Chapter 36
Gautam's POV
You made such an amazing dinner for me. Can I kiss your hands please? " My both eyes almost came out of my sockets.
Now I know exactly how Vikram must have felt when I said the exact thing to Sandhya... Sorry Vikram.... Love you bhai. I would never do it again.
" For us... she cooked for all three of us not for you... And she cooks amazing food for me everyday. Most important thing is that NO you can't kiss her hand. " I glared at him but he ignored.
" What is wrong with you bhai ? You eat your food... I am talking to her and you keep jumping in our conversation. " He said to me.
Shut up little brother... I have not punched you for so long and my hands are itching.
" I would give anything to have food like everyday. Can you cook for me forever? "
I think he has gone mad. I have to treat him... My 4 punches on his jaws twice a day would fix his problem.
" I will open a restaurant, you can come and eat there everyday. " Maurvi said sweetly. She is so cute, doesn't even know that he was flirting with her.
" I mean Maurvi, you are a very beautiful girl, who can cook like a professional... This makes you the most eligible girl in the whole country. Will you marry me? " My both eyes almost came out of my sockets and my jaw touched the floor.
" NO... " I said very quickly
" What the hell is your problem? I am not proposing to you... Are you her Personal Assistant? "
" No, but I am her boyfriend... " I said calmly. The expression of his face changed.
" What??? " He almost shouted and looked at me and then at her. She just closed her eyes.
" You are kidding right??? "
" No, she is my girlfriend. You can ask her or any of my friends. " I said with a smile. Maurvi was blushing and I was amazed that she did not deny it.
I really love her.
" When did this happen? This is not fair Maurvi, how could you do that? " He asked and she smiled.
" Did you tell mom and dad? " he asked me.
" No, but I will... "
" Come on yaar Maurvi, I think you got confused and selected him in my place. " He said and I was shocked.
What????? Is he the one she has a crush on? Could be... He is a cute doctor, quite handsome and she loves and respects our parents too. No this is not possible. Oh god !! I don't want this to be the case. I can't fight my own brother... but can't see her with anyone, not even my own brother.
" Maurvi, tell him... he is just like your brother. " I said to her and she smiled. She didn't say anything.
Why the hell she didn't repeat that she considers Sid as her brother? I am sure Sid is the one. Shit !!! This can't happen.
" I will get a rakhi, tie it on his hand. " I said
" What?? Why?? What nonsense are you talking about bhai?" Sid was shocked.
" Shut up and stay put or today I will practice boxing, treating you as my punching bag. " I went to our home to get a rakhi.
Maurvi's POV
He seriously thought that I have a crush on Siddharth? How stupid he can be? Was he jealous just now?? I am in love with him and he thinks that I like his brother, of all the people? My heart was beating like a drum.
" Oh God !! What is wrong with him ? It seems he is totally whipped. He is overly possessive about you. That's why he got irritated when I asked you to be my model and when I asked if I could kiss your hand or marry me. He is crazy about you." He hugged me lightly.
" I am happy for both of you. But what is this thing about rakhi? " Siddharth asked me and I burst out laughing.
Before I could tell him anything, Gautam came with a rakhi in his hand.
" Sid, remove your hands from her. Stop hugging my girlfriend. Now tie this rakhi on his hand, Maurvi.. " He said to me but my heart was giving me trouble.
Was he really so possessive over me? It is a dream come true for me.
" What are you thinking? Come on, do the needful. "
" But .... " Siddharth started saying but he stopped him in mid sentence.
" Shut up and don't move. Maurvi will you do it? "
" But how can I ?? "
" Why, what is the problem ? "
" N- nothing... I was just saying... "
" Then do it... " He was adamant, I could not control my laughter any more and burst out laughing. He kept on looking at me. Even Siddharth was confused.
" Are you mocking me? I found him right? I won the challenge now, tie this and fulfill your side of the deal... "
" I don't mind tying it on his hand but let me tell you, he is not the one. " I kept laughing.
" He is not? " He asked and I said no.
" Hey, hello... I am also present here. Will both of you please tell me what is going on? " Siddharth asked as he was totally confused.
" Ok, enough of this nonsense, Maurvi... I am sick of it. Now I want to know, who is he ? What is your problem? Why can't you tell me his name? Either you tell me his name or I swear... "
" No, first you tell me what the hell is going on here? " Siddharth asked him.
" My girlfriend has had a crush on someone for a few years and I want to know his name. Is that ok? You got your answers?? Now don't you think I need answers too? I deserve to know? " He asked Siddharth and looked at me with his eyebrows raised.
" Aww... you had a crush on me sweetheart ? " Siddharth asked with a smile.
" No !! She didn't now shut up." Gautam answered him for me.
He looked angry. He came very close to me. I was a bit alarmed. I took a few steps back. He took more steps towards me. I took more steps back and he kept coming towards me. My back touched the wall.
" Stop Gautam !! Siddharth please tell him... "
" Bhai !! "
"Stay out of it Sid... " He glared at him.
" Now tell me sweetheart, I have to know today. I willl not take no for an answer. So come out with his name. " I looked at Siddharth with pleading eyes but he shrugged.
" Ok !! I will... But on a few conditions. " I said.
" Really ?? And what are those?" He looked surprised.
" First, you say that you lost the challenge as you couldn't find and bring him in front of me. Keep 10 K on that table and then go on that side of the table. "
" Really?? Are you serious ? Why do you think I will do that? "
" Do you want to know or not? If you want to know then you have to. " I said with a smile.
" What if you don't tell his name, once I give you money?"
" What if you don't give money once I tell? "
" So what is to be done? "
" Give money to Siddharth and he will see that you don't do any cheating. Siddharth, listen I swear, I have already won. I will give you a treat with the money. Just see that he follows all the conditions." I smiled.
" Yeah sure, but I prefer the food cooked by you. " Siddharth said with a smile.
" Ok, I will cook whatever you want. " he smiled at me while Gautam glared at him which he ignored as usual.
" You trust him more than you trust me? " He looked hurt but I couldn't help smiling.
He is so cute when he gets angry with jealousy... Looks even more handsome and adorable.
" Do you think this is funny Maurvi? Let me tell you, I am very serious. So don't play games. "
" I am not playing games, I am playing safe. Please step back and go on the other side of the table. "
