Chapter 25

Chapter - 25

"Let's just give a break for this praising thing. I feel overwhelmed by your complements" sid said proudly after a few minutes of roli's continuous praisings.

Roli rolled her eyes with a sigh as she tried to avoid his arrogant smirk. 

"I'm hungry now. Go cook something for me" sid said in an ordering tone. 

"What?" Roli was shocked. Never had she ever did cooking in her lifetime, except coffee. "I can't cook. I don't know" roli continued in a low voice. 

"Then may I know what do you do in kitchen most of the times with maa" sid said rather sarcastically.

"I just talk to her while she cooks" roli replied, keeping her gaze down. 

"Yes, talking. That's the only thing you can do" roli pouted at his taunt. 

"It's fine if you can't cook. I'll go out to eat" sid got up from the couch. 

"I too will come with you" roli too got off of the bed.

"Wait. When did I ask you to come?" Sid turned to her and asked arrogantly. While roli stopped with a pout.

"We can do one thing. If you cook then I don't need to go anywhere and I'll stay here with you" sid said sliding his hands in his jeans pockets. 

"I told you I don't know cooking" roli felt like crying. 

"Then you be at home alone, I'll go out" sid replied, acting cold.

"No need. I'll do something" roli strode out of the room. Sid, with a victorious smile, followed her. 

Reaching kitchen, roli felt like she'd faint with anxiety. She took out her phone and searched for some simple recipes on internet. 

"Not bad. You got brain too" sid entered into kitchen as he found her watching cooking videos. 

"Don't disturb me" roli looked focused. 

Sid raised his eyebrows as he looked how interestedly she was watching those videos. 

Not so later, roli started cooking. While sid stayed back in kitchen without disturbing her. He played with his phone as she continued to cook. 

A few minutes later, sid got a phone call. He checked on roli and found her still engaged in her cooking activity. He went out to attend the call. 

Roli stirred the ingredients she added into the bowl. Then she directly dumped the rice, which she kept for soaking in water into the bowl, without separating the water from it. But the oil content she had added in the beginning being too much, it exploded when she added the water contained rice. And it splattered out of the bowl and some got on roli's hand too. 

"Ahhh..." Roli cried out of pain as the hot oil burned her hands. 

Hearing her shout, sid quickly rushed into kitchen. "Roli, what happened?" He reached her and held her hand, which turned red.

"What did you do?" Sid left her and moved towards stove to turn it off. 

"You added water into hot oil? Are you out of your mind? I knew you'd do such stupid thing and that's why I was here in kitchen all this while. I just left for a moment and look what you've done to yourself" sid yelled at her in anger or mostly concern. 

"I told you I don't know cooking but it was you who forced me to do" roli said with tears as she blown air on her hands in order to reduce the pain. 

Sid felt like as if his heart was being pricked with a dagger. He moved towards her and wrapping his arms around her, took her to hall.

He made her to sit in sofa and went to bring first aid kit. 

"I don't want. It hurts" roli took her hand away as sid tried to apply ointment. 

"It won't heal if you don't take medicine" sid tried to take her hand.

"It'll heal by time. It hurts if I apply ointment" roli was still in denial to take medicine.

"It won't hurt, roli" sid calmly tried to persuade her, who was acting like a stubborn kid. 

But, still roli wasn't ready to take medicine. And without any other option, sid tried his ultimate weapon.
