chapter 17

The Boss sat on the sofa in Nishith's chamber and was lost in deep thoughts. His tiring eyes and dull face depicted the level of his distress. " Do you remember one of our most important clients Madam Urvashi?" , The Boss asked looking up with tension as his fingers traced the wrinkles formed on his forehead ." Yeah... I remember her very clearly. She is very perfect in her deal and She is very true to her words. Nowadays honest people like her are hard to find. Anyways, what happened? Did she change her decision? " , Nishith asked as he tried to estimate the actual matter." Actually, I was not in town. My phone went dead. She tried to contact you. Unfortunately she couldn't get through. It was out of reach. Then madam ended up calling the office. That new boy in our office, Rahul ... That idiot answered her call. She enquired about our Chennai project. And guess what , he gave her all the wrong information. And now we are crooks for her. Buddy, you know how important this project is for us. We will be ruined. She is one of the biggest investors . And if she withdraws the deal , then our company will collapse and so does our economy. Just do something Nishith. You can only stop this demolition. " , The Boss ends in a heavy voice. Still he had a lot of hope and he was optimistic about the deal." Ohh I see. Don't worry boss. I will try my best. " , Nishith consoles him." No ... No... No tries Nishith. Just do it buddy. Just do it. Otherwise this project will go from our hands. You have to do it. " , The Boss emphasizes his words and he meant it. He had a lot of faith in Nishith and his talent. " Alright boss. Don't worry. I will talk to Madam Urvashi Asap and I will rectify the mistakes. " , Nishith says in a calm voice . The Boss leaves .At the next moment, Nishith dials up to Madam Urvashi to apologize to her on behalf of their office for the errors that are done. " Hello Ma'am. Good afternoon. Hope you are doing well. Actually ma'am I am very sorry for the inconvenience that you faced yesterday. Rahul is new to our office and he is just a freshman. So the errors done by him can be accepted. But I assure you that I will rectify the errors made by him. We want your kind consideration ma'am. " , Nishith ends on a pleading note. He talked in a very decent way so that Madam Urvashi won't change her decision." Ohh I see ! So this blunder was made by Mr. Rahul. Well, Mr . Nishith ... Rewrite the entire project report and investment figures by tomorrow and give it to me. Then I will think about it. " , Madam Urvashi uttered in a firm voice." Okay... Ma'am . " , Nishith replied back." For me trust is very important . Whether it is a personal relationship or professional. Remember one thing. Trust is very important for me. " , Madam Urvashi ends." Yes ma'am. You are absolutely right. We can meet for lunch tomorrow and I can get you all the details. " , Nishith suggested her about his idea." I don't do lunch Nishith. " , She replied." Then, Can we meet for dinner? " , Nishith asked her." Nishith, Can I ask you something? " , She asked." Sure ma'am . You can ask anything freely. " , Nishith ended." Are you married, Nishith? " , She asked in a straight forward way." Yes ma'am. I am married. " , Nishith replied." And does your wife cook ? " , She enquired in a deep voice." Of course ma'am , she does. " , Nishith replied bit uncomfortably." So... Tomorrow at your place... For breakfast...at 8 AM. " , She ends." But ma'am.... " , Nishith wanted to deny but then he remembers the words of his boss that kept ringing in his ears." Any problem? Mr. Nishith... " , She asked again as Nishith stopped in between his words." No ma'am , no problem. For sure ma'am . We will meet tomorrow at my place for breakfast at 8 AM . I will text you the address. " , Nishith ends silently.The call hungs up.The next day..." Samaira... Where are you? Listen " , Nishith calls out to Samaira.Samaira stood before the mirror getting ready for office and she was trying to put her earrings. " Arey... I forgot to tell you last night. I am sorry. A very important client Madam Urvashi is coming to our place for breakfast . " , Nishith says while putting the files in his bag.Samaira stood silently. She didn't respond to his words." Samaira... I am saying my very important client Madam Urvashi is coming to our place for breakfast. So can we please postpone this carrying on through the lobby thing for today ? " , Nishith tries to hold back his irritation and talked in a calm voice.Samaira ignores his statement again and checks her attire through the mirror while arranging her hair.Ignorance hurts a lot. This evokes discomfort and a feeling of being left out alone . This triggers real emotional agony. This had happened in case of Samaira and Nishith. Inspite of staying together under one roof , they had moved away from each other very far. The distance created in between their hearts was left unrepaired. This led to immense pain and growing silence of the two souls that tore them apart.To be continued in next part.Stay tuned.
