Kaya POV
I woke up from the continuous snooze of my phone under my pillow. I saw it was an alarm, get down from bed rubbing my eyes and went to the balcony. I could not see anything due to dense fog. Suddenly, I saw a shadow in the fog coming closer in the backyard. Slowly the shadow gave me clear vision of face.
Zaan came wearing a black leather jacket and blue denim jeans. His face looks so adorable as his nose is red cause of cold. Today, the admiration for him has increased. He kept the chocolates and went back to his home.
I went downstairs slowly but before I could open the back door, I saw my grandfather is sitting and reading a newspaper. I waited for a few minutes, then swiftly ran towards the swing.
I took the chocolate, hide it behind my back. I enacted normal in front of my grandfather. I wished him the morning and helped to sit on the wheel chair. I went upstairs where everyone was sleeping, I took the advantage and went in my room. I kept the chocolates in my cupboard.
I replied to Zaan message,
I took it and thanks for the heart chocolates.
The chocolates were expensive, I felt bad that he spent so much money on me. It was a box of heart shaped chocolates wrapped in a golden wrapper. I was eating this type chocolate the first time. I ate a few chocolates, which quickly melted in my mouth. The chocolates were too delicious and crunchy. I was eating the chocolates in my room, suddenly my mother came with books of my younger brother to keep it on his shelf. Her eyes dropped on my chocolates, I got scared that she would question me about these chocolates quickly I gulped my nervousness.
She came near me and kept her hands on the chocolates.
"From where you get these chocolates”,She asked me, notices the chocolates in my hand.
She picks up one chocolate and tear the wrapper and took in her mouth. Slowly she chews the chocolate and her facial expression says that she liked it.
"I liked the chocolates," While chewing, she said.
“My friend gave me yesterday in the school, I forgot about it”, I quickly replied half smiling.
She nodded her head and took one more chocolate. She went from my room. My shoulders relaxed that she did not question me more.
I shared the chocolates with everyone but my mother liked it very much. I thought chocolate was not enough to show him that how much I admire him. I really liked him but I want to wait for a few more days. I decided to give him a yellow rose and a card.
But couldn't make the card during day time, if someone saw it. Then there would be millions questions and doubt about us. After everyone slept, I stay awake and started making a card for Zaan. I wrote about our friendship and care.
Next evening, I kept the yellow rose and card behind the swing.
I message Zaan,
I have surprised for you, which I kept behind the swings. Take it please. ~K
What is it? ~Z
See it yourself. ~K
After so much convinces, he agreed to take it. At night, he took the card and the yellow wilt rose.
He messaged me,
Thanks, I really liked it. ~Z
I replied,
Welcome. ~K
I hide your card and rose in my old bag to keep it secure with me forever. ~Z
He he, ok now sleep, I will message you in the morning. Sweet dreams. ~K
Sweet dreams, Good night. ~Z
Zaan POV
I came back from the playground, saw my elder brother.
He was fuming over anger,
“What had you asked”?
I frowned looking into his eyes, “What I have asked?",
“You have asked a new mobile which we cannot afford right now”,he replied in anger.
“Yes, I want it after my final results," I replied with stern voice and calmly.
He got furious and left the room, slammed the door heavily and went away. Our relationship was not good from younger age every time we quarrel for small things. Being an elder brother he always thought to dominant around me who I could not tolerate.
My mood got spoiled from this argument. I lay down on my bed and took out my phone and message her. She was only the person that can change my mood by her talks.
Are you free? ~Z
She replied after and an hour,
Yes, had you eaten? ~K
No, I don't want to eat. Please, don't irritate me right now. ~Z
What happened? ~K
Nothing. ~Z
Now say what happened please. ~K
I had an argument with my elder brother. He always tries to do dominance. ~Z
He has every right to say you. He is older than you, so he has to look after your house too. ~K
ok, I understood. ~Z
I wanted to tell you something. ~K
What? ~ Z
I like you Zaan. ~K
Stop kidding. ~Z
I am damn serious you silly, I like you, I like you. ~K
I like you too. I am so happy now. I awaited for this day. Thank you. ~Z
I was on nine clouds after her confession. I really awaited for this day. I did not think that suddenly she would confess of her feelings. I am so lucky to have her. Not only she gave me her confession but at my every mistake she made me understood and helped me to do the things correct. She is a pure gem by heart. We chatted for the entire night as tomorrow early morning she would be going to her mother's grandparent home. Sadly, today only our relationship started, and she has to be apart from me but I will wait for the face to face confession. Today I really want to hug her tightly, but instead of her I am hugging my pillow. Every time I feel to hug her but instead of her I have to imagine this pillow as Kaya.
Now again, I have to wait until she came back.
