Hiding Behind Smiles

Ridhhant's POV

The house feels so homely. We three were laughing and enjoying and it felt so good.

"Okay Bhai I'll take the dishes to sink, imma go for partying with Sameera well I decided to go for shopping in afternoon but my mind acts inconsistently." Bhumika said.

"Ow my God you're so English." Naina said sipping her water and I let out a chuckle.

"Aw my god you're so adorable." I said and she let out a giggle.

"Haw my God I'm so jealous." Bhumika said and Naina let out a little laugh. I rolled my eyes and took the small plate and Naina joined me too.

"Okay imma go get ready!" Bhumika shouted and went to her room while I headed to the sink with Naina following me.

"Let me do the dishes." She said and I refused. "But that's why i get paid for," She said.

"Take a moment off your Job ma'am." I say playfully. "Uhmm Nandini ma'am will scold."

"She won't ma'am, don't worry."

She hit my arm playfully, "Shut up Ridh don't call me Ma'am." She said giggling to herself.

I stared at her as I did the dishes, the she smiles and the way she giggles everything seem so surreal.

She stopped giggling after a while and got serious, "Ridh? What happened? Why are you staring at me like that?"

"I love when you call me Ridh." I said and she smiled and said, "I too love when I call you Ridh."

After that we continued doing the dishes in silence until I was placing the plates when our hands touched and a shiver ran down my spine. Why is everything good so rare?

Like the feeling of holding her hand.

"Are you planning on kitchen sex?" We heard a voice and Naina's eyes were about to fall out would be an understatement.

"What the fuck Bhumi!" She yelled and it was so loud and her cheeks? That beautiful shade on her cheeks looked so good on her.

"Okay damn. I apologize for stating the truth, imma go bye!"

"" I shouted and "Will try!" Was her reply.

"O M G that rhymed."

"What?" I asked turning to Naina, "Did I say that our aloud?"
"Yes madam, you did."

"Don't call me Madam bhaiya." (elder brother)

"What the fuck?" I said, or yelled..damn it was louder than I expected. "What?" She asked.

"Bhaiya? You broke my heart." I said with a horrified face and all she did was shrug and I swear I saw a smirk for a second on her lips.

Smirk on Naina's lips, I smell something fishy.

"Why have you got any problem with me calling you bhaiya, Ridhhant bhaiya?" She asked innocently batting her lashes andI felt like throwing up.

"You are even three years older than me," she said with a teasing grin.

"Older my ass! I could be your husband too!" I blurred out all serious. Now I could feel my cheeks getting heated and she had a fucking victorious grin.

What did that stupid Bhumika mix in the pakodas that my innocent Naina and is gone replaced by a bold one and I'm the shy one now?

"Sunsets kissed your cheeks Ridh? Why so red red?"

"First of all don't tease me poetically mada- Naina and Sunsets are Orange."

"Okay fine, but sunsets are red too." She said with a grin.
