~ She is in my lines ~

> Niel Malhotra <

" I won't mind breaking your teeth Arsh "

" oh please shut up Niel you didn't even did research on the company, with which you were gone to sign marger " and after a pause he added " And tell me one thing , she really don't remember you ? " and Arsh continues to laugh , not just a laugh but uncontrollable laugh .

Ok I am little embarrassed but nothing can change the feeling I am having right now , nothing can drag me down from the cloud nine I am on .

" hey bro stop smiling and tell me the whole scenario " he said and I couldn't help but a smile slipped out of my lips forming a curl up .

" this way sir "

" yea , Mr. Raichand  are we sure this company is good . You know what I mean " I asked him we were still in the corridor .

" yes no worries Mr. Malhotra "

" Okay so am totally trusting on you , because you said you did background research " I said and we entered in the conference room .

We greeted with everyone in the room but there was this one girl standing facing window, she was dressed up in formals but with open hairs .

An employee went to her , she called her twice but she didn't responded so the employee tapped her shoulder . She suddenly turned around and her long dark hair flipped , few strands got stuck on her face . As she brushed them away and lifted her eyes which were filled with innocence.

My heart skipped a beat.

Like everything went into slow-motion , and some one inserted a BGM to it . Because for once I could've forgotten my own name but these eyes , I can never .

My chest clenched and heart swelled up with so many emotions at once , ' I thought , I thought I will never see her again ' .

It's been eight years and yet her eyes holds the same depth . It still has that ability to make me loose my control , to make me loose my sanity , to make me surrender to her , totally her .

In all this thought process I didn't realised she was standing in front of me, and Raichand's  voice broke my trance by " He is Mr. Neil Malhotra and sir please meet Oberoi & CO. CEO Tara Oberoi " and she extended her hand with a warm smile , I bet she didn't remember me  .

As I kept looking her like a fool , Raichand nudged me to bring my attention back and I immediately slid my hand in her and awkwardly shook it .

Little did she know her touch just sent shivers down to my spine , it's current flowing in my veins now . I guess I won't mind not washing my hands ever again.

" Are we good Mr. Malhotra " with an Awkward yet concerning voice she asked . And my attention went to our still intertwined hands , which I was grabbing unintentionally .

I stepped back unwinding our hands " am.. am sorry Tara , I mean Miss Oberoi " .

" it's fine call me Tara only , that's what my name is " she stated , and a curl formed on the edge of my lips .
