Daddy’s Baby

(For the last 3 weeks, I’ve been writing a lot of stories for #StoryADay. The day before yesterday I had a story called “The Loony: Who” published. Yesterday, we were asked to kinda write a remake of a story we have written during the course of the Contest. I chose “The Loony: Who” but this time from Ronny’s PoV. Now find out for yourself, dear Reader, if Ronny was the only insane one among the three. So, here is the remake of “The Loony: Who” titled “Daddy’s Baby”. Hope you like it.)

Daddy’s Baby !!!

“That girl Tanya’s a bitch, I’m telling you,Ron. So, be careful.” Ronny’s mother told him as he was getting into his car. “And my cousin, Biplab is no hermit either. Very possessive, he nearly strangulated a friend of mine when that friend asked my hand for a dance on my birthday bash….!”

“Don’t worry, Mom. You know I keep a safe distance unless someone tries to play games with me…” Ronny replied, looking at his reflection in the side-mirror of his Nissan before easing himself behind the wheel. He was pleased with what he had seen in the mirror. Jennifer would have to give up her long-time boyfriend now. Thinking about Jenny, he thought about their last rendezvous. He broke into a smile as he turned the engine key. It’s going to be a long, unending day, he thought to himself.

***************************************************************************

The lift stopped on the 13th floor. He got out. Uncle Biplab’s apartment was the right. Ronny ambled across the corridor and pressed the calling bell.

No reply! He rang it again with the same result. It was 2.41 PM by his watch. He must have fallen asleep. Thinking like that, he kept ringing the bell till the door was opened. Uncle Biplab didn’t look very happy to see him at the door though his mother had informed him long before.

“You sit on the sofa while I get you something.” He said and hurried to the kitchen. Ronny felt upset as he didn’t come to their place because of his thirst or anything like that. His was like a social call, at the request of his mother. Relatives were getting to be fewer in number, she’d say. It was best to keep in touch with the few they had. But this was not how he expected Uncle Biplab to greet him. After all, the last time they met was during his thread-wearing ceremony. He couldn’t have been ore than 9 then!

While all those thoughts were going through his mind, he happened to see the framed photo of a girl in a blue sari.

“That must be her.” Ronny got up from the sofa for a closer look. She was a stunner, no doubt, with her hair worn in a bun with a garland of Jasmine around it. Large, dark eyes; graceful figure ( Surprising! Wasn’t she a volleyballer or something?), luscious lips and all that. But something started bothering Ronny as he took a closer look.

He had never met her. How come the face looked so familiar? Where did he see her before? 

“I hate that dashing boy in his jeans and white shirt. He seems too smart for my taste.” Biplab thought to himself as he poured the juice into two glasses on the tray along with the cake on the plate.

The boy was not on the sofa when he came out with the tray. Having out it down on the tool, he looked around.

“Come on. I brought you some juice and snacks.”

Though Ronny had heard him proper and clear. He pretended not to have! He could have asked him about his preference in the first place. Biplab had to call out for a second time to get him back to the sofa.

Something is dreadfully wrong with the boy. It was as if he found it difficult to take his eyes off Tanaya! Sitting across from him, Ronny still kept looking at the photo.

Then he recollected. A few months back, one of his friends, the only son of a rich businessman in the city, told him about a new trend going on in some posh areas of Kol. Some college girls were earning a whopping amount, selling their bodies in their spare time in some reputed hotels. He even showed him a photo of a stunning looking chick at that time. Someone his friend, Neil, had had a nice time with.

That face had temporarily set his mind on fire! My God! Tanya….

There was a knock on the door. Ronny just thought it proper to open it as Uncle Biplab was sitting further from the door.

She had to be Tanya.

“Hi, I’m Ronny.” Ronny put his hand forward as she came in. She was even better looking upclose, he couldn’t help admitting. He was still holding her hand when Ronny caught her looking at her father. Almost immediately there came a strange look in her eyes. Ronny could feel her body stiffen as she turned back to head to the room on the other side.

Just then he remembered. The girl in the photo had a mole above the upper lip on the right.

Ron had to find out. Stretching his arms out and grabbing sister Tanya’s shoulders, he stopped her.

“What’s the hurry, Sis? I’ve barely met you.”

She was smarter than Ronny believed she was as she looked back and told him something about being stinky and going up to the pool for a bath.

“There’s a swimming pool up on the roof? Wao! Mind showing me that?” It was hard to believe that there could be a swimming pool on the roof of a skyraiser in the heart of the city. She teased him then about his girlfriend in New Town. 

How did she know about her? From Mom? Ronny was confused with all kinds of emotions going through his mind.

What did she tell him about having juice? There was something tempting in her tone! It was as if she was challenging him. Before he could think any further, she came out in a bikini with a kit slung over. She looked Ronny straight in the eye and yea, extremely provocative.

Though Tanya had left the room but Ronny kept on looking at the door thinking of his last meeting with Jenny. She’d never think of seducing a man again! 

When he caught her in the night club, She had a short, skinny skirt on, barely down to the knees. Her red lips, the pendant at the V of her neck with the top button of her shirt open – well almost everything about her spoke of passion, desire, lust.

Ron cornered her in the washroom and could have wrung her neck…..

Ronny was brought of his mood by Uncle Biplab saying something about New Town. Without bothering to reply, Ronny got up and in two steps was out of the apartment. If sister Tanya took him to be a mere toy, she still had a lot to learn.

Ronny was in such a foul mood that he wasn’t even in his senses as he climbed up to the 23rd floor and found himself opening the door to the roof. He wasn’t bothered about how she would feel about all this.

What did Neil say? The girl was a demon in bed. Barely out on the roof Ronny looked at the pool in the middle. On his left, there was a small wall, not more than a foot tall. 

Just then he had this errie feeling that someone was close behind! He turned his head back. Just for a moment, he thought that someone moved aside. It was difficult to see anything in the dim light of the passageway. Thinking like that, Ronny focussed his attention on Tanya.

He had to teach that girl with a ravishing body that not all boys are to be played with. And then came the push from the side, completely unexpected.….as he found himself flying over the wall and plunging down to eternity.
