"Am I in the Alien land?" she asked herself.., leaving Tazz amused
"Hellooooo, hellooo, Is any Alien there?" she shouted aloud, walking towards the open fields, still unaware of the fact that Tazz stood right behind her, she bought both hands to her mouth and cupped around her lips
"Alien, Mr. Alien, you there?" Hellooooo," she yelled, "Mr. Alien," suddenly her voice pitch dropped, "You there?, getting no response, she sighed with a heavy heart and almost mewled "Uummmm," whining like a puppy "not there.. even Aliens aren't there? no one's there, nobody , NO BODY,"
she again shouted aloud as she walked further towards the field, opening her arms wide, she looked up at the sky and the stars, feeling the breeze all over her body, she felt enveloped in it, yet free
"No one's there, no Aliens,
Mahira woke up to gentle rays of sun caressing her face, she opened her eyes, albeit with great difficulty, somehow succeeding at the feat, rubbing her eyes with her hands like a little girl, she looked up at the large beautiful ceiling that had some fancy designs on it, the bed felt extra soft and cozy and the duvet didn’t feel like it belonged to her, she snuggled some more at the warmth that she felt engulfed in when suddenly reality hit and she remembered that none of these looked like how it was at her home.Horror filled her mind as she abruptly sat up on the bed, looking around, she saw the room was simplistic yet luxurious in style. The complete flooring was in chestnut brown laminated wood, straight opposite the bed on the other end of the room was a large size french window that overlooked some parts of city and then the sea, before the window were a set of ivory setee with a granite teepoy.
Tazz looked sideways, then at her, agreeing mentally that he deserved this slap.“How dare you joke with something so despicable to me?” finally a tear which had frozen in her eye just like she had rolled out as she managed to speak in a broken voice“Don’t you ever, never ever do this to me again,” she clutched the neck of his Tee shirt, tugging and pushing him hard, shaking him with her hands that still felt numb and weak, well, he was too strong for her, so it was she who was moving back and forth instead, Tazz kept looking at her with a straight face, allowing her to do as she pleased “Never, do this to me,” she said in between muffled sobs before breaking into crying, all the fear and paralysis she had felt sometime back melted like snow and poured out, her knees went weak an
Tazz headed towards the kitchen connected to the dining area looking happy and smiley‘Mr. Jindal, Good morning, I'm just getting the breakfast to the table,” Mrs. Patel, their generations old house keeper and chef was surprised to see Tazz in kitchen. She had been in this household since Tazz, Anuj and others were kids, she knew well about them and their tastes, likes and dislikes, she was surprised to see Tazz enter the kitchen as he’d never done that in past, he always waited at the table to be served.“Quick Mrs. Patel, give me some puffed rice, I want to make Poha (an Indian dish for breakfast), also some semolina, I also want to make upma,” he said in an urgent tone while looking out for some carrots, beans, chillies and peanuts“Mr. Jindal," Mrs. Patel was taken aback at the vigour Tazz di
She began alighting the stairs, looking around at the magnanimous property, Tazz’s room was on the first floor, she assumed that the room she was in was his maybe.As soon as she reached the ground floor, to her right was a large dining area, and to the left was sitting area. She walked towards the dining area looking out at the beautiful sight of soothing bamboos rhythmically surrounding a water feature all around the window of dining and kitchen area. The place was so beautifully connected to nature and natural lighting that her senses calmed instantly. She saw Anuj seated by the dining table, his back was to her, Just then her gaze fell towards the kitchen, it was an open kitchen, she stood at her spot, mouth agape at the sight that met her, Tazz was swiftly working at different things in kitchen, he chopped a bit,
Mrs. Patel realised that she blurted out something that she shouldn’t have, luckily the boys treated her like a mother figure so they wouldn’t shout or yell, but she felt embarrassed and walked away from the dining area.Anuj who was still stuck broke into laughter, “ha ha ha , ho ho ho, bro, what’s happening, I never knew you carried two swords in one sheath, bro, you’re playing with fire, I tell you bro this may le......,”“Clang”Anuj ducked in time and saved himself from being hit by the ladle that Tazz hurled at him“Bro, you have two of them, while I don’t even have one, have pity, you can't go around flinging things at me like you’re in a kinder....,”“Clang”
As they were driving out Mahira was surprised that Tazz hadn't changed and was still in the black tee and denims, ‘did he intend going to office dressed like this?.. Oh right! its a Saturday today,’ she thought looking out and around, as her attention shifted out, the car turned around a sharp bend she realised where she was, somewhere nearby the Marina Bay district, obviously, isn’t that where the rich and the mighty reside in Singapore. In past, never for once did the thought ever cross her mind that the man she dated back then and lived with and was in love with, the man who pampered her, coaxed her, cleaned their house for her, never let her do any household chores , the man who lived such simple life with her with limited outfits, actually belonged to such a rich and an influential family.‘That was right wasn’t it,’ she thought as her face soured, who’d know it bette
"Mr. Jindal, something's not right,"Mahira panicked as she didn’t see Anuj’s car tailing them anymore, Tazz looked at her further amused, since when had she become so vulnerable, he thought as he watched her antics, his face had a smile on him, she looked beautiful even when scared“Mr. Jindal, what are you smiling at, we might’ve got kidnapped,” she whispered to him cautiously, bobbing her head down to keep low volume, pulling him nearer“What? why would anyone kidnap us?” he had a big amused smile on his face, she really had become a scare goat he thought“Not us, its you they’re after maybe, look, Anuj’s car is no where to be seen either, neither is this the route that leads to our office, and these.. these roads are strange an
Mahira completely ignored the two people who just ended making a fool out of her, looking around her to grab all her self defence jewellery, she looked at Tazz’s hands which still held the pepper spray and the hair pin given by her, she looked at him shamelessly laughing back at her, she was annoyed to the T, roughly snatching back both her precious items from his hands, she put everything back into her purse, arranging it in systematic way, not just dumping them. Then she looked ahead in nowhere in particular, crossed her arms across her chest and pulled a long hard face. Here she was worried to death thinking that they were kidnapped and Tazz was in danger, and here are these two utterly shameless brothers laughing and mocking at herTazz and Anuj stopped laughing, realising that she was not taking this in light, “Bro, I’ll go check how things are gearing up, after all you just had a great resc
