Without Notice (Book 2)

#17

A grey SUV arrived by a banquet hall. A number of cars were parked in the parking lot of the hall. The visitors were randomly going inside while chattering with each other. The event was organised by Niranjan Grover for funding the kindergarten school.

Devendra Pandey was one of the visitors. He had a glass of wine in his hand and was sitting with his colleague Shankar Vyas.

Pandey urged him, " You can atleast have a little one in party. "

" I am living on less than half portion of my liver. I can't. "

Pandey chuckled, " How many days are left with you? "

" All the days I have to live, I want to have a lots of eroticism. "

Pandey was annoyed by what Shankar said.

He asked, " From where do you bring that lust you have inside. You always copulate with a harlot on the upper floor of my bungalow. "

Niranjan appeared before them. Pandey stood along with Shankar and shook hands with him.

Niranjan asked, " How is it going Mr. Pandey? "

" All good Mr. Grover. You are not remembering me these days. "

" Will definitely visit you if there is any job. What you did for us three years ago, I still remember that. "

Pandey chuckled, " Just visit to have some tea together. "

" Sure. I'll. "

Shivraj stepped in with his secretary Ariana and met Niranjan there. Shivraj hugged Niranjan and then welcomed them.

Shivraj said, " Such a grand event is rarely seen in Malaysia. "

Niranjan chuckled, " You are here for three days. Will celebrate our friendship together. "

" Yes but if we had Roshan with us then it would have been more fun. "

Ariana asked, " Roshan. Who is he? "

Niranjan and Shivraj paused for a while and then laughed.

Shivraj said, " There was the one. "

Niranjan added, " He was our partner actually. He was the smartest of all of us. Anyway. Drinks? "

" After a while. Where is Rastogi? "

" He might take some time. He is coming with his wife. "

Rastogi came inside the hall with his wife, Kashish who was in her mid thirties. As her name suggests, she was the woman every man would have dreamt of. Fair, mesmerising eyes, long black hair with a perfect shaped figure. She had worn a maroon shining saree and had a light makeup over her face. Anyone would have been mesmerized by just looking at her.

Her presence in the event had brought a kind of fragrance among the invitees there. Niranjan greeted them and introduced them to Shivraj who shook his hand with Rastogi and greeted his wife.

He said, " You are really a drop dead gorgeous woman. He is lucky to have you. "

Kashish thanked him for the compliment.

Amid the invitees, Shankar was staring at her with his lustful eyes. Kashish received a call from her contact and she went out of the hall to the gallery. Shankar saw Devendra who was busy with other invitees and left his chair.

Rastogi went to meet a office staff who offered him a glass of drink.

Shivraj whispered to Niranjan, " I know where the charity money will be transferred. "

Niranjan chuckled, " We are the veteran players in this arena. "

Shivraj agreed and picked up a glass of wine from the tray held by a waiter. Rastogi turned around to look for his wife but couldn't see her among the people. He walked ahead to find her.

Kashish finished her call and hung up the phone. While she was returning to the hall, she was interrupted by Shankar.

She asked, " Yes? "

" Could you please do me a little help? "

She nodded, " Please. "

" I have accidentally left my bag upstairs. I could have bring it on my own but I can't go up again and again because of my leg injury. "

" Okay. I'll bring your bag to you. "

" Nice of you. "

Kashish smiled and went upstairs. School principal Rishi Tyagi came on stage with a mic in his hand.

He spoke, " Everyone please. I would like to have your attention here on the stage. "

The invitees left their chattering and turned towards the stage except Devendra who was looking for Shankar.

Mr. Tyagi continued, " As you all know that the charity event is being held on the occasion of seventh anniversary of the PIONEER KINDERGARTEN SCHOOL. The event has been organised by the trustee of our school Mr. Niranjan Grover. I would like him to be here and address us about the event. "

The invitees clapped as Niranjan boarded the stage.

The rooms above the banquet hall were locked. Kashish couldn't find any unless she reached at a corner room of which the doors were opened. She entered the room, turned on the lights and realised it was a store room. A number of old cartons and furniture were kept there.

She heard the door creaking sound and turned around where she saw Shankar who was stepping towards her. She was stunned to see him but she was sure about his wrong intentions.

Rastogi searched her in the gallery when he got his eyes on the stairs.

Shankar had held her shoulders tightly and made her to stand with the wall. She tried to get her of him. He wanted to get his lips closer to her but she kicked him on his private part. He groaned in pain. As she got the chance, she ran away from the room where Rastogi was approaching towards her. She held him who realised that there might had been something wrong.

He looked at Shankar who came out of the room. Rastogi went to him, rammed him to the wall and then took him to the stairs where he kicked him so hard that Shankar rolled down over the stairs.

He groaned in pain and tried to stand up where he saw Devendra Pandey in front of him. Pandey looked at him and then turned his head up to see Rastogi and his wife on the top of stairs. He had understood what was going on before he entered the scene.

Shankar stepped towards him and tried to clarify the situation but Pandey grabbed his collar and took him out of the premises.
