SAKTHI'S POV

"After three months of our marriage this is my first meeting in outdoor. This time I have to leave the country. I don't know how I am going to convince my partner",I said with a question mark to my colleague,Vineeth. "I don't know how my partner is going to react?",I asked knowing the answer.
  
        "Why are u sad sakthi ? U guys hardly speak to each other
Then it is going to be easy to say neither u guys miss each other nor stop each other's dreams from coming true. U both respect each other's dreams&emotions then just go and say it. It is ur dream to go to New York and attend this meeting. No one is going to stop you. U should be worried only about the presentation u are going to give in New York",Vineeth advised me.
   
Sakthi's POV
        Vineeth is my very good friend since I joined this office he understands my situation. He is the only person in this world with whom I could share everything about marriage life and complications related to it.

Vineeth shook me when I was lost in chain of thoughts he brought me back into reality. We were in canteen he ordered my favourite green tea and looked at me. I gave him a smile.

      It was 6:00 pm when I returned from office. I placed my bag in table and took the offer letter ,wrote a note and kept it in the table and peeped to see whether anyone is there. When I found no signs of human I went into the room and got myself freshen up.
   
   I relaxed myself on couch. I took my phone and found lots of messages appreciating me. But my eyes caught the message from special one. 'special one' I think I am in love with the my so called room partner.
        
      There was a voice message stating that "I am stuck in important meeting it will be late.
I guess I will reach by 11pm Don't wait for me have dinner."

        Another voice message from my Head office stating that my meeting is preponed and I have to leave for flight by 9 Pm.

           What the hell is it? How can I ? I picked my contacts and called Vineeth. His phone was busy. Then I called my LOVE this is what I saved on my phone.
     
Tring....tring......THE NUMBER U R DIALLING IS CURRENTLY BUSY.

     Don't lose hope sakthi call again. THE NUMBER U R DIALLING IS CURRENTLY SWITCHED OFF. PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER.

          Switched off? This is not new. Ok let me pack my things. After a long tiring packing mission.
I came out looked at the clock it was 8:45pm
The cab arrived and got in the cab. It is only one week sakthi u will be back and u r going to confess  ur love don't lose hope.

It was 9:15 when I reached Airport I looked at the flight details in screen and searched for Vineeth. He was standing and playing with his kids and I went near him and greeted his wife.

"The flight is late by 15 minutes the flight is at 9:45",Vineeth said more like a news.

I nodded with a smile and sat in the waiting seat.

Someone shook me up and I woke with thought of feeling my love's presence around myself. I am just missing my love I said and turned around to see my colleagues asking me to go for checking. I got up and picked my stuff and got into the queue.

I looked at my watch and tilted to see how long the queue is and again looked at my watch it is half an hour I am standing in queue. Finally I got my bags and files checked. My phone is vibrating and I could see the photo of my love in phone screen &I swiped left and looked at the officer. "This is not the right time", saying to myself.

Officer: May I know ur name please!

Sakthi:I am MRS.SAKTHI ABHIMANYU.

ABHIMANYU his name my lips said and brought a blush in my face. Loved it so say it repeatedly.
I answered few usual questions and I boarded my flight and reached New York.

It is after a week when I reached India I went to my house to see Abhi ,my love

When I entered I found my house so clean and only my things all over the place I ran into my bedroom. I found a letter in my table. I took it in my hand and realized that he left me two days before. I chose career over him and he chose his colleague over me.

      
Is this what my love is capable of? I shouted in rage. I threw things all over here and there. After several months of fighting through my emotions and feelings I decided to stand up for myself.If he can reject me I can reject him over my career.

   More than my love my dreams and career came first and I need to prove myself and save my dignity and I will make him feel worse for choosing someone else instead of me.

I threw the ring that  I brought for him and took my next step towards my dream.

Now it is just Sakthi Raichand
