Episode No 6:Heart Confessions

Next day, Aenna and her mommie planned a shopping day out. Aenna asked her driver that today she will drive herself.

Mrs. Marvel: Aenna, why you want to drive when driver is available.

Aenna: Mom, I owned my driving license, at least, now you should trust me.

Mrs. Marvel: God keep us safe.

Aenna get inside the car, she drove towards the Big Mall. They both did some window shopping.

When Aenna and her mother were going back to home, Aenna's mother was going to be hit by a bike and a boy saved her, Aenna saw his backside, Aenna ran and he turned towards Aenna. Aenna thanked him that he saved her mother from getting into an accident. The guy was Jack, Albert's opponent since childhood, he really liked Aenna. Mrs.Marvel thanked him a lot. Jack gave Mrs.Marvel his card as he belonged to an aristocratic political family.

Jack Harold: Aunt! Ever you need any help, just call me.

He looked towards Aenna. Aenna just hated his gaze on her.

After reaching home, Aenna said her mother to stay in bed.

Aenna: Mother! today i will handle the kitchen. I will make soup for you and some brownies for me.

Aenna wore an apron and started making some chicken soup. Then she baked the brownies. She served soup to her mother.

Aenna took the tray with brownies and tea, upstairs, she sat on the table, started reading books and enjoying choclate brownies. She looked here and there.Albert quietly jumped into her terrace and covered her both eyes with his hands.

Aenna without any doubt said Albert it's you; Albert inquired why are you that much sure that the hands are Albert's. Your fragrance made me able to recognize you. Albert asked her but ever we came so close that you could memorize my fragrance.

Aenna replied: Yes we never came so close, but still i can recognize it from far away.

Albert then took his hands away from her eyes. Aenna why you didn't invited me for this tea party.

Aenna asked him:How could i invite you , how can i know you are in your room or not?

Albert: Hmmm.. Aenna i think as neighbors, we should have each other's contact number, so that we can know about one's state.

Both shared their contact numbers.

Then, Aenna offered him brownies. Wait here, Albert let me bring a cup of tea for you.

Albert: No Aenna, i don't need another cup, this is enough for both of us.

Aenna: But i took some sips, i will bring a new one for you.

Albert: No I will like this sipped tea more than the new one. Albert took the tea cup, saw towards Aenna with love, his eyes were deep, Aenna was able now to read his both eyes, he took some sips, Aenna smiled. Then, he gave the cup to Aenna.

Instead of eating a new brownie he took the one that Aenna has biten already. Yummy.. your hands have magic in them.Then, stand up to go back.

Aenna: Your are leaving?

First time, Albert felt that Aenna wants him to stay a little more.

Albert: yess! Aenni.

Aenna: my name is aenna.

Albert: i gave you a nickname. Nicknames are given with love so, one shouldn't reject them.

Aenna: Good by! Take care.

At night, Albert texted Aenna, have you slept? Aenna was sleeping,as the phone ranged she woke up, she was happy enough to see Albert's text.

Aenna: Is everything fine.. you are texting at this time.. it's 3 a.m.

I don't know why i text you at this late night, may be my heart said it so.

Aenna: What your heart says? Can you please give me some details..

Albert: My heart says so much!

Aenna:You can tell me 'a little bit' from 'so much'.

Albert: It's really confusing to open up, from where one should start?

Aenna: From there; where the heart started saying something.. simple.

Albert: You mean the first time I saw you.

Aenna: 'Me'??? ??? You mean your heart says things about me?

Albert: Why are you so shocked? Shouldn't it say?

Aenna: Then, you can tell me.

Albert: Do you remember the first day we met?

Aenna: Ummm.. yes, the day i dropped my papers accidentally.

Albert: That was the day you saw me first time, but not I.

Aenna: You mean you saw me before that.. but when?

Albert: Actually I was walking outside at night.. that day i saw a beautiful girl in red dress.. probably she was wearing a heart pendent in her neck. Right?

Aenna was overwhelmed after knowing that Albert praised her.

Aenna: I think you notice too much!

Albert: Somethings are eye-catching.

Aenna send him a smiley.

Albert went inside the kitchen; and asked Aenna to tell him coffee recipe. There are chefs at my home, but i liked your coffee more. So, please share your recipe,

Albert called Aenna and she told him step by step, how to make a coffee.

First, stir coffee beans, add some warm water, and a sweet dark choclate cube and a little vanilla essence.

Albert: Oh! that's the game changer, "choclate cube", Aenna laughed, and said, yes! because coffee is too bitter for a sugarcoated girl like me.

Albert: I am honeycoated, should I add double cubes.

Aenna: It depends on you, if it tastes bad, blame your own hands.

Albert: Fine! I will go with the sugarcoated girl. What's the next step?

Aenna: Add some milk in the coffee mixture, stir for few minutes and Aenna's coffee mug is ready.

Albert after tasting the coffee, I think you need to open your own coffee cafe.

The call ended on some jokes.

Albert send her a good night text with a heart. Aenna smiled and dragged blanket upward on her face.
