When Two Stars Meet

Chapter - 1. An Unannounced Call

" Aaj phir ek din hai jise mujhe jeena hai, hoping aaj ka din bhi mujhe katna na pade. Me aaj ka din jeena chahati hu. Phir ek nayi subah, ek nayi umeed ko dekhna chahati hu. Aap sun rahe ho na, ya phir me abhi bhi waiting list me hun. Please na mujhe abb waiting list nahi rehna. Dekhiye aaj kitna acha mausam hai. Finally spring aa gya hai. Aur ab aapko bhi ana hoga aur meri baat sunni hogi. Samjh rahe hai na aap. Bhagwaan ji. Please aaj ka din ache se guzaariaega aur meri meeting ko successful karne me meri help kariaega. Thank you "
Subah ke 6:00 baj rahe the. Roz ki tarah Shreya ne apne laptop per ek morning note likha. Use lgta hai ki apni saari baate use Bhagwaan ji se share karna zaroori hai. Apna daily ka morning journal likhne ke baad Shreya ne khidki kholi aur ek lambi saans lene ke baad wo boli " Aaj ki subah bhut khaas hai, mera favourite season spring aaraha hai. Aur spring har saal ek naya chapter, ek nayi khushi lata hai ".
Kuch time khidki se bahar dekhne ke baad Shreya fresh hokar kitchen me gai aur apna favorite song ' Kiska Rasta Dekhe ( by Kishore Kumar) ' play kia aur sochne lagi ki aaj breakfast me kya banaya jaae. Bhut der tak soch vichar karne ke baad shreya ne khud se bola " Aalo to boiled hai hi, bas kuch masale daal kr, kuch veggies ko fry karke ek acha sa veg sandwich bana leti hu. " Aur khud se hi baat krti hui boli " Aur kuch na sahi, office me lunch mil jaata hai to kaam karne me asani hoti hai, warna adha din to mera khana banane aur baaki ka adha ye sochne me beet jyada ki aaj khane me kya banana hai " Ye soch kar Shreya bahut tez hasi.

"Shreya : SHREYA VARDHMAAN . A 25 years old woman. Joki banglore ke ek Interior and Exterior Department ke Creative heads me junior creative artist hai. Uska kaam clients ko unke hisaab se ideas suggest karna hai. Wo Banglore me 2BHK rented house me akele rehti hai. Independent hai. Apne kaam se bhut pyaar hai use. Lekin use logo se, duniya se jyda matlab nahi hai. Wo befikr hai, khushmijaaz hai . Jo bhi milta hai uska ban kar reh jaata hai. "

Office me baith kar Shreya apne hi khyalo me ghum thi ki tabi zor se ek tapli uske srr per baji aur wo apna masum sa chehra bana kar bina uski taraf dekhe apne laptop ko adhi khuli aankhon se boli " Soi nahi hu me jagi hui hu me , Riyaaaaa". Riya boli " Hairani mujhe tab hoti jab tum mujhe ye bolti ki mujhe neend aarahi hai , Riya. Mujhe sona hai. " Ye sun kar dono hi has pade. Riya ne aage bola " My sweet heart, meeting ka time ho raha hai. And everyone in the meeting is looking forward towards you. You know, you have very amazing ideas. I don't know how you become so creative with every single client ". Ye sunkar Shreya wishpered " I always stole ideas. " Ye sunkar dono has pade.

In the meeting room:
Mr. Saxsena ( Riya's & Shreya's boss) - Shreya! what's new ideas do you have for the recent Spring Fest that are gonna take place in next month. I want this contract. And i know you have the potential you crack this. Brief your ideas with Mr. D'suza and M/s Rai ( A middle age women working as creative head) .You can combine your idea or can present seperate ideas to me.

Mr. Saxsena : ARVIND SAXSENA , A 40 years old man. Who loves his startup. 'DESIGN n DECORE '. He is friendly mostly but when it comes to work he is strict and very professional.

Shreya said : " Acknowledged sir. We will come up with the ideas ASAP. If you have any requirements or if the host has any suggestions, recommendations or any themes in mind please convey it to us. "

Mr D'Suza said :" I know about this fest. The theme probably will be ' Sustainable Spring and Happy Earth '. As they always chose to do things which are new, innovative and eco- friendly. And Ms Shreya, the owner of the project are open to young personnel and their ideas. I'll appreciate if you take the lead and head this project." ( Mr. KEVIN D'SUZA : A 48 years old man, mainly work for arrangements and helps in finding out the possible problems in the projects. He work under Management and Finance Department.)

Riya said " Sir, meeting has been confirmed with the host Mr. Saral Pradhan. But the problem is he is very skeptical about the things. And one more thing we need to be very clear with our ideas and demands, budget will not be an issue. But he is a hardnut to crack. If you want I can fix appointment for upcoming Monday. " ( Riya Dhimaan - A 26 years old woman. An office colleague to Shreya and her one of the friends . She is working in HR Department and because of her help Shreya got this job 1.5 years ago. They share a very unique family bond as well. Riya is a sister to Shreya. They both are shoulders to each other as both of them live alone in Banglore away from their families. Riya lives in Working Women Hostel with one of her roommate.)

It's 7:00pm . And Shreya reached her home and sat on sofa.
( Brief description about Shreya 's residence :
Main gate then a wooden main door after entering on left side shoe rack which is open close form on right side keys holder. Then a raised platform after walking 10 steps a hall is there, which is a basically sitting area. On the left side of the hall there is an open kitchen. In front of kitchen there is a room with attached restroom and another room is right side beside the Ist room. Same attached restroom.
Shreya's room is at the corner. In her room there is a king size single bed in the centre of the room. While entering in her room, on the left hand it's her study table which has a window as well. On the right side of her room, it's divided in two parts where there is a restroom and rest is covered with her cupboard and few books related to interior designing. Same with another room.)

After coming from the office. Shreya lies on the sofa in the hall. And she muttered " Ek aur din kat gya. Pata nahi aage kya hoga." And after Freshnup she changed to comfy clothes. Normally she wear formal clothes plain pants and collered top and shirts. She made her dinner and at the same time she was working on her project. After dinner. It was 10:00 pm and she was on her bed and trying to collect some insights about the project. It was 1:30 am , after done with her brainstorming she was simply trying to sleep. She was about to take a nap. Suddenly her phone rang.

She was shocked to core. By trembling hands she picked her phone and checked the id. It was an unknown number , still she answered that call. On the call there was a man who has very charming and calm voice. He said, " Hello,aap Amay bol rahe hai , mera naam Advit hai, abhi kuch batane ka time nahi hai, Kavy ka accident hogya hai use 0+ blood ki bhut zaroorat hai. Wo Seekar Hospital ke accident emergency ward me. Use ek ghante me khoon milna bhut zaroori hai. Please jaldi aane ki koshish karo. Baaki baatein me milkar bata dunga. "Aur phone cut hogya .

Seekar Hospital ka naam sunkar Shreya thodi soch me pad gai. Aur khud se boli, " Don't worry sab theek hoga. Wo ladka theek hoga. Tum kar sakati ho, Shreya. " Usne ek call kia aur bahut tezi se bola , " Isse pehle tum pucho ki me kaisi hu theek hu ya nahi, koi pain hai ya medicine chahiye. Me bata dena chahti hu ki ye Shreya theek hai. Per tumhare hospital ki accident emergency ke ward me ek case hai , jisme patient ko 0+ blood chahiye joki blood bank me nahi hai . Aur jaha tak mujhe yaad hai tumhara blood donation ka time hogya hai to kya tum uski help kar skte ho. Patient ka naam Kavy hai. Please. Please please please."
Shreya ki ek saans me ye saari baat sunkar phone per jo insaan tha wo bola, " Tum bolo to apni jaan de dunga but pehle thoda saans lo, aram se baat kro. Aur tumhe kaise pata. " Shreya boli, " Wo sab mein baad me bata du gi but pehle tum uski help karo. "
