HIS DARK DEMONS (✔️)

Chapter 25

Nidhi's POV

I woke up to the sunlight on my face. Strange, but true, I was expecting him to be here today as well. Was I falling badly, for him?

I get out of the bed, and directly to the washroom. I shower, get fresh, wash my face, wrap a towel around my body, and go out. Again, I expected he was here. He wasn't though.

I wear my underwear and bra. Since today's a day off, I decided to go with a light yellow top and white shorts. I did my hair into a messy bun. Today's a no makeup day for me, but a little mascara and lip balm wouldn't be bad. I quickly apply a thin layer of mascara and then my cherry lip balm. I wear my flip flops, and head downstairs.

I find Antra in the kitchen, preparing breakfast. I go to the coffee machine and pour some coffee for me.

"How fun was yesterday?" She wonders.

"Much fun, to be honest." I reply honestly. I really enjoyed a lot. He did not scare me. A little bit may be, but that was initially. Otherwise, everything was good.

"And are you both, you know, a thing?" She asks me in hopes.

Oh! Did I forget to mention that I did not tell my bestfriend about the guy I'm in love with being a psychic serial killer?

"Not yet, we're taking things slow." I reply timidly.

"Oh well, okay!"

I sat quietly for some minutes.

"Okay what's in your mind? Spill it!" She hushes.

"I was hoping he was here today as well, surprising me and all, you know?" I admit.

"He's out, go." She smiles.

My eyes are wide open now. This was totally unexpected. Damn!

I complete my coffee and head front doors. As I open it, there he is, sitting on the wooden chair, beside the tea table. His attention is to me now, and he's smiling at me. I return the kind gesture by smiling back at him. I walk at him, as he stood up.

He hugs me which is totally unexpected. He pulls out another chair for me. And we finally sit. He is staring at me, with nothing but love. And I'm feeling hella shy.

"Stop!" I say.

"What?" He chuckles.

"Stop looking at me like that." I look away.

"You don't want me to admire a beautiful masterpiece?" He says, still chuckling.

I just look at him, and smile. How can a person like him had done such horrible things, I wonder.

"So, why're you here?" I ask.

"I thought you might want to see me." He says.

"Well, someone's being flirty." I say.

He chuckles yet again.

"And well someone's in a good mood today." He says looking at me.

This time, I chuckle.

"But seriously, why're you here?"

"I just wanted to see you." He says.

"Oh."

He raises an eyebrow at me.

"Can I be honest with you?" I ask quickly.

He nods his head in agreement.

"I was secretly hoping you'd come." And I bite my lip.

Smile wide in his face.

"Awww!"

"Don't awww!"

"It's okay, love. You don't have to overthink about it." He says. "And also, I was hoping we could continue the truth game as well."

"Antra is home."

"Did your bestfriend not tell you she's having date with my bestfriend?"

"What? How could she not tell me?"

"She does not know either! Chinmay planned a surprise." He laughs. I swat his arm. "And what about you? Did you tell her about me, my past?"

"Nope. I'll do that later."
