To The Straight Path.

Chapter 14.

They sat there for more than half an hour without saying anything just in complete peaceful and comfortable silence.

He was feeling calm, he felt as if a big rock is removed from his chest and he can breath again freely. He started loving her.

Some of her words were so confusing for him but some fixed in his mind and heart.

They were now in dinning room, on his right Eira was sitting and on his left Daniel. There was an uncomfortable silence in the room.

"So, everything is ready for today?"

"Yes." Daniel replied in a short answer and focused back on his food.

Eira was sipping her juice not giving any importance to Daniel and their conversation. She was looking at Alex time to time. But whenever she find him looking at her she immediately look the other way making him chuckle or sometime to smirk.

"Al.. James." Daniel fake coughed a little, trying to cover up his mistake to call him Alex.

"Yes." Alex asked trying to hide his smirk.

"Actu.." he was saying something but Eira cut him off.

"Alex, can you pass me the juice please." She said making Daniel to choke on his food and Alex to laugh.

He shook his head with a smile and passed her the jug. Daniel eyes were still widen in shock. He was staring at her making her feel little uncomfortable.

"Stop staring." She said in a cold and stern voice making Alex to smirk again. She was in her niqab but she still didn't like him looking at her.

"How? When?" Daniel asked looking at his childhood bestfriend.

"Does she even know about that?" He again asked in a whisper only Alex to listen but as the room was in pin drop silence she listened.

"Alex." She called sweetly making his smirk to widen.

He was really enjoying their childish behaviours.

"Yes love."

This made Daniel to choke on his food again. He looked at Alex with widen eyes and with slightly open mouth.

Alex's full focus was on Eira. They were looking at eachother totally ignoring and forgetting that there is someone else is also present in the room.

"You were saying something."

"Umm, yeah. I was thinking that after our boxing sessions can you teach me shooting."

This made both of them to choke, they started coughing making Eira to smile. Alex looked at her.

"You want to learn what?" He asked unsure.

"Shooting."

"You mean the real shooting."

"Is there any fake shooting?" This made Alex to chuckle.

"Whatever you say." He said with a smile making her feel extra excited.

Daniel was just looking from Alex to Eira and Eira to Alex in pure shock.

They started eating again except Daniel.

"I like her." He said out of nowhere Alex snapped his face at him and Eira started coughing.

"Astagfirullah." She mumbled under her breath.

"Say that again." Alex challenged in a scary voice, glaring at him.

"Chill dude relax, I'm not looking at your wife in that way. I didn't like her presence for a second but she is different. She is yours don't worry, I'm happy being single."
