"Huh", she exclaimed.
"What? Have you forgotten your promise?", he asked.
"Um... No. I mean it would be unnecessary trouble for you. It's ok, I will eat back at my place", Akira said, as she badly wanted to get away from him.
"Fine then, I will also manage", he said and turned towards her.
"Wait here, I will get my keys and drop you home", he said and moved ahead.
"Manage? What do you mean by manage?", Akira asked.
A wide grin flashed on his face. He knew that the fish had caught the bait. He wiped away that joyous smile of his from his face and turned back and said,
"I mean my cook is not in town, so I will just manage to cook something. Or have instant noodles or order a pizza or something. Don't worry", he said, intensifying his trap.
