Dog & Cat food
Monday was quite the chaos, her alarm went off at 7 she went right back to sleep waking at 7:48 😲when she heard the driver pull the Ferrari out to get Ranjan's car out
She woke with a start, she had a 9 AM, she had missed it!! She ran to the bathroom with the sheet wrapped around her... the balcony door was open... no sign of Rakshasan anywhere
She showered, got out as fast as she can braided her hair wore a pant suit so she neednt look to accesorize... she wore a pearl earring, screwing it on, she walked by to the 2nd floor office
The glass doors were shut and he was on the phone,😡😲
"Why didnt u wake me?" she demanded at 8:30 ish...
He hit mute "Did u want me to?" he asked
"U just as much as LAY A FINGER ON ME TONITE,"she warned waving a finger angrily
He nodded politely, she picked up a cushion, from the sofa adjacent to the glass door and flung it clear across, tipping his coffee over
He moved his legs as it dripped "Its a MONDAY" she alomost cried distressed
He said something in French and hung up
She had left the room, storming down... to the kitchen two guys stood by the back yard door debating which area to move the furniture before they began washing the patio
They heard her and smiled politely
"Main coffee bana loon please?" she asked
"Main bana deta hoon" Mahavir asked
"Arey nahi thanks... aap kariye jo kar rahe the" (please carry on your work)
"There is bacon, poha, egg bhurji, oatmeal and hash browns and toast she was told, her lunch bag/case was packed and ready to go
She took a bowl of poha poured some chutney on it... poured her coffee out of the mug into the steel tumbler, made it real hot
R&B walked in :Hey do u need a ride?
She didnt look at him the help wondered...
R&B: meri coffee office mein gir gayi, ek towel denge please?
Santram another help scrambled up
She picked up her lunch, trying to make small talk with Minion, eating as fast as she could, carrying her coffee with her
"Lunch mein kya hai bhayya? "
"Shimla mirch paneer, kal raat ki aloo gobi, aapne kaha" he smiled she nodded
"Aur roti, aur gulab jamun... Woh aapke Billi sahab, hain kya naam hai?"
II giggled "Haan thanks"
Minion had packed some gulab jamuns for Bally...
R&B waited by the door...
"Meri car ki keys aapko maloom hai?" II asked
"Nahi Bhabhiji, woh Dhyan ji ko pata hoga, woh to sir ko lekar chaley gaye aap text kar lo"
"I did he wont answer, II lets go" R&B ordered
I am taking a cab" she hissed
"I will find u one" he walked with her Sanram and Minion stared amused at the young couple fight all the way to the drive way
"If this is some pretext to get laid tonight, u are better off inhaling meth" II spat
"They smoke it actually" he muttered🤣
She stopped turned glared at him, and ... she went to the lounge picked up her laptop bag and purse from the French vintage style day bed, the lounge was totally
French Louis the XV style, with silk upholstered arm chairs and end tables every few feet along the wall, in gold and copper or silver...
the original art on the wall all metallic framed, faux or real she didnt know
Including the Monet...
continued walking to the entry way, Ranjan had built her a shoe shelf within the wall, that could hold atleast 25 pairs, the rest she could put away upstairs
She wore her black pumps, she was almost 5'11" now
He walked out and started the Ferrari now parked outside the gate, she asked the guards if they knew where her keys were, they said "Sorry Maam"
She reluctantly, slid her seat forward and threw her stuff in the back, and sat down
He waited for her to wear her belt, and gassed it, like he was yelling at her
He got her to work after 9:20... she spoke to Amma in the meanwhile the apptt was at 11 AM
She asked about Periappa, and reminded her to take the afternoon off to go look at cars
Amma neither agreed or disagreed...
After she hung up... "Will u go meet Periappa?" she asked, sipping her steel tumbler coffee😳
He looked at her while they waited in traffic "Tonite?" he asked
"Umm I want to go... I mean I am going tonite... but together on Sunday?" she corrected herself
"What time will you get home tonite?" he asked, nodding for the Sunday request
"After u sleep" she said
He burst out laughing... as she slowly relaxed leaning on the back rest...
to watch him laugh, his silky straight hair curling at the end bobbed... like he always needed a hair cut
~~~~~~~~~~~
He dropped her off by the wide open front door of the gleaming glass building...
She got off, he hit a key so the seat slid forward, she picked up her stuff...
"I am going to my tailor first. I need my car." she muttered
He nodded...
"ermmm...are u going home?" she asked
"No" he half smiled
She walked away without looking back, the long braid perfectly sewn like it was almost fake... her clear as porcelein skin devoid of any make up
Subbu waited for the elevator, there were 100s waiting, it was "elevator rush hour"
"Hi! Ishita" he said almost slamming into her, in curiosity
"Hi!" she said half attentively
She made sure her shirt was fully buttoned, placed a hand on her chest...
"Where is R&B?" he asked
"Umm around here" she said
"Amma Appa epdi irukka?" he asked
REALLY? NOW? WISH U HAD ASKED THIS Q WHEN U DUMPED ME
SHAMELESS DOG!!!
"Fine" she nodded cursorily
"Neeraja's ceremony is in three weeks, Amma wanted to invite" he dragged
"Oh!" she said doubtfully
R&B showed up... she saw him walk up to her in navy cargos and a grey BR tee... flip flops,
he had SHAVED THIS MORNING??
NIICE I BET MRS SAGAR WILL LOVE IT
She glared...
"5th day" he said rubbing his smooth jaw/chin answering her query
She smiled humorlessly
He handed her her zippered lunch case "U forgot the cat food" he said
She smiled, unable to sulk... Minion's billi was overheard...
"Hi! Mr Bhalla" Subbu said
"Hey Subbu" R&B nodded "R&B is fine " smiling
"Have u started coming in?" "Everyday?" Subbu enquired
"Umm... not really" he said
A elevator stopped... over 15 entered including II, as she walked towards it she turned to look at R&B...This time she looked😃... like saying "Have a good one" to her own...😳
R&B shifted from foot to foot casually, ack the look with a half smile... didnt go unnoticed by Subbu
