Winter's Love

55

If I had planned this, it wouldn't go so well. I was a little worried about having him at home, but everything was in the background before the possibility of sharing with him a time away from work. We were sitting in the living room watching a program, while we waited the food to finish cooking. I wondered what he was thinking, he looked a little tense. Was innocence playing havoc with him? I laughed and laid my head on his legs, making him jump back in surprise. At this point he must be thinking in anything, maybe considering that I do what I want. I felt confident very quick around people, so I never stopped doing almost everything I wanted to do. If Ravi thought he was my boyfriend, he should start getting used to these things.

I thought that one of the reasons why I was so calm is that I imagined many times what it would be like to be around him. To the point that I created conversations that never really took place. Yes, I was completely crazy. Would you blame me? This man has been my life for the last few years and he wasn't even aware. A sad fact, that's the truth. But he was here now, so I feel that this last nightmare was useful.

-I'll be back, I'll go to the kitchen -He who had begun to run his hand through my hair, looked at me intensely, leaving me there for a moment dazed. If Ravi looked at me that way all the time I would be lost, because he paralyzed everything, even my breathing. I wondered what he was thinking while studying me carefully. That question ended at a point far in my mind when he came slowly down and captured my lips.

I enjoyed every movement of his lips next to mine, in a slow and unhurried kiss. This man was my addiction, I could be all day kissing him and not think about anything else. Although not just kissing him, being with Ravi made the world around something trivial that only becomes significant when he is present. I was lost in him... and he doesn't know how much.

As much as I wanted to stay where I was, I didn't want to burn down my apartment... although, on second thought, this was a good reason to let it catch fire, right? I pull him a little to get him to stop kissing me, with all the sorrow of my being. I wanted to keep kissing him! Ahh, those little injustices of life.

-The food... fire -He laughed at my incoherence.

-What? -I moved my head from side to side to clarify my ideas before continuing to babble idiocies.

-The food is still on the stove. I don't want to cause a fire.

-So adorable -He laughed softly.

I stood up immediately and almost ran to the kitchen. He was going to stay here today... this was going to be a pretty difficult test. Outside the rain fell without any sign of stopping. Geez, I didn't even know if this was normal here. I shrugged my shoulders, in the end, that wasn't the most important thing. I tried the food and it was ready. I danced around the kitchen looking for dishes to make the table.

-That smells deliciously good -Ravi was in the dining room without even calling him.

-Does the food summon you? -He smiled openly.

-I should consider staying here more often.

-Are you like your brothers? They really don't stop offering me a room in your house -At this point, I was beginning to think they meant it.

-No -He shook his head vehemently- I don't want to share. I prefer to come here and be with you than to have to fight with them.

-You are incorrigible.

-You are my girlfriend, not theirs -He said as if this were reason enough.

-It's not that you're jealous of your own brothers, huh? -I let out a snort that ended in a laugh-. Anyway, I don't remember saying yes -Ravi sat on the chair like someone who does not know what you're talking about.
