At that moment, Meera felt like dancing with relief, though the situation demanded she should act more intelligently.So giving up on her irresistible impulse, she tried to think soberly.
"What were you saying?!!"Prithvi asked again, in a cold and dangerous voice.
Uff! The Man!!!Meera thought to herself.
What is he going to DO knowing what I actually said?!!Thought Meera, rolling her eyes in exasperation.
Is he going to write a thesis on it?! Or a Biography of a thief with his dialogues? Or maybe an article on THE THIEVES OF BARAGAON?!!Meera went on thinking with irritation.
Prithvi suddenly gave her a hard shake, which made Meera's head spin with the strength of it.
"I ASKED-"
"I heard very clearly what you have asked. I'm not deaf! With that loud voice of yours, I'm sure the entire Baragaon village must be standing outside your front door right now, eagerly awaiting to hear WHAT I had said!"Snapped out Meera with irritation.
Prithvi's eyes rounded in shock on hearing a female voice..
"Wait a second! Are you a female thief?!"He exclaimed out.
Does this guy really have a brain, or what?!Meera thought in exasperation.
"No.I'm a male thief with a female voice. "She replied sarcastically.
And on seeing Prithvi's furious expression, she belatedly placed her hand on her mouth, to stop her words from coming out.But the damage was already done.
Does he plan to pin me to the wall with nails or hang me?!! Is he looking for hooks?!!Thought a scared Meera, as gory images of all the horror movies she had ever watched,flashed into her mind.
When he was sure, she was still, Prithvi turned to the bedside table, and again started searching for something...
"Found you! Finally!"He heaved out a sigh of relief, while at the same time he turned on the bedside lamps...
Oh! So he was looking for the light switch?!!Realised a finally relieved Meera.
But why?!!She was wondering, when Prithvi suddenly stood up. And out of scare, Meera took a step back...
Prithvi stared on amazed, as a cascade of dark, beautiful, soft hair, fell free in a wild array around a face, so beautiful, and so ethereal that it haunted his dreams every night...And the cap fell down on the floor from Prithvi's numb hand...
