Christmas Tree & Hazelnut Creamer
Part 60
She walked back wearily to her desk after the fight at 6:45 that evening
Baldev wanted to talk.😲
WHAT was that Iyer? he asked worried😭
WAS I WRONG?" she hissed😡
Chal lets go to a conf room, he quickly hustled her into one...😃
Banda bada theda hai, usko gussa bahut aata hai, toone kyon panga liya yaar? U shud have said workshop uninstall karte hain... U didnt let Ashwini talk😭
II REALIZED she was at fault for flying off the handle like that, but Baldev DID not know, what R&B had been upto😈
The smug bas***d... the way he had been tormenting her for weeks now...
like an invisible enemy... now sending things to Akka's house was the limit.
She COULD NOT tell him what was going on between him and her outside of work😳
Her heart skipped a beat, if there was anyway Baldev was going to figure that out II WAS SCREWED😲
"Do u realize tu client par chillayi?"😲😭
He handed her water, her face was flushed, and eyes BIG-GER...
"I know... I am sorry... do u think Ashwini will say something to More?😭 More was the IT Projects Group Head
"Arey nahi yaar she wont... but lets hope Ranjan Bansal ko call na kar de"
"Tujhe ITNA gusaa kis baat par aaya Iyer?"😃
"Bally tu soch MAHEENA ho gaya, NOTHING is moving... sab points wahin ke wahin atke hue hain...
koi training lena nahi chahta... hum fix karte hain inko woh patch memory sucker lagta hai,
can u imagine inke 20 showrooms aur 10 workshops ya jo bhi hai KAB DELIVER KARENGE PROJECT? 😭😡
WHAT IS WRONG to deploy parallely yaar, workshop system is NOT BUGGY EVEN"
II was in tears, she was not ashamed to cry in front of Bally
"Iyer tch tch... please yaar... stop it... chhod, waise mujhe khushi hai toone us bandey ko sunaya" he whispered😉
HAI NA WOH SMUG? Dont u agree? Ha? Ha?" she begged😃
"Ranjan damage control karega, pakka, waise uski apne bete se nahi banti shaayad.. I WOULD BE REALLY SURPRISED IF HE TALKS TO BANSAL
Tera rating main already likh chuka hoon, I dont want to spend another 10 hours rewriting it" he winked cutely reassuring😳😃
II snorted, and rubbed her nose... her face pink and sore..."Thanks" she muttered...
"I shud have stayed with Rajouri Garden, I shudnt have taken this on... the guy is nothing but a jerk"😡
"Handsome hai yaar banda... shave nahi karta... but hai handsome"😉
"U must be smoking pot" she said stiffly😡
"Pot par to mujhe ZYAADA handsome lagega"🤣
She shut her eyes as she imagined his smirking eyes as he moved over her on Sam's couch...grinning at her uninhibited arousal.. and moans
"I am going to give myself another month, agar woh nahi gaya... woh kidhar jaayega, baap ki company hai... useless... I will apply for lateral Bally"😭
"Zyaada mat soch, abhi ghar ja, ride doon? Kisi bechaare paidal chalne waale ka kaand kar degi nahi to" he laughed🤣
If u promise to bring the man I fought with in front of my car, then I will go now" irate
"Shhh!! Shhh!! Its OK... he was right.. toone socha, usne tujhe bola, u never told me... I would have never approved for the workshop warna"
"Woh to bahut kuch kehta hai, ab har baat follow karenge to ho gaya"
Achhhaaa? KYA KYA KEHTA HAI?"Baldev winked
"Oh! II, u turn me on... we need to get away for the weekend... I am not going to let you get out of the room, lets have mind blowing sex"
II said patting her face with tissue, as she giggled😃😳
Baldev laughed out loud...
Sense of humor badhiya hai, bus isko banaake rakh... Chill Iyer" Baldev patted her shoulders and took off to take a call👏
They met in the elevator at 8 ish that night, she deliberately walked to the farthest corner... he had his ear buds on, and was chewing gum,
he didnt even give her a second glance or so she thought, but he noticed her red face and puffy eyes...
he was the first one to get off, he just walked towards his car, she towards hers...
This will be their first of many acts of the cold war...
The following day, she would wait at the Daily Perk for her coffee, he would be there at the same time, the gal would say,
"I dont have hazelnut creamer, since u both want it, who should I give it to?"
Cancel my order please" she said and walked out...
He would be waiting for the elevator at 5th, she rode up one afternoon, and held the door open for him, he punched the UP arrow forcing the doors to shut
She cursed him whenever she saw him "He has NO FEELINGS... he publicly shouted at me...
destroying my reputation, ORU APOLOGY VARADA PAARU😡, not one apology is coming, Rakshasan" "Him and his GODDAMN inscrutable expression"😡
"I curse the day when I saw him first"😭
She cried one more time at home two days later, and then stopped...crying altogether...
~~~~~
"Can u come by to Munirka kanna?" Akka had asked
II's stomach began to churn...
She recalled the conversation about the purse and how she had lied blatantly yet again...
EDUKKU? For what?" she asked softly
"is everything OK?" "WHY IS HE SENDING YOU MONEY?" Akka was really worried..
"Akka Baldev is calling, let me call u back" she lied and hung up YET AGAIN
II didn't know to laugh or to cry.. Akka was thinking the worst
Ayyyo HE WONT TAKE WHAT I OWE HIM... LEAVE ME ALONE.. PADUTHARAN...Rakshasan
I am at my wits end here...
On a self confident and self assurance scale of 1-10 if II was 8 or 9, the day she entered Excelsior the first time... she was at 3 or a 4 NOW
it has taken a SEVERE beating in the last month... she has consistently lied the last month, from using Babita Singh, to telling Appa she got a ride from a coworker to NOT telling him she went to check on him that rainy night... to telling them she was cold that's why she was wearing her Old Navy hoodie, when she entered the house past 11...
She was eating less, worrying more, just plain preoccupied and nervous...
He had introduced her to an extremely DANGEROUS RECKLESS PASSIONATE side of her personality... this II she did NOT know... it was almost like this II WAS THE REAL II
The original, focused, ambitious, charming, determined II seemed tepid and lukewarm compared to this one...
This one was alive in every pore of her being, physically and emotionally
Its like he pushed a button and the Christmas tree lit up, every limb glowing in multi color glory, every branch bearing an ornament of his erotic acts
She loved to dress up, she loved to party, she was active and chirpy... but now she was was on some mood altering drug... like she took one month's worth of Prozac all in one day
The II October and before WOULD NEVER... REPEAT NEVER willingly walk into trouble... never willingly court danger..now she was walking with a lit match, searching for dynamite... it didn't matter to her😲😭
She had an insatiable urge to WIN... insatiable urge to make love😃
A beautiful glow on her face... (she used moisturizer 6 times a day) just when her sores would start drying and healing... it would show up all over again.
Amma Appa getting the feeling that SRIKANTH is causing her odd behavior...😭
~~~~
She waited the following week at Sultanpuri for a auto or a cab... he saw that and just drove off, their eyes met... she turned away as she saw him...
he didnt stop to check if she got a ride or not...
They met at Crosswords one afternoon in her coffee break
While she was boiling and aggravated every minute she spent at Spectrum and every minute outside of it.. THERE WAS NO EMOTION OR REACTION ON HIS FACE..
He acted like he DIDNT EVEN KNOW HER
For some reason that angered her more, she wore her love and hate on her sleeve with pride... he? He just wore his BR tee😡
She had 11 books in all, the glossy, Percy Jackson, and Harry Potter books messed with the magazines and the Financial Planning books Appa wanted
It slid from the center to the floor...
She bent down, picking them up, one slid under the shelf... she saw a pair of flip flops, the toes didnt have to caress hers she would know those toes ANYWHERE
Her stomach lurched... she looked up hurridely to make sure it was not him
IT WAS HIM...😳
She looked down... and began picking up the pile...😡
She only had 10 books now, in a hurry to give him the cold shoulder she walked off to the cash register, he bent to pick up the Lightning Thief
He put it straight up on the top shelf... so she could see and walked away
When the clerk told her she only had ten, she wnet back to search and found the 11th staring at her smugly like the insenstive b-----
that loves to make love to her...
She rode the elevator with Ranjan one morning, Ranjan compliment the sea green crepe chiffon saree she wore...
"Mom has me singing again this evening" she muttered
"U will wear a grand saree I think" he gussed
She nodded shyly
The elevator stopped at 5th, he got in with a coffee cup in hand...not even giving his Dad a look
"Did u want coffee?" Ranjan asked
She only shook her head, not wanting to talk,
Some guys argued about who was trying to get off...
His eyes slid over her form... her hair appaeared moist... her saree clinging from the morning showers outside... he could see an outline of lace inside her blouse
She lifted her leather laptop bag and hugged it...blocking his view😃
