On The Cold Night

26

This is one of my favorite chapter. You'll know why.👇

Ravi groaned when he saw that it is raining already. He went down to the store to buy Ken's pillows and for unexplaineable reason, there really are pillows available down there. He bought two white medium sized. He was about to leave the store when it suddenly rained hard. He groaned and sat on the floor then laid down on the pillows that are covered with plastic. The cashiers kept their giggling when they saw how crazy he is.

"Damn it." he cursed. He just sat up when he saw an old woman who looks like attempting to leave. 'Is this granny stupid or what? Can't she see that it's raining?' he thought. The old woman took out her phone and answered a call and accidentally tapped the speaker button making Ravi able to hear the person on the next line.

"Mom, just where the hell are you? I told you to make it quick now it's raining. Just buy an umbrella there and make it fast. I need those right now! Geez." a girl who seems to be the daughter yelled at the woman.

"I-I'm really sorry. You're mother's bones are getting weaker. I can't walk that fast anymore." she replied with a slight tone of disapointment and hurt in her sentence.

"Whatever. Just get the hell in here right now." the girl yelled again then hung up the call. The woman sighed and put the phone down. She took her purse out of her jacket pocket only to find the receipt of the things that she bought. Ravi's blood boil. He sure is going to beat the shit out of that child of her regardless of her gender.

He stood up to the cashier and excused himself. "Ahm...do have there a huge plastic...just about this size where these two damn fatties could fit in." he said refering to the two pillows. The cashiers failed to contain their smiles after hearing such foul words from him.

"Ah, give me the pillows sir. I'll put them there inside the stock room." one of them offered. Ravi agreed and thanked them. He waited patiently then thanked them again when they gave him the pillows, safely wrapped by a huge plastic. He rushed to the woman and tapped her shoulder. The woman looked at him with a questioning look.

"Ahm...hi...ahm...you looks like in rush. Mind if I walk you back to the building with my umbrella?" he asked with a smiling face. The woman frowned.

"Ah, thank you but how about you? You'll get wet and might catch a cold." she asked worriedly. Ravi quickly shook his head.

"No no. Don't worry about me. I'm as good as fuck." he said smiling which caused the woman to widened her eyes and for the cashiers to laughed. He caughed when he realized what he just said. "Ah s-sorry about that. Just a habbit." he said shyly. The woman just smiled at him then bowed to thank him. He opened the umbrella and started to escort the woman who is walking really slowly. Ravi paid no attention to the cold drops on his body which soaked him almost immediately after they stepped out of the store. The cashiers went wild as they watched them and adorned the guy for being such a gentle man.

It feels like they took ages before they finally reached the building but in reality, it just took fifteen minutes. Ravi forced the woman to hand him the load of stuffs she has been holding and insisted to walk her up to her destination. He is really eager to give the shitty daughter a lesson. They got there and the door opened when the woman called for her daughter after few knocks.

"You're too slow." she said and just shut up when she saw that her mother was accompanied by Ravi.
"R-Ravi?" she mutered in amazement. Ravi sighed and gave her the stuffs.

"Look. You're mother is weaker now. Be nicer will you? Some people don't have their mothers anymore and will never be able to see them in their damn life but you... you are fucking lucky and I think you should keep that in mind brat." he said and walks off. The woman and the girl stood frozen. The girl however felt guilty when she saw her mother crying without any sound.
