AUTHOR'S NOTE:

Thanks to everyone who have been supporting my story. It means a lot to me.

Everyone who reads this chapter, please leave a comment so that I can read your book.

After two months, I am bit free now so let's conquer wattpad like we used to have it in our control.

Even though this heavy cold is troubling me with coughs, even though my friend had to remind me of all the academic things I have to do.

I still have some research works to do which is equally demanding but not too harsh on me.

This chapter is dedicated to Suganthii who wrote a great book. Who is the winner of #yourstoryIndia and literary a star.

There are many great books on wattpad but I could relate to your hero only akka. The last chapter you updated on 'not an simple engineer' made me remember my past. The fights he has with his sister made me smile at my sister who was beside me. It was just like us.

It's a privilege to know you.

Don't forget this guy....This is my request ;) just kidding. Go to great heights and be a published writer akka.

Please guys, spend time to read her works too.

I don't get much banners and all like other readers but I get something more big.

Love, care and affection but also a book on me.

Thanks to Sharulajai akka for writing it and saying I inspired you to write it. And for naming me as the hero.

I don't know how much you will do for me... you have done some huge things for me.

It's just rice. Hasn't he seen rice? His question was definitely funny and I had to hide my smile so that he wouldn't notice it.

If this is a pick up line then it's the worst.

My voice was heard after I could hide my laugh, "Do you have brain or something? It's just rice. Go and ask that you need rice and they will give it."

His voice showed his uneasiness, "Then I think my mom is the one to be blamed. You make it sound so simple. Do you know how my mom said it?"

He took his phone and played an audio where his mom was giving him instructions to buy rice.

Did his mom give audio instructions or did he record it?

This made me laugh and I heard his voice in between my laughter, "I could never understand her so I used to record it and listen to it again and again. I won't understand even after that so I used to call her from the shop and ask for instructions again."

I understood it after the second line itself even though it had more than 20 lines. There are many female CEO who manage the company more efficiently than men but there is no man who manages a house like a woman.

And Varun has proved it today.

I went and took a double deer Briyani rice. I gave it to him and his face fell. "How did you understand what my mom said in twenty lines just after hearing two lines?"

I smiled at him and said, "Your mom wanted to buy Briyani rice, she said that in the first two lines. There are two famous brands which sell Briyani rice which are double deer and India gate. She told you to buy India gate, if there is any offer on it or else buy double deer."

He finished my words, "As there is no offer I bought double deer."

I raised my eyes brows as he said 'I' for which he replied, "I can't say about you to my mom now, right? Or do you want me to talk to my mom about you?"

She caught the way he said 'talk to my mom about me' which was like talking about their relationship or something. So her voice was stern again, "Do you think I am like Jennifer? I am not going to fall for those kind of words."

His reply was heard by me while I was picking the ingredients which I needed, "I know that you are not the girl to be impressed by those, at least not now, as I have seen your eyes."

Even I was startled by his words. When did he see my eyes enough to look at that. His voice answered, "I don't have to look at you for years to say this like in books. These eyes are so small, we don't need years to memorize these small eyes."

His hands went to my eyes and rubbed my eye brows and then my eye lids. He was touching them while murmuring loud enough for me to hear, "Such beautiful and powerful eyes."

By this time, we were in counter. Varun said, "I know it's gentleman's duty not to let a girl pay but as you have bought enough to open a new departmental store, I am not a billionaire so I can't be a gentleman now."

I was not offended but felt happy hearing his jovial talks. We payed and when we reached outside he said, "Well, where is your home?"

I had decided to talk less with him so I just raised a eyebrow and he quickly replied, "I wanted to walk you to your house."

I couldn't stop myself from questioning, "I don't need that. Just before few minutes you said, you won't act like a gentleman."

He replied, "I said that I can't actually be gentleman like in many ways which demand more money. There are only few gentleman ways which don't need money and walking you to home is one of them,  so I don't want to miss it."

I was still silent so he continued, "I don't want to get a bad name in history that Varun left a girl who looks like an angel from heaven, to walk alone on the earthly roads."

I shook my head while smiling, when he replied, "I would have at least stopped if your face was not smiling, but it is, so lead the way angel."

I ignored his nickname for me and started to walk while he walked with me. Suddenly, I remembered the way he was walking beside me when I was shopping.

It reminded me of how my dad and mom used to walk when they are shopping. They used to walk beside each other and my mind reminded that we walked exactly like that.

Like a family. 

There are times when your brain acts stupid and this was one such time for me. It compared me and an unknown guy with my mom and dad who knew each other for years.

I am walking and he too is just walking. I could even say he was following me. But if he follows then he should walk behind me, not beside me like now.

He suddenly stopped and I begged my legs to continue walking, but they stopped too, against my command.

If my legs are not obeying my command then whose command are they obeying?

I turned and took a glance at him. He was watching Jennifer who was in her boyfriend's hug. He was smiling at them and I couldn't stop myself from smiling too.

I stood near him in a way that our hands brushed against each other. His voice brought me back from enjoying his warmth, "Do you think they have shared their first kiss?"

I felt disgusted when he asked that so I walked away from him, but he caught me. I walked faster because I didn't want to walk beside him. He was just like that guy.

He doesn't know to impress, but knows to kiss and all. Varun wants to know about the kiss only. His voice brought me back to real world, "What happened? Why are you walking so fast?"

I turned and faced him. I had my hands on my hip which was just like my old principal, "Why were you interested in their kiss? You guys think about kiss only. He said that he can't understand her at all, but wants to kiss her."

Varun sighs and says, "I asked it just to know where their relationship stands now. I have to agree that it is bad of him to say that but I won't blame him. Movies only show that. No movie says the feelings and struggles of a girl but only her body. Few books have done it but boys don't read much books."

His explanation kind of cooled me down. I was feeling guilty for shouting at him. After all he was sweet to me. He nearly walked me to home but still didn't hold my hand in his hands, but only my groceries.

He didn't take any advantage of me at all, but was sure a gentleman to me.

The biggest necessity of a gentleman is he shouldn't take advantage of any girl's problem.

Varun was sure a gentleman in this.

He continued while we started walking as usual, "He might not know how to impress her but he knows how to love her. He will be more true to her. I won't say that he doesn't have any desire to kiss her. It's just fact. Man will feel that on his girl. Don't give much importance to it, it's just nature."

We reached the street of my home and I didn't want my parents to see me with him so I extended my hands to get my groceries which he was carrying.

He didn't ask anything, as he understood. I asked the question which was bugging my mind, "What was the difference between my eyes and Jennifer's?"

"Her eyes has a peace which would make you feel things which are good."

"What about mine?"

"It has the power to make any men go on his knees before you, for your love." He said that and walked away leaving me blushing.

AUTHOR'S NOTE:

How adorable is Varun IN THIS BOOK?

I know how most of you feel about REAL varun. XD

How are his words?

Boys don't have much brain like girls to be frank. Girls are always more intelligent than a boy of the same age.

What do you think about Varun's words on saying how girls are projected in reel world?

I accept his words. Only few movies show real girls others are girls whom boys want to see.

Take care be safe and stay blessed.
