Mute love

Gentleman

Aditya pov
On the way to my home I needed to visit a client just to receive a file. But he asked me to come to a bar, that's kinda weird but it was a matter of minutes so I agreed.

The time I exited the bar with a file in my hand I sighed, finally after a hectic day now I can go back to my house.
I unlocked the door of my car and slipped inside. I was about to start the engine but something caught my eyes. I saw a girl in my side mirror, and a guy was with her.I felt weird, keeping the file inside. I decided to check once. I went towards their direction, the guy was misbehaving with the girl.
At first when I saw them through the mirror I thought he might be her boyfriend but now it doesn't seem like that, he was pressing her on the wall while she was struggling.
It didn't take me a minute to approach him and punch him.
But my breath hitched when I turned my head towards the girl. It's the same girl Anshika!! What was she doing here?? She was finding a job, she doesn't have enough money to waste her time in drinking and partying. She doesn't seem that type of person. And the second question was who was this guy.
Her teary eyes met my cold one, I don't know why but I felt something weird, really weird but why?
Her trembling lips, red nose and cheeks  covered in tears, the movement in her throat, she can't speak but her state is screaming loudly for mercy. Asking for help.
" What the fuck dude!! " The cursing guy dragged my attention towards him. He was fixing his clothes after getting up from the ground.
" Mind explaining what you just did?? " I rolled my eyes at his stupid question, I don't know where shitty people like him bring that attitude from.
" I just punched a bastard who was trying to molest a girl!! " I replied coldly.
He scoffed " That's none of your business Mr., you can't just hit any random person like this "
" And you can't just make any random girl tear up like this!! " My tone was hard like an iron rod. .

" Listen!! " He pointed his finger at me before heaving a sigh " Just .stay .out.of.it. " He pressed every single word with unnecessary force.
That shitty attitude again.
" Can you accept the fact that you are disturbing my work?? " He said, gesturing towards the lady, my eyes followed his hand until my eyes met the sight that she was just looking at the floor. Obviously she was disgusted by his addressing her as a work.
" And can you accept the fact that I can put you in the ICU right now?? " I said without removing my eyes from her.
I didn't look at the guy but I felt him coming towards me, he was about to punch me when I grabbed his hand and kicked him in his stomach.
He crashed on the ground with a thud, but I am hundred percent sure that alcohol in his stomach is the only thing which is stopping him from giving up, he stood up again but this time I attacked first, I punched his face several times before pushing him to the same wall where he was pinning Aanshika.
He hurted his head there I guess, because he was holding his head. I don't fuckin care, the only thing matters is he doesn't have energy left to fight anymore.

I looked at her, I really didn't want to make her uncomfortable by asking any questions, she was still looking at the floor rubbing her one hand on her other arm. She seems uncomfortable.
I removed my jacket before putting it around her shoulders.

I flinched a little when I felt something on my shoulder, and when I tilted my head up, he was so close to me , no, it's not close, he is dangerously close. Our eyes met,that eye contact , it was enough to put fire in my stomach, but why??
Suddenly I felt warm, and when he stepped back I realised I had a coat around my shoulder.
" It's cold!! " He said softly, so softly, so melodiously I almost melted without any heat.

I really don't know what to do right now . I don't want to go inside cause I know Yash will surely make an issue of this topic.
" I will drop you home!! " His statement made me look at him. I am feeling nervous but it's better than feeling uncomfortable and unsafe, I nodded my head lightly.
" Come!! " He said before walking away and I followed him like a lost puppy.
He unlocked his car, and I didn't expected that from him but first he pulled door of passenger seat for me. I looked at him before sitting in, but he wasn't looking at me, he was avoiding any eye contact with me. Considerable.

When I sat inside the car, something grabbed my attention. I saw his daughter sleeping on the back seat.
Again, I again felt something after looking at her. Her body really seemed uncomfortable, and her face was indicating that she was exhausted.
He hired me for her, but he said I will have to stay in his cabin. That's really awful, that why he brings his daughter to the office or maybe everywhere he goes. Is her mom out of station?
I was lost deep down in my thoughts that I didn't realise he sat inside.
" Put the seat belt on!! " His words bring me back to reality. I put on the belt.
" Your address?? " He asked.
I opened my phone and told him the location. The ride was silent, none of us said anything. I was looking at his daughter whole time, meanwhile he was focused on the road. I am glad he didn't ask me any questions, it might have become awkward for me.
One thing I surely understood that he is a gentleman, his wife is really lucky, his daughter too. I wish Yash was like him, I would have fallen in love with him. Then life would have been easy for me, the love would have been easy for me, beautiful too.

In the morning I received a text from him " I am off today, so you have to come to my home instead of the office. "

My first day of job as a babysitter!!
So right now I am standing outside his house, it's not deserve to be called a house, it's a mansion. Seriously , I have never seen such a lavish house ever in my life.
I was walking towards the main door. It's hard for me to resist the urge of admiring the beauty of the garden and fountain, but that's not what I am here for.
The door was open, completely wide open , I tried to scan the house from inside but there was no one.
I tighten the grip on the bag hanging on my shoulder. Taking a deep breath I stepped inside.
Why is there no one present here?? I am feeling really nervous, I hope I am on the correct address. I was walking further when my phone snoozed.
I stopped and took it out from my bag to check and as soon as I opened the text, fear rushed inside me " Why did you leave last night without telling me?? And how did you reach home alone"
That was from Yash, I don't know how to reply to this text.
                            I can't tell him that I left with a stranger and the reason was his friend. I wish I could.
I wish I had a partner with whom I could share everything. Like who misbehaved with me, who hurted me. But my partner was the only person who hurts me.

I wish Yash was the partner I wanted, a good hearted person, if he was ,yesterday I would have ran to him and hugged him tightly, I would have cried in his embrace. But I think I am not lucky enough for that.
I was engrossed in my imagination when something bumped onto me.
I couldn't even process what happened, in no second I was on the floor with shut eyes.
I heard the voice of thud when my phone was on the ground.
My breathing becomes uneven. I felt something heavy on my body,
I slowly opened my eyes with fear, and when my eyes opened they met a pair of cold eyes which were piercing in my soul through my eyes.
Yes, it was again something unexpected, it was him again, it was Aditya!!  But the difference is he was on the top of me, directly looking at my eyes. I felt his one hand was under my head and I was too flustered to notice where the second one was.
My heart started thumping against my ribs. Our faces were inches apart. Our lips can meet anytime soon, our breath mixed and this tension was too much for me to handle.

I was walking towards the couch while scanning a file in my hands , I was too busy to notice anything around me, suddenly something came in between my step and my foot stumbled. That was the first confusion for me, the second was when I bumped on someone, specifically a female. I couldn't process anything and we fell on the floor. My hand automatically went under her head and I was on the top of her.
First few seconds I look at her face, shut eyes, fear on her face. My eyes travelled from her eyes to her nose, small bridge and tiny tip like a button, then my eyes fell to her lips, the dark pink shade, heart shaped, and by the time my eyes again went to eyes she opened them.
I noticed movement in her throat as she gulped. Her chest started huffing up and down due to nervousness.
