Chapter 101
Since I reached college I had switched off my phone. Now I switched it on to call mom.
"Mom can you help me tell how to fix my makeup. "
"The entire day you didn't call me now you are calling! I was so much worried. "
I expected something like this would happen. Anyway I'm already immuned to it.
"Sorry mom, I had switched it off but I have my performance soon. Please help me with the makeup. "
"Okay.But remember to call me up after your performance. "
"Yes mom. "
Mom started to explain. Luckily I had a hand mirror to see. She just explained to me to apply only basics. No need of applying too much and it turned out to be quite okay.
I got up but suddenly there was "zip".It was frustrating that the zipper got opened from behind. I was trying to pull that up but failed miserably. Only succeeded to put it up half way. But whom to call. Only 5 minutes left and mam would come any moment. It was really a panicky situation.
I felt a touch and heard "zip".I fell frightened. Who did that. But why I didn't reject or repulse that person. I
I heard footsteps approaching here. Mam came 2 minutes early.
" Sonnet open the door. "
With the stuffed chocolate I couldn't speak.But I can't waste my time here. I opened the door. I was still trying to swallow the chocolate.
"What are you eating? "
"Mam a chocolate that mom gave me wis.h.i.+ng me good luck. "
"Oh.See you can do makeup by yourself. You just needed some confidence and a push. But did you apply too much blusher? "
"No mam. ", I nodded.
" Actually your face is reddish. Or are you not feeling well? "
"Mam... chocolate.. Yes mam chocolate. I hurriedly snucked it in inside my mouth so.. "
"Okay don't eat much now. Rest for the time being. No need to come out for now. I will call you up. "
"Thank you mam. "
She went and I heaved a sigh of relief. I immediately shut the door. But didn't lock this time.
"Who is your mom by the way, Sunny? ", He spoke lifting one eyebrow.
"First of all you tell me what were you doing here pervert? "
"I... no.. "
I was ashamed as well as angry.
But it was only spur of the moment and I said, "No! what. You could have easily gone out or talked with me in the beginning.Atleast we know each other. Not only that, you even tried to zip... "
I was blus.h.i.+ng hard. I couldn't even look at him now. It's all his fault. Moreover, I had to lie to mam because of him. It felt awful as well as thrilling at the same time.
His ears were red and he spoke.
"Um.. sorry. I was searching something. I didn't expect that you would come here. I was about to leave without bothering you but.... "
But his shy face answered it all.
"Leave the topic. "
The atmosphere was growing further awkward. But in all these randomness I felt one thing. "My Beating Heart".
I laughed to ease the air.
" Why are you laughing? "
"Thinking about your expression when I told about mom. "
"Well today is your day I won't say a thing. All the best. "
"Thanks Sky. "
I felt awkward but at the same point of time I felt closer to him. He wore a sapphire suit with yellow b.u.t.tons on it and sapphire trousers. His costume and mine were almost matching. I had worn a sapphire ear stud. So random yet so suiting and couple like. He was looking handsome.
"Stare, stare at me Sunny. Don't worry I will be standing unless you open the door again. "
He was speaking as if he had taken an oath to find my way to dig a hole into ground and stay there.
"Who will stare at you huh! I just s.p.a.ced out. "
I let him go before mam comes. I sat on my chair. Laying as if all my energy has been drained and sighed, "Phew..., We were almost getting caught. ".
