Chapter 5- The New and Improved Rajesh
"Don't worry about it!"
"Don't worry, don't worry! Are kidding me!?"
"Howard, I am not talking about this!"
"Why the hell not!?"
Howard had decided to talk to Raj about Raj's bruises on his back, as you can see...read, wasn't really going so well.
"If I may interject...
(Raj and Howard at the same time) "SHUT UP SHELDON!"
Sheldon looked horrified and was about to open his mouth to say something again, but Leonard had witnessed the whole argument and didn't think that was a good idea so distracted Sheldon quickly with a toy train, which made him sit on the couch mesmerised by the toy (what can I say Sheldon loves his trains...)
Raj sat on the bed in frustration while Howard paced back and forth in a very fast sort of pace. Leonard just looked nervous and felt helpless...for the first time he was tempted to sit with Sheldon and just play trains like he was a five year old kid again with the need to be innocent.
"I cannot tell you Howard, just leave it o.k.!"
"No way!"
"DUDE!"
"Raj it was scary alright! Seeing them injuries all over your back! It looked like a nutcase beat you senseless or something!"
Raj's eyes widened a little and he shuffled where he was sat, Howard had figured it out and he knew it to...none of his actions got past his best buddies, not even Shelly. It was true he only got so sick when he was stressed, and he was stressed because he had gotten beaten the shit out of in a dark and scary alley way.
Howard took a slow deep breath, his expression was emotionless and scary as hell, and Raj was not being a drama queen he did look very pissed off.
"Whose ass do I have to kick Raj, I don't care if it's a work colleague, family member friend or enemy. No one picks on my friends, especially ."
