Chapter 12: chapter 12

Aditya's POVI heard from Ashish that Sanjana is also a jewellery designer, I saw a ray of hope. This girl is talented, so I felt I could find something in her designs.I wanted to give it a try , so I  immediately took my car keys and said, "let's go"But she hesitated to come along with me , but finally gave in and agreed to come along.On the way, I wanted to initiate the talk , but  I felt she was already scared of me, let's not scare her more.I thought I will talk about something if she initiates.Soon, we reached her home, and she didn't speak a word to me.After she left to her house, I don't know why I felt disappointed.Ahhhh, Adi, why are you thinking much about that assistant, just ignore her, if she doesn't want to talk , let her be .she returned back with drafts in her hand.I don't know why my mood was off, so I made a serious face on the return journey.When we reached the office, she gave me her drafts. They were good but didn't meet my expectations.I don't know why ,I felt disappointed.. When I saw tears in her eyes just because I rejected her drafts I felt bad. I wanted to hug her and say," hey that's ok, they all are good , but I need a little different one that's it."But I cannot, "ufff Aditya you are thinking too much. just stop thinking about her and do your work. ",I was trying to be calm.When I took the last draft in my hands and saw the design I was astonished, that was really  brilliant, I even complimented her for that.When Ashish asked, is this the necklace you designed for yourself for your wedding??, I saw her  blushing.Yes , she indeed designed this for herself.I wanted to give her this ,so I casually said, I will give her on her wedding day as a gift.I wanted little modifications in it, so I asked her to come stand beside me. She stood beside me, she is much shorter than me, I could  smell a pleasant  shampoo from her hair,  I felt good when she was next to me.When I was explaining the details she never looked at me, she was looking at the draft, again I felt disappointed.Adi, what is happening to you, why do you want  her attention , just ignore her and  concentrate on your work, I said to myself.She started working on the draft , and I was sitting opposite her working on my laptop, I looked at her once , she was  indeed beautiful with fair and delicate skin. Her eyes, nose ,lips, jawline, her neck, Shhhhh Adi, stop stop stop..... Why are you behaving strangely today, as if you have  never seen a beautiful girl? "Concentrate Adi Concentrate ".When she said she finished her design, I felt happy for her. I was satisfied with the design and thanked her.When I looked at the time, it was almost 9:30 , I suggested everyone go out for dinner but she denied.but when Ashish asked her to come, she agreed, I don't know why, I was angry, I felt jealous.we finished our dinner and when I was paying ,I saw her trying to call someone. looks like the other side didn't respond and she looked disappointed.I think she is calling someone to pick her up.and when Anika said, she will drop her, she felt happy and when I said, I will drop her, I could feel she is nervous again.She said her friend will pick up, but her friend didn't even pick up the call.I felt satisfied and smiled inwardly and  said, it's late, let's go.She half heartedly agreed to sit in my car.Little later she fell asleep. her hair strands were coming on her face.I saw a traffic signal and stopped the car, I wanted to put her hair strands behind her ear, my hand almost reached her hair, I heard car honks from behind, because of the green light  , I had to  start the car.I started admiring her features in between ,  I wished this journey, never   come to an end.very soon she woke up, and we  almost reached her house...I cursed myself for driving the car a little fast. when we reached, she looked at me and said, thank you sir, for selecting my design. you made my day , thank you so much..She smiled and left the car.I saw her till she entered inside her house."Aadi control yourself, why are you thinking so much  about her, why are you so attracted to her,stop stop stop", I said to myself.*********Sanjana's POVWhen I reached home, my mom was still awake waiting for me."Mom, you didn't sleep yet"?"I was waiting for you dear""Mom, I have great news  for you", I hugged my mom."What is  it beta ? "Mom, my design has been selected for the " Alankara Jewels" launch. it will be worn by the top model of the country. I am so happy Maa.... I lifted my mom and swirled  her in the air."Hey Sanjana stop, I will fall down, I am feeling dizzy stop stop", my mom shouted.I stopped  ,took her hands in mine and said, "Love you maa, without you I am nothing." My mom kissed me on my forehead and said, " love you too darling, you gave such great news , you don't know how satisfied I feel now, you made me proud dear."I smiled kissed her and asked"Did you eat?""yes Sanjana, I ate, I will go to sleep now, you too go to sleep, you must be tired."I nodded and went inside my room.Soon my mobile started ringing, it was from Nidhi.I took her call and shouted , "are you dead Nidhi, where were you, how many times should I call you  idiot??""sorry  sorry sorry Sanjana, I went out with my parents to attend a wedding, I left my mobile at home, Did something happen? Why did you call me many times?" She enquired in apologetical tone.I told her the series of events that happened today.Now it was her turn to shout ," wow !!!Sanjana, what a wonderful news Yaar!!!, I am so excited to attend the inaugural , you really made me proud Sanjana, so happy for you, yahoooooo!!!""Thank you Nidhi, thank you so much" , I replied."Hey Sanjana, looks like Aditya is not that bad, according to how he behaved with you today". she said slowly"I don't care whether he is good or bad Nidhi, I am his friend's  employee , that's it. I don't want to think about him anymore", I replied with a pain in my heart."Ok ok, leave it, let's meet tomorrow", Nidhi said."Ok, I will meet  you tomorrow, good night Nidhi",I bid her bye and cut the call.I laid on my bed recollecting the time I spent with him today, there were strange emotions in my heart. I thought , how nice it would have been if he respects women and doesn't get involved in one night stands. I sighed , it's not possible Sanjana, he is used to it and you can't bear such a person in your life , so just ignore him.. I took a deep breath and slowly slipped into sleep.************Aditya's POVI  returned home, straight away  went to my room , took a bath and laid down on the bed. I couldn't sleep properly, I just couldn't stop thinking about her, and a smile appeared on my lips when I remembered her... I felt like I was going mad. What kind of strange  feeling is this?I wanted to see her again, I don't have any pic of her, I don't even have her number, so quickly went on to the Facebook and started searching for her with her name.Finally I found her profile,  luckily it was not protected, so I went into her photo gallery and checked all her pics. .She looked very cute . I downloaded one photo into my phone , I stared at it for a while and a smile slid across my lips when I saw her innocent face.
