She woke up as she was disturbed by the noise that was coming from the kitchen. She sat up on the bed and waited for a minute rubbing her eyes with both hands. Her hair was a little messy after a good night's sleep. She yawned once more and sat there with her palms covering her face for a minute or so. Then she got up and heard the noise again. She remembered that Pryag was there he was probably doing something. He knew his way around her kitchen better than she did as she was not into cooking. She always felt there were better things to achieve in life than spend them in the kitchen. It so happened, that she didn't even have an opportunity to explore that area. After her mother fell ill, they always had a maid and that continued for years. Later, Pryag's mom was there to take care of that. By the time she settled into her own home, she was too much into her career and never really cared about making anything really. Most of the time she had lunch meetings with clients and dinner was usually a quick fix like a sandwich or a soup. Then only thing that really learnt and knew how to make were eggs as she loved them and that was her usual breakfast. She opened the door and peeked out and she didn't see anyone but saw something on the table. She went back to her room and walked towards the bathroom. She washed her face and brushed her teeth. Brushed her hair a bit and took a scrunchie and tied it into a pony. Brushing her teeth she remembered the discussions they had last night. It irritated her and she decided not to think about it as it didn't make much sense either. It took her five more minutes to finish everything and when she opened the bathroom door she was totally surprised.
Pryag had prepared breakfast and had arranged everything nicely and has set everything up for her in her room. The room was darkened and he had decorated the room with roses here and there in shades of white and pink. There were some aroma candles to spread good fragrance around the room but still not overwhelming. He had a nice tray that he had picked up from her pantry with a small vase and a single red rose with a tiny note accompanying it tied in a red lace ribbon that made the whole thing look more delightful. There were grapes and strawberries nicely arranged in a small bowl enough for two. He had her favorite on a platter. Scrambled eggs and a toast. But he had added an extra special touch with some salsa & cheddar cheese and some extra sliced tomatoes. She was surprised. He bowed down to her as if she was the Queen of England and he was her butler. He smiled and said, "Please take a seat. Can I have the pleasure of accompanying you?" Her eyes opened wide and she was completely surprised and speechless. She walked over and took a seat at the edge of her bed. He served her breakfast and sat next to her and joined her. It was delicious and when she leaned forward to pick up the orange juice that was next to the fruits, there was a note below it that read, "Be careful not to spill it on the bed!". She laughed and gave a peck on his cheek and said, "This is beautiful. Thank you." When she was done with her breakfast she kept the plate and reached for the fruits. She noticed that there was a note attached to the rose. She smiled with her eyebrows raised and picked it up and opened, "Be prepared to be pampered like this for the rest of your life.”
