Hi. It's Me

“Why” I turned my head towards him. His face was really confused as if he is trying and putting something on his head or can say calculating something. He took out his and wrote something. After four to five seconds he said “I ..ah…no go down. Me celebrity...no media and this is urgent”. After saying this his face showed expression of relief. I understood by now that he is a celebrity and he can’t go down and probably he will be chased down by media, I guess. 

“Okay . But I won’t get another taxi if I don’t go by this. Its late.” My face showed concern as I spoke these lines.
I hoped he got it as I already figured out that he non-English speaker.

“Madam” Driver of the taxi spoke. As he called we both looked to driver’s side.

“You both can share the taxi and whosever’s destination comes first I’ll drop and then go for next destination.” Driver said. 

Sounds good to me so I turned to him. He looked puzzled with his beautiful eyes. I was directly looking into his eyes for his answer as his whole face was covered with mask and cap ,only these pair of eyes were visible. My mind was giving me hints on how similar these eyes look with the eyes I have been awestruck few hours back. While I was busy thinking all these I didn’t realise that I was really staring into his eyes .

“Excuse Me..I don’t understand” . His face was embarrassed I observed .I was looking straight into his eyes.

“Ahhh.. he said ..we both can ride the taxi and go together”. I tried to convey through my hand gestures.

”No problem..Ok Ok” he nodded and showed me thumbs up gesture.

It looked like he was give a slight smile as approval. I couldn’t see his face so with hand gesture as okay I told the driver that we will share the taxi. He showed the location to the driver and I told mine about night market drop. His location was nearby but he would drop out earlier than me. We both nodded as driver explained and looked for consent.

Taxi moved ahead, I looked at the dazzling lights by side of roads .Porch lights of the building and apartment illuminated the inn of the buildings. I eyes got dreamy while moving ahead in the taxi.
My heart jumped out by the loud screeching sound of applying the front break. I almost bumped into front seat and controlled myself as my reflexive sense of putting my hands at front seat.

Driver turned back and said “Sorry Sir.Sorry Madam..There was a cat”. I was shocked and my heart was still beating slow but I understand driver’s step so I nodded as if its okay .

"Ok! OK! No problem”. I heard from his side.

I was so astonished with the surroundings this while that I almost forgot that I was sitting with some celebrity.

As our taxi slowly picked up its pace,I realised something soft and wet above my right hand which was still holding the front seats tightly. And I trailed my eyes the hands to the owner of those hands . As I moved my eyes ,both of us looked at the same time and our eyes were fixing at each other’s face and then on hands . I was like its you whose hands are above my hands and my mind was already getting into defensive mode if he mistakes me of taking an undue advantage of him as we are travelling.

I quickly moved my hand and he also moved his hand with lighting speed .

He said”Sorry.sorry”.

“It’s okay” I gladly said and also with the sigh of relief. I was relief because now I won’t be mistaken as some crazy weirdo or crazy pervert. 

While our taxi moved ahead after this super awkward moment I was highly alert with every single move of his. There some light or gravity between us that aroused a super sensitive pull. It was dangerous feeling where I was afraid to look at my right side and my heart still wanting it. Now my heart and mind were coming at a common understanding is it Tae.

He said he was celebrity, I was sure it was this pair of eyes and this same feel of body. Though my every part was saying it might be him but still I couldn’t accept. May be my heart knew if it accepted then it would be difficult to survive as I may stop breathing.

Car pulled to the corner of the street of some building . Driver indicated the stop for him and when I looked at his side . His eyes were gazing at…..
