Chapter 6 Six
- "So this is what happened, I see. Now I got it.", Gradually Clara's excitement subsided as Sanaya told her everything.
- "Yeah. We have no relationship. They were just exaggerating it. That's all.", When Sanaya and Clara were about to leave the party hall Clara's friends were super curious, they kept asking Sanaya if Sanaya was really his girlfriend or what was the relationship between them. Clara was clever so they finally could get out of there.
- "Ok ok. The day after tomorrow you have a job interview. You should not waste your time thinking about these things now. Think about the preparation for your first job interview. Go to sleep now. Good night.", Saying so, Clara got up to bed. Sanaya pronounced, "Hmm, good night."
- "Tomorrow, it will be a good day.", Lying on the bed Sanaya looked at the roof. Tonight was somewhat unique but that might have ended there, thinking so she closed her eyes. But those green eyes, she could not forget them. As soon as she closed her eyes those green eyes made her open her eyes in the instant. Sanaya kept trying to fall asleep. Listening to her favorite song, counting 1-1000 but as soon as she closed her eyes she saw that handsome face smiling at her. It kept going on that way… and she could not sleep.

- "Boss, I have already sent the address to you. But I have something to ask. Ahh, can I?" Whoever would call Nick early in the morning, he would never pick it up but for the first time, he picked it up.
- "What is it?" He asked in a sleepy voice.
- "Can I not go…"
- "You can continue if you want your salary of this month to be deducted.", Cutting him off as Nick said that the man over the call said, "Sorry boss. I…"
- "If you go with me I will consider accepting your apology.", As Nick said, he cut the call and threw his phone where he didn't even see. Damn, he was annoyed as he got a call in the early morning from his secretary.

- It was afternoon when Sanaya was practicing. She was a good singer but she was not famous nor did she have her songs out there. She sang songs in college programs, and she had an angel-like voice. She was looking at the lyrics when she heard the doorbell ringing.
- Putting the guitar aside, Sanaya got up to the sofa and went to open the door.
- As she opened the door she was surprised. An unexpected guest was standing in front of her…
- She stood still, her expression changed into shock. The uninvited guest glanced at her for a second then without waiting for her to invite him inside he walked in just passing her. Sanaya closed the door.
- She was sitting still, indulged in thoughts. Her mind had only one question though and that was 'what is he doing here?'
- "Hello, I am Kyle and this is my boss.", The man who introduced himself as Kyle said so.
- "Hello.", Sanaya was observing the man next to Kyle who had no expression on his face, it was hard to understand what he was thinking. He was more like a cold-hearted man than a warm-hearted one.
- Kyle looked at the man next to him and then he smiled looking at Sanaya, "My boss has something important to talk to you about…" then he looked at the man again and got up.
- "Wish you have a mutual agreement.", Then he left them alone there.
- "Wh…", Sanaya was left with surprises. She couldn't guess what he meant. She was about to ask him but Kyle left already.
- Looking at the man who was sitting opposite her, she thought in her mind, "What did he mean?"
- "Marry me." Finally, he talked. The man in front of her was looking at her as he confessed it. Sanaya was stunned. She might have heard it wrong, she said startled, "Huh? Pa-pardon?"
- "I want to marry you.", He said again, sitting on the couch like steel.
- Taking the glass of water from the table she drank the water in one go then wiping her mouth with the back of her hand she said, "You must be kidding."
- "Do you think if a man comes into a woman's house and tells her such a thing then he is joking?"He was looking at her. His expression was hard to understand, whether he was serious or he just wanted to test her but his face was serious.
- "I… I don't know.", She looked around.
- "Take it easy,'' he got up and started looking around.
- "What taking… see Mr…", interrupting her he said, "It's Nick."
- "So Mr. Nick.", He interrupted her again saying, "Call me Nick."
- "Why would I?" She gave him a sarcastic look as she uttered.
- "Because you are my soon-to-be wife.", Man, was he kidding? Sanaya couldn't believe him. She found him funny. She held the glass strongly and put it on the table making a loud noise.
- "When I met you that day I didn't know you could be as nutty as a fruitcake." When Sanaya said it Nick walked towards her. She was startled as he was walking towards her.
- "Did you call me that actually or I have heard it wrong?" He sat next to her and looked at her coldly. So close, she swallowed and moved away.
- "Yes, I said what you heard.", She said, looking around, not to look at him again.
- "... I see. I'm letting it go just this once since you are my would be wife.", He said, still looking at her when she was not even looking at her.
- "Not again. Hey, I don't know what's wrong with you but I am not going to marry you. I don't agree.", As soon as she said it she found herself lying under him. He was lying on top of her.
- Poor Sanaya looked at him nervously, "What-what are you doing?"
- "Nothing much. I am just letting you know that we will get married soon so don't be rude to me ever again. And don't ever say that you don't agree.", He was surely insane, that's what she thought.
- "Huh? Why would I marry a stranger?" She said lying against his chest. Who was scared of him? Well, not Sanaya. Ahh maybe?
- "I am not a stranger to you. Remember we've danced together that evening, and I've also saved you that evening.", He had his arms on either side of her still when he said so.
- "It was pure coincidence. You can't say that we are not strangers.", She tried getting out of his pressure.
- "Do you mean strangers can know everything about you?" He seemed to be confident. He knew things about her but she didn't know.
- "What do you mean? You know about me?", She was surprised to hear him saying that.
- "Of Course I do,'' he said, smiling.
- "Is this man… could it be that he ran away from the mental hospital? Or maybe he had a girlfriend before but she died and he lost his... And far more, people were saying that he is their male God, what was that about? Is he there… or he's…", seeing her indulged in thoughts he moved away. He asked her, "Do you play guitar?"
- "Ye… No.", Sanaya quickly took her guitar and held it tight.
- "I see."
- "Do you have anything else to say?" Getting up, she asked him. As he said no she held his hand, making him surprised but soon she threw him out of her house. Yeah, it was a 'kick out'. Nick was left with no chance of saying anything else anymore to her as she was quite fast to kick him out of her house.
- "What a screwy!" She threw a pillow away angrily.
- "Boss, are you ok?" Nick was very angry as he was pushed out of her house all of a sudden. Seeing Kyle he nodded his head. He looked at the window from the outside of the house, "I'll give you time. Next time we meet, I'll see if you dare to do something like this again."
- "Boss, you should not…", Kyle lowered his head when Nick looked at him. He was looking at him as a devil as if he was about to eat him up.
- "Where are we going next? Office or…"
- Cutting him off Nick said, "To the mansion. Tell them to change the cleaning lady right now!"
- "Ahh ok.", Kyle nodded his head. He didn't dare to say anything against him. His boss was already about to explode, calling out danger for himself wouldn't be a smart idea.
- "No woman will marry you if you keep being cold-hearted all the time.", He mumbled.
- Kyle has been working for Nick for some years and he knew how hard it was to make him happy. Every day finding a new cleaning lady then another gardener, except the chef you could say he fired every single servant. Moody, intolerable, unpredictable, etc etc. The people who saw him in the office started liking him more after they saw him, it was kind of strange. When he was actually being unreasonably crazy they thought he was awesome, such a personality wow! Well, Kyle knew how irritated he was as he was the one working by his side for more than anybody else out there.
- Kyle was super shocked when he got to know that his boss, Mr. Devil wanted to marry a girl whom he met for once only. He was praying for the girl so she would be able to save herself from his boss.

- "Wow… so manly.", Sanaya didn't expect her best friend to act opposite to what she expected.
- "Manly? My ass. He is insane. We… We don't even know each other. He just saved me that evening from those bad guys and then we met at the party, that's all. How can he ask me for marriage? What a stark raving mad!!!.", Sanaya was extremely unpleasant to him. Manly? She was afraid that he had only the good looks to make any girl fall for him but he was a crazy nerd for sure.
- "What do you mean by weirdo? Think how cute he is. He might have fallen in love with you at first sight and he decided to marry you. Why don't you think like that?"Said Clara, still smiling stupidly.
- "Love at first sight? No way. If he… if he I mean if something like that would happen then I would even believe in those fairytales you know. He could say that he loves me but he didn't say that he wants to marry me because he loves me. He just… seems to be crazy. Yeah totally…", saying so Sanaya walked to the window and sat next to the window.
- "Maybe he wanted to tell you but you shooed him away so he couldn't say it.", Hearing Clara Sanaya started thinking of that time. She did throw him away but was it true he fell in love with her at first sight? Throwing all the thoughts away she nodded her head in disagreement, "No no, it's not true. Don't think of it. He might be some jerk, looking for one night stand only…!"
