Imposter for hire

Part 35.

Anika decides to go with the flow....she decided to continue playing Romeo and Juliet with Shivaay....even though knowing the bitter truth that he loved Bani and not her....but she consoled herself that it's not everyday where you have to be a "girlfriend" to your celebrity crush..... opportunities like this comes once in a lifetime....you can't let go like that.

"What's taking him so long...I mean it takes only 15 minutes to get ready....whereas he has taken nearly half an hour....moreover am getting hungry.....I get it....he wants to get out of preparing breakfast...by making me do it.....well two can play this game....but first thing first...I have to find out what's going on?" Anika said to herself.

She left to the master bedroom.

She knocked at the door.... unfortunately he didn't respond...but still didn't give up and was about to knock...when unexpectedly he opened the door.

Anika was smitten by him.....he was still  half naked...( He was only wearing jeans)....exposing his physique...his 6 pack abs and his chest...not to mention his biceps and triceps.

For quite sometime he was speaking to her...but she wasn't uttering a single word... Shivaay snapped his fingers bringing her back to reality.

"Huh??" Anika asked confused.

"Where...why you lost at?" Shivaay asked.

"Duh...you obviously," Anika blundered.

"What?" Shivaay asked confused.

" I mean to say...why were you taking so long to dress up...were you escaping preparing breakfast...that's why you were delaying to come out...in order for me to do it?" Anika asked diverting the topic.

"No it's not like that....usually before I take a bath...I do some weight lifting...to keep fit....you should join me once a while...am sure you'll enjoy it....( Anika: If it takes seeing you in this condition...then most definitely count me in... whispering)....huh??" Shivaay asked.

"It's nothing go on," Anika replied.

"Umm....I forgot whatever I wanted to say.... anyways you carry on... I'll be there in a sec to prepare breakfast," Shivaay replied... closing the door.

"He comes on getting hotter every single day," Anika thought leaving.

Later on.
Shivaay made breakfast for the both of them.

They ate and finished.

"See you later...am leaving," Shivaay said.

"Where to?" Anika asked curiously.

"Well to the supermarket....I was thinking...as we are staying him for God knows when...I should buy some supplies...like food... toiletries...etc....so goodbye," Shivaay explained.

"May I go with you," Anika requested.

"Umm....as much as I love to...but I can't," Shivaay replied.

"Why??" Anika asked confused.

"Well actually we are new in this city....not to mention country.....what if something bad happens to you....I won't be able to forgive myself...so you should stay here....where it's completely safe and sound," Shivaay replied.

"You don't need to worry...all my life...I fought goons and punks...so am sure they will be a piece of cake," Anika replied.

"Huh..what do you mean exactly?" Shivaay asked.

"What I mean to say is...I recently joined a self defense class back in Mumbai.....so am sure I can definitely take care of myself," Anika explained.

"But still you are my responsibility Bani....I have to take care of you....so my decision is final...you'll stay I'll go," Shivaay replied.

"Fine...only on one condition," Anika blackmailed.

"Which is?" Shivaay asked.

"You'll have to buy ice cream...but not any ice cream... vanilla chocolate,"Anika replied.

"Are you crazy or what?" Shivaay asked.

"What tell me I don't understand?" Anika asked confused.

"It's because you are lactose intolerant....you can't take ice cream....or have you forgotten what happened in pre-school,"Shivaay explained.

"Ooh right....my mind must have slipped....but that happened ages ago...besides am sure....I can handle ice cream right now.... come on Shivaay....am really craving for it....and I promise I won't eat too much that I cannot handle,"Anika persuaded with her puppy dog eyes.

"Alright fine...I'll buy you some..now stop making that face," Shivaay replied.

"I'll stop...hurray!!" Anika cheered.

"If you excuse me I'll take my leave," Shivaay requested.

"Hold on Shivaay," Anika said.

"Yeah...do you need anything else?" Shivaay asked.

"No...just take care of yourself," Anika replied concerned.

Shivaay moved closer to her.

"You no need to worry....I will...also you should do the same...close all the windows and doors....and if something comes up...there is security here at your beck and call...just tell them alright?" Shivaay replied.

Anika nodded in agreement.....when she  was still lost...he kissed her on the cheeks and left taking his jacket from the hanger....she was still distracted by his gesture...then he closed the door behind him...is when she came back to her senses.

"Did he just kiss me or was it by imagination...or perhaps my dream?" Anika asked herself.

She pinched herself and found it be true.

"OMG...I just got to be kissed by my crush...how luck am I? Anika said to herself enthusiastically....then squealing in excitement.
