As Abhira reached the threshold, and reached out to open the door of the cabin; the door flew open from the other side. Both Arman and Abhira froze at the sight of Manoj standing at the gateway. Each muscle in their body tensing up in the anticipation of what comes next.

Manoj stood their shallowly, his expressions distant. He was continuously fighting with the storm that raged inside him. He stood there for a few moments battling whether to speak up what he had came for or not, while the couple let him take his own time.

After deliberating for a few more seconds he finally spoke up in a light tone, "We need to reach Singhania's at sharp ten. Therefore, I think we should leave now." he said all of it in one breath, as if he paused in between, he wouldn't be ever able to finish it off.

Arman and Abhira froze as his words settled in. Finally the things were coming around the way they thought. There were a mixture of joy and surprise in their reactions.

Arman was the first one to recover. He gently moved towards the duo, and putted a gentle hold around Abhira's bare waist; he pecked her temple and muttered in a low voice, "Good luck, biwi."

Turning to Manoj, he wished him too. Manoj, acknowledged it with a gentle nod and left from there muttering, "I'll wait in the parking lot. Come soon."

------------

As he left, Abhira hugged Arman tightly, jumping in delight. "Oh, Mumma! TYSSSM" she squealed. "You saw Arman, he just came to call me to join him. Oh how happy I am!!" she said still hopping around the cabin in delight.

Arman caught her, and steadied her. Setting her hair in place, he assured her "Everything is gonna fall back into its place soon. Have faith. Together we will make everything alright." Abhira nodded gratefully in response and pecked his lips.

"Now rush, biwi. Else wise, Chacha sa would have to leave all alone." Arman teased. Abhira jolted out of her la la land, grabbing her coat and purse she rushed out of the door, blowing kisses to her husband. Arman stood in the same position for a few moments where she had left him, chuckling at her antics before resuming his file work for the meeting ahead.

The ride to Singhania's office went in absolute silence with neither Manoj nor Abhira uttering a word. But Abhira wasn't pissed about it. She knew the things will take time to settle down but yes, they had a start today and she was contented with it.

As they reached the office, receptionist guided them to a specific room where the meeting was scheduled to take place. She left from there to inform the owners, asking them to wait for a moment.

They both sat there in pin drop silence. Manoj took out his file and started going through it, using it as an escape from the awkward silence. And Abhira turned herself to the room which has glass doors, taking in the vast and regal expanse of the building. She had did an entire research on the group before turning at their door.

Singhania's was a royal name in the world of business. It wasn't just a business company; it was a brand name of itself. The Singhania group was an old money. It belonged to the widely reputed Singhania family.
