Anika went up to the basin few steps away from the actual cafe, followed by Shivaay. He was busy gaining his composure. He did not wanted to act like a wimp in front of her, but in his own coolness that can drool thousands of girl over him. “So sorry Shivaay sir he didn’t did it deliberately. You can wash your stains here.” she spoke softly. Shivaay hummed in response but suddenly realization took place. “How did she knew I am Shivaay?” he thought to himself and asked the same to her. “Ohh ! That was easy. My boss told me that there’ll be two people coming for which a corner table has to be set up. He said one will be Mr desai and the other will be little…short. Only little !” She completed giggling. She looked up to see that he was glaring at her. She patted herself mentally and thought “ohh I am at work. What shall I do now? I am suppose to behave myself.”
Shivaay is always touchy about his height. Like him his brothers also have their own requirements. Nobody should ask them about their hairs and body. He reminded himself that his brothers will be waiting for him. He saw Anika and then spoke “don’t dare to say anything to me from now on. This is your first time so I forgive you.” Anika thought to herself “first time ! What does he mean. Am I going to meet him again?” She brussed off her thoughts and saw him cleaning the stains. She pointed her finger above his chest indicating a extra mark. He didn’t saw her so he herself went up to him and lightly brussed her hand over the stain with little water casually. It was her 2nd day. She was not too perfect in all these things. Her qualifications made his boss accept her. For him it was not usual, it was electrifying, it was magical and a moment which he cannot forget. The mere 2 seconds were one of the happiest phase of his life. He looked at for a second more and left from there towards his table. She was surprised.
When she went to his and his client’s table she saw the thing or rather the creature she hates the most- her boss. He didn’t had a crook nose, bulging eyes or a strict face but still she feared him. She feared her job as she has to feed her brother. She was an independent working women. Her boss was as grumpy as someone could be. He inquired “Mr oberoi I hope you enjoyed your precious time here in Cafe Coffee Day. Hope you didn’t feel inconvenience.” He told, the last line looking at Anika. Shivaay so wanted to say all that happened but he was stopped by seeing something. She was closing her eyes tightly, fingers were crossed and at times looking at him with one eye. How can he say anything looking at her face, which was so innocent….so cute. He gave up. He told “no Mr chopra, nothing of that sort happened. I enjoyed genuinely. Am Glad that I came here.” Anika opened both her eyes as she was expecting something else and in her mind only was thinking about the new jobs. She was happy. Really happy. Her boss ordered ” miss anika you may go to see other preparations till I have a word with them.” Anika nodded giving a glance to Shivaay. He saw that.
While shivaay was going to sit in his black porshe car from the cafe to go home, he noticed her again. This time looking at him. She waved him and said “Thank you” which was barely audible to him from the glass door. He read her lips and ‘smiled’ from inside.
He barely had reached the main door when was interrupted by the youngest male oberoi- his brother rudra. He started questioning him and was not giving a chance to speak. He was expecting some lovely moments with his brother’s newly found friend. Shivaay tired went to his room, loosening the tie which followed by rudra. Om too joined him shortly. After a long time of their question ceremony, he told everything expect the brushing off their hands while removing the strains. Rudra spoke “see bhaiya I told you see she is such a sweetie ! If you love me na…then you should meet her daily, make friends and you never know when you will….” Shivaay wondered, he also did a great job by saving her but rudra was taking her side. He said okay I will think about making her my friends. The brothers chatted and then went for their personal works.
Om went to attend a call by Gauri, smiling and at times laughing with her ‘s’ and ‘sh’ thing. He sometimes hallucinated Shankar ji with him. Gauri’s interest in him made him do the same too. He went on and on sharing his day’s event.
Rudra went over to soumya to discuss about the projects given to them. His luck indeed favoured him as he wanted to be his partner in the assignment. In some corner of her heart he admired her cute looks and could not stand any other boy near her. At school also he was now a little protective for her. Soumya liked this change and him too.
Shivaay saw his brothers busy from the corner of his eyes. He smiled and wished their life’s to be beautiful.
