Chapter 5

*Amrin Pov* 

I slowly opened my eyes and saw that he is already up working on his laptop sitting on the chair near to the long window. 

“Good morning!” I mumbled, sitting up while he glanced at his watch for two times already before I can say those words. 

“Good morning!” he wished back before doing his work, but again checked his watch. 

“Is there any problem?” I asked him, frowning tying my hair. 

“I am waiting for the maid as it is time for my morning coffee.” he replied shaking his head and just worked on his system. 

“She will be removed from today right? Shall I give you your coffee?” I asked him controlling my yawn. 

“Sure! But it should be like I ask you to.” He replied and gave few instructions regarding how he likes his coffee. 

I nodded before walking inside the washroom to brush my teeth and then left for the kitchen. It took me a few minutes to search the ingredients, and then I mixed everything like he instructed before pouring it down in a cup and also in another for myself. 

I took a sip only to put it back hating the bitter taste. I added a few scoops of sugar into mine and then took the two cups near to him, noting the cup which is for me. 

At the same time, the bell rang, so placing the tray on the table I left to open the door after telling him what cup he needs to take. 

I opened it to see a woman in the thirties standing there with a frowning expression looking at me. She just walked inside before I could stop her and took steps towards the kitchen. 

“She is here!” I said, entering the bedroom, and he nodded, getting up to walk outside and I followed him. 

“You need not to work in this flat from today onwards and keep the work to the remaining building.” He said reaching near the kitchen. 

“But why, sir?” she asked and then glanced at me. 

“Do I just have to give you the reasons? You are going to reach my mom to give the details about her.” He stated, and I looked at him in surprise. 

“I…” she stuttered and then looked down. 

“Give your card to enter the private elevator and be happy that I am not removing the other half of your work.” He said in a hard tone, and she nodded before leaving. 

“I need to search for another maid.” he mumbled under his breath. 

“What? But I said I will do the work right?” I asked him, frowning while he ignored me walking towards the bedroom. 

“If your work is going to be like this coffee, then I don’t need it.” he replied gesturing at the cup. 

I took a sip of it and then said, “This is my one and yours is that.” 

He frowned before taking the other one and took a sip. He slowly nodded and sat down in his chair. 

“I told you which cup is yours before stepping outside the room.” I said sitting in the chair opposite to his and continued to sip from the coffee I made for me. 

“I have no intention to stare at you whenever you are before me right? I was working then how could I know for sure.” He said in the same hard tone making me realize that he doesn’t like if someone points out his mistake. 

“Ok!” I simply said and finished my coffee, staring outside through the window. 

“What is your name?” he suddenly asked, making me cough. 

“You already forgot?” I asked him with shock evident on my face. 

“Full name!” he corrected. 

“Amrin Shah.” I replied, smiling at him, and he nodded. 

“What is your full name?” I asked, looking at him. 

“Dileep Vishwanth!” he replied while I added, “The Prince of Ivaan.” 

“You seem to be very comfortable near me so soon.” He added ignoring my words. 

“I had to! I am used to this with meeting new people and getting to know them and also leaving them when they had to leave.” I said sighing a little. 

“I have three brothers and one brother is married. I run the corporate business while one brother is in politics, and the married brother is in the mining industry. Dad looks after the good relation of our family with many important people and mom help Dad with that.” He said, and I nodded. 

“I had a foster family whom you must have known a little about. I have a close friend, and that’s all.” I said understanding that this is where we will be telling about ourselves briefly without pointing out the obviousness of it. 

“Boyfriends?” he asked generally. 

“Had one, but is now married.” I replied and he nodded, not asking more while I didn’t even try to repeat the question understanding his history. 

“Why did you choose me?” I asked him still not understanding his reasons. 

“For some reasons, I needed someone, and you were there. You too need some help, so I thought it would be better like this.” He replied shrugging. 

“So, we can be distant like this until the reason passes away?” I asked him and finally he looked up from his laptop. 

“No!” He said in a serious tone before looking back down. 

I took the cups from the table and left to prepare some breakfast. After preparing it, I walked back to see him selecting the dress he would be wearing today while I asked him at what time he wakes up everyday. 

He calmly ate breakfast neither complimenting nor bashing it, so I am at the safe place right now. He was about to wear his tie, but got a call making him attend it and also manage to wear it on his own. 

I forwarded my hand and took it from him while he struggled for a little. Standing on my tiptoes, I passed the tie around his neck and started doing a loop. 

He suddenly stopped talking making me look up at him only to see him already staring back at me. Before I could step down and move back, he circled my waist hauling me to him and pressed his lips to mine. 

I blinked at him while he just continued to kiss me, and I kissed him back slowly. He released me after a few seconds and pushed up the loop without saying a word. 

When he started walking away, I stopped him, saying, “Wait!” 

“What?” he asked back, but without replying, I adjusted the collar and nodded at him. 

“I thought you were here for another kiss.” He said and walked away saving me from blushing in front of him. 

He is definitely better than my Ex-boy friend, but I cannot fault him as it was his first kiss too, like me and we just let the small attraction speak between us. Whereas the person here knows what he is doing. 

I shook my head, removing all the thoughts and walked into the kitchen to wash the dishes and also prepare lunch for both before walking inside the bathroom to have a shower. 

“Hello?” I said, lifting up the phone. 

“I will reach by six'o'clock, clock and we will leave by seven. We should not be late.” He replied. 

“Lunch?” I asked him after saying that I would get ready before that. 

“I already had mine with the clients. I do not have it from the flat, but sometimes I do.” He replied. 

“Ok!” I said, and he hung up while I simply had my lunch. 

By the time he entered the flat, I finished the cleaning and even had a bath but didn’t wear the dress making him frown at me. 

“Why are you still not ready?” he asked in an impatient tone with no signs of the encounter from the morning. 

“I will soon!” I promised, walking inside the closet after he left to have a bath. 

God! How did she zip this dress? I asked loudly inside my head and continued to find a way to zip it up and turned around to see the closet door opening. 

“Did you pick the suit for the occasion?” he asked frowning. 

“Yes! I thought it would help you to get ready.” I replied. 

“Do you need help?” he asked not saying whether the choice is good or not making me realize that he is not good, with compliments, too. 

“It’s ok!” I said, shaking my head. 

“We will get late.” He said and finally I turned around. 

“Do you think this gown will be appropriate for the party?” he asked pulling up the zip. 

“I don’t know! But if it is not, then you will tell me right.” I replied turning around. 

“You didn’t do any makeup?” he asked, and I shook my head to which he nodded and kissed me holding my face. 

This time too, I felt the surprise, and before I could react, he released me and walked outside saying to get ready soon. 

I brushed my hair and placed it as a bun safely before applying normal lipstick I bought at the boutique and also eye liner remembering his words not to apply too much make up. 

“I am ready!” I said walking outside holding the empty clutch that came along with the gown. 

“Let’s go then.” He said not so surprisingly saying anything, and we both left the flat and reached the garage through the private elevator where the driver is already waiting.
