Spontaneous Attachment

17

The weather was a bit cool and breezy,dark clouds blanketed the evening sky,probably a sign of rain and also not a great time to go on a date.

I sighed for the fifteenth time after arriving at a restaurant which Aabid picked for us.
It wasn't bad,just a normal Turkish restaurant. but I was really bored at the moment and I wasn't even listening to him.

"Excuse me please"
I told him as I stood up to go to the restroom for the third time. not that I do anything there,just to pass time.

I entered the female restroom and went to the sink,my face looked tired when I looked into the mirror,why had I agreed to the date in the first place?

'Zoya'

She's going to pay for this.

I splashed water on my face and used a toilet roll to clean my face and adjust my make-up.

I went back and took my previous sit.

"So as I was saying,my mom has been asking me to bring a girl home,she's so sweet you know, I'm sure she would love you..."

He has repeated this sentence almost 4 times, I really can't do this. Choosing a life partner can be very hard.

"I'm sure she would"
I replied nonchalantly as I checked my wrist watch.

"Yes,and my sisters,they're so lovely...they would consider you an older sister"
He gushed happily while he took a sip from his mug.

I mentally rolled my eyes,he's too obsessed with his family,since we arrived,the only thing he talked about was his mom and sisters,it's getting boring. So I decided to end it.

"Aabid, I think it's getting late,and it's cloudy,I'll be on my way"

"Ok,I'll drop you off..."
He started but I cut him off.

"No...don't worry, I'll just pick my car at the hospital and drive home,thanks for the date"

I gave him one of my fakest smile and walked away.

"But... Fauzia "

I didn't answer him as I quickly flagged down a cab, I told him the address and we took off.

The cab driver dropped me at the hospital and I went to pick my car,the sky has become darker and maybe a heavy downpour is expected.

I entered the car after unlocking it and ignite the engine,but it gave a weak noise and died, I tried again and again,but nothing happened.

Why are things happening to me?

I got down and locked it,before walking to the road again to get a cab. It was past 7 already.
The clouds chose that moment to rumble and it started raining,no cab was in sight and the rain was heavy.

Having no choice, I started walking myself home,at least I have another option apart from any vehicle.

I was dripping wet by the time I reached my residence and was shivering from cold,at some moment, I took off my shoes and walked bare footed,life is really amazing for me right?

I pushed my front door open and switched the light in the living room.

My heart nearly jump out of my ribcage when my eyes landed on a person dressed in black sitting in my living room.

"What the hell are you doing here"
I demanded,my fatigue nearly forgotten.

"You're dripping,did you dance in the rain"
He ignored my question.

"Salman,kindly leave.... my house please, I don't ....want your drama"

My teeth started clashing and I started shivering again.

"Go and take a very hot bath, I have something important to discuss with you,and we can't talk when you're sick"
He said as he picked his phone from the table.

I rolled my eyes and walked to my bedroom to take a hot bath,if not, I would have a very bad cold,my body and rain don't get along.

After taking my bath, I dressed in a heavy cardigan and a thick cotton trouser. I wore a head warmer and a thick socks before I went back to the living room,hopefully he has left.

Salman walked out of my kitchen holding a steaming mug,he handed it to me without saying anything and took his previous seat.

"It'll help with the cold"
He muttered

"Do you care?"
I asked out annoyance. What's he still doing in my house?

He gave me a puzzled look
"Of course not,you can throw it if you want"
He replied rudely.

"You've gotten nicer you know"
I told him taking a sip from the mug he gave me. My eyes closed on their own when the taste of the tea hit my tongue. I could say it was the best tea I've had in a very long time and it instantly warmed me up.

"Nicer?"
He asked

"Hmm?...ohh that was sarcastic,you know"

He shook his head and sat cross legged. His right hand was smoothening his black beards..he looked like he was taken straight from a magazine.

"Like what you see?"
His deep voice nearly made me choke.

"What!...no... I was just...staring behind you .. I was wondering if I could put a painting on the wall...looks too plain"

Stupid stupid..how could I be caught staring? Gosh that's so embarrassing...he's not even that handsome.

Liar

"I have a proposition for you"
He started and I internally thanked him from saving me from my thoughts.

After hesitating for a while he sighed deeply and focus all his attention on me. I also dropped my mug and concentrated.

"You're going to marry me"
He stated

I looked up at him startled.

He's joking right?

Ladies!
I'm sorry for the short chap and you'll get update soon...
See ya all
