PART 11: Rising Heartbeats
UGHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wanted to scream out aloud!!!..Why did God always want to balance things out..Yesterday night I was freaking out of happiness and joy and all the synonyms of that..But today morning, just as the sunrays are making their way in, here I lay in my bed as a motionless rod with a temperature burning my body and cool that's killing me..Why did I have to think of my hot macho man so much??
Today morning when Nikki came to wake me up, she found me shivering with goose bumps decorating my arms and my forehead emitting heat uncontrollably..I so shouldn't have stared at my macho man in the rain after he dropped me back in the hostel..God..I lost my chance of having a glimpse of him today..But I was glad that this happened in one way..I din't if I could face him properly atleast not after what happened last night..Its just been an hour since the others left but I have already starting counting time..I couldn't count even count something sensible like stars for the simple reason it wasn't night..I was still in my mickey mouse top which was as always, oversize for me..and my loose checked pyjamas..I wanted to get up and change but sickness makes you lazy..I had a tough picking myself up for brushing and washing my face..Hmm..But my blanket is not such a bad company..
*tring tong*
"Uff'..Why did those sellers have to always come to disturb??? I lazily dragged myself least bothering to tie up loose hair that was falling across my ears and painting my forehead..
"Ridz..You OK", his voice floated right into my head..
WHAT WAS HE DOING HERE???
"Ridz..kuch to bolo..."
I realized I was still standing as still as possible at the doorstep..As confused as I was my eyes couldn't believe what it saw..I loved the sight of him in front of me..
"Tum Yahaan Kya Kar rahe ho???", I was such an idiot..I knew very well I wanted him..I wanted his presence..And yet I ask him such a stupid question..
"Coz your not picking up your cell..Anjie was worried..but since she had a surgery asked me to come..", came his answer..
"Sorry..i switched it off..", I told him sheepishly..I had switched it off since I dint want people calling me and asking me every now and then how i was..They actually expect me to tell a dishonest "i am fine" when I was soo not fine..
"Can I come in???"
Oh god..was I still standing at the doorstep..I called him in..
He came in and I closed the door..He looked at me top to bottom making me conscious of myself..O crap..How weird was I???My hair was at its worst..and my mickey mouse shirt would definitely make him tease him..O crap crap crap..I hated his teasing..And now I just invited it for myself..He began laughing holding his stomach..
"Whats soo funny??", I said like a baby..If my babyish voice would at least stop him from making fun of me..
"Dont even try acting all cutie cutie with me", he told me reading my mouth..My mouth went wide open..How on earth did he know???
"Arre Ridz..Shut it..makhi andar jaaoongi", he continued his laughing, although I shut my mouth involutarily..
I pouted and went and sat in the sofa..
He followed me and sat next to me..
"Acha sorry sorry..maaf kar do na..", he begged controlling those loud laughs of his..
"Nahi.."
"Please"
"NO.."
"Please"
"NO.."
"Pleaseee.."
"Maine kaha nooo"
"Ok then maaf nahi karna toh..toh.mujhe sari doo.."
"WHATTT???"
NOOO he began the teasing session once more..UGH..best to forgive him..
"Ok ok.."
"Really mujhe sari dunga???"
"NOOO..i meant ok i forgive.."
"Chi..I was expecting a sari..but anyways maaf hi abhi chahiye.."
"Armaan..enough"
He giggled..and then looked into my eyes to check if he was really forgiven..Apparently he was..and he seemed very happy about it..
"Acha bol..Hows you??", with that he placed his hand on my forehead and my neck..
"Theek Hoon"..
"No you are not okay..You have temperature..Did you take medicines??"
"Ya.."
"No you dint..dont lie to me Ridhima.."
"Ok fine..nahi khaya..woh khatti medicine..eewww..who will eat..??"
"Ridz, I cant believe you are saying that being a doctor.."
"Yeah right..doctor hoon lekin insaan toh hai na"
"Mujhe shak hai"
"Armaaann"
"Arre dont screamm..warna your throat also will go.."
"Its already gone..what more to go..". It was true..My throat was aching badly but thankfully my voice wasnt affected..But I knew when I got colds..my throat is bound to be in trouble.
"What???And you dint tell me yet??". He suddenly became all doctorish..Checking me out like I was a real patient..He dint even let me speak after that..Like he took all power of my body..But in one way I was happy..This was the best time pass..
"Its gonna be horrible if you dont take care", he announced..
"okok..dhyan rakhungi..", and obviously my tone indicated otherwise..
"Ya right..like I am going to let you with that..I am staying here till the girls get back..", he proclaimed..
"WHAT??? OOO NOOO",I dint mind him being here..but if he was here trying to boss around me..making me eat pukish medicines or even worse giving me injections..I would rather be alone killing time..
" O yes..", he said wickedly..
Like I expected he forced me to have medicines that I couldn't even lay my eyes upon..He threatened me of giving me injections to get me eating those stuff..He wasnt bad after that..Played scramble with me..but he is such a cheater..Just cannot accept that I won..And then he made lunch for me..Nothing big..Just a light one to keep ourselves filled..After that it was a fight..The biggest ever..We fought for the remote..God he was a cricket maniac and I just hateddd cricket..i wanted to watch Dil Toh Pagal Hai..HE would change the channel with the remote and I would change it with the TV options..Like I am going to let him win so easily..We fought and fought till we decided we would watch each of them for 15 mins..If i bore with cricket for 15 minutes..Then he would bear with DTPH for 15 minutes..To my extreme embarrassment it was the Aur Paas scene playing..I felt odd and felt completely off guard watching it with him..He was liberal to me after that and let me watch the entire movie..But I felt I should have stuck with cricket..Cricket was so much better than blushing non stop..
