A new day broke but Mouni was already dressed and in the kitchen rustling up morning breakfast. Gautam came in search of morning coffee.
He stopped midway
Good morning Mouni you are up early
Have to go to a meeting today my first one
Ah board meeting I have been there and done that
Why are you dressed as well she asked
Board meeting as well
You look dapper Mouni smiled at him
Thank you and you look like a million dollars as well
Thank you
She had put extra effort this morning. She was wearing a white Kurtz pink leggings and matching earrings and bangles.
Her lips matched her leggings but her hair was loose being wet.
You don't need to do so much you will win this account for them. Gautam reassured her and they sat at the dining table to eat.
Mohit was in the shower. He switched it on and let the warm water cascade down his body he then lathered himself and refs witches the water. His mind was occupied with thoughts of Mouni. His grandfather would not stop talking about her. Why was she troubling him so much he opened the door and tied the towel around his waist.
The maid shouted and fainted at the sight of him. The household came to her rescue but unconcerned Mohit shut the door and dressed he then gave her an earful.
Mohit bte calm down his grandfather controlled him and took him down for breakfast. At the table he continued talking about Mouni.
Dadaji can we change the subject
Why what us wrong in talking about One of your staff
Nothing you just seem hooked on Mouni
Have I touched a sore point.
No he barked
Grandfather chuckled Mouni had got to him
Dud you say anything Dadaji
Yes we are late
They left together the drive to the office was silent. Mohit was thinking about Mouni again
Gautam was driving Mouni to the office she was silent as well. And thinking about Mohit. Gautam car entered the gate first followed by Mohit's car.
Mouni got down and gave Gautam a hug.
Mohit stopped his car his knuckles tightened around the steering wheel. Dadaji looked at his grandson and loved what he saw. The first sign of jealousy was showing.
Look there is Mouni with Gautam
You know him
Of course Gautam is Mouni's best friend and a very nice person
Grandfather rushed to greet them
Mouni he called out her name she turned and flashed him her 10000 watt smile
Dadaji how are you
Fine and Gautam good to see you here
Dadaji Mouni has made me her driver
Mohit come here ket me introduce you to Gautam
Mohit strode over and held out his hand the two men shook hands and Gautam bid goodbye
Mouni looked at him Mohit ignored her
Aren't you going to say good morning Mouni or hi Mouni she was angry
Mouni the meeting
Oh yes she ran to the lift and got in with Mohit. No words were exchanged and before ah knew it their floor had come.
Mohit opened the door to his office and slammed it shut
Mouni tried to open hers but the door was jammed
Aparna what is wrong with my door
Mouni the key is stuck inside sorry came a voice
Dadaji my files are in there
Mouni your stuff is in Mohit's office for the time being as is your desk
Dadaji no I can't share the same room as Mohit
Why not
Because we she stopped. How could she share that room his gaze would be upon her all day long. She would long to touch his face and feel his lips upon hers. This would be a disaster
Mouni things will work out well and the locksmith is coming soon
How soon
Next month said dadaji
What
He can't help it he is facing a few problems
Dadaji what is this Mohit's voice bellowed upon them
Mohit you know the reason reasoned his grandfather
Just bear with it
Bear with it. How could he bear being with Mouni. He needed to keep his guard up all the time. If Mouni were here he would let her know how he felt about her. That he wanted to be with her and she kept coming in his dreams every night. He had to stop this but how. He could not disobey his grandfather he would find a way on his own. He had to otherwise things would get out of hand.
The day passed slowly for the two of them both tried their best to avoid each other but soon their hearts and minds were aching for each other's voice but this game continued for a while and dadaji came up with another solution he would send them on a trip a business trip. He smiled this time his grandson had to fall in love as dadaji had already chosen his wife and he loved her with all his heart. The plan was set .
