It started with an Accident...

Chapter 74

Mahi's POV

Oh, It was the picture of the cake I had baked for him. I looked at him.

  He smiled and slid the picture and in the next picture he was cutting the cake, I was surprised but then he slid again, and in the next one he was eating it.

" You ate that?? " I could not help asking the question.

" Almost the whole of it. "  he grinned and came to sit next to me. My heartbeat increased with the thought that he ate it but I still doubted.

" You are lying, you may have tasted it and must have given it to that girl... What was her name ?? "  I said.

" I don't remember her name either, but how could I let her eat a cake that you prepared for me? "  he said looking serious.

" You are still lying !! You told her to take it. "  I reminded him.

" I told her that she could try it if you didn't mind. But of course, you would not have liked it so I didn't even let her touch it,"  he told me.

" You ate the whole cake? I don't believe it. It was too big for one person to finish it. "  I asked.

"  Almost ninety percent of it. I swear, I would have eaten the whole one but Raj came and saw me eating it so asked for a slice and I refused but he still cut a slice and had it. You can ask him right away. Call him and ask."  he said making a face.

Really?? He ate the whole one because I made it for him?

" Then why did you say to me that ... You could not even taste it? "  I could not help asking it.

" I am sorry for that, Mahi. Please hit or slap me if you want. I know you were hurt that day. "  he looked away and closed his eyes. That didn't answer my question.

" Why did you do that?? And then why did you eat it after I left? "  I asked again.

" I am sorry, but please don't ask me why I did that, I would not be able to tell you that. Just know that it hurt me a lot to break your heart that day. How could I not eat it, when you made it for me?"  He said, I looked at his eyes and could see sincerity and moisture in them.

Why can't he tell me the reason?? What was he hiding?

He made me try eating the pastry but I shook my head as I was still annoyed that he was hiding the reason. But he insisted that I eat it or he threatened that he would not go out of the food joint. I tried it once and loved it so started eating it absent-mindedly thinking about Ron's reason for hurting me that day.

Just then I saw that he was smiling like a lunatic.

Was he bipolar? Just a few moments back, his eyes had moisture and he looked serious, and now...

"  What happened to you?" I asked.

" I am enjoying our first date... "  he said.

" First date?? This?? You call it a date?? What happened to you, Mr Casanova? " I asked sarcastically.

"  He went into a coma a few years ago when the love of his life left him and went away. He just came out of the coma. It might not be a proper date, but something is better than nothing. I am happy that at least we are together, spending some time together. It is a date for me. But expect more and more romantic dates with me, my princess. "

" Do not call me a princess. "

" Queen of my heart?? "

" Ughhh!! " I hope you have had whatever you wanted, let go! "
Let's go back to work, please. "  I said and he smiled at some private thoughts.
