Adriana's POV
"You are doing mighty fine,Miss Benette.
I see,you are talented young girl,who learnt in no time to meet our vacant seat's requirement."Mr.Richard say unmuffling the sheets and examining my first edited manuscript.
He is glancing at the sheets with his discern-boss-like-look and in the same cabin,on his left is sitting another lady who is felicitously glancing at the manuscript in Mr.Richard's hand and then at me.
"I am positively delighted to meet you"she flashes her dazzling smile.
"I am glad to get this opportunity to work with you"I extend my hand.
I make my way out of the cabin, feeling fairly spirited after my first work's appreciation.I fish out my iphone from my locker,I cant say that I am surprised to see a message waiting for me
**"what are you doing in the evening, post work?
We can catch up,I suppose!"**I feel,I would have been disappointed not having any.To my amazement, I was expecting.Strange!
I averted from seeing him the previous day.Something in him makes me all haywire, dioriented and flummoxed.He seems so imperfectly perfect,he is renting in my life, space so importantly unimportant.
I feel queasy to revise his words from our last meeting,when our conversations were indulged in imagination on the subject of sharing fantasies,sexual fantasies.Playing rapid fire,giving a loose reign to our fancy imagination.
"Your favourite colour?"
"Blue",he answered"Your idea of perfect date?"i ask.
"A fine wine and dine,scrumptuous meal and culmination of the day in romantic make out."
"What's your take on it?"
"A long night drive,chasing the dawn and culminating it on the car top,lying in each other's arms cudding and welcoming the first ray of light together somewhere far from the rush of the usual city life."
"Bathtub or car sex,whats more fasinating?"he asked.
"Bathtub,since i ld like it to be a steamy,bubling adventure.""I ld prefer an adventurous open staircase experience though"he adds.
"Your idea of perfect wedding or proposal?" I ask.
"I aint the one to plan this cheesy crap,Whatever it'ld be,it sure would be a plain confession, if at all it happens but that's nowhere soon in the way,Commitment is out of question,since I have myself been the one making fun of it throughout my life. I just believe in indulging in sexual fantasies,I aint the man scared of commitments but this tying forever after a couple of intimate exchanges makes no sense to me."
To say I was stupefyed would be an understatement.It took me good two minutes to recompose & think of a reply after imbibing his words into my brain cells.
"For me,it'ld be completely contradictory though,I'ld want a fancy yet non-clitche proposal,not exactly a pomp show until its a wedding announcement.Nothing beats a splendid and magnificient arrangement on surprise.Swoon worthy is what i wish."
"Quite like a girl would want,What is the place you fancy?"he asked.
"Paris or Las Vegas maybe"
"Sounds like something."
"What turns you on the most?" I ask since its my turn.
