PART 13
There was an awkward silence in the car. Nupur stared out of the window, refusing to meet his eyes. Mayank, however, felt jubilant. He had kissed her!!! Wasn't that what he had wanted to do from day one?? The feel of her lips against his was better than he had imagined. He wanted to kiss her again and again…he loved her, so he had no qualms about kissing her, but he did not know if she loved him or not. That was a big mystery. He decided to find out how she felt about him before long.
Nupur leaned back against the soft warm comfortable leather seat, but did not feel comfortable at all. The daunting possibility of what could have happened to mayank, if she had not pushed him out of the way kept haunting her. "He is safe, nothing happened to him after all" he brain told her. But, how had that heavy poker fallen down in the first place? It couldn't have fallen by itself. Then how?? Who had thrown it?? Why?? Those were the questions in her mind.
Mayank, however, was lost in warm thoughts of her lips and hair and tracing his hands up her body and-
"What do u think mayank??" asked nupur, bursting his bubble.
Mayank, looked at nupur, who was frowning in concentration, startled. What did she mean by that question?? What did he think about the kiss?? Huh…wasn't she a girl? Wasn't she supposed to be shy?? Whatever, this was Nupur Bhushan he was dealing with, who knew how her brain worked.
So he said, " I don't think it was quite right" of course kissing her wasn't right, he dint even know if she loved him or not, "but I still loved it." Crap, what the hell was he saying? So what if nupur asked embarrassing questions?? He was not supposed to answer them.
Nupur looked at him in surprise, how could he have loved almost being hit by a 10kg iron poker thrown from the 2nd floor of a castle?? He really must be in shock or he must be out of his mind.
"What are u talking about??" she asker, confused.
Mayank looked at her, puzzled, wasn't she talking about the kiss??
"What are u talking about??" he asked back, looking as bewildered as she felt.
Nupur said, " I was talking about the fact that who would have thrown a 10kg poker from the terrace of the castle??" she paused as she saw the understanding on his face, "or do u reckon it walked off the terrace on its own?" she added sarcastically.
Oh, thought mayank, she was talking about the poker; actually he owed something to the poker…they would never have kissed if it hadn't fallen…hold on, how did it fall??
Nupur looked so stressed out that he felt like lightening up the atmosphere. He said, " I don't know why it fell, but if it was a man who threw it, it was definitely because they couldn't stand the sight of me standing next to such a beautiful girl." He grinned.
Nupur blushed and looked down at her lap. Mayank leaned towards her and said in her ear, " you look gorgeous when you blush." making her blush all the more.
Smiling, mayank drove into the richer section of the village. There was an instantaneous change in their surroundings; it felt like they had traveled in time, from the olden days to the bright 21st century.
The muddy roads were replaced with concrete; big shops with shining counters replaced the grimy hovels sandwiched between haphazard, untidy huts. The small shacks gave way to big mansions. There were no shops selling stinking, rotten fish, instead, there were many shops with colourful banners selling snorkeling gear and surfboards. Mayank was instantly taken by the posh locality. Nupur, however, was indignant and angry. Mayank glanced at her, curious and said, " What happened nupur?"
" Don't u see how much the poor fishermen in the village are suffering? These rich people look at all the pain around them without any remorse and don't even care to help them flourish. I am sure they will be able to live in the same grandeur even if they donate some money to those poor souls." She burst out.
Mayank stopped the car and took her small soft hand in his big rough hands. He said, "Nupur, not everyone is as generous as you are. I am sure that some people here have less money than they appear to have. Some people are simply so conservative, superstitious or plainly mean that they cannot bear to part with money. Actually, if you look at it this way, our parents are billionaires but I still haven't seen my dad donate a penny to any needy person. So we actually can't say anything to anyone."
Nupur looked into his tender eyes and felt her anger melt away. How could anyone remain angry after looking into those heart-warming eyes? Anyways, whatever he said made perfect sense.
Nupur nodded in agreement and said, " When we get back, I am going to force my father to donate money to the needy."
"That's like my girl" mayank said and smiled.
Suddenly, so fast that she dint see it coming, the windshield broke into a thousand pieces and something hit her head, hard.
The last thing she saw before loosing consciousness was mayank's face, lying in a pool of his own blood…
And then everything went black.
