30. Dans vos yeux

Dans vos yeux: In your eyes

Dedicated to AmbassadorsIN

"Your eyes pull me deeper into their depth... I drown away...
Your eyes summon me closer to your heart than anything that ever will...
Your eyes hold the truth that you maybe concealing with your lies...
You can change but the only constant will be your eyes."

Sampurnaa's pov:

I was stunned for a moment. Looking into his eyes so intently was intense. His burning embers held an intimidating depth.... They were hypnotic...Looking into them I realised that no one can ever lie to him... At least not while looking into his eyes.

............

I broke out of my trance when it started raining. The sunlight got hidden by the dark clouds that unleashed its load on us. I abruptly freed my hand from Indrayan realising our position.

He broke out of his trance too.

We both looked at one another again. I looked away. He cleared his throat.

"Umm... Where are you headed to?", he asked breaking the silence.

"I am going to BKC. I have to go for an evening shoot. There is a special pre-Ganesh Chaturthi coverage."

"Oh! I am not sure where I am going..." His voice screamed unsurity.
I smiled at that and said, "I am up for a coffee though. Leopolf café?"

He nodded and we both proceeded towards his car.

.......

We both took our seats at the café. I ordered a black coffee with no sugar and Indrayan ordered a latte.
We were talking about Adrija Boudi and how she had been us around. She ordered me everyday in the evening to get something or the other that she was craving. She had ordered Indrayan to start shortlisting clothes from online for his unborn nephew or niece. We both had orders from both Dada and Boudi to get an interior designer who could design a perfect nursery in our home.
I was really hungry so I went and ordered a blackforest pastry for myself and a pineapple pastry for Indrayan.

I can eat blackforest cake anytime and everytime!

My phone pinged indicating a new notification. It was a message from my senior,

"The Lalbaugcha Raja has already been inaugarated. I want you to go there and cover a small interview of the people who have gone there, about the new things this year and also get the estimated amount spent this year and other details from the puja committee members. I will be sending a team soon. Be there by 5."

I groaned! There was no way in heaven or hell that I could go there and interview people peacefully. There was going to be an inevitable chaos owing to the number of people who go there for darshan.

And there was another bigger problem... I have never been to Lalbaug!

I sighed and put my phone away.

He noticed my weird expression and asked, "Ki holo?" (What happened?)

I shook my head, "I am supposed to got to Lalbaug for on-field reporting but the problem is that I have never been there before! I have no idea which train I am supposed to take from here."

"You know how to drive and you have a car. Why do you travel by train?"

"First things first I do not have a car! Yes, we have two but they belong to my parents and Dada- Boudi respectively. I do not earn enough to afford travelling by cab everyday."
