Chapter-4

AUTHOR'S POV

" That's it for today! Please read on Food microbiology for tomorrow's class. We'll have a detailed discussion on bacteria and fungi" Mrs. Indu, concluded the class.

" Finally!!!" Rain groaned so dramatically that half of the class turned towards her.

Rose giggled at her goofy face.

" It was boring Ro!!" Rain made a boring face, and Rose agreed.

" I need a break...." Rain faked a cry.

Rose squinted her eyes at Rain and nodded.

" Anyways we are done for the day! Let's go to our favourite place...." Rose suggested, Rain immediately nodded.

She just wanted to escape from the class, that's it.

Packing their bags, both the girls made their way to their favourite place.

" Where is Zayaan?" Rose asked, closing the car door.

" He went to his aunt's place...! Oh, I forgot! He asked me to inform you!" Rain grinned her teeth. Rose nodded simply.

After a twenty-minute ride, the car came to a halt in front of a cafe.

Vintage Cafe... The name board was beautifully decorated with neon lights.

Both Rose and Rain are coffee lovers. When they talked for the first time, Rain invited Rose to this cafe. And ever since then, it has become their favourite spot. Almost every day after class, they visit this cafe and then go home. It has become a routine now. Spending time in this cafe.

They are so familiar that the boss of this cafe is very friendly with them.

After keeping their bags on the corner table,

" You order...! I've to pee...!" Rain showed her teeth, grinning at Rose who waved her hands, dismissing her.

It was their favourite spot to sit. There is a window beside the table which gives them the perfect view of the small rose garden. The cafe owner likes Roses, and so does Rose.

Rose made her way towards the counter. There was a queue...not a long one, two to three people in front of her.

It wasn't something new. Sometimes the queue will be very long. This cafe is the best in the town. So the queue and the crowd are understandable. But the timings matter. Usually, they come here during odd hours, so it'll always be free. Just like now. They're here at 2 in the noon.

Pushing her phone inside her jeans pocket, she lifted her eyes to see the queue. There was only one person in front of her.

He was tall, broad and well-dressed in black. She could smell the strong masculine perfume. His long black hair was silky, tied in a neat ponytail. She felt so short standing behind this tall man.

After taking his order, he went out without looking here and there. When Rose took a step, she felt something underneath her foot. It was a card, a platinum card. Picking it up, she quickly ordered her usual coffee and ran behind the tall man.

She didn't even see his face...! But she quickly identified him as soon as her eyes fell on his silky hair. He was walking towards the Black Benz.

" Oye!" she called, not knowing what else to say.
