Na Bangaram (Pranushka)

Chapter 65 - The Road trip Part 1

*About a week later*

Prabhas's Pov:

I put the last suitcase into the trunk and Anushka slams the trunk door down. We get into the backseats of the car and put our seatbelts on, signaling for Rana to start driving. Miheeka gets off the phone with her parents who are watching Krish for the next week while we are on our little road trip. We invited Sam and Chay to come, but they had made plans to go on a trip with Chay's mom's side of the family.

"It's too early," I complain while leaning my head against Anushka's shoulder. She looks up from her phone and shakes her head at me.

"It's 7:30 it's not that early," She replies with annoyance, making me give her puppy eyes and a pout.

"I miss him already, how am I going to stay away from him for a whole week," Miheeka says out loud while leaning back against her seat.

"It's a good break for you two," Anushka reassures her while Rana adds in his agreement with Anushka.

"We can stop at Starbucks in like 15 minutes," Rana says while gazing at the GPS on the car screen for a second before focusing his eyes back on the road.

"Yes please, I need my coffee," Anushka says while laughing. She looks back down at her phone and I move my head a little so I'm looking at her phone screen too.

"Who are you texting so busily," I ask her, my voice a little teasing. She turns her phone over in her lap while rolling her eyes at me.

"A colleague," She replies bluntly.

"Ammai or abbai," I ask curiously.

"Abbai." I raise my eyebrow at her and lift my head off her shoulder.

"Who is also interested in other guys," She adds to her statement with a smirk. I look at her with astonishment while Rana and Miheeka laugh at the two of us. Anushka sets her phone down and holds on my arm while laying her body against mine. I look down at her face which is covered by the hair making a curtain on her face. I push her bangs out of her face and smile at her.

"What," She whispers to me innocently when I don't take my eyes off her for a few seconds.

"You look beautiful," I compliment her, my voice soft and my eyes not leaving hers. Her face is bare of makeup and a shy smile is growing on her lips. Her lips are pink and a little glossy from her appliance of chapstick. Her little dimples come back on her cheeks following her smile, and they are the most beautiful sight.

"Stop," She lifts her body off mine as she gets flustered by my compliments.

"Come here," I pull her arm back so she falls back onto me and I laugh.

"Ow," Anushka complains while rubbing on her arm and frowning at me.

"Sorry baby." I kiss the spot on her arm she's rubbing and then peck her lips.

She laughs at me and sticks her tongue out, childishly.

"I'm not that weak, that didn't even hurt," Anushka teases me back while leaning her back on my chest and taking her phone back out. She opens her camera and lifts it in front of our faces to take a selfie. She leans her head against mine and smiles, "Smile." I look at the camera and stick my tongue out on her forehead.

"Prabhas," She squeals when my tongue hits her forehead and slaps my arms.

"For real," She glares with her finger out. We both smile at the phone, our faces covered in smiles and our heads leaning against each other. I lean down to kiss her cheek and she giggles and takes a few pictures. We take a few more where we are looking up at each other, one of me with my face buried in her neck, and one of me smirking and Anushka blushing when I whisper naughty things in her ear.
