Our evening together

After I reached the college entrance I stood few steps far off from the gate so that I can see people exiting. I saw Kim walking out with Andy and two others maybe his classmates. On exiting the gate Kim and Andy spoke for few minutes, Kim handed over a book to Andy and he was on his way home. Kim turned to the direction our home was and took two steps and he noticed me, our eyes met. None of us broke the contact for a good few seconds I remembered the first time I saw him in the park those shiny eyes and that bunny smile. His eyes were as beautiful as back then. He gave a huge smile and waved at me. Ohh God how could I stop my heart from skipping a beat. I waved back instantly in a daze. I didn't know if it was really happening it all felt like a dream a happy one.

Kim then slowly started walking towards where I stood. Then we casually started talking and walking towards home. None of us had any assignments for the day, so we had whole evening for ourselves.

We started discussing as to how to spend the evening. Kim told that he would cook and we planned on watching a movie after dinner. It was a perfect plan for the perfect evening. We reached home. We rested for few minutes. Then we sat in the living room planning what to cook and what to watch later on. I called the housekeeper and told her not to come in the evening to cook for us. By then Kim had listed what he was cooking. It was all my favorites.

But the thing that strike my mind was when did Kim learn cooking. We never cooked anything else apart from instant noodles once in a while. I asked him and he told that he had practiced it during the summer breaks when at home. And there I was literally like a lazy ass sleeping all day or having fun, I didn't even think about it.

Kim went to kitchen I followed him he checked and confirmed that all the ingredients he needed were there and he would start cooking. But we hadn't decided what to watch. So I sat on the other side of the kitchen on bar stool and started discussing about it. After discussing I started watching how Kim was moving around in the kitchen he looked genuinely happy and was really in good mood while cooking. He surprisingly amazed me each time by showing the shades of him that I never saw before. He finished cooking within three hours and I was damn hungry. The hunger that I never felt before. The aroma of the dishes was making me go crazy.

Soon we helped each other to move all the dishes to the dining table and we started eating. I was literally spellbound, the taste of his food was out of the world. I kept telling him how good the food was and he was smiling and nodding acknowledging to whatever I said. I was literally getting addicted to his cooking with each spoon in my mouth. I had too much than I usually had. It was delicious and I loved it. We even had small talks in between. It was fun and lively.

By the time we finished eating and cleaning the dishes it was around 10. We had decided on watching a documentary on nature. I made myself comfortable on Kim's lap turned towards the screen started the documentary, Kim placed his hand on my shoulder and the other hand playing with my hair. That is all I remember I don't remember watching anything else apart from the trees in the introductory part. ...
