The Runaways Love

PART 7

Naina's POV

"huh! That Jerk came back again... I was so happy to have finally got rid of him but NO! God can't see me happy... First my family and now this..! " I kept on tossing left and right on my bunk I could not sleep as the bunk was small as well as hard! God I feel like tearing my hairs and scream in frustration!
I sat up with my legs crossed in the middle of berth and I know my hairs are all messed up and right now I am looking like a runaway from mental hospital..
I heard some sound and saw a huge figure entering from the curtains which separated the Compartment from the aisle. My eyes popped out and was scared as I had heard about incidents of people being robbed, killed, raped and what not in the trains and I murmered "wh... Who... A.. Are.. Y.. You.." I tried keeping that confidence in my voice but failed miserably.. There was no answer and now I was scared like hell and opened my mouth to shout at the top of my voice but soon my mouth was covered with a large palm and my eyes opened more with shock now I was struggling when that person said.. "shhs! Shhssh! It's me! Don't shout" and then I realized it was that Jerk Manav! He left my mouth and I gave him a angry glare and now screamed at him "what the hell is wrong with you! Are you nuts! Why the hell are you roaming around like a Ghost!!"
"Oh hello I went to the washroom and now tell I need to ask permission for that too! Anyways I didn't know you are such a chick to get scared so easily " he said the last part with a smirk
Now It was my turn to be embarrassed and my cheeks suddenly started turning scarlet fortunately it was dark so he won't be able to see it but still putting on a brave facade I said" who told you I was scared! I knew it was you and hence to tease you i pretended to be scared... Haan... Yeah... To tease you I pretended to be scared " I said this with a confident smile. Well seeing his face I got to know he didn't buy it as it was the lamest reason one could give
" acha so to tease me you pretended to be sacred " he said with a smirk and this clearly means he is upto something..
He started coming closer to me while kept moving my back downwards, we both were looking in each other's eyes and I saw him raising his hand and bringing it close to my face... He brushed fingers on my forehead and brought it down till my cheeks and moved his head towards my ears and my heartbeat started to increase and then he slowly whispered " I didn't know you are such a great actor that while acting you got sweat beads all over your face" I was annoyed by his statement and pushed him hard he fell back laughing like hell while I just gave him a angry glare and wiped off my sweat from my face and neck.
"whatever! " I said and pushed him off my berth and pulled the blanket over my face and went off to sleep.

Manav's POV

She said she wanted to tease me and hence pretended to be scared... Hahaha.. She was sweating like hell inspite of the cool breeze which showed she was scared to death... I leaned towards her and she went on moving backward but couldn't move more as she was sitting and going more down would cause her to break her back bone.. I was looking in her eyes and so was she... I felt different as if we were connected to each other.. Some invisible strings were tying us together.. Is this what people call love? Huh... What shit.. There is nothing called love I hate that four letter word. I moved my head towards her ears and she smelled sweet strawberry I inhaled that sweet scent and craved for more but controlling myself I slowly whispered in her ears "I didn't know you are such a great actor that while acting you got sweat beads all over your face" and she was damn annoyed with me that I was almost kicked out off her berth. She pulled the blanket over her face and lied down while I just stared at the figure covered with blanket and moved to my berth and soon sleep took over me.

I slowly opened my eyes due to light coming from the window and could hear a lot of hustle bustle around... This is why i don't like traveling in trains it's so noisy and there is no peace. I looked down from my berth and found her missing.. the though that she left me scared me a lot. I sat up with a Jerk and looked left and right the aisle and then I saw her coming from the other side rubbing her face with the towel and unknowingly I let out a sigh of relief.
I got down from my berth and went towards the wash basin area to freshen up and came back to see her already having her coffee. The ingredients for making the coffee were kept and I too stared to make mine but the train suddenly Jerked and the whole hot water fell down on my hand... God it pained like hell or should I say burned like hell! She immediately stood up and took my hands and started blowing on it tension and fear was clear on her face... She took the towel and wiped my hand which had turned red by then she started looking for something in her bag and took out a burnol cream and applied on the affected area...
"is it fine now? " he asked a bit worriedly
" huh yes.. " I replied
" can't you be careful! If you don't know how to make a coffee then why do u even try! " she said with teasing me.
" Oh hello who said I can't make a coffee... I cook really well infact.. It's just that the train stopped suddenly and the water tripped " I said in a equally angry tone
" huh... Excuses " she taunted me
" listen you... " and before I could say something her phone rang and there was a smile on her face... She took it and went outside to talk.
For the first time I saw someone caring and actually worried for me and somewhere even I was liking it... But wait... Who called and her and why did she have to go away and talk to that person! Why couldn't she talk in front of me! All these thoughts clouded over my mind and soon I realized I as behaving like a possessive jealous lover and mentally slapped myself for behaving like that and looked out at the green scenery outside the window.
