After getting defeated by her brother in all the three sets in a row, and after shedding 100 USD as the winning amount, Akira happily started walking back towards their house. Throughout the evening that she was out, her hands were itching to text him, but she was somehow refraining herself, as she couldn't let Mike, have a hint of what was happening in the background.
Her ears were longing for his voice, while her eyes were longing for a sight of him. But little did she know that the longing in his heart was far worse than hers.
Inside a car, which was parked just a few meters away from her house, he was waiting for her to arrive back at her home. The moment he saw them walking back together, laughing happily in a jolly mood, he was ecstatic. He saw her dressed up in a bright color dress after God knows how many days.
