Bewitched

Chapter 10

Mohit's POV

" You don't know anything, I had to leave... I was not safe there... as well." She said in a low voice.

" What?? What happened??  " I asked.

Oh My God !!! So that dream...

" Nothing just leave all this. I don't want to bother you anymore Mohit Ji."

" It's ok, you can tell me if you want... I would not be bothered.  Where will you go?? What will you do?? "

" I haven't thought about it but I am not going back. I will find a job. "

" Were you not scared for your life? It was very dangerous to leave your house at that time of night.  "

" It didn't bother me at that time. As it is there is nothing good in my life... Listen, I am very thankful to you and I know I am sounding a bit ungrateful to you, but I don't want to talk about my life. Thanks for your concern, I will find a job.  "

Oh !! The sweet child was scared and miserable last night. I can't let her go out like that... It's not safe.

" Ok, but you can stay here till you get a job and safe accommodation. "

" How can I stay here?? "

" You are absolutely safe here. I am out for most of the day. And as it is you don't have any place to go. Consider yourself as a housemate or PG. "

" PG ?? How much do I have to pay??"

" Nothing "

" What ?? Why?? "

" This house is so big. I live alone here. I don't even use more than half of this place. It is a waste for me. "

" But, I don't want your charity... "

" It is not charity. It is just a help.  "

" It is a charity. See, I have to find a job, if you want to help, please help me find a job. "  Just then my doorbell rang and I went to open the door.

It was the lady who used to do the cleaning and make food for me. As Manu was pregnant and is at her home. So I tell this lady to make food for me sometimes. But it is usually tasteless.

" Make breakfast and lunch for two. " I instructed her.

" Ok, sir. " She said and I came back where we were.

" My cook and cleaner is here. I will tell her to clean your clothes they were covered in mud. "

" Is she the one who changed my clothes yesterday?? " she asked.

Oh, God !!

" What ?? No... No this one comes in the morning. "

" Oh ok..  "

" I have to go to work. I must go and get ready. " I said and went back to my room.

I did my daily routine, took a quick shower and got ready.

I asked her to live in my house but I knew nothing about her. How could I be so stupid??? But it seemed that she was a nice girl belonging to some good family.

I was wondering what must have happened to the girl that made her left her house?  She said that she was not safe in her home. That's why she was so scared last night and that dream... Oh, God !!

But she is not ready to tell me anything about her and I have already asked her to stay in my home. What if it is all a play?? I must know something about her.
