She stared at me with her face turning red. I could see in her eyes that if I did anything more she would surely be in tears. I said “I am sorry Uma, I could not resist your beauty”.
Uma stared back at me without saying anything. I understood she was at her breaking point because I had surely pushed her too much. She emptied her glass and said “I want to go home now”.
I settled the bill and we left from there. In the car she said “I am never ever going to come out with you again. You seem to get some sort of a thrill in embarrassing me in front of everyone”.
I pulled over to the side of the road and said “Uma you have understood it all wrong, I have only been pushing you to bring you out of your shyness for your own good”.
“I want you to come out of your shell and mingle with people, get comfortable with them, that’s all. Now that you have said such a big thing, I will no longer try anything. I am sorry”.
She sat quietly without looking at me, I continued driving and we reached home soon.
