"Dad, do you know where is 'Arlington Mall'?" Rajesh asks his father, as he finds himself scouting for dress. Suddenly the closet full of dresses which were fit for every purpose, was at loss of clothes for this occasion. Unable to explain why he was feeling this way about Pallavi, Rajesh just scans dresses over dress, clad only in his towel.

"Sure I know. It's situated at the place where you are going to meet your 'Girlfriend'" he replies mockingly from the dining hall.

"Dad I am being serious. Plus she is more of a client. She was also a part of our project with SIDCO. Integral one actually. So I thought of giving her a congratulatory treat." he answered from his room, dousing himself with copious amounts of deodorant.

"Well I was just joking. And I don't have a clue as to where your this 'Arlington Mall is' Mr. Khuranna replies as he makes his way into the kitchen with his empty tea cup.

"No big deal dad. I will check in Google maps." Rajesh replies as he slips into a pair of black skinny jeans. Owing to lot of full night coding, he has lost a considerable amount of weight. So slipping into the skinny jeans doesn't seem too much of a trouble. He takes out a sky blue shirt and swings it over himself. As he buttons up, he takes a quick look in the mirror.

'Hmmm, I am lean for a 24 year old. Need to put on some weight and muscle' he contemplates as he puts on his headband, to swipe back his long slick hair. For the past one year, since he has started with his own business, Rajesh had been letting his hair grow and he did succeed in his growing a lustrous lock. And it was all over the place thanks to his dedication to its maintenance. Usually he could care a least about combing his hair, but today is special and he spends around twenty minutes in setting right. He also slips a small comb in his back pocket for heaven's sake. He grabs his helmet, heads to the kitchen to inform his mother, gives her small peck on her cheek and heads down to his bike, which had thoroughly been washed the day before. He starts his bike and zooms away for the hour long journey to the mall.

Meanwhile, Pallavi rushes out from her washroom and heads to her door, wrapped only in her towel, water droplets dripping from her shoulders, her wet hair sticking to her neck. Since she did not make any plans with her roommate, she had the privacy of the whole room, with her roommate away at her hometown for the weekend. She takes out a simple Blue kurti and white leggings and spreads them on her bed. She grabs her hair dryer from her dressing table, which is neatly arranged with talcum powders and scents. She plugs the hair dryer and starts drying her hair. As she blow dries her hair, she feel little bad that she told the meeting place to be too close from her accommodation. For her it would take just 10 minutes to reach 'Arlington mall' and it would easily take an hour, that too if he had smooth ride without any traffic. Once her hair is dry according to her satisfaction, she drops her towel and takes a minute, admiring her own beauty in the full mirror. Standing at 5 feet 4 inches, she takes a deep look at her freckles, which start at her slender neck all the way up to her cleavage. She cups her bosom, her firm but soft and supple breasts. She runs her hand over her large, brown areola's, flicking her nipples. She then runs her hand over her almost fatless tummy, playing with her small flab of fat just below her navel. Slowly her hand moves to her hand to her nether regions. Stroking her bush, she turns around to pick up her floral bra and panty and puts them on. She then proceeds to slip into her kurti and leggings. She puts on little touch of make up and heads to the door.

"Five minutes to ten. Hope I don't get too late" she mutters under breath as she walks with a brisk stride.

Rajesh stops his bike just outside 'Arlington mall' main entrance. Lucky for him, traffic was light for him today and he was able to reach the mall in just 50 minutes. His trusty bike lived up to his prayers of not stopping anywhere, in spite of occasional use. He picks out his phone and dials Pallavi. She picks up in the first ring with a soft hello and asks whether he had reached the mall. He finds the concern in her voice and tells her that he had reached and assures her to take her time and come carefully and not to hurry. She just giggles and replies that she will be there in five minutes. He tell her that he is standing by his bike and shirt color, so that she can identify him from distance and hangs up the call. Thinking to get a cigarette, Rajesh decides to step towards the tea stall on the opposite side of the road.

'Wait. I am meeting her for the first time. Also it's not a professional meet per se. I guess i will have my cigarette later' he contemplates and retraces his steps back to his bike, fiddling with his mobile. He finds that Tarun had texted back, stating that he is doing ok now and is eager to start working from tomorrow. He tries to contact Neeraj, whose phone rings luckily but with no answer.

'Probably he his busy' Rajesh explains himself and keeps his phone back in his pocket.

"Hi" comes a soft voice.

Rajesh turns towards his side and the sight mesmerizes him to his core. His jaw drops open because of the beauty.

"I will take it that you like my dress and are pleased to see me" Pallavi replies with a slight smirk.

"You look amazing. You..lo..lo..looked amazing that day too. To..today you look more amazing" Rajesh stutters out.

"Really? Flirting from the moment you see me? Hmm. I must be little careful" Pallavi replies, cocking her head back.

"Well beautiful girls are meant to be flirted with" Rajesh replies, as he tries hard to keep a straight face, with sweat starting to form on his temples and forehead. Hearing the comment makes Pallavi feel like laughing hard, owing to the nervousness barely hidden in it. Seeing the sweat on his forehead, due to his hair held back from his headband, she goes crazy and starts laughing hard. Looking at her laughing, puts Rajesh in ease. He too joins in her laughter. After a couple minutes they mellow out.

"So Rajesh what have you planned today for me." Pallavi asks in a soft tone.

"I thought we could grab some coffee and some lunch too. And if you like we can go for a movie too. Or a drive too." Rajesh blabbers on, not realizing that he didn't give her anytime to process all his information.

"Wow. You sure go all the way Rajesh" Pallavi replies with a faint smile.

Rajesh only sheepishly grins for the reply.

"Ok. Lets grab some coffee first. Then we will decide whether to gor for movie or drive. Come on" sayin that, Pallavi turns around and heads inside the mall.

'I like her confidence' Rajesh contemplates as he walks behind her and ... catches up with her.
