THE PROPOSAL

1032 Words
Lucas's POV: They all went to the parking lot, and she took Varun's mobile and called someone. I realized she was calling me when I saw my mobile ringing, showing Varun's name. I answered the call, still keeping an eye on her. “Hello, sir. Can you please give Varun permission to leave? He has some important work now," she asked, and it broke my heart hearing her call me sir. “It's not office time, so you can call me Munchkin. I'll only give him permission if you call me Munchkin," I said, waiting for her reaction. She smiled, and I felt content. “Stop smiling," I said, and she looked around, confused. She found the camera and smiled again. “Fine, Munchkin. Then I'm not asking for permission. I'm taking my brother out for some time," she said, and I hummed. She ended the call and smiled at Varun. Varun pinched her hand and got inside the car. Then that girl, Miya, also got in the passenger seat, and they left. My demon went to the bike parking and got on a Ducati. I think she came here on this. She started the bike, but she looked at the camera and signaled for me to come with her. I immediately jumped up and down and went to the parking lot, not caring about anything. She smiled at me and handed me a mask, which she also wore. I put on the mask and sat behind her. She started to drive, and I guessed she was following Varun and Miya. I didn't ask her anything, nor did she tell me anything. She parked the bike near a restaurant, and I noticed Varun's car there. Not his car, I think it's Miya's. We both silently entered the restaurant, and she led me to a private dining room that was decorated. When Varun and Miya noticed me there, their eyes widened in shock. Surely, they didn't expect me here. Varun and Miya stood up when they saw me approaching their table, but my demon intervened. “Oh, you don't need to stand. He is here as my friend, not our boss. So, just sit down. Did you guys order anything?" she said, sitting on one of the chairs. Varun nodded, saying they had ordered the food. I sat beside her and asked both Varun and Miya to sit. They both sat down, and my demon introduced Miya to me. She was her friend, and they both lived in the same apartment, with Varun living one street over. I didn't ask for more details, as my demon had already told me she would explain everything when the time came. This wasn't a five-star restaurant, nor was it low-class. My demon ordered biryani for me without asking, and I didn't say anything about it. Varun looked at her with wide eyes as his sister didn't even consult me. The food arrived, and we started eating. Thankfully, this was a private glass chamber, so no one could see us. We finished our food in silence. After finishing, Miya looked at the decorations with suspicious eyes. “Guys, why have they decorated this room today? They never decorate. Is there some celebration happening here today?" she asked, and I guessed this was their regular place. Suddenly, Varun kneeled in front of Miya, holding a dark blue ring box. I didn't expect this. I looked at my demon and saw she was smiling, indicating she was part of the plan. Miya just looked at him with wide eyes, her eyes welling up. She looked at my demon, who smiled back at her. “Do you think I can't figure out what's going on in both your heads? He stole your number and your photos from my phone, and you stole his number and photos from my phone. You didn't give up whenever I asked you about him. But he gave up and told me that he loves you. So, as his sister and best friend, I convinced him to propose to you, and now you guys are here. Grow up, guys," my demon said, smiling at both of them. “She's right, Miya. I can't control my feelings in front of you. I fell for you the second I saw you with my sister in the club. I thought you didn't love me, but then she told me you had feelings for me too. So, why not give ourselves a chance? Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked Miya, and she nodded, giving him her hand. He put the ring on her finger, and they hugged in happiness. My demon captured this beautiful moment on her mobile. I wondered how a man like Varun could develop feelings for a girl. He always had a “don't-mess-with-me" expression. 'Didn't you fall for a girl? You're a bigger devil than him,' my subconscious mind mocked me. I smiled, knowing the truth. But, still I wonder from where Varun has got the time to love her. As far as I know, he was always tensed about thinking something that I clearly know that it's not about Miya. They talked for some time, and I sat there silently. But then, the situation tensed up in a second. I knew something was wrong. Like people will feel the positive energy around them, I feel the negative energy around me whenever something is going to happen. Maybe not for everyone, but whenever something silly or terrible is going to happen to me and that one person who I consider as the important one in my life, my brain would give me the signal. After few minutes, I understood that this time it's not about me or him but about my demon…I looked around her trying to find anything dangerous to her and I was unsuccessful in the first attempt. I was only looking at my Demon's reaction till now but suddenly some other person's face reaction caught my eyes. Just like me, I guess my demon also felt something that looked up. When she did it was Varun's face she first noticed and I know that again this brother and sister are playing something.
