Yet Again (under Editing)

Part 65

I was smiling at him,when suddenly his eyes caught my gaze. My gaze shifted to the other direction involuntarily and cheeks started to burn. For a few moments, there was an awkward silence.Neither he spoke nor did I. Although we both wanted to say something and hear something. The weird silence could have resided longer, but my tummy growled describing its emptiness. I felt a little embarrassed due to this, when his chuckle hit my eardrums. I turned to see him chuckling. I felt angry as well as more embarrassed. "What's so funny?" I scowled at him. " I knew it, tumne khaana nahi khaaya!" He spoke holding his laughter. "Toh??" I twisted my lips , still trying to stick to my attitude. "You were jealous of shreya !" He said. I lifted my eyes in a jiffy to meet his gaze but couldn't bear his stare, thus lowered my eyelids. "Why would I?" I turned to walk away. "Woh tum mujhe bataogi!" He ordered , grabbing my elbow. " leave me.... " I struggled. " Answer me first! Weren't you jealous of shreya today?" "Ra...jiv ...leave me!" I struggled harder. He scooped me in his arms, caging my waist,thus leaving no escape for me. "kya kar raheho?" I asked in an annoyed tone. "Apna jawaab maang raha hu" he husked against my lips. " leave me.." My voice was nothing louder than a whisper. " Yes or no?" his breathed was tickling my skin and I closed my eyes ,unable to bear the chilling currents running all over my body. " Yes" my mouth uttered without the concern of my mind. "I knew it...." I heard his giggle and opened my eyes. He left me and laughed his heart out. "Ab kya hua?" I was getting more annoyed by his laughter. "kis baat pe itna daant dikha rahe ho?" I yelled again, seeing him not responding. "Yehi dekhke hasi aa rahihai ki jo ladki apne patise zyada khaane ko priorty deti hai,wohpehli baar khaana chod deti hai wohbhi jealousy ki wajah se. Told you Mrs.Bhoomi malhotra... you will love me oneday more than your chicken .." he smiled victorously. " oh hello.... yahan pyar ki baat kahanse aa gayi?I dont love you.." I shouted to suppress my inner voice. "Ma'am, sir....." A voice caught our attention.We both turned to see the manager of the hotel calling us. "am sorry to disturb you but .... agar aap logo ko aitraaz na ho toh dinner ke baad hotel ke ball roomme aajayiyega.... we are celebrating 25th anniversary of our hotel so... there's a party.." he smiled. " ok we'll come... " Rajiv nodded without even asking me. After the manager left, I punched Rajiv's arm. "oucch.... ab kya hua?" he asked rubbed his arm. " kisse puchke haanbola? abhi mujhe thik se khaane bhi nahi doge kya?" I frowned. "Aree... bhagyawaan... jitna marzi charlena ... maine kahan apni bhains ko baandh rakha hai?" he spoke sarcastically. I hit him once again... "Accha sorry...Lets eat..." he smiled. And I sat to eat to feed my poor tummy .
