Stepping inside the mall i looked around for the newest clothes collection. Someone taps my shoulder, making me turn around and to my surprise it's him. 'Oh hey, Baby girl.' Matt winks up at me, making me giggle a couple of times. 'So, we meet again.' I say smirking and raising up my eyebrows, 'Yes we do.' He winks and takes me in a hug, i hug him back. 'Well, so what can i help you with today?' He says pouting. 'Cute.' I chuckle. 'We don't sell cute, is that even a clothing item?' I laugh at his joke and he pats my head, 'Well Matt, i need some new jeans and crop tops.' I say, 'Well, come.' He says and i followed him.
After like an hour and a half i was finally done with my shopping. After Thanking Matt for helping me around choosing and shopping i paid for my expenses and grabbing the bags in my hands i went out and called for a cab.
A car stopped in front of me and when i looked closely it was Jalal sitting behind, he opened the door and came out. I pretended as if everything's fine. The kiss scene flashed in my mind, pissing me even more off. Liar.
'You came alone?' He asked as he eyed the shopping bags in my hand. I literally refrained myself from rolling my eyes and said, 'I guess so!' And i managed to put up a small smile. His eye brows creased perfectly. 'Okay, come sit inside.' He ordered, who he think is he ? I won't do as he orders me to do.
Upon seeing that i didn't reacted to his order and looks at me questioningly 'I think you didn't hear, so get inside i'll drop you.' Oh no really, there's no need for this formality, i'm not going to get trapped in your gentleman traps anymore so yeah piss off.. 'Thank you so much Jalal, but i don't want to take more favors from you as much as already i am taking but staying in your home.' He looked stunned for a moment until his eyes went dark and he looked fiercely strong. 'Jodha, without arguing just get in the car.' He ordered once again in dangerously low voice.
'Look if you think i'm going to get scared...' He didn't even let me complete my sentence and held my wrist tightly, jerking me in the car. 'Jalal.. the hell, who do you think you are..' I was once again stopped in the middle of my sentence because he closed the car door loudly, making me jump in my seat.
He comes and sits on the other side and instructs the driver to get us home.
The ride to home was awkwardly silent, none of us spoke a word but i felt him stealing angry glances my way and so did i gave him some pissed off stares and i'm quite sure he saw those and is quite aware that i'm pissed off. Serves you right.
Who do you think you are to him that you're showing him that you're piss off and blah blah. Actually why do you even care about what he is doing? Whether he kisses someone or f**k them,isn't that none of your business?
My sub-conscious strikes, well that's a good point made there. Why do i even care? It's not like me and him are a thing.. Then why do i care?
Because you like him.
I groaned at my sub conscious. Like huh? My foot. I rolled my eyes. No i do not like him and i'm quite sure about it..
Oh really? Then why were you burning when you saw him kissing someone in the coffee shop?
I don't know so piss off.
Finally the awkward car ride came to an end as we reached our destination. Without waiting for Jalal to open my door i opened it myself and ran inside, Jalal following me inside, i can hear his foot steps coming nearer and nearer as my heart took up speed and started drumming hard against my chest.
'Jodha stop..' Jalal hissed loudly. My feet automatically stopped, his voice was dangerously commanding. I stood still until he came and stood in front of me. He took a long sigh and murmured something under his breath which i couldn't catch, 'What have gotten into you?' He shouted.
Oh well, i took a step back. He have never been this loud and angry, at least not in these days that i've known him in, it's not like i know him since i opened my eyes.
'I...I..jus..t..' I stuttered hesitantly. I look down at my crossed fingers, okay think something dumb Jodha.. Think something.
Oh you know i am just mad because i was eating pastries and someone hit me and it fell so i was pissed.
Oh really? Wow, that's amazing. My sub-conscious rolled her eyes. It's not a bad idea, i defended myself. Food is always love you know, so it's not a bad gate away chance, aye food, i love pastries though, you know those full chocolate pastries stuffed with chocolate chip cookies? Aye, they're life.
Wait, where am i going with that?
He raised his eyebrows in a questioning expression, 'Have no answer Miss Rajput?' Oh so we're back to being formal, well okay, two can play this game. 'Actually Mr. Mohammad, i think it is sincerely my wish what do i decide to do with my life, it's my wish if i really want to take a ride from you or not, you are no one to force me and i think i'm quite grown up to take decisions for myself.' I said with a proud smirk on my face, tit for tat it is.
Jalal looked shocked for a moment but his shock-ness was immediately replaced with a big smirk on his face, okay really? What was he thinking? 'Honestly you think you're grown up enough to handle yourself? I mean, if i hadn't saved you the other day from your friend, then i guess you might have woke up on his bed the next day.'
Oh really? So now you're showing off.
'To be really honest with you Mr. Mohammad, i really didn't asked you to come and help me, i didn't asked you to be my savior, so whatever you did, you did it by your wish, not because i asked you.' I crossed my arms over my chest now.
He muttered something under his breath again which pissed me off, 'You know what Mr. Mohammad? If you want to say something to me or even curse or swear me, do it on my wish not as a whisper to yourself, i'd really appreciate that, and i'd be very pleased to know what you really think about me and what comments do you pass on me.' I said with a fake smile, the smile reaching my ears.
He chuckled for a moment before saying, 'You honestly want to know what i just said?' He raised his brows again. 'Of course.' I said even without thinking.
'If you were mine Jodha, then you wouldn't have dared to speak all this whatever you spoke, and if you did, i would have spanked you. So, you're lucky you're not.'
Butterflies fluttered in my belly making my stomach clench tightly. Why does his statement look so...intimidating?
'Dominant much, huh?' I smirked.
'Yes, Miss Rajput.' he muttered.
I walked pass him refraining from carrying on the conversation any further. I walked into my room and kept all the shopping bags on my bed, taking out clothes and hanging them in the closet.
Who the f**king hell he think he is? I mean alright, i'm living in his house, but that's not my wish. I honestly couldn't stay here anymore, it's about my self respect. Whoaaa.. Wait there kid, now where does this self respect come from all of a sudden? You know what? You need to shut the f**king hell up before i murder you, i groaned at my sub-conscious. I mean honestly, i am not his servant or anything that i'll follow all his rules. It's my life, i'm an adult, i can do whatever the f**k i want, just like he can kiss whoever he want.. Oh ho sweetie, so it's all about that kiss huh? I thought you said you didn't care, then why do i smell a burning's smell.. Oh really? It's you who's burning, i snapped back at my sub-conscious. Nah sweetie, that's you, you're jealous that he was kissing someone else and not you, you're jealous about that kiss, you're jealous because you like him and don't even try to deny this because you've admitted it yourself that you like him..
