My Tomboy Girlfriend

Chapter 31

It was a pleasant Saturday morning and Omkara was preparing a coffee for himself when his Firefly ringtone disturbed his peace.

"Yes, Mr. Shastri." Omkara spoke sipping his coffee.

"Sir, I arranged your lunch meeting with Mr. Sandler at 2 PM and then new project presentation by Mr. Harrison at 4 PM."

"Didn't I informed you already to plan my break time at 4, Mr. Shastri?" Omkara asked annoyed.

"Yes sir, but today's Saturday." Arjun said carefully.

"What does that have to with anything?" Omkara growled.

"Gauri don't have college today." Arjun said cautiously.

Ever since Omkara found Gauri fighting the bullies, it became his routine to drop Gauri and her college every morning and pick her up back every evening.

"Listen, Mr. Shastri, I asked to schedule my break at 4 cause, I wanted it. Not because of my immature neighbour, you better hold back your horses." Omkara said in a straight tone.

"Sorry Sir." Arjun said, "I will alter the schedule."

"Erm.. listen, Since you already arranged it, let's continue with the planned schedule today." Omkara deadpanned disconnecting the call.

"God, what's happening with me?" Omkara groaned walking inside the shower.

Ding-Dong

The doorbell rang, just after Omkara finished buttoning up his shirt.

"What's with people and always ringing my door bell." Omkara muttered irritated as he walked towards his door grabbing his dark grey coat.

"Omkara..." Gauri, who was standing in front of his door spoke as soon as he opened the door.

"What now?" Omkara asked cutting Gauri off.

"Can you take me to the movies, please." Gauri asked showing her big eyes.

"No." Omkara said in a straight tone making Gauri's face fall. "I have more important works to attend than waste my time watching movies."

"But you said... "

"Yeah, I said but right now I am busy."

"Okay." Gauri said in a dull tone, "Have a nice day, I will ask Danny." She said turning on her heel.

"No." Omkara almost shouted making Gauri turn around confused. "You are not going anywhere with that Danny guy, in fact you are coming to my office with me now."

"What will I do in your office Omkara." Gauri asked, "I will get bored."

"Don't you have any assignments?"

"I do have but... "

"Good, go grab your college bag, you can work on your assignments sitting in my office."

"But... "

"Now. Go." Omkara ordered making Gauri sprint inside her apartment to grab her backpack.

The rest of the day went by with Omkara handling his meetings and presentations while Gauri sat in the corner of his office working on her assignments.

"Omkara, can we go home now?" Gauri asked stretching her legs on the carpet.

"I still have some work to sort out." Omkara said without raising his head from the laptop.

"Okay." Gauri nodded and continued doing her assignments while Omkara began to secretly look at Gauri, while she was busy sketching the new designs for her assignments her brows furrowed with concentration, a pout on her plump limps.
