Saahil POV

I am living a life, which every man would have dreamed off. In personal front, I have lovely parents and a naughty little sister Sanaya. In professional front, at the age of 28, I own a company whose annual turnover is 1000 cr. Everyone is stunned by the growth of the (Malhotra & Sons Pvt Ltd) company after my father (Mr Satish Malhotra) step down from the post of CEO and allowed me to take the lead. I am glad that I have just made him proud.

Its Friday night, all my friends are partying and they are calling me to meet them up but I dint think so I can make it to the party because I have to crack this deal with the London based T&J Software Company and I don't want to get late so I have left early from my office around 5.30 I have to reach by 8 p.m. at The Palladium, Lower Parel and currently I am stuck in traffic near my office at Mindspace, Malad.

Even in such chaos, I do not know what I am feeling at the moment. I could not just put a finger on it whether is it just the nervousness before to the crack deal or whether I want to make a good impression on them. If I get this deal, it would be a huge opportunity for our company to mark internationally. I have also promised my employee that I will give bonus to each people working for our company because all of them have worked hard to create this app. The app is about allocating people vacant parking space based on the location. We had done all the testing and I feel that initial download will be more than a million.

Its almost 7.30 p.m., I have already prepared for my presentation and now I just have to give my best shot. I was waiting for the lift, I was waiting for the people to get out and I was just wondering so many people in a lift then I realised it's Friday night and its palladium one of the happening place in Mumbai. Finally I got in and there was this girl who was getting out in hurry that she just dashed my arm and due to that impact she dropped her shawl. She was is in such hurry that she dint even bother to pick it up or even apologize to me. How clumsy I thought for a second. I accidentally stepped on it and after realizing that I picked it up and when I turned back the lift door was closing I put my hand and it opened but before I could call her she was gone. I could not even see who she was. I picked up the shawl. It was beautiful turquoise colour and so soft just like feather. Being a guy, I know its weird that I know the colour but as you know I have a little sister who is obsessed with this colour and she keeps on demanding turquoise colour teddy, tops, bags, dress and god knows what all. Coming back to my sense, I told the lift guard to give it to lost and found. The lift guy gave me a look and said its not our duty sir as you have found it you only give it to the counter. I scoffed as I dint have the time to go as the meeting will start soon. I thought once the meet is done I will go and give. I folded the shawl and kept inside my bag.

I reached before time and there they were already sitting in conference room. This hotel was beautiful which had a banquet hall and for official uses conference and boardrooms. I have booked the whole hotel for today as I did not want any disturbance. My manager, Mr Prasad Das, was already there and then he did the formal introduction to Mr Timothy Morgan and Mr Jose McGregory. Both were the partners of the firm T&J Software Company. We had a chat and then after few minutes of formal introduction they told me they are ready for my presentation.

I opened my bag and there was this very sweet fragrance I could not make out what is it all about and all of sudden my attention moved to that shawl which I found in the lift and I was having flashback in the middle of this meet. My thoughts were interrupted by Mr Morgan asking if I was okay and I just nodded and I don't know why I could not just forget that sweet fragrance.
