A W K W A R D

Waking up to the sound of my alarm clock especially on a Monday morning wasn't A favourite thing if mine, so when my alarm beeped I being me decoded to act ignorant towards the voice and continue my slumber.

However my extended sleep was short lived as I felt a whole lot of water thrown on me, my face to be exact.

"What the actual damn fuck!" I sounded so mad with my voice husky from sleep, such a great combo.

"Goodmorning?" standing in front of me Laksh trying to look as oblivious as he could.

"Lakshya you are in deep shit right now," with that I bolted from my bed while he also started running down stairs.

"Gini, it wasn't too bad," he said still running, now around the sofa set.

"It was. You don't mess with my sleep. You don't mess with anyone's sleep," I mouthed angrily.

Changing my running tract, I went to the kitchen to wipe my face with a towel and picked up a cold water bottle from the fridge on my way.

The shit is going to be real. Smirking I started running towards Laksh again.

His back was facing me while he stood there panting from running continuously. Patting his shoulder, he turned towards me when I emptied the
whole bottle on him.

Seeing the look on his facewas priceless, his shirt was wet, water was driping from his hair. I couldn't control my laughter seeing his state while he glared at me.

"You didn't," he started angrily.

"Oh, I just did," I said with a smirk backing away from him in the process.

"Ragini Kapoor you--" he was cut off by the door bell sound. Assuming that it was someone delivery guy as both my parents and Sanskaar were at work, Laksh decided to head upstairs and change his now wet shirt.

Glancing at my appearance before openingthe door I was pretty much not happy to say atleast, I was wearing a tank top and shorts and my hair was all over the place plus I hadn't brushed my teeth yet.

Thankgod for a good morning breath.

Opening the door I come across to a couple of people dressed extremely formally.

"Are you Ragini Kapoor?" One of them asked while the others had their eyes trained on me.

"Ye-yeah," I stuttered, I mean opeing the door to five men and one women; unknown I might add. Anyone would get scared. Thankgod Laksh was there upstairs or else I would have actually peed my pants.

Exxageragation

Laksh please come down.

"So can we come in child?" The women spoke while the man nextto her offered a smile to me.

Battling whether I shoud allow those complete strangers to enter my unarmed house, they sensing my thoughts spoke,

"Ragini we are from the royal house," the women answered once again.

Ooh-kay. Laksh please don't come down.

"Now can we come in please?" The man next to the women spoke.

"Yes sure," I made way smilingly.

Only the couple, as I assumed entered while the other men just stood outside as I closed the door.

Sitting on the sofa they started at my appearance, not appealing I mean.

"Ragini, you can sit too," the women said.

Placing myself on the seat infront of them, I started fidgeting with my fingers.

"See, I know you might be wondering who we are," the lady spoke with a huge smile onher face showing her set of perfect teeth. I mean how can someone smile all the time.

"I am," I tried to sound as polite as I could.

"We are the king and queen of a part in India , I mean I did think that you would recognise us but I see not," the man, the king spoke.

Okay. I should start reading newspaper and researching about the world. I am quite oblivious to my surrounding.

"I am sorry, I ain't a fan of news and stuff,"

Speak about awkward

The queen laughed while the king smiled. "Thats not an issue child. We are anyways here to discuss about something," the King said turning serious.

"We heard about the editor's case, and how you stooped the matter from grwoing and creating and upsurge here,"

"How did youknow?" I questioned without giving a second thought. Could Laksh tell them?

"We have guards here, for the prince's safety," she said.

I assumed that they would try to hide the fact the prince is actually in Mumbai, but it was the opposite.

"We are here t0 thank you for your act. You saved our son's secret and his chance for living a normal life. Do you happen to know who are son is?" The Queen asked acting all curious all of a sudden.

What should I say? Yes I know your son, who is pretty much my boyfriend and yes is upstairs? Or should I say No I have no clue who your son is?

"I do-" before I could complete my statement, the great Lakshya Singh decide to grace his presence.

"Gini, I am never wearing your brother's shirt. He keeps them in such a mess I mean," I turn to see him walking down the stairs completely oblivious to my guests, examing the shirt in his hand and shirtless I might add.

"Gini-" he finally raises his head and acknowledges the presence of his parents.

A look of shock and confusion washes over his face while he quickly wears the shirt, which he just said he won't wear.

Saying that Laksh wasn't the only one shocked was an understatement. His parents were double actually in triple shock and continued to stare at him while I tried to control the smile that threatened to show on my face.

I mean only I will laugh in such a serious situation.

"Mum and Dad?" Laksh said seeing them and then turning his gaze towards me.

"Laksh? Would you mind telling me what are you doing here in Ragini's house?" His mother asked smiling.

Thankfully it wasn't just me who wanted to explode laughing.

Laksh opened his mouth to reply but closed it again thinking something. He moved towards them rubbing the back of his neck, trying to answer the question.

"I am waiting," she said again chuckling. She obviously would have put two and two together but it would be so awkward to confirm her doubts I mean its not an everyday deal that I meet the King and the Queen and inform them about me dating their son.

"I like her," he said as quickly as possible while his cheeks turned the lightest shade of red.

He was blushing, how cute.

"And," the Queen continued while her husband smiled at me which I nicely returned.

"We are dating," he continued while the redness of his cheek darkened.

"Finally!! Did you hear it finally. Oh you have no idea Ragini for how long I have waited for this day. My baby is dating, praise the lords. I am so throwing a party, I mean its not an everyday thing when Lakshya informs me that he is dating. I am so happy," she said wiping the imaginary tear from her eye while she hugged Laksh tightly and then moved towards me engulfing me in a tight hug too.

"Ragini, my child I am so happy, so is my son a good kisser? He is a good boyfriend right? Does he trouble you. You can complain to me I will take care of him," she continued while the King bursted laughing while I chuckled nodding my head.

And Alex had fully turned red, " Mom!"

Talk about awkward.
