In this bustling city, the only calm thing I can see right now is her face. After I successfully make her blush for like umpteenth time, she is all quiet & scared if she says something, I will pull another stunt like the previous one. I smiled inwardly looking at her. I heard a voice and looked at her, she looked embarrassed, her stomach growling and I realised, she didn't have anything, I even noticed that she don't like to have breakfast and it's already 4 & she didn't even say that she is hungry. How can I be so stupid? I felt hurt that she didn't once tell me that she was hungry.

I pulled over at some restaurant and I got out of the car. She was looking at me confused, I reached for her door and opened it
"What are we doing here?" She asked coming outside of the car
"You need to eat something," I said
"No, I want to go home take me home " she is so stubborn
"Bambina, let's go & eat, you haven't had lunch yet " I reasoned
"No I wanna go home, I'm not hungry " she argued
"Ana, don't make me force...." before I completed my sentence she started laughing, her laugh was not funny. I looked at her trying to understand why she was laughing like that. She sobered up and continued
"What Ahaan, are you gonna force me to eat ?" She asked I didn't answer her question
"When I used to eat, I used to love food, you used to hate me for that, you used to say words like, "How much you gonna eat" you used to be disgusted by my love for food, do you remember how much I used to love food and you, you never fail to remind me how fat I am, how I should eat less, you're always disgusted by me. After these words from you, they forced me to become anorexic I still struggle to eat what I want. But why do you care? All of sudden Why are you acting all caring and shit . "  angry Tears are threatening to fall from her eyes.
The instant regret & guilt I felt is so strong compared to no other feeling that I've ever experienced. I realised how much she has to say that she is been hiding from everyone and now all her emotions have been combusting.
We are outside of the small cafe where normally no one comes. So only Ana and I only one were there.
I looked at her but didn't say anything, I knew she needed time to calm down, it was all my fault that I made her feel like this & now she was starving herself to death. I can't see her like this if I made this mistake then I will only make it correct. I looked at her, she was crying, seeing her cry like this made my heart clench. I hate seeing her cry like this and the worst part is that I'm the reason behind her tears.
Because of crying, her energy drained and she was about to faint, with quick reflexes, I caught her.

"Ana, I'm sorry Ana, please wake up, you need to eat " I tapped on her cheeks, and she moved a little "I wanna go home " she murmured "Yes my bambina, we will go home, first you need to eat " I tried to wake her up

"Ana, I'm sorry Ana, please wake up, you need to eat " I tapped on her cheeks, and she moved a little
"I wanna go home " she murmured
"Yes my bambina, we will go home, first you need to eat " I tried to wake her up. She nodded a little unconscious.
I took her to that small cafe, the cafe was empty, as we entered, a bell rang and a man in his 50s came out. He looked at me and then at Ana, I pulled Ana closer, her face buried in my chest so the man couldn't see her face
"How can I help you sir " he said while glancing at Ana
"My wife fainted because of the heat, can you please bring water," I said trying to wake Ana
He heard the word "wife " and he smiled at us and said " Yes sir, this heat is taking a toll on everyone, don't worry I'll bring cold water for your wife sir " at which I nodded
We both took seats on the side table and after drinking water, Ana got a little better but she didn't say anything. She is so quiet, that I started feeling like I'm sitting alone. After a few minutes, the man came with the menu and I ordered food as I knew what's Ana going to order. He wrote the order and went away to prepare the food
