Secrecy of Regrets

29 Was Request, now an Order

 29 Was Request, now an Order

"She is enjoying your company in very short span of time. She had never been this comfortable with anyone except me and Ethan."

"Are you sure? I don't want you to allow me to stay at her home in one moment and throw me out in other. You know the bipo-" I couldn't help myself but put my doubts before him but I just got carried away by calling him Bipolar.

But unfortunately he caught my word!

Urghhh.... Jiyana...

"Okay, Bye. I'll let you know tomorrow." I informed him and immediately turned to open the car door but it's locked.

It is locked!!!

You ask it for yourself, Jiyana.

"Exactly" horrified I, turned to JERK.

"By any chance, do you have any special ability to hear the words someone thinks in mind?" I asked him.

He raised his eyebrows bored as if 'you again started this nonsense'

"I said by any chance" – I tried to explain by gesturing quotation mark in air. He shook his head.

"By any chance, do you know that you sometimes blurt out the things you should not speak at all?"

I looked at my folding hands on my lap because I certainly cannot accept that fact.

"I am serious about letting you stay at Charlotte's."

I looked at him. Did he forget about Bipolar thing?

"I don't want to barge into someone's life and definitely not want to claim to stay at their home, if it was my first impression on you. I was not planning to create that idea at all in her crazy mind. I seriously don't know where that idea came from. I wouldn't have met any of you guys if it was not for her drunk situation. I could not just walk away from the girl who actually needed someone. And I helped her. I was about to go back to my hotel and she caught my hand. I-"

"It's okay. It doesn't matter. If you feel comfortable, you can let me know. I'll talk to her. She will be more than happy. You can search for apartment for one or two days if you want."

"I'll search for decent and affordable apartment. I'll consider your request also." I assured him.

"It's not a request." I almost took him as good person. ALMOST

Thank god, I am brought back to reality. I stuck my tongue out.

"Bye." And here I forgot that door is still locked.

"I have paid for the hotel room. So I should recover the value for my money spent. Shouldn't I?" I narrowed my eyes at him to open the door.

"Please, open the door would have been better instead of this economics lecture, you know?" He reverted back.

"I tried it first time. But I came to a conclusion that you cannot understand normal people's language. You always need some explanations. So..."

I give him a best fake charming smile and this time he opened the door and I climbed out of the car.

"Wait." So I turned to him. I didn't forget anything, did I?

"My proposal was as equal as request-"A smile crept on my face.

"-Before" My smile disappeared.

"You called me bipolar. Consider it as an order." He did not forget. And he drove off with his triumph smile.

I will find an apartment on rent. It is not because I don't want to stay with Charlotte but this jerk of a man.
