Puzzle

“Can I come with you? Would it be proper?” she asked, almost nonchalantly, when he was about to leave.

He looked at her; he was slowly realizing that she was a puzzle which he could not unravel.

“You very well know that the invitation is for both of us; you did not want to come; you were adamant; I had told you that it would be very embarrassing for me if you were not with me, but still you declined.”

“I wanted you to insist but you did not; you chose to abandon me.”

“Abandon you? How could you even say that?”

“Yes, I know. You are just waiting for an opportunity. But I won’t let you flirt with those….”

He left wondering did he ever love her or did she ever love him. 

Outside, it was all foggy.
