Nidhi's POVThe meeting was good so far. Darshan though looked a bit tense. It was sure because of the contract.
"Acha woh red file zara pass karna." Mr Kumar's voice echoed from across the room.
He was seated right on the opposite side of Darshan. And I was seated diagonally to both of them, but more towards Darshan's side.
"Red file? Kyu? No!" He exclaimed! I looked at him in shock. And so did Mr Kumar.
Why was he behaving like a child? I've noticed something's off with him! He has been acting weird since our fight in his office over 'me not touching his stuff without his permission' thing.
"Darshan, Mr Kumar is asking for the file. If you won't give it to him, how are we gonna sign the contract?" I said calmly.
"Oh yes! I'm really sorry Mr Kumar. I was just kind of lost." He shrugged with a nervous smile. "And yes! Here's the file." He reached over to him, and the file was passed.
Mr Kumar signed on the papers, and then passed it to Darshan. He signed it and so did I. Finally the meeting was over, and we got the contract.

"Tumhe kya ho jata hai beech beech me?" I asked him, as he stood to leave.
"Sab tumhari galti hai! Ek to meri cheezo ko bina mer―"
"Ab please wo mat chalu karo!" I yelled as I stood to leave the room before he could.
"Nidhi ruko, kaha jaa rahi ho?" He stopped me.
"Ghar!" I said.
"Kyu?" He asked.
He's really out of his mind. He, just before the meeting, told me that after the meeting I can leave, because there wasn't any work. And now he's asking me why am I leaving?
"Tumhe hi to bola tha that I can leave if I want." I answered.
"Are ha, but itna jaldi? Abhi lunch karte hai na!"
"Lunch?"
"Ha! Mai aaj subha jab ghar gaya, to Maa aayi thi. Bohot time baad mila mai unse." He told me. He was so happy. "Bohot miss kar raha tha mai unko."
"Are waah, Darshan! I'm so happy for you."
"Maa ne nashta banaya tha. Late hogaya isliye pack karwa liya. Hum dono ke liye. Tum khaogi na, Nidhi?" He asked hopefully.
"Are, ye bhi koi puchne ki baat hai?" Maa ke haath ka khaana, kabhi miss mat karo. Because I know, how does it feels like, to be so far away from her.
"Ha chalo, mere office me jaate hai!"
*********
"Bohot tasty hai ye to! Umm..." I said as I savoured the meal. POHA!! All time favourite."Hai na? Tumhare misal se bhi zyaada na?" He teased.
"Ha!" I said the truth.
"Waise, I'll drop you ghar tak."
"Nah! It's okay, mai chali jaaungi."
"And tumhara pair kaisa hai? Dukh rha hai kya bohot?"
"Ha! Moch kam nai hua hai."
"Let's go!" He said, finishing his last bite.
"Kaha?"
"Doctor ke paas jaate hai."
"Are kyu?" I asked.
"Dinner karne, duh!" He said matter of fact.
"Par—"
"No, chalo! Get up or I'm gonna have to pick you up!" He argued.
"No No I'm coming." I agreed before he comes and pick me up.
A/N:
