The Day We Met

Chapter-2

"Wh-What are you d-doing here.This is a girls' washroom", I asked.
"That's not the answer to my question", he smirked.

That smirk.It made my legs go all jelly.

He slowly advanced towards me and all I could do was watch what his next step was going to be.

"I-I'll call t-the manager", I tried threatening him.
Damn, this stuttering.It only made him smirk more.

"Call",he said.

What?

"Call the manger",he spoke again. I gulped.

With each word he spoke, he was walking closer to me and all I did was trying to wiping the sweat beads off my forehead.

His extremely hot and irresistibly beautiful features were a treat for any girl to watch and the thought that he was going to be so close, in a few more moments turned my stomach into knots.

He reached me soon and I started taking backward steps until I reached the wall.He in no time reached me again and I was blocked between his hands which he rested on either side of me.

God, what did he want now?

"Manik, please", I whispered not able to take the proximity anymore.
I did'nt give any eye contact as I knew, If I give any eye contact, I would run out of words.

"What please, sunshine.I never knew you worked here?" He asked smirking more.

I was looking down while he studied my facial features as if they were some form of art.

"Tell me", he asked coming even closer.

God, what should I do now?

"Why didn't you come to our wing today?" He asked out of the blue.

"I was late to college and I had many last minute assignments to submit, that, it just slipped out of my mind",I chipped.

"So, you forgot me? You forgot The Manik Malhotra?" His voice suddenly turned cold.

God! Offending him was the last thing I ever wanted because, I clearly knew the consequences.

....

"God! What is taking Manik this long !" Mukti asked clearly frustrated.

"Relax Mukti, He went to washroom only, Humein kya patha whether it is ek yaa doh" ,they laughed.

"What about the new Album cabir?" Mukti queried.

"Yeah, we'll have to start working on it.By the way, yesterday's party?Did I do something stupid again?" Cabir said.

"Obviously. You sat on Dhruv's back and refused to get down saying that you were sitting on a tiger."

"Yeah yeah, only we knew that you were sitting on a buffalo", Alya chirped and they had a hearty laugh.

...

"Manik, Please, It's getting late.I'll lose this job",I tried to convince him.

"I don't care! How could you forget me!", he yelled.

I closed my eyes out of fright.Is he bipolar? One minute back he was all romantic and now suddenly, he was back to being the hulk he's always been.

"Sorry", I put my eyes down trying to hide my fear.

"Kiss me",he said.

My eyes widened.Did I hear it right?

"Sorry, what?" I asked.

"I said, kiss me.That's your punishment", he whispered eyeing my glossed lips.

"Manik, please!" I tried cajoling him.

His eyes turned red.

"Can't you hear me?" He spoke dangerously.

I was on the verge of tears already.

"I don't have all day", he spoke a little louder.

"I can't ruin my first kiss.I'm saving it for my love", I said between my sobs, but I saw no mercy in his eyes.

"I'm saying this for the last time.Are you bloody doing it or not?" He asked dangerously.

Ofcourse not.

Before I could say anything else Manik's phone started ringing and he rolled his eyes seeing the caller name.

"Yeah Cabir, Shut up! Okay I'm coming", with one warning look, he left the place.

Thank god! Peace for sometime.

I walked out to see them leaving the place.

I completed my works for that day and started walking home.

My life took a three- sixty degree turn since the day I met him.
