Laughing, Ru and Xini got into the car, racing out as if they really were being chased by some 'footmen'.
Ru caught hold of her hand in his as soon as the car was put into drive. Like Xini, he too had trouble believing that he had finally gathered the courage. Tonight, when he had gone there, it had not been with the intention of asking her out like this!
In fact, ever since mama mentioning that Xini was most like her, he had been considering asking her out six months down the line. When he had finally won back her friendship.
But seeing her lying on the bed had been quite an eye opener. It had made him aware of to just her beauty but even how attracted he was to her bu**! He had almost touched her..
