"What was the need to go leaving you family Khushi? Your babuji did not want to send, now why all this? Why did I have to shout at her? I couldn't even talk to her properly." He fisted his hand angry at himself,.. later dialled a number ...


"Yes Aman, that's exactly what I am asking. When is my ticket booked for the meeting?"


Aman sure was having a gala time knowing how desperate his boss was now to go to London. His boss, who always had things under his control was desperate. Why did this always happen when Khushi was involved, he thought. After Anjali had told him about Khushi's visit to London, Aman knew what his next task would be and sure enough, the request was made!!


"Sir, It is after 4 days, precisely Thursday night, The meeting is on Monday, but because of new year the flights are all booked up and this is the latest I could get" promptly replied Aman, "What the, why is the meeting next week? Can we not have it earlier?"

Well, well, This desperate, thought Aman, but replied politely, "Sir, I will check with the clients and get back to you"

No sooner had he ended the call, another ASR called Aman, while Aman was busy rescheduling the meeting. "Oh, brother and sister will not leave me alive!!" sighing he received the call "Yes Anjali ji, what can I do for you?" was his no nonsense tone, to which Anjali jovially replied,..

"Mind coming out for a coffee?"

His phone nearly fell from his hands, but soon regained his senses and remarked, "Sorry, did you say coffee"

Pretending as if she was offended, Anjali replied, "Why Aman you cant come for a coffee with me..?" Of course he could not see her puppy face, but he had known her enough to imagine her beautiful puppy face. He too turned from his professional tone to a casual tone

"Anjali, anytime, anything for you. Go on, tell me when, where I will be there"..

Anjali wasn't expecting this flirty Aman, feeling shy, "What about tomorrow lunch time?", before she could continue, "Anjali you know your brother, his priorities keep changing every second. I am already at his task now. If it is urgent, I can meet today or tomorrow after work.."

Anjali asked, "Oh this Chote is too much sometimes. What work has he given you on a weekend?"

"He wants to have his London meeting earlier and I am checking if its possible" replied Aman..

Now it was Anjali's turn to drop the receiver!!! Shocked Anjali "What, is that what he is doing? Oh my God, I think what is happening is true, Ok Aman, lets discuss over phone itself, go on Aman,..." Aman could not understand what she was talking..

Sitting comfortably in Aman's house, Anjali exclaimed, "Aman where have I been? I have missed out all that you have said. Honestly I have been blind trying to match La with ASR and both have been so slack, I am now fed up. But with what you tell me, I better forget about that. But how do we make them realise!!" Anjali complained when Aman had explained all that had happened between ASR and Khushi ever since she had fallen into his arms. Aman had insisted Anjali to visit him as it was easy to discuss without much disturbance.

"Anjali, leave them alone, they will find a way, yeah we can try and push them to be together, let them first realise atleast.." calmly replied Aman, enjoying his coffee.

Anjali mused over what Aman said and tried to enjoy her ginger tea made by Aman's mum.

(Dear all, I have no plans to hook Anjali so soon, but she can go out for coffee as friends,.... Let her be free of all relations for a while at least!! She needs some friends outside RM and probably AR too.. What say?? Or do you want me to ??)
