Cloud again leaned against the couch....."I mean it, what I said. And If you ever sad again then you will see. You know what I'll do, I'll through a shower of jokes on you until your face not start hurting badly with laugh".

"Don't give you any gaurentee whether they are funny or extra cheesy. Got it. So It's all upto you". He laughed.

A smile flowed on her lips and happiness was glowing on her face......"Thank you so much for your concern".

"But I think this time you take a bit tough task". Kaira giggled and crossed her hands over her chest.

He arched eyebrows....."Don't challenge me. I'm Cloud, I can do anything what ever I want .

He proudly laughed. "So don't you dare to take me lightly and.. ......".

Kaira was there just quitely staring at him the way he was talking, the way he was smiling and deep dimples appeared on his cheeks, the way he was a little arrogantly telling about himself and his blue eyes. Kaira was just lost in him.

And next thing happened to her, as always, she zoned out in her thoughts. There was something that pleased her but also there was something that discomforted her.

She deeply sighed, abruptly spilled out...."You are so different. Your not as I was expecting but still..".

Might be she forget, she was not the only one alone in that room and already said enough loud.

Cloud stopped. "Sorry".
What you just said....."you are so different. Your not as I was expecting but still ".

"You just said that a second before. What's that mean . Were you ..were you expecting me something else" .

Cloud narrowed his eyes and raised his index finger...."But wait, hye.. we met very first time just few hours ago. So how can you know me".

Kaira came back with her stupid trance, she got nervous. She didn't know what to say.

"Well .. I'm..I. I ....". She stuttered.

A smile plastered on his face, he raised an eyebrow....."Well .."

Right then Archer entered into the room.

"Cloud, you must play Edward's ps game" he shouted.

"Believe me Cloud it was really fun. I never saw something like that before, you must try". He was beaming with excitement.

Cloud didn't answer him, he was just curiously watching kaira.

Why are you so smiling and what  two were you talking about". Archer sat next to him.

Archer looked at Kaira. "What happened Kaira. Did I miss something". He was looking back and forth between Cloud and Kaira.

Kaira was looking every where instead them and there was an awkward embarrassed expression on her face...."No! Nothing".

"What happened?" Archer asked.

"Really?" Cloud said with a smirk
"I was I.I...."She started coughing.
"Yes. She was telling something interesting" He claimed.

"What? I want to know". Archer protested.

"Tell us kaira and why are you so much shying. You are scaring me what is in your head". Cloud smiled playfully. 

Kaira was staring at them nervously. She can't tell them that she had always seen Could in her dreams for many years and it was looked like they know each other very closely.

She thought ...."even we were.. we were looked like.... kind of.. sort of like L..Lovers...."

"I mean I can't say exactly but it felt like, something like... ". She was debating herself.

"if I tell them the real truth which I never ever tell anyone before, instead Jennifer. Well Jennifer is a sweet heart. She never told anyone else about my dreams and never laughed at me. But I know. if I tell them, they are not going to believe me".

"While I'm damn sure after this Cloud even make more fun me all the time Or maybe he will think.... I'm some kind of a freak weirdo".

Cloud was continuously watching her moves through those pearcing curious blue eyes that made kaira hell nervous.

She was completely out of thoughts, she didn't get any way to come out with the situation.

She was not getting what she should explaine them. "Which  she just claimed stupidly about Cloud out of the blue". Those thoughts made her face red .

"My..my throat get dried". Kaira said and stupidly laughed

She took the glass which was on the living room table and she  gingerly put the glass to her lips and drunk the whole water.

Suddenly an idea just clicked in her mind that might be save her. She put down the glass calmly.

Kaira waved a hand mockingly, she was trying to show them she was absolutely fine. There nothing wrong at all.

"Ohh! That's. Nothing special, once I was talking with Windalen casual talk and then he mentioned about you, not much just few things, you know. So I was expecting your nature something different". She finally explained.

"And what exactly you were thinking about me". Again an amusing smile trailed on his face. He crossed his hands.

"What.." She blinked her eyes.

"Why are you so smiling". Archer looked at him.

"Thoughts". Cloud said.

"Who's thoughts". Archer asked curosily.

"Your thought". Cloud looked at her.

"M..my thoughts". Kaira blinked at him.

"Yes. Your thoughts. About me". He grinned.

She gulped a lump in her throat and opened her mouth which she herself didn't know what but luckily cut off by Sera.

"Come you all. Its too late. You'll talk later but right now let's go and taste some delicious foods which we have made for you all". Sera said happily.

"I'm dying, I can't wait let's go mam". Archer said.

Why both of you calling me mam... Call me Sera". Sear laughed.

Archer and Cloud nodded.

"Let's go then I can't wait any longer". And Archer gave his cheeky smile to Sera.

"Yes..yes of course". Sera smiled back.

Archer walked off along with Sera towards dining table, Cloud was some steps behind them, so there was enough space and kaira was just behind Cloud.

Cloud turned ...."Later. But don't think, I'll forget it ".

He smiled and knowingly teased her again and pointed at her cheeks.... "by the way, why is your cheeks get red ".

Kaira blinked, she cuped her cheek......."my what ..my cheek....my cheek turned red".

"You blushed so easily " He laughed.

"Ohh! Nooooo thats.. N.not blush. That's because of hunger. You know I'm so..so.. so hungery right now thats ....that's why perhaps my face turned red". She stupidly explained.

"Really that's something new!" He laughed out loud.

"Why are you always making fun of me" Kaira made a annoying face.

"Okey! I'm sorry. Let's go and eat full plates of delicious meal. Right". And raised his hands in  his defense.

Kaira nodded. "Yup.. Right".

They just walked towards the dining table

~~<❇❇>~~

Everyone was sitting around the table. David was in the middle, Sera was immediately left to him, lane was immediately right of him. Jhonathan was sitting next to Sera and Cloud sat across him. Archer sat next to Cloud and Edward was next to him. June was sitting next to Edward and his next was Kaira . So kaira was sitting between June and Jonathan and diagonally to Cloud.

They all were talking and bantering with each other.

"So Cloud how's your world look like I means, it is seems like ours or much morden or totally different as we saw in so many alien movies". June asked casually.

Kaira spat out food through her mouth and got chocked. Jhonathan quickly rubbed her back....."Are you alright ".

June gave her full glass of water...."drink it you feel better".

"I'm so sorry ". Kaira sheepishly said.

Edward was laughing hilariously. "Ohh! My god! June you just called them Alien. Then we should case on those useless directors, who are scaring us by showing their movies of those creepy, dangerous and disgusting aliens".

"What is alien? " Cloud asked.

Archer opened his mouth to say something but David cut him off. "Cloud and Archer you both no need to take him seriously. Let it go this matter and enjoy the meal".

" Dad". Edward groaned.

"Please it is enough for a day" David glared.

Stop your interrogation and jokes, finished your meal and then go to bed. It's already mid night. Get it". David said.

Cloud looked over Kaira and smiled when he caught her again staring at him.

Archer whispered. "Why you so smile around Kaira. I never saw you this way ever before with any girl not with Zinta. I mean, You never showed interest in any girl even to those girls who were showing their interest in you from years .

Kaira rolled her eyes around table they all buzzy in their talks and the meal. She slightly leaned more towards table, tried to eavesdrop on their conversation. She knows it was wrong but she wanted to hear what they were talking about because she heard her name .

Cloud wisphered. "Please! Everything is fine, I was just teasing her. Why are you bringing Zinta all of sudden".

"What please! I never saw you like this around Zinta. You never tease or talk her like this, today you were doing like flirting with kaira while you always annoy Zinta. You don't know much kaira but you seem so comfortable around her". Archer cleared his point.

Spoon dropped from her hands and fell on the table .

"What happened, your face seems pale". Cloud asked.

Kaira immediately veiled her emotions through her fake smile....."Ohh! It's Nothing, Sorry, I'm so clumsy".

A pain was deepening in her heart when she heard another girl's name from his mouth. Her heart got heavy, she felt like her appetite gone. She couldn't sit there any longer. Her hearts was atching by her name every time he mentioned. Because he was talking about her like he knows her very well..Or maybe more than that.

Kaira walked over to sink and put her plate there.

"What happened sweety, you didn't like the meal". Sera asked with concerned.

"No mom all were delicious but I'm totally exhausted now. I want to go in my room and want to get some sleep ". Kaira tiredly said. Whole time she didn't look up, she quitely turned and walked away on her heels.

She fell on her bed and covered herself under the duvet. She was trying to sleep so she could shut her mind which was keep thinking about her .... the girl.... Zinta.
