A date with him

Preeti's point of view

I took a long shower after the cockroach incident. I still can fell his creepy slippery legs on my neck and hand. Cockroaches creeps me out since my childhood. They are the reason I don't eat rajma curry. No offense of rajma curry but they are look like a cockroaches. No one knows about that and I am not planning to tell anyone. Anshul love rajma and if he will know the reason behind my hateness of rajma curry he makes me eat to it stubbornly.

I went to downstairs for the presentation of dinner but as soon as I entered the hall mummy rushed to me with a list on her hand.

"Preeti...beta..Will you Please go to the market. Your chachi (Aunty) called me and asked me to buy these things. I could ask Anshul but he went to his friend's house and don't know when he will come." She said while handing me the list.

My chachi and tayi are living in our village which was a forty minute drive from here. Every year we celebrates Diwali in our village. It's kind of a family ritual in our family. So this way we all cousins, aunt and uncle could meet and have a family dinner together at least at once in a year.

I took the list from mummy's hand and take a look of it. There are things which we need for a Diwali puja, few things for decorations and most important the silver coin of goddess laxmi for dhanteras puja.

"But mummy we can buy them in morning. It's already dark outside. How could I get to market now and what about the dinner." I asked looking at mummy.

"Don't worry about the dinner I will cook it. Keerti will help me. Your papa will be going to village tomorrow early in the morning due to some work in fields. So you need to buy them now." Mummy said.

"..and how will I go to market?" I asked while looking at the list again.

"Don't worry about that. I already asked Siddharth and he is ready to accompany you to market." My head spun to mummy as soon as she gave me the information.

I and Siddharth alone.

My face turned into red when a thought came into my mind. Mummy is looking at me with her confused eyes. My blush is deepen when I saw Siddharth behind Mummy.

I immediately lowered my gaze and looked down.

"Shall we?" I heard him whispering softly close to me.

I raised my head and looked at him. Mummy is nowhere in my sight. I didn't even hear her walking away.

I am still embarrassing about the evening incident. It was just a cockroach and I made myself embarrassed in front of our whole family.

I looked at him and he has a soft grin on his face like he was thinking something in his mind and it gave a pleasure to him. He is looking at me still waiting for my reply.

I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear and nodded my head.

When we reached to his car he opened the passenger door and hold it open for me.

I like his small gesture for me in which he makes me feel special.

I hopped inside the car and he closed the door behind me.

He walked around the car and hopped inside the car on driving seat.
This is the first time when I am in his car sitting beside him on the passenger door. For next few hours we both will going to be alone. This alone thought gave a chill to my spine and my stomach churned in new feelings.

........................................................................

We went to market and bought all thing which was on the the list. Market is crowded as comparison to other days. This is expected because it's festive season and market is full of new lighting chandeliers, fairy lights, plastic garlands, candles, rangoli colours.

Every time we walked into a crowded shop Siddharth was there, walking beside me and make sure I didn't bumped to someone.

After shopping we walked out from the shop. Siddharth took shopping bags from my hand and put them at the back seat of car.

"Can we have dinner outside." He asked me in a law voice when we both settled in the car.

His hands are holding the steering wheel and his face is illuminating by the streetlights and shop lights.

I don't know what to say. It's already a dinner time and I know this all shopping makes him hungry. He didn't eat anything after lunch and it's already 8.30 P.m of evening.

But why I am feeling it was not because of starving, he asked me because he wants to spend time with me alone. Whatever it is, I also want this. I also want to spend some alone time with him but what about mummy she will scold me to death if I got late. What everyone will think. They must be waiting for us to arrive home before dinner time.

"Don't worry about everyone. I already called Anshul that we both will have dinner outside."

"Now shall we..?"He whispered softly looking at me.

I nodded my head as 'yes.'

"Okey.." I whispered and lower down my head to hide the pink colour on my cheeks.

***

We went to a restaurant nearby park. Their food is really delicious and affordable too, plus they had a great view of park. You can see the couples and teenagers jogging and having fun with their partners and friends. Kids are playing at the play section of the park.

A waitress probably in her late teenage came to us and took our orders. Siddharth is ordering for both of us.

Whole time her eyes is fixing on Siddharth. Her cheeks turned in pink shade when Siddharth looked at her while giving her order. She is not looking at him with lust, it was like you found a handsome guy in a crowd and wants him to stare at him all your heart before he disappear in crowd.

My lips curled into smile looking at her and I bit my lip to hide my smile when. But I think Siddharth noticed my smile. I am not surprised, looking at her. She is not the first girl who looked at him like this. When we were in shop for shopping, mostly girl was looking at him with same expressions.

He looked at me confusingly and then the waitress. I think he understand the reason behind my smile because he shifted uncomfortably in his seat when he noticed waitress pink cheeks and her gaze on him.
