Chapter 1 The mango with 10 flavors

A young man in his early 20s is looking at the street with blank eyes when someone cried out in a hurry "Rahul let's go we are almost there. "

"Can't we wait till the bus stop, Sunil? " says Rahul after a sigh but didn't forget to pursue behind his friend.

"Mama (Uncle), stop the bus at the next stop please. " says Sunil as he puts his bag on his back before walking to the gate of the bus and looking at the driver.

"Don't worry mama I remember. " the ticket collector says with a smile before walking behind Rahul and asking "Mama are you with him? "

"Yes, we are here to test the Dashari. " says Rahul with a smile as he looks at the ticket collector.

"Then your visit to Lucknow won't go waste since you are at the right time and if lucky you might even get to test the ripe ones. " informs the ticket collector with a reassuring smile.

"Are you familiar with this area surprisingly," says Rahul in amazement from the confidence from the ticket collector who has yet to grow his facial hair.

"That's without saying since I am local of Lucknow. " says the ticket collecter with a proud smile before he introduced himself after extending his hand "By the way the name is Raj Malhotra. "

"Rahul, maybe you have heard of my name. " says Rahul with a smile before he extends his hand to give the handshake.

"Well it's nice to meet you Rahul. " shaking Rahul's hand says Raj with a happy smile finding this brother funny.

"Same here Raj. " agreed Rahul with a smile as he lets go of Raj's hand.

"Anyway I never tell this to anyone but you sound like a nice guy so I will tell you the truth, although you will find many people selling Dashari however, most of them aren't authentic.

You see the original one is rather small but has the test and scents of 10 different mangoes if you cut and eat it.

So it's hard to find it but you can find it with the help of Hiro Chacha when you locate him then tell him about me and he will help. " says Raj with a smile before taking out a paper card that has his address and number on it.

"Thank's brother here this is my visiting card, you can call me if you get in trouble in Mumbai. " says Rahul handing over a visiting card to Raj when Sunil calls him as the bus came to a stop "Come on Rahul don't just stand there. "

"Can you stop screaming for a moment bro? " with displeasure from his impatient friend Rahul says before quickly getting down the bus and waving at "See you sometime Raj. "

"Don't hesitate to give me a call when you are in Lucknow. " says Raj with a nod as the bus left the friends behind.

"Do you know the ticket collector bro? " asks Sunil with surprise when he saw Raj being so friendly with his best friend.

"Well he was curious about our visit and we had a little conversation. " says Rahul shaking his head.

"Well, you were being rather talkative for someone overproud and silent. " says Sunil with a chuckle.

"It's all about mango and when it's about mango can you even worry about something as useless as pride. " asks Rahul with a smile.

"You are right Mango is the more important and since he has given you information what are we waiting for let's go. " says Sunil in agreement before he raised his hand to call out "Mama(Uncle) over here. "

"Where to? " not long after a taxi stops in front of them as the taxi driver asks with a smile as Sunil turns to Rahul since he was the one who got the address.

"…."

-------------------------------

With the help of the Taxi Driver, it didn't take long for Rahul and Sunil to arrive at their destination and meet Uncle Hiro a middle-aged man with a dark beard covering his whole face.

Although Hiro Chacha agreed to provide them with authentic Dashari however, he doesn't have them at the moment and promised to take them to the mango tree by afternoon since he has some important work to do and even offered them to stay in his house since they are from a faraway place.

For Rahul and Sunil it's their first time in Lucknow so they wanted to tour around the city and politely declined the offer before agreeing to meet at Hiro's house at 4 p.m. before they parted.

"Why don't we have something to eat I am already hungry. " suggested Rahul as he felt rather hungry after touring around the city.

"You took the word right out of me. " says Sunil with a smile as they walk into the closest restaurant before placing their order.

Not long after they started eating their lunch a car stopped right outside the restaurant and walked 4 teenagers outside the car before walking inside the restaurant while using some vulgar language.

"Sonu what are these beggers doing here? " says a tall girl who has a hairstyle like a man before she looks at Rahul and Sunil who are eating their meal peacefully.

"So disgusting I think they might have walked right out of the slam. " says another girl with long hair as she looks at Sunil and Rahul with disgusted faces.

"Just looking at this middle-class fools I want to puke. " says another girl who has her hair tied into a ponytail.

"Come on girls don't look at these bloggers else we might lose our appetite to eat. " says the boy with a serious face before they walk a few tables away from Sunil and Rahul to the seat.

After placing their order it was bound to take long since they asked for custom made to their liking and in the meantime, they had nothing better to do and started mocking and cursing Rahul and Sunil for no reason.

"Come on Rahul don't get mad and just finish the food those spoiled brats of rich are just fools. " knowing the anger of his friend Sunil quickly stops Rahul from doing anything stupid since they are in a foreign town far from their city.

"I know. " although he wanted to scold the kids for their behavior, however, looking at their relatively common dress of the middle-class Rahul knew scalding the kids will only bring them trouble, and leaving this place quietly is the best option for now.

"Look Sonu that dog just gave us a glare, I so want to slap him on the face for looking at us like that. " says the short hair girl.

"Well, he is but a dog and only knows how to act but knowing his place I am sure he will not bite us and you saw how he had kneeled his head in fear and continued eating.

" Sonu the only boy in the group says with a chuckle as he directly mocked them.

"Come on kid don't be so disrespectful since we are your elder. " finally it was Sunil who couldn't take it anymore and says with a forced smile as he looks at the group of teenagers.

"Oh~ my God did that fuc~r scold us? " says one of the girls in disbelief as if she has fallen from the sky.

With tha,t the teenagers started using more vulgar words and the restaurant workers also didn't come to stop them since they are afraid of the status of this group of kids but Rahul who has enough finally lost all his appetite for the food and stood up from his seat in anger before he slowly walks towards the teenagers while his friend says from the back "Come on Rahul don't do something stupid, man. "

"Look this poor moth~fuc ~r is angry and looking at us. " Sonu says with a smile before he also stood up and looking directly in Rahul's eye he asked "What are you going to do m~ "

*slap~*

With a single slap without any words from Rahul, few teeth feel off from Sonu's mouth who felt blank for a moment, and by the time he regained his vision, he saw Rahul has already finished his food and everyone in the restaurant are silent and the girls are shivering at the side.

Feeling utter humiliation from the hard slap and ignoring the pain from his mouth Sonu walks towards Rahul to in anger "How dare you slap me? "

"Why do I need any dare to slap someone as disrespectful as you? " says Rahul with an indifferent face before he walks out of the restaurant with Sunil.

"You just don't move and stay right there. " looking at the back of Rahul who is ignoring him as some air Sonu shouts in anger.

"What? Do you need some more slapping since one wasn't enough for you and want to follow the teachings of Gandhi? " says Rahul with a smile as he turns to look at Sonu who has some blood at the corner of his lips.

"You bast~d do you even know who I am? " says Sonu in anger as he points at Rahul.

"Do I need to know? " asked Rahul with an indifferent face as he takes another look at Sonu but didn't think there is something special about his arrogant kid.

"Do you see that building over there? " pointing in a certain direction where a skyscraper is located asks Sonu with a serious face.

"Yea what about it? " asks Rahul giving a nod.

"That's my dad's Office building and do you know what is that building's name? " asks Sonu in complete rage when he found Rahul not caring about anything he says.

"I don't so it will be best if I take a closer look. " says Rahul with an indifferent face while he thinking 'Let's hope the training I did after returning paid off and I have enough ki for a short distance flight. '

With that, Rahul started flying towards the building before asking his friend "Sunil did you practice enough and learned how to fly yet? "

"Like I told you it's not working man," says Sunil with a serious face as he looks at his friend flying above the ground.

"Then stay right here and I will be back soon after reading the building's name and getting some details from it. " says Rahul with a nod before he flew towards the office building.

Looking at Rahul's back Sonu is now in complete horror while thinking "Who have I just offended? "
