You complete me

Chapter 8

   Riaz was now standing holding the door for Eva to get inside and directly staring into her eyes with a fierce expression. Eva stared sternly at him too crossing her arms. Both of them were staring at each other just like how an eagle would look at his prey. 

  Riaz was losing his temper. He had lots of works to do and here he is following a girl hoping to actually propose her. He massaged his temples and when he did so Eva looked at him furrowing her eyes searching for something which clearly he didn't understand. 

"What?" he asked annoyed lifting his eyebrows.

"Nothing" she replied more annoyed stressing her words.

'I shouldn't force her I guess. She will hate me for sure. Like Brent said what if she has already fallen for that fucking john-- what was his name? Whatever! Like I care! ' he thought to himself and massaged his temples again.

"Why do you keep doing that? Do you have a headache or something?" Eva asked, hoping to get an answer.

"Never mind" he replied reluctantly sighing. "Look I don't want to argue with you. I am here to take you home so be a good kid and come with me alright? Dad wanted you to be safe so I can't just allow you to come alone there. " he said forcing himself to smile a little.

Eva for once wanted to smile at least he didn't order her like a boss this time. She congratulated herself in her mind for her success. 

"I am not a kid" she started calmly. 'Well in my eyes you look like one' Riaz thought in his mind. "Anyways I agree that dad wanted me to be safe but I have a few works to do so please try to understand. I can't come right now. I will be there by noon. If you insist you can come by noon to pick me up." 

   "No. I can't come by then. I know it's your day off today so stop lying and before I lose my temper get inside" he said returning to his favorite emotionless face.

"I am not afraid of your temper and anyways why should I lie to you? I am honest that I do have some personal works to do and I can't come by now and that's final" she said firmly stressing the word 'Personal'.

Riaz analyzed her for a moment. She didn't seem like she was lying. 

"Mm.. Let's do one thing. I will take you to your apartment. You can complete those personal works and after that, I will drive you to dad. If you want then I can help you with your works too. Deal?" he said casually which made her widen her big beautiful eyes.

"Help? Can't you just understand? I said it's personal. You can't just help me with that. I mean look at me. How do I look?" she asked making him confused.

He looked at her up and down. She was looking fucking cute with those bear-face printed hoodies and those bangs! She was just wearing normal pants but fuck! she was really pretty. "Well, you look cute, I mean adorable," he said staring right into her eyes. 

"Cu- N-No I didn't mean it l-like that. You know I can't just meet dad like this. I mean you know. I" she stuttered looking everywhere but him. She didn't expect those words from his mouth. What she expected him to say was just insulting words like 'You look like you are gonna have a nap? or something? Because her outfit looked like some kind of comfortable night wares. Like crap!'. Never in life did she expect pleasant words from him.  He was behaving like a jerk but when he was just going with the flow those words involuntarily rolled out of his tongue.

Not forgetting to mention here how handsome Riaz was! He was the perfect example of '6 feet and strong, tall and handsome '. Like a Greek god. His messy dark hair! Those attractive manly eyes. Strong well built body! The broad shoulders! Damn! Any girl could get a crush on him in a minute. Only if he didn't look much scarier, it would have been better.
