Joravar was deeply engrossed in his work, his fingers flying across the keyboard as he navigated through various documents on his laptop. He hit a roadblock when he realised he needed a specific file to continue his project. With a sigh, he got up from his chair and left his cabin, heading towards the reception area.

At the reception desk, Priyanka was busy scrolling through an online shopping site on her laptop. She was searching for the perfect saree to wear to the upcoming party. After filtering through countless options, her eyes lit up as she found a stunning red saree. Since black was not an option, she decided that red would be the next best choice.

Priyanka was in the process of placing her order on Flipkart when Joravar approached her desk. He noticed the concentrated look on her face as she finalised her purchase. Clearing his throat softly, he said, “Hey, can you give me the file for the London resort project?”

Priyanka glanced up, momentarily surprised by his presence. “Oh, yes, of course. Just a moment,” she replied, her voice courteous. As she turned to locate the file, Joravar’s eyes caught the vibrant red saree displayed on her screen. A smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he quickly deduced that she was planning to wear red for the party.

Priyanka handed him the file, saying, “Here it is.”

“Thank you,” Joravar said, taking the file from her. He returned to his cabin, but the image of the red saree lingered in his mind. Inspired, he decided to make a matching statement at the party. He opened his laptop again, this time navigating to the same brand’s website from which Priyanka had purchased her saree.

He quickly found a red kurta that matched the shade of Priyanka’s saree. After a brief moment of consideration, he placed the order, adding a special instruction for both outfits to be made in the same style. Satisfied with his decision, he leaned back in his chair, imagining the surprised look on Priyanka’s face when she saw him at the party.

Joravar's thoughts were interrupted by a notification confirming his order. He smiled to himself, pleased with his plan.

Mr. Shekhawat tapped the window again, more insistently this time. I knew we couldn't sit there forever. Slowly, I lowered the window just enough to speak.

“Bhai, aap ke sasur ji aaye hain. Baat nahi karoge?” Abhi said teasingly, trying to lighten the mood.

“Chup ho ja zara. Kya karu ab?” I snapped back, my mind racing for a solution.

“Don't worry. Bahar chalte hain, let’s see kya bolte hain wo,” Abhi suggested confidently.

Taking a deep breath, we both stepped out of the car and stood in front of Mr. Shekhawat.

“Who are you? Sach batana, I saw what you did with Raj,” Mr. Shekhawat demanded, his eyes piercing.

Oops, so we were exposed. Should I confess that Akriti and I love each other?

Before I could decide, Abhi jumped in, trying to handle the situation. “You don’t know him? He is a renowned businessman in today’s world. Owner of the Anderson Co.”

“Aur aapki tareef?” Mr. Shekhawat asked Abhi, his tone sharp.

“Are, hamari tareef mai toh aap kuch bhi keh sakte hain, lekin hume sab Abhiman keh kar bulate hain,” Abhi said proudly, puffing out his chest.
