“Don’t act modest now. She’s the kind who’ll sit next to you and touch your arm every three minutes without realizing.”
Abhi laughed. “And you’re just going to let that happen?”
Madhavi walked back toward him slowly. “Of course,” she said. “She’s not mine. And you’re not mine either. So technically...”
She leaned forward slightly, voice dropping into something quieter.
“I can even help you make her like you.”
Abhi blinked. “Help me?”
Madhavi nodded, sipping her coffee again, now standing very close.
“You’re decent-looking. Polite. Reserved. She likes the flirty types though.”
“Confident, cheeky. Like me,” she said, smiling at her own joke.
Abhi gave her a look. “And what’s your role in this plan?”
“I’ll talk to her,” she said simply. “Tell her you’re single. Smart. Secretly naughty. She’ll get curious.”
She took one more step forward.
“Then I’ll step away. Let her sit closer. See what happens.”
Abhi tilted his head, smiling now. “You enjoy this too much.”
Madhavi’s eyes sparkled. “I enjoy watching you squirm.”
She walked past him again,
This time letting her fingers graze the back of his neck before she went to rinse her tumbler in the kitchen.
Sandeep, from across the room, called out, “So what snacks do we have for evening?”
Madhavi answered without turning back. “We’ll have something hot. And spicy. And maybe a little dangerous.”
Her voice was light, but Abhi caught the double meaning.
She was already walking away.
