RAYA SS - A Simple Wish Part 6

RECAP :

They moved out of the apartment, she locked the door. Reaching the ground floor Priya was again stunned to see that there was no long expensive car, “Ram aren’t we going by car?” she asked a bit confused “ No today thought of enjoying the company of my favorite  machine.” He held his hand out to Priya “Trust me I am a good biker and won’t let you fall.” The confidence in his voice gave confidence to Priya she gave her hand to Ram.
 

Part-6

Both of them walked hand in hand up to the bike. Ram balanced the bike throwing his leg across for Priya to be comfortable while she steps up the bike. Priya placed her hand on Ram’s shoulder for support, an unknowing feeling filled Ram and he smiled in his mind. Priya carefully placed her foot on the stand and settled herself on the bike.
She grabbed the back handle for support but was still unsure. Ram noticed her discomfort. He took both her hands and encircled them around him, “Bike pe aise baath te hai Priya”, and grinned like a teen. Priya could just shy at this and mentally praised Ram ‘ Ram you care so much about be always you know what is in my mind I love you for that, realization struck again “Did I just say I love you for that” Priya you are going crazy behind a dream which has no reality. 


He is just you good friend, He is The Ram Kapoor girls drop at his one snap and you just an employee who accidently meet him. Priya was brought back by the husky voice of Ram “You settled Priya shall we leave” “Oh yes Ram I am fine we can leave” Ram placed on his shades and kicked stated the bike and drove off. 


The morning was cool and fresh as there were less traffic and pollution in the air. Priya inhaled the fresh aroma of the morning mixed with manly cologne of Ram’s aftershave. She was swiped of her feet, and bit her lower lips as again her mind wondered to the thoughts of if she was someone special to Ram, can she be his lady love….. the sudden jerk of the bike got her out of her bizarre thoughts. She was thrusted against Ram’s broad back because of the jerk. “what happened Ram?” she popped her head over Ram’s towering figure to see the cause of the jerk. Ram sighed a relief. “Nothing to worry Priya a Puppy came in the way.” Priya nodded and waited Ram to resume the drive, on the other hand Ram felt happy when Priya was shoved against him due to the jerk, he thought of enjoying it and a mischievous grin played on his lips. He resumed his drive smoothly for few minutes and hit the brake suddenly making Priya again jerk against his broad posterior. This continued for a couple or so leaving Priya bewildered ‘Ram is the bike ok ? there seems to be a problem’ she asked with tension filled voice…

Ram could not stop his laugh and broke out laughing as loud as he could at her innocence. ‘What ?’ Priya again enquire with confusion playing on her face, realization struck her that Ram was enjoying his ride pulling her leg. She hit him softly on his back ‘Ram its not fair you made me feel like a jester…huh’ and she removed her hands that were encircling him.. 

‘Sorry Priya I am so sorry’ Ram cocked head still keeping his eye on the road. ‘I was just having some fun and more over liked it when you jerked against me…’ and he continued to laugh.Priya was not in the mood to laugh or give in to his talk. She held the back handle of the bike for support and sit, but Ram being Ram Kapoor who knows to get what he want gave a press on the clutch again making the bike to jerk and make Priya fumble. Due to the lurch Priya got hold of Ram for support, to which Ram let laughed like a winner.


Priya somewhere liked his prank, it was so against his nature. Ram was famous as no fun and game type of boss at office, wanted all things to be in order even the pen holder on his desk should be in it place or the peon better start counting his blessings. Ram drove smoothly this time and within 10 minutes they were at their destination.


Parking the bike just infront of the door Ram waited for Priya to get down safely. Looking at the entry the valet boy came sprinting towards them and stood before Ram. Ram descended from the bike and handed of the keys to him. He then looked at Priya and extended his arms forward half bowing with a smiling on his face ‘after you ma’am’ Priya let out a giggle and moved ahead followed by Ram. The gatekeeper greeted them good morning and pushed the door open for them to enter the restaurant.


This was a new experience  for Priya, she has never been to such kind of restaurants before kind of ‘out of pocket for her’.  She was dumbfounded with the décor and interior. It was fully white even the floor were laid with milky white tiles where you can actually see yourself it was so nice and tidy, the aroma were a mix of fresh crushed coffee beans with the smell of orchids and lilies placed at each interval of the table. There large painting hung at the wall Priya thought sure some renouned  painters….. 

arrangements were as she seen in magazines furniture craved with rich design and wood, glass windows made the room so adorable with white curtains hanging from ceiling to the ground. Beautiful chandeliers hanging from the celling… ‘how it would look romantic at night…..did I just say romantic’ Priya knocked herself at her own thoughts. She came back from her scrutiny when Ram called her who was following the manager. They reached the table it had a card on it written reserved ‘Ram booked the place before’ she questioned self. The manage left the two at the table, Ram like a gentleman pulled the chair for Priya to take her seat, without any question she sat smiling at his gesture. Ram took his seat and inhaled a lung full of air. Priya was till in amaze that she was at the waiter came and handed the menu to them. Ram did not look through the menu and straight went to 3rd page ‘waffles as usual, with extra chocolate….and a coffee’ the waiter noted and turned to Priya who was flipping the pages to and fro ‘I don’t know what to order there are so many choices…’ she gave a confused look to Ram. ‘let me help you’ Ram spoke smiling at Priya’s innocence ‘Sure you will like to eat something light…as I know you well..’ he went straight to the 4th page and asked ‘How about grilled sandwich..’ and gave a inquisitive look at her, Priya’s eyes moved on the menu card looking at the ingredients that prepared it all were of her choice vegetables fruits the kind of start she would like to have..’ok she nooded’ and ‘a coffee’ 

Ram again asked her ‘sure’ came the reply. The waiter walked off. Priya was again looking around waiters in there penguin suit classy serving the table and the individuals enjoying their first meal of the day peacefully.


She turned her head towards Ram only when she felt his warm hands on her cold ones ‘Hey are you fine..’ ‘Yes I am fine its just that I have never been to such a place before.. so….’ Ram moved his hand over hers to calm her down smiling he spoke ‘its just fine its only a restaurant….just enjoy the time with me…’ and he winked. Priya’s heart almost came at her throat ‘Did he just wink and me..and spend the time with me…where are we heading tooo….


I seriously need coffee or I will faith now’ Priya’s mind spoke. She could hear the trolley and looked in the direction Ram followed her gaze and cocked his head. His eyes twinkled looking at the breakfast approaching he rubbed his palm and grabbed the fork and knife like a kid ready to dig into his favorite ice-cream ‘CHOCOLATE WAFFLES’ Priya could feel the excitement of his voice, she smiled looking at his joy.


The waiter placed the dishes. ‘grilled sandwich for the Lady’ Priya smiled at the waiter and mimed a thankyou, and ‘chocolate waffles for Sir…coffee will be served in a moment…hope you enjoy your meal.’ He nodded slightly and walked off leaving the couple to eat in peace.


Ram was munching digging into and munching is waffles truly like a kid he momentary glanced at Priya who was biting her sandwich slowing being cautious about the place. Ram had almost finished his two stalked waffle and poking the last few of it he moved his hands towards Priya ‘Its delicious and the last of the few bits you should try ‘ before she could protest the fork was almost at her mouth, having no option left she opened her mouth and gulped it.  The dripping chocolate sauce was smeared on the lower lips un-noticed to Priya, Ram indicated her by gesturing that there is chocolate on her lips… In the attempt to wipe it off Priya started licking her lower lips ‘gosh how cute she is looking doing that had it not been a public place it would have been me doing the same tasting her chocolate smeared delicious lips..’

 ‘Dam Ram Kapoor what the hell are you thinking’ his subconscious mind asked him ‘hell don’t blame me she is so sweet and gorgeous I just can’t help thinking about her and a day without her well no never God please don’t ever give me that kind of punish me with that. YES I JUST WISH TO BE WITH HER’ his inner soul answered back… he smiled to self and took the napkin and wiped if the chocolate off her lips.


Priya was taken aback by the touch.. though it was not direct touch of his warm fingers but they were enough to make her feel baffled. She saw his face smiling and twinkling in his eyes ‘Why is he smiling? ‘before she could answer her own question the coffee came. Priya was still puzzled and it showed on her face noticed by Ram, pushing his plate aside he asked ‘What happened did not like the sandwich?’ ‘nothing like that..’

 Priya nodded ‘oh I was just wondering how do they make these pattern on the coffee’ she pointed at the butterfly pattern on the coffee made out of milk… Ram smiled and started sipping the coffee while Priya also followed the same ‘If only you knew what I want to ask you since yesterday night…’ again her mind spoke.


Sipping the last bit of coffee Ram asked for the bill to be cleared placing his Master Card and putting his signature on the bill. The waiter came back with the card in no time. Putting his hand forward to Priya he asked ‘Rest of the day awaits us’ smiling Priya held his and walked up to the main exit. The valet came with Ram’s BMW bike. The child inside Ram who was so must excited to have his favorite waffle had taken a back seat and the Tycoon was back. He placed his shades on settled on the bike and waited for Priya to get seated. He took out his wallet and tipped the valet who grinned seeing the green currency not and saluted Ram. With a kick the bike came to life accelerating the engine it drove out of the parking area into the broad roads…
