WHISPERS OF THE HEART

CHAPTER 4

Reyaansh's Room, 4:35 AM

Reyaansh's alarm clock rang, and he sprang out of bed, starting his day with a routine jog. The crisp morning air invigorated him as he ran through the quiet streets. Post-jog, Reyaansh headed to his home gym for a rigorous workout. Sweat dripped from his brow as he lifted weights and did push-ups.

Next, he showered and dressed in his favorite playlist's accompaniment.

At 7:20, Reyaansh got ready for the office, donning a crisp, tailored suit.

Downstairs, his family awaited him at the dining table.

"Good morning, everyone!" Reyaansh greeted, touching his Dada's (Devendra Singh Rathore) and Dadi's (Aishwarya Rathore) feet.

"Good morning, beta!" his mother, Akanksha, replied.

Reyaansh took his seat beside his father, Abhimanyu.

Akanksha spoke up, "Miaa arrives at 3 pm today. Send someone to pick her up from the airport."

Reyaansh nodded. "I'll take care of it, Mom."

Breakfast conversation revolved around business and current events.

After finishing, Reyaansh bid farewell to his family.

"Have a great day, everyone!"

His driver stood beside his Porsche, opening the door for Reyaansh.

The drive to the office was silent, Reyaansh engrossed in news updates on his phone.

"Reyaansh, sir, your wedding outfits are ready," his designer called.

"Thanks, I'll check," Reyaansh replied calmly, ending the call.

Reyaansh's Office, 8:45 AM

Ayaan, Reyaansh's assistant, greeted him with a warm smile.
"Good morning, Rey."

Reyaansh nodded, his eyes already scanning the day's schedule.
"Morning, Ayaan."

Ayaan followed Reyaansh into his spacious cabin, bearing a stack of files and notes.

Reyaansh settled behind his desk, focus shifting to the tasks at hand.

"Wedding preparations are underway," Reyaansh muttered to himself.

"Ayaan, remind me – the wedding venue is in Lonavla, correct?" Reyaansh asked.

"Yes, Rey. The entire Rathore family will be attending," Ayaan confirmed.

Reyaansh nodded. "Make arrangements for yourself, me, and the Rathore family.

Ayaan jotted down notes. "Consider it done, Rey."

"By the way, where are Aditya and Ekaansh?" Reyaansh inquired.

Ayaan replied, "Aditya's out of India for business. He'll reach Lonavla day after tomorrow, for the engagement.

As for Ekaansh...I tried calling, but his phone's unreachable."

Reyaansh nodded thoughtfully. "I'll call Ekaansh myself."

"And, Ayaan, send a driver to pick up Miaa from the airport today," Reyaansh added.

Ayaan nodded, scribbling more notes. "Done, Rey."

With tasks assigned, Ayaan exited the cabin.

Reyaansh immersed himself in work, the hours flying by.

Reyaansh's Office, 5:15 PM

Reyaansh dialed Ekaansh's number, his brow furrowed in concern.

After four rings, Ekaansh answered, sounding slightly breathless.
