Sameera and Armaan's conversation now a days didn't sound too much of student teacher convo.
His playful nature and her sarcastic replies made it even easier. They suddenly realized that they were way too much comfortable with each other which was something new.
Armaan is not a kind of a guy who would act so friendly easily around any one. He had a tough past which makes him unsure about trusting people and opening but. But Sameera is different or as he feels she is.
Not like many other girls she is from a lavish background as everyone knew, still she wasn't addicted to the luxuries. Girls usually grown up in such rich family's expect a lot from someone they chose to spend time with or to phase it in a right way date them.
Her ditching a expenses coffee shop and taking him to a very casual yet beautiful place tells a lot about her and her personality. And Armaan sensed it.
He was sure that she is not someone she shows the world who she is. Like people are scared from her. Her being rich and influential or the aura of domination which she carried around. The strong shell she puts up felt as some facade to him and he was ready to break it and know more.
Sameera felt weirdly free around him. No need to put up some strong I don't give a damn kinda wall when she's around him. And the fact that she wasn't able to lie around him was scaring her off. She isn't able to understand that is it her inability to act fake around him or the need to hide something from him never came up.
All of a sudden she finds a growing friendship with someone which she wasn't able to control. And mainly that someone being her professor. The point which she is tried of feeding her brain with. When ever she's around him the art of holding back just goes away.
It's Sunday night now. Armaan is on the dinning table with the dean or as Sameera called him Bosco.
Armaan was one of his old and dear student to him. He invited him to dinner as he know Armaan wouldn't have many friends in this new city.
Dinner was done by a lot of talking. Armaan was setting up the dishes into the dishwasher and Bosco was pulling out some dessert from the freezer.
Ding ding, the door bell rings. Bosco goes to the door and open it.
There stood Sammy with bottel of champagne and regular riding jacket.
"Boss how's your weekend going, however it's going I don't mind coz I m here to ruin it." Sameera says with a huge grin.
"Ohh so finally you found the way to this old man's house." He says sarcastically and moves aside to let her in.
"Excuse me Mr I am so busy it's you who made up excuses. And by the way I heard you got the news." She say walking into the living room
"So that's the reason you are here then" he says following her.
"Actually consider this as a personal invitation-" as she reaches the dining table to place the bottle she realizes there some one else in there.
"Ops you had guest. I guess I will-"
"No need it's okay he is family." And by now Armaan finishes off the work at kitchen and walks to the dining area.
Armaan was amused watching her here and yes with a bottle of champagne in hand.
"Oh hi" Sameera says keeping the bottle on the table "hope I am not disturbing any secret meeting on how to smuggle college kids." She said with giggle.
"You actually did Sam." Bosco said playfully.
"Oh okay o don't mind you can just continue imagining am not here."she said while going to pick some glasses for them.
"I guess, not a teatotler right professor?"
"Gentleman over here is kinda of a wine guy." Bosco says as both of the men move to the living area.
"Ohh I see." She says raising eyebrows teasing him for the drunken encounter.
But Armaan wasn't a kind of guy to ignore a challenge. "How come here you had a date right." He said acting casually.
"Back to the game Sam?"
"Coaches don't play, red or white professor?" She says shoving off Bosco reaction.
"Red."
Sameera walked into the living room holding two bottles and two glasses for each of them.
Armaan reaches out to help and grabs the bottles.
"Oh don't act those goody two shoes just because one of your professor." In a teasing tone.
"Aah like seriously care about impressions need to drive early tomorrow can't afford a hangover and you enjoy your baby drinks " she says raising eyebrows and rolling eyes While filling the glasses.
"I mailed you those plans. Anything else my highness."she says handing holding them their glasses.
"How's the date?" Armaan asks after holding for too long.
"It was kinda okayish thankfully he wasn't as creepy as Christian grey." Al of them chuckle.
"When's the second date then?" Bosco asks with genuine exictement.
"Why wanna you go out with him?"
"Shut up Sam."
"You know Bosco it's the Sethi tag they want. Not me." I say placing a pillow on my lap
"Stop making excuses, you need to try at least once." Bosco says sipping wine.
"Trust me I m in no mood for relationship counecling with my professors. Drop it. And don't you divert me for what I gate crashed your gentleman's dinner." Sameera bends forward and places her elbows on her knees.
"Just get me your passport I m booking the tickets."
"I m not gonna take part in that foolishness Sameera." Bosco says sipping his wine
Armaan sets back and watches their exchange.
"They are in love Bosco. I m not asking you to go against you thoughts on it. I m just asking to be a part of their happiness. Atleast for all those years you spent together."
"She was your mother for god sake and you are asking me to come watch that old man of yours replacing her. Leaving you behind. And all this for whom? That young golddigger of a assistant." Bosco says spilling out the posion he had against his friend getting married again.
"Bosco you're here being too harsh." She said furrowing her eyebrows pleading him to just accept the fact.
"You're being a naive little girl. That man who was there standing beside you for whole 18 years without a day spared is now three oceans away from you. Either you can't see it or you don't want to. That women stanched away your father."
"We already had all this discussion Bosco. I better be leaving now it's getting late. And that women would be soon in your cabin holding a invitation card kindly accept it without creating a scene. I beg you." Sameera said while standing and within seconds she rushed out.
Bosco was rubbing his forehead "that women freaking ruined this girl and she is still by her side."
"She isn't like this, when someone tries to get what is hers she just blows them away. You know it very well Armaan she made a hell out of your car just because she found it as a threat to her parking space." He left a sarcastic chuckle. "But when it's about her dad she just loves him too much that she don't hesitate anymore to let him go."
"She just wants them to be happy." Armaan cooed in.
"But at what cost. She is just left behind. A lonely little girl hiding behind that mask of sarcasm. These kids now a days I tell you Armaan they love being victim."
"Don't worry she is a wise, she'll be fine."
"Yeah what else we can, hoping she's fine. You few of you kids are really close to my heart and watching them like this kills."
"Trust me your students aren't as weak as you think of them."
