She jumped up from her bed and advanced towards the door. Initially, she thought Aryan and Sanaya were back but her eyes literally popped out watching Randhir standing outside her room with two steamy mugs of coffee in his hands. He was definitely a coffee person. Sanyukta chuckled internally and he gave his ever so charming smile as if he was able to read her thoughts again. Sanyukta tried to look puzzled but ended up smiling in return to the look with which he gazed her..

"I thought to get ourselves some coffee. I was right indeed. You weren't sleeping.." He half smirked leaning against the door frame and Sanyukta huffed a sigh.

"Now I definitely see some serious improvements in your health... Mr. Randhir Singh Shekhawat has turned into a clairvoyant! Wow!" She remarked sarcastically before moving back a bit in order to allow him an entrance. He walked inside her room in an unmannerly style while she hid a blush while closing the door. Their encounter hours back was still fresh in her memory and the memory itself had the capability to weaken her down in her knees any moment and Hola! The devil responsible for that was himself allowed inside by her in her room, precisely in the mid night. What else could she do rather than flush flush and flush! She found it hard to make an eye contact with him. For heavens' sake  she was probably freaking with the idea of facing him again next morning. Hell, she must have had resonated a tomato then! She shifted a bit uncomfortably on her bed when he sat on the bin bag, right in front of her.

"Here..." He forwarded her a cup and took a sip from his one.

"So.. What were you thinking about?" She almost choked on her sip when he voiced that out. What was she thinking about?! Oh well. She was thinking  about tricking him. About the drugs. About his past. About their kiss. About his unusual behavior. In a nutshell, totally about him! Now, she wasn't that honest to confess those, was she? That would be the stupidest thing she'd be doing that year. Oh, but the stupidest thing done by her that year was supposed to be a sudden absurd abduction of the only heir of Shekhawat Empires by her. Wait?! She didn't practically abduct him, did she? He is heartily living in her house from the past several months and is neither hinting on a departure any sooner. But she'd completely madden up if he ever left that apartment of hers, she then reminisced. Okay. But that's a long way to go. What was she supposed to answer to his question right then?

"Uhm..Ahh.. I was just thinking about things..." She swayed her hand in an unsure gesture while he simply pulled his brows up at her in a questioning gaze.

"Things... Would you mind if I hear?" He exclaimed taking another sip and eyeing her with a smug face.
Oh yes I will mind! She heard her inner self snap at him.
She was frazzled.

"Um.. I was... You know.. I just..." She gnawed her lower lip between her teeth and gave him an absurd expression. She saw him tightening up his jaws a bit and his gaze was intensely stuck on her lips. She moved a bit feeling higly conscious under his stare when he broke out of his reverie.

"Don't.. I mean.. Don't do that... They're already bloody red..." Randhir stuttered, uneasily keeping his mug aside and looked away for a moment before matching their gaze again. Sanyukta's cheeks attained a sudden warmth at his acknowledgement. She sipped her coffee and hummed inaudibly while Randhir looked everywhere but her. Pretty unusual was the situation. Hours ago, they were almost making our ravishingly in the hall, leaving aside all their inhibitions and restrictions but at that moment, they felt nothing but absurd, just looking into each others eyes. After a momentary awkward silence, Sanyukta thought to break the ice. Or rather, her brain just forced her to spill the beans without creating anymore suspense wall between them. They already had a lot to know about each other and with the things going on then, between them, could have  never helped them to get to know each other better. Basically she wanted to know more about his past as she was having zero assumptions on what he felt for her. She wouldn't have had got another golden opportunity like that once Sanaya and Aryan returned after their stay.
