"Hey dude that's my seat.." I said waking with my bag pack on my shoulder towards my all time favourite place on Niki's sofa but my bad luck, Tina was sitting there today.

"you can sit with me." Niki offered.

"Rather I would die." I whispered.

"what did you just said, you---- , you should thank god that I don't like using curse words" Niki said glaring me, and believe me if looks could kill I would be dead by this time. Oh God she heard my words.

"It was not to be heard, ahh!! how could I forgot your elephant ears." Literally she could even hear the flies passing by with her elephant ears.

"stop fitghting like two 5 year olds!!" Nik yelled at us and we got seated.

"need some ice-cream?" I said as we were watching tv.

"My favorite flavor please.." She pouted and I made my way to the kitchen.

I went to the fridge and took out her favorite flavor in one bowl and my favorite in another.

And got to the living room.

"Here is you chocolate plus vinalla ice-cream with chreey topping madam" I offerd Niki, and she took it from me too fast. Once seated, I realized that I didn't bought spoons. Niki is too lazy to go. But let's try.

"ohh.. I forget the spoon, I am not in a mood to get back in kitchen..." I said while giving her best puppy face.

"are you going to make me walk be to the kitchen. Its about ummm.. 2 meter walk. I would become so tired." She said looking back in his eyes pleading.

No, it won't work with me. Ok let's try this.

" so you basically wants to drink the ice-cream when it melts. Ok, let's just wait then.." I replied putting the bowl down.

And That worked, she went to kitchen and grabbed the spoon and came back. Sitting beside me.

"want a ice-cream race?" we said in unison.

"what's that?" Tina asked.

"They always do that while eating. Its ice-cream, so its ice-cream race when it come to popcorn the name changes to popcorn race and it continues till century... I told you they much wired than you think." He explained and then continued with his assignment.

After getting comfortable I was about to start when I saw Niki haven't started yet, she was staring Nik and Tina.

"why are you smiling?"I asked her.

"nothing let's start..." She signaled for starting the race and we started filling our mouth with ice-cream.

won the race!

"ohh!! You both won!" Tina said in excitetment. Three of us looked her with blank face, she stopped laughing and then we stared laughing.

"There is always a tie, Tina. Both of them finish at the same time. Foodie I say you.." Nik make a face and continue "I think they don't even know what race is?"

We, actually know what race is. I can't see her loose and can't she see me loose. So why not win together?

"I am feeling sleepy, going upstairs." Niki said yawning.

"good night sleepy head" I said smiling getting up "I am too going, dad will be anytime soon home. Meet you tomorrow" I made my way to Nik when Niki went to my bedroom.

"Bro, I am off. See you tomorrow." I gave a pat on his shoulder and was greeted by a punch on my stomach as he was sitting. Not that hard though.

"I am just going to drop Tina." He said getting up and Tina following the suit.

I hummed and got back to my house.

Dad was yet to return. I went to my room when I recalled something.

I opened messaging app on my phone and wrote the message.

Me:are you sleeping sleepy head?

Niki:yes.

Me: ok dambo! remember early college mission.

Niki: ya I remember.

I know she forgot.

Me :don't lie. You are worst at it.

Niki:hmmm. Good night

Me:Good night

"Karan." I heard my dad calling me from downstairs. I went there.

"How's you dad? You look stressed" I asked.

"I am fine. Just some work pressure..don't worry" he replied.

After little chat with dad I went to my room stetting my alarm five thirty. Niki be ready!

I woke up with my alarm clock bringggg.

Ahh! I am still sleepy. I was again going to sleep when my mind alerted me about why the alarm rang.

Niki!

I immediately took my phone and called her.

After calling her three time already she picked up the call at my fourth call. Heavy sleeper!

"hello?" She said in low tone.

Her voice so innocent and angelic. I can hear her voice for entrnity without getting bore.

"Hello?" Her voice broke me apart from dream.

Ok, here goes the prank.

"you are late, get yourself up or you are going to miss your college. Its already 9:00" I said trying not to laugh.

"Karan, let m-" she was about to say something but paused "what is it? 9:00??" She was full awake now. "where is Nik, why the hell he didn't woke me?" She asked and when I couldn't answer I did the best thing I could do.

"this is not the time to argue you fool." I raised my voice stressing at word fool.

"you are fool, dambo and whaterver I don't know the words ok. I am getting ready pick me up in 15 minutes" and she hanged up the call without even waiting for the answer.

It worked! Some applause for me.

After doing my routine I made my way to Niki's house.

I seriously wanted to see her face when she discovered that she just got fooled by me. My cute Niki!

When I reached the door I saw Niki and Nik talking. Niki looked fresh while Nik looked like he just woke up.

Niki wishpered something giving me devilish smile. Oh-oh...that's not good sign.

"Am I safe to enter?" I asked innocently.

"Better be ready for the war." Nik said and went to his room to get fresh.

"you're gone mr. Karan!" Niki said.

And the war begin!

Just pray for me...!
