Semua Bab Being His: Bab 71 - Bab 80

 The journey to my house is peacefully silent. No one makes a noise or tries to start a conversation. And strangely, it does not feel required at this moment either. Dhruv looks past his side of the window without spilling a word. I do the same, but my thoughts are more or less focused on our moment on the Giant wheel. It felt too magical to be true. Did I fall asleep and dream about it? I don't know. The mixed emotions induced from the incident render me silent and blondie behind... Well, he does not even fall into the context. No one can tell that he is sitting behind our seat.  Dhruv was sceptical about taking him along because it is weird. But since rules are rules, he had to. I seriously don't get the concept of having someone like him with us to keep a watch. What are we? Five year old kids? Though the fact that we went into an amusement park, and Dhruv bought a bag full of potato chips proves the above statement. He offered to give both

 Dhruv calls me at night, after I go through the net to look for a job for Laila and we come to the conclusion that she should try out teaching nursery students because she loves kids. He tells me about her next date which is tomorrow, which unfortunately also collides with the day Laila is going for her first job interview. Now, knowing this girl, I cannot leave her alone on her own. Or else the interview staff will kick her out in a second. So I came up with a plan.  "Uh, can we make this a bit early this time?" I ask and squeeze my eyes in anticipation of what his reply would be.  "Early? But why?" He asks from the caller's end, and clear disappointment reflects in his voice. "Eh... it's because one of my friends has an interview tomorrow so I have to really go with her. It is really important for her future." An exhale comes from the other side and there is a moment of silence. A silence that s

 "You seriously did not do that!" I point at the fallen train.  "No." Laila pants. "I just pressed the lever. That's all. Why would I be so stupid to break the train like that?"  "But it did break! What do we do now? We broke the school's property. Do we have to pay for it?" I look around and then walk towards the door to check if anyone is here or not. The corridor is empty and it does not look like anyone passed from here, since this is the last room. "Nobody was here. Then, let's do one thing. Put the toy back like it was before. I am sure they do not inspect toys that much. If they see any abnormalities later, we will say we don't know." I whisper and Laila nods her head.  We bend over to the floor and start putting everything back in place. A few seconds later, the toy train station looks completely untouched. Laila bites her nail. "Nobody would understand that the train is broken, right?

 It is my third time coming to Dhruv's mansion. The place looks the same as when I saw it before. Dhruv's car stops in front of the building and I step out of it. This was the same place where we had an argument. It's an experience I can never forget. Even if I do want to. He had judged me at this place. He did apologize though. But I don't know how much honesty is there behind his words. Dhruv steps out of the car from the opposite direction and he calls out to his driver and tells him something. I don't know what he is upto. Maybe he is playing with my feelings. If I had the choice, I would have treated him the same way I did earlier until the moment he cracks up and understands that he can go nowhere with his plan. But I can't and so I have to stay mentally strong. Always keep my guard on.  "Meera." Dhruv calls me and I walk towards him and then we both walk to the door. He opens the door for me and I walk in. Blondie and Dhruv both walk ins

 "Boyfriend?" I stare at him in shock. "You–you are my sugar daddy."  "Yes, I know." Dhruv says with a straight face. "But I want to be more than that. I hope you remember, Meera. What I said in the park? I want you to like me,not because of my money, but because of me in general." I gulp the lump in my throat. "So, I would like to push our time together beyond the bounds of the six months. I want to learn about you and spend more time with you. I will definitely pay you. But after the six months are over, we get to decide whether we choose to stay or leave from this relationship." He sips his water in the glass. "From my side, I know that I won't be the one breaking this contract." I look at him, my face burning with embarrassment. Yes, it will be me who will break this contract if the time comes. " I am scared that you will leave me. So I want to give my best to hold you back." My eyes flutter and so does my heart, as I hear those words
