He came out of the shower..skin still wet..she can see.. still the drops dripping from his hair."Gosh.. he has grown so much..." she thought. Just a few moments ago, she was standing in front of his bathroom door..teasing him from outside.. "Come out naa... how long you'll take to become handsome ?? Don't scrub yourself that much.. you 'll get vanished..." she giggled. He was getting flustered inside the bathroom.. though the cold water was running on his face and body.. he can feel his ears getting hot. "What is with this girl? How is she talking to me? We have not met for years now..and she still is behaving as if she is so close to me .. and does she even realize that we are all grown up now.. not children anymore?? " He quickly finished his bath and came out. He knew that she was going to visit him that day...after all, he has come here all the way from Bangalore to Delhi to spend his holidays. He was expecting all the people he know, to visit him.
When in morning she called and told him she is coming to visit him, he took it as any other visit. Lazied around the whole day.. went to take bath just in time of her arrival... and... here she is standing in front of him now... pulling his leg and teasing him and getting so comfortable with him. Looking at her, he was thinking .. "does the time really moved between years when we have not met??" because for him, right now it feels.. as if it is the same two kids playing with each other .. so comfortable and casual.. like best buddies...only that.. she has become a woman now... and that too killingly beautiful.
As for her.. she just stood there in awe...although she has seen so many guys earlier..she even in her imagination has not seen more handsome guy than he is... and with his wet skin and drops dripping from his hair he was looking no less than Adonis. "Oh my God...what was i doing???" she was feeling shy now... " I was having this image of him... as we were kids .but look at him now.... pheewwfff... " she tried to hide her nervousness and wiped secretly the drops of sweat came on her forehead.
Sitting in the living room she was waiting for him to say something.. but his mind was somewhere else. She was getting somewhat angry.. " I 've come all the way to meet him.. and look at him.. he is not even trying to talk to me.. back in college and every where else too ...boys just die to catch a glimpse of me.. and i never give them importance..and here.. i came all the way especially to meet him.. to be with him... and he is not even considering to look at me .. ". " What the hell.... let me start the conversation.." she thought. "So??? how are things? How are your mom and dad ..and your sister??" " Oh, every thing is good.. they all are good too" He just shunned her question.. giving her a one line answer.
" Where has bhabhi gone for so long?" he was thinking. "Its been more than two hours now..and she has not returned yet.. she told me she will be back in half an hour..." He took his mobile and dialed a number... " Bhaiyya ...bhabhi is not home yet.. just see if she is ok..." ." Hmmm... so this is the matter..mmm..he s also caring " she was impressed even more... and that very moment bhabhi arrived ..all exhausted by shopping... "Oh., I went a little ahead.. sorry to keep you guys waiting..." then she quickly went to the kitchen to bring refreshments. Now she can see he is much relaxed now. He shifted his focus to her... "Well ... so... where were we ???" "Damn u ..we were nowhere .. we have not even started talking yet..u idiot" she thought.. but gave him a fake smile pretending to be normal.
They didn't even know how those three hours passed. Once they started talking... it was like they didn't stop for a moment... they clicked instantly. Jokes.. discussions.. gossips.. everything.. what ever was coming in their mind...they were just going on and on. Her kid brother, who had accompanied her, was playing inside.. with playstation...and they both were hanging out at the balcony of his brother's house, whom he was visiting. Their family were very distant relatives... almost more like friends than relatives. They all used to hang around together... till his father decide to move to the other city for better prospects. When his brother got a job in this city, he came here along with his wife... so again both families got in touch. This was the first time he was visiting his brother. Till now he was so busy in his studies... he hardly got any time for vacation. But this year he just wanted to take a break... and when his brother invited him... he just grabbed that opportunity.
It was a destiny may be... this way both of them met again ...after 10 long years... they last met when he was 9 and she was 13. Yes, she was four years older to him.
"Why don't you guys stay back tonight ?? " bhabhi asked her..." I 'll call your mom and ask for permission...we all will sit and chat the whole night.. it will be so much fun..." ." Not a bad idea..." she thought... "anyways its sunday tomorrow ... so no college for me or school for my brother.. this can work fine."
Late till night she , her brother, he and bhabhi... all four sat in the guest room .. comfortable on bed .. and had lots of fun. All sort of jokes and laughs can be heard from that room. Bhaiyya retired to sleep after dinner because he was very tired from his office work. Slowly as night deepened ...sleep was creeping in. Her brother was the first one to sleep. Then it was bhabhi's turn. She left to sleep. Now it was just he and her. They were still not sleepy. As bhaiyya had two bedroom apartment... all three of them...she, her brother and he... were arranged to sleep in this room. It seems bhabhi has missed this little detail that they both are not kids anymore. Letting them sleep in same bedroom can be explosive... or she might be thinking its safe because her brother was also sleeping along. Well... in any case ..they both were happy they got this time together.... they were really enjoying each other' s company.
As night progressed they started feeling sleepy. They don't even know when they both fell asleep ... talking and gossiping and having fun....
In her sleep she felt she is very close to someone...her body can feel the brush with the other body. She opened her eyes a little... his face was so very close to her.... his lips almost touching hers... but he was fast asleep. He was looking so innocent while he was sleeping... just like a baby... she got this sudden desire to put her lips on his. Secretly she was hoping... he was not asleep and he comes close to her... but damn ... he was so very much in deep sleep. She shook her head... as if she is shaking out that passionate thought about him out of her mind... and went to sleep again.
It was almost morning when he woke up. There was a slight light in the room now. He looked and there... he saw her... he can see her clearly... peaceful in sleep. Her face was bathed in the first rays of sun..and she was looking like an angel to him. He was suddenly struck with her beauty and was not able to take his eyes off her face. Till now he was seeing her as his buddy ... but now... suddenly he saw her as a woman... she turned sideways .. and the quilt got off a little... exposing her feet... he felt a sudden gush of warmth in his veins... he got all warmed and felt that chill every where in his body... he just wanted to touch her toes and her lips and wanted to feel the bliss.. put his lips on hers without even letting her know.. his mind was not working at all ... he was about to touch her.... suddenly... he heard the footsteps.... "Damn its bhabhi... why she need to wake up so early....... "
