looking into her eyes.
"Am I suppose to say,'You are handsome' in response?? " she dismissed his stare.
"Oh that goes without saying..doesn't it?" Ashish winked with a naughty little smile.
"So how is your boss now?Guess,he is still eating your head with the 'Mission impossible'[her nickname for her module]? "
"Well,well,not really.He is "Gone with the wind".. she chuckled.
"Oh..he's on a US trip again?" asking this,he handed her the menu.
"Yes,Good for our team! We are more relaxed till 'The Mummy returns'" she took the menu from him and started surfing through it,not really understanding the words transmitted by her eyes to her brain.
"Trust him,Trust him not..Trust him,Trust him not..Trust him" She was calculative.Her brain calculator had started ticking.So far..so good.She very well remembered how her best friend had judged her boyfriend's attitude during their first date.She was going to follow one such trick on the scapegoat.
"How will he react? Will he be courteous to the waiter?Got to be a little careful with such guys.." signalled her senses.Atleast,she knew it this far.
A waiter was watching their coffee table since long."Waiter.." signalled Ashish.Little did he know,sheetal had already tipped the Waiter for the trick.

Sensing she was not really browsing the menu,"So what would your majesty like to fill my bill with.." he asked her.
"Is he money conscious? hmm,not a good sign.." - alert message from her little brain.
"Hey Sheetal babe ! will you stop it plz..for heaven's sake"
"What?" she asked him with a surprise.
"..guessing me! stop it for a while Lady Holmes!" He was noticing how nervous she looked.
"Hmm,Guessing..Yes ! Oh no.. Not really.One Cappuchino ..no cream for me" she was indeed trying to figure out "If Ashish was a good guy or a bad one" but for what reason? .. she had no answer.
"Hah!No cream..whats a coffee without the cream!" he was indeed wondering how all his girl friends turned out to be very much diet conscious.

"I like it,that way!" her answer surprised him.

"Curt ! Looks like she would not yield so easily.Harwork boy!" he was more than willing to woo her.He liked Beauties with no brain.

The waiter waited like a 'DHL courier Ad'boy counting seconds and minutes.The waiter had got his signal from her smile.

"One cappuchino,no cream ! One caffe latte ..A pair of chicken rolls.."

"Okay Sir" flees the thrilled waiter thinking "The lady must be crazy or playing a prank".

Sheetal and Ashish continued chatting about how they got introduced through the chat room 3 months earlier.All their past Chat sessions got a quick review.

It took just 18 minutes for her brain calculator to show positive scores for the guy sitting opposite to her.....she was definitely impressed!!His scores were rising.

The confused waiter,came to their table thinking "Is it the Cappuchino or the Latte? Which one? Hmm,should have asked it earlier" .The waiter carried out the drama,he made it look like a genuine incident.

He spilled the latte lavishly as instructed on Ashish's shirt."Bluch.."..

Next instant he was wondering if he was standing and dreaming or was he really
seeing "Flames" from the victim's eyes.

He blurted it out "Sorry,Sir .. the cup indeed slipped..my mistake Sir,Iam really sorry."

Ashish was in no mood to listen.The waiter started shaking seeing how his face had turned wine red with anger.

"Oh Shit Man !Damn you..It's your carelessness,how can you be so stupid?".

He scolded him long enough,blunt and rude.His anger never seemed to subside.

For an instant,he indeed forgot about Sheetal and his fakeness so far.His temper rose to an all time high when sheetal tried to pacify him.

"Oh common Ashish,chill.It's just some coffee.Oh,the poor waiter! He can help get off the stains" He suddenly let go of his good-boy image.

"You better stop that,will you?Iam aware of the scenes you ladies create when something like this happens to you" he blurted out.
Now you "Mr.Careless Waiter,will you get this shirt cleaned in the next 15 minutes?" said a fuming Ashish.

The waiter quickly vanished and in the next 10 minutes returned with a not-so-clean shirt.Atleast the stains were gone now. "Ok,Waiter..Please give us the bill" said sheetal.

"Yes..the next best thing.Bills ! Send it through somebody else,will you?" He didn't want to see the waiter's face again.
The bill came quick than it had taken for the coffee and Snack,which by now had turned cold like Sheetal and Ashish.
"Your Bills,Sir!" said another waiter,staring angrily on Sheetal.She knew why!
"Arrogant..Arrogant..Arrogant!!!Hate him.." As was expected,Sheetal's Brain calculator's score was in negative after all this drama.
By the time she reached home,she was willing to forget it all.
"How stupid,for a simple thing..Rude!!Arrogant!!Senseless .." she reminded herself for the 20th time.
The chat-addict had definitely learnt her lesson by now.
Ashish left her an offline message that night "Sorry honey..I have been rude this evening but I also know my sweetheart will
forgive me.Ping me as soon as you are online tomorrow.Your Teddybear is waiting .."
Next day..
Vinay's messenger popped up with her message "Vinuu,this is Sheetal on my new email id.This is gonna be my id from now and
forever.."
"Okay.Tats cool" he typed.
"Hmm,will you,rush back home.." this was hers.
"Why? I want my husband to take me for a coffee today.Vinuu,Will you?"
"Oh sure..Iam on my way,Sweety"
