Paakh Proposal
Well that enquiry never came
Suvi slept like a log waking to Tai almost shoving her off the bed irritated that Suvi's alarm was bothering her
It was 7:07 AM
School started next week and sometime this week April 17-23 she had promised to stop by to pick up text books
She wanted to go before work but Monday was gone already
She showered prayed and woke Aadhya with her glass of milk, Aadhya had a mermaid toothbrush, she woke without a whimper
She sat drinking milk from her Ariel mug
Tai sat on the living room floor pretending to meditate
"Dushta glemaras" "Wicked witch" Suvi said under her breath
As she packed Aadhya's play school lunch, some rice and non spicy fish she had hid from Tai, and a bunch of snack
Adhya started acting up when it was time to shower, Suvi dragged her, kicking and screaming
Tai left her zen and came in to gawk
Aadhya was ashamed, she had no idea how much her Aai hated Tai
But something told the lil angel that Tai was trouble, she immediately clammed up and took that shower
And dressed up and Suvi combed her hair first then Aadhya's tying hers in a high ponytail again, choosing a yellow ikat kurta and a orange chudidar
It was too hot for pants
The morning sun burned like hot coals, she found her rickshaw guy, dropped Aadhya off And took a Metro from Preet Vihar station
She was at work just after 9 she walked to her desk, set up her laptop and went to get coffee, from the Nescafe vending machine in the break room
She texted the Apeejay student advisor to check if she can come in this evening
"Come before 4 please" she said polite-bluntly
Suvi walked to her desk and drank her coffee wondering how she can juggle the client
meetings of today, there was one for a personal investment advisory firm, there was one for a leading food company with ready to eat school lunches, and one from a natural scents company.
The third one was with Neel, she walked over to Payal's desk, she found Neel coming in to work carrying his leather laptop bag, wearing navy trousers and a pink cotton shirt and navy loafers
He was quite surprised to see her...
"Ek proposal hai jis se aap bhi khush ho jaaogey" she said trying to be funny
Gomez walked by "Chal 9:30 aa chuka hai, neta ka kaam hai lets act busy" he laughed
Neel laughed
He turned to Suvi
"Kya proposal hai?" he asked
Gomez stared at Suvi curiously
"Mujhe Aadhya ke books (he heard boooks) lene jaana hai Apeejay, Paakh (scents company) ki meeting kal move kar lein?" she asked
"Isme mera kya fayda hai?" he asked smiling gently
"Aap Nihar ke books le aana" she said cockily
He smiled fully
"Chal boss" Gomez nagged
He didnt tell her immediately he had taken care of Nihar's uniform measurements at the authorized uniform vendors at the Great India Mall
and bought his books all of it yesterday...
He nodded and went to his political campaign meeting in the fancy conf room.
Around Noon when he stepped out he realized he hadnt agreed to move the meeting
He walked over to her office, she wasnt in it
There were pictures of Aadhya on her desk, none of hers
A Lakme lotion, a small Ganpati sat in a far corner, a lil dusty
A dupatta or scarf was draped on teh back of her chair
Coffee mug, a water bottle and no lunch box
"We can move the meeting" he texted and waited inside her closed doors
Stared out the windows looking out
"Thank u" she said
"No fish for lunch today?" he asked
She didnt get it at first, then she realized he must be in her office
"Barobar khaya sabne" she declared with pride
And when he returned to his office she asked him a Q 13.5 hours after he first expected it😳
"What did u eat for dinner?"
"Jeera rice" he said
