Chapter 12 – Good চুম্বন Good Dream -
Cuddy got প্রথমপাতা and kept that strange moment in her mind. He was so close to her. Was he thinking about giving her a chance? Was he giving her a sign? She was confused and tired. Once inside, Cuddy left her ব্রিফকেস and টাকার থলি on the floor, took her কোট and fell on the sofa. She fell asleep instantly.
Suddenly, she heard her mobile ringing. Not now, she thought. Yawning she picked it up.
“Hello?”
“Were আপনি sleeping?”
“House?” She asked, আরো awaked.
“Who else...” He said.
“What do আপনি want? I’m tired I need to sleep.”
“Don’t hang up!” He pleaded.
“House, come on, what do আপনি want? Can’t this wait until tomorrow?” She asked trying to hurry him.
“Maybe it can.” He ব্যক্ত nicely.
“Okay then. So we’ll talk tomorrow.”
“Maybe it can’t.”
“House, please stop with the silly games; I’m going to hang up.” She threatened.
“If আপনি would, আপনি already had done it.” He smiled on the other side.
Biip-biip. She actually had done it.
Cuddy heard a soft knock on her door. Oh come on, I need a break, she thought. She got up and opened the door. There was a man outside, looking at her, staring. She opened her eyes to see if she was seeing well.
“I can’t believe আপনি were outside.” She told him.
“I can’t believe আপনি hung up on me.” House replied.
“What do আপনি want, House?” She asked with her arm on the door.
“I want to get inside for starters.”
She looked him in the eyes and opened the door. He walked in.
She closed the door and watched him sitting on her sofa.
“Why are আপনি here, House?” she asked.
“Do I need a reason?”
“You always need a reason; you’re based in rational explanations for everything. So why are আপনি here?”
“I needed to come here.”
She sat in front of him “To my house?”
“To wherever আপনি were.” He ব্যক্ত not looking at her.
She kept looking at him, trying to understand if he was implying what she thought he was. “What do আপনি mean with that?”
“I need time.”
“Time? What for? আপনি got me হারিয়ে গেছে now.”
He sighed and spoke again “I was being someone that I’m not sure if I can actually be. So, I need time to understand who I am in the middle of those two Houses that আপনি recently met.”
“And that means that we...” She didn’t finish, she didn’t knew how to finish that phrase.
“That means that আপনি might not know me that much. If I don’t, how can you?”
“You know exactly how আপনি are. Don’t act like a desperate teenager who’s having an identity crisis.”
He looked at her; he knew that she was right. He knew himself, that soft House was a just a mixed phase of his own fragility. He got up and walked to the door.
She followed him and asked “So that’s it? You’re leaving...” even though she was a little afraid of how he would answer.
He suddenly turned to fully face her. Hands found her face and Cuddy felt House’s warmth. His lips found hers. Here was the old House Cuddy knew. He leaned further forward; Cuddy pressed against the door and kissed him back. There was no need to think about anything. There was no time to.
And as quickly as it happened, the moment vanished as House lifted his hands and broke the চুম্বন to look her in the eyes.
“Thanks.” he said.
She stood against the door watching him go. “Oh my God.” She thought out loud, touching her lips and smiling at the same time. She bit her lip and went to her room, after a night like that she couldn’t ask for anything আরো than to have a good dream, a dream with House.
