Chapter 42: Chapter 42
"Sanaya, please control babe. You declared you won't be crying for him ever again and here you are crying again." Clara had been trying to comfort Sanaya. Those tears of hers were not because of her eating too many spicy foods but because of Nick.
"That jerk! How can he cheat on me..." Sanaya seized a spoonful of food again and whimpered louder. "You have been eating too much. Let's go back now. It's not good for you to ..."
Sanaya confronted what Clara told her. Taking her phone out of her purse she showed it to Clara. "This is how he looks, you see? Handsome jerk! And he cheated on me, his wife. Am I not beautiful enough? Why must he hurt me this way?"
"Sanaya..."
"This jerk! Baje(bad), soytan(devil), mon bole kichu nei(doesn't have a heart)! Ami ki korechi (what did I do), baje akta lok (a bad man)..." Clara kneaded her forehead in distress. It had been nearly two hours and Sanaya had been talking in alien language that was hard to understand. Not only because Clara could not understand her language but because she was muttering that it made it hard for her to even detect what she was saying.
"Ma'am, we are going to close soon. Are you...." Sanaya was still mumbling until a waiter came in to disturb her. "We are not going." Before the waiter could say anything Sanaya got up to her chair and then sat again.
The waiter glimpsed at Clara with a troubled look. "Sorry, we are leaving. Gimme...."
"I told you we are not leaving!" Sanaya dismissed Clara.
"Sanaya, it's already 1 am and..." Sanaya cut her off and she pointed her finger at the waiter. "You! Come here!"
"Me?"
Sanaya bobbed her head at the waiter. As he sauntered towards her she giggled at him. Clara started feeling something was about to happen, Sanaya was up to something for sure. Like Clara thought, Sanaya yanked the waiter by his hand and made him sit next to her. She grinned at him cheekily, Clara was tensed. What was she going to do?
In the blink of an eye Clara saw the waiter was eating the food Sanaya ordered but did not eat and Sanaya was forcing him to eat them. Just a spoonful of one and the waiter was burning hot. Clara felt bad seeing the waiter cry. But Sanaya was grinning as if she was having fun.
"She surely lost her mind. What should I do now? Should I call Nick? No, if he comes here she will be angry at me." Clara got up and tried saving the waiter first.
"Ahh, Sanaya. Why don't we ..." But she shut her mouth as Sanaya scowled at her. "All men are the same in the world. They cheat on their wife, their girlfriend. I am punishing him because he has cheated on his girlfriend!" And she continued to force the waiter to eat spicy foods on the plate.
"No, look at him. He is not Nick. He did not cheat on...."
Even though Clara was trying to save the waiter but suddenly the waiter himself ruined her plan of saving him. "I am sorry, I will never cheat on any girl. Please let me ..... Go."
What? What was going on here? Clara clenched her fists hearing him. Wow, she met a stupid here. She was going to save him and he had dug up his own grave himself. Damn it!
Clara could only see what was happening in front of her but she could not stop it. She stopped hoping that they were going to go anywhere tonight. Even though Sanaya was not drunk but she probably had lost her mind.
Another hour had passed, Sanaya was swaggering crazily. "O, God! What can I do to stop her? She is hurting herself! Is eating too many spicy makes you lose your mind?" Clara whispered.
"Clara, come and dance with me." She heard Sanaya to welcome her. It was getting to the worst. She just thought that Sanaya wanted to have her favorite dishes at some restaurant but who knew that she would order all the spicy foods she could!

"What? She hasn't come back yet?" Nick just came back to the mansion. He was hungry but as he heard she did not come back yet he lost his appetite.
"Little Nick, where are you going?" Seeing him stroll towards the grand foyer Mrs. Elisa asked him.
"To get her. She might be at her bestfriend's house." With that, he grabbed his jacket from the couch and strode towards the car. As he got in he called Sanaya.
He was very busy at work so he could not check on her since this morning he saw her but he did not think that she would again decide to stay at Clara's house.
'Strange! What is she doing? Why not pick up my calls!' It was the same. He kept calling her but no replies. The more seconds passed the more he was getting restless. He drove faster to reach Clara's home.
There, Sanaya was squatting on the couch when so many tissues were on the floor. She wiped off her nose with another tissue and tossed it on the floor.
"Sanaya, please don't cry anymore. You will get sick this way." Clara tried to console her while patting her shoulder. It was sad to see Sanaya be so sad. Clara always saw her stay happy and this soon turned into darkness.
"You know, it hurts here. I can not stop crying even though I try... You tell me, why did he cheat on me? Am I so bad that he cannot even fall for me? Am I so ..."
Touching her cheeks Clara nodded her head in disagreement. "No, you are not bad. You are the most precious, babe. He will regret being a jerk soon."
"Hmm, he will. He will regr... Regret." Wiping off her tears Sanaya got up. She extended her hands towards Clara and announced, "Let's go. I won't cry anymore."
"Are you sure?"
As Sanaya bobbed her head Clara smiled brightly. Finally, she stopped crying.
Nick was surprised to see nobody was at Clara's home. Strange! He called Sanaya's phone number again but it rang first then the same again.
In a rage, he was about to throw his phone but as he remembered that throwing it away would make problems for him. How would he call Sanaya? And know where she was at currently?
Grabbing his hair he screamed angrily. "This girl! What does she think she is! What will happen if she gets into trouble or she runs into some bad guys? Damn it!..."
Getting in his car he started looking around if he could see her anywhere. He was still searching for her when Mrs. Elisa called him.
"...She is back?" Hearing that Sanaya came back he drove back to the mansion at the highest speed.
"Sanaya." Sanaya was lying on the couch, throwing her shoes here and there. Mrs. Elisa was looking at her in utter shock.
Not only her but even Nick was surprised to see her that way. He walked to her getting one of her shoes of the floor. "What time is it now? Why are you back so late?" Putting her shoe near her legs he asked her.
Yes, she was waiting for this. She was waiting when he would come back. There were days like this before when she wanted for him, it was late and he still did not come back. Did she ask him why he came back late?
Sanaya took a sigh of annoyance and then getting up she walked towards the staircase without giving him any answer to his questions. Nick followed her, how could she be arrogant? Without giving him answers she could not go anywhere!
Holding her hand from behind he asked her again, "I asked you something. Where have you been this late? Do you know I have been looking for you? I called you and you did not even..."
"Why should I answer you?"
"What?"
"I was waiting for you since you went outside to look for me. Since you are here I will go back to my room." With that Sanaya walked upstairs, leaving him in utter shock. Slowly her behavior was changing, she was becoming ruder.
"Little Nick, I think she might be very tired that's why she is not in her right mind." Mrs. Elisa tried to explain. "Tired? That doesn't give her any right to be rude to me. I could have just had my dinner and slept peacefully but I went to look for her. Am I not tired?"
Sanaya was about to close the door as she walked into her room. Just then Nick pulled her forearm, to make her turn towards him.
"Were you with your best friend?" He questioned her.
Wow, Sanaya found him being too funny. He was so consistent, though she told him she did not want to answer he dared to ask her again. So he could come late or even not come back the whole night but she could not? Sanaya let out a soft chuckle instead of answering him.
"What's so funny?"
"You." She answered him shortly.
"What do you mean?"
Taking a sigh Sanaya tried to stay calm first. She was not going to be emotional, no way.
She held her hand gently and then pushed him away as if he was some any, throwing him away as she wanted? That's what he felt. "Let me make something clear. From now on, whatever you want do it and for me, I will do whatever I want. You, Nicolas Davis. Don't meddle in. Ok?"
What? Nick could not help but chuckle. Was not she acting weird? What happened to her? Even two days ago she was ok and then she started acting weird that he could not understand if she was Sanaya or some ghost got into her body and controlling her.
As he saw she was about to close the door he pushed her and got in her room then he closed the door by kicking it using his leg.
He pinned her against the wall and she glared at him. "First and foremost, it's not you but me who will have the final say. You have stopped wearing the wedding ring, you are coming back late and you don't tell me where you were. Now, you don't even pick up my calls, you living as you want and I did not say much. But that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. You can have your freedom but don't take..."
For the first-ever time, he was shocked. Suddenly Sanaya pushed him away and then they changed their positions. Now, Nick was pinned against the wall and Sanaya had her hands on either side of him.
"I can do WHATEVER I want. Who are you to tell me huh? I have been quite a boka (stupid) until now, kintu ar na (but not anymore)." Nick could not understand what was said at the last. "What baka? What did you say?"
"That's not important. You... You can do whatever you want in your life and I will do whatever I want to do in my life. Did you hear it? That's enough." She explained.
She was daring indeed. She was giving him options? Did she think she was some queen? She moved away, thinking he would finally leave her. She was tired anyway.
But surprising her, he grabbed her hand and dragged her to the bed. Pushing her on the bed he got on top of her. Sanaya was surprised, she gulped as he leaned closer.
"Move... Move away..." She uttered as he leaned more closer. "What were you saying earlier?"
Sanaya moved her head to her left to avoid his closeness that started affecting her. But he touched her face and made her glare at him. He squeezed her cheeks lovingly, their eyes fixed at each other.
'This jerk! My heart needs treatment I guess. Why can't I move...' Sanaya shut her mouth, to make sure he would not kiss her.
"Wait, no....." Nick leaned forward and Sanaya was thinking of what to do. "Don't kiss me, no..." She bit her lips and clenched her fists.
Ready to punch him if he was going to kiss her with that mouth he kissed another woman. But was it so easy to punch Nicolas Davis?
