Unintentionally Yours

Chapter 5: Blooming love and hatred

*Iliyana*

The next morning waking up early was difficult, since I couldn't sleep till 3 in the morning. The thoughts of marriage and uncertainty of the situation fed my insomnia.

All I wanted to do was curl up in the bed and spend the whole day napping and doing nothing. But I had work today. I am supposed to meet him at his company. This scared me as well as excited me. It's time for buisness and I don't mix the business with my personal life. It's time to see what Arman is made up of.

That single thought chased the remaining sleep in me, filled with curiosity I dressed and left home, grabbing a small sandwich which I will eat in the car. I had new ideas, I wasn't sure if my plan works, if it works both out companies will be benefited.

I can't let my emotions rule. I have to convince them, by hook or by crook. They have seen the pleasant side of me yesterday. Today they are up for surprise. I am not sure if they care and accept me with for who I am, or change their opinions today.

I don't want to keep them in dark. I want them to see the real me, before they confirm our proposal. The whole ride I was thinking about the outcomes and possibilities. To distract myself I started overlooking the presentation I made, as soon as dad suggested about collaborating the buisness.

After an hour of impatient journey we finally reached their office. The office was not extremely large. It was just a small building with 4 floors. It screamed simple and elegance. I can see Arman's mom has contributed with the ideas. Typical underground parking with ground floor as helping desk and reception. The insides were murky brown and cream coloured, with matching leather furniture to give it a sophisticated look.

I approached the receptionist and introduced my self, I had my P.A and secretary following behind me,

"Hello I am Iliyana Syed. I have an appointment with Mr. Arman khan. Will you please guide me to his office."

"Oh! Of course mam! We were expecting you. Sir is waiting for you. I will take you there by myself. Please follow me."

"Thank you."

Arman's office was in second floor. As soon as we reached the floor Armaan's secretary welcomed us. And took us to his office.
After the second knock we heard a response and entered his office.

Like his personality his office was bright and lively. With light blue and silver walls. Large window, which was the reason for the lighting in the room. He had some pictures of his family and friends on the shelf.

There was one picture with him standing behind a beautiful and gorgeous woman and holding her close to him. That caught my attention. You can see the look of love and admiration there. The sight filled me with uneasiness and some guilt. But I had no time to dwell more on it.

My attention was soon occupied the owner of the office.

"Hello Iliyana. Please welcome. It's good to see you again."

"Good morning, Mr. Arman, it's good to be here. How are you today.?"

"I am good. Just have lot of appointments and work."

"Oh! Then let's not waste more time and discuss the buisness."

"Yes please. Take a seat. This is my Secretary Kiran. She has worked with me from the beginning. And also a very good friend of mine."

"Hello Kiran. It's nice meeting you. Let me introduce my P.A Sharon and Secretary Aman. They both have worked with me from abroad. "

After the basic introduction we started discussing the buisness. I let him initiate first.
