"So tell me Miss Arushi will you make me your boyfriend?" I was surprised by my own words. I have no idea from where I have learnt to express my feelings so well but maybe that's how much powerful my love for her is. If she feels insecure, I will make sure she knows that there is no one in this world who could compare to her.
My plans were anything but to accept my feelings, but last day I realised that she was already in love with me and the damage is already done. Moreover, I cannot see her with anyone else. Just even seeing her being close to some other man makes my blood boil. I waited for her reply, even though I knew she loves me but still, she might not want to date me considering that she is still my student.
However gladly that never happens as she slowly nods her head. "I will. I love you." I wrapped my arms around her waist at her reply and she hugged me back, my lips tugged up a little curling into a smile and she looked at me with surprise. "You smiled. I have seen you smile for the first time."
She stated pointing at my lips. Another rule broken successfully. This was a silent rule. A rule that I have always followed unconsciously. Today I broke that rule too. She was right, I have always heard my brothers, colleagues and others complaining that why I don't smile and I think it only makes sense that why I did so now. Because after my mother passed away no one made me feel like this until Arushi came into my life.
I pulled apart from the hug and cupped her cheeks, "I know it is absurd but we have to keep this thing as a secret for a time being. You're still my student and until you graduate I don't want anyone to know about our relationship, for your own reputation."
That wasn't a lie but that wasn't the complete truth either. I also wanted to keep it a secret because if it gets disclosed right now, she is still unaware of my past. I wasn't really bothered about the rules and restrictions of the college. But I was surely bothered about how she might react when she gets to know about my true identity. However that time has not come yet, when the time comes I'll tell her everything and till then I am her professor and boyfriend.
She nodded a little shyly, her cheeks turning the shade of pink, on her dusky brown skin tone, her natural blush made her glow like rose gold. That was also a reason why I called her little rose, I could tell her the name but I had already called her by that name once when she encountered me as her stalker, I fear she would remember the name.
