AM PM - A Forever Love Story

ch 3 : few people make us happy

6th Jan

It was 8:30 am. so cold that I just wished to lay on my bed with my coffee and my blanket, but unfortunately work is important and today I have a very important meeting with MALHOTRA'S COMPANY.
I was ready to leave the house for my work, but then Navya stopped me.

"Wait, wait Pia wait,"she shouted "What? ," I asked "Pia first join hands in front of god. Today is your meeting so join your hands in front of them, your meeting will be successful," she said

I gave her a weird look and checked the time. I was getting late

"Navya you know I don't believe in god. So please don't force me ,"I said a bit annoyed

"Ok, at least what I will complete the Pooja and then you can take the parshad. Please for me", she said

"Ohk navya, "I said

She went into the Mandir and I followed her while watching the time . I removed my sandals and I too went inside The Mandir. Navya was shocked but happy. She thought I would do the Pooja but I went to the parshad And took a ladoo from there.

"What the hell are you doing Pia?" She shouted "Babes tell your god that Pia Singh has taken your laddu," I shouted from outside and ran away.

I reached my office at 9:10.

"Good morning, ma'am", Neha said

"Morning Neha", I said "Neha check the presentation twice they will reach here at 10:00"

"Yes ma'am", she said

10:30 am

I was waiting for them, but they were late.I don't like people who are late and yes, I don't like waiting too.

After 5 mins mister Malhotra came

"I am sorry, Miss singh,"he said

I didn't reacted. I wanted to shout, but then I knew my company needs them.

"It's OK, but what happened?" I asked

" I got stuck in the traffic jam", he said

"It's OK Vikas let's get the meeting started,"I said

" Offcourse ", Vikas said

Our meeting was successful. he was about to leave when he stopped and said "pia there is a problem"
"Whatt? "I asked
"Actually, I need to go back to my house in London.I am a lawyer too."He said

"What?? If you are a lawyer, then why you came here?" I asked, annoyed

"Actually in India I help my cousin brother. but my real profession is a lawyer, so I need to go to London there is an emergency. "He said
"But then why your brother is not here with you?" I asked frustrated
"He had some work. Pia I am sorry, please." He requested I was really, really frustrated. I looked at Neha she told me to calm down.

"OHK but this is the last time that this is happening" I said "Yes, sorry" Vikas said and left the meeting room

I was really annoyed but because of my company I didn't react.

It was 4: 00 pm when I left the office. My head was paining badly as my day was not good. half of the day went shouting and yelling. when I came out of the company. I saw a boy troubling Barkha (my receptionist) I went there.

"Barkha what is happening?", I asked "Ma'am "she said.

Her eyes widened.

"Barkha who is he? Is he troubling you? "I asked

"N..oo. Maa... m, "she said

"But Barkha I saw he was shouting at you," I said "Ma'am, he is my broth____, she was about to say when that boy interrupted her. "Excuse Me its between me and her so don't interfere in between" he said

"Bro pleases go I will come wait for me in the car" Barkha said in a low tone.

Barkha had tears in her eyes.

"Barkha are you OK, " I asked.

"Ma'am, he wants me to marry his friend and stop working for some time, but I don't want to marry him. He is not a good person, " she said while crying

"Barkha if you don't want to marry him say no, that's it you are an independent girl so just say no" I suggested her.

"Ma'am, you won't understand I belong to a middle class family and I have to agree with what my parents say . Ma'am, I don't know about your family but they should be proud of you, but my parents are not proud of me. thank you for caring. it feels good that someone cared for me."she said

"Barkha you are a beautiful girl and you are just 20. your life is just started don't spoil it. It's your life and I will suggest you one thing, sometimes you should do what you want. Even if you are from middle class family and you know you you can go really far in your life. so don't waste it," I said

She wiped her tears and went away

I went into my car. while I just thought about Barkha. my head was paining badly. I was so angry at his brother. I really wanted to slap his brother. I don't know why her problem was hurting me. Her talk about my family hurted. I just wanted to cry.

I reached home.

I saw kabir there talking to navya.

Kabir my second best friend. he is a total copy of navya but a bit mature. he loves his guitar and loves to sing and I love to hear him.

"Hey pia", kabir said

I was so angry so I just went inside my room and banged the door on the face of kabir.

" Pia what happened?".kabir said
"Pia are you OK? "Navya asked

I didn't responded.

"Pia Pia open the door. "Navya said.

"Just go away. go away idiots", I shouted

"Hmmm" Kabir said

"Kabir I am really not liking this. Maybe she is crying, maybe something happened to her that she is angry." Navya said

"Navya calm down. I know her she will come out". He said and went away.

" Kabir stop waits." Navya shouted.

I was still in my room and after some time a tear came out of my eyes.

Tears. Tears I can't understand why they always come. In happiness, in anger, in pain.means every time.

I don't know why, but I just felt bad. maybe I wanted Barkha to do what she wants or maybe because of what she said.

After sometime. I heard someone playing a guitar and singing a song.

It was Kabir

When I need hope and inspiration
You're always strong when I'm tired and weak
I could search This whole world over
You'll still be everything that I need.....
Na.. na... na...na...na....

You're my bread when I'm hungry
You're my shelter from troubled winds
You're my anchor in life's ocean
But most of all you're my best friend.
Na..na...na...na..

I wiped my tears and automatically a smile appeared on my face and I went out of my room and gave a look to Kabir with a smile.
I came near to him and gave him a hug.

"Kabir you know I love you while you sing."I said

"ha-ha I know and this song is especially for your pia." Kabir said

We sang the song for some time and we ate our food.
These people always make me smile.i thought
°°°°°°
People say we need lots of people in our life to make us happy but that's not true.We need honest and a person who loves you a lot to make you happy.maybe they are few but happiness will be more.
