It is Monday evening around 5 pm and there is a small red coloured house at the end of the street. A man opened the gate of the house and entered the compound. The man took the keys under the flower pot and enters the house. He straightly goes to the balcony and takes out the cigarette pack which was hidden under the small table. He lights the cigarette and starts to smoke. He covers the window of the balcony with the curtain in a way so that he cannot be seen from inside the house.
At 6 pm Krishna comes to the house and notices that the house is unlocked. He quickly goes inside and starts to check everything inside the house. Krishna calls his friend Surya to give an earful talk about his negligence towards the house, but he did not pick up the call. Krishna murmurs in anger heads to the bathroom to take a bath. After 20 minutes of thorough bathing he comes outside and starts to get dress up. Meanwhile, he smells a cigarette and comes out of his room thinking of scolding Surya.
"Surya how many times should I say to smoke on the terrace and why did you leave the house unlocked" and he opens the curtain. Krishna sees a man instead of Surya and gets shocked. He starts to shout at the man and said" Who the hell are you" as the man starts to walk towards Krishna.
Relax kid. Don't worry.
How can I be relaxed and why are you asking me to relax and why are you even like me.
So many question eh!! I am looking like you because I am you.
What heck are you even talking. How can you be me when I am still here.
Because I am 30 years old, and you are just 20.
What? How is that even possible.
Time travel I say.
Time travel, that is an absolute bullshit. You are saying that you are me and if I am really you, Do you really think that I would fall for that kind of bull shit ha?
Well you have a point there. I agree with you. So tell me what should I do so that you will believe me that I am you? OK how about this? Ask me any questions that can be answered by only you that means me. If I answer them you should believe me. Remember the answers should be only to you not even our mother. What do you say ? Do you agree?
OK, But stop saying our mother. She is my mother because you have not answered any of my questions yet?
Ask me the questions then.
OK
First question, Who is our first crush?
Well if I remember correctly her name was Sindhu. I used to have a huge crush on her. I was in the second grade back then. I was in section A, and she was in the B section.
How did you know?
Because I am you, You idiotic moron.
That is an easy question some of my friends knows her name but the next question will be quite tough.
So let me ask you the next question and this time I will make sure to ask a difficult question.
Says Krishna who is 20 years old.
Krishna who is 30 years old says "I am all ears."
What is the weirdest place we ever pissed except for the college campus?
Well we pissed from the terrace of our apartment by standing on the wall of the terrace not once but twice if I remember. Is that correct?
The young Krishna says yes in a trembling way. He says that"Even though I said that I would ask you three questions, I am not going to ask you the third question since you answered this question because I never said this to anyone not a single soul on the earth knows the answer to that question". After saying that young Krishna drinks a glass full of water and burps loudly.
So you really came from the future. Huh!
Yes as I said I came from the future.
Both fellas sit in the opposite direction of the table and the elder one asks the younger that if he has any questions to ask about himself about the future.
So do you want to know about anything?
No.
Think wise mate.
Well let me think for a minute. Ok I got two questions. How are our parents? And how about our brother?
Well mum and dad are good. They are doing fine and our brother got a family. He is also earning good everything is fine. After a longtime our family is happy, I mean it they are really happy.
I am glad to hear about that.
Don't you want to know about yourself?
No I guess.
Well come on man at least ask something.
Are you a virgin?
What?
You heard me right. Answer the question.
Well....
Please do not say yes.
Well I am not a virgin.
Thank god I am not going to die a virgin. I am so happy to hear that mate. So tell me how did it happen? Was it good? Who is the girl? Is she pretty? Come on answer me.
Kid relax for a minute. Is that what you wanna really want to know? I came from the future mate. You could ask me many like, Did we become a filmmaker?, Or did we had a family, So did we made awesome films? But all you want to know is about the sex?
Ok tell me if you meet 50 years of yourself, What is the first question that you want to ask? Come on answer me.
Well ...,
Come on say it.
I want to know whether I am still active down there when I turn 50.
Why? Don't you know want to know about the future when you are 50?
No.
Why?
Young Krishna and the elder Krishna starts to answer the question at the same time.
"If you know what is going to happen tomorrow, What is the point of seeing tomorrow."
The young one and the elder one starts to laugh loudly.
So you do not have any interest knowing about the future, Huh!, says elder Krishna.
You can say that because I do not want to know whether I achieved the thing what I aimed for in advance. Because that makes me lazy, and it makes my mind relax which would alternate the events of the future. So let us not talk about it for now. What do you say?, says younger Krishna.
I thought I was so idiotic when I was your age but seeing you now makes me recall that even though I was an idiot, I was not completely an idiotic moron back then.
Well we always underestimate ourselves, but that is a good thing. You were idiotic just tell me that you are an idiot in the future also.
So you are asking me whether we are going to be idiots or not in the future? Hahaha,.. Bakayaro, what do you think? Do yo want to guess?
Well I suppose no matter what the consequences we face in the future we will be always idiots I guess. Because like our mother and some of our said that even though we have the potential to do the great thing. We will not do them because we are too lazy to do anything, and we do not take anything in a serious manner.
You said the answer yourself. But you know some things are changed. We are idiots hahaha you do not have to worry about that but even though we are lazy, We are not going to be completely lazy. You have to recognize it by now. Look at my body, How is it? Huh!
Wow! I did not notice it at all. You became fit like you have muscles. What is your age again?
Well I am 30.
You do not look like 30-year-old man. You are looking like a man who is in his mid 20s. Furthermore, you are looking so great.
I know that you stopped smoking for a while but this is a small gift from my side. Here take it.
This is the Navy cutt wills. I tried it once, It is damn smooth. Thank you.
The whole pack is for you but promise that you will not smoke it up all in one day.
I promise you.
So, You really do not want to know about the future?
Well actually let me guess, You are looking good that means you either achieved our goal or you are on your way to achieve it. You presented a full pack of cigarettes, and you have two other packets in your pockets. That means you are earning good. Because we are not the kind of men who would go for false prestige, and make a living of it. So I do not have any important questions. By the way have you ate anything?
NO.
Ok, Wait here I will go buy some chicken.
Come on man there is no need of it.
Shut up mate it is already 8 in the night. We have to eat something.
Young Krishna goes out and bring some chicken and starts to cook while listening to some classic old songs. Both fellas finish dinner by 10 pm and sits in the balcony with a cigarette in each of their mouths.
I will leave after I complete the cigarette, Says elder Krishna.
Well that is quite sad. Can't you stay for a bit longer?
Come on mate I am not your girlfriend. I have to go to the future.
How will you go? I mean, I did not see any vehicle outside the house.
I just have to walk out of the door. That is it.
Ok.
Well then I will take my leave.
Wait a minute as I remember now, I have few things to ask.
Your time is up kid. I have to leave.
Well can you tell me the ending of Onepiece.
NO.
At least tell me whether Shanks is evil or not? You know how much we love him.
Well Shanks is.... Bleh!!! Hahaha!!
Well screw you mate at least tell me whether Prabhas got married or not?
Bl eh!!!!
You know why people around us hates us so much?
Why?
Because I hate myself.
Ok then, Jaanee!!
Elder Krishna vanishes right after the moment he steps out of the house.
The younger one walks to the balcony and lights a cigarette by looking at the moon.
