OPPOSITES ATTRACT

XXIX: THE OPPOSITES FINALLY ATTRACT

Mayra's POV

Life was going good. Work was good. Recently we acquired 2 companies and we were happy. Life was much better with Nikita. There was no awkwardness among us. We have been on few dates and I realized that I like to spend my time with her.

I tried to come home early to spend more time with her. She used to give me water, whenever I came home. She was okay with me when I was naked around her. She even adored my body and complemented me.

Once I woke up early in the morning, feeling hungry. I checked the refrigerator, but there was nothing. I checked on Nikita; she was in a deep sleep. So, I decided to cook something for me, though I don't know to cook.

I saw some noodles and I decided to make some. I went through some easy recipes and settled on one. I turned on the gas and put a utensil. I added all the veggies and noodles. After some time, I went to turn off the gas. I picked up the utensil with my bare hands and in return, I got burnt and it fell on my foot and then on the floor and I yelled in pain.

The utensil was hot and I was stupid enough to pick it up with my bare hands. I saw Nikita running towards me. She must have woken up by the sound of the utensil falling down and me yelling. She immediately grabbed my hand and took me towards the sink and put some water on the burnt area. I was in pain but I tried to hide it. She then asked me to sit on the sofa. She went and brought some ointment.

While applying the ointment she was blowing air through her mouth, as it was burning and I felt no pain. It was like the air from her mouth that was taking away all the pain. When I saw her, there were tears in her eyes. She was yelling at me for not waking her up. I calmed her down and this was the first time that I felt something.

No one had donesomething like that for me other than my parents. It really felt nice. Everyevening we used to sit together and talk about how was our day. Mine wereusually tired, so she used to give me a little massage and that felt nice. Iwasn't accepting or denying the fact that I was falling for her.

Nikita's POV

After the incident in the kitchen, I never let Mayra go into the kitchen. I also made sure that there is something left in the refrigerator, so that she can eat, if she feels hungry. I had told everything to Ekta, about me coming out to Mayra and the way I did. She was very happy. The distance between her and Mayra was reducing and they both were getting along.

A week after that weekend, Mayra had given a small party, in which she had invited few of her close friends. She told them about my coming out thing. We all enjoyed very much. I used to wait for her to come home, so that I could hear her talking about her day.

Kissing her before going to sleep, after waking up, before going to school, after her coming to house, saying her I love you, all these small things were enjoyed by me. I knew that she is also enjoying all these things. She didn't say to me, but I could feel that. Coming home early from office, staying late till night and talking to me.

Today my in-laws have called us for dinner. I am excited to meet them and tell them everything. We haven't met them since Mayra's birthday. Also, I was eager to go to their house, because I remember, whenever we have visited them, something has happened between me and Mayra. I was hoping that she accepts me and tell me that she loves me.

It was 5 in the evening. I am getting ready, while Mayra is taking a shower. She was all sweaty after coming from office. I got a call from Ekta. There was signal loss, so I went in the garden to talk to her. I talked to her for 15-20 minutes and ended the call, when I heard Mayra calling me.

I went to the room and saw her. she was wearing a simple saree with light make up and little jewelry, yet she was looking beautiful and elegant. For few moments, I just lost my breath. I only came back when she shook me. I complemented her beauty and she mine. I was wearing different clothes than what I usually wear. As maa wanted to see me in different clothes.
