A Semester In IISC (4) - Emily Rose at 3 am

We have a small study group in IISc, with amby, anjooraan, aliyaar and nikri being the main stars.. We have certain routines which we do every week.. like movies every friday night, cycling every satuday night and dinner every sunday night..

It is one fine friday and, ambi and nikri are in tvm coz we got some 5 straight holidays.. Since i get too sad when i come back if i go home, and that it takes me around a week to get over it, i decided not to go.. It was anjooran who came up with the idea, i think.. he suggested we could watch a movie in aliyaar's room.. his roommate is currently in delhi having dropped out from IISc.. but that was something the hostel authorities are still unaware of.. so we had the room for ourselves.. now we have to decide which movie.. So i suggested "Exorcism of Emily Rose" .. its a nice horror thriller, which argues the spiritual side and the medical side of possession... There's a suggestion in the movie that 3 am is the hour of the devil.. being the exact opposite of 3 pm, when christ was said to be crucified...

From that day, we started the friday night movie routine.. .. and the 3 am joke series.. the story goes that anjoor woke up at 3 am that night to take a piss and seeing that time was 3 am, controlled the urge and went back to sleep...  we still text eachother "one,two,three, four , five, six" if we are still up at 3 am... i dont think any of us will ever not think about emily rose, if we ever woke up at 3 am....
