"You surely know a way to convince people!" Sanyukta snorted unlady like picking up the bread from the table. She was very angry at his behaviour, oh the same old overbearing possessive jerk behaviour.

"What can I say? I am a natural" Randhir replied cockily while raising his eyebrows suggestively.

He had ordered a roasted bread and scrambled egg along with honey dips and the orange juice.

Sanyukta shook her head, irritated and got back to eating her bread. It was tasteless not the way she liked it, she hoped she was at her home now. She preferred her bread to be made into a nice toast with less butter.

Also the coffee tasted so bitter that she wanted to pour the honey from the dip and drink it but then she didn't want to have his food.

After much struggle she escaped him and showered with hot water and dressed herself. She had worn tight black jeans and off shoulder dark blue shirt that matched her blue sneakers. She knew that it was a casual tour around a huge land and stilettoes were stupid footwear to choose.

She talked with Oliver for some time as Riona was still asleep. Randhir had woken up just in time and showered himself and wore the same color long sleeved shirt and a black ripped trouser that irritated her further.

If not only that but when they had ordered for the breakfast and that cute guy had brought in the breakfast Randhir was being himself. Showing some stupid claim on her by kissing her in front of him and claiming his property as if she was his. She had been embarrassed by his act also the guy's cheeks had turned pink. He had arranged the breakfast in inhuman speed and stuttered off quickly.

"Randhir you can't kiss me in front of people, okay?" Sanyukta said seriously her tone barely controlling the anger remembering the situation. She didn't want to kiss him like she belonged to him. His kisses were intoxicating the one which made you addicted. The one that makes you crazy. She can't let him affect her once again.

"Oh Sanyukta do you want me to kiss you when we're alone?" Randhir asking smirking at the way her cheeks turned pink. It was cute. She had the fairest skin tone and whenever she is embarrassed or blushing it was clearly visible as her cheeks turned a hue of pink.

"You're unbelievable" Sanyukta huffed and stood up from her love seat. She was not at all interested in fighting with him in the morning. She settled herself in bed and opened her iPad. She wanted to talk to Riona. She opened the Imo app and called, inviting for a video chat.

After few minutes of her ringing she saw Riona still in her bed under the covers. Randhir almost finished his bread and eggs and eyed the honey dip.

He walked towards the other side of the bed and pushed the plate towards her. She ignored him as she was looking at the screen. He peeped in to see whom was she seeing, he then saw Riona. He waved at her but she plainly ignored him and looked back at her mother.

"Good morning Mummy" Riona said her voice groggy and rasped. Sanyukta smiled at her and blew her a kiss.

"Good morning sweetheart. Did you sleep well?" Sanyukta asked ignoring Randhir who was looking back and forth. Weird.

"Yes. When are you coming back?" Riona asked sitting. Her back rested against the bedpost. She was rubbing her eyes like a kitten.

"I'll be back by tomorrow morning. Now common get ready you have a fun day ahead. I have already kept your today's clothes in the bathroom." Sanyukta gave her a smile. She knew Riona would be searching the whole wardrobe and messing it up for just a single piece of clothing.

"Thank you mum. Did you pick also kept my bag and shoes?" Riona asked looking around in search of her handbag.

"Yes baby. I selected them and kept in beside the dress. And please don't dirty your dress. Also tell Martha to tie your hair. Umm...did you give Uncle Oliver his medicine yesterday?"

Randhir stared at her. She looked so responsible and a caring mother. He thought that if things would have ended differently then today things would have been different.

"Yes mum. Now I need to pee. Bye" Riona giggled sheepishly and ended the video call. Sanyukta smiled at her and then looked beside her to Randhir who was looking as if he was deep in thought.

She picked a honey dip from the plate and ate it to get rid of the bitter taste of coffee. She savoured the taste satisfied.

"Randhir I think we should leave." Sanyukta said and stood up from her seat and tucked her iPad in her purse. Due to the long straight of purse she could wear it on one side. It felt like the purse was dividing the upper half.

"Huh yes. Call the broker....Again what's his name?" Randhir asked getting up from the bed and patting his side of jeans.

"It's Mr Willie Stroker as if you'll forget the name such as that." Sanyukta said giggling at the end.

"Oh I just wanted to hear from you" Randhir chuckled as he teased her.

"Do you think he's gay?" Randhir further asked much to his amusement. He was having too much of fun to see her cheeks pink and her neck pink too.

"Randhir do you want to try your luck with him?" Sanyukta said boldly surprising him. She was embarrassed though but if he can play she can play the game too.

"In your dreams." Randhir replied and walked to find his shoes. He was going to throw them as soon as he picks some good pair for his feet.

Sanyukta took her phone from her bag and decided to call the broker who was showing the place. Oliver had taken the land along with Randhir's father from that broker. Also Oliver said that she should meet the owner and assure him the land is in the good hands.

Oliver had met the owner who was at that time ten years senior than Oliver and he was very reluctant to sell the land but they somehow convinced him to sell the land. But they didn't buy it at that time so it was task of Sanyukta and Randhir to finalize the land and start working on it.

"Hello Mr..erm... Stroker. I am Miss Sanyukta Aggarwal. I just wanted to know where are you meeting us." Sanyukta cleared her throat as she heard the little chuckle from Randhir. Surely he was enjoying her discomfort.

"Ms Sanyukta. Oh! I am sorry to say but I'm in work right now. I'll be free by noon. We'll meet at the Martin's corner."

"Okay we'll be there in time. Good bye"

Sanyukta sighed and turned back to Randhir who was looking at her. She placed the phone back in her bag.

"He's at work. He'll be free by noon and he's meeting us at some Martin's corner. That jerk." Sanyukta cursed and sat on the bed. She thought that the work will get over soon by lunch and then they can have lunch and go meet the owner and invite him to the dinner and finalize the deal but everything was not going according to her plan.

"Which means I have some time for shoe shopping." Randhir sighed and then stood up and picked the keys of the room.

Sanyukta looked at him like he had gone crazy. He wanted to do shopping.

"You want to do shopping?" She questioned.

"I can't wear these shoes any longer also it will be a good time for exploring around till noon. Common let's go" He said and picked his wallet from the nightstand.

"Fine" Sanyukta said raising her hands in air.

"This taxi driver was far worse" Sanyukta giggled as they walked through the crowd. Randhir agreed to that. After they started to bicker again about paying the fare he had been so angry that he yelled at them. He was looking funny though.

"I totally agree with you"

Randhir sighed looking at the decent shoe store. He was in some sort of market as the driver told them on the journey. It was filled with different stores. It was like a sector five of Mumbai. Many stores in same area. He walked towards the store pulling Sanyukta with him. He couldn't let her get lost in the crowd now. There was much crowd here as the fresh fishes were on sale just a road aside so the crowd was filling.

"Hey walk slowly." Sanyukta shrieked unable to match with his long strides. He simply ignored her and walked inside the store.

"Welcome sir." They were greeted as soon as they were inside the store. Sanyukta smiled as the cool air hit her body. There was too much pushing around outside and the air here also felt good.

"Madam why don't you try these? They are new design" Sanyukta heard some salesman from behind her. She turned and looked at the direction he was pointing.

Randhir attention shifted from the male section to Sanyukta who was eyeing the ankle boots kept in the display. He walked towards her and kept his hands around her waist obviously branding his property in front of that boy who was looking at her with lust in his eyes.

"Let's try it on you baby" Randhir whispered in her ear loud enough for that salesman to hear.

"Uh...sure madam you can try it" the salesman stuttered and quickly brought that boots to her. Sanyukta elbowed him hard in the ribs making him flinch at her. She did a little victory dance in her head.

"Wait let me do it" Sanyukta eyed at Randhir at his weird behaviour. She sat on the comfortable velvet seat and looked at him as he bent down and removed the sneakers from her feet.

Randhir couldn't bear the thought of any another male touching her other than him. He pulled the sneakers off her feet enjoying the touch of the of her soft skin.

He held the edges of her jeans and he heard the sharp intake of her breath. He folded the jeans up to her ankles and lifted the boots in his hand inspecting the material. Sanyukta looked towards him as he took her right leg and made her wear the boot. After securing her legs with both the ankle boots he stood up.

Sanyukta glared at him for a second before standing up. She walked towards the mirror to examine the boots. She smiled looking at her reflection and then turned towards Randhir.

"My wife likes it. We'll take it" Randhir said turning towards the salesman and give him a intimidating stare. The salesman nodded at him following with a meekly 'good choice' reply.

Sanyukta removed the boots and wore her sneakers back. She followed Randhir towards the counter as the salesman was making the bill.

"I'm going to pay my dear husband" Sanyukta sneered at him and pulled a ATM card from her purse. Randhir glared at her, he pulled her closer colliding his sides to her and whispered in her softly.

"Don't argue here baby"

She opened and closed her mouth like a fish looking at him. He voice was so sensuous and seductive making her insides clench with desire. Before she could say anything he had said something to the salesman and then dragged her towards the male section.

She stood there rooted as he left her hand and walked towards the boots area looking for his size of boots.

A few minutes later she heard the gasp of surprise from her behind and both male and female voice calling her name. She turned towards the source of voice and gasped looking at both of them.
