Pyaar Ka Signal
Chapter 1
"Woh dekh. Woh hai business ka mastermind. Apun ka naya target." Preet said pointing to a ban in a black Armaani business attire. That guy, kya naam bataylela tha Preet...I tried to remember but found out that Preet had told me no name. Khair, jo bhi hai.
"Kaisa hai?" He asks.
"Dekh ne mein toh theek lagta hai. Handsome hai, cute bhi hai. Khaate pete khandaan ka lagre raha hai apun ko."
"Uff! Tera main kya karenga Heer. Tu bhich na, Ek number ke bewakoof ch!"
"Kyun? Aisa kya wrong bolela apun ne?" I asked, ek dum confusedch.
"Nahin nahin. Main hi apna dimaag ka dahi karlela hai. Tu toh ek dum jhakaas hai!" he replied, sarcastically.
"Then what? That is what you asked me. Apun uske baare mein kya sooch le ra ha hai. Jo soocha, wohi bola." I reply.
"I meant, what do you think of his bank balance?"
"Woh bhi theek hai, lekin apun ko karna kya hoye ga?"
I glance back at 'The guy', he was still talking on his cellphone...I stared harder at his phone, but the bushes in which Preet and I were hiding in, didn't help much. They just made it harder for me to see him, but at this moment, all I knew was that he was rich, looked smart...from the back that is, a businessman and he had the phone that I wanted most in the world, an iPhone. As I continued to watch him through the bushes, all I heard was "140 billion dollars...transfer...my account." My jaw dropped open. He hadn't just said 140 Million, had he?
"Psst Preet. What do you think? Kitna bank balance hoyenga?" I asked, my eyes wide open.
"I don't know. Alot maybe?" he replies, wide eyed aswell.
As I continued to stare, wide eyed at my 'Prey', the guy finally turned around, and it was then that I could see his face. Those eyes...those lips...that body. I muttered to myself, in a hushed tone that only my heart and mind could hear. Those eyes, they were...like a chocolate pond in which I wanted to drown in. I sighed, unable to remove my thoughts. Those eyes, they were just...I took a deep breath...unresistable. He was Hot. That figure, that face...Hot. Cute. Charming. Adorable. Mast! The guy smiled as he talked into his iPhone and I was lost in his smile...Uff! This was getting too much and to top that all, he was the "one". I wondered how the heck I would survive planning my task underneath his nose...I was bound to get sidetracked...look, I was getting sidetracked already! 'The guy' moved away from his lavishly blank Mercedes, and walked inside the tall building that looked more like a tower to me. Expressionless, as my face was, Preet snapped his fingers infront of it.
"Heer?" he questioned.
"Huh? Kya?" I was jolted. Had I been that lost?
"Which world were you in?"
I felt embarrassed, my cheeks turned red. "Nahi re. Aage ka plan bol."
"OK. Our plan is that you will first come close to him, no matter what you do. Accident ya kuch bhi. Agar woh help maange, give it. When you come close to him, try getting into his house and then once you are in, then sneak some money out OK? And if that doesn't work out, then our 2nd option is...Kidnap."
"Baki sab toh theek hai lekin pyaar?" I hesitated.
"Yea, love, ishq, mohobbat, pyaar."
"Does that mean that I have to stay in the same house as him?"
"The closer the better."
"And remember, this is not for you, it is for Nihaal. Tujhe yaad hai that apun ko paisa mangta hai. Cum se cum 15 lacs."
A feeling of helplessness ran through my body. I had to do this for Nihaal. I reminded myself.
"What is his name though?" I questioned.
"Prem Juneja, Industrialist Prem Juneja." replied Preet.
