It doesn't always have to be a glass slipper or a kissing frog. Sometimes it takes a loopy, little hullabaloo!

----------------------------------

"I'm sure you remember the episode 'The One With The Pediatrician' from the sitcom F.R.I.E.N.D.S. where Joey chooses to bellow out the name  'MIKE' in the cafe because he had lied about setting up a date for Phoebe with some guy named Mike." she folded her arms.

"Your point being?" I raised an eyebrow at her as all of us were keenly listening to her.

"We have a name we require- Kshitij. We have a cafe right here  and I'm sure all of us are capable of yelling a name." She shrugged.

"Yeah right. That would work well. My life is a sitcom and I'm sure there is a Kshitij sitting here, waiting for us to shout his name out!" I stated sarcastically and started walking towards the service counter where Julie was still on short of hands.

"Let's try." She suggested over my shoulders. 

"Sure!" I laughed as I positioned myself behind the counter.

Putting on an apron on my large tee, I bent down to pull out a pastry from the glass showcase below for a customer waiting. I handed the pastry on a tray to that impatient customer on the other side when I heard---

"KSHITIJ!!!!!" Drishti's loud voice from the cash counter silenced the entire cafe.

I stood there frozen contemplating the recent happening. Did she just do that? All the heads in the cafe were twisted in her direction. She had a satisfactory smile on her face. The other three of my friends were as shocked as I was. But the thing that followed this hullabaloo shocked us even more-

"Yes?" A masculine voice responded from one of the tables near the reading nook.

She tried to glare, but the effect was ruined by her flushed cheeks. "I spent an hour getting ready-" "And I'll spend the next ten minutes undoing all that hard work," I promised darkly, enjoying how her breath hitched. "By the time we reach the top floor, everyone will know exactly what their boss has been up to." "You wouldn't dare," she whispered, but the spark in her eyes told me she wasn't entirely opposed to the idea. "Wouldn't I?" My thumb traced her lower lip. "Try me, princess. We still have fifteen floors to go..." Her attempt at looking scandalized was adorable. "You're enjoying this far too much." "Baby," I pressed closer, "you have no idea." My thumb traced her jawline. "Ten more floors to go. Want to see how undone I can make you look by then?" "Dev..." she tried again, those doe eyes looking up at me pleadingly. "Think about it... if you mess up my saree now, what will the staff think?" I couldn't help but laugh at her attempt at manipulation. "Nice try, princess." My fingers traced her collarbone. "But watching you try to sweet-talk your way out of this?" I leaned closer, "Only makes me want to mess you up more." "But-" she bit her lip, "I need to look presentable. Professional." Her hands smoothed over my shirt in that innocent way that drove me crazy. "You want them to take your wife seriously, don't you?" "Oh sweetheart," I chuckled darkly, "trust me, they'll take you very seriously. Especially when they see how thoroughly claimed you look. Seven floors to go..." "Dev Singh Rajwansh!" She pushed against my chest, trying to look stern. "This is completely unprofessional-" "Says the woman who's currently gripping my shirt like her life depends on it," My fingers tightened slightly in her hair, tilting her head back to expose her neck, smirking as she immediately loosened her fingers. "Five floors left, baby. Want to try scolding me again?" SAB YAHI PE JAAN LOGE KYA?..........

This book is being edited now slowly. So, read at your own risk!!!!! As she turned the corner, she heard his deep voice whispering in her ear, "Do you really think you can escape me, jaan?" Her heart skipped a beat as she felt his warm breath on her skin. She tried to calm her racing pulse, but it was no use. "Come, jaan," he said, his voice low and husky, as he slowly closed the distance between them. She shuddered at the sound of her nickname, her eyes locked on his. "Adi," she whispered, her voice barely audible. He smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners, as he pulled her into his arms. She melted into his embrace, feeling the familiar flutter in her chest. He kissed the spot where his name was tattooed on her neck, and she moaned softly, the slow burn of emotions igniting within her.

"I can consider your request," he finally replied, causing her face to light up with hope. The weight of her desperation seemed to lift momentarily, replaced by a glimmer of possibility. But then, Kabir paused, making her heart sink. "On one condition," he added, his voice low and serious. The room suddenly felt suffocating, as if the air had been sucked out, leaving only tension and uncertainty. "Finish what we started the other day." His words hung in the air, heavy with unspoken desires and unfinished business. Kiara furrowed her brows, confusion evident on her face. "What do you mean?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly. Her mind raced, desperately trying to piece together the fragments of their shared history. Kabir leaned in closer, whispering into her ear. "Spend the night here," he said, his words sending a shockwave through her body. Her eyes widened in disbelief, unable to digest what she was hearing. The room seemed to spin, blurring the boundaries between reality and fantasy. She had never expected this twist in their complicated relationship.

She had come to Kabir to mend things between him and her best friend, Maya, but now he was suggesting something completely unexpected. Her mind raced, torn between the fear of crossing boundaries and the intoxicating allure of the unknown. Should she give in to her desires, risking everything she held dear? Or should she walk away, preserving the fragile equilibrium of their lives? story will updated every week
