"Tell from the morning again." Vithika asked again after I told her the whole story of weekend.

" I already told you didn't I??" I said rolling my eyes.

" I didn't listen carefully, tell me again."

"Fine"

*Flashback*

I can smell minty warm air blowing on my face occasionally. I tried to wake up but the warmth of the blanket won't let me, it holds me back on my place and then the minty air refreshing my mind but making me indolent at the same time. With much efforts I open my eyes. The first thing I see is a perfect jaw with trimmed beard, a little parted thin lips,the source of the minty air, long nose and at last the the closed eyes which showed how peaceful the person in front me is sleeping.

Wait...a PERSON!!!????

I blink my eyes and look at the face again. Aarsh's face is just in front of mine, inches apart. His face is so peaceful when he's sleeping. No hard looks, no bad boy facade, only gentleness. I look down on the pillow and see our hands touching briefly. His breath still hitting my face. I get weird feeling inside my chest, something heavy but light.

He stirs a little bit and I close my eyes pretending to be asleep. His breath stops, he might have seen how close he is to me, even though there is a pillow between us. I feel a weight lifting from my leg. I was so lost in his face that I didn't realized that his leg was on the top of mine which was on the pillow between us. Thank god he was wearing a pajama. I feel the bed move and his breath moving away. He stands up from the bed and I hear the bathroom door opening and closing. I release the breath I didn't know I was holding and turn on my back thinking of his face. I hear the flush going off after sometime and when I hear the door lock click, I started to fake yawn like I just woke up. He comes out and clears his throat. I look at him and he says pointing at the door that opens in the hallway " I'll check if the door is unlocked yet" and moves towards the it. He tries to open the door but its still locked. He sighs and sits back on the bed.

"Now what do we??" I asked and he just shrugged. " I'm hungry" I mumbled load enough for him to hear and just then my stomach replied with a load growl. But he didn't said anything. After a long silence I stood up and went in the bathroom to freshen up.

When I came out Aarsh was serving food on the table near the couch. I almost ran to him and asked "Where did all this came from?? Is the door unlocked??"

"I went out in the balcony and saw this basket there. There was this note in it" he said and handed me a note. it said 'Hii Bhai, Hii Bhabhi. Good morning and I hope the night was also good ;p. I'm not letting you guys out till afternoon so don't try. There is breakfast in the basket if you are hungry and lunch will be sent to you by the same means when its time. If you want to take a bath then Bhai you already have your cloths and Bhabhi you can wear his. Enjoy your time together. Love from Shreya'

"Seriously??....Whatever, at least she gave breakfast, I'm hungry as hell right now." I said and sat on the couch with Aarsh, careful to maintain some distance between us. There were sandwich, milkshake,mix juice and chapati rolls on the table and my mouth started to water at the sight. I picked an empty plate and placed a piece sandwich, a chapati roll and poured myself a glass of milk shake. I started to eat like a hungry pig. Aarsh just stared at me like I'm some maniac. "You can eat too. Consider this as your home."

"Ohhh I'm flattered." he said boringly and served himself. "You know generally the wife serves food to her husband"

"Well, I'm not your wife and please don't expect me to do so in the future too." I said not even looking at him and focusing on my food.
