Entwined Hearts

Sarika's POV :

"C'mon Di! It's just one party"
My little sister said while following me. There she goes again.

"No means no Aahu."
I replied and sat on my comfortable chair in my luxurious cabin with my head resting on it. My life's been so hectic lately and there's my little sister, Ahana being a pain in the ass as usual.

"Better start working than wasting your time on those useless friends of yours."
I added while typing on keyboard and staring my computer screen as she groaned and sat on the table to which I startled, she was sitting on THE TABLE in front of ME with her arms folded, she had the nerve to do it while she's well aware about how I'm so conscious about discipline and there she is making faces at me.

Her expressions suddenly escalated from a frown to a puppy face and her doe eyes staring at me. She pouted but I turned away, she can't fool me this time. I remembered when last time she made that face and I allowed her to party at our house I fell down in the most terrible way because she 'accidentally' threw the cooking oil on floor. I know that's the most random thing that could happen at a household but it actually happened. Well, back to present.

"Still a big No!"
I said and she got down from the table and sat on the couch.

"Di, I'll assist you in the next project."
Ahana said and I stared at her with surprise. I remember that I literally used to ask her everytime if she would like to assist me for many projects but she denied it saying that she wanted to live her life happily and after that I never asked her about it but deep down I hoped that she would assist me on big projects because she has the potential to take our already successful business to heights.

"Am I dreaming or what?"
These words escaped from my mouth, she gave me a mischievous smirk and folded her arms in front of her chest.

"In one condition! You'll allow me to organize the party!"
Well, dissapointed but not surprised. I also stood up and stood in front of her. She knows the terms of business really well, you have to find profit in every single thing. She got this quality from our mother in heredity. I knew, I had to give up ultimately, besides, it's just one party she's asking for and above all, she has agreed on assisting me with the next project which is once in a while moment.

"Fine, you can organise this party but not in the house."
I said as I didn't want to experience that butt-paining fall ever again. With that, Ahana jumped like some little kid and engulfed me into a hug with her small arms. I smiled and caressed on the back of her head, I loved her the most since she's the only I can rely on in hard times after our parents separated.

"You're the best!"
She squealed in excitement. After fixing her Dupatta, she left my cabin while humming to a song.

Only a minute passed since Ahana left until I heard knocking on the translucent glass door along with someone's voice.

"May I come in ma'am?"
It was a sweet voice which clearly belonged to my secretary Paakhi.

"You can."
I replied in a lower voice and Paakhi appeared in front of me, as always, she was well dressed and elegant. I wouldn't be surprised if anyone told me that she was more disciplined than I was.

"I've got your schedule for today, and our company has got an interesting deal."
Paakhi handed me the iPad she was holding. I looked at today's schedule and then noticed Paakhi's expressions, she seemed to be gratified.

"What's that deal?"
I asked still checking my schedule.

"You know about FeastFuse right?"
I nodded and noticed her expressions, those expressions which I never saw since the last four years. She worked for me since the last four years but I've never seen her that happy.

"Then you might know about Vihaan Kapoor."
She said and I nodded, Ahana is a huge fan of the desserts from FeastFuse, and not gonna lie, I totally understand why that foodchain is really famous, the desserts are amazing but the owner is really handsome as people say but I've never seen him, not even in photos. We tried their desserts when we were in Melbourne, sad that there aren't any branches in India.

"FeastFuse's first branch in India is opening in Mumbai and our company is in charge for the Interior Designing of the Restaurant!"

She shrieked, it was the first time I saw Paakhi that much excited, she didn't sound professional at that moment but an obsessed fangirl thinking about her favorite celebrity.

"That's really great."
I said with a smile, Paakhi then smiled softly at me after composing herself switching off her fangirl mode.

"I'll get going ma'am, there's a meeting after half an hour with the board members."
She reminded me as I nodded in response. As she opened the door I spoke, "Ahana will be assisting me in this project."

Paakhi turned around with her mouth forming an 'O'. Even she couldn't believe that Ahana Gautam has finally agreed to assist me.

"Got it!"
She said and left my cabin.

I sat on my chair and searched about FeastFuse, about the owner. I was looking for the foodchain in the wikipedia until my eyes fell on a photo of a guy. So this is Vihaan Kapoor, people aren't wrong at all, he is kinda handsome. NO! Control Sarika, you aren't like this!

I was doing my work until Ahana suddenly barged into my cabin, panting, eyes wide opened.

❝ Am I hearing it right? We're designing for FeastFuse!❞
