👏 , I don't hv enough words to express the Beauty of these lines.
You are making me fall in love with poetry again and when the poetic verses are something which you relate to , this story which we all connect so deeply, even more so.

It's four pm here, and if I am not wrong it will be 5 where Nisha lives. She will come home from work, do some household chores, go on the treadmill, read our comments ( Nisha please red mine about harmandir sahib and visiting great aunt) and then she will write. So I am assuming we will get one at 6 or 630.
I mean just thinking aloud you know.

Hey you guys, thanks for loving the last chapter. No earth shattering "enjoyment" for II, that would be too filmy. She just wants to get away. for the evening I mean

And all the discussions about "corporate India" I think good leadership is a personality trait, bad leaders are not "corporate India's" invention, there were always good and bad ones in history.
MOST just DONT have it

Good people management skill unfortunately is possessed by only 1 out of 100 managers. Its not about "getting the most work done" "or producing the best results"

Unfortunately 99% of managers get it all wrong

Being a "people person" is a rare trait, Bally has it, if we are lucky we will find ONE such supervisor in our lifetime. It has nothing to do with smartness, intellect, intelligence or talent. In fact the managers that possess all the 4 are usually the worst people managers

Its a rare combination of empathy, vision, humaneness, thoughtfulness, wisdom and kindness.
Finding it all in one person that has direct reports is next to impossible

No Steve Jobs or Jeff Bezos or Carly Fiorina DONT have it.
Unfortunately most of us that "report" to somebody are made to believe that "This is how it is in Corporate India"

THATS BS
It NEED NOT BE

I guess what we see around in India today is more of My way the only way and anything to push and shove and reach the top...either they are aggressive and pushy


or whine and rant about lack of opportunities but dont take enough risks or initiative to contribute...when one is trying to prove ones worth nurturing others becomes insignificant empathy, vision, humaneness, thoughtfulness, wisdom and kindness. are not given adequate importance in India...we nourish followers not thinkers and leaders...my 2 cent on the matter

Unlikely alliance

She got to the hotel in a half hour, she texted Ranjan "Aaj driver nahi tha so FYI I took a bus"

HE CALLED HER

"Kyon bus li betaji?"

"Oh so u want to talk now?" she asked

"Kidhar ho aap?"

"U dont even want to talk to me so it shouldnt matter" she informed

"Galt kaam kiya na aapne" he scolded

She was deflated "I know" she nodded

"Koi baat hui to ghar par badon ko kehna chahiye nahi?" he asked

"Jee" she nodded

"Ghar par sabse bada kaun hai?"

"Bada ya lamba?" she asked

"Arey us ki baat nahi kar raha main... nalayak" he scolded his son fondly

"Oh bada, phir to aap" she smiled

"Kidhar ho abhi?" he asked

"On my way to the hotel" she muttered

"Hotel is almost out of town, aapko jaankari hai kone si bus leni hai?" he asked

"I was lying... the driver was here" she said softly

"Beta Vandita ki shaql aaj bahut udaas thi" he informed

"She is not talking with me Dad" she opened up honestly

"Kisi ne koi baat kahi kya?" he asked

"Umm no" she shook her head

"Bansal se baat karoon main?"

"OH NO!! NO NO... NO" she shouted

The driver looked through the rear view mirror

"Tey pher?" he asked

"Its nothing actually" she said

"To be so upset so as to not attend a baby's birth?" he asked shocked

She was quiet

" Aapko sabki hamesha itni fiqr rehti hai aur AAPNE, Vandata ko dukhi kiya?" he asked

"Umm woh"

"Meri baat suno, bilqul argue mat karo... Amma vi dukhi, sab pareshan the betaji" he informed

"amma bhi? Amma ne text kiya" she said

"Batao Vandita, will she have another baby?" he asked

"Probably not" she whispered

"Baldie baldie kar rahe the aap... aaj to ekdum, Iyer dhoti pehni hui thi, usne poore time jaga hua tha... aankhen bilqul aapnki tarah... bade bade" he smiled

"He talks like me to Akka says... screams I mean" II laughed

"Dhuandaar hai uski awaaz" Ranjan laughed

"I love him a lot Dad" she cried

"I know puttarjee" he smiled

"It has to be office or home or both" he said aloud

ITS BOTH, ITS MAINLY HOME
BUT I CANT TELL YOU
I AM SORRY
I CANNOT LET BALA ATHIM THINK ANY WORSE OF ME THAN HE ALREADY IS

"Aap shaam ko bhi ja rahe ho?" she asked

"No beta I am sorry I cant... I have to work... woh Gurgaon workshop ke jhamele hain" he explained

"Transpro jhamela?" she asked hesitantly

"na jee na." he smiled warmly

"I am sorry I didnt attend" she apologized to the person it was easiest to apologize

"Amma Appa, Vandu, Bala, Baldie badi saari apologies baaqi hain puttar" he reminded

"Jee Dad" she nodded politely

"Lautne ka kab hai iraada?"

"i dont know" she said sadly

"pej doon tere miya ko waaps? he asked in a thick Punjabi accent

"NAHI" she said ferevntly

"Phir lauto jaldi" he warned

"Jee" she nodded

The driver pulled in, the the bearded doorman smiled, opening the door
She walked to the lobby, as the lady waved to her

"U had a visitor" she said

"Really?" "Who?"

"It was a woman" she said

"A WOMAN?"

AYYO!!! RITU?
REALLY?
YA
LIKE THATS THE LAST PERSON I WANT TO MEET TONIGHT
I AM GOING TO BE RUDE AND BLUNT
I GAVE UP BALDIE'S NAMING CEREMONY TO DO HER GODDAMN DEPLOYMENT
I DONT WANT ANY BHASHANS ON WHATS HAPPENING IN LAJPAT NAGAR AND UTTAM NAGAR
JESUS!!!


"did she say a name?" II asked

"Umm... my colleague was here... I am sorry I dont have it written down" she sounded ashamed

"Nevermind" II said
She lingered on the lobby as her mind raced... wondering WHERE could she go

"Are there any night tours?" she asked politely

"No Maam the last bus leaves at 6 PM, its not ours, its ITDC so they just pick up... we can sign u up for the AM tour?" she offered

"I have a job" II chuckled

"Sorry... we can do weekends, if u want" she offered

"Umm... I am going to keep u posted" II smiled

"I thought u were on ur honeymoon the night u checked in" the gal smiled

"Oh THESE?" II felt her choora

She nodded

"well I married a Punjabi man, so I have decided to wear em until the 20th anniversary" II laughed

"U are not a Punjabi?"

"Umm no... an Iyer... umm... a Tamilian" she explained

She had been asked this atleast 200 times in the last three weeks in Punjab

Unlikely alliance...II began talking about how it all happened
There was no guest waiting so the girl enjoyed listening... when a guest appeared II took leave reluctantly

She pressed the elevator button, and the woman from the lobby tapped on her shoulder

"Oh! ur visitor is right there" she pinted to the high back chairs by the bar

AYYYO!!!
YOU COULD HAVE ESCAPED
LIKE VADIVEL(A Tamil cinema comedian)
NO YOU HAD TO TELL HER EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR COURTSHIP
WHETHER THERE WAS CURRY LEAVES IN THE SAMBAR
IF THE DUDE KISSED YOU BEFORE OR AFTER BARAAT ARRIVAL
IF KAMAKSHI ATHAI FORGOT HER HEARING AID
AND HOW YOU CONSUMMATED TWO HOURS AFTER MUHURTAM

NIIICEE, GO ON...

GENIUS!!!

II turned reluctantly walking towards the bar.

She cleared her throat and said Hi!" inaudibly first and then loudly

ARGHHH!!!!!

YOU ARE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE
I COULD VERY WELL KILL YOU RIGHT NOW
BUT I WONT BECAUSE ITS BEEN WHAT... SAT NOON, SUN NOON, MON NOON, TUESDAY NOON
THREE WHOLE DAYS AND 6 HOURS SINCE I MADE LOVE
SHE COUNTED

He stood up, wearing khakhi cargos and a navy check shirt, with a duffel bag on the side, he pulled his left ear plug out
She leaped and hugged him
"Rakshasan" she cursed multiple times... crushing his ribs



Oldish Sikh couples watched and grinned

"Fauj mein hai puttar?" one oldie asked R&B, Pausing to ogle at a young couple hugging shamelessly in the lobby

"AYYYO!!!
NO...
FEELS LIKE IT.. BUT
HE IS NOT IN THE FAUJ
HE LIVES OVERSEAS
AND TRICKS ME INTO BELIEVING A WOMAN IS HERE TO SEE ME
NO, HES NOT IN THE FAUJ
GO AWAY UNCLEJEE
I HAVE TO MAKE LOVE FIRST AND KILL HIM NEXT


R&B shook his head, letting her crush him

OR
He could leave baldie's ceremony after lunch, go home pack a duffel bag, and head to the airport by 3 PM
He could take Jet Airways from Delhi at 5:10 PM and get to Amritsar at 6:15 PM
And get to the hotel by 7 PM

Google shows Jet & Spicejet😛
