The next day went as prevailing , with humdrum lectures , recess without Tuba and then again the humdrum lectures . I hadn't spoken to her much as I was engaged with some work .
As I was heading home from school , I received a text from Tuba "Hey ! How are you ? Guess what ! My parents are going out at 5:00 pm and won't be back for almost 2 to 3 hours . Wanna drop in ?? ❤❤ "
Finally I would be meeting my love after 4 long days . I went home , changed and had lunch . I wanted to get something for so I headed to the nearest bakery and bought a small white chocolate cake and 2 bars of Hershey's milk chocolate bars . I had left my phone in the car , there were 3 missed calls from Tuba when I returned . I dialed her back .
"Muss where are you ? It's 5:30 pm , are you busy ? " she asked . I told her I was on my way . I reached her lane , parked my car a two to three houses away from her's and went in . She was already at the gate . I looked to my left and right , made sure no one saw me and creeped in . The moment I shut the gate , she clinged onto me like a baby monkey .
"I missed you so much Mustafa . " she said . "I missed you more baby . " I said placing a kiss on her forehead .
It felt so good to see her , to hold her in my arms and be with her .
Tuba's POV:
All of my sickness vanished the moment I fell into his arms . He held me so tight as if he was gonna loose me . "How do you feel ?" "I feel much better , now . " I replied with a wink . We went inside as Osaid and Ada greeted him . He was looking around for Salwa as she was his favorite . "She has gone with dad and mom ." I said as if reading his mind , he let out a sigh of chagrin .
"Am starving but no in a mood to cook . " I complained . He went into the kitchen and looked into the cabinets and food ladder but couldn't find anything . There was a smile on his face as he looked into the refrigerator . "When was this dosa batter prepared ?" he asked . "Ummm...maybe some 5-6 days ago . " He dipped his finger into the batter and licked it and made a funny face . He thought for some time and then he smirked looking at me "Would you like to taste my new dish ? THE LEMON DOSA " he asked with his hand smoothing down his hair .
"Am ready to eat anything for now . " I replied hearing my tummy growl for the nth time .
Mustafa's POV:
I licked the dosa batter , it was tainted and tasted sour . Tuba was incognizant about the fact that the batter would turn out sour if it was spoilt , so I planned to play a prank on her and advance her mood by serving her "THE LEMON DOSA".
I got the pan and prepared the dosa , poured some chocolate syrup to make it look more delicious . "Yo babe , it's ready . " I said as I saw her sitting on the couch , scrolling through her phone......wait!! it was my phone !! "What's so interesting ?" I asked curiously as I saw a smile spread on her lips .
"Well nothing much , just seeing your childhood pictures . " she said laughing . I never showed my childhood pics to any of my friends , especially girl friends , but it was fine with Tuba . At least it made her laugh . She set the phone on the couch , came towards and took the plate and went back to the couch after placing a kiss on my cheek .
She devoured the whole dosa without a single complain , she was indeed hungry . "How was it ?" I asked . "It was good except for the sourness , maybe excess of lemon . " she replied innocently as she placed the plate in the sink . I didn't want to reveal that the batter was spoilt , afraid that she might throw up and make herself sick again . And moreover , I would be killed by her .
"Shhh!!! stay quite , it's mum calling . " she instructed picking up her ringing phone .
"Ji mom bolo (yes mom say) , I was just watching stuff on T.V. , Ada is doing her homework and Osaid is playing PS4 . " she said . "If you guys are hungry then order some pizza or whatever you want . " her mom said . "Am full , I just had a special dosa , I will ask if Ada and Osaid want something . "
"Are....that batter had become sour , it was spoilt and I had forgotten to throw it . " her mom replied . She looked at me , her mouth wide open . I couldn't control my laughter after seeing her aghasted face . She disconnected the call and looked at me fiercely , her hands on her hips .
"What ?? It tasted good only na , at least it filled your stomach . " I said in a defending tone still laughing . "Urgh Mustafa , you are so mean , I hate you . " she said like a protesting kid . "Are baby , am sorry , i just wanted to lighten up your mood by doing some mischievousness . " I said making a puppy face .
Suddenly I remembered about the chocolate and cake left in the car . "I have got something for you , will be back in an instant . " I said running out .
"Here take this , I cover up for my mistake . " I said handing over it to her . "You are such an asshole , but a cute one though . " she said narrowing her eyes .
"I wanna remember this moment whenever I have a look at this picture . " she said by taking a cute selfie of our's . She posted that picture on Instagram and captioned it "Lemon dosa , it seems 😒😒" and tagged me .
"Wasn't it delicious ? 😂" I commented on that pic .
"I hate you Mustafa Khan . 👊"
"I love you more babes , muahhh 😘" I replied .
I looked at my watch and it was time to leave so I bid her goodbye and drove off .
