Entangled {With Slaves Of Persia} (Book 2)

~ 15 ~

Rahul's P.O.V.....

I was listening to Kinjal and Meera's conversation, I could not stop myself from intruding in between them both. Back in my room, I was waiting for Meera to come back after lunch. The moment she entered, 'Miss Trivedi, what are you doing this Sunday?' I asked her.

'Nothing sir, will be at home!' she replied.

home..

'I thought you were living at a hostel' I asked her to find out.

'Yes sir I used to untill recently. Two days back I shifted to a PG accommodation at Green Park' she replied giving me the needed the information.

'Did you get your address updated?'  just like a stupid I kept on talking

blah...blah..blah...

'No sir, I did not know. I will get it updated soon' she said.

'Okay. I want you to be ready on Sunday morning by five, we have to go to Agra to inspect the land that our company has been planning on buying'

'Sunday sir?!'

'Yes just now you said you are free on Sunday and you know the details about that property, right? The company who's selling us the property will be available there on site on Sunday afternoon, I have to finalize the deal and also why do I have to give you an explanation? You do what I say. Am I clear?' I was firm in my questioning her so she does not say NO and I succeeded. She agreed to go with me to Agra.

why am i being so rude with her? when she's in front of me i'm rude while i'm unable to stay away from her for longer periods...the more i'm trying to go far way from her, the more i'm getting attracted to her....

I was too excited about my Sunday's programme. My excitement about Sunday's trip was just like an youngster. With a great difficulty, Friday passed and so was Saturday too. It was seven in the evening, I was at a restaurant discussing business deal with one of our clients that evening trying to pass my time too ' I would love to discuss further with you Mister Hitesh, but right now I have another appointment somewhere else' I told him.

'Okay Mister Rahul, I would love to hear from you as soon as possible about my proposal!' Hitesh said shaking hand with me and I walked out of the restaurant. It took me around thirty minutes to reach Green Park. I parked my car outside and climbed the stairs. Knocked the door and was setting my hair with my fingers when the doors opened.

'Yes sir, who do you want?' a middle aged woman opened the door and was asking me, meanwhile I heard another voice from behind her, 'Who's it Fatima?'

'I don't know madam!' she replied.
She's probably a maid working in this house.

'I am Rahul Oberoi, can I meet...' I did not even finish my sentence, I saw a woman coming to me saying, 'Rahul is that you?' she asked me in surprise and surprising me too.

how does she even know me?

'Yes ma'am, but how do you know me?' I asked her.

'Fatima, go get some juice for the boy...first get in Rahul' she said. I followed her into the living room that was very well decorated. My eyes were searching for the one I came there for.

'You are here for Meera right?' she asked me, while I was sitting on the big black couch 'You must be wondering how I know about you? I was looking at her in awe 'let me tell you that you  are always on TV, I saw you many times over the news about your projects and all! And Meera told me that she's's working at your office!!'

gosh..she knows so much..at least she cleared all my doubts....

I could say nothing, in fact she did not give me a chance to say anything, she continued.

'I even know your father, Vikram Oberoi, we both were classmates back in college...!'

I was feeling so embarrassed, how cum Meera chose to stay with this lady. I was trying to figure out if all this was just a mere coincidence or was it a well conceived plan to make me a pawn to use my weaknesses against my Company? My head was totally jammed with so many random thoughts. I did not even notice when the lady walked away from there. I was brought out of my thoughts when the maid came to me 'Sir, take the juice!' she said holding a big glass of juice in a tray.

'Thanks, I really need this' I said and picked up the glass. I emptied it in one gulp and placed it on the center table with glass top.

'Sir you need something?' I heard the sweet voice of Meera, I lifted my head to look at the beauty.

'What's this? Why are you not ready?' I asked Meera.

'Sir but we were supposed to go tomorrow morning, not tonight!' she answered standing in front of me like a school girl who was in her night dress.

'No, I mean Kinjal invited you to her Marriage Anniversary, right? Why are you not ready for that?'

'Geet said she won't be able to come and pick me up, so I cancelled my attending the party' Meera answered very innocently, where as she does not know that I was the one who called Geet and told her not to come here and the thought of that stupid action like a teenager made me smile but somehow managed to compose myself.

'That's alright, I am here now, go get ready' I said with deep joy inside my subconscious mind and was so happy looking at that innocent face of hers'. Meera walked back to her room with the owner too following her. I was a bit restless, unable to sit there anymore and got up to look at the pictures that were hanging on the walls, it was then I heard the conversation between Meera and the lady.

'No Aunty, I don't have anything nice to wear for the party. I don't want to go but who's going to tell my boss?'

'You don't worry about the dress, I have so many good dresses, I can lend you one!'

'No Aunty, I can't take anymore favour from you'

'If it was my daughter, she wouldn't say it's a favour, she would jump up in happiness if I told her to choose whatever dress she feels like from my wardrobe'

I then saw the door open with lady walking out of the room and she entered into another room, smiling at me. She was out of the room in five minutes holding something that I could not see since I walked back to the living room and sat there reading the newspaper. I kept looking at my wrist watch on and off while I read the paper. Twenty minutes passed by making me frustrated, i want to see Meera, talk to her...gosh.....how long will she take to come out?

My subconscious wish was overpowering me. i need to be careful now, i must not hurt her with my rudeness....

I tried to convince myself all the while waiting for Meera to get ready. I was getting desperate, not able to sit any further I was about to walk out to wait for her at the car--it was then the door opened and Meera walked out adjusting her hair and jewelry, she was looking gorgeous.



i cannot stay away from you my love..

The song  get down...get down...move it all around.....  by Backstreet boys was playing back in my head.

You are the one for me, you are my ecstasy, you are the one I need

Hey baby love I need a girl like you

but tell me if you feel it too

I'm in delusion every minute, every hour, my heart is calling out for you...

I feel the heaven when I look in your eyes, I know that you are the one for me..
