Part 6

When she entered her home, she was deep in thought, her eyes were swollen and her heart empty. She was feeling like an empty vessel, it was only nine at night, but it seemed that it was darkness all over, felt like there was no one, her Amma and Appa were who sitting in the dining area were seemed to have been disappeared for a moment, and she very unlike herself rushed to her room, closing the door behind and immersed her face in cushions, while laying down.

The tears kept on running down, nothing seemed to diminish the pain she was going through, perhaps she was wishing for the impossible, may be this pain was more because she knew the truth of her never getting anyone in her life so special, who would take her despite of her every shortcoming.

Why life never turns out the way one wants it to? Why it is always dissatisfying? Why can't HER life be the way she wanted, why she can't get a love filled life, why can't she get someone who would love her for what she is? Why can she not get a man who would despite everything fight to be with her...? Why can't she be a part of a great love story?

It was almost one at night, when she her tears stopped, she knew that her Amma-Appa were worried for her, she knew that for they had already come far to many times at her room door and had returned after getting her unconvincing response, "I am fine, just tired, I am going to sleep." Perhaps, she thought they knew that she was upset because of that Douche-bag! Her throat was hurting... she wanted water. She stood up, her cheeks still wet because of tears, she went in the kitchen and returned with a chilled bottle from the fridge. Her stomach grumbled, she was hungry, but she didn't felt like eating Idli, not today when she was hurt and sad. She wanted Ice-cream, She wanted a counter food and this was it. But she knew better, perhaps this was insane, she had no one today to get her some, such wishes are for those, she thought who have a lovers. She slumped on bed as fresh tears made their way down her cheeks, her heart clenched in fresh agony. She knew it was the truth, that she was alone, but it hurt.

It was then her cell phone rang.

She saw the name flashing and picked up immediately, for a moment she forgot that she was in pain a moment ago.

"Hello, Good evening Sir." She said.

"Which file sir? No, but I kept in... oh it's with me!"

"Do you need it now? But sir it's quite late... No I wasn't sleeping... I was... actually...reading yes..."

"What!!... Okay sir... You should have told me that you are outside... I am sorry for keeping you waiting... I am running... I mean I am co..ming.." and this was last thing she said when she quickly hanged up the call, while his last voice that she heard was of his chuckling... and she didn't know why... but she liked that sound very much!

She came down running, and saw a SUV standing just outside, while he was there, in all glory wearing tracks and red T-shirt, that were giving him much younger look.

Her steps halted when she saw him standing there, she was surprised, that would be an understatement. She was infact mesmerized finding him looking like that, it was perhaps the first time that she was seeing him in casual wears, and quite frankly he was looking anything but a CEO!

Her stomach churned in anticipation, she didn't know what to expect, she just wanted to keep looking at him, and then she took a deep breath and walked towards him, file in hand.

"Go..od Evening Sir." Was all she could say.

Good evening Miss Iyer, I hope I didn't disturbed you?" he asked, scrutinizing her face.

"No... off course not..." she replied.

"Are you alright?" he asked after a moment of hesitation.

And almost immediately her hand flew to her face as if checking for wetness, but finding none she looked at him confused.

"It's your eyes Ishita... Have you being crying?" he asked, the worry in his voice made her heart flutter.

"Actually... It's nothing... I was just reading this silly Nicholas sparks and... you know how corny they are..." she giggled a very fake and empty.

"Really?" he asked and then extended his hand said, "File?"

"Yea..h..." she answered distracted, mildly disappointed with the turn of the subject. Perhaps she wanted someone to ask If she was okay...?'; someone to probe her for answers, someone to tirelessly poke nose in her matters, someone to care... like she did with others...

She was disappointed with everything, everyone, her life mainly. There was not a single person with whom she could share her fears, her pain, no one with whom she could just sit and feel complete, and fearless.

The anxiety increased, and she was about to turn and walk away when her stomach grumbled again.

"Didn't had dinner?" he asked, while her back was to him.

She heard him coming near; she looked from corner of her eye him stopping a few steps away from her... and then he continued, "... I know a place, If you want... I mean... we can..."

She looked up at him surprised, and he said clearing the air, "I know It's not Nicholas Sparks...If you trust me then come with me... Please."

She reluctantly nodded, as a fresh tear made its way down her cheek.

They walked up to the SUV, he opened the door like a true gentleman and came around and settled himself in driver's seat, and turned towards her half way and instructed, "Wear the seat belt..." as he did fasten himself, and then in one key twist they zoomed off.

~*~

"One whole wheat vegetarian lasagna, one chicken soup, two pancake pies with maple syrup and one Pinot Grigio. I think that would be enough for now, Peter." And with that Raman looked Ishita, as waiter went away, who in turn was looking at him surprised, and croaked a brow in her direction in inquisition, quite amused.

"You know his name! Do you think they would have all this...? I mean it's quite late... Don't you think?" she asked, looking around almost vacant restaurant.

"I come here often, and on second note...This is our property Ishita, it's never close for us." Raman said looking at her.

"Our property?" she asked doubtfully.

"Yes! Its property of Healthy Diets and Drinks." He replied.

"Oh", she nodded looking at him, and then around the place. It was quite exquisite, elegant and oozed of richness. This was the place where she definitely didn't fit in, especially now, in her mussed Salwar Kameez. But on serious note, everything about him, was out of her league. He was suave, chivalrous and so rich; even in his casuals he was so handsome. Why all good looking guys are out of her league? She thought sighing in hopelessness.

It was then their food arrived. She looked at the dishes and then at the waiter, with gratitude, gracing a small smile.

After the waiter was gone, she looked at him who was adding salt and pepper to his chicken soup and asked briskly, "So this is your midnight meal?"

At this he looked up and smiled a very shy smile and his cheeks dug into world's most beautiful Dimples and said, "Actually I was craving for Pancakes and maple syrup, it's kind of addiction from college days."

She just looked at him surprised, and dug into her own Veg. Lasagna dipped in cheese, taking a mouth full, "Mmm..." she slurped making an astonishingly exotic moaning sound, making his hands with pancake halfway from his mouth to stop in tracks, as he looked at her, whose eyes were closed and a cheese drop was innocently resting on bulge of her lower lip.

And then she took another mouth full, and she and she again moaned, a bit louder, relishing the creamy taste, making acutely uneasy for him to sit in a same poster, and he took a deep breath to calm down himself and divert his mind, thinking so he put every ounce of his concentration in maple syrup and pancake infront of him, while the cheese lasagna across the table kept teasing him, laughing at his plight.

"Mmm... Its sooo Tastyy... I never had anything like this..." And saying so she again moaned.

While he surrendered himself and took shelter under Pinot Grigio, taking a large swig, every-time she moaned.

After a while when she finished, he stood up and asked the waiter to pack two pies for him, after a while they were on their way to the SUV, when she asked, "You didn't pay?"

"Oh... he's going to bill me." And looked at her flustered face, and added, "I am a member here; they bill me on my membership card."

"Oh..." she nodded and then she continued, " uh and Thank-you so much... I mean for bringing me here, and for this treat."

Your treat and mine punishment!' he muttered under his breath, walking slowly with her.

"What?" she asked.

"No... nothing... that was a no problem at all, actually I was anyways going to go there, for my... I mean for you know..." he stuttered.

"...your pies and maple syrup...?" and she giggled, watching his face turn crimson with embarrassment.

He just looked at her and shook his head, knowing that he was the best JOKE of the day for her! Gosh He shouldn't have told her this, not even his mother knows about this, only Ruhi... Only she was one girl he could trust who would never laugh at him.

He dropped her to her house and looked on as she went in, turning only to wave him a "Bye" with a sweet smile, a smile that reached her eyes, that made her eyes glitter with happiness. His heart swelled knowing that he was the reason for it.

And then he sat back, as she disappeared behind her house doors.

May be he still loved her, may be this was the reason why he came here, just to know if she was fine, after Mihir's slip of tongue gave him a part of her life story, about that arse Dumping her for some unknown reason after getting engaged, and then his taunts... he just couldn't control himself from coming her to assure himself that she was okay. And Thank the Lord that he came, but now, when he knows, he won't let that arse meddle with her in anyway. He would make sure that she remains out of his reach. Least he could do is to protect her, and he would protect her.
