Demanding Sara, Adhering Shub

1st Dec, 2022
London

Sara's alarm starts buzzing. It was 6 in the morning. She had actually put the alarm to get up  and prepare for the exam. She had her last exam on 2nd of December and yet so much was left to cover. She woke up and decided to freshen up, so that she could begin with the preperations. Meanwhile, she thought of dropping a text to Shub. She sent a message, "Good Morning, baby! Just got up, wassup? Call me when you see this."

She sent the message and got busy with her daily chores before she finally sits down to study. She made herself some breakfast, she was going to have juice is when she remembered that Shubman hadn't replied her. What time it would be in India ?  Pretty much a decent afternoon. As far as she remembered, he had a match the previous day so obviously he wasn't at the practice too. Shub had told her he would come to London around 5th or 6th of December. She checked her WhatsApp again. The message had a single tick. "Where is this Guy ? Is everything Okay ? Why is his phone mysteriously off ?" She wondered after trying to call him. She was thinking if she should directly call Seb (Shub's manager) or she should wait for some more time. She was in two minds but decided to try later after an hour. She decided to begin with her exam preparations.

Almost after an hour or so, she was too intrigued in finishing her syllabus, the door bell rang. Who could it be ? At this point of time ? May be her flatmate had ordered something. She was not sure, but she had really tried hard to concentrate and now she was so consumed in the same that she didn't give much attention to the door bell. She assumed her flatmate would open the door.

After some 5 minutes her flatmate walked in to her room and said, "Sara, you didn't tell me you had ordered something from India ? It has finally arrived."

Sara: "Me ? I hadn't ordered anything as such."

Shub: "Are you sure, Miss Tendulkar ?" Saying this Shub made his entry to her rooom."

Sara jumped with excitement. She couldn't believe it. He was right in front of her with a bouquet of orchids. She ran to him shouting, jumped on him like a baby, hugged him, kissed him, bit him on his cheek while he just kept standing there, all blushing.

"ST, as Shubman is here, why don't you both spend some time together, I will stay at Kevin's place tonight. It's not everyday that he is here." Sara's flatmate said.

Sara: "Awwww! Thanks A."

Shub: "Hey! Thanks Aaliya."

Aaliya: "It's totally cool, you guys. Sara has always been a great flatmate. This is the least I could do. Welcome Shubman, consider this your own home! I will see you guys soon."

Aaliya left after sometime and Sara was just not leaving Shub. She kept on sitting on his lap  and was ranting all about how her exams had gone by far.

"So, tomorrow is the last paper?" Shub asked while playing with Sara's earrings. 

Sara: "Yea, and it's the toughest, and you are here. I really do not think I will be able to concentrate."

Shub was now busy playing with her fingers.

Shub: "What rubbish. Aise toh phir when you will come to see me play, mujhe bhi jaldi out ho jaana chahiye, hai na ?"

Sara: "Nooooooooooooooo! Not at all. You have to play well, baby!"

Shub's concentration was now on Sara's pretty hair, he was playing with them while speaking.

Shub: "Exactly, and you have to prepare well for tomorrow. Let's do one thing, you begin with your padhai, I will see what can be made for lunch."

Sara: "We'll order. Don't stress."
