His stares and her giggles

chapter 23

"So you guys are living in" he couldn't hold back his curiosity in asking while Aditi's smile faded this time. But Zain was fast enough to cut in-between.

"Yes" he spoke while Aditi looked at him with a shocking expression. Zain in turn just winked at her.

"Look at her face man" Zain started to laugh out even though the other two didn't understand anything.

"Of course I was joking" Zain added while aditi was now glaring at him. More than getting conscious she was getting suspicious over zains action.

Is he hiding something, she thought herself as she turned around to see the other one getting up.

"Then bye guys, got to go" he announced while aditi and Zain also stood along with him getting ready to send him off.

"One minute" aditi stopped him when he was about to leave. Expecting some sweet cherishing words or may be a mere hug he turned back to greet stern aditi.

"I hope this will be the last time!" aditi spoke in a single go looking into his eyes and then moved inside without even sending off. But Zain was standing there with a simpering smile to do the honors.

"Hey bro, good then. Hope you understood her words. Don't try to disturb her again" Zain concluded before slamming the door intentionally.

................................

"A tedious chapter over" Zain stood beside her in the counter where aditi was stirring the coffee mug.

"That was over long before. Now I just don't want any mention about it in my upcoming chapters" she said with smile handing his mug.

"You are the strongest one I have ever seen." Aditi chuckled at his statement.

"It costs everything to be like that, everything!" Zain understood what she meant and he couldn't hold back his feelings.

How I wish you were drunken daily, so that you won't hesitate to be you when you are with me! He thought.

"Sometimes it's good to pay much to get valuable lessons" he added. Sighing deeply aditi took another sip. His words rang inside her as she was taking in each sip.

"You never know. It's hard to be mature always" Zain gave a slight smile at her lost conversation.

The next few minutes were a welcoming silence with few ruffling noise that their lips made as they extracted their drink cherishing its wonderful aroma.

"It takes a right man to stimulate the child in you." Zain made a husky note near her ears before dropping his mug back on the sink which was exactly behind her. Aditi was all stiffen not understanding what to do while Zain just smiled at her.

No wonder how much she try, her thoughts always drift on what ever happened between them last night and the Sherlock inside her give her all sort of suggestions which she is silently praying to be false.

Only god knows the profundity of her inner turmoil. Or may be we can add Zain also in that case.

"Let me leave now aditi. Meet you on sets tomorrow. Or may be on car, if you allow me to pick you up" Zain gave a naughty look which was not left unnoticed by aditi. How confident he has become overnight, her mind warned.

"Well, I don't want to get late" aditi replied rubbing off his attempt to flirt with her.

"Never thought that my lift would get you late. Never mind I know I am hot" he gave the most impossible reply which aditi was definitely not expecting to come up.

Aditi glared at Zain while Zain was standing at the door steps.

"Ohkay, now stop starring" he replied looking no response from her. "You want some punch to regain your senses!" she raised her fist in response and once again both broke in fits of laughter.

"Thanks for the amazing stay lovely" Zain greeted as he waved her.

Aditi did a quick wave back before slamming the door as the lift got its life. She leaned against the wooden piece as she released herself sliding down and hugging her holded knees. All thoughts started to cloud her up and she begin to recollect the past 24 hours.

.................................

Sighing deeply Zain remembered all sweet memories he had with aditi few hours before. The way she was in his arms peacefully. The way she faced him confidently. The way she was cutely trying to suppress what she found. If only you know what has happened aditi, he thought.

Sighing deeply he mumbled, She is the one, and he repeated once again as he fastened the car.

Dil chori saadda ho gaya
oye ki kariye, ki kariye
naino mein kisi ke kho gaya
oye ki kariye, ki kariye

Abhi heard Zain mumbling the lyrics as he saw him entering the flat.

"Abe! Kaha thi tum" he shrieked out in frustration startling Zain for a second.

"Kyuu, tujhe kya" Zain raised his eyebrows remembering what the whole gang did to them. Though he has to thank them for all this, he was still not in a mood to give bhaav.

"Now, are you goanna say or not" abhi grabbed his collars and apart from jokes Zain found him worried.

"Relax abhi! Do I look like not fine" he extended his arms to let him check.

"Arey yaar! Ab bolegi bhi nahi" he added in frustration as he found him playing with words.

"I will but under a condition" Zain smirked at the confused abhi.

"What" he asked with a bewildered look.

"Add me in the adiza group" he said casually while it was abhi's turn to get shocked.
