Random Tandem Madness...

Alrite... Since most of us are suffering from writing block, we decided to play the drunk game online. Tandem story...

This is how it goes - One person (in this case, me), starts a story and writes a paragraph. From there on, authors take turns in adding another paragraph in the comments to the existing one/s to build the story. The goal of each new section should be towards building the character and the plot of the existing storyline.

So, here goes:

Ravi woke up with a throbbing head. "Gosh!", he thinks as he looks at the alarm clock that reads 09:30, "I have to be at work today at 10:30!". He tries to recollect how he got back home after a drinking binge with his gang at Sumit's bachelor party. There seems to be a hole in his memory, and he diverts his thoughts to the day ahead. Meeting with Dynacorp at 10:30, lunch with his CEO, briefing with the C-level at 15:30 and then head over to the Hilton for Sumit's wedding. The day could've been busier, with him being the youngest CFO of one of Mumbai's fastest growing broking houses. Snatched from the heart of UP and planted in the break-neck pace of Mumbai, he enjoyed the anonymity of the city, but yearned for more free time. He takes the elevator down to the basement where Munna, his driver, ready by his BMW M3 was waiting. He rolls down his window for a quick smoke and is greeted by the smell of Mumbai he could never get used to. He puts off his cigarette and checks his PDA. November 26, 2008. 3 Appointments. Everything under control.
