His Innocent Princess (The Untold Story of A Cursed Love)

Worry of a Father

Worry of a Father...

“Stop worrying Om. Tanmay is a responsible man. He can take care of Ragini well.” Abhijeet Maheshwari assured his best friend who was still worried over his daughter’s well being.

“What to do Jeet? You know how Ragini is right? She doesn’t get along with people easily. Tanmay wants to take Ragini out on a lunch date tomorrow and with her condition I don’t think it’s a good idea. What if something bad happens to her?”

“He is aware of her condition isn’t he?” Abhijeet inquired.

“Ofcouse he is.” Omkar Thakur answered immediately.

“Then what’s the problem. I’m sure he will take care of her. We should give him an opportunity to prove himself. This lunch date would give them a chance to get to know each other before their engagement ceremony.”

“Fine.” Omkar Thakur sighed in resignation.  “Well enough about me you tell me what’s going on with you. I heard the New York project was a success. Sanskar is quite hard working huh?”

Abhijeet rolled his eyes at the mention of his son before replying, “God knows what’s going on in his life. Always acting stubborn.”

“Just like you.” Omkar Thakur teased.

“It’s not that. Sometime I feel like he is hiding things from me. My own son seems like a mystery to me.”

“Then try talking to him. Spend some father-son bonding time I guess.” Omkar suggested.

“He will not agree. Already he is busy with the City Z project.” Abhijeet replied.

“Atleast give it a try.”

“Hmm” Abhijeet Maheshwari finally conceded. ‘I  should also try to understand Sanskar right? Maybe we can sort out our differences this way.’ He thought to himself.

Sanskar was about to walk out of the conference room when his iPhone beeped indicating the receival of a message.

‘Trilogy club. Be there around 11:00 pm. Got something to discuss.’

Sanskar raised a brow in curiosity at the text from his best friend. Knowing Aditya it must be something important.

“Do I have anything else in my schedule?” He inquired with Mr. Khanna who was standing one step behind.

“No sir.”

"Have you checked the construction    site?”

“Yes Sir. The work is going on smoothly.”

Sanskar looked at his watch that displayed 10:45 pm.

“You can go now. It’s going to be a very busy day tomorrow. This City Z project is crucial for us.” He instructed before heading out the building.

Trilogy club was buzzing with music when Sanskar entered. He scanned the crowd looking over for Aditya.

Spotting his best friend at the bar he manoeuvred his way to the guy.

“A tequila.” He ordered to the bartender before taking a seat beside Aditya.

“Who says being a boss is easy. Look at you working till late every night.” Aditya commented as he looked at his best friend sipping his tequila.

“Whatever.” Sanskar rolled his eyes in response. “I’m sure you didn’t call me here just to taunt me.”

“I need a favour.” Aditya muttered straight to the point.
