Making little notes in her notepad, geet left the building and called avni to pick her up. She was waiting for tomorow to come as she was totally pshyced about being able to go on site - or maybe even to meet Mr Maan Singh Khurana again!
The next morning geet was all ready (this time even remembering to do her hair!) and sitting outside the office waiting for siddharth to arrive. Taking out her mobile, geet looked at the time, it was 8.55am. There was still no sign of siddharth, so geet got up and decided to ask somebody whether they knew where he was, the answers were "no". Oh well, geet thought because she knew she wouldnt be the one getting blamed for delaying the trip. Walking across the hall was veer sir, in his hands were the files which geet needed. Handing the files over to her, veer sir looked at his watch, geet could tell he was quite worried. um sir, kyu na hum siddharth sir co phone care? puchlye woh kha hai? listening to geet carefully, veer told her to call him, as veer sir himself had to go out on behalf of siddharth sir for an important meeting. Ji, main abhi phone carti hoon. geet walked over to the reception desk to see pinky working on the computer, hi geet, pniky said without lifting her head to face geet, hi pinky, do you have siddharth sirs mobile number, i wanted to know where her was pinky nodded and told geet to wait one sec. and she did. pinky jotted down the phone number after getting it from the computer and handed geet the paper, you can use that phone if you want, pinky said pointing towards the phone sitting on pinkys desk.
She dialled the number and the phone rang. Hello? hello sir? aap kahaa hai? main yahaa aap ka intizaar kr rhi hoon oh geet! yes im on my way, bas thori see traffic hai, tum 2 minutes vich bahar car park vich wait caro ok? ji sir sabh kuch liya? files, plan etc? yes sir, veer sir ne sabh kuch dhediya, ok, be at the car park and i will pick you up straight away, saves time. ok bye ji bye sir.
After double checking she had everything she needed and ticking off her list on her notepade, geet made eher way towards the car park. Within 40seconds a silver mercedes pulled up next to her. Siddharth greeted her and told her to sit in the car. They drove off. The site was 1/2 hour long, geet sat looking in the files, not forgetting anything veer isr had told her about the project, whilst siddharth was busy with some phone calls. The 30 minutes passed very quickly and easily, geet wasnt feeling any pressure at all, infact she felt totally relaxed.
The car slowly came to a stop. Geet looked up from the file and saw that the had arrived. Siddharth and geet both gout out of the car and whilst siddharth got a comb out of his suit pocket and brushed his hair slightly, geet adjusted her dupatta. Follow me geet ok? and plz dont screw this up. making her mouth into an "O" shape, geet showed siddharth that she was offended I will Try not to sir, geet said in a slightly sarcastic tone, siddharth caught on quickly and appologised to her for being a little rude. Its ok geet repplied in a flat tone.
The weather was very, infact extremely warm. They both walked a little when they were stopped by a voice from infront, geet couldnt see who it was as first of all the sun was blinding her and secondy,siddharth was stood right infront of her. She could hear a few footsteps crunching onto the stoney ground and the voice said, Hi Mr. Kundan, im glad you could make it. geet was looking at som last minute notes in the files, Hello, mr. Khurana, the men were shaking hands, an oppurtunity like this, i wouldnt miss for the world! hmm.. have you came alone? Oh no, ive came with a new member of my company, geet looked up from the file, this is geet, my new assistant, moving slightly to aside, so geet could be seen, siddharth looked at geet, Geet looked at the men standing before her, one was - ofcourse, Maan Singh Khurana, and the other was somebody who looked like his assistant.
Hello, geet, maan said very proffesionally and clearly, extending his hand forward, to greet her, namaste geet said joining her hands sharply. a little gasp could be heard in the background possible becuase geet may have un-intentionally insulted Maan Singh Khurana. But she didnt know this.
Stepping back a little to stand next to siddharth, geet heard him mutter great going. she didn realise why siddharth said this, but looking up at maan sirs face, it didnt have any positive face on. Maan sir lead the way, talking to Siddharth sir, infront whilst geet and possibly maan sirs assistant. um.. namaste, main hoon Adi, maan sir ca assisatant, nice to meet you. geet smiled and said namaste, main geet. aapco shaid maan sir co janti nhi haina? ji aap aise kyu kehere ho? Adi laughed strangely and replied kyuke abtak koi nhi tha jisne maan sir ci baat nhi maani or in your case, maan sir ca haath reject kiya. geet looked slightly confused and asked why because he is like the most scariest person living, whilst the women all fall for him and his "fierce n daring personality"and would never miss the oppertunity to touch him, I see aap pe who "jaadoo" abhi peya nhi? Geet looked at adi shocked. ofcourse not! adi nodded in agreement.
By the time their conversation was finished, geet looked around to see that the four of them had entered a temporary tent which had a big table and some chairs inside, geet guessed this was where they would be doing the talking. Please take a seat, mr. Khurana said confidently as he sat down too. He sat on the long side of the desk, whilst geet stood at a side near siddharth and adi stood next to mr. khurana.
To be continued in part 9....
