Chapter 35

Gautam's POV


" Oh my God !!! Someone has become very beautiful. Hey beautiful, will you be my.... ? "

" No .... She will not. " I interrupted in an angry tone. He is too fast.

" What?? What is your problem? I am asking her... "

" And I am telling you that she will not." I said with my clenched jaw.

" Relax, let's go out of here first." Maurvi said and I realised that we were still inside the airport. He collected his luggage and we came out into the parking. Sid kept his bags in the car and again turned towards her and smiled.

" So Maurvi, will you be... ? "

" Will you stop this nonsense Sid? I told you she won't. "

" I am not getting what is your problem? Are you her PA ? Let me talk to her. I think she is capable of speaking for herself. So please stay out of it, bhai. " I wanted to punch him but didn't want to create a scene in front of her. I just glared at him but he didn't bother. He turned towards her again.

" So will you please be my model? "

What??? Thank god !!! So he was about to ask her... that and I would have punched him.

" What?? Are you serious?? Model?? Me? Have you hit your head somewhere ? " Maurvi said to him laughing.

" No, I am perfectly alright... But have you ever seen your self in the mirror? I mean look at yourself beautiful and glowing skin, evenly fair skin tone and long black silky and shiny hair. You are perfect to be my model."

Well he is right... But I don't want her to be his model or anything. I don't mind her being his sister-in-law though.

" Oh ! Please Siddharth, stop this nonsense, I don't want to be any model. Don't tease me please. "

" I am absolutely serious, beautiful. I am a Dermatologist and you are perfect for me. " he said with a smile.

What??? How dare he say that she is perfect for him?? I will surely beat him now. I glared at him. I will handle him once we reach home. She is perfect for me, not him or anyone.

" I mean if you be my model, it will be perfect. So please say yes. "

" I am sorry, but no... I don't want that. First of all I am very camera shy. Another reason is that I don't want my pics to be published anywhere. I am a wallflower kind of girl. I don't feel comfortable with all that. Recently my pics got published in a local newspaper and I really got fed up. So, I am sorry Siddharth, but I don't want to do anything with this. "

I really love this girl. I don't want to beat the whole city or country full of boys who will follow her. I would have to leave my work and have to become her bodyguard forever.

" Bad luck for me, can I persuade you by saying anything? "

" No.. " Maurvi and I both said together.

" Ok !! But I won't stop trying. By the way, what was your problem, big brother? Why were you answering for her? "

" Just like that... " I said but he looked amused.

We reached home and he was unloading his luggage, when I got a call from the hospital and I had to go because of some emergency. So I said bye to both of them and left. There was an accident and two patients were admitted to the hospital and their scanning was very important.

I did all the necessary tests on them and got free so I came to the cafeteria to have a cup of coffee. Sandhya and Vikram were also there engrossed in each other. I joined them.

" Hi, can I disturb the love birds? " They both smiled at me. We had a coffee together. Sandhya left after that.

" Hey, so you looked very happy after the night when Sandhya came to me, while you were sulking the day before. So do you mind telling me, why were you upset earlier and what happened that night?"

" Nothing special... "

" Will you tell me, what is going on Gautam? Don't even try to avoid the topic or I will punch you now. You might be better at boxing but I will also give you good punches. So you better come out with everything. "

I was a bit hesitant about telling him now but I needed to share it with him. I nodded.

" Are you free for an hour or so? " I asked.

" Yes, of course... I will always be free for you. "

I told him everything from the start to the last hour. I told him my feelings and my inhibitions. He listened very carefully.

" So you are saying that you were faking in the beginning but you are in love with her seriously now?"

" I don't know what it is... but my mind is always like a field of tug of war. I try to stay away from her but feel the undeniable tug towards her. You know that I have never been the possessive kind of person, but I want to beat every single guy now a days whoever comes near her. " Vikram smiled and winked at me.

" You are whipped man. You have fallen in love with her. Why don't you tell her? "

" I can't, though she said that she likes me more than any other man, but still she has a crush on some very cute and handsome doctor of approximately our age. I am going crazy with just the thought of her being with anyone else. I know she likes me too but what about her crush?? Today, I almost punched Sid as I thought he was going to propose her right in front of me. Thank God !! He was just asking her to be his model as she has flawless skin and amazing hair. "

" You need to tell her about your feelings, Gautam. I think she loves you too... the way she blushes, she can't fake all that. She can fake the expression but not her blush. Tell her how you feel before someone else does."

" How ?? I want to know, whom she likes. I asked her many times but she never told me. I just know that he is a doctor and may be some family friend as she said she loves and respects his parents. "

" So what? Why do you want to know, whom she likes? You like her just tell her yaar. Just sweep her off her feet and kiss and tell her. I am sure she loves you. She blushes in the same way around you as my Sandhya does. Trust me. "

" But, what if she gets offended or starts crying and thinks that I took advantage of her? "

" No, don't think negative. You know Sandhya used to hate me so much.. At least, Maurvi says you are her most favourite man. Go for it bro. Use your charm and make her fall for you. Though I think she is already in love with you. "

I hugged him and he patted on my back.

I was about to leave when he said, " Oh I almost forgot, I am having the Holi party at my place. Please come with Siddharth and Maurvi. Sandhya is going to Jodhpur after a week and I want to celebrate with her. " I smiled at him and went home. I needed to tell Sid... about Maurvi too.

I reached home but it was locked. Now where was he? Maybe he told Maurvi, where he was going. I went to her place and rang the bell. The door opened and my younger brother was the one who opened the door.

" Oh bhai, good you have come. Maurvi has made food for both of us too. Come she was waiting for you to come.

I went inside and Maurvi smiled at me and then started laying the table.

I went near her as I wanted to tell her about my feelings but Sid was also there.

We all sat down to have food. She had made Rajma masala , kadhai baby corn, rice and parantha. Everything was amazing.

Sid was enjoying the food so much and said, " Wow, yaar Maurvi... you know you are amazing. The food is awesome, I wish, I could eat this kind of food everyday. Right bhai? "

" Hmmmm. "

" You know, I decided to come home but I was not very happy as mom and dad are not here so I am a bit sad. Then I was missing the home cooked food. But you made such a nice dinner for me. Can I kiss your hands please? " My both eyes almost came out of my sockets.
