Love is a lot like a backache, it doesn't show up on X-rays, but you know it's there.

At, Tina's Apartment,

Dining table,

Alan: *Eating* *cutting* *chewing* *drinking*

Tina silently analysed the scared handsome man with fine blonde hairs whose sleeves were rolled perfectly till his elbow, jacket loosely hanging behind his chair, hairs pushed back to head, and lastly glass of water in his one hand while the spoon in other.

She wanted to object eating rice, chapattis and her indian dishes with fork, knife and spoon but dropped the idea. He was eating so peacefully almost resembling the hungry beggar who didn't have single piece of food for years. Is she really the charming famous richest man, Alan Kai Angelo? It was hard to believe he has fit body with this much stomach he is busy stuffing into his stomach non-stop.

Pity, he is fit without bulging round tummy.

"Fill this water." He demanded again which she obliged with sympathetic eyes. If he wasn't mad to make me angry. Sadly, the deed is done now he has to endure.

No. She didn't want to do this with him. Or her silly bestie.

In starting, she has prepared less spicy and oily, mushroom rice with simple paneer matar ( cheese and peas). Since, the Londoners were not so fond of spicy masala food like her and indian peoples she made it simple. But instead it backfired her good girl reputation. So she went all mad at them.

Flashback:

She served the dishes normally.

After taking two bites,

Her traitor friend (Saanvi): *tasting paneer* umm.. yaar, this is .. there's lack of salt.. and have you not put any masala I cannot taste anything.. thoda chatpata hota tho maza a jata.

(A/N: my Beautiful readers can translate this for non indian readers. Thankyou:)

Pig Angelo (Alan): *yuck* So bland.. what is this poor food..

Tina's patience level 35%

Saanvi tasting mushroom rice : *coughing* this also lack spices.. you know , I like dried clover in it.

Pig Angelo: *frowning* that's it. Nothing much to eat. *Looking at his watch* I've wasted my precious time here for these.. I am really busy man Miss Tanuja.

Tina's patience level: 35% to 0%

:

Symptoms of spicy oily food with lots of butter and masala-

Eyes and nose ,burning & running

Need to drink whole drum of water

Fanning tongue

She watched more shocked and less in amusement as Alan Angelo was actually done with everything she has prepared till now. Nothing was left except her traitor friend's half finished chana masala mixed with rice in own her plate.

Tina suddenly remembered the most important thing she left in her pocket of apron. Where it is? Ahh ! Found it.

With fake neutral face she held out in front of Alan and put it down beside his plate for him to see. Hehe... This bhukkad!!

Alan gulped the full glass of water and pushed his spoon down sighing. Oh f* sake the food was delicious, so good to be true. But only and most important problem was the amount of pepper in it. Is she crazy? And wants to kill him by putting this much chillies. But no problem, Alan Angelo never back down from a challenge. Just bring it on.

He saw the same tempting witch placing something in front of him. By close inspection it was a medicine. Medicine for..

He looked up and met the pairs of bewitching brown eyes giving him a strange look.

"Please take this Sir."

She tried to sound polite but something was Strange about the way she phrased her words which made him look down at the medicine.

Oh! This little demon thinks so much for me.

He casually leaned back on his chair.

"Why? What is this for?"

Tina cleared her throat to control her smile. Oh , so now he wants to play innocent. She already noticed him giving the medicine a brief look.

"It is to keep your digestion in check Sir. So you won't have any dirrahea, or loose motion and yes, stomachache later. After all the things you have eaten just now. I'm quite sure you will need this sooner than later."

After completing her speech as good human she waited for his outburst.

Nothing. He was calm as cucumber even smiling exactly like a cherish cat.

His lips opened showing her full sets of white shining teeths in smile as he casually pushed back his chair and stood up straight.

And this was her disadvantage. She didn't notice before but he is infact really tall. Tall as Giraffe. Abort ..abort previous name.. it's Giraffe Angelo now.

His height towered her petite body but she wasn't the one to back away in terror. Yes, she is sorry for the red swollen mark on his pretty head. Not this much to shiver in horror. He might be London's rich heir but this is her house. Her Kingdom. So no running away.

And she saw his full blown smile suddenly changed into an evil smirk. Lips curled up Alan raised both of his eyebrows, " You did this intentionally. Right, Miss Tanuja?"

Tina scrunched her nose in disgust. What's with this guy and obsession of repeating her old lady name.

"Tina. Everyone calls me Tina."

She quickly retorted back.

Alan simply shrugged his shoulders. He doesn't care. Tina-- Lisa.. Dory .. Morris.. everything sounds same to him.

"You didn't answer my question, Miss Tanuja."

"I do not know what are you trying to say. Sir." She gritted her teeths.

Shit! Am I going nuts or does she really looked hot getting all angry? It must have hit my head hard.

He couldn't help but took long steps forward and stood in front of the stubborn woman with no intentions to back down.

"I'm giving you last chance Miss Tanuja Sharma. You can accept your fault now, and maybe I will have big heart to forgive you. You can apologise too, you know."

His grey eyes twinkled. It was so much fun getting her all worked up.

"For the last time, It is Tina Sir." Tina gritted her teeth while smiling with tight sealed lips "and I do not know what you want me to accept & apologies for." I know but I won't. Never.

She never saw it coming, when the insufferable golden man's handsome face light up mischievously and when he lowered his face suddenly coming near her vision.

The last thing she noticed, his big shining grey eyes in front of her face and then something soft pressed on her lips.

The sensation of feather joining her parted mouth consumed senses of mind but the touch didn't move. There she felt it. A sting.

He bloody bit her lips with his teeths.

It was already too late for her to react. She was busted in a crime she never initiated.

"TINA!!"

A loud shriek grabbed her attention and it was none other than Saanvi staring at her in shock ,covering her mouth with both of her hands.

**

Saanvi eyes almost popped out of her sockets. She was so shocked to even move. My god, Is this Kiss day? Why where ever she go everyone is kissing eachother?

And to top of that, it was her sweet , hard headed, nuts of a friend. Who always had brave facade on while consoling her. And suddenly she cracked. Cracked under pair of heavy lips of a.. man.. a man who is a brother of a stalker.

She saw the funny scene still playing in front of her. Tina quickly pushed the golden haired man after punching the exact spot where she had hit him earlier.

"Owe oww oww.. MOM.. JESUS!! WOMAN !! "

Alan cried out loud holding his already swollen head in pain. Women in his life's are definitely violent.

"I am engaged you jerk." Tina screamed loudly.

Alan puffed his face annyoed

"so what? I am more into engaged and married womens. They are hot."

Her face widened horrified

"You sick fool. Stay away from me."

"I've been called worse." Was all his annyoed reply.

Saanvi could have laughed if she wasn't so shocked. She didn't notice when she took small steps backward and was instantly stopped by a strong arm of a man she was really familiar with encircling her waist protectively. Her nose wrinkled when it filled with his addicting scent.

She quickly looked up and she was right. It was him. Her mysterious Stranger man. Directly looking into her deep brown eyes with some unknown emotions inside his silver dark eyes. While his face was neutral without giving any hints about his thoughts she couldn't help but appreciate how beautiful he looked with his dark hairs cascading around his eyes. The same way, she dreamt about him.

And then you forcibly pulled him down to kiss.

Her face instantly flushed. With tips of her ears burning hot with heat. While images of her kissing him filled her pervert head.

"BROTHER! You are finally here."

A loud familiar annyoing voice interrupted Andres' inspection to his wife's cute little face. From appreciateting to it changed into disapproving look. This annyoing brat at wrong timing.

Alan quickly tried to jump into Andres' arms for comfort but instead was betrayed brutally. His own demon big Brother ignored him and stepped away from him with his wife wrapped in his arms.

He pouted hurt. "Brother, I am hurt."

Saanvi scratched her ears nervously which were red and hot. She was feeling more and more embarrassed and red thinking about his arms still around her waist doing something inside to her pounding heart. She wanted to step away but.. a tiny little part of her body made her freeze in her position without moving. Something about his embrace felt like... safe and.. home.

"What were you doing here?"

Andres asked coming to the main question. Ignoring the sulking little brat.

"Ahh.." Alan rubbed his wound losing in his thoughts. What should I say, so this monster Brother don't go all evil on him. Hmm..

He was actually supposed to report him back in office more than one and half hour ago. And yes, the reason for Viraj Khanna's invitation to Saanvi. But ofcourse he was veryyy late and busy feeding his always hungry stomach.

When Andres saw his brother cooking something inside his bean sized head he looked at the table behind him. There were two plates on the table. One was half eaten ,another clean. It was clear two persons were eating there previously. And another figure standing beside it in apron.

It was a woman, he was briefed as someone his wife was currently living with. .. Tanuja Sharma. And with the dirty apron she was wearing. It was no need to be genius to understand what was going on here a moment ago.

His lips twitched in fake humor. While his face darkened visibly as he shot chilly icy glares to his little spolied brother's direction. This brat was eating here.. while he sat there inside his office restless waiting for him.

His tall body stiffened more when he realised something. While he wasn't able to see his woman once or was not even welcomed inside her house, his traitor brother got to eat here without any objections. Inside his wife's house. Before him!!!

Alan broke out of his attempts to come up with any nonsense excuses feeling chilly icy daggers thrown in his way from his eyes.

He gulped. Dammit!! Please don't kill me Brother. I was about to come to you. I swear.

Without thinking he stepped forward again mocking pain, "ow!! Brother! Look. I'm hurt."

He starting rubbing his swollen red head and continued

" This happened when I went to fetch these two ladies here."

Alan pointed behind him and without any care pushed Tina into his mess for sympathy." See , this woman broke my head. This woman broke my, your little brother's sexy head. Here. See, all read and swollen."

Tina quickly shook her head in 'no'"What!! It was just mistake."

She was so irritated. This sick bastard.

Alan hid his smirk and gave his brother one of his innocent look.

Andres' hardened features softened a little. He removed his hand from his wife's thin waist not before giving her a look and patted Alan on his shoulder to console.

"Cover this with bandage. Will you."

Alan rubbed his eyes to clean his fake tears and flashed him a grateful smile " Yes. Sure Brother."

Andres sighed. He is really dramatic.

It was very strange to even think he was his brother. Sometimes people got confused too. Both of them were real opposite to eachother in personality. But they were a good tight team.

Tina finally muttered courage, pulling off her apron. She couldn't believe, one day THE ANDRES RON ANGELO, will be standing in front of her. The God, in business world. The hidden infamous public figure. A full proof hot, 28 years old bachelor.

The richest man in England is, standing in her tiny apartment. In front of her. Alive & talking.

Moreover, he isn't some old baldy man with two hairs on his head.

Unlike his little brother, he was more of a secretive and didn't prefer to be revealed all the times in magazines or televisions. He is more of a 'no invading privacy' type man.

But the thing is, in range of woman who wants to marry Angelo Brothers his demand is quite high. But, one question, Is he a gay? The question frequently asked by many seeing no track record of him with another female.. or man.

"It's my honor to have you in my home, Mr. Angelo. Please feel comfortable." Tina gave him a small respected smile.

Andres remained silent with no reaction.

On the other hand, Alan scoffed mentally. Look what the cat dragged here. He turned back to his brother & held his arm "Miss Tanuja, go bring Tea for for him. And I would like some refreshments too."

Tina's face flashed with irritation. I am not your maid. She wanted to scream but held her tongue. The infamous big Boss of Angelo corporation is here. Calm Tina. Calm.

Saanvi who was silent till now furrowed her eyes in confusion. Something felt off here. Something was definitely missing from her part.

She folded her hands behind her back and started to calculate the overall scene.

So first thing,.. The blonde man knew the God man,

Result: they are stalker Brothers

Second, The blonde man knew her and Tina,

Result: he is stalker cab driver

Lastly, and Strangely, Tina knew both of them and greeted her mysterious hot man

Result:???

While she on other side, Knew only Tina and no one else.

"Tina?" She called her friend who was about to unwillingly follow the pig Angelo's orders.

"Yea?"

She pointed her finger in direction of both of her suspects. "You know both of them. Right. Then why don't I? What's going on?"

She was frustrated by now. All those times when she tried to remember what the hell happened during that night at club. Or anything. Or trying to muster her non-existent courage to ask this man , WHO ARE YOU? AND HOW WHY I WAS WITH YOU THAT NIGHT?

And Tina, knew both of them. All this time.

She ignored the eye signal Tina started throwing her way to keep her shut up. "

"what's wrong with your eyes?"

She was more irritated when she noticed the hidden smile forming on his handsome face, while his brother looked all smug.

"Saanvi he--" Tina was about to continue revealing the man but was suddenly felt herself being dragged away by her arm.

"Hey!! Leave my hand. You pervert."She screamed.

Alan ignored the drama queen and continued dragging her with him "My Brother likes special type of tea. Let's go I will teach you." Brother you better use this chance and woo sister-in-law. I would have stayed. But who wants lovey-dovey shit.

"I can do it myself."

"You are so loud"

"You are the on--"

And finally the sound faded.

Saanvi stared at the two confused. When did these two got so close? She wasn't aware certain someone has taken long steps towards her by now and is standing in front of her in his all dominating aura.

She was startled when she found him standing beside her ,staring with those hidden eyes of his. That's when her stupid heart decided to beat faster once again and she nervously looked down at her fingers once again trying to hide her face with her dark curly hairs.

Speak, gadhi (donkey)! Cat got your tongue or what? You are jhasi ki raani. How can you act like afraid little bunny after exploding previously like that?

Andres silently looked at the face of shy girl. His wife, why's she so damn cute. His gaze softened when he realised she was nervous. So without any delay, he wanted to know her secrets. Her secrets why she went to meet that man. What happened there? There were so many questions for her.

Something little which was unknown feeling to him , which may or may not be called as jealousy ignited in his cold heart but nevertheless he was careful while slowly pushing her hairs behind her shoulder with his fingers to get a look at her angelic face.

"Why were you crying earlier?" He asked the same question.

Saanvi quickly accessed her brain for answer. Why was she crying? That questions seems familiar?

And then it clicked her. She bit her lips more embarrassed.

"Look at me."

It was his deep magnetic voice again which for some reason compelled her to look up at him.

Her big brown eyes shined as her face held that innocent look which instantly melted the devil's non-existent heart. Focus Andres! You're here for a purpose.

"What's your name?" Saanvi poped the question without answering.

This time he couldn't hold back, subconsciously his lips twitched upwards in a smile shocking Saanvi to death.

"Ugh!!! Why can't he always warn me beforehand, before doing that..how can a man look beautiful smiling"

She muttered to herself and looked away to the empty wall.

"You already know my name, Saanvi."

This made her look back at him and that's when she realised him holding back her hairs away from her face.

"No. I don't." She retorted back.

Andres smiled again but this time a secretive look was present on his usually blank face which moved her belief. Do I? Nope. I don't know his name.

So, stubbornly she folded her hands in front of her chest in defence. "No Mister Stalker. I don't know your name."

Andres' eyes darkened as he took one more step towards the clueless woman. The distance between them were thin as he could nearly heard the sounds of her heartbeat getting faster in his presence.
