It's Not Finished Yet

Chapter 37

Just when I was getting into action, it ended. I wish he could stay more.

I sighed while collecting my belongings as he came outside.

"I'll be back in 2 mins."

I nodded without noticing much, except the fact that he took something before going back in the washroom. I wore my shirt and followed him inside as the door was unlocked.

'Wow here's a bathtub too? I didn't notice before.'

"Are you okay?" His words brought me back to the world as he washed the towel in the sink.

"Yeah I'm fine."

"Then? What's on your mind?"

"I'm just thinking..... nothing exciting really happened......" I sighed and walked outside.

These novels are so exaggerated.
Full of hyperboles.

I didn't feel any knot in my stomach nor anything fuzzy. Neither any stars appeared in daylight nor I'm teleported to the 7th cloud. Heck I'm not even feeling anything.
Where is that fire which ignites as the lips meet?
Yeah my body feels warmer and his kisses did make my toes curl.
But I'm just numb from inside.
More like I'm calm.
And chill.

Or maybe I'm still processing everything?

Or maybe this warmness I'm feeling and the desire to not let him go is the fire they were talking about?
But where's the rush? The urgency?
I'm not rushing anything lol.
I'm still shy in fact.

Or maybe I'm just very good at self control.

God knows what's happening with me.

Roaming around in the room, I looked at my reflection in the mirror while standing with crossed arms on the chest.

This is my complete other side that I was witnessing for the first time.
I just had my lingerie and a shirt on with hair sprawled all over my shoulders. It was sexy and that's what saddened me more.

I have to wrap up this sexy side of mine.

As we freshened up and got dressed, he noticed my mood and asked several times, 'what happened'.

"Arey I'm seriously fine. My brain's just numb right now, that's all." I fixed my clothes, sitting on the bed's edge.

Half truth.
I'm sad because you can't stay more and I want to kiss you till the morning comes.
But I don't have the the guts to tell you this.

He sat beside me at the edge of the bed, snaking his arm around my waist. I placed my head on his shoulder with a sigh, snuggling in his neck. As I looked up in his eyes at last, he whispered, "kya hua?" (What happened?)

My eyes took in all of his facial features, stopping at his brown orbs. I tried to gather my voice to finally mutter 'can you stay a little bit longer?' but he shushed back the voice down my throat with an unexpected soft-lingering kiss.

Pulling back in just a matter of seconds, he left me craving for more.
Only if I could pull him in.
Why am I still so hesitant even after everything happened between us?

"Chalen?" (Shall we?) He smiled at me and I just nodded in return with a hint of a smile, unable to mutter out the suppressed words.

While collecting our things he tried to initiate a conversation but I just smiled in return.

"Actually it was our first time, and also got just one hour. I think next time would be a lot better." He tried to answer questions running in my mind and successfully did some too.
