Isa looked at her hand, tightly holding Jacob"s hand and she quickly shrugged it away, feeling embarrased. She did not realise, she had been holding his hand, all this while. The old lady"s teasing smile made Isa blush deeply.
Jacob looked at the girl"s red cheeks and stepped forwards, towards the lady. "Yes mam! I am her boyfriend! How do you find us, as a couple!"
"Very nice. A good looking couple. You will have good looking kids too." The old lady smiled, handing over two library pa.s.ses to them.
"Thank you mam." Jacob smiled, looking teasingly at Isa.
Isa wanted to poke him, but she rather could not help but look at the boy in surprise! She knew he was only teasing her, but this was the first time she had seen him smile like this. It was even more sincere than the previous time he smiled. "You can actually smile!"
"Yeah! Even I am surprised. Let"s go my girlfriend!" Jacob smiled at the girl and followed her towards a transparent door.
He looked at the retreating figure of the girl, thanking her in his heart. Even if they never met after this, he would never forget her selfless efforts!
Isa scanned their entry pa.s.ses one by one on the lock and the door flew open. They both entered the gigantic library, while Isa moved straight, Jacob was now almost dis-heartened. What am I doing here? What is this girl upto?
Isa halted and turned her head to see Jacob standing at a far distance, looking at the library, with a doubtful face. She walked upto him and held his hand again. "I guess, you give me no option but to hold your hand again!"
