Maya and Sahir

Ye Dooriyan

Sahir is on the flight to Bombay. Since he's going to stay indefinite, he decided to complete many business ventures as well.
During the flight he decided its important Omega group opens more IT divisions across many cities in India. He also wants to expand several hotels and aim to get some oil deals.
It was also about time Viren is destroyed because no amount of warning is making him back off.

Viren has reached home after dropping Maya. In the past 2 weeks he's been working in India along with her, this is the first time they got to catch up and talk to each other. Maya appeared sad without Sahir and still recuperating from all the hurt. She seemed to have been trying to find solace with putting enormous pressure on herself with work. She looked thinner and pale from the last time he had seen her in Switzerland. But he knew she will recover. He just wanted to wait a little longer to ask her to separate from Sahir. To tell her he is waiting for her with open arms. He will be delighted to have her in his life. He will love her and cherish her all his life. His face lights up at the thought of Maya being by his side.

Maya is sitting at her home office desk trying to get clarity on how the work is shaping up. With all the recent episodes with Sahir, she couldn't give her best to her work. The main reason she had decided to quit her job was to help her father with work but her priorities just went for a toss post her marriage to Sahir. These past 6 months had derailed her aim and ambition in life. It was now time to rebuild her lost self confidence. Maya had developed ideas towards enhancing and revamping their existing business and some new verticals within the business. She now needed to sound them off with her father and Viren. Since Viren was trusting Maya with the investments, she couldn't let him down.

Viren and Nitin had gone for the site inspection and Viren was very happy and impressed with Maya's business model. If all went well, they could break even in 6 months or lesser. They were now headed to Maya's place for tea.

Sahir had landed in Bombay. His first destination was to check where Maya lived. She'd recently moved into her Mom's old place to spend sometime by herself. While her dad continued to stay with her brother's family. He understood why Maya needed time off. His recent behaviour towards her was nothing less than trauma to her. He knew he had to make amends. If he needed to fall on his knees to ask for forgiveness, Maya was worth it. This was the only woman who could make him do that. It had taken a lot of time for Sahir to realise and accept that love existed. That feeling when you see someone and you never want them to leave. That person having that power over you to control all emotions you feel. Sahir has started believing he could control everything happening in his life. He had figured it all out. Until he met Maya. He now knew she controlled him. Only he couldn't let Maya know this.

Viren was happy Maya had chosen him over Sahir for business discussion. It seemed she really didn't want to do anything further with Sahir. Hopefully this conflict in Maya's heart should end soon and I will be able to dwell a place for me in her life, he thought. It is not going to be easy, but then that's how life is right? And if it's about Maya, then he'd happily be a part of this battle forever.

Maya steps into the balcony to feel the humid warm air of Bombay. This heat has another story to tell if it's own. The weather here is so different from her everyday in London. Maybe her father was right, it will help her heal and come up with some right decisions. Life wasn't as binary as she wanted it to be. At times, we had to coexist with people who only lived in greys. On one side from her balcony she could view the sea. Enormous Arabian Sea. In front, was the closed road meant for walking area. A car came by and stopped. She could feel the engine killed. She was expecting someone to get off the car with dark tinted glasses but no one did. Could she see a silhouette of Sahir? Maybe she's just imagining. Brushing aside the thought, she continued to sip on her coffee. Her doorbell rang and she stepped into the living room. She opened the door to welcome Viren and her Dad in the house.
