Change of heart ❤ (#writingchallenge)

Respect

I was very tired after a hectic day at office. I came home. Mom and dad are out for 3 days. They've gone to Pune. I'm alone at home. I quickly freshened up. Got down to have dinner. After eating I directly headed towards my room.  I bounced on the bed and I didn't know when my eyes gave up. 

"Ting tong!!! Ting tong!" my sleep was getting disturbed I woke up. I was sure that it was not morning yet. "Ting tong". It was the door bell. I looked towards the clock. It was 11:30. I got down the bed, took a vase from my room and headed downstairs. I reached the door. My hands were shaking, I opened the door and was about to hit the person. When he held my hand. The touch was very familiar. I opened my eyes only to find ....Randhir?.

"I'm not a thief." he said. He was still holding my hand. "I know that randhir" I said. He looked up. "Sanyukta! Oh thank god! it's you".Then I noticed something,his head was bleeding. "OH MY GOD! Randhir come inside. What happened to your head?". Meanwhile I brought him inside and made him sit on the sofa. I ran to the drawer and brought a first aid kit. 

"Will you tell me how it happened?" I said very sternly as he was just staring at me with a amused expression on his face. He was still staring.I dipped the cotton with dettol and started to clean his wound. "Ahh!" He winced. "i'm really sorry" I said and started to blow air on his wound. I cleaned the blood, put some ointment and put a bandage over it.  

" Is it paining?Now will you tell me what happened? How did you get this hurt?stop smiling and tell me!" I was really shocked to find him here at my place at this hour of time,that too with a wounded head. He put his finger on my lips to stop me from speaking. We both were staring deep into each others eyes. After sometime, the eye lock was broken by randhir, obviously. Why would I do that?

"You talk a lot. I'm fine. It's not paining. There was some work at office so I had to wait. After that, I was going home when my car stopped. I checked for the problem and set that right also, as I was about to leave I saw three boys teasing one girl, who was alone. First I told them very politely they didn't listen, so I taught them a lesson in my way. I left till her house and when I came back those boys hit me on my head with a rod. Then, when I turned to hit them again they ran away. I came here to get some cotton as I saw that the living room lights were still on. Now tell something?"

I signalled him to his hand and he removed it. "oh sorry" he said and bit his lower lip. He was supposed to look hot but I found him very cute at the moment. I totally forgot that he was my boss and I work for him. He answered all my questions like a five year old kid. It was like I was the boss.

"You are a gentlemen Randhir. You have not only saved her but you protected her dignity. She was some random girl but still you respected her. I feel proud to work for such a selfless person" I smiled. These days people have forgotten their values. They have become even more mechanical. They don't even care for their family members. Caring for random people is way too far. People are selfish. But, the man before me is the generous.

He smiled back. "So, friends?" He said. My heart fluttered. I'm back to my drool-randhir-till-you-get-embarrased mode. "Sanyukta?" "Yeah yeah!! Sure. I would love to be your friend" why do we always act wierd before our crushes? Only God knows.

He forwarded his hand and we both shaked hands.

"Sanyukta, I should go now" he said we walked towards the door. He stopped near the door and turned around.

"Sanyukta, can I ask you something?"
"Yes?"
"You really thought that a thief will enter your house through the main door?" He said and started laughing. After staring at him for a while,
"They can come from anywhere. Now stop laughing and go bye,it's 12. Your family members maybe worried" I said.
"Thank you so much sanyukta and really sorry to disturb your sleep. Good night" he geniunely smiled and left.

I closed the door behind me. I totally forgot that I was feeling very sleepy, was walking upstairs to my room smiling like an idiot . Today, is the best day of my life. I'm happier than my b'day. The respect I had for him has totally  reached a new level. I reached my room and laid down on the bed and closed my eyes, only to see his face. That charming face. Our eyelock, his eyes, his smile and his laughter. He is god's best creation, atleast for me😉.
