Chapter 140 - Man's way to heart!

Rose had placed her head on the pile papers lying on her table, looking sideways. She was looking at her phone's screen, in a delimma. Should I call him back? I made him feel terrible! Why can't I just control my tongue?!

Her face appeared like a sad puppy, looking sadly at the emptied bowl of its favourite meal.

Their was a knock on the door but Rose was not in a mood to answer it. The person knocked again, but Rose did not budge. The door eventually opened and Stefen stepped inside, with a file in his hand.

"Why aren't you....What happened boss? Aren't you feeling well? Stefen looked at her in seriousness.

"No! Call a cardio-surgeon," she replied meekly, looking constantly at the phone's screen.

Stefen pinched his nose in frustration," cardio-surgeon"?

"Yes! I am heartbroken. My heart needs an instant replacement," she said fiddling her phone with her hand.

Stefen almost chocked on his saliva listening to her logic. Since when did this girl turn so melodramatic? "What happened"?

"I am heartbroken," she repeated.

Stefen tried hard to control his frustration. "I know that but, why?"

"I had a fight with him. He doesn't want to talk to me. I had called him up to inform him that you want to meet, but blurted some nasty things to him," she said finally picking up her head. Her hands was now on her forehead and she was starring blankly at a wall.

"Hmmm...you basically vent out my frustration on him! I got it." He spoke feeling a little guilty, looking at her sad face.

Her puppy face turned worse. "I freaked out that you might not like him and maybe he is not good enough."

"I am sorry sister! Since you trust him so much, I trust your instincts too. Go and meet him". Stefen gave out a thumbs up signal to her and smiled happily.

Rose gaped at him unbelievably. "Really! What made you change your mind?"

"I was going through is profile carefully. He has done some pretty good stuff for the society, specially for orphened kids. I even enquired about him, from a few friends working in Excel. They only have high praises for him. Infact I had come back to tell you, that I have changed my mind," he said shrugging his shoulders.

"Really? Thank you brother! You are the best!" She climbed on top of the table in just one swift move and jumped directly on Stefen.

Stefen was by now used to Rose's hyper active state. She would often do such stupid and powerful things, while she was feeling excited or sad. He quickly caught hold of her by her waist, like catching a ball. He hugged her tightly and gave her a peck on her cheek.

"But keep your phone with you all the time. I will call you often to know about your whereabouts," he warned her, making her stand on the floor steadily, by releasing his grip from her waist.

"Offcourse sweetheart! But....he is furious! What do I do to make up for my bad behaviour?" She sulked again, pondering hard.

They both settled themselves on the couch, trying to find a solution.

"Just cook up an idea Stefen! Common"!

She poked him constantly with her finger, irritating him to the core.

"That's it! Cook! They say a man's way to his heart is through his stomach! Just go there and cook something nice for him", he said, admiring himself for bringing up a fabulous idea.

Rose gulped in anticipation. Cooking?!!!!
