Marriage or a compromise

Part-83

"Shit, shit, shit." Randhir cursed banging his fist on the steering wheel. "This Mumbai traffic can sometime be really pain in the ass." Randhir groaned letting out few more curse words.

"Language Randhir." Sanyukta frowned at her husband.

Currently they were sitting in the car, stuck in this horrifying Mumbai traffic from past half an hour.

"My language is least of my worries right now Sanyukta. As you could see I have bigger crisis in my hand, like dropping you home and going back to office to attend that damn meeting, that to with in twenty bloody minutes." He frustratingly ran his fingers through his hair.

The meeting was important, Sanyukta could tell it from the way Randhir was behaving. But then again the meeting before the lunch was important too. For the companies like Shekhawat and businessmen like Randhir every meeting had to be important to maintain their position of being on top.

For them it's just not about ruling the world, it's about conquering it too. To be on top is fine but being on top with a certain authority is different story all together.

"Is the meeting really important Randhir?" Sanyukta very well knew what his response will be, still she asked. Well it's better to listen to already known answer than the curses coming out from his mouth. God! Men and their habit of cursing.

"No. It is not important." Randhir replied, his attention still on the road as his pressed the horn continuously. Yeah! As if that's going to help. Sanyukta rolled her eyes.

"Oh! God, stop blaring the horn. It's irritating." Sanyukta lightly slapped his hand which was pressing the horn.

"You know what is irritating? This.." He pointed his hands directing the long endless lines of vehicles in front of the car. "This traffic is irritating." He sighed again pressing the horn.

"From when you became so dramatic? It's just a traffic and you are behaving as if some world war III is going on." She chuckled. "Now be a good citizen and stop making noise pollution."

"Are you a environmentalist or some sort of ambassador of green environment?" He asked twitching his lips.
"Neither." She replied.

"So why this lecture on 'save environment' 'go green' and all that rubbish." He air quoted the words with high irritation evident in his voice.
"Because I'm a responsible citizen and it's my duty to keep our environment healthy. It's called making others aware of their duties too not lecturing them." She huffed looking at Randhir who instead of listening to her was busy looking out of the window.

"Hey! Are you even listening to what I'm saying?"  She poked his elbow.
"Sh! Sanyukta." He gestured putting his finger on his lips. "I'm calculating something." He narrowed his eyes looking at the lane on his right which was a supposedly short-cut to the office.

"And may I ask what are you calculating, genius." She whispered to him. She knew there was no need to whisper but it was just adding the effect to environment and she was enjoying it. Childish. Yeah. But whatever.
"An escape route." He answered. "But for that you have to keep your mouth shut." He examined the distance between his car and the car at the back through rear view mirror.

"Okay, listen." Randhir turned towards Sanyukta after he was done with whatever calculation he was doing. "The plan to drop you home has to wait because we are directly going back to office and for once Sanyukta you will not lecture me about traffic rules, rash driving or will not complaint what I'm doing is illegal. I'll keep you safe I promise but you just keep your moral lectures to yourself only for a while. Got it?" He asked pointing his index finger to her.

Sanyukta helplessly nodded with no option left. Randhir looked really pissed off and this was no time for fun and sarcasm.

"Good." He gave her faint smile patting her cheek which she too returned with a small smile.

Without saying any other words Randhir accelerated the car and soon they were driving in lane on full speed causing chaos on a already messed up road.

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

"Wow!" Sanyukta exclaimed as Randhir put the car to halt in front of the building.
"Come on." Randhir got out the car and gestured Sanyukta to follow him.

She was about to say that how much she enjoyed the ride but it seems like Randhir was in no mood to listen so with no option left she too followed him inside the building.

"So," Randhir looked at his watch. "I have this meeting in five minutes. I'm directly going to the second floor, you know the way to my cabin feel free to go there or anywhere else in the office I'll meet you probably in an hour or so." He said and turned to walk towards the elevator without bothering to hear her reply, leaving her alone in the lobby with few employees and the receptionist giving her sorry glances.

She looked at them giving them a faint smile which they returned with a apologetic one. They had seen this side of their boss so it was nothing new for them. Workaholic Randhir was what whey were used to.

Sanyukta quickly made her way to his cabin to escape from anymore embarrassment.

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

"Evening." Randhir greeted the people sitting in the conference room before taking up his own sit. "Shall we start the meeting?" He said showing his authority.
"Sure." The presenter smiled starting the presentation.

As soon as the presentation started Randhir mind drifted to Sanyukta and the feeling of guilt enveloped him making it hard for him to concentrate on the meeting. The way he behaved with her was extremely rude and not at all acceptable. She was just being nice to him and he on the other hand treated her like that. The pale smile on her face and look to hide her embarrassment when he ordered her in the lobby with of employees made him more guilty. This was no way to treat his princess. He hate this workaholic and angry Randhir. This always makes thing a big mess.

"Mr Shekhawat are you listening?" The man asked.
"Sorry, but I need to go. I'll be back in few minutes." Randhir said getting up.
"But you can't leave the meeting in between." He protested.

"Of course I can." Randhir smirked. He never had let anybody dominant him.
"If you will leave right now than I'll consider this deal cancel."
"I hope you know what you are saying Mr Singh. You need this deal more than our company so I advice you to think while I'm gonna." Randhir said sternly and walked out with Shail following him on his toes.

I know I'm sorry for the delay but I'm going through writer's block :3 :3 I'll try to update next soon. Till then vote and comment. Thank you so much
