Bangalore 2012 II

The day started pretty early. I checked my watch. Six in the morning. I got up and had a quick shower. I straightaway headed for the hotel. On my way, I called her up. No Answer. I knocked on their door. No Answer. I waited for 5 mins. Knocked again. Finally she opened the door. They were already up. Phew, half of my work was done. Her friend was in the shower. I ordered coffee for the three of us.

In about an hour we left the hotel. I helped them and guided to the bus they had to catch. We decided to meet up for dinner. I asked her to text me if they get it. I wished both of them luck and headed back. Back at the apartment, no one had woken up. I rested on the couch and dozed off.

I saw her. So beautiful. She was wearing formals. Black trousers and white shirt. High heels. Wet hair, lip gloss, kohl in her eyes. She looked hot. We went out for a dinner. The Village. the ambience was just romantic. Light, cold breeze. Dimmed lights. The cutest company. It seemed perfect. Stolen glances, shy smiles, occasional winks. I had the best dinner of my life. We left the restaurant. I decided to take a walk back to the apartment. She was rubbing her arm. I gave her my jacket. She held my hand. I tightened the grip. She didn't look at me, but I kept staring at her. I noticed the twitches that her face made. We sat on the deserted stairs of a closed mall. I still could not get my eyes off her. What amused me about her was the child-like cuteness. The guy who dumped her had to be a whack-job. She looked at me. Our eyes met. The stare was locked. She leaned onto me. I wanted to kiss her, but I was distracted by a loud noise. I looked at her. She was gone. I searched around for her only to find out that I was on the couch in my apartment. I let out a huge sigh.

I checked my cellphone. Nothing. I called her up. They were on their way back to the hotel. Her GD went alright. I got busy with my project work. My cellphone buzzed. I checked it was seven in the evening. Appy Calling. She asked me to come over. I got ready and left. We were supposed to go out for dinner, all three of us. But her friend didn't feel like joining us. I thanked God. We left for KFC. Chicken @ KFC and Ice-cream @ Gelato Italiano. A scoop of Black Current for me and Chocolate for her.

Watching her eat the Ice-cream was a treat. Her eyes closed with a sense of satisfaction as she licked the scoop. Occasionally licking for the leftovers of chocolate on her lips. I wished I could have the leftovers. The chocolate started melting and her hand was all covered in it. She asked me to help her finish it. I shared her scoop. My First Shared Ice-cream.

We got down near Sukhsagar Mall. I bought a chocolate cigar. I taught her to smoke a cigar. We shared alternate fags. Hey ! Dot get me wrong here. She occasionally used to smoke and it was her request to have a cigar. We sat on the deserted stairs of the closed Sukhsagar Mall. But neither did she lean onto me, nor did I make any moves on her.

I dropped her off at her hotel room. Wished both of them good night and left for my apartment."Nothing hurts more than waiting, since I don't even know what I am waiting for."
