Dua rizvi. Your taking to long." Armaan yelled from the door. He was wearing a white shirt with superman logo on it and faded jeans.
"Just five more minutes. Wait." She yelled climbing down the stairs.
Armaan looked at her climbing down. She wore a cream colour gown with long sleeves and a matching color hijab. Armaan was watching her each and every move as she come down. But she didn't made her to him instead she went into the kitchen. That made armaan sulk a little.
"Yes. And also take care of the house." She said coming to hall again with maid behind her."and call me if something's off. You have my number right." She said looking back at her. The maid just nodded at her.
Dua made her way to armaan. "Let's go" she said. Armaan smiled and shook his head at her.
He began to walk with dua behind her like a lost puppy. He opened the shotgun door for her. She rolled her eyes at him and sat in. Armaan jogged to the driver's seat and hopped in.
He began to drive. A silence sat in the car. Both of them waiting for other to speak first.
"Were exactly are we going to" dua said breaking the ice first.
"Well. It's a restaurant of my friend. It's quite famous." He said and she just nodded at him.
Dua began to look out of windows watching the seen passing by.
Armaan pulled into a parking place.
" we have to cross the road." He said turning the engine off. Both exited the car at same time. Dua made her way to armaan's side. There wasn't any signal so they had to cross in between the moving cars. (A/N:India roads) they were waiting for a car to move. Armaan grabbed her hand and began to cross the road. For a fraction of seconds dua's body froze on his place but since she wasn't interested in getting hit by a car she began to move along with him.
But she actually felt an heart attack when he kept holding her hand even after they reached.
A woman came an met them at the door, she kept looking at armaan. Intensity. Dua was watching it and was getting irritated. She wanted to wave their holding hand in front of her. To claim something. Seeing that the lady isn't speaking anything he decided to spoke first.
"Table for two."armaan said.
The women recover quickly and began to escort them to a table. They both sat and armaan left dua's which he didn't knew he was holding. Dua began to miss his hand seconds later it left her.
She cleared her throat but it was more her self. Armaan awkwardly scratched the back of his neck.
"Let's see. What we can order." Armaan said flipping through the pages of the menu.
Dua followed the same.
"I'll select the dessert. The rest is with you to decide." She said.
A waiter came and took their orders.
"Dua" he said.
"Huh" she said still looking around the hotel.
"Seems like you don't want to go to the college." Armaan said.
A scowl formed on dua's face. " they already hired a substitute for a month. And exams are starting soon so don't need me anymore. I think I have to join directly for the next academic year." She said.
"It's alright. You must enjoy your holidays." He said.
It made her scowl deepen. " I get bored alone at home. And you ask me too enjoy." She said.
"Hey. If I were you I would have do all the things I wanted to but could never get time for it to do." He said looking at her.
"Something I didn't had time to do." She said as she began thinking about it.
"I always wanted to learn how to bake." She said as she remembered watching millions of cake baking video but never attempted to make one.
"See." Armaan said smiling at her. She looked at him and asked. " what's something you wanted to do but never had time to."
"Me. I think I would probably go for holidays in Bahamas" he said without thinking much.
