Point of view: Bela's POV....
••••••••
I get up to the blaring sound of alarm and get up covering my head with pillow. God my head is hurting so bad. Bela fucking Sharma you know that scotch doesn't suits you still you have gulp it down. Wow. Just fucking wow.
I immediately run towards kitchen like a chicken running away from a butcher. Wow it's rhyming. But fuck it i need water.
I quickly have a glass of water and then I go towards shelf to take out coffee. But. God. It's over.
I was seeing from few days that my groceries are running out but I was too lazy to buy them. And since now coffee is over, it's high time to go for grocery shopping. Thinking this I call Savannah my secretary.
"Savvy. Babe I will come late today."
"Yes ma'am sure. But any reason?"
"Yes that i am starving and i have no food so I need to put on a crop top and damaged jeans and go for begging. Such a lovely reason.", I sarcastically said.
"That was awful ma'am. I mean I could have agreed to you but you are too pretty to become a beggar.", I hear Savvy chuckling from other side. Yes I am pretty and I know that.
"Yeah I know. But I am sexy too. So I can try being a stripper I guess?", I reason pursing my lips to keep control on my laughter.
"Ma'am please don't be this ridiculous in early morning.", She literally laughs her ass off.
"Yeah suck it up, you buttercup. Bye. And don't get laid today because all work is upon you.", I said ordering before disconnecting the call.
Then I quickly dial another buttercup to ask her to accompany me to grocery shopping. Or I should say to lead it since I have no idea of what to buy. I just keep my groceries filled as a decent kitchen should have.
Yeah decent kitchen, of an indecent bitch who doesn't know how to cook.
As I dial Vish, she picks it up after three attempts.
"Hey Vish. Mind accompanying me for grocery shopping?"
"Grocery shopping? Wow so eventful!", She said when sarcasm was evident from her voice.
"Yes. Please.", I make a puppy face but i know it's of no use because she can't see me.
"Bela see. I love you to death, but I am having cramps and I am really not having the courage to walk in the whole fucking mall and at the end buying a trolley full on Nutella,coffee, and cup noodles.", She said literally in one breath. Making me laugh my ass off.
"Okay you bitch. Enjoy. Bye", Saying this I disconnect.
Then I check my contact list only to see Vyom's name there. No way in the fucking hell am I gonna call him. Savvy? No. Who will handle work then? Then I stop on seeing a contact there. Mahir. Lol. Why would he come with you Bela? He is businessman and like hell he will accompany you to grocery shopping. Lol. Bela, time to bear with it alone. Hope you return in one piece from it.
Then I quickly grab casuals, that is first pair of jeans I got, with a tee and a jacket fixing my hair in a messy ponytail. And then i left quickly driving my car.
As I reach the mall I quickly make it to the grocery section. I start walking in different sections only to realise that I forgot to take a trolley. Wow Bela so smart of you. Please note my sarcasm here.
As I went to the trolleys and tried to get one, my hand landed on a hand in attempt to take the same trolley by mistake. I looked up at the person only to find the person I actually wished to see today. Mahir. Am i dreaming?
"Hey, you here?", He said when surprise is visible on his face.
"Yes. Hii. I had to do grocery shopping. But anyway I didn't expect to see you here."
"Why? Am I not allowed here in supermarket?", He said narrowing his eyes at me in an amused way, making me chuckle awkwardly.
"No but. I thought multi-billionaire business man Mahir Sehgal? Why would he accompany me to grocery shopp—", and i said it. God. I wasn't supposed to say that I was actually thinking of him to offer me company.
"Ohh you wanted my company?", He smiled and continued,"You should have told me Bela. But see the coincidence. Heli is out today and i had no meeting so I thought I should do grocery shopping today, because apparently I cook so I know what to bring."
This made me smile. Not smile. Grin. From ear to ear. Because even i have no idea what to dump in this trolley while grocery shopping since everytime i used to bring Vish, Vyom or Savvy.
"Okay then Mahir. My guiding Angel. You need to tell me what to get in groceries since I have no idea.", I said grinning when he nodded chuckling and took out two trolleys from the queue and pushing both for us when i take one mouthing a 'I can do it' and then I start following him like a lost puppy in the cereals and eatable section. I eyes everything he gets into his trolley and then I take the same while rolling my eyes. Then seeing this he chuckles at me making me rest my head on his shoulder sighing tiredly. And then we were talking like that, me leaning towards being tired and he was picking up two packets of same thing, keeping one in his trolley, and other in mine. Trust me, grocery shopping for me has never been this smooth. And then we go to the cold section to get refridgeratable eatables when I give my trolley to him asking him to wait for me for a minute.
I quickly make my way to Nutella jars, chocolates, candies, coffee, cup noodles and what not because i know I am gonna survive on them no matter how much groceries I fill because I be too busy and almost out everyday to hire a helper, and cooking is not my cup of tea. So taking them, I go towards Mahir who was waiting for me holding my trolley. As soon as I dump the things in trolley, he looks up at me amused.
"You gonna eat all that?", He asks amused.
"Yes, any problem?", I said grinning.
"No. But I should take appointment from a dentist in advance because you will need a dentist soon when I am actually getting to see your obsession for chocolate based things.", He wiggles his brows saying this making me frown.
"Very funny. Now what?", I said frowning when he purses his lips to keep himself from smiling.
Then still frowning, I make way ahead and he follows me still laughing, when I finally glare at him.
"No matter how adorable you look while smiling, I would still throat punch you if you keep on making fun of me.", I warn him when he puts a finger on his lips finally.
Then I eyes him for a minute, and unknowingly my lips curved into a smile and i ruffled his hair out of fun when he pouts at me and starts moving his hands in his hairs like a typical teenager, making me chuckle.
"You both look cute together.", We hear someone say only to see an elderly lady almost of 50 years in age looking at us with her husband probably. Are they mistaking us as couple?
"We were just like you both in our days. And she always used to ruffle my hairs whenever I pissed her off.", The elderly man said. Yes they did mistake us as a couple. Thinking this I look at Mahir only when he looks at me too.
"No we are not couple.", I corrected.
"Oh really? Then you both will be one very soon. Good luck with that.", The woman again said blushing and smiling at us and then they left leaving us dumbfounded. And that's when we again look at each other.
"I guess aunty just assumed not knowing us.", Mahir broke the ice saying this.
"Yeah. Let's go to other section.", I said faking enthusiasm only to make the situation lighter.
But I didn't know next second it will become more awkward, As I quickly go ahead and make way towards personal care section. There as I was passing by the section, I picked up some packets of sanitary napkins and dumped it in my trolley, when i turn to leave only to bump to a hard chest. Mahir. It's him. I look up at him hesitantly when I see his face flushed already. And I look at him confused. And then it strikes in my mind. He was following me when I came here and he saw me dumping packets of pads in my trolley. And probably he thinks he shouldn't have.
I quickly back off and act normal by smiling to make him comfortable.
"I am sorry. Um. I didn't mean to follow you. Sorry."
"Mahirrrrr. It's not a big deal. It's fine okay. I guess we are done with the shopping?", I ask when he nods in yes.
"Come to the billing counter. Let's get them packed. I am hungry too.", I said enthusiastically when he smiles nervously and we go towards billing counter.
With this encounter I can see how shy he really is and cute at the same time.
