Chapter – 16
Vathsala was delighted and enthusiastic about the day’s work
for two reasons , Firstly, it was a big project for them , it meant a lot to
their organization , secondly Akash works for the same company , and it’s time
for her to show what he has missed in
his life and want to see him repent for
what he has done ! but she was totally confused as of why she is so much
interested in this project and caring more on her looks , he was the person who
left her , and it’s all over in the past , she is not interested in him anymore
, but why is she doing all this ?
She was all set and ready to leave, and for the one last
time she checked herself in the mirror, she tied a golden yellow georgette
saree with a perfect maroon color designer blouse and left her hair loose with
small studded ear rings which goes along with the saree, it was simple yet elegant!!
She was leaving to office, when her brother called out to
her
“Hey sis, your gorgeous today!! What’s up baby?” he asked
her teasingly, she gave him a broad smile and was about to start her vehicle
when her brother stopped her and told
“You look so happy, it’s been so many days that I have seen
you smiling like this” and tapping her on the shoulder, he continued “I want
you to be like this sis, Always!! Forever!!”
Saying this he left the place
She reached their office and upon checking herself in the mirror,
she went inside told about her and was waiting at the reception.
Akash was the person who was assigned to take care and tell
her about the company and what exactly they needed from them, Akash received a
call from reception that Vathsala has arrived, and he has been preparing
himself to be strong and not to be a mousy in front of her. After so much of
courage, he finally went to receive her, she saw her seated in the reception,
he was dumbfounded on seeing her, and he was staring at her she was
exceptionally beautiful, the first word that came to him was Magnificence!! She
was scrolling through a magazine deeply engrossed in an article, the lushness,
dignity in her is so appealing that every person passing by was staring at her,
Akash was thinking ‘She changed a lot, she is not beautiful but the elegance in
her is what transferred her into a beauty .Why did I leave her?’ and was
observing every gesture of hers with awestruck eyes.
Vathsala became restless and was searching for someone to
call her, as she was searching her eyes fell on Akash, with a revealed
expression, she walked towards him.
“Hey hi” she told him smiling
“Hi”
“Can you please guide me to the person who helps me here,
I’ve been waiting for that person, but the person didn’t turn up yet”
“Hey it’s me, who needs to help you here around, Sorry for
the delay, was struck up in small work”
“Oh that’s great!’ she said with a twinkle in her eye
“Come, let’s move” he said gesturing with his hand.
He took her into his boss’s cabin, he could see all his colleagues
staring at the new girl, his blood was boiling inside, but there is nothing he
could do.
“Vathsala, he is Rahul, Head of this branch”
“Rahul, she is Vathsala, the one who is going to handle the
event on Women’s day”
Rahul extended his hand towards Vathsala and said “Nice to
meet you”
Akash was eyeing everything with sober-mindedness’, he could
sense that Rahul has started liking this girl at the first instance and was
trying to gain her attention, Akash was fuming inside.
“Akash you can leave, I will guide her through everything”
told Rahul
“Hey but you asked me to do that, right?” asked a surprised
Akash , if he was in his previous mind set , he would have left everything to
Rahul , but now at any cost he was not in a position to leave her , some
feeling towards her is pulling him towards her.
“Yeah, but I’m free today, I will help her, you carry on
with your work” told Rahul, trying to convince Akash
“No probs Rahul, even I’m free, I will do” told Akash firmly
Rahul understood that Akash was not going to give away, so
he let him in.
“Ok, you guys carry on, Will catch you sometime later” he
said to both of them and they left his cabin.
As they left the place, she saw his face and understood that
he was angry for some reason, she looked him into the eye, for a moment there
eyes met and left.
“So why are you angry?” asked Vathsala
“How do you know that?” asked Akash who was taken aback at
the sudden question
She pointed towards his eyes , “Those told that you are
angry” after that no one spoke a word , both of them are thinking about their
first meet , going back and reminding each and every aspect of it again and
again , reliving the moment in their thoughts !!!
