"Virat what are you doing?" I have my doubts right not. What is he coming so close to me for?
"Ermm giving you a hug. Normal people hug after, you know, sharing their tragic story." He replied like it was the most normal thing to do.
I moved away and made a face, "No you already hugged me today morning. You are lucky I let you hug me once."
He folded his hands, "Thank you Manvi madam for letting me hug you once. My life's goal is fulfilled now."
Why does he have to be so annoying? "Arghh shut up Casanova."
He pouted and looked at me with a puppy dog face, "Not even one hug?"
He thinks that stupid puppy dog face will melt my heart? Yeah right. "You really think it is going to work on me?"
He looked at me clearly annoyed, "Well it works on me when YOU use it and let me remind you, you use it every day to get your way."
Hahah so true. See Virat is like that, he can't resist a puppy dog face. To get Virat to do what you want just make a sad face and plead. I swear it works every time. Infact just last weekend he came shopping with me for the entire day and also watched a chick flick with me. "It works on you because you are a softie Casanova."
"Do you need my help or not? Hawaii trip, need to convince your mom remember?" He said proudly.
Oh shit I forgot about that. "Maybe" I said and pleaded him with my eyes to not blackmail me.
But son of a gun.. "I need a hug first."
"Why don't you go hug blondie aka Paige? She will hug you any day you know." I said sarcastically.
He gave me a really expression.
"Fine." I opened my arms and he hugged me tightly, lifting my feet off the ground. Okay I have to admit that I sort of liked getting hugged. I feel so much better and the sinking feeling in my heart is gone. Man this guy is a good hugger.
He pulled out of the hug with a huge grin, "See I knew you could use a good hug."
"Who said I liked it?" I tried to put a straight face.
He lightly hit my head, "Please dumbo it is written all over your face that you loved it."
"Hey dumbo is my word." I argued.
"Your word? Are you getting some kind of an award for discovering the word?" He laughed at me for the hundredth time today. ARGHHH
"Mom." I stood right behind my mom and called her.
She turned around and was quite shocked to see me. She rearranged her features and changed it from shock to anger. I'm so going to regret this later. I hate you Virat for making me do this.
"So I erm you know I." I couldn't say it. It has been so long since I have had a proper conversation with mom or even addressed her. It is usually mom screaming at me and me zoning out or screaming back. This is awkward.
"Okay what I did last night was sortta not good? Virat thinks I should talk to you."
"Who is Virat?" She asked rudely.
"Doesn't matter." I gave a rude reply then I realized that I was supposed to make things better between us so I quickly added, "My friend."
She nodded me to continue.
"Well I don't think I did anything wrong but Virat thinks I did so maybe I was kindda wrong. But that doesn't make you right either. You told me you regret having me which is even worse than what I did. If I am expected to apologize then you should too."
