The Angel Vs The Devil

Chapter 14 - Mera Maahi Bada Sona Hai

Singhania Construction Company – Mumbai

It has been 2 weeks. 2 week when Raghav saw Kalpi at his company’s cafeteria, 2 weeks when Raghav first saw Kalpi at Rohan’s company, 2 week when Raghav stalked Kalpi at the office, 2 weeks in Raghav going crazy. Ragahv had no idea what to do, all he did was drink….and drink some more. “ Raghav, Rohan is on his way for the contract meeting “ Sammy said as he entered his cabin, Raghav nodded his head and sat behind his desk and waited. After 20 minutes, Rohan entered his cabin with Kalpi on tow. They exchange politeness and started with their meeting, “ Raghav, I think you have got what I have envisioned all this time. Isn’t that right Kalpi ? “ Rohan asked, Kalpi just nodded and continued looking at the proposal is front of her. Kalpi was aware that Raghav was staring at her. Just then Pakhi walked in, “ Sir….. – “ Pakhi sid looking at Rohan and Kalpi who were smiling, “ Oh my god…..Kalpi….Rohan “ Pakhi said as he hugged both of then tightly. Rgahv cleared his throat “ You two know each other ??  “ Raghav asked pointing at Kalpi and Pakhi, “ Oh yes, Kalpi is my sister “ Pakhi replied, Kalpi looked at Raghav from under her lashes. The shock in his face was epic. Sister……Kalpi……Pakhi…….sister ??? That’s all Raghav could think about, “ Raghav…..you ok ? “ Sammy asked as he shook Raghav, “ yes….I’m fine “ Raghav said in a tight voice.

Kalpi just shook her head and smiled. After an hour of discussion, the meeting finally ended . Rohan shook Raghav’s hand and left. Kalpi just smiled and said bye to Sammy and Pakhi, completely ignoring Raghav. “ don’t they look so cute ? “ Pakhi asked Sammy loud enough to let Raghav hear.  Sammy just nodded and followed Pakhi out of Raghav’s cabin. Raghav felt jealous seeing Rohan and Kalpi together, he sat heavily and rubbed his aching head, “ what wrong with me “ he asked himself. Just then his phone rang, “ hello ? “ , “ hello beta…how are you ? “ Gauri asked on the other line, “ I’m fine mom “ Raghav said is a heavy tone, “ are you sure ? “ Gauri asked again “ yes mom. I’m sure. What is it you called for ? “ Raghav asked again, “ oh…well…. My very good friend ‘s daughter is getting married and tonight is her sangeet ceremony and she has invited both of us…now I don’t care, but you have to come “ Gauri said. Sighing “ fine what time ? ok I’ll be there “ Raghav said as he hung up. “ I need coffee “ he said as he got up and headed to the cafeteria.

Kalpi was sitting and having a cup of coffee and waiting for Pakhi. After the meeting, Kalpi managed to get a few hours off of work to meet Pakhi and talk, even though both girls live together, because of her hectic schedule, she always comes back late and leave early for work. Kalpi was just flipping through her phone when Raghav walked in looking all tensed. He had not seen her, yet, smiling Kalpi just went back to her phone until she heard the chair beside her being pulled out. Looking up she smiled and looked at Raghav. 

 Raghav was waiting for his coffee when he spotted someone familiar. Taking a closer look, he saw that it was Kalpi. She was looking at her phone, totally ignoring him. Feeling the anger nearing, he grabbed his coffee cup and made his way to her table. He loudly pulled the chair out beside her and sat down heavily. She then looked up and smiled at him. Staring at her Raghav asked “ what are you doing here ?? “, “ waiting for Pakhi “ Kalpi answered calmly, placing her phone on the table and taking  sip of her coffee. Still staring, Raghav asked “ how do you know Rohan Dutt ? “. Kalpi looked at him amused at his question, “ why do you want to know ? “ Kalpi asked. Raghav was getting annoyed, “ just answered the bloody question “ Raghav said tightly. Kalpi was amused at his reaction. “ who he is to me and how I know him, is my business not yours Mr. Singhania “ Kalpi said challenging. Raghav clenched and unclenched his hands. Kalpi saw his hands and smiled. Their eyes interlocked for a second until Kalpi broke the contact and looked a way “ Excuse me, I have to go “ Kalpi said breathlessly as she stood up quickly and hurried to the cafeteria door.  She took one last look at Raghav and headed out.
