******
"Hi." My heart jumped out of my chest but when I saw the familiar face I took a breath of relief.
"What happened?" Nikhil asked and took a seat in front of me. His eyes were filled with concern
"Nothing, you scared me," I replied by placing a hand on my heart to calm my accelerated heartbeat.
"Weren't you expecting me here?"
"Why would I?" I asked not getting what he meant.
"Damn! That hurts," he exclaimed, putting his hand on his heart. I was amused by his reaction.
I knitted my brows looking at him when he said, "Now I am not even a barista in your eyes. Oh poor lord what have I done to you that my wife neither considers me a businessman nor a barista."
That's when the reality sunk in. I was sitting in Keepers Cafe which was his. My eyes widened and I felt embarrassed.
"I am so sorry. I..I actually forgot that it's Keepers Cafe. I am really sorry." I stuttered.
"Hey...hey. It's totally fine. Y

Anvi******"Anvi, this is last.""No, please Nikhil, I can't." I shook my head vigorously putting my left hand on my mouth."Don't be a kid and eat it now," he said sternly."Nikhil, I am already full. I will not be able to eat one more bite.""Anvi, this is last." Since my hand was hurt Nikhil was feeding me and in another way, I was at a disadvantage because Nikhil tricked me to finish the whole big bowl of vegetable stew. Undoubtedly it was delicious but my stomach got full eating the half bowl only yet he didn't stop feeding me."You have been saying it for the past ten minutes," I complained. With every scoop, he was lying that it was last but the truth was something else."Yet, you fell for it every time. Didn't you?""Please." I pouted. My stomach was about to burst. I was cursing myself in the head for my carelessness that led to my accident."Fine, then. I will tell your nickname to everyone at home."

Even the cashier couldn't dare to meddle."No, I will..."

Jai whisper yelled."Both of you move aside," Even Niharika's voice was strict.Anvi and Nikhil moved aside as neither of them wanted to make their friends anymore f

Small things matter to me the most but Nikhil ruined one of my best things.I never expected such an act from him.Even though he has always been kind to me, his act was ferocious."Ma'am, I haven't received the new manuscript on mail yet.?" I heard the intern Leena who was about to assist me as my right hand was injured."I sent it to hell." I lashed out.She was taken aback for a moment and then questioned with concern"Are you fine?""Excuse Me." Without replying to her and excusing myself I went to the washroom to wash my tear-stained face.I had been collecting KitKat chocolate wrappers since I was five. It was Sara and my favourite chocolate. We had made a deal in childhood that we would collect the wrappers and would give them to each other on my twenty-sixth birthday. Even though we had stopped t

I heard my wife who was reading a thriller novel sitting on the same cozy bed kept on my favourite spot but she was sitting in the opposite direction."What should I stop, angry bird?" I asked while my eyes lingered on the laptop."The sound of the keyboard is irritating me. I am not able to concentrate," she whined. I didn't want her to be disturbed but replying to those emails was important as hell to me."Anvi, just five more mails, please.""Aghhh, No, not even one." I looked over at her from my laptop and said, "Please, don't be mad at me. Give me a few more minutes.""I am leaving," she was about to leave, leaving me alone which was the last thing I wanted."No, you can't," I put my legs on her abstaining her from moving."You are unbelievable," she said, closing her book loudly.
