His Pretended Fiancee`(spin off of Marriage For Convenience)

Chapter 1 Three glasses of water, one fresh lime soda and a few exchange of texts later I picked up white mermaid shaped salt container first and sprinkled some in the empty glass and tried to mix in whatever little water was left after I had gulped the entire glass in one go. Actually it's been half an hour, I have been waiting for my girlfriend turned fiancée. Oh having her as a girlfriend was much convenient! But since the day I proposed to her she's been a liability, add on to my all other set of problems. Only good thing that happened from this engagement was my dad who was on top of the world finally smiling genuinely after six months especially because Genelia's father is the biggest investor in the business of medical. They have their own private pharmaceutical lab in which they conduct experiments and discover and create new medicines. They also have full backing by the government because lots of medicines that were only imported earlier are now exported bringing revenue to the country. So "you hooked the right fish" my dad's proud words when I announced my engagement. Well why did I propose her? The question remains alien even to me. Maybe ,maybe I had started believing in fairytales. Bull s**t! But can you blame me? It happens when you have the most loving couple in your friend circle. Eight years of their marriage and they are still lovey dovey with each other and sometimes it is so much that it sucks. Right then in search of same happily ever after, I thought Genelia was the chosen one for me And boy how wrong was I? Her loud shrilling shriek SAAAAAAAAndip" as she calls my name. I tried to explain it's spelled as San and deep Sandeep and it doesn't look like an endearment. But once a girlfriend turns fianceé, one has to accept that whatever she says or does is absolutely right and there is no room for argument. Forgive my judgments though! Sometimes I feel that she has missed having a pet dog that her parents were strictly against so she satisfies herself referring me as her pet calling me saaaaaaaaannnn. Gosh sometimes I believe my ears would bleed to death hearing my own name. But like a very sweet boyfriend s***h fiancé I reply with 'Hi! Babe' stretching forward for the stupid air kisses that she gives whenever she meets me. Yes kissing is a big no no because it might ruin her mac mocha lipstick that she'd so liberally applied on her lips. So incase I have to kiss her I have to wait till the party or date is over so that she doesn't have to compromise with her looks. Really can someone be that naïve? Oh my god! Here it goes again I am bickering about my own fianceé 'Bad boy Sandy' I scold myself and concentrate on another mermaid shaped white container of pepper this time and sprinkle some into the same glass. Looking inside the glass I notice black and white dots mingling into the water but since salt has already dissolved into water, it wasn't visible. So I added more salt. Ignore me if I am irritating but I am bored to death. And this is what boredom does to you I add little water in the glass and stir it stirring the glass in the cup of my palms. The salt had now dissolved but tiny particles of black pepper were visible, I add more pepper, more water, more salt and then water and stirring now becomes difficult so I insert my finger into the water and stir it with it. Oops I missed the fork and spoon that were nicely placed on the glass table of this fancy five star hotel. Really why does Genelia have to select such fancy places to meet and then she doesn't even enjoy eating ordering some salads or diet coke for herself. Damn what is the use of money if you do not know how to use it. Doesn't she know so many people of India have lost wealth because of unnecessary hoarding when the government announced demonetization.  So why not live, eat and enjoy while we have it and are still alive? But who am I to argue. Enjoyment and me have also become two different terms now. I sometimes miss myself; Sandeep the charmer. When all the girls loved to be with me. Don't don't don't get me wrong I am still the modern times Joey,  Although I still have to experiment the unhooking of a female bra by mere looking at it. It's just that my girlfriend is very jealous and suspicious kind of person. She does not take me talking and flirting with girls easily. She rather gets very restless when I ignore her texts, a couple of times she did try to sneak into my inbox too. Not to forget the major blow up she had when I refused to share my effbee password with her. She always has the knowledge of my whereabouts. Her explanation, "I worry about you so much," she said as she cradled into my laps, caressing my week old stubble "I just want to know that you are safe so baby please call me often and let me know that you are safe." It sounded so arousing initially. I actually took her in the laboratory of her dad's pharmaceutical company. I cannot blame her though. I had half the female population drooling over me when I proposed her. I always thought she was the chosen one for me I was looking at the masterpiece of the glass of water that I have now created which was both colourless and odourless when a strong waft of scent attracted my attention.. I immediately looked at the source of the lemon and fruity mesmerizing scent and was shocked to see a 5'7" beauty. Hell! It is unfair to call her a beauty.  She is a completely new upgrade of being beautiful. Her fair porcelain skin shone like pearl, her golden orbs that were wide open showed that she knew what she wanted and her thick dark curls falling on left of her shoulders enhancing the beauty of the pink and blue dress she wore over a pair of jeans, a little strange though that she pulled a pair of jeans under an Indian kurta yet the curves of her body were perfect bulged just a right places giving just the right hint of what lay beneath but yet there was a preeminent feeling, a recognition. Some unknown force playing in my mind that however virtuous it felt admiring her there was a dash of being sinful in it. Her oval face did seem familiar but I couldn't point out yet. However the boring concoction of water and salt and pepper long forgotten, an amusing interest was now developed in observing the skinny beauty that sat a table ahead of me. Soon she had a company. Really Beauty and the beast [Hoor ke saath langoor] and the beast was nowhere the ugly prince, he was like a nerd sidekick from a movie of superheroes dressed in bright yellow shirt and tight leather pants. Leather pant? Really! His leather jacket rested on his left arm. I puckered my lips 'so he was here to impress' However certain distaste filled my mouth I mean could you imagine, this girl looks like she had class, some taste and I am not talking about expensive brands or model. She could wear a simple cotton dress and still look most beautiful girl in the universe. But who takes a guy with face of an egg yolk as a boyfriend. The egg yolk guy smiled so brightly that the candle lit restaurant seemed to ablaze with fire. He was about to greet her with air kisses that the girl dodged with a shake of hand. Few interactions later where the egg yolk guy was talking as if he was the latest news reporter and the girl stood like a non-interactive screen taking in one way conversation. I went back to my glass of salt and pepper concoction. "Sandeeeeep"  Shit! Taking other half of my name in an infinity shriek is bad news "Where have you been?" What? I have been waiting here for 45 minutes. But I dare do not speak, its hazardous. Well on second note she wont let me speak "Are you even carrying your cellphone? Have you deleted w******p application? Were you chatting with someone else? Why have you removed the last seen' option from your w******p? Are you really interested in me? Do you even love me?" Gosh how can someone complain so much? Trying to zone out of the series of complaints, I switched to something more entertaining Yes the animated egg yolk and the beauty in blue Whoooiiissssh' I let the puff of air with a non-identical, unidentifiable sound from behind my throat; the beauty in blue however realized that I was looking at her and stared back at me. I immediately recoiled myself but still staring at the golden hues not able to keep my eyes off from her She stared for a moment too long and then widened her eyes as if realization hit her, like she'd recognized me all of a sudden and then shrugging her shoulders she pretended to concentrate on the egg yolk guy, her disinterest in the fellow quite obvious. "You haven't ordered anything? I am starving" Genelia continued complaining. "Oh Hello!" she waved her hands in front of my eyes blatantly. "Are you even listening to me? Do you even care?' she huffed in annoyance her delicate hands with long nails painted red always rested on her waist, her next step was to pick my phone and check the texts. See "she b***h slapped my iphone, w******p with her picture showing series of text Babe miss you Babe meet you soon Desire restaurant Be on time Reply me  Okay I want to kiss you now Bought a new dress and a match pair of thong you'll love to undress Meet you in few Might get late Have you reached Answer my text Where are you Bad traffic No parking space Can you come at parking  REPLY WHERE ARE YOU I SWEAR I AM NOT GOING TO SPARE YOU IF YOU DITCH ME FOR WORK ????? ?????????  SAN SAN???? SANDEEEEEEEPPPPP Okay there were almost 150 unread texts by her. And if some sends 150 texts in a span of one hour, what do you expect and again... Just like you guys,  I repeat just like you guys.. The only text that I read and I could recollect was something related to undressing of thongs. Rest were so repetitive and her usual self that I had been only answering with a half hearted love you' See I am seriously trying to work on this relationship But whom was I fooling? She dumped her Guess clutch on the table, yes I know this was the original guess clutch because she made me buy it for her on our first week anniversary. I still remember the dent in my pocket.. Okay my debit card..., cashless transactions!!!!! She stared at me with her big blue eyes that naturally enlarge whenever she is angry and if I am not wrong her ears were spitting fire from both the sides. And my my did she look dangerous? 'Yes yes baby" I tried to calm her down "you need to relax" I pulled her to sit beside me "Calm down your throat might have dried out by now. Drink some water" "Ahhh!" she took a deep sigh and a tinge of smile might have appeared "thanks baby. I really needed that." She started taking quick gulps of water. "O" right that was the shape of my mouth when I realized that this was the same water that I had been doing catering experiments of salt and pepper with. And as expected a huge fountain of splash landed on my face. Yeah yeah it was disgusting but contrary to what had happened with me, I was laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Having the hysterics of laughter Laughter of my life.. I know you guys are judging by now But honest to my god, I wasn't laughing at Genelia who was vomiting her guts out. Well I could have helped but ... Apologies, sorry, my bad I was more attracted towards the happenings of table ahead of me. Where the girl in blue had lifted the whole bowl of noodle, strangely they were red and threw it upside down on the head of her date okay date seems too executive  So we'd stick to egg yolk. So egg yolk was sitting with his eyes closed, tight lipped and sagging with his head covered with thin slimy noddles hanging on his head and the bell peppers red and yellow scattered everywhere as if tiny colourful flowers perfect for egg yolk, I swear if this was used as a cartoon character with tiny earthworm kind creatures splattering down his head, he'd be a great hit amongst the kids. And so I was laughing. Well deserved though, he was no match to the beauty in blue "Now I get it why aren't you bothered about my discomfort and this" she raised the glass of salt and pepper concoction "whatever it is. You did it on purpose?' her eyes widened in shocked as she lifted the two containers and slapped them to my face repeating "You did it on purpose right?" "No Genelia , I was only ..." too bad I couldn't keep my eyes off at the drama that was unfolding on the table ahead of me. "Sandeep' she yelled my actual name, my real name with right phonetics. She never does that. Her fury had now accelerated to warning levels I knew this was bad. Clear sounds of warning beeps were now echoing in my head She had my full attention now. "I should have known. You'd never change. You are staring at the girl. Why was I expecting anything from you?" she was upset now "why did I ever believe in you? I should have known you have the reputation to keep. Sandeep –the charmer.' She stared between me and the girl in blue. And I followed her gaze only to lock my eyes at the beauty in blue. There was strange kind of magnetization in her goldens that I couldn't keep my eyes off her and couldn't but stare back as she was yelling at the egg yolk. Again the gut feeling of cognizance still persisted. "You know expecting from you was wrong." She struggled with her ring finger and even though it was hurting her, she still managed to get rid of it. Now don't blame me, I escorted her along and told her to pick the right size but she insisted that she'd joined some belly dancing class and was going to lose still some more weight so took a size smaller. You can imagine the rest. I immediately slapped my hand on my right eye. Why?  The throw of ring was bull's eyes by her as the huge diamond, her choice landed with a thud right on my eye making me wince in pain. Who breaks an engagement like this? So much drama!!! "Genelia I can explain." I pulled her again. Thanking the waiter for bringing another round of fresh lime soda and pepsi for Genelia. "please have pepsi. We can talk.' "This is not diet pepsi" she shouted as if the can was a live grenade "You really are not putting an effort in this relationship. You need to learn. You need to be more considerate about my likings, my choices." Beauty in blue was marching out but stilled for the roles were reversed. She was now the audience of the drama on my table and I couldn't help but stare back at her trying to link the familiarity. "You are an useless, moron" this was Genelia and it was my turn to close my eyes and sag since the can of pepsi, non-diet can of pepsi was dropped upside down on my head drenching my hair and face leaving a sticky slimy feeling on my skin. And angrily she marched off like a bullet from the pistol. Did I take a sigh of relief? Before I could answer my own question a loud and clear applaud grabbed my attention. "That was quiet a drama Sandy" the girl in blue stood right in front posing a handclap and smirking at me trying to very efficiently control the laughter that was ebbing on her face. Realization stuck me like thunder lightening. "Sandy " she knew me and we have been acquainted earlier "Sia" I shouted standing to offer her a hand for a formal greet.
