BLAZE: Of Passion And Allure

10. COURTING

Kunal's POV

I stepped in my new room and dropped the blazer off on the sofa by the side. I had to ask for another room with Kartik settling in mine. I'm still on the same floor but on the only other suite on the floor. The interior is almost identical to the other one, so I don't have any issues with the room.

The only issue is the brat who forced me to leave my own room. I refuse to believe he's here for any innocent reasons like he claimed, hell I could bet that mum sent him to keep an eye on me.

I was sure that once she learns Aayansh's news she'll be coming after my head, I had just hoped she'll wait until I'm back home. I guess I overestimated her patience. The only good thing us that she'll be busy for the time being with Aayansh's matter.

I rolled up my sleeves as I made my way to the shower and the lights flicked on. The mirror was lit up and I finally saw the doodles my little man had made.

Wait.. My?

I have always loved tidiness a lot, even when younger the most mess I tolerated was the ink on the fingertips due to writing and that too was cleaned up as soon as I could.

But as I looked up at my reflection I couldn't find the frown that would've etched my face any other day at the same sight.

I tapped on the water and washed my face before unbuttoning the shirt and dropping it off in the laundry basket. I had just stepped out of the bathroom when my feet took me back and before I knew I was pulling the shirt out and drying it off on the rack.

As I looked at it, I noticed that Aadi had only managed to cover the front and the arms of the shirt, the back was still white. It could be attributed to the fact that he couldn't reach it, while he had been able to access my arms quite easily.

And then suddenly a thought hit me and the next second I'm calling Ashish giving him an order that surprised me as well but he didn't ask.
He came to my room minutes later, took what he needed and left.

I was already dressed by the time he left, as I sat on my desk I couldn't distract myself from those eyes. Those brown ones which looked like a miniature version of someone else's.

I had work to do, plenty of it with Dad leaving for Jaipur but I couldn't make myself do it. All my thoughts were concentrated on the little human and the woman who gave birth to him. If I had doubts before then they were cleared now.

People would say that her past could dissuade me but after today I was sure that her past did nothing more than pulling myself more towards her. I could've resisted if it was only her but with Aadi in the mix I know I'll regret it if I didn't try.

So I asked advice from the only bastards I could, my best friends. As much as I hate them from finding their partners and in turn causing mom to go after my head, I'm glad they have some much needed experience I could use.

The only experience I have with girls is the one I dated in college, who herself took the initiative to approach me. Until then I had zero idea she was interested in me and I was proved right when I found her fucking our senior in the locker room, claiming I wasn't giving her what she wanted. Yup, several thousands a week on shitty makeup and dresses didn't cut it for her.

Well that wraps up my dating life. I might even have been repulsed by the idea after that, so I didn't try again. Sid has always been the playboy, only in talks to be honest, he just flirts, healthy flirting he calls it, with everyone.

Reyansh is well, he's the silent one, I still don't understand how he's engaged. And abhi is well, he's smitten. I had seen him winking once or twice at the girls at our college only because he got tired of the way they ogled at him. And believe me, those girls fled as if their asses were on fire once he did it. So yeah, his only experience is Aradhya which I'm still not sure how he managed. Well guess, it's the day I know.
