Deke Johnson

Deke was not sure if this was the best plan, but according to his sources he had to get a wife or at least just somebody who could double as his girlfriend. Of course none of the women at work was elligible, he did not prefer to search outside of town for anybody as the rest of the elligible women in town just was not the type he would be seen with.

Fact is that Deke's cover is that of a computer programmer, of course he could do his work as well as the rest of them, but he wasn't quite the nerd people mistook him for. In truth he was one of the best hired hitmen available, discreet and always fulfilled his contract to the letter. He was waiting as the bus stop, his "bride" was to arrive any minute and he waited with the fidgety nervous one one would expect of a person out of his depth, while inside he was as calm as before he pulled a trigger.
 
Vimala looks around nervously as she step off the bus, and picked up her bag.
She slipped her hand into her pocket to pull out the picture her parents gave her. She quietly sits on a bench as she could not see well through the crowed. she can still remember fighting with her father about this arrangement, but as usual he refuse to hear of it and send her off. She finds herself wondering if she should run away but did not know where to go. She ran her hands over her white saree, gently tapping her fingers over her knee. Glance once more around her with her blue eyes, as her long braided hair fell over her shoulder. She was quite petite, 5 feet tall and thin, the sound of her bangles following every move she made.

Deke noticed her the moment she stepped from the bus, but waited, soon though he made his way over to her, she was small and petite. Of course his 6'8" frame did make him stand out in a crowd, but he had his ways to stay unnoticed. He moved over to her, her picture did not do her justice, she was much prettier in the flesh. He stopped next to her and in a friendly yet gawky voice addressed her,

"Vimala?"
 
Vimala looks up, blinking as she cant believe how tall he is: umm...yes? stands up and bows and replies in a light accent: hello....ummm...Its a pleasure to see you...*picks up her luggage after a quick glance at the picture and glance at him to make sure he was the right person: I'm sorry...i dd not expect you be so tall..
*looks down at her feet, shyly*
 
Deke Johnson

He returned the bow out of respect for her own heritage,

"Here let me help you with those,"

he took the luggage from her, his hand brushing over her's, finding the skin soft and velvety, he gave her a reassuring smile,

"Don't worry, I will not bite because I'm taller than you."

Leading the way to his car, he found that she walked with a flowing grace, this was interesting, but not unheard of...well unless she had some extra skills not mentioned before. He stopped at the car, opened the boot and placed her luggage inside. After closing the boot, he unlocked the doors and opened the passenger door for her.

"Would you like to get something to eat or drink before we go to my home?"
 
Vimala looks at him: umm...i....i mean...if your hungry , i don't mind...*blushes as she gets in the car. Runs her hands over her dress gently caressing the materiel as she did not know how to behave around him. She can still remember arguing with her father begging him not to arrange this marriage. She never wanted to leave her homeland and even less by with a stranger that she could not imagine have anything in common.
 
Deke Johnson

He closed the door and got in behind the wheel,

"Well I can wait, but it is about what you would prefer as well."

He noticed her fidgeting and reached out to pat her hand gently,

"Relax, you are here, nobody will force anything that you don't want to do onto you."

He watched her and noticed that he had a slight need to kiss her, but that would come in time, right now he had to get to know her first.
 
Vimala takes a deep breathe as she tries to relax smiles as he pats her hands: ummm...what....we...do now? *blushes as she looks down at her hands as she imagine how silly her accent must sound to him*go...to ...to the...home?
 
Deke Johnson

How adorable she actually looked when she blushed,

"Tell you what, you tell me what you want to do as you are now my guest."
 
Vimala blushes: ummm...i don't know....ummm....home?...know...each...other? *thinks and realize she does not know enough of this location to suggest anything better*
 
Deke Johnson

"Home it is,"

he gave her a smile as he started the car, checked for traffic and pulled out into the street. Driving back home, he glanced over at her,

"Tell me more about yourself please."
 
Vimala smiles: ummm...i...come from big....family....i have 4 older brothers and 1 sister...they all married...my parents alive...i have a large garden....i love walks and shopping....and dancing..*looks down blushing* and you?
 
Deke Johnson

"Me? I'm the only child, both my parents have passed away and I work as a Computer Programmer. I do have a garden, but I only water it so it is a bit...lacking. I still don't know why I made it in the first place."

He gave her a smile,

"I hope you don't mind cooking, I have all the ingredients, but I am a terrible cook. The only thing I can make is eggs and toast"
 
Vimala giggles: toasts and eggs sounds nice...i don't mind cooking...i could teach you as well...if you wish. *blushes* Well...since you have land, i could make a garden ...it cost less and fresh vegetable is much healthier.
 
Deke Johnson

He nodded,

"I'm a terrible learner, but if you want to give a try at teaching me, I'm willing to try."

Smiling at her he pulled into the yard and drove to the house past the sparse, but neat garden. He motioned at the grounds,

"I had somebody clean it, it doesn't usually look this way."
 
Vimala smiles: you have a beautiful home...how long you live here? *unsure what to ask him as she was soo nervous*
 
Deke Johnson

"I've lived here for two years now. I moved here from the city, it's quiter here."

He got out, opened her door for her and held a hand to help her out of the car
 
Vimala smiles as she took his hand and step out of the car.Looking up at his beautiful home: its so pretty and big...its hard to believe that you live here alone. Do you really have no one living here with you? *glancing back at him shyly*
 
Deke Johnson

He smiled at her,

"Yes I live here alone, it is a pain to keep such a huge place clean."

He collected her luggage and made his way to the front door, giving her enough time to study the house and the only thing that he was really proud of, the arch and foot path to the front door. It was something he had made and laid out himself.
 
Vimala notices the arch and foot path to the front door and smiles: that's so beautiful...*Follows him inside the house smiling: I cant believe i am truly here...
**She was pleased that he was such a kind person**
 
Deke Johnson

He smiled at her,

"It must've been a long journey for you, I will show you to your room so that you can freshen up and if you wish to rest you may."

He moved down the hallway to the last door on the left, he opened the door and walked inside, the room had a double bed, curtains, an armchair, nightstand and wall mounted closets. All of which was in a dark mahogany, the drapes and bedspread was the same forest green and the armchair was of black leather. He placed her luggage on the bed and stepped to one door, opening it to reveal a bathroom.

"This room will be yours until you decide otherwise, my room is just across the hall."
 
Vimala look around the room in awe as it was so much better then her room at home. Looks around as she smiles in awe before turning to him smiling: Thank you for being so kind....*blushes before turning to examine the room as she was excited to settle down. She turns back to him: may i call my father, tell him i arrived safely?
 
Deke Johnson

"Sure, the telephone is right here."

He led her to the kitchen where the telephone was fixed to the wall,

"I will be in the living room, just to give you some privacy and all that."
 
Vimala smiles as she bows; thank you * pulls out her booklet to dial the code before her number as she is answered: mother...yess...i am here....his very nice...its soo big...yes...oh yess...i don't know...i will have to ask him later...oh...is granny well? yes...give them kisses...yes...i see if he allows me...ok..*kisses and hangs up .Goes to put her baggage in the room and goes to find her husband. Smiles as she finds him: umm...i wanted ask...what will ummm....routine be...*blushes* in the house...
 
He looked up when Vimala entered, her whole timidness bothered him slightly, but it was needed for his cover,

"Well I get up early and I get breakfast from a shop, I come home to make myself lunch and in the evenings supper, so it would be nice if you could prepare food for me. Otherwise the gardener comes in every second week, but if you want to work on the garden yourself, I can cancel that. Also a maid comes in every week to clean up, but if you wish to do that as well, I can cancel that also. All up to you Vimala."
