Is it what I think?

Chapter 2

BABI POV

He dragged me in the corner and pinned me towards the wall said, “Shhh! If somebody hears, I will be in trouble.”

He was covering my mouth with his left hand. I removed his hand and patted his head “then don’t do such things besides it doesn’t make you look cool at all.”

“Ok I will cut it down”

“Why did you start it in first place I don’t understand?” I asked him. The kid I saw growing up is so big and taller than me is now smoking and stuff makes me worried.

“Off course you will say no reason is good enough to smoke and all that bullshit but you won’t understand” he told while giving me a look.

“I am just worried. The amount of cigerattes you smoke in a day is concerning. Leave it let’s go they are waiting for us”

“Not me, only you. It’s only you who cares for me”

“That’s not true you know that, right? Now stop with those sad statements and let’s go”

We started walking again and reached the dinner table.

Aunt was waiting for us. She said, “This kid is the reason of my stress. When will you grow up? It’s my first time seeing you today. Now sit down at table quickly it’s already late. Sweaty you also sit down”

I saw an empty chair near the table beside Josh so I sat there. It was almost eleven thirty pm, I was getting stressed about papa. Josh told me,” don’t worry I have already asked mom to talk to you father. You are staying here” he told me with jubilant face.

“Why would you do that? I was planning to go home. Am not a kid anymore.”

“Who said you are kid. I just wanted you to stay here tonight. Come on it’s been so long”

“You…….” I was about to speak but aunt started to say something “sweaty I have talked to your father and told him that you will be  staying here tonight don’t worry

“Thanks” this was all I could say. Josh knew I wouldn’t be able to say no to aunt that’s why he used this trick.

Uncle was not here tonight that’s why it was so noisy otherwise it’s always silent while having food. “Where is uncle?” I asked aunt

“Ahh! He went out for few days for some work. I am tired finish up quickly.”

 Suddenly Josh held my hand under the table. I almost chocked to my food.

Joshua passed me water, I tried to free my hand but he was holding it so tightly that I failed. I had to use my hand to take water while coughing. That jerk was smiling brightly.

He tightened the grip of his hand and it was getting difficult to eat. There were butterflies in my stomach. I was having Goosebumps and suddenly he started moving his hand slowwwly from my palm to wrist till elbow.

THUD!

I heard the sound which made Josh release my hand and saw Joshua standing with the most angry look over his face.

Aunt asked him. “Where are you going? Are you done already?”

He replied without turning back “yea I have had enough”

I also stood up and started cleaning the table.

Doesn’t worry about this stuff, Maggie will do that? You go and sleep.

“Yea go to my room wait I will come”  Josh said while finishing up.

“Don’t worry I will go in guest room bed is so small, we can’t sleep comfortably”

Without looking at his face I went quickly because I knew what he was up to.

Guest room was in the ground floor. I changed my clothes. I already have my clothes in here because it’s like my second home.

I had so many things in my mind which made hard to fall asleep but eventually it was catching up to me as I was so tired.

                                Around two Babi fell asleep. Josh came silently and laid beside Babi. he gently placed a kiss over Babi’s  lips and admired her as he knows he can’t do that yet if she is awake and then cuddled her tightly which woke Babi up. She was shocked and asked her,” What are you doing here at this hour?”

“I couldn’t sleep so I came to cuddle and sleep with you.”

“We are not eight  year old anymore you know that and what was that with the hand during dinner?”

“If you understand everything then why do you ask?  You know that you are special for and different from anybody in my life. I can’t imagine my day without you” Josh said while pulling Babi in her embrace. There wasn’t an inch left between them.

“Come on let’s sleep before anybody wakes including that asshole Joshua.”

They both were in the same bed hugging each other like always. Whenever Babi stays here , she sleeps in Josh’s room. It was first time she wasn’t there but instead he came here.

He was holding her very tightly which was taking Babi’s breath away and making her breath heavily. The only thing between them was their clothes. They were both comfortable each other since it was not their first time sleeping like that.  Inside the blanket, Josh’s legs were over Babi’s. His whole weight was over Babi. She was also too sleepy to say something to him. She could feel his breath near her neck, which was heavy.

“You really don’t feel anything?” Josh asked Babi.

“…..”

“I can that you also have something for me deep inside your heart.”

Then he moved his head up to see if she was listening, but he saw her completely passed out. He smiled and thought they already have something beautiful and he shouldn’t mess this up.

They slept soundly in each other’s embrace throwing all the worries outside the window. They too don’t realize how deeply they love each other.

Babi woke up at six. No matter how late she sleeps, she can’t sleep after six. She found Josh tightly hugging her with one hand inside her purple nighty. She silently took her hand out and woke him

“Josh wake up and go in your room before somebody sees you”

“mmmm! Five more minutes please.”

“Go now! I said go”

He woke up while yawning and pulled Babi by his hand, “please let me be like this for thirty seconds”

“You want somebody to see us like that?”

“So what somebody sees us? It’s not like it will be their first time.”

“Ok you be here am leaving.”

She left babi’s hand and said’ “fine am going in my room”

After he left, she sighed and started to dress up to leave for his home. She wanted to leave as soon as possible as she was worried about her father.

It takes about half as hour to reach her home from Josh’s home. When they shifted from Spain first, her father used to work day and night to make living he used to leave Babi at Josh’s house. That’s why Babi is comfortable their as her own house.  Her father is a single parent. He adapted Babi in her late twenty’s. They shifted here abruptly; she also does know the reason for this sudden shifting. She also has no clue about her real parents or her mother. All she knows that her father was married because her father wears wedding ring as pendant but she never had courage to ask anything about it. She is aware of the fact that she is adapted.

She reached her home, she opened the door very quietly and tip toed towards her room as she didn’t wanted to wake her papa. Suddenly she heard her father “welcome back” she got scared and turn around and hugged her father

“I missed you papa” Babi said while kissing her father

“I missed you too darling. Come on let’s eat”

“Don’t tell me you didn’t eat last night?”

“No baby I ate but very little you I can’t eat alone. Let’s leave it I’ve already prepared breakfast, your favourite bacon and chicken salad”

“Yum yum ! I can’t wait let’s eat.”

Babi doesn’t eat much of non-veg. but she loves to eat bacon chicken of her father’s hand. He owns restaurant which makes him good chef.  While eating, she took glance at the clock it was already past eight thirty. She abruptly stood up and went dashing towards the room.

“I thought you don’t have a class in the morning?”

No papa, I have to submit my assignment shit! Speaking of assignment it’s at josh’s. I forgot to bring. I have to call him”

“Don’t worry baby it’s all right”

She was about to call but then she heard honking at the door and in no time she heard josh yelling, “Come we are late”

In a hurry she wore whatever came to hand and quickly went

“Bye papa tack care.”

She saw Josh in his platinum etios and sat in the car.

“You brought my copy of assignment right?”

“Can I dare to forget?” he picked a folder from side of car and passed it to Babi.

He took a glance at Babi’s dress and made weird face. She was wearing a peach coloured small dress with pumps making her sexy and hot.

“Seriously! What’s with that face?”

“Did I say anything?”

“Don’t even think about it. I know what you have in mind”
