Kia's POV:
We stopped walking and looked at each other. I feel like hitting him. We are standing alone with our luggage near our hause. In this dense jungle, we are alone, along with a few people who have come for adventure, honeymoon, or whatever. They escorted us into a big tree hause and let us rest for tonight. I might curse my father, but this is an amazing destination. It has streams, wildness, mountains, jungle and whatnot. The place is big yet cosy. I looked at that Monster and he is speaking to someone on his phone. He cut the call and looked at me.
" Hungry?" He asked and I just shrugged. I'm acting nonchalant, but the inner me knows how hungry I am.
" Wash up first!" He said throwing me a towel. The audacity of this Monster! I glared at him and marched inside. As soon as the hot water touched my body, I felt heaven. It's getting colder and colder. I stayed there, in the bathtub. Only God knows how much time it has been since I'm here. I grabbed the towel and looked for my clothes. Shit! Where are they?
"Siddhansh!" I called gently peeking through the door.
He walked to me and raised his eyebrow. I showed all my 32 teeth and gave him a nervous chuckle.
" My clothes please!" I mumbled looking down. I heard him sigh and went towards our suitcases. He got his clothes and a towel. Is he trying to prank me or something? Why are his clothes in his hand? Those should be mine, right?
"I'll freshen up. You can go into the room in the towel. Dress yourself. I'll close my eyes. You can come out in the towel." He said and immediately closed his eyes. I hate to admit but this Monster is a gentleman. I secured the towel around me and looked into his face to see any trace of his opened eyes but his dark lashes fully touched his cheekbones.
" Go inside!" I whispered and he went in closing his eyes.
I dressed myself in the thermals and wore a jacket to contain this cold. I saw that Siddhansh was also dressed in the thermals. Instead of the jacket, he just wore the gloves and shoes. I fit myself into the shoes and went to the dining area together.
We sat there and the environment surrounding us looked quiet and the fresh air punched us like a mint crusher. So refreshing.
He ordered Scallop, White Lump Crab Cake, and Hutterite Chicken with some Wild Mushroom Sauce. He looked at me like do I want some wine but we just passed. I asked him to choose something else but he said a straight no on my face.
" All the dishes sound so inorganic Siddhansh. " I complained.
" These are the most organic ones and edible for us Kia. I don't mind ordering the rest of the dishes which have bacon in them." He looked at me with his stoic face and I have to back down. He says that he did a little research before we come here and I think he really did.
We had a light dinner and with each passing second, the temperature kept dropping. I see that Siddhansh is doing everything hurriedly.
" Let's go on a walk," I suggested and he looked at me nodding affirmatively.
We walked into the premises of the resort and I loved how good this place is. Far better than Mumbai when one craves peace. I feel like one could lose themselves here. I sat on the rock and looked at the back of Siddhansh whose figure is shaking.
Is he crying?
I immediately walked to him and placed my hand on his shoulder. Still, there is no response.
" Siddhansh!" I called him slowly and he turned to me normally. I looked into his face and there are no traces of tears. He just smiled at me and asked what.
" Why were you trembling earlier?" I asked and he just shrugged. I looked at him carefully while he is busy observing the surroundings. His nose and ears are pink and I see the water vapour every time he breathed.
" Siddhansh, are you feeling cold?" I asked slowly and he just nodded no, smiling like every day.
I removed the gloves he made me wear earlier and held his hands which are colder than ice. And this man says that he is not feeling cold?
" Have you gone mad Siddhansh? You are freezing damn it. How can you lie to me? " I screamed and looked around for something to warm him up. How dumb of me? Is this our room or something that I find him whatever I want?
I hurriedly removed the muffler from my handbag and secured it around his neck. I'm panicking here and this guy is smiling at me.
" Why are you smiling like a pimp now?" I asked him angrily. Doesn't this guy have a voice? He could have straight away rejected me if he feels cold.
He laughed suddenly out of nowhere which kind of riled me up.
" Siddhansh, let's go." I said and held his ice-cold hands. I want to spank this guy for acting so immature.
I pushed him inside the room and turned the heater on handing him a thick duvet.
" Why are you so unwrought Siddhansh? You can say no." I asked glaring at him folding my hands against my chest.
He immediately stood up which had me take a few steps back. He looked at me with the softest smile and he looked totally opposite to the person I'd seen on the beach.
" Whe..ere do you think you are coming Siddhansh?" I asked wetting my lips. I believe Siddhansh is not the kind of person which my mind is imagining now.
He is not bad.
He is not bad-mannered.
He got some ethics.
He won't do anything to me.
This is all my mind is chanting until he pulled me by my waist. A shiver ran down my spine as soon as he touched me. My heartbeats escalated and I suddenly feel wrong. I want to push him and I was about to until I heard him.
" But you so WELLWROUGHT Dew Drop!" That's what he said kissing my forehead and leaving me alone.
And fuck! No one had ever left me speechless like this guy always does. I looked at Siddhansh and saw him grabbing some cookies from the table.
WELLWROUGHT.
I feel like tears might trickle down at any moment. I immediately rolled my eyes and blinked them several times and breathed enough to get myself normal. But I think this guy has an agenda to make me cry today. I suddenly felt his hands wrapped around my stomach and I heard his beautiful giggle.
" Tu wellwrought default hai ya kudh kiya apni parwarish? I don't know konsi hai un dono main se, but I love it." He left into the washroom. Just like that he left me showing me how well I've nurtured myself into. He stood opposite to me just like a mirror showing each of my quality. And, I'm liking me more now a days. I don't know why.
And I just realised that the one whom I called the UNWROUGHT is not an UNWROUGHT but a WELLWROUGHT.
With Love❤️
