Chapter 43: Food court
Simran 's pov
We went to food court and sat down comfortably on sofa, we were so damn tired , specially raj he was running here and there from morning
"kya khaaoge? " , raj asked by holding the menu card
"biryani and desert", sneha replied
" konsa desert naam tho bol", raj asked her
"yaar kuch bhi meetha with biryani chalega",sneha replied
"so should I order biryani and gulaab jaamun for everyone?" , raj asked
Everyone agreed
Raj closed his eyes and relaxed himself by placing his head on the headrest , I kept looking at him, he was looking so adorable, his hair was messy, eyes little swollen may be because he was sleepy, I was adoring him with a smile on my face, sneha started the convo
"sameer is coming to pick me up", she said making us look at her in shock
" itni raat ko? kahaan jaa rahe ho tum dono?", seema asked
"pata nahi he called me that he is coming and I should be ready,he wants to take me somewhere", sneha replied
" sneha are you out your mind? tumahare mom dad ko kya bolenge hum if they ask us about you? aur ye shopping bags, ye dresses bhi tho unko dikhaana hai" , I said looking at her in surprise and shock ki how can she be so carefree
"raj, tum kuch bol kyu nahi rahe ho?" , I said and looked at Raj who was already in deep sleep, he slowly placed his head on my shoulder and held my arm lightly and snuggled close to me making me shiver and blush
"ye tho so gaya ", seema replied
" bahut thak gaya hai, jitna isne mere liye kiya hai shaayad koi saga bhai bhi nahi karta", sneha said as her eyes filled with tears, and we just nodded our heads with a smile on our faces
our order arrived
"yaar utha de usko pata nahi Theek se kuch khaaya bhi hoga ki nai", sneha said and I tried to wake him up
I slowly murmured without touching him " raj utho khaana aa gaya hai "
instead of waking up he snuggled more close to me, his one hand went on my thigh, and his face moved on crook of my neck which was covered by his jacket, making my heart beat faster
"raj please get up" , I said with a great difficultly
"simran, if you wake him like this he won't wake up till tomorrow morning, sneha said
I looked at her and said " tho kaise uthaao ? "
"yaar obviously touch karke hi uthate haina tho aise mu udhar kar ke bolegi tho usko neend mai kaise sunaayi dega " sneha said
I took my hand slowly and placed it on his face, as his face was on my shoulder now, I bit my lowerlip and spoke softly "raj utt jaayiye " I said with a great difficultly and he opened his eyes slowly , and looked at me with a smile on his face, he looked at my palm which was still on his face ,I immediately moved my hand away from there, he looked at our position, his hand was still on my thigh, he removed his hand from there, and sat up properly, he slowly said "Sorry " which was only audible to me
"khaana aa gaya, sorry wo pata nahi kaise aankh lag gayi", raj said as he started serving food for us
" raj hum kar lenge aap khaana start karo you look very tired ", I said looking at him as he smiled and nodded his head
I served food for him and added more rice for him in his plate
" itna khaa liya tho pet (stomach) nikal aa jaayega " , Raj said
"kuch nahi hota, khaa lo chup chaap ", I replied
" ahem ahem hum bhi hai bhai", anjali teased making him smile and me blush
"so are you ready to go on a surprise date", raj asked looking at sneha
" tumhe pata hai", we all asked together
"of course dost hai mera they won't hide anything from me", he said proudly
" phir tho tujhe ye bhi pata hoga surprise kya hai", sneha asked
"of course I know everything", Raj said with a smirk on his face
" then tell me" sneha said pouting cutely
"why do you think I will tell you everything", Raj asked by raising his eyebrow
"because you are my brother", sneha said proudly
"Bhai bann ke galti kardi" , Raj said as sneha glared at him angrily
"please tell na", sneha requested
" surprises are meant for surprising idiot", Raj said and sneha gave up and started eating her food quietly
"hum uncle aunty ko kya bolenge? ", I asked
" i will tell them the truth" , Raj said
"but Raj mom dad gussa karenge", sneha said
" kuch nahi kahenge I know them very well and trust me " ,he said and sneha nodded her head
After finishing the dinner we came out of the food court , it was a cold night, and quite late too as per my timing, it was 9:30 , I took my mobile and called my dad and told him that I would be late, my dad gave me some instructions and ended the call
my stomach started aching badly as we all kept walking towards the car( cramps you know the worst pain I experience every month) , I kept my hand on my abdomen, I winched in pain, suddenly someone wrapped his hand around my waist, I would have screamed or shouted if I didn't recognize the person, but I recognized it was Raj because of his Cologne /perfume
"are you okay" , he asked still wrapping his hand around my waist
I just nodded my head , though I was not okay ,my neck, back and legs started paining too
"you don't look okay to me" , he said looking at me seriously
"it's just cramps I will be fine", I said by biting my lips as I was still feeling shy that I had to share all this with him ,he removed his hand from my waist and held my hand lightly and we walked together towards his car
Raj, I called him slowly to which he hmmed
" thank you so much", I said
he stopped walking, and said " are you thanking me because I brought pads for you? "
I nodded my head by looking down shyly,
" girls should normalize boys helping them out when they are on their periods, that's the least thing we can do to help you out" he said
I was still looking down and was nodding my head, he made me look at him by lifting my chin with his index finger
" you should never get uncomfortable or feel shy infront of me aur agar tumhe thank you bolna hi hai tho special way mai bolo " he said with a little smirk on his face
I didn't understand what he meant, so I asked " kaisa special way? "
he pulled me by my waist towards him making me gasp, I looked at him in shock
"kiss me" he said
