It was believable! Kayra bought his story. Her stomach was growling and she did not have the strength to keep arguing.
Kush helped her get up from bed and asked her to freshen up while he ordered food. In other occasions, he would have loved to cook but today was uncalled for.
After going through the string of bad incidents, Kayra did not think much and went for a change of clothes.
Kayra took more than forty five minutes in the bathroom. It's reasonable in the given situation though. Kush kept himself busy while chugging water and scrolling through Internet.
Doorbell rang, the delivery guy was there with the food. Kush was laying out the dishes on the table when Kayra entered the room.
He ordered so many different dishes in case Kayra did not like something she can opt for other things.
They started with the pizza. It was medium sized cheese burst pizza which was a goner within a few minutes. They both were really hungry. They gobbled down the dimsums. Then they had mixed sauce pasta with stuffed garlic bread. After which they moved on to Shahi Paneer with Naan.
There were still 3 more dishes to go but they decided to skip to desserts for now.
Desserts included macaroons, Ras Malai, Pastries and Brownies.
Kayra was smiling after such a hearty meal. It made her let go all of her worries and live in the moment for a while. Everything was so delicious, she thanked Kush.
"You don't have to say that, you are going to pay for half of it right?" Kush chuckled.
"Of course, we are going Dutch!" added Kayra.
"Hey, I was kidding okay? You don't have to steal my limelight!" frowned Kush.
It just made Kayra laugh.
"Are you okay?" asked Kush.
Kayra nodded in agreement. Her eyes were full of overwhelming emotions.
"I wanted to ask, what's your relation with those two?" this question from Kush made Kayra shrugg.
We are just acquaintances and I don't want to be in touch with them.
"So, can you be in touch with me?" asked Kush.
"huh?" Kayra couldn't get his intentions.
"I am asking you out! I don't like to beat around the bush. I have known you for a while now. Although you tend to be reckless at times that it makes me loose my calm. I can't help but worry about you and the past two days made me realize how much you mean to me." Kush took out a bouquet of flowers from behind her chair.
A stream of water went down Kayra's cheek. She did not know how to react. He has been very nice to her. Taking care of her all this while. But, she's going to leave for home soon. How can they start a relationship with a goodbye?
