Their table was soon set, and the mouthwatering aroma of stake assaulted their nostril. Nima raised her eyebrows when the server left, and she took in the contents on the table. As well as the position of the stakes.“I assumed you ordered the side dish, so I ordered the main one cause no way you are having onion rings for dinner.” Joel said firmly. Nima smiled softly. “You have ways around words, Joel. But I do agree I'm loving what I'm seeing.” She said.“Common, let's dig in.” He urged. They both eat in silence, but Nima loves his every gesture. He had tentatively diced her stake after pulling her plate to himself. Nima couldn't take her eyes off him while he pretended not to notice until he was done.“I'm hot doing that, aren't I?” He joked, and Nima smiled softly before starting to eat.The food was delicious and the atmosphere peaceful.Nima's heart swells with emotions. There were lots of them.Is this what she has been missing? Going out and trying nice restaurants with fr
“No no please stop.” Nima was holding her stomach while holding out her hand to make Joel stop speaking. She has laughed so much that her stomach now hurts. Thank God they had later strolled inside the park to sit on a bench before he got to the silly parts.Apparently, Joel had not found the opposite sex attractive in his teens. He began to wonder if his fellow men would be his choice of companion. Then he had some issues in his gut, making him unable to pass out stool. After taking medicine and instructions from his mother, he was able to successfully attempt it.Like Joel had said about him being an expressive storyteller, he wore every expression he discussed and imitated every action he had done back then.Seeing him clenching his hands to gesture how hard he struggled to push out the stool, Nima was near dropping to the floor and laughing her heart out.“Please enough.” She managed to plead.“Are you okay?” Joel asked.“You are so shameless. You've ruined my makeup.” Nima com
Joel carefully assisted the old woman on the swing before realizing her feet were dangling, and although eager to get on it, her body tense and hand shook as she struggled to maintain her balance on it.“Grandma, I don't think this is a good idea. You could fall.” Joel worriedly said, not daring to let go of each side of the seat to keep it balanced and not throw the woman off.The old woman, however, laughed in delight. “I did it. I told her I could do it.” She exclaimed in joy, not realizing Joel was the one keeping her stable. “Hum, how about you come down?” Joel's eyes darted from Nima, who was staring at them from where she sat and the old woman giggling in triumph. “No no, my dear. You can leave now. You have done an amazing job helping me.” She replied, but Joel didn't dare let go.Distressed by the stubbornness of the old woman, he began to regret helping her when she heard a frustrated tone from behind him calling out to the old woman.“Grandma!”A beautiful young woman cam
Nima and Joel walked to where he had parked his car, and they settled in.She smiled at how he had opened the door for her like a true gentleman and helped fasten her seat belt.Nima had noticed while they walked to the car that he constantly mumbled something under his breath, which she had asked to confirm if he was saying something to her, but Joel said he hadn't said anything. A little restless at how the rest of the night will proceed, Nima decided to say something to break the still mood.“Was the old woman alright?” She asked.Snapping out of his thoughts, Joel glanced at the temptation beside him and nodded.“She's cute, but too daring. I nearly had a heart attack when she was about to fall.” He replied before asking something that made Nima grow confused.“Where do you stay, Angel?” Turning to look at him, she met his gaze that was fixated on her. Her heart skipped a bit at the realization that he was planning to take her home.What about all the talk that he wants to spoil
To think a highly respected demon would be subjected to being controlled and choked with so much work.Gama's life since the few days he had inhabited the body of Chris, the A lister actor could be summarized in one sentence. Work, travel, work more, and travel more.A bad timing he had called it, as he came into Chris's body when he was at the peak of a movie shoot.An action hero movie at that.To make the matter worse, the director of the movie wasn't someone who likes taking unnecessary breaks in between shoots.He prefers they devote their time to complete the shooting and take the necessary rests afterwards. Gama finds himself working hard. He had contemplated snapping the neck of everyone and just searched for Nima, but a rational part of him took control.He wasn't sure what situation he would encounter Nimalaya in, and one thing was sure about how the universe operated.Everything happens for a reason.He hadn't chosen the body but was randomly thrown in it.His current fame
Nima's call connected to Emily's line, who looked annoyed before picking it up.“Hello?” She inquired to Nima, who sighed into the phone.“Emily, we need to talk. My brain feels like it's going to explode.” Nima said.“Nimalaya, I'm busy at the office. I will see if I can stop by tomorrow, as I plan to work through the night today.” Emily responded.Nima was silent for a few seconds before asking her to sleep early and to take care of herself. Nima dropped the call with a strange expression on her face.She was used to Emily appearing like a phantom upon her calls that having been rejected a meeting on the day had rubbed her in a weird way.She told herself it's normal. Emily has her own life too and shouldn't be available for her all the time.She had those thoughts, yet it stung at her heart that she wasn't a priority anymore.The Emily she knew would drop everything at hand and rush to meet her, especially when they were meant to gist about how her date with Joel went.……….Upon d
After they finished their masters and graduated from school, their relationship continued, as although they hadn't shared love, they did share their body for such a long time.Attachment was bound to be a thing between them, even if it's just for the benefit of the flesh.Joel had felt everything would continue the way they were until Anna had broken the news to him that she would be travelling out of the country for additional studies to be able to take over her family's corporation as she was an only child.Joel had been indifferent towards the news but realized how devastated Anna had been.She has let her emotion seep through her usually indifferent face and cried a lot. She claimed she didn't wish to part from him.Joel had asked why she would not want to.She had always known what her family had in store for her. “You're such a cruel man, Joel.” She had said to him, which confused him deeply. “Anna.” He had called, speechless by her word.“So, you won't miss me? You can't even
It was 5 pm in the evening when Nima heard her doorbell ring.Still deep in her thoughts, she glanced toward the direction of the door with a blank expression. She wasn't expecting any visitors and hadn't ordered anything. Her neighbors knew she hates interacting with them, hence making them take their conversation elsewhere, so who could it be?She wondered as she decided to ignore it, but the person turned the handle and found it locked, and the doorbell was pushed once again.Nima got up and walked towards the door. She peeped through the camera lense attached to her door and suddenly looked taken aback.She hurriedly opened the door to reveal Emily, who wore an impatient expression on her face.Before Nima could ask her how she was suddenly at her place after she had rejected a meeting with her a few hours ago, Emily held her hands and dragged her towards the chair, while saying “what took you so long to open the door.”As soon as they settled on Nimalaya's Couch, Emily probed,
