Hi

Beautiful story...

I love the tittle

And I love your version of Swara...

She's an adorable, cute and funny Indian version of Lisbeth

Lovely story...

Part 6:
Sanskar, Hotel Room (9 AM):
San woke up to a warm sun-shine and enjoyed the view of SFO skyline from his 40th floor hotel suite. He freshened up and called his family back in India to inform them he reached SFO safe and sound.
He was stepped out of the elevator just to be greeted by Mindy (Swara's PA) in the hotel lobby.

Mindy: Morning San, had a good sleep. You look dashing, from the way you power-dressed you might seal some deals today.

San was wearing an impeccable navy-pinstripe 3 piece suit with a white shirt and a tie. He simply smiled at her comment.

Mindy: The boys in my office should learn a thing or two from you.
San: (smiles) Thank you for joining me for breakfast.
As they were having breakfast she briefed him on his meetings for the day, where they were located in the city, who he was meeting and some information about them so he could strike a personal bond with them. San was thoroughly impressed how professional and efficient she was with her planning and detailing. Kunal could learn a thing or two from her San thought to himself.

After closing all the meetings for the day Mindy noticed at lunch that San only had a coffee and a bagel. When Mindy questioned San explained her he being a vegetarian and ardent lover of spicy food poses him problems while traveling.

Nasty Gal, HeadQuarters (6PM)
After wrapping up the entire schedule San and Mindy came to Nasty Gal headquarters. It was a tall steel & glass giant building. Mindy explained that Nasty Gal occupied three floors in the building, one per floor assigned to technology, business and design + modeling teams respectively. They went to the technology floor and San was surprised at how lively and vibrant the office was. He saw everyone were in their early 20s & 30s, and were dressed too-cool-for-school.

They entered the room where a handful of people were busy on their laptops including Sw. The room reeked of caffeine, nicotine and red bull, and the carelessly strewn cigarette butts and red bull cans stood as standing proof of this.

Sw got up from her bean bag cursing herself for not noticing that it was already 6'o clock and with a broad smile on her face yelling:
Sw: Sanskaaar, you came!! So good to see you (and gives him a warm tight hug)
San: Sw can we go out this room is stinking and it's making me pukish
Mindy: The stink is not the room it has to be her (points at Sw). She dint shower in the past 4 days. I doubt if she even brushed, did you Swara?
San: ewww

And pushes Sw out of her embrace and Sw feels embarrassed. Some guy in the room shouts, Sw get outta here you stinky pig. And everyone laughs including Sw. San was very thrown off by this office culture. How can a Mr.Nobody just talk back like that to the founder of the company and how can Sw be so cool with it. It was little too much of a culture shock for him.

Sw: Bye losers, and don't call me if anything breaks. You can stop coming to work from tomorrow if something goes wrong (she winks at them)
Everyone bids Swara a cheerful adieu. Some random girl in the room shouts, hey Sw bring that eye-candy to the launch party tomorrow, will ya. San throws a shy yet mischievous look from the corner of his eye. Once they were out of the room and in the corridor Sw asks San about everyone back home. How his journey has been, if he slept well and how his meetings in the day went by.

Sw: Hey I am starving do you want to grab a bite in my office cafeteria. We can go to some fancy place for dinner later in the night. Sebastian will be returning from New York , he went there for some business meeting. We can all have a late dinner.

San gives her a disgusting look.
Sw: What now?
San: When will you take a shower? You are stinking so bad I might throw up on you.
Mindy: Swara just a FYI. He hasn't been eating well at all. He says we Americans serve him cold and bland food. And yes he wants vegetarian.
Sw: Is it, lets do this. Lets go back to my house I will cook for all of us. Even I could use a shower (she smiles sheepishly). Mindy I will drive Ian's car home (Swara calls Sebastian as Ian). You take the Rover with you and run some errands for me. Do the groceries from the Indian store and pick up my laundry. Thanks.

As they were driving back home Sw asks San how RagLak's wedding preparations were going on. How many more meeting were lined up for him and if he was confident about bagging the clients or not. They reached in less than half an hour, he silently made a note of how fast Sw was driving.
San: You drive fast.
Sw: Else it would be an insult to those wheels (she retorts back pointing to the Mercedes Maybach convertible). Ian loves cars and now that he can afford them he fancies it.

San looked disinterested and that shut Swara up.

Swara's House (7 PM)
San was surprised to see the house that they lived in. It was a modest duplex style house in what looked like a posh neighborhood. On the contrary he imagined billionaires lived in a villa or something, especially given Sw track record of real estate possessions.

As Sw opened the door, the foyer led to a cozy living room which had one glass wall with a verandah that opened to a swimming pool. The side adjoining the glass wall was a huge wooden book shelf that ran from ceiling to floor and was filled with books, movie DVDs and vinyls. There was the quintessential fireplace beside that and the corridor followed into a small kitchen + dining room.

Sw asked San to hand his coat over so she could hang it in the closet.
Sw: The coat fit you perfectly.
San: Ya I know. Thanks for this Sw, I would have frozen to death otherwise.

She hung his coat and was removing her hoodie from over her head. By mistake her tee shirt also clung to her hoodie and she peeled both the layers. Her face was stuck in her hoodie when the cold breeze brushed past her exposed skin making her realize the blunder that just happened.

San caught this wardrobe malfunction from the corner of his eye and ideally he would turn away his gaze. I mean that's what a gentleman would do. But he coudn't turn his head away or blink, for what he saw was so mesmerizing to his eyes.

He caught a glimpse of her tattoo, the body of a guitar that ran perfectly along the curves of her waist & stomach. It graciously went across diagonally on her entire torso. He caught up until the fretboard when Sw quickly pulled her sweatshirt down.

Sw face flushed a deep crimson and San turned facing away from her. They both felt evidently embarrassed. Sw broke the awkward silence and excused herself saying she will go and take a shower and asked San to make himself comfortable. She turned the TV on and ran up the stairs in the direction opposite to the glass wall in one quick flight.

San heaved a huge sigh of relief after she left. He suddenly felt hot and breathless. He opened the glass doors and let some fresh chilly breeze in. He saw that "Fault in our Stars" movie was playing on the television. He couldn't care less what was on the television for a completely different picture was looping in his head. "Her tattoo". He felt it was pure art, sensual but not vulgar, intricate yet mysterious. Then he had flashes of her waist, how the strings of the guitar ran up her body... and he started slapping himself to come back to senses.

San was now talking to himself, stop it Sankaar. Kya kar raha hai, get a grip on yourself. This is wrong, so wrong, none of this is supposed to happen. But what was he supposed to do the tattoo ignited some chemical reactions in his body.

"Swara was right, the tattoo is a lingering mystery for him to remember her by"
