"Adya!" He yelled. "You were supposed to be here half an hour ago." He spoke taking her wheeled suitcase in his charge. His other hand holding her hand.
"Oh, I was well before time." She gasped, catching her breath. "Billing took time!" She added scuttling to keep up with his long strides.
Liar. Before time and her? No way!
"Billing what?" He asked as they stood on a step of the escalator. His eyes gleaming in mirth, they both still were so synchronized to take the damn step at the same moment.
"Burgers."
"Seriously?"
"Yeah. I didn't eat anything before leaving home as I had to be on time."
Lie. Again. She had eaten a full plate and she certainly hadn't left home on time. He looked at the sign board.
"Adya, that way." He instructed pointing at the women's security check.
"I know," she snapped flicking her hair.
"Wonderful!" He smiled rolling his eyes.
Together again, he stared at her in exasperation. She hadn't even combed her hair properly. There was nothing that could change this lady. "Adya, walk fast."
"Women don't fly. And I am a woman."
He made a half baked annoying face. "Men don't fly either!"
"No. They fly with wings made of ego and pride."
"Over-feminist!" He accused.
She glared at him, chewing the bubblegum in her mouth. That was it. "Adya, spit that out." He said stopping midway momentarily.
"Shut up!" She said annoyed pulling him to the boarding gate. He smiled as she held his arm above the elbow. Such a possessive hold. He cleared his mind as he found it going to places it shouldn't.
"Adya. You know.. I hate the smell."
"Not my problem. Gentle reminder of our deal here." She spoke smirking.
"Whatever!" He said handing their boarding passes to the security. He smiled giving it back.

"Woosh.!" He said settling in the seat towards the aisle. She had made it to the window seat like a stubborn ten year old girl. Much to his annoyance, the seat before his seemed to have been reserved for the kid who was looking at him. His eyes were green. Dhruv narrowed his eyes an attempt to simply scare him and make him turn to the front. The kid chuckled. He tried again. But the kid continued chuckling.
