chapter 14

Am I kidnapped? Where am I? I slowly opened my eyes again. He wasn't close to me this time. I remembered how I slept in his living room.  He asked me worryingly, "Are you okay?" "Yeah Sir." I replied getting up from couch. "It's 2 PM. Aren't you hungry?"I nodded and answered, "I will get fresh and then let's cook." He smiled and made a way for me. I went to room and came back after washing my face. He was in the kitchen cutting some vegetables. I went near him."Sir, you should sit. I will do it." I said him.He looked at me with curiosity. And replied, "You said you will teach me to cook?" I got awkward. "Ahh... Sorry.. I.. will teach you." I told him how to manage amount of salt, peppers, etc. He listened it carefully. And we ate lunch together. After lunch I was  feeling so lazy to do work or watch any show. I was in mood to play games. He was in his drawing room. I didn't wanted to disturb him. But I was bored sitting alone. I called Sara. She picked up after few rings. "Hey! How is it feeling with him? Is he good man? Don't tell me he hurt you? I will kill him alive if he does!" She said in one breath."Nothing happened. I was just bored." I sighed."Shall I tell you something interesting?" She asked."Yes" I replied while yawning."I and Ethan are going on picnic in this month's last week. Wow.. I'm so excited.""What?? When did you planned?" I asked her. Though she was excited, but I was kinda jealous of her. " Just few minutes ago. I know you will get bored. But don't disturb me in my picnic. Okay?" She said while chuckling."Okay. But I'm jealous. I do want a boyfriend now." I said."You are already living with your future boyfriend in the same house, under a same roof. Ummm.. it's amazing." She teased me. "Oh shut up! I am going hang up the call now." " Okay. Even I'm busy. Bye babe." "Bye" No work to do now. I started walking in the house finding different rooms. I pushed the door of drawing room slightly. He sensed it immediately. He ordered, "Come in!" I adjusted myself and stepped in. He was reading a document. I sat on a chair with a feet away from him. He was focused on reading. He was wearing a grey turtle neck full sleeves sweatshirt sticked to his body perfectly. His beard had perfect sharp border. His faint pink lips made his look more beautiful. Observing him made my love hormone rushing through my blood vessels. He suddenly turned his face to me. I turned mine to look somewhere else. I felt blood flow to my cheeks making them slightly warm. "Do want anything? You feel restless." He asked me.I felt embarrassed while getting caught. I patted my cheeks and said awkwardly, "Umm.. no I'm okay. I was just bored. Sorry sir." He didn't replied and buried himself in his work. I looked at some paintings hanging on the wall. He spoke up when I reached near him.."Let's roam on the terrace after my work." He said without looking at me. Was it a order? Or suggestion? He is so confusing. I agreed and kept observing everything in the room. After some time he left a long breathe. And removing his specs he said, "let's go!""Yeah" I followed him. We reached terrace. It had a bench for four people in the round shape. Looks like his friends visits here. His phone rang. He picked the call. And started talking, "Yes... Ohh.. when?.... Last week? And venue?.. okay.. Yeah I will... Okay Congrats.... Yeah I know I will think about it.." he looked at me while the last sentence. "Okay bye brother.. take care...."  He hung up the call and left a sigh. I tried to start conversation with him, "Do you live alone over here? Sir?"He looked at me and answered, "Don't call me Sir in my house. I'm not used to it. And yeah I love to be alone."Huh.. I thought. I continued the conversation, "Okay Ashton.." I felt him smiling softly.He asked after few seconds. "Will you design a wedding dress for me? I mean it's my brother's wedding. I want a unique outfit for them." "Okay... But will I get extra pay for it?" I joked. He replied in savage tone, "I'm not taking rent from you." He said while making a smirk. He got busy thinking something deeply. I went at the corner of the terrace. And stood enjoying wind over my body. And my mind thought about wedding dress. A sudden thought came to my mind I turned around I saw him just a inch away from me. I got frightened. I lost my balance and fell over him. Oh no.... What the hell was he doing just behind me? He saved me from falling down. He let me stand and make a balance. He apologized moving away from me."Sorry.. I.. I was lost in thought... And I don't know how this happened... I'm really sorry..." He said while his neck was bend and his hand rubbing the back of his neck. "Ummm... Okay... Let it be..." I got embarrassed.He said controlling the situation, "Wedding is on this month's last week. And the theme is light pink. Try to add some details in it. And focus on this. I will see about your office works." "Yeah okay.." I replied. He remained silent and we went down after sometime. ****Next morning I woke up early. He was still asleep. I got fresh and wear a coral peach coloured knee length formal dress which covered my half neck. A white small wedged sandals. And tied my hairs in a low pony. I went down to kitchen. I heard some voice from his room. He was awake and is currently getting fresh. I smiled to myself and prepared a cup of coffee for both. I waited for him till I roasted a bread on pan and added some sweet jam on it. I loved his kitchen. It has all things I need unlike mine. Both me and Sara are so lazy to buy groceries.  I was exploring the kitchen silently until I heard the voice, "No cooking tutions today?" I immediately turned around. "I.. I..  thought to.. have simple breakfast." I stammered. I paused for 2 seconds and continued, "Do you want to eat something else? I will prepare it for you." He chuckled, "No it's okay. Let's have lunch together in office cantin." It was so sudden request from him. I nodded hesitantly. I took dishes and made him sit on dining table. I poured coffee in both the cups. "Let's start." I smiled looking at him. He smiled back. He took a sip from cup and then asked me, "It's my brother's wedding. I want you to have a unique design." I nodded. He continued, "Let's discuss in my drawing room tonight. We will finalise the design tonight. And from tomorrow we can see some cloth comfortable and adorable." I nodded again. I was still thinking about his request. If I waited for him, others will assume something wrong about us. I don't know how is it gonna be? In this thoughts I was almost going to dip bread with jam in my coffee. He stopped me, "What are you doing?"________________________________________________Stay tuned ♥️
