Leaving so early?" Aamir asked, his voice feigning surprise.
Mandira glanced at the clock on the wall. It was past nine, and the deserted building felt like a ghost town. "I should," she said, adjusting the strap of her bag. "It's a long drive back, and I have to be up early for my son's college function."
Aamir, the ever-charming ladies' man, shot her a disarming grin. "Nonsense! Dinner's on me. Consider it a small token of appreciation for putting up with my terrible jokes and questionable coffee habits all day long."
Mandira hesitated. The thought of a late dinner out, away from the mundane routine of home and hearth, was tempting. But the guilt of leaving her family, even for a short while, gnawed at her conscience.
"I don't know, Aamir," she began, her voice laced with doubt.
Aamir, sensing her wavering, pressed on. "Come on, Mandira. You haven't had a chance to properly unwind since morning when I started teaching you . Think of it as blowing off steam before a good night's sleep."
He knew just the right buttons to push. Mandira, thaught prospect of a brief escape, a chance to laugh and forget the impending workstorm because of absence of her husband, was undeniably appealing.
With a sigh of resignation, Mandira agreed. As they walked out into the chilly night air, the city lights twinkled like a distant promise of excitement. Aamir, his mission accomplished, exuded an air of triumphant mischief.
The restaurant, a dimly lit bistro tucked away in a quiet corner of the city, offered a welcome respite from the bustling streets. Aamir, well-versed in the city's hidden gems, ordered a platter of exotic appetizers and a light beer for himself.
For Mandira, he chose a Bacardi Breezer, its fruity sweetness masking the alcohol content. "Just a little something to loosen you up," he said with a wink.
Mandira, a conservative housewife whose idea of a wild night out was watching a Bollywood flick with her family, felt a pang of apprehension. But Aamir, with his disarming charm and infectious laughter, soon had her sipping the drink but little did she knew that with a slight of hand Aamir had secretly slipped that mysterious tablet in her drink and it quickly dissolved in it without mandira noticing, her initial resistance melting away.
As the night progressed, the conversation flowed freely, fueled by the heady mix of food, alcohol, and shared laughter. Mandira, usually reserved, found herself opening up, sharing stories and secrets she'd kept close to her heart. Aamir, a master listener, leaned in intently, his eyes reflecting a growing fascination.
That tablet was showing its effect . Mandira's cheeks flushed, her laughter became louder, her inhibitions fading like smoke in the air, it's as if she was not in control of her self . She found herself drawn to Aamir, his dark eyes holding a spark that sent a shiver down her spine.
Suddenly, the familiar comfort of her routine life felt stifling, the responsibilities of wife and mother a heavy weight on her shoulders. Aamir, in that moment, represented freedom, a glimpse of a life beyond the confines of her predictable world.
The night blurred into a kaleidoscope of laughter, whispered secrets, and stolen glances
