I was just minding my own business in a convenience store when suddenly-"give me some cash. All of it… now." I looked up and my eyes scanned a tall black hudded man. He was wearing a thick silver chain in his neck, with a black mask covering his more than half of his face, with a scar right above his left eyebrow, pointing a gun at the cashier. Every one started to panic and run around but not for too long- " everyone free or I'll shoot if you move a inch." I've been waiting for this movement for so long to finally happen. "Hey idiot" Every one gasped like i was commuting a crime in broad day light as the robber turned to me.
I walked up to him while slowly removing my black leather jacket." It's so hot in here. don't you think babe"- I said. Taking the chance to get close to him. "Back off sweetheart. I have a gun."- he pointed his pistel at me. "Not anymore"- I used my killer karate kick and the gun slipped away from his hands landing straight on the marble floor near a cart ful of groceries. He tried to dive for it but I immediately locked him in a tight grip and pinned him to the ground. "It's jail time baby"- a wide grim on my face sparkled.
It turned out that someone secretly diled a call to the police station. Well dressed gentlemen barged in. As the robber was being arrested, i walked out of the convinence store and some one aproched me with a proud smile plastered to his face. It was Raj, my favourite police dective. He was 10 inches taller than me and always dressed in a black or a brown tuxedo with a plain grey tie or a checked white tie. He had those dreamy emerald green eyes that makes a girl fall in love with him in a instant. Yes, I had a huge crush on him. I meet him during a future dective summer program a year before. He was really impressed with my karate skills that my father thought since I was little and we kept in touch since then.
"You're really something else kid."
kid?
He was just four years older then me but he kept treating me as his little sister and it was so annoying because I actually liked him!
"I learned from the best"- I said.
"If you're free tomorrow night, would you like to have dinner with me?
Wait, would he finally confess his feelings for me? The excitement was killing me!
I practically dance my way to my old rented dingy apartment. The paints were peeling off and the ceiling had cracks and breaks in it, when it rains the water drip in and I have to put buckets. Well, I didn't have so many buckets, i have to clean some places over and over again so the water won't spoil the surroundings. "Guess, teaching karate in a dojo isn't eneugh"
Next morning, I woke up in a startle after I remembered about the dinner but my eyes were still sleep- clogged as I stretched and rolled out of the metress.
In evening, I dressed myself casually to not to look so into this dinner thing. He took me to a romantic restaurant and my heart started racing. "I'll get to the point, Avani. I know that you've been waiting for this movement too."
You bet, I have!
"We're having a big difficult case right now and we need your help"
oh!… I suddenly felt so stupid…
"Tell me about it"- I said. "It's a gold smuggling case... and the suspect's name is mr. Kunal Mahajan. We need some hard evidence against him!"- Raj bang his fist against the table. "And how can i help exactly?"- I asked. "He has a son name Ashwin. He is two years older than you. Arrogant, clumsy, and spoiled. He's looking for a female bodyguard and she should be very… ummm… attractive"
" So you wanted me to pose as his bodyguard while spying on Mr. Mahajan… Right?"
"Exactly, we need you to find where he's hiding all the gold"
Mission accepted officer.
Dad had tought me karate since I was six and now i could put it good use. And besides, after the mission they will pay me a good salary. I finally can buy a house of my own while i can do my dream job.
Raj prepared all my fake documents for the Application and we just need to wait patiently for the result.
Raj prepared all my fake documents for the application, and luckily I was chosen. I was so excited for the mission and now i just need to get down to the bisinuss but I oversimplified things. Little did I know that I was about to get involved into the biggest mess of my life.
"O…M…G… this place is sooo big!"- I stired at the biggest mansion I saw in my whole life. "And now i am going to live here! This I a dream come true... Snap out of it Avani. You need to complete your mission and get out of here as soon as possible. Raj will finally see how cool and strong I am and at least he would stop calling me a kid"- I murmured as I walked into the mansion.
I looked around and it was lavish. There was a huge crystal chandelier hung in the centre of the main hall. I didn't had time to notice more because… I tried so hard to keep my cool as I finally met Mr. kunal. His face literally screamed danger. His skin colour was dark brown and a 2 inches long scar ran down his left check. He was tall, muscular and… bald. He wore a white traditional Indian kurta and thick chains hung in his neck. My eyes secretly scanned what was reachable in my sight and there were CCTV cameras everywhere. It is going to be harder then i thought.
"I love my son more that anything, So do your best to protect him"- This sentence and this tone really didn't suite 'him'. "I'll make sure that you won't regret hiring me sir"- I confidently spoke."
He gave me a very thick file of Ashvin and the first thing I noticed was his face. It was very attractive.
Wait a minute, why am I blushing? Snap out of it!
Mr. kunal told me that Ashwin was waiting for me in his room. He instructed a maid to lead me to his room.
Well, Duh! cuz I'll be lost in this mansion.
The maid left before me opening the door. The movement I opened the door, I was caught off guard when suddenly some one jumped on me. It was him and he looked shockingly scared. "Is everything ok sir?" "Take that disgusting little creature away from me!" I looked around and noticed a cockroach crawling towards us. I immediately stepped on it and crushed it to death. " Don't worry, it's gone sir"- I comforted him. He finnaly let go off me and opened his eyes. I almost dropped my jaw when we both stared at each other and out eyes met each other. He was the most handsome man that I had ever seen and I wasn't exaggerating. Suddenly we came back to our senses and he jumped away from me and cleared his throat. "I just find cockroaches really dirty and that's all"- he was clearly embaresed. "Anyways, you must be the new bodyguard." "Avani, at your service". " Dad surely knows my type. Do you wanna make out?" I was stunned. " Do you wanna die?"- I replied. "Playing hard to get. I like it...". "I was hired to be your bodyguard, not your girlfriend, sir." "You'll still end up being one, so why waste time?"- He was about to played with my hair but I gave home a powerful blow that sent him flying to the wall. I was clearly so annoyed by him and his attractive face was now nothing to me. "Are you crazy!? You're being paid to protect me not to kill me!" "Sorry sir, it was just a reflex." "Fix your stupid reflex or I'll tell my father to fire you!" "Loud and clear, sir. I'll officially start my duty tomorrow. Have a nice night, sir." I walked out the room and some other maid was waiting for me to show me to my room.
She lead me to a room on the second floor, more shabbier than my old apperment. "Excuse me, are you sure that this is the right room"- I awkwardly asked the maid and she nooded and walked away. Guess I have to bear it for the sake of this mission. My stuff was already kept in there and I just need to arrange my stuff to my accordance. The room had a couch that was torn from places to places and a mattress to sleep on. A chair and a table with a lamp, light and a fan. There was a window and a almirah to keep my clothes and my other stuff in. The bathroom was a little farther away from my room on the same floor. "I will live here till my mission gets over"- I sighed. I arrange my stuff properly in my new room and changed my clothes.
Later that night…
I turned on the lights that took some time to turn on. I arranged my stuff in my new room. "This room is not in a favarable conditions to live"- There were spider webs all over and dirt frozen in the corners. I have to clean this place right now or tomorrow God knows when Ashwin will free me. Just when I finished cleaning, i notice a cardboard box kept in the corner of the room which wasn't mine. Curiosity got me.
I know, I know touching others stuff is not good but come one, no one's watching...
I blew the dust off the cardboard box and pulled it near my mattress. I opened the box and saw many things that look like books. I randomly picked one and opened it. There were pictures of a little boy. I figured it was Ashwin. He was sooo cute but now… not less than a jerk. He had some photoes with a elder woman. Maybe his mother? Now i know from where he got his looks from because Mr. Kunal is not very pleasent. There were some files too in that box but I wasn't in the mood to read them. Reading is not really my thing... I noticed a birth certificate of Ashwin. "Why the hell there's a birth certificate at this kind of a place"- I picked up the files and was about to read them but my gaze fall onto a diery. I'll read them later and put the box to its original place when I notice the place was grave quite.
That night when every one was sleeping, I tip-toed around the mansion and installed some spy cameras to watch Mr. Kunal's every move. His and Ashwin's rooms were on the first floor. I have to catch him soon, find where he hides the gold, get some hard evidence against him and get this job done with.
The next day, at Ashwin's university, boys immediately flocked around me like I was a celebrity and Ashwin didn't look so happy. Ashwin ordered them to back off and they all ran off like rats in the dark. "Excuse me sir, but I can take care of myself."- i politely said. "I want you to focus on me. Those idiots will just distract you." "I am usually not distracted by some random stupid things, sir." But he just ignored me and continued walking. Suddenly he slipped on a piece of tissue paper and be for his head hit the ground, I caught him. Our faces were so close and for a movement I was lost in his beautiful brown eyes.
Just then a pretty girl came running. She had long black hairs, wore a skirt and pink top. She screamed "Hubby boo, what's the meaning of this? Are you cheating on me?" Based on his file, she must be his girlfriend, Bhavya. "ohhh, don't worry… this girl is just my bodyguard. She's just protecting me."- he calmly said. "Ugh… what a relief. I am your one and only, always and forever. Right hubby boo?" She then jumped on him and stirred hugging him like a vacume cleaner.
Bhavya was clinging to him al the day and they were so lovey-divvy. Bhavya kept sticking her tounge out at me. What was her problem?
Later that day, Ashwin dragged me to the neem tree near the playground. "I actually don't like Bhavya. I just dated her because she was just soo… obsessed with me. I felt so bad for her." "And what are you telling me this… sir?" "Don't be jealous"- Huh, excuse me... "I already broke up with her but she keeps on clinging to me. From now on, I want you to keep her away from me. Make sure she doesn't come near me."
"Copy that, sir"
Later that day, I shuck into the bathroom to check the surrivlence vidios on my phone, I saw Mr. Kunal enter the mansion and went straight to his room.
I need to have access there too.
On my way out I bumped into someone, Bhavya. "Listen girl, you may look tough and all but I'm not scared of you. I want you to stay away from my future husband. My hubby boo"- she said. "Sorry, i can't do that. I'm being paid to be at his side 24/7 and besides you have nothing to worry about. 'I can't steal him from you'" She busted out laughing. "Ashwin is the most beautiful guy in the entire universe"
Excuse me, you're exagurating...
There is no way that you are not atteractd to his unless you are lesbian. Are you attracted to me instead?"
"Maybey"- I said in devilish tone.
" I can't blame you. I'm perfect! But sorry, you're not my type"-she was obviously scared. Such a girly! "That's too bad but I think I'm obsessed with you." "Ewww… get away from me."
My little stunt was effective because…
