Athira Patel

"Hello" I said feeling nervous all of a sudden.

"Baby.. Are you fine? Where are you? Why didn't you lift the call dear? Are you ok?" he fired questions repeatedly without giving me a space to say something. So i just listened to his questions silently without uttering any word while chuckling to his cuteness.

"Athira you there? Hello?" he asked when there was no response from my side.

I composed myself from smiling and cleared my throat to get his attention.

"Yes i am there. You didn't give me the chance to say anything. So i thought of listening to you until you stop your ranting." I said smiling at him and covering myself with the blanket more.

"Sorry... I was just... you know... worried about you that my brain is not working properly" he said sheepishly sounding kind of awkward to which I chuckled making him groan in return.

"Oh. That's a news then.. The great Project manager whose brain is not working properly.." I teased him while we both chuckled to my comment.

"Ha ha.. Very funny. Now you are mocking me" he huffed while saying it.

"Me? Mocking? That too with you? No way. You are my manager sir. How can i do that with you?" I said facking my shock to his comment.

"Now now. Stop it right there madam." He said faking his anger to which i laughed in return.

"Ok ok" i said composing myself "where are you?" I asked remembering about the messages in which he mentioned that he was searching for me earlier.

"I am at home Athira. But you didn't answer my question. Are you fine?" He asked again becoming serious.

"I am fine Abhilash. No need to worry." I said feeling guilty for leaving like that and started fidgeting with my blanket ends. "Umm... Sorry for scaring you like that." I said almost whispering that I thought he didn't even listen to it.

"You know, I want to scold you alot for doing that stunt. But I know that I am to blame equally for that decision of yours. So sorry Athira. For hurting you" he apologized sincerely making my heart melt and flutter for him at the same time.

But am i ready to agree that in front of him? Am I ready to accept that I felt jealous of her? But then again i remembered the words of big brother and how I want to give him a chance. But before that there are many things I need to get clarity from him.

"Uhhh... will you get surprised if i say that i got jealous of her?" I whispered the sentence in fear of getting embarrassed if he doesn't feel the same way.

"Nooo... WAIT... WHAT DID YOU SAY?" he exclaimed shocked hearing my words. I cursed myself for letting out the words in the first place. I knew that he didn't have any feelings for me. I am an idiot to even think for a moment that he likes me back.

My heart pained thinking that he didn't like me back but controlled myself from crying in call.

"Forget that i even said it. Bye" i said hurriedly and thought of disconnecting the call when his voice stopped me.
