Cruel World novel Chapter 63

Theo

'Hi! is she asleep' Theo enters Ava room and sit on her bed and lovingly grace her hair

Sarah close the book and replied in cold tone 'yeah..she was waiting for you but I can't find you anywhere'

Theo shake his head...when she will stop getting angry with him...he knew he shouldn't do that in her office but he lost it and damn it now he is paying for it

He kissed Ava head 'sorry I was with tom....thats why I get late' he tiredly drags his hand on his hair

Sarah doesn't reply just put the book and stand.

Theo was consciously looking at her. How he should make it better

He follows Sarah towards the room but then an idea came.

'Sarah I forget to tell you...you car had been delivered' theo cheerfully said

Sarah stopped but then continue walking 'ok thank you'

Theo sighs and gently hold her hand 'don't you want to see it. I was thinking for a test drive' he looked hopeful when he saw the excitement in Sarah's eyes but it was replaced with the cold look

'No theo I'm tired so I will resign now ' she said without looking him

But theo don't leave her hand 'please Sarah ...how many time I should say sorry....I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that but said to me that you somehow convince them and they are all ok as they were before...so why you are behaving like that'

Sarah passed him an angry look 'cause you shouldn't have done that in the first place and beside that there are some other things like

Theo complete her sentence ' like we had sex...oh I think we need to discuss that too.........so please come ...when you will get out I'm sure you will feel relax and I promise you can say all the stuff you want and I will listen...but please come for a drive...please please..' he begged her

Sarah's eyes got little soft and she looked confused what to do 'ok but I will only see the car..im not sure about driving'

Theo smiled 'we will see about that'

when they reached the garage ...theo waited for Sarah reaction he really wants to know whether she liked it or not

Sarah's eyes were bugged and all she said 'red?'

Theo was unsure 'why you don't like it'

Sarah bite her lower lips like she is stopping her laughter.....'hmmm no I'm wondering how you even place this super bright car with your other sleek subtle looking cars....and moreover how do you even order that...cause I know you hate bright stuff' Sarah said with huge smile on her face..like she is contorting to lose it

Theo felt relax...she is teasing him and he liked it for the first time 'i don't hate the bright colour, it's just not just my taste and secondly, this car is more big and advanced and more your type... I have noticed you liked bright girlish stuff'

Sarah's eyes seemed with emotions like she can't believe he notices her stuff...she shakes her head 'i don't like all girlish stuff just some of it.....and thank you for the car I love it'

Theo with great effort kiss her forehead 'no love no thank you...you never asked anything from me how can I reject that'

Sarah gulped and put a distance ..theo then continue 'are you sure you don't want a ride ...I'm mean it's your call but I was thinking to check it if you feel comfortable or  we can change it' he tries to make some story so that she agreed

Sarah was sharp 'i know what you are doing and yes i will drive it .well you did a great effort to brought a bright red color for me ' she said with a straight face with smiling eyes

Theo laughed 'ok ok make all fun you want but we will see who is better driver ..shall we' he pass her the key

............................................

Sarah

She was excited...she used to drive before marriage and she loved it...and now she wished she hasn't forgotten how to drive...she put on the belt and theo give her some instruction since it was high tech car ...

'ok its automatic, so I won't, think it will be an issue for you but since its a while you are driving we will take it small route ...how about just in her home street' theo asked her

Sarah nodes like she was in the mission but theo continue 'and one more thing'

Sarah asked suddenly 'whats that'

Theo smile 'just relax and stop shaking'

sarah saw her hands were really shaking....she took a deep breath 'ok I'm ready' she told him

It was little bumpy in the start but with theo guild lines and Sarah memory getting back made her drive little better than previous half an hour

Theo also took a deep breath 'oh god I'm basting the Ac at max. I'm sweating badly' he redoes the car cooling at max

sarah passed him an annoyed look 'im, not a bad driver...its just I'm driving after a long time and you know whose fault is that' she accused him

Theo shrug 'i didn't say anything'

Sarah got irritated by his non-serious answer and she speed the car..theo react 'wooooh chill lady...what you are doing...just slow down the speed' he order

sarah like this thrilled 'no i wont its my car...i can do what i want'

Thoe pass her a look 'well if you kill us on your first day of driving then you wont be driving again...just slow down ....please'

Sarah slow down when he said please...she is enjoying this power....she liked it...then she saw a street with bright lightening she read it was some sort of food festival

She turned to that direction ...theo looked her in confusion 'where you are going'

sarah excitedly said 'its some festival going on i want to go'

Theo shake her head 'no we are not and for your information, we cant take the car inside that street so no we are not'

Sarah dont listen to him and find a parking spot and park it...she undo her belt 'for your information im going....if you want to come then sure join me' she said it with a smile and open the door..she feel so relax and sense of contentment ..may be theo was right she really need to get out tonight

She heard theo also coming out with a sore face and grumbled 'I dont know its save to leave the car here'

Sarah walk with him 'dont be a snob...nothing will happen and secondly, i think its you who need to chill out and relax'

Theo stopped for a moment and realized sarah was happy and so beautiful ...he smiled 'what ever you say boss 'he winked

sarah felt hot and she look away..they started roaming around for a while and taste different type of appetizer

They stopped at some spicy tacos stall and got them...theo found the perfect sitting spot and sit down

'i will bring the soft drink..the amount of chilies are in this food i will get acidity' theo shake his head

Sarah took a bite 'you are judging a book by its cover theo'

Theo smiled at his wife cute and smart comeback .

When he was abck he got other stuff too like a chocolate cake and coffee...

Sarah got more hungry looking at the chocolate cake...theo answered 'i got a complimentary cake with the coffee'

sarah smiled 'well i wasnt complaining, chocolate cake its my favorite'

Theo got happy that finally, she is relaxing

When they were done with the food.,, they were now having a cup of coffee...sarah knew theo is about to talk about

Theo said 'can we talk now please'

Sarah looks down and nodes 'ok..but if you make me feel uncomfortable then i wont'

theo nodes 'i wont and if i did you can tell me directly ok....so tell me what happen in the morning why you were looking so disturb and cold towards me' he gently asked

Sarah took a moment to answer that 'i was..i dont know i was confused...it was so unexpected...i know it was not your fault and i get it we both were involved in that act willingly but it was so much between us thats still unclear and i found this abnormal...thats why i was little harsh this morning' she looked guilty

Theo give her a understand looked 'thank you for telling me and sarah its ok to feel like that but if you want my honest answer i love every moment with y0u that night ...i never ever regret that....'

Sarah stare at him and then she was quite...she was processing all this in her mind ... 'ok my turn (theo looks up and nodes) and i get it if you dotn want to answer that..why you didnt tell abut that june women to your parents when she died' she said slowly

Theo give her stun look 'ok i didnt see that coming.....(he pinched his nose) ok i didnt tell anyone cause i found this it was useless...she was dead..and what else punishment she can get ...my parents can hurt already a dead person..secondly i feel embarrassed....sarah i was quite big guy at thirteen so i doubt my strength and man power....i hope you get what i mean'

Sarah eyes become moist and nodes 'i completely get it'

Sarah can see how theo mood has been a shift to negative and sad....he was lost...she need to change the topic 'ok what you were talking about to tom'

Theo came back from his trance 'dont you think its my turn now....but i will answered that...tom and lisa are going to london for good'

Sarah almost drop the coffee'what but why'

Theo looks guilty and sad 'cause lisa is depressed and tom is also not ok right now....and living here makes them more sad and hopeless so they are going to london for a fresh start'

Sarah felt immensely bad 'sometime i feel so bad for them'

Theo also nodes 'me too..its killing me to look my family so disoted and tangled in the misery web....first dad illness then mom in the prison ...and now my brother and his family in depression...i think its karma ...we are paying badly for our sins...even the innocent one are becoming the victim of this'

Sarah close her eyes ...she knew what he is referring too....

Theo then stand 'shall we go'

Sarah stands 'ok'

Sarah can feel the tension in the car and she dont like it, a few hours ago they were so fine and now ...she was right there are so unexpalianed things that dont let them move on...

After parking the car at the home garage

They quitely walk to the door...but sarah wanted to make this night little better

she stopped in front of theo ..theo raised his brows

sarah lick her lips 'i ...i jsut...i just wanted to say thank you for thsi car and for the ride..you were right i enjoyed it 'she kissed theo cheeks

Theo eyes beamed with a spark 'your welcome'

Sarah give him a shy smile and walked away.
