Damn! She almost caught my men following her. So, I dismissed them for the time being and got to duty myself. She was currently praying at a temple. I walked in and stood behind her.
Seeing her pray with her eyes shut and hands in namaste mudra, filled my heart with a sense I couldn't exactly describe.
"Everything you ask, you will have shortly." I don't know what came over me when I uttered those words.
She turned to me in shock. DAMN! Her face!!! So beautiful, so radiant, just like an angel. I hadn't seen her this up close. I'm truly blessed to have seen her. She looks so ethereal. Even with that shocked expression on her face, she looks so cute. I want to pull her cheeks and kiss her forehead.
*Control yourself, mister. You will lose her forever if you do such creepy things. * my subconscious stopped me before I made any blunder.
I touched my ear not knowing what to do. Thankfully I had my pods on. I acted as though I was on call. She saw my pods and turned back. She was convinced I was on call. I breathed a sigh of relief.
After taking the prasada, I left the temple before her and waited for her to leave in my car. I couldn't risk her doubting me anymore.
"It's better you put a microphone too. You never know what you might get out of it." Guru's words played in my head while I saw her car leave my sight.
I had decided to put a tracker in her car and Guru had insisted I add a microphone too. I don't know why it felt like I was already invading her privacy with just a tracker. But, the greedy side of me wanted me to install a microphone too. But now, it was late.
My phone buzzed with a message from my office. I had almost forgotten my meeting. I got the engine running and made my way to the office.
"I have a meeting, it will take at least 45 mins. Make sure your men are at work. I need all the updates." I spoke as soon as Guru picked up his phone.
"Sure! I'll let him know your command." A female voice came back.
"Oh! Hi Lakshmi. Is Guru busy?" I asked. Lakshmi is Guru's wife.
"No, he is not. I just wanted to talk to my dear Prajwal. But I guess you don't have time for me." Uff the drama in her voice.
"I'm sorry. But I'm in a hurry now. I promise to make it up to you." I replied.
"It's ok. I know how important she is. Guru told me everything."
I rolled my eyes at her statement. Guru never tells anything to anyone except his wife. This top secret agent is shit scared of his wife. Could you believe it?
"My men are on the job." Guru's voice echoed in my car.
"Good. Also can we please meet in the next hour or so?"
