Stay

"You are going back?"

"…"

She didn't answer him anything for a while.

She doesn't know how to answer this question. She didn't want to bother him with her stuff anymore. Now she finds it very hard to see him doing her business all day around when they don't even have a proper relationship as a friend even. She does joke around a lot with him but that to make the relation with him less awkward slowly.

Moreover she wants to be his real friend now but she can't do that if she feels like she owes him something that she can't even return the way he did.

She doesn't know how to cook!

She exhaled deeply before answering. "Well… I already troubled you a lot. If i'll be able to lessen it even by a bit i'll do. Moreover-" Before she could say more to explain, Soham interrupted.

"You are no trouble" He denied her assertion immediately.

"Yeah but-"

"Stay" His voice stained hoarsely. But more like order.
