It's strange when you have to live with someone you hate but she looks like she's out of a fairytale book.For a second it seemed like I'll fall in love with that smile but just the next moment I remembered that I detested her. "I've informed the cable guy and you'll get your Tom and Jerry, so don't bother.", She said smoothly, definitely happy that I, Neil Jason Parker, of all people complemented her." Yeah. ", I said and got up from the bed as she walked out of the room towards the kitchen. Smiling away.I too followed her and was delighted to find pizzas on the dining table! " You bought them for dinner? ", I asked her. " Yes.. Like them? ", she asked. " Yes! Definitely!! ", I said and sat at the dinning table to eat. I think that's the best thing I have done after coming to India. It wasn't long before I had eaten my pizza and Akansha was still struggling with the third piece of hers. " I give up..! ", she said at last after having the very last piece. She then looked at
It was ten in the morning when we set out.I wore a casual white t shirt with a red jacket over it and denims, Akanksha had picked a satin off white shirt with black denims.We sat in the car.The plan was made.First we were visiting the Victoria Memorial to remember how awesome the British are (It's sarcastic by the way). Then for lunch we were visiting a mall and after that we would go for a boat ride, and then back home..! A perfect day!It wasn't long before we stood in front of the magnificent monument made of white marble. Ah! I love British architecture so much! At the entry gates there were two lions sculpered on both sides, the ticket booking counter on one corner.Akanksha asked me to stand as she went to get the entry tickets. I watched her go.There was something distinct about her.People weren't wrong when they spoke of Miss Goenka having an undeniable charm. She, the owner of a billion dollars company, stood in the line for tickets. I drew in a deep breath. It was a
We were at the food court. I was busy eating my burger when I suddenly noticed Akanksha staring at me, while eating. She had been staring all along, ever since I presented the rose to her.I looked her in the eye and she immediately looked away. I gulped down the last bite of my burger and then asked," Am I looking odd or something? Why are you are staring at me?"" No.. No, not at all. You look perfect. ", she said, immediately looking down, blushing slightly.She was definitely taking that rose thing in the wrong way. I quietly pulled my chair right beside her, picking up my glass of coke. I reduced my voice to a whisper, " I know what you are thinking."She immediately looked at me, now on her side."Look Akansha, I guess you are taking this whole rose thing wrong. I did not give it to you because I'm in love or anything between us has changed. She asked who made my life better, and literally you did it.. I mean by getting English channels on the television, I mean. It's not rom
I regret doing several things in my life.. One if them being waking her up because mosquitoes were biting me."Neil Jason Parker, gimme a break, okay?! I am tired and I don't care if mosquitoes bite you. Anyways you think you are as hot as a vampire, so maybe strike a friendship with them!", She shouted irritably and then went back to sleep.I looked at her awkwardly before I left.The Hundred and Fifty Shades of Akanksha Goenka. Nevertheless, next morning she was back to normal (if she wouldn't have been back to normal, it wouldn't matter to me, anyway haha). After bolting down my breakfast and watching Game Of Thrones, I realized how bored I was with my life. I was in this huge apartment, alone, with an Oxford degree doing nothing significant.I immediately sat up on the sofa and decided to go to the head office of Goenka Industries, Calcutta.I wore my clothes, a leather jacket on my white t - shirt and jeans. I knew it was warm outside and I'll look like an idiot, but that was t
We were back home. It was around nine. She looked really fatigued with the day's events. I wasn't exactly tired. Unlike Nerd Goenka I had always been much for active in travelling and partying.She went directly into her room throwing her handbag on the floor. I had realised that Akanksha's mood would really go from bad to worse when she was tired. Like a good boy, I picked it up and placed on the sofa." Are you fine? ", I asked as I walked in, she was lying on the bed still in those clothes." Yes.. Yes I'm fine. It seems like I did too much work today. Could you just get me some water? ", she asked.I immediately got some water in a glass and handed it to her.She sat up, heaving a sigh, and sipped on the water." Thank you so much. ", she said looking at me gratefully." You are welcome. ", I said with a subtle smile and turned to leave."You look handsome when you smile.", She said handing the glass back to me, "Instead of looking like an angry goblin all the time you should smi
" Because..", she begun,She cleared her throat looking straight into my eyes."I am not entitled to answer you!", She said abruptly and stood up. I immediately walked up to her and pulled her by her arm. She bumped onto my tough physic."You will answer me.", I said strongly.Tears started streaming down her eyes as she tried to move away."You want to know, right?! Then listen.", She said pulling the neck of my t - shirt."Mr. Neil Parker. The hot and stunning boyfriend of a girl who looked like a complete pig! I mean are you freaking blind?! I hated your closeness with Rosaline. And yes! I had a crush on you but I did not know that I'd fall for you!", She said and paused. She gulped, looking down and continued as I felt her moist breath on my chest,"You remember that night?", She looked up, with teary eyes, looking straight into my eyes, "The farewell party? Yes, you got drunk in the party! I did not scheme or plan anything! It was you who walked up to me. You yanked me by my a
We were soon in the office and I was allotted a cabin. It was right beside Akanksha's. The name Neil Parker, Assistant Managing Directed, engraved on the door.I sat back onto the recliner, comfortably."You like it, sir?", Akanksha asked smiling at me."I love it, Ugly ducking.", I said flashing her my annoying smile."Huh! Goblins are uglier anyways.", She replied with her 'oh so smart' smile. I sat up."Why can't you keep your hair open?", I asked sighing, looking at her neatly pony tailed hair."Oh God, Mr. Parker I am at office. This is not your park for romance..", She said, smiling amused, "You are such a kid sometimes.""Keeping the kid in me alive. Always.", I said proudly."Sure.", She said, with a beautiful smile.She turned and left.I sat there thinking about her, not that I was missing her, not yet. But her behaviour this morning was a little strange. I had to find out.. After all I had read the whole Sherlock Holmes series - I must have learnt something.But well, at th
I ran out hastily, my heart thumping loudly in my chest. By the Grace of God, there was a yellow taxi waiting. The Goenka Industries was not at much of a distance from the airport. I was there soon to find a huge crowd in front of the smoky building.I ran.. The Fire brigade had just come but they hadn't gone in, still trying to extinguish the fire from outside.I pushed through the sea of people and moved to the front. I met a familiar face, Akansha's assistant. I asked her if Akansha had come out," No Sir, not yet.. ", she continued with something more but well, I being a superhero as I considered myself, wasn't going to listen to anything extra so I decided to take matters in my own hands. There were fire brigade people guarding and not letting anyone go in. There was a "do not enter" tape placed like a boundary. I crawled in from below it. And without turning back, I ran into the building.. The fire was huge and the whole building seemed to be affected by it.There was a huge eff
