He had skipped the office that day because he wanted to spend more and more time with her. He like her presence around him, it made him feel a bit humane. It provoked a weird frenzy inside him making adrenaline rush in his veins. He liked everything about her, her smile, her eyes, her voice, her fragnance. Everything.

All the day, they both had spent most of the time in kitchen with Irtaza telling him how to cook chicken karahi. She had told her that she didn't know how to make it while they were conversating on something and then he simply led her to the kitchen, his chef mode turning on. He asked her to cook while he will be instructing her. Initially, she was nervous because of his gaze on her but slowly she got acquainted to it and then cooked like a pro while he instructed her.

He was a strict person, when it comes to teaching. And she being careless as ever was always about to burn her fingers when he pulled her hand back, saving her from getting burn.

For a moment, she forgot everything. Her nervousness didn't click her. He was being extra normal with her and that made her relax and she did her task confidently. And she appreciated the fact too that he didn't try to approach him or corner her and then kiss the wholelife out of her. His kisses always made her breathless and the nervousness wouldn't go away for several hours.

"So lets taste it, senorita" Irtaza said before sitting down on the dining table.

He took a spoon and filled it with the karahi while she looked at him expectantly, standing by his chair.

As soon as the food entered into his mouth, a grimace adorned his face.

"What?" she gasped, "it doesn't taste good?" she asked with that hurtful voice in her tone.

"It is but not yet" he said and with that he made her sit on his lap and filled the spoon again, then making her eat it. A frown marred her features.

As she took the bit, he kissed her, immediately. His tongue suddenly dipping into her mouth and sliding against hers as he wrapped her legs around his waist.

"Wh..at" she murmured between the kiss as his hands gripped her waist.

Soon when they both were breathless, they pulled away, gasping for oxygen.

"Now it tastes good" he said.

"What?" she asked, frowning.

"The chicken karahi"

She blinked rapidly and couldn't help but give a small smile. It was kind of hilarious for her.

She got off of his lap and he let her, sitting on the chair next to him before filling his plate with the karahi.

"I want an honest review" she said with a stern voice. Hell, she made alot of efforts to make this dish and he can't get away just like that. She really wanted an honest answer.

"I told you"

"No, that wasn't an honest review"

"Do you want me to kiss you again?"

"No!" she gasped, "if you...you do that, I'll run aw..ay"

"And I'll catch you" he uttered pulling her chair closer to him, making her nervous, instantly.

"Taste...taste the dish" she suddenly felt her voice falling down.

"It tastes much better when I taste it on your tongue, Zahra" he whispered, leaning his face closer to her.Zahra....he is serious

"So you're trying to get away just like that. You have to taste the dish" she said instantly, breaking the tense atmosphere and instantly changed the topic because it was increasing her nervousness and she wanted a god damn honest review of her dish!
