Embarrassed

The next morning Aisha woke up by 5:00 am as usual. She put on her sweatpants and went out for cycling for half an hour and another half an hour for jogging. Then she came back home and did some yoga for another half an hour and then went for a shower.

After coming out of the shower feeling all fresh and energetic, she lighted incense sticks and offered her prayers to god. Thereafter she put a mat on the floor and sat on it for her half an hour meditation.

She was proud of her morning routine as it had taken her immense amount of self discipline and patience to achieve it. She had experienced stress and depression during her medical college years which pushed her into meditation and yoga. Of course it had an immense effect on her mental as well as physical health.

She went downstairs for her breakfast and greeted her parents. At 10:00 am she got ready to visit the orphanage. She applied her sunscreen and her lip balm. She kept her hairs open She was wearing a crop top and bell-bottoms accompanied by her sneakers and was good to go.

When she reached there she found Jiwook leaning against his car with his arms crossed.

He was wearing a denim jacket and jeans accompanied by his black vans. He was dressed in a laid-back style and looked handsome as usual. Jiwook was two years older than her.

As he saw her he took in her appearance as she looked beautiful with her hairs untied. The reason he wore denim was because somewhere he had expected her to show up like this in some comfy clothes. And once again he couldn't help but compare her to the other women. She was really unique in her own way... Nor once did she try to make a move on him which made him less wary of her as some women were really tricky.

"Hello Mr. Ji - I mean Jiwook" she greeted him.

He bowed his head slightly in response with a smile.

"Let me greet the kids and then we are ready to go." she said as she started walking towards them.

After greeting the kids she sat in the car and fastened her seatbelt. Jiwook drove the car and at times kept stealing glances at her. She became aware of it but tried to act normal in order to not feel awkward.

They stopped near a cafe which sent out comfy vibes. The cafe had those yellow lights and wooden walls . It was a beautiful place. The cafe was filled with people . Fortunately they found a spot near the glass window from where the outside view could be seen.

Jiwook ordered cappuccino for both of them and they sat there sipping their coffee and admiring the outside view.

"So where do you work?" he asked in order to start up a conversation.

"I am a dermatologist by profession" she replied." I work in S hospital" she replied .

Soon they started having small talks where both discussed about their families and their personal lives.

Aisha showed him some funny videos of her brother to which both of them laughed heartily. Both of them had a good time. Aisha too started feeling comfortable around him.

After spending an hour talking and laughing both stood up and went for a walk as the weather was nice.

Jiwook was really happy seeing her getting comfortable around him. They went to a park and started to stroll around. As Aisha was walking she did not see the fountain pit in front of her and twisted her ankle pretty badly.

"Ouch!! " she groaned in pain.

Jiwook quickly help her sit on the nearby bench and kneeled down in front of her.

He removed her shoes and socks and gently massaged her feet.

Aisha could not help but keep staring at him as this was the first time a guy had ever touched her feet. Jiwook looked up to ask her whether she was feeling better. As soon as she met her eyes she started having a tingling sensation in her heart. Embarrassed she looked away quickly."I-I am fine." she replied and quickly moved her feet away from his hands.

She was in a dilemma as to what was happening to her....

'Have I gone crazy what's wrong with me' she thought as she facepalmed herself.
