Chapter 12- Bold Ms. Gauri

538 53 15
                                    

I can sense she is nervously looking at the road side and rubbing Sneha's hand continuously.

"Papa... I want to have ice cream" sneha said pointing out to a random store.

"Let's have something then" I said driving into the car park while stealing glances at her.

"Let's go baby"

"Hmm you guys carry on and take your time" she said.

"Aren't you coming"

"I am not a ice cream fan" she said in a clumsy tone moving uncomfortably.

"But I love ice cream" Sneha clapped her hands with an excitement.

"Okey" I wanted to ask her to come.. I wanted her to be there with me and sneha. But words are not coming out as I expected.

"You should have ask her to Come Princess" I said after getting her out from the car.

"Ms. Gauri .... Papa asked you to come" Sneha scream before I can think of anything to stop her.

She came out instantly with a smile. I don't know whether she has waited to hear "Papa asked" from sneha to come out.

"I want to have a strawberry ice cream" she said with a smile while giving a side hug to Sneha.

"Mmm but you're not a ice cream fan" I asked.

"I became one" She smiled. That smile Won't wipe out from my mind.
...............................
"Thank you for the lift baby" she said to Sneha with a soft kiss. "Thank you Mr Oberoi. Bye"

"Bye"

"Papa let's go" Sneha said waving her tiny hands at me. I have been watching at Ms. Gauri walking towards her house. I immediately stepped out from the Car.

"Ms. Gauri....." she stopped but not turned back to face me.

"I have to say something" I said. She looked at me with a curious look.
"Mmmm Thank you for today. Thank you for being with Sneha"

"It's my duty Mr. Oberoi, No need to Thank"

"Thank you for the card" I said remembering mother's day card.

"It's my duty Mr. Oberoi, No need to Thank" She said smiling mischievously.

She is too cute to handle. Knowingly or unknowingly I took small steps towards her. She stood there with the same smile.

"Thank you" I whispered.

"For what" She said in a mere whisper looking at my eyes. I closed the gap by taking another step but she stood there without moving back.
For the first time in my life , uncontrollable feelings topped up and wanted to kiss her badly.

My hand touched her silky cheeks. I wanted to whisper to her ears "Thank you for coming into my life. Please come with me" somehow I ended up kissing her earlobe. She stiffened and tightly holds my shirt.

Blissful smile is on her face. She tightened her hold on me with closed eyes. I am worried about my forward move. This is not the way to express feelings specifically not amid public and in front of my daughter. I moved back uncomfortably.

"Don't"

"What"

"Do finish what have you started"

"Sorry? "

"Don't say that was a mistake" she is so bold. She pulled me back and touched my lips intensely with her rosy soft lips.

Take my heart; I'll give it with ease.
Take my hand and walk this journey with me.
Take these scars and heal them all up.
Take these fears and make them vanish when things get tough.
Take this smile and make it stretch so wide.
Take these arms and hold me oh so tight.
Take these feelings and make them real.
At the end, show me how to feel.
