All the main roads of the city were closed n there was police everywhere around the city... making sure not to touch any major roads he drove through the smaller lines... making his route longer than usual. ..
Distracting himself from the thoughts of his employer he took another turn n thought of his mother... she was behaving oddly silent n was getting over emotional at nights when he was home back from work. .. doctor did suggest that she must take it easy n not stress herself but there's a constant worry written on her forehead these days...
With his exams just finished he did have few days free for himself... so there was time he did something constructive. .. would it be good if he asked sir if he could assist or help him in his work... it would really be a good learning experience. ..
Parking the car in the parking lot he made his way towards the office to let her know the car was waiting downstairs. .. The building was buzzing with activity but seems like everyone is trying to find a transport which would take them back home. ..
He dropped a msg about the car in the reception n stepped out of the office when he heard the receptionist rushing towards him almost running n about to fall... he waited for her to stable her self n catch her breath. .. when he raised his brow to question she almost smiled in embarrassment... on learning that mam asked him to wait in the office itself as she would join just in a while he took a deep breath n passed the lady in front of him a polite smile n got seated on the couches nearby
Looking around he found a well maintained office which was smaller in space but very elegant n completely designed in glass... maybe mam was fond of glass he concluded. .. while he was still observing the interiors he found the one of the door opening n geet walking out talking to someone on phone. .. n the other hand holding a bunch of papers n her bag..
He quickly stepped forward to help her carry things for her, while she finishes her call
Her eyes went round n big while he pulled out things from her n walked ahead... but this time he was prepared she was Geet madem for him n he was her driver!!
***************
Babaji did u see he even carried my hand bag!
Chi geet what will everyone think of u... that u will let him carry ur bags too... cutting the call she walked out hurriedly to stop him before he reaches the elevator n anyone notice him
She spotted him just outside the office n tried to pull out her bag without his notice... which in turn got pulled so hard that she lost her balance n grabbed his arm for support...
He glared at her for being so clumsy while she bent her head n tried to adjust her heels...
Tucking her hair behind her ears she tried to look at him from the corner of her eyes.. she noticed him giving a disapproving look at her high heels!!
She pouted all the while complaining to her babaji about making such a bad impression... He handed her bag to her while she took a breath of relief... Pulling out her sun glasses she covered her eyes n draped the dupatta around her head before the elevator opened
When he stepped in n turned he was shocked for a quick moment later composed n stepped aside giving her space. ..
They were alone in the elevator so she thought she could atleast try to break the silence. .
Wo... this... to avoid unnecessary attention. ..
He just nodded n walked out to pull the car to the entrance while she was trying to keep phase with him...
Babaji why does he have to walk so fast...
Before she could reach the parking lot she heard the horn of her car from the entrance... oh he didn't want her to walk to the parking lot... kitne caring n Sweet hai na babaji!
She promptly placed her belongings in the back seat which he held open n walked around to the front seat all shying. ..
Dad was saying about the roads being blocked how did you manage to come. ..
he seemed to be distracted by something before he answered me..
I know this city quite well... so managed... don't worry will be home safe n sound...
Hmmm
How is your mom doing??
Hmm???
Wo I've met her at Amritsar remember... dad said she wasn't well so
She's better thanks
The rest of the drive went in silence. .. while he tried to concentrate on road having such a beautiful actresses sitting next to him she was busy managing her hair!
Reaching her home she smiled at him n thanked him... while he brushed off saying it was his duty... Blushing at his words she made her way inside when her mobile beeped with a msg..
Anjali call back as u get free...😊
Frowning at the msg she thought to call him back after getting freshn up but found her self ringing him...
Hello...
Anjali.. are u busy??
Ummm... actually is it important are u fine??
Yes every thing is fine... y
Nothing will call u back in a while then...
Ok bye...
Running to her balcony she saw him walking in to her house... oh maybe to meet dad n mom or for a tea... she didn't want that opportunity to slip.. maybe she would be able to meet him before he leaves... freshening herself she tied her hair in a quick pony n walked down to the kitchen... all the while grinning n checking her over exited heart!!

Fear is the last thing in my world
Journey with me is not all flowers. ..
she has to have the courage n I bet there's no one born to burn in ashs with me...
Amongst the flames that emerged behind hin he walked out dusting his jeans waring his goggles with a winning smirk on his face...
Arjun but...
Giving his friend a look he walked towards his bike give a last glance at the smoke that left behind
To be continued. ..
