CH 6

She sat down next to me, slowly sipping her coffee.

'How's the coffee?' she asked me after a couple of minutes of silence.

'It's nice,' I replied, looking up at her. She was playing around with her drink, looking away from me in shyness. She knew I was looking at her, and she began smiling to herself.

She brushed the hair falling on her face over her ears with her slender fingers. It made her look so beautiful. A small smile crept over my face just looking at her.

'What are you smiling at?' she asked me, making eye contact for a split second before returning her gaze into the coffee mug.

'I love the way you do that...'

'Do what?' she asked, drinking her coffee and brushing her hair over her ears again.

'That!' I exclaimed. 'The way you move your hair over your ears... It makes me wanna kiss you right away.'

She just giggled and got back to her drink. I leaned into her and abruptly kissed her on her cheek.

She threw me a surprised look.

'I told you it made me want to kiss you,' I said and gulped down the rest of my coffee.

She held her hand out for the empty coffee cup. I placed my empty cup in her hands and kissed her again.

'You've got to stop doing that!' she said, smiling at me.

After we finished our coffee, she gave me a paracetamol and sent me back to bed. The tablet was starting to work its way into my system, and the thought of Navya taking care of me was reassuring, so I fell into a deep sleep the moment my head touched the pillow.


I woke up 4 hours later, feeling thirsty. I drowsily walked into the kitchen to get some water. A nice aroma was wafting through the air, getting stronger as I walked towards the kitchen. Inside the kitchen, I found Navya cooking my lunch.

'Hey sleepy head!' she greeted me as I entered the kitchen. 'How are you feeling now?' she asked and walked up to me without waiting for an answer. She checked for a temperature by feeling my forehead.

'Feeling better now. Thanks,' I said, still dazed. 'What are you still doing here?' I asked, slowly coming back to my senses.

'Making you lunch,' she said, getting busy at the stove. 'Just ten more minutes.'

'Didn't my mom make any?' I asked her.

'Oh. There's a note on the fridge for you. And while you're at it, will you go freshen up? Lunch is almost ready.'

I was also feeling hungry, so I went into the bathroom to wash my face.

My mom had stuck a note on the fridge apologising for not being able to fix my lunch, and asking me to eat out.

'I figured it would be best for a person in your condition to eat home-cooked meals,' Navya said when she saw me reading the note. 'I hope you don't mind.'


I looked up at Navya. She was working in front of a hot stove. She had tied her hair into a crude knot and was constantly pushing away the hair that was falling over her face with the back of her hand. Her figure-hugging t-shirt reproduced the shape of her perky breasts. Her skirt was just below her knees, giving me a full view of her beautiful legs. Her thin silver anklet made her legs look even more beautiful.

I walked up to her like I was in a trance and hugged her gently from behind, with my hands across her waist. She shuddered at my touch but didn't say anything.

'I think I'm falling in love with you,'

I whispered into her ear.

She switched the stove off and turned around to face me. 'I kinda figured that out already,' she said, placing her hands around my neck.

I gazed into her lovely moist eyes and lost myself in them. I could feel her warm breath over my chin. I could see her lips quiver with anticipation.

She closed her eyes, as if surrendering to me, and I involuntarily moved closer to her and sealed her lips with mine. Initially, I started to kiss her sweet lips. I began to tease her by gently breaking off the kiss every few seconds and immediately resuming it. I gently slid my tongue into her slightly parted lips and started massaging her tongue. My embrace became tighter, and I gently pulled her closer to me, pressing her body against mine. She had closed her eyes and began to respond, mimicking my moves. I slowly guided her, pinning her against a wall, and continued to kiss her. My hands involuntarily started moving south and...

'RINGG...' 'RINGG...' my stupid phone began to ring. Both of us panicked and pulled away from the kiss.
