Let's play 'passing the pillow game'
Sam would always come up with different game ideas to add extra memories to their college diaries.
All their common friends gathered in the gallery and one was employed to play music.
"The person having pillow in hand when the music stops should answer the question asked. " Sam explained."
"We boys do play this game in hostel. But nobody can bring a pillow to gallery now!" A guy laughed.
Everyone burst into laughter.
"Let's use a bottle." Anu came to her rescue.
"We girls know many games you can't even imagine about! " Sam's friend added.
"And we dayscholars envy it." Someone shouted.
"You eat home food and need not wash your clothes or clean your room." A hostler busted.
"You guys have lot of freedom in hostel. You can sleep anytime and wake up anytime. You got individual rooms. You can roam, order food online often, can talk phone calls freely, need not read..... " Someone vented out.
"But girls should return to hostel by 7pm! And not everyone would have gf or bf to talk! " A girl cracked up.
"You can talk with friends too! " Anu smiled.
"My dad would have beaten shit out me, if I say I want to start working on other hobbies like Rishi, Manasvi, Anu, and all. Your parents wouldn't know what you do in hostels. You are lucky! " A frustrated guy said.
"Their parents are encouraging too. Except Manasvi's." Someone corrected.
"Some Indian parents are awful attimes. Majority are scared of risky career options! " Other said.
"Guys shall we start playing? Let's discuss these in debates." Arun snapped.
All those who were silent, thanked him inside.
"Question to Sam! Tell your facepalm moment." Ritu said quickly.
"When I was going home last year on bus, I saw a man carrying a small baby on shoulder. They were about four seats ahead of me. The baby was faced towards me. I kept on looking at the baby often. I noticed a guy standing next to them, looking at me, nearly after an hour. I then realized the guy thought I was looking at him. I had a facepalm moment and turned my head towards the window. Poor guy, he looked at me expecting a conversation, when were getting down. I ran from there quickly to save myself from embarrassment. " Sam gasped.
There was silence for a minute. All laughed so loud that dogs roaming there in gallery ran away.
When it was Rishi's turn, a girl asked "How many girls did propose you till date?"
"You shouldn't lie Rishi. You are handsome and popular. We can guess." A guy added.
"Common guys, he is our college hero too! " Rishi's friend continued.
Rishi gave an awful look.
"3 during schooling, one of them was a senior. He was popular dancer and guitar player then. " His school friend yelled.
