He walked munching a sandwich which he grabbed from the cafe near by..where a laptop bag was hanging on his shoulder.he wore a black jeans with a formal blue shirt.

Ragini literally ran behind him after she spot him walking ahead.
And she walked ring next to him:Good morning sir.
Sanskar smiles before even turning to her. He knew it was Ragini.
Sanskar:very good morning...
Ragini:did you not have breakfast?
Sanskar:this..this is my breakfast everyday.
Ragini:for real.
Sanskar:yup..
Ragini:Should I get you breakfast from tomorrow...
He interrupts: prepping for being my wife?
Ragini was flushed by his sudden reply.she was genuinely concerned for him:No...
Sanskar: it's not needed... Even after our wedding I do not want you to do this stuff for me.
Ragini looks at him.
Sanskar: don't bother yourself...
Ragini:bother? I make little more from what I usually do..
Sanskar:I do not want you to take even that little trouble.don't worry I can manage.
That was when she spots few employees.so she slows down leaving behind him.
While he turns:do you wanna have some. It's really very tasty. You will love it too
He forwards the sandwich.
He literally forgot about the surrounding.
While people there looked at them.
Ragini:No ..thank you sir. If you permit I would like to take my leave.
He looks at her for a moment. That's when he realised:oh okay...
She quickly moves away...
He looks around and the people continue what they were doing.
Sanskar:Ahh... It feels like being a thief. But why to hide? Oh Ragini...
He ends up smiling.

*******************************

Ragini along with 5 others in the team, they were prepping for the new food project.They had wore a white coat, gloves and a cap.

Anuj:Sanskar sir has immense trust in us. So we have to keep this trust no matter what!!
Samar:Yes chief.
Anuj:once the product gets approved I will sponsor trip for all of you.
While other 5 looked amused.
Ragini:then we will do double hardwork.
Samar:Ragini... I didn't expect this from you. It's okay if I say this.
She slaps on his arms as everyone laughed, as they were literally liked teasing each other but always sticks together in every project and it makes more fun to see them fight.
Arshi:but Samar is right.
Veer:you guys look like a typical bro sis combination.
Samar:I don't want her as a sister.

Anuj claps:guys jokes apart let's be serious
Anuj: the other branch from pune, Bangalore and Darjeeling are also in this. We have to crack it no matter what...
All nods.

After sometime..
They were working.
Sanskar looks from the glass partition along with Priya.
He notices Ragini who was working while Samar was blabbering something to her which was making her laugh.
Priya:hopefully they crack this...
Sanskar:yes, hopefully.
Priya:but you were supposed to do this project.
Sanskar:I was supposed to... But the senior executive post is empty for long. If Anuj cracks this as a group leader then he will be promoted. And I know he is capable to do this.
Priya smiles at him:but still...
Sanskar: let's grow together Priya!!!
He moves from there.
Priya:how can I forget he helped me aswell.
Where as leaders try taking the credit but sanskar was one such CEO of this branch who went along with the group. He himself chose the subordinates from the lower departments. That's why people loved joining his team.
With this project he could have got the brownie points and also could have got lots of benefits but he rather chose to give it to someone else. Who can do this than the person who was selfmade. He knows the difficulties and hardwork.

*******************************

Sanskar wiping his hair with towel. His call was on speaker:What are you doing tomorrow?
Ragini: I do have some work.
Sanskar:oh... What work?
Ragini: dad is going to Rohit's college for Ptm. His supermarket needs a supervisor for tomorrow.
Sanskar:Ohh ....

Sanskar:hey you did not tell me that about the differences. We discussed few days back.
She left out a breath. He was on the same topic.
Sanskar:daughter of retired Colonel says we had a huge gap....
Ragini being reasoning:I did not mean that... I thought about us. I thought you deserved someone much better than me. I had seen an idol in you. As I told you you were that I can't reach(but realising that he loves teasing her And being reasoning)For how long... Please deliberately don't ask me this ...
He left out a laugh
Ragini: it seems you got engaged to nag me about this.or want to listen good things about you from me.
Sanskar:at some point yes. Because I was so hurt of your rejection.and also I love listening good stuffs about myself who doesn't love to?
Ragini:Sir?! Are you serious?
Sanskar:wait... Are you serious you are still calling me sir. I can understand around the office hours but what now?
Ragini:I can't....
Sanskar:why is that? Half a month is passed already we will be married very soon. Wait.. don't tell me you are planning to continue with sir thing.
Ragini:give me sometime...
Sanskar:ahh... Okay as you wish.
Ragini: actually I had to ask you something.. why do you want to date me..?ah.. no.. Marry me?
He smiles:you wanna know?
Ragini:of course..I wanna know it
His smile grew wider imagining her expression.
Sanskar:well .. how do I start? Actually.....
Ragini interrupts:stop stop.... Not now.
Sanskar:what?then when?
Ragini:I am securing this like the way you have anticipation of listening your praisings from me. Same I do have that anticipation. I will listen to it tomorrow.
Sanskar for a moment looks at his phone with a broad smile:I am wondering if it's just a wrong number? This can't be the Ragini I knew...
She was embarassed now. Obviously she didn't realise what she spoke.
Sanskar smiles leaning on to the table where as Ragini who was cooking stopped suddenly endsup getting them slightly burnt.she immediately turns the flame off.
