His Uncommitted Sin

House of Empty Rooms

Author's POV:

Vihaan opened the door of the passenger seat and pulled his wife out while she was doing everything to not go along with him. 

" Vihaan, leave me," She whispered seething in anger.

" I order you to pipe down and follow me." Vihaan pitched steaming with annoyance. 

" Vihaan, there are going to be people around and what will you answer them?" Kanvi asked genuinely concerned trying to pull her hand from his.

" I know how to shut the buzz. Now come along." He said and stopped in the elevator lobby in the parking. The elevator doors opened and Vihaan took Kanvi along pressing the stop to the 7th floor. 

All the while she looked at him angrily as he was not getting her intentions. She doesn't want to make any appearances with him which could lead to chaos later.

The elevator took a stop on the 7th floor and Kanvi silently followed Vihaan to his cabin. 

" Woah! This is so good," She muttered looking around the office. It's smaller compared to her brother's cabin but it was cosy though painted with shades and tones of grey.

" Why are you so obsessed with black?" Kanvi asked going through the books placed in the rack. 

" So that it could devour the darkness from the people like you," He said and Kanvi's face fell. Somewhere her heart pained with his comment. But she was quick to brush it off and put on a smile.

" You can order whatever you want," Vihaan mumbled bending down to his desk to pull a file. 

" No, I'm good thank you," She mumbled and sat on the sofa. "Can I look around your cabin?" 

" No," The answer came swiftly than the speed of the meteor. 

" Oh," She made her mouth in O but her mischievous side is not ready to obey his orders. She stood up and went to the racks where there were some frames and a few awards. She looked at them carefully and he got his first award when he was 27. She was impressed. 

She walked to the rack of files neatly arranged according to the tender Alphabet. 

" So, you got your first award at 27?" She asked and Vihaan was trying so hard to concentrate on the work he was doing. "Hmmm..." Came his monotonous answer. He caught her glimpses occasionally and she was standing on her toes to reach for the books and finally giving up.

The intercom rang and it was from Bea. 

" There is there work we need immediately Mr. Aurora. We need you to get done with the analyzing data. There was pressure on our MD from the clients." Bea spoke and Vihaan hummed.

" I'm almost there Bea. Will send you in in an hour." He mumbled and diverted his whole concentration on his work. 

His fingers were typing furiously on the keyboard while Kanvi's eyes were as fast as the robot checking the apt book she wanted to look into. But the books there are so boring for her.

" Stop lettering around the shelf and dare you touch any Kanvi. Mainly the one with the files." Vihaan warned, his eyes still darted towards the desktop screen. 

Kanvi's fingers trailed across the spines of the files on Vihaan's shelf, her curiosity getting the better of her. Despite his earlier denial, she couldn't resist the urge to explore. As she delved deeper into the shelf, her eyes landed on a file with an intriguing title - "Project Eclipse".

She pulled it out, and her eyes widened as she began to read. The file detailed a revolutionary marketing strategy, with intricate graphs and charts that showcased Vihaan's exceptional analytical mind. Kanvi's gaze devoured the pages, her mind absorbing the brilliance of the plan.
