Sonakshi's eyes opened the next morning and she stretched, surprised that her alarm hadn't rung yet. She sat up and looked at the clock across the room. She squinted her eyes and then opened them widely. It was eight, she had slept over two hours. She jumped out of her bed and ran into the shower.
When she ran into the kitchen wrapped in her bathrobe, her hair wet and tied in an untidy bun at her nape, she stopped looking at the single yellow rose on the counter. She picked it up, knowing that it was picked from the solarium. She smiled knowing this was Dev doing, who else could? She placed the flower down and picked up the small white card. See me in the backyard. -Dev
She picked up the flower and went to the backyard. Under the sun deck she saw the glass table covered with a white lace table cloth. In the center were more roses, of each color but black. Around the flower vase she saw breakfast. She looked around, her eyes squinting due to the sun light. It was a nice cool August morning, but the sun was still blinding her. When she finished looking around the entire place she sighed. Where was he?
"Good morning." He whispered in her ear. Startled she turned around and looked at him confused. "Good morning." She still sounded confused, but patient. "I'm sorry I didn't wake up on time today." Her voice was low like always but there was a hint of surprise and delight that he'd never heard before.
"Absolutely not." He took her hand and escorted her to the table. When she sat down he turned the plate over for her.
"Eggs or pancakes?" He asked standing beside her still.
"Excuse me?" She looked up at him. Now that she could see properly with his back blocking the sun, she couldn't deny he looked absolutely handsome. His brown eyes looked tawny as a cats at the moment and his hair were wet making him look sexier than ever before. So he'd just had his bath, she concluded. For the first time she saw him dressed in sweats and a tight t-shirt with the words, Baja California across the chest in orange letters on top of the brown shirt, on a work day morning. Then she looked back at the table.
Charming, she thought instantly.
"So you can cook?" She finally asked.
"A little. Good or not you can decide." She looked back at him and found him smiling.
"I turned your alarm off after you went to sleep last night. You also need some rest. It's ok if I cook breakfast once and you sleep for an extra few hours. Do you like the flowers?"She looked at them, smiled. It looked like a rainbow of flowers. "I love them," she quietly answered.
"Good. Now, would you like eggs or pancakes?" He pulled out the chair beside her and sat down. "You also have an option between juice, coffee, and tea."
"Eggs will do fine, thank you." She was still confused why he was doing what he was.
"Are you okay?" She finally asked, absently resting her hand on his wrist.
"You've never cooked."
He shrugged as he served her the eggs that were still warm. "I think you need a break from all this for a day. You want juice with eggs, right?" She took her hand back and picked up the knife and fork.
"Yes." She nodded, surprised he knew.
"Dev, I'll serve myself." She took his hand again, dropping the utensils. "You need to get ready for office, you have a follow-up report you'll need to go over with Shanaya today. I'll take care of my breakfast."
"No." He held her hand back and surprised her by kissing it. "I meant it when I said I wasn't going to the office today."
"Dev the report-"
