THE VALIANT GAME✔️

Vidathri : that's your mom's favourite. Because of you she stopped eating them.

Nivriti and Dhruv ( unison ) : who told her to stop eating that ? 

Vidathri looked at both of them. Even Dhruv and Nivi looked at each other and giggled.

Vidathri : You know her right Nivi ! Isha will tell her iconic dialogue !

Nivi : that's my favourite. But i don't feel like eating if people beside make such faces.

Nivi recited Ishanvi's dialogue. Dhruv found this dialogue extremely familiar. He heard this dialogue multiple times. A small smile formed on him after listening a name that is familiar. He felt excited to meet Nivi's mom who shares the same name. Not just for that reason but also because of the reputation she had.

Nivriti : When amma will be returning ? 

Vidathri : She will be back on Saturday. 

Nivriti : 4 days trip ! 

Vidathri : Hmm. 

Nivriti : ask her to bring a baby kangaroo for me ! I want to see one.

Vidathri : we can't bring like that. It won't survive in india. I will take you there in summer vacations.

Nivriti : Hmm. 

Vidathri : Dhruv ! Why you are silent ? 

Dhruv : nothing ! Can i have a look around the house ? I just want to make sure that the house is totally safe. I spoke with few maids and guards. They all seem to be genuinely respectful to you.

Vidathri : Hmm. They are good people. You can have a look around the house after dinner. 

Dhruv : Ok ! 

Nivriti : I will show our house to him.

Vidathri : Ok ! Have your food first. Stop talking ! 

Nivriti pouted and ate the dinner. After they are done a maid served desert to them. 

Nivriti : Come Dhruv ! Let's go ! 

Vidathri : Don't eat his brain baby ! You will forget time when you are talking . You will be late to school tomorrow .

Nivriti : I don't have school tomorrow. There is a PTM. 

Vidathri : I don't think I can make it tomorrow. Fine ! I'll cancel my meeting.

Dhruv : If you don't mind ! I will attend it as a guardian.

Vidathri : are you fine with that Nivi ? 

Nivriti : Ok ! 

Nivriti held his hand and dragged him. Vidathri went to her study and engrossed herself in some work.

.........

Nivriti : Hey ! From where shall i start ? 

Dhruv : as your wish madam ! 

Nivriti : let's start from the garage and lower level ! 

Dhruv : Ok ! 

Nivriti dragged him to the lower level . There is a gym , garage , indoor pool and some arcade stuff. There are 2 closed rooms.

Nivriti : this room is the medical room and that's my mom's personal space. She loves painting. 

Nivriti showed the simple medical room and took him to Ishanvi's space. As she unlocked the door and turned the lights on. Dhruv is welcomed by multiple paintings hanging in the room. They are extremely beautiful. He doesn't know why but he got a feeling that they are familiar to him. He walked towards the painting of a girl standing among roses. He observed the painting keenly and saw tear stains on the girl's face. He saw the signature at the bottom of the painting. His eyes grew wide after seeing that. That's his isha's signature. He looked at Nivi who is looking at him with her big doll like eyes. 

...........

Ishanvi reached Melbourne on the next day. She had a sound sleep in the plane throughout her journey. She called Vidathri immediately after reaching the hotel. After talking to her for few minutes she got ready for the meeting. She wore beige formals and tied her hair into a bun. She had breakfast and went to meet the client. As she stopped in-front of his house. She is welcomed by his PA Sherlyn. Vidathri owns multiple businesses. Her Business includes mainly Construction &Infrastructure . But she also textiles & fashion , Event Management, Hospitals , Food industries , etc... as subsidiaries.

Ishanvi is here to talk about a deal related to talk with a client named Edward who wants them to design and construct his new Company's new corporate headquarters. He is a businessman based in London . But he wants to change the headquarters to Melbourne as he is shifted there recently.

Sherlyn : Hello Ma'am ! Sir is waiting for you .

Ishanvi : Hello ! 

Sherlyn took her to a room where Edward is sitting in a wheelchair.

Ishanvi : Hello Mr.Edward ! 

Edward : Hello Ms.Ishanvi ! I am sorry for troubling you people.

Ishanvi : it's alright ! How are you feeling now ?

Edward : better than yesterday. Take your seat ! 

A maid offered some juice to ishanvi. She accepted by murmuring a small 'thank you'. She gave a small briefing to him about the project and showed the designs. He loved them.

Edward : your work is impressive ! I never thought that india have such good civil engineers and architects. Even their bodies are very well designed.

It irked Ishanvi. He is looking at her pervertedly. She felt like punching him. But she stayed calm.

Edward : putting the construction charges aside what amount you are expecting for this project?

Ishanvi : I didn't sign the deal yet ! 

Edward looked at the documents. Only his sign is present.

Edward : Do it then ! I am really impressed with your work. I am willing to pay little more than what you guys are expecting.

Ishanvi teared the documents and threw them in the dustbins. Edward looked at her with a shock.

Edward : why you did that ? Such a brainless indian bitch ( mutters ) !

Ishanvi heard him.

Ishanvi : It's not a deal until it's done. We Indians have lot of pride because we never snatched anything from other countries. I will see who is going to take up this project ! I will put your name in blacklist. You know very well about the influence Vidathri have across the world right ! 

Edward : you are just an employee. You are not the boss ! Remember that ! 

Saying that ishanvi stormed off. Edward and sherlyn tried to stop her but she didn't listen.
