Saksham readied himself up and looked in the mirror. The clothes that would look loose on him now looked perfect for his body. Due to the buffing up of his body, every piece of cloth looked like they were made to be worn by him. Ordinary light blue jeans looked very trendy on him. The simple white T-shirt wasn"t able to hide his perfect muscles. Even Saksham felt he was falling in love with himself."Wait. That"s wrong. I love Anitha! Yes! Anitha is my true love! Saksham, I am sorry but I will have to reject you because I already have someone in my heart. Although you are too handsome to be true, you still can"t compare to Anitha." Saksham thought narcissistically.
After a few more glances at himself in the mirror, Saksham took out his phone and called Anitha. After telling her to wait for him outside, Saksham left his home in a hurry. He can"t let her wait for him for a long time. After about 5 minutes of speed-walk, Saksham finally saw Anitha standing under the shade of a tree. Looking at the ethereal figure of Anitha, Saksham"s walking pace slowed unconsciously. Anitha was wearing a light black top with a long floral skirt. She had done a light make up, making her look even more beautiful. Her long and silky hairs were tied into a wavy side ponytail with side bangs. She was even wearing a light pink lipstick. Seeing this, Saksham couldn"t help but lick his lips. He really wanted to just jump on her and kiss her. But he shook his head and once again looked at her dreamily. He was left speechless by her beauty.
As he reached her, Saksham came out of his daze and smile brightly at her. Then he kneeled on one knee, disregarding the weird gazes of the pa.s.serby, he slowly reached out his hand towards her and said, "Shall we go, my princess?"
Anitha"s cheeks became red with shyness. She also reached out her hand into Saksham"s hand and said, "Yes, let"s go."
Saksham stood up and took the lead in moving. Holding Anitha"s soft hands, Saksham said, "So, how about a movie first and then we can have lunch and then some shopping. How about it?"
"Sounds pretty good. Looks like my knight has already thought out about everything." Anitha smiled.
"Of course I would think about it. After all, it is our first official date." Saksham grinned.
Anitha held his hand tighter as she looked at him with tenderness. Saksham suddenly felt b.u.t.terflies in his stomach when he saw that look in her eyes. He hurriedly shook his head and asked, "Well, I actually forgot to ask you. How did your JEE Mains Exam go? Was it difficult?"
"It was pretty difficult for me, but I did attempt all the questions in it. Although the teacher told me not to attempt the ones which I was not completely sure about, I couldn"t help it. Most of the questions in it were difficult but manageable." Anitha said.
"Oh, really? That"s great to hear. After all the practice and study you did, I won"t be surprised if all your answers were correct. I have also been studying pretty hard lately. I am done with the course for Boards examination. Now, I will start studying for JEE Mains. As I promised, I will go to the same university as you." Saksham said as he held her hand firmly.
"Don"t push yourself too hard, okay? Keep a tab on your health too. Studying is important, but I don"t want you to get sick or anything because of that." Anitha said with concern.
"Don"t worry. As your boyfriend, If I can"t even pa.s.s the JEE Mains exam, then it will be a real disgrace for me. So, I will do my best for this goal." Saksham patted his chest.
Anitha snickered as she saw him puffing up his chest. She suddenly came beside Saksham and stood on her toes and lightly pecked his cheek. Now waiting for Saksham to respond, she stood aside and acted as if nothing happened. She spoke lightly, "This is your reward for all your hard work."
Saksham heard this and touched his cheek where he could still feel the wet touch of Anitha. He looked at Anitha with a hint of playfulness in his eyes and said, "So, does that mean I will get a reward If I successfully pa.s.s the JEE Mains?"
"If that is what you want, then I will generously reward you if you successfully clear the JEE Mains exam," Anitha said bashfully. She played with her hair as she looked down. Seeing this, Saksham"s heart started beating wildly again. He chuckled wryly as he thought how many times was he going to be entrapped by her beauty.
Saksham still had a playful smile on his lips as he said, "But this time, the reward should be given here." Saksham pointed at his lips and smiled at Anitha. Anitha also understood what he meant and didn"t dare to look at him. She just "hmmed" nasally and looked at the ground as she walked.
Saksham was also excited when he saw her agreeing to his words. He couldn"t wait for the day he successfully clears JEE Mains. Just thinking about it made Saksham"s mood jolly. Soon, they reached the movie theatre. Saksham pulled Anitha to the furthest back seats at a corner and sat down beside Anitha. Anitha sat along the wall of the theatre while Saksham sat beside her. Before the movie started, Saksham ordered a big cup of Popcorn and gave them to Anitha. Seeing her puzzled gaze, Saksham opened his mouth and said, "Ahhhh~"
Anitha also snickered as she saw Saksham"s childish behavior. She picked up popcorn and slowly pushed it towards Saksham"s mouth. But just as it was about to enter his mouth, Anitha suddenly took it back and threw it in her own mouth and laughed sheepishly. Saksham pretended to be hurt and wiped the corner of his eyes. Anitha laughed at his poor acting and picked up a popcorn again and said, "Come, ahhhh~"
Saksham once again opened his mouth, but after waiting for a few seconds, there was still no popcorn in his mouth. Looking at Anitha"s constant moving mouth, Saksham realized he was fooled again. This time, Saksham "hmphed" and turned his head the other way, his action clearly saying "I am angry. Coax me fast". Anitha also stopped laughing and looked at pouting Saksham. She poked his puffed up cheeks lightly and said, "Sorry na. Come say ahhhh~"
Saksham still didn"t look at her. Anitha also stopped to think for a moment. Suddenly, her eyes brightened as she thought of an idea. She smiled playfully and poked Saksham"s sides. She knew Saksham was very sensitive to these pokes on his sides. And as she expected, Saksham suddenly jumped from his seat, disturbing the people around him. After apologizing to everyone, he sat on his seat once again and looked at Anitha with a grudging look.
Anitha also didn"t hide and stared at his dreamy eyes with a gentle smile on her face. Seeing this, Saksham shook his head and smiled too. Anitha poked his nose and said, "Come on. Say ahhh~."
Saksham opened his mouth and Anitha fed him a popcorn gently. After chewing a little, Saksham once again opened his mouth and said, "Ahhhh~"
Anitha smiled gently and once again fed him a popcorn. For the course of the whole movie, both of them fed each other popcorn, not paying the slightest attention to the single dogs around them. In fact, since the time both of them started this act, the man sitting beside Saksham wanted to shout to the heavens, "G.o.d! Where is the justice in this?! How come a kid like him has a beautiful girlfriend while the only lover I got is my right hand?!"
