"Let's talk on the way, please?"
"Where do you want me to go? I can drive myself there and it would be easier for me to come back too."
"Will you Let me have the honour to drive you from here and then back to your home?" He flashed his dimpled smile.
'Ohh! You didn't need to smile, those dimples are attractive. How I wish to poke them..'
In her delusion, she actually poked his dimples.
'How I wish to hold her hand right now'
"Ahem Ahem! My dimples are irresistible, right?"
"Yes, actually. They're so attractive."
And she kept poking his dimples for around half a minute before her senses kicked in.
"I'm sorry, I'm so... sorry. I like the(m), I mean I didn't mean it."
'She looks so cute when she's embarassed.'
"But I didn't mind it." He winked.
'Can he be more shameless!' she thought while making a hole in the ground with her continuous staring.
"Let's go now, I want to take you to an informal dinner.. Will you accept my invitation?"
"I don't think it's appropriate."
"Please" again he showed his dimples.
'oh no! I'm melting in those dimples.'
'She smiled, she's smiling at me... Oh god! She's actually smiling at me. I can't believe it.' All he thought with a stoic face.
"I'm accepting your invitation, sir!" She said with her innocence and with a pure smile.
'Is she planning to kill me with that smile. Wait.. did she call me sir?'
"Sir?" Asked he.
"Umm yes, sir?" She asked in confusion.
"You can talk to me informally."
"I don't think I deserve to be informal with you.. yet."
"We'll think of something", he said while opening the passenger side door.
They drove while trying to talk but ending up in awkward silence, everytime.
They stopped at a not so fancy Italian restaurant. It was a regular place and not an out of the ordinary restaurant which would make her uncomfortable.
They sat across each other on a table in the busy restaurant.
The waiter came and asked him first, but Khan directed his finger towards her to indicate that she's the one ordering for both of them. She looked at the waiter and the waiter smiled and asked "the usual?"
She said "yes, make it two, please."
He arched his eyebrow at her.
She blushed and then replied his unsaid question, "I'm a regular customer here."
'I already know, sweetheart.' those were the words he wanted to say out aloud but suppressed.
"Do you think I had just randomly picked this restaurant?"
She was at a loss of words, as she actually thought that's what the reason of his was.
She looked at him with an 'o' expression.
'She's so cute. I wish I could capture her expression at this very moment.'
He stared at her lovingly while she looked at him disbelievingly.
