There's a limit to everything and especially if that thing is patience. Shivaay Singh Oberoi has all his life been an impatient man. When he wants something to be done, he wants it to be done in the blink of an eye. In short he is the most impatient man in this whole world.
But the children of this street were testing him as if he was a student and they, the teachers. It's been two weeks that he has been living here as Shivinder and in these two weeks he has noticed that the people here are loud, nosy sometimes.. okay they are nosy always. Once you exit your house their eyes drop you till the end of the street, and that too because its impossible for them to see you after that unless they move.
But the kids ! They are the incarnation of devil and he aka Shivinder is their latest target. He doesn't need an alarm clock to wake him up as they deliberately shout when they are passing by his house.
Just two days ago they nearly gave him a heart attack and the reason was those cheap fire crackers. They rang his bell early in the morning and when he opened the door... those cracker chains starting bursting. Not in past 28 years of his life he had jumped so much as he did in those five minutes.
Diwali was nearing doesn't mean they had to tell it to everyone by bursting those irritating things. Those kids led him to decide that he will start a campaign on 'STOP BURSTING FIRE CRACKERS' soon.
The next day they had just made it unbearable for him. They kept ringing his doorbell. It was the 40th time that they rang the doorbell and ran away. It was enough now ! He exited his house and hid behind a drum kept nearby. As soon as they would come, he was going to beat their naughty ass.
His luck was too bad. When he caught hold of a naughty kid, Anika came out of her house. She looked at him as he had picked the kid up in his arms. He had to stop himself and from scolding that kid who looked at him and then at Anika and then again at him with a naughty smile. And when he let the kid go, he winked at him. Yes. The little, Saturn's incarnation just winked at The Shivaay Singh Oberoi.
And today, they just broke the glass of the window in his kitchen with their ball while playing football. Now he can't run a campaign against football because he freaking loves that sport. But he wasn't going to return the ball. That's it.
It was when he exited his kitchen to complete the cleaning of living room when he heard some noise from the kitchen. His kitchen that he had somehow cleaned to make it presentable, was now full of muddy footprints and the ball was gone. How ?
The window is open, genius !
"You're still a kid bro. So it's useless to try to catch us." The nerve of that kid half the height as Shivaay's, he just called him a kid and ran away.
And then he came back near the window and said something that was unbearable, "Anika didi tumse nahi patne vali."
Shivaay or to say, Shivinder jumped out of the window to teach the little kid a lesson but the football came crashing down on his face. Ouch !
"Wanna play ?" Asked that kid again and the others laughed at Shivinder as if they were ragging a junior in their school.
"Naah ! You all are kids. That's why I'm leaving you otherwise I would have showed you how to play." Said Shivinder and turned to go back to his house.
"Scared." Those kids shouted and laughed again.
Shivinder looked at them with such a look on his face that they were scared for a minute but then they smirked.
"It's a yes." The kids shouted and picked the football. So now it was a match between seven and one.
If it wasn't enough, half of the colony was all set to see this match. Okay now really Mr. Rough and tough's reputation was at stake.
In no time, two cots were placed at some distance to serve as goal posts and the national level football champion was loosing in front of those kids. But hey ! The kids were cheating. They always managed to make him fall and then take the ball away.
But Shivinder wasn't going to loose, the Shivaay Singh Oberoi in him didn't know how to loose. He was so engrossed in the game that he didn't notice his Sweebit who was looking at him.
He was concentrating on the game and he would have made a goal if one of those little devils had not stretched his leg to make him fall, again. He fell so harshly that his T-shirt was torn.
"Get up Shivinder." Shivinder heard a voice that had the capacity to make him a winner without even making an effort. He looked towards her as she gestured him to get up.
He didn't need to do anything after that. He just didn't realise how he dodged their stretched legs and pushes and pulls. He just managed to make 5 goals in those forty five minutes.
By that time the sun was set. The kids wanted to play more as they were really enjoying and also because they wanted to win in they other half of the match. But their mothers stopped them and asked them to go and study. But before they could go, Anika stopped them. She went to the kids and boxed their ears.
"You all were already playing in a team and he was alone and then you all were cheating by making him fall. That's not good. Apologise." Anika scolded the kids and asked them to apologise.
"Sorry, didi." They said to her but didn't say anything to Shivinder who was standing behind Anika and giving them a winning smirk.
"Apologise to him, not to me." Anika said as she turned to look at Shivinder who stopped doing his victory dance as soon as she turned. She pulled them making them stand in front of Shivinder.
"Sorry." The kids said rather, they threw the sorry at him and ran away.
"Now dance the way you were doing behind my back. Come on." Anika crossed her arms across her chest.
She chuckled as she looked at him opening his mouth and then closing it again. She shook her head in disbelief.
"You're a kid, seriously. You've more childishness then the kids have." Anika said as she looked at his bruised hands and left elbow that was bleeding. She pulled him towards his house and brought the first aid kit.
While doing the first aid, she was scolding him but he was just staring at her, not listening a single word she said.
"Now you agree that you're a kid ?" He heard her ask and not knowing what she was talking about he kept looking at her with his mouth agape.
"I assume it's a yes."
Shivinder wanted to deny and say something in his defense but when she laughed, he couldn't say anything but keep staring after her.
Next day brought another challenge for Shivaay. He searched the three canteens twice but couldn't find Anika. She came to office with him. But he was engrossed in a meeting from last 3 hours and when he came out of the meeting to see her once, she was nowhere to be found.
Just then, his... Shivinder's phone pinged with a message from his Anika Ji. The worry lines on his forehead disappeared and he smiled. BUT.. the big BUT, the smile couldn't last long.
"I'm here at Cafe Mocha from last one hour with my friend. But where are you ?"
The message nearly choked him. Now a genius mind would say, you can make an excuse that you're on leave or something, right ? Wrong.
Just in the morning the great Mr. Shivinder Singh was boasting infront of his Anika ji about being so busy today that taking a leave is just impossible.
"Just came to deliver an order."
"The delivery boy had met with an accident, that's why."
" will be there in half an hour."
He sent the message and marched towards the exit as he asked Khanna to get the car ready.
"They offer home delivery services ?"
The message that he just received read and he was caught off guard. How could he be so stupid ? He didn't know if they do it or not and he just told her whatever came to his stupid mind.
"Khanna, does Cafe Mocha offer home delivery services ?" Shivaay asked Khanna and the poor man looked at him as if he was asked to answer the questions of Quantum Physics.
"I.. I.. we're here, sir." Khanna breathed a sigh of relief as Shivaay stepped out of the car almost immidiately and entered the cafeteria from the back door. The owner, whom Shivaay's guard almost dragged towards Shivaay, was now too happy and shocked to see him there. He didn't know his cafe was so famous.
It's not about your cafe, dude !
Brfore the man could even open his mouth to began to say something in his sugar-coated voice, he was stopped.
"I want to serve here as a waiter for an hour." Shivaay explained his 'demand', giving a mini heart attack to the owner.
He couldn't understand why the hell on earth would a powerful man like Shivaay Singh Oberoi want to be a waiter ? He couldn't deny him but it was all so illogical that his lips seemed to be glued together and his throat seemed like it was blocked.
"I said I want you to let me be a waiter for an hour. Are you deaf ?" Shivaay whispered with his jaws clenched tightly and eyes boring deep into the man's face, as if a minute more and he will kill him.
"B..B.. But --" Once again, the poor man was interrupted.
"Take this and now don't open your mouth." Shivaay said as he signed a check of 50 lakhs and gave it to the man, rather threw it towards him. He was used to getting his own way and money, could do anything.
These words that left Shivaay's mouth and then the amount written on the check made the owner blank. Even the cafe wasn't worth 40 lakhs. His mind was so boggled that he fainted.
"It's a yes." Shivaay exclaimed casually as if nothing happened and gestured his guard to bring him the uniform of a waiter.
Khanna mentally face palmed himself at his boss's stupidity. There was no need to offer money, the man wasn't refusing him but just confused and shocked. But who could tell this to Shivaay Singh Oberoi.
Dressed in a beige coloured button down shirt, black trousers and a beige coloured apron, he looked a waiter ? No. He looked like a model who had been dressed like a waiter for a photo shoot. Anika couldn't help but think this way. It was so weird that this man never fails to make her feel like he is someone else. Someone she doesn't like yet gets attracted to.
Her friend had left half an hour ago but she was still sitting here, waiting to meet Shivinder God knows why.
When he stepped into the sitting area with his charming smile, that again, reminded her of HIM, she couldn't help but smile. She couldn't help but give angry glares to the girls who were giving cheeky smiles to her friend. Once again, this feeling was exactly the way she felt when in the office those girls were trying to throw themselves at HIM during the interview session.
How could this be possible ? How could she have such similar feelings for two different people who were, in no aspects similar to each other ? And the most important thing, how could she have feelings for a man, any man at the first place ?
These thoughts were scaring her because she didn't want to be hurt. Despite the fact that Shivaay Singh Oberoi always hurted her, somewhere she started liking him. May be it was because of his love for his family or his protectiveness towards her in these few days, even if it was a pretense.
But for now, the point was, she had to be careful. She can't get hurt. She has to stay away from this mess in the name of 'feelings'.
She didn't realise when this whirlwind of thoughts urged her to get up and leave the cafe without meeting Shivinder, who had started speeding towards her, ignoring the people who were calling the 'supposed' waiter.
He was surprised as well as confused as Anika left from there without meeting him, but then, she never mentioned that she wanted to meet him. She had just asked him about his whereabouts. He sighed at his own stupidity as he removed his apron, his smile long gone and the poker face back once again.
"Hey dude ! Are you deaf or something ?" Shivaay heard a guy calling him. He (Shivaay) looked at him for a minute but didn't respond and threw the apron away carelessly and marched towards the exit.
"It's a yes, then. He is deaf."
