28 First Ride

Anna's Pov:

I get into the passenger seat, and he started driving to the house. I didn't speak anything and looking at the passing trees through the window to get distracted from his thoughts.

He is driving the car at high speed; suddenly, he stops the car by a sudden break. I am shocked and didn't understand what's happening; I am about to fell onto the dashboard, and my head may hit the dashboard, but something stopped me..

A saving Hand..

Its Mark..

Yes, Mark kept his hand between my head and dashboard and saved me. I forgot everything I feel secure when his hand touches on my forehead. I sit back normally and looked at him as if nothing happened.

Mark: "Are you ok?"

(I nodded my head as ok and checked on the road; I didn't find anything and didn't understand why he suddenly breaks the car.)

Mark POV:

(She is deeply involved in her thoughts. I want to tease her more; she is sitting like a statue in the car. Meanwhile, I saw a face, the face I am searching for...

It's John; he is coming opposite to me on a bike without a helmet. So without a second thought, I suddenly stop the car to look at him. Meanwhile, Anna may hit to the dashboard, so I keep my hand to save her, and I immediately saw the number plate through my side mirror.

Anna: What happened?

Mark: Nothing, I just want to check whether the breaks are working properly or not...

(I don't want to tell her about John; she may upset. So I started teasing her meanwhile.)

Anna: Hoo...

(After a few seconds, she realized that I started again to tease her; she immediately looked at me with her angry pout face. she looks pretty when she is angry; I smiled by looking at her and said, "Act like a grown-up girl.."

Anna: I no need to act like a grown-up because I am a grown-up girl.

Mark: Have you grown up?

Anna: Yes..!!!

(She said strongly..)

Mark: Then, why you didn't lip-lock?

Anna: What?

Mark: "Then why you didn't lock your seatbelt?"

(I shouted and acted angrily to make my second statement strong. She immediately checked the seat belt and realized she didn't keep the seat belt, and by keeping the belt, she looked at me.)

Anna: "Did you ask the same question before?

Mark: Yes, Why?

Anna: Nothing I hear the different question so..

Mark: Do you have a hearing problem?

Anna: What?

Mark: Exactly..!!!

I should repeat everything two times; it happens in the restaurant when I am asked you about french fries and now when I am asking you about the seat belt...

If you really have any deaf problem, let me know. I know a physician, he will definitely help you with good treatment.

What.. What.. Are the only words you know?

(I said arrogantly to tease her again.)

Anna's Pov:

I am in shock when he raised his voice at me. I am scared to look at when he is mad at me. Maybe he is right; I may get deaf. That's the reason I hear wrongly. He said right; something happened to me. So I agreed with him.

Anna: "Actually, I didn't have any hearing problem, Mark, but in recent times I hear wrongly, especially today. I think it happens because of the accident I went through..."

(I convinced him in a pleasing tone.)

Mark: Do you hear wrongly?

Can you tell me in detail?

(I am dead now; what should I say now?

About French Kiss or about lip-lock?

It's better I should shut my mouth quietly.)

Anna: I forgot...

Mark: Forgot? Let it be...

(He is smiling by looking at me.)

Mark: "Ok then Grown-up girl put your seat belt whenever you are in the car, ok?"

(I nodded my head as Yes. He started the car and started driving to home.. Meanwhile, he looked at me and turn to the road.)

Mark: Can I ask you one thing?

Anna: yes..!

Mark: Why did you hide to Mona about your bruise that caused by me?

(How he knows that I hide it from Mona?

Does he know that I have another bruise on my waist.?

I took all my strength and asked him a question in reverse, "Why you convince Mona to don't give injections to me..?"

"You still don't know my past by the morning, but why you convinced her?

(A typical silence takes place between us for a few minutes.)

Anna: "I think both questions have the same answer..."

Mark's Pov:

When I am driving, I looked at her bruise on her arm, so I want to ask her why did she hide from Mona, but her reverse question has no words to answer, how she knows that I convinced Mona about the injection.

Yes, I convinced Mona because I care about Anna. I don't know her past by then, but she hid behind me to save her when Mona asked her to take injections. After I hear about the phobia, I don't want to hurt her again, so I requested Mona.

In between my thoughts, we reached our home, and I lead to my room. Meanwhile, Anna handover the parcel to Nanny, and she went to her room..

Anna's Pov:

I went to my room and got freshened up and came down while Nanny is busy in preparing something.

Anna: what's that, Nanny?

Nanny: It's a strawberry salad, beta, Sir like strawberries a lot...

Anna: Hoo..

(I remember that he ordered for strawberry ice-cream at the restaurant. In between my thoughts, I observe someone is walking from the hallway..

I went to check...

It's she, the girl I saw yesterday with her chest coverage before Mark. I feel angry on her..

But why?

am I feeling jealous??)

Anna: Are you visited for Mark?

Genie: I don't give answers to the one who can't afford for a dress..

(I feel a stab in my heart, and tears filled in my eyes. Meanwhile, Nanny came and asked me to inform Mark that his personal assistant has arrived..

I am shocked she is the P.A. to him..

Why doesn't he appoint male personal assistance?

With these thoughts, I went near to his room and knocked. He opened the door by holding a towel and rubbing his wet hair, and he is shirtless and has only short. I just turned around with a shy and said, "your p.a. has arrived for you."

Mark: ok

(I can hear his chuckle; I didn't care and went to my room hurriedly.
