Anand's POV
"Anand get up..." She said softly.
I turned around facing the bed while my eyes still closed.
"Uff. Hello sir, I'm talking to you" she said shaking my arm.
"Get up Anand! Do you want to lose your job or what?" She said with irritation.
"Anu just shut up," I said with irritation.
"How rude!" She said leaving my arm.
Yeah.... I agree that was rude but she knew it very well that I get irritated easily in the morning. Especially when I feel sleepy and lazy.
After a minute or so my body started sweating. Soon the room became hot and I understood immediately the reason behind it. To take my irritation to the next level she off the fan.
I quickly sat up with an annoyed face that made her jerk back and she dropped her phone down. Seeing that I couldn't stop myself from smiling
"Do I look that scary?" I asked while still smiling
"Um. No" she said looking at her phone on the floor.
I moved to the edge of the bed, letting my feet down to touch the floor. She bent down to pick up her phone.
"Thank God!" she said standing straight again after checking her phone and making sure it was fine.
"You know very well to irritate me," I said with half-smile.
She looked at the switch of the fan and back at me.
"I'm sorry. That was the only way left to wake you up" she said with an apologetic smile.
"And it worked," I said lifting my shoulders slightly.
I noticed that my irritation was gone.
"It worked" she agreed with a smile.
"Now. Anand please get up and get ready" she said it fastly.
"Why?" I raised my eyebrows.
"Why?" She repeated after me "it's 9:30 already you will be late to the office.
I rolled my eyes which I don't do usually. That got her attention more than necessary.
" did you just roll your ey-"
I cut her off saying "oh God Anu! It's Sunday!"
I don't know for rolling my eyes or for knowing it was Sunday, She looked puzzled.
"Who works on Sunday," I asked rubbing my neck.
"Oh." She said after checking it on her phone. "Well I do," she said with a smile.
"You don't have to If you don't want to do. We can get a maid." I said feeling sorry for her.
She never complained about anything except my behavior which was fair enough considering my stupid behavior. I really felt bad especially on Sundays and holidays when I sit lazily and she works even on those days.
"No. It's fine." She said carrying an innocent smile on her face.
I smiled back.
"Can I go back to sleep then, madam?" I asked like a child.
Her smile became a grin. "Yes, you can."
Are things between us back to normal? I thought, throwing myself on the bed. That conversation was kind of cute but I had fun yesterday pretending to be angry with her. I decided to bring that Ananda back when she doesn't listen to me. I don't want to scare her I just want to make her more comfortable around me and I observed she like it more when I behave normally like now, and of course not like yesterday. Though I enjoyed pranking her yesterday, I felt bad for making her scared.
