“Yes, I was involved in the bank robbery.”<\/p>\n
Sameer looked at her stunned, “Are you serious? Don’t joke around.””I am… serious.”<\/p>\n
“Are you mad? What happened?”He asked eyebrows arched.<\/p>\n
“I was suffering from a serious bout of monetary insufficiency.”<\/p>\n
“So you robbed the bank. Do you know how serious that is?”<\/p>\n
“Absolutely.”<\/p>\n
“Why didn’t you come to me?”<\/p>\n
“I would have had to explain and spread my legs – the bank was easier.””Shit! Are you some kind of a nut? Where’s the money?”<\/p>\n
“Safe, mate, safe: safe with my parents.”<\/p>\n
“So you’ve involved them – such simple honest people.”<\/p>\n
“They don’t know anything…they are just looking after a duffle bag for me.””They are, nevertheless, in grave danger.”<\/p>\n
“Then do something, man – I didn’t come here to just get fucked by you. You know a lot ofpeople and carry quite a clout. Use it man…get me out of this.”<\/p>\n
“So now you are using ‘fuck’ to get me to help you out?”<\/p>\n
“You want me to leave?”<\/p>\n
“No, of course not!”<\/p>\n

“I was waiting for that.”<\/p>\n
“Well, if he is caught he will squeal.”<\/p>\n
“Will you marry me?”<\/p>\n
“Are you for real…?”<\/p>\n
“I’ll save you and your friend only if you are my wife. That’s not unreasonable, I’d say?””O.K.”<\/p>\n
Okay to all three: me saving you, me saving your friend, and you marrying me?””Shit, O.K.”<\/p>\n
“And being my wife in thick and in thin and….”<\/p>\n
“Get on with it before I change my mind.”<\/p>\n
“If you do, change your mind, I promise, cross my heart, I will come and visit you in jail.””Very funny!”<\/p>\n
“It’ll cost you five lacks – there are a lot of grubby hands I’ll have to cover.””It’ll take me three to five days to get the money.”<\/p>\n
“Right. And then on the seventh day the Lord will make you and me husband and wife!””You’re a fucking freak, man.”<\/p>\n
