Chapter 7

8 Months Later

He pushed the door-room, seeing it already open. Entering inside, he saw her sleeping hugging her pillow. A smile creeped on his face. Moving around, he opened the curtains letting the morning rays to enter and fall on her face.

"Noo.." she whinned and covered her face behind the pillow.

"Its already 6:45 hrs. You will be late to school." He said, trying to pull her blanket.

She groaned in irritation and blinked her eyes open. Blinking them again and adjusting to light, she sat up against the wall.

"Morning." He chirped.

"Hmm." She said closing her eyes.

"You say morning as well." He rolled his eyes.

"Happy morning." She said forcing a tight smile on her lips, then narrowed her eyes at him.

"Don't look as if you would eat me up this instant. I have breakfast ready for you to eat." He says folding her quilt.

After a warm silence, he looked to see her looking at him with a warm smile playing on her lips. He frowned and narrowed his eyes at her now.

"What?" She shrugged as reply, making him roll his eyes.

"Get up." He almost yelled at her.

"You are so meany." She says pulling her dress out of closet for the day.

"I know. You told me alot of times for me to not forget." She rolled her eyes, entering inside the washroom.

*15 minutes later*

Hurrying out, she slipped into her heels and took her handbag. Sitting on the chair she made herself a cup of tea.

"Slow down gudia." He chidded her.

"I am late." She said.

"Then why don't you try getting up early?" He mocked her.

"Bhai..." She whinned.

"What!! If only you could get up 10 minutes early. You would never miss your bus and will be on time to school. I am amused to know who even made you a teacher!!"

"And who made you a manager." She muttered under her breath biting on her bread.

"I am on time as always. Don't compare me with yourself!!! I am very punctual, unlike you."

"Fine. What about the day you were late to pick me just because you had to fill petrol in your car?"

"You know the reason and you yet complaining!!"

"But you were late for about 7 minutes and 45 seconds."

"But- .... Ok. I rest my case." He shook his head, accepting defeat in front of her.

Why to even argue with a women? When you know you are fighting a lost case.

"Yayy! You know I always win. Why do you even try to mess with me." She flipped her hair.

"Whatever." He said having his juice.

"Ok. Now get up. You need to drop me today."

"I. Am. Not. Doing. That."

"You. Are. Doing. That."

"Thats so bad of you. Why don't you listen to me. I was good when I was alone." He pouted but regretted later.

He looked at her to see hurt marring her face but she quickly covered it before he could notice and blinked the tears back, putting on the smile.

"I told you to let me go." She whispered.
