Caroline - Okay Where the hell were you yesterday?

Nanz - umm Home?

Caroline - Seriously Nanz?

Nanz- What? What's wrong? Was I suppose to be somewhere else?

Caroline - Yes you were suppose to be at office but guess what you were not so tell me where were you? And where was this imaginary meeting of yours cause nobody in your team even have slightest bit of idea about it.

I smiled sheepishly at her, well she look pretty pissed off. Of course she would be, I ran away from Zenith and then never returned. I needed some time off to clear my head so after chit chatting with Belle. I went home and turned off my phone so nobody could call me. Bad move I know now I have to face Car's wrath. Save me this time Aiyappa.

"I am asking you something Nanz?" She folded her hands on her chest and gave me one of her famous stern look that demands nothing else but the truth. "Well I wasn't feeling well so I went home to take a small nap but it stretched quite a lot so couldn't make it back here. And that meeting actually was with one of my Father's acquaintance, he just needed some legal advice so that's why nobody knows anything about it. Yeah That's pretty much it.."

She was looking at me like she hardly believe my story but then she huffed in annoyance. "Fine, now please get back to work, you haven't even started on the Malhotra's case. I Have shared all the relevant docs with your team go brief them." And my eyes literally pop out of my socket. What the hell is she saying, isn't she the one who is going to handle this case. "What are you talking about Car, why will I brief my team, you need to brief yours right?"

"No, of course not don't you know I already have two big clients in my kitty with the ongoing court cases, I can't focus on another Nanz and right now you don't have anything going on So I am sure you can focus on this.." She smiled and I felt like running away from here. "But.." before I could protest again she cut me off.. "No Buts Nanz, See you know that I hate that Michaelson guy and I am swooning over this Malhotra that is not a good point. So please you handle this Okay and Nanz please concentrate this client is very important for our Firm's future so please don't mess this up babe please.." 

And that shut me up. I am not alone in this firm, I can't be selfish. Yes Nanz you can do this I mean come on that Malhotra doesn't bother you. His face, his presence even his voice nothing matters. You just have to be professional stick to your work. Do as required and that's it. Just this one case Nanz, you can do this. You have to, for Car, for our mates, for this firm Yes Nanz you can do this. Oh Aiyappa please be with me please.

I was watching Tangled lying on the couch with my Dad. Today both Mom and Dad were at home for Dinner and Mom was busy in kitchen from two hours preparing something special. Her love for cooking is still there, I scold her a lot and ask her to rest as she hardly gets time due to her hectic schedule but she never listens. Today also she was busy in preparing a feast or something. But my tummy is going to be happiest today.

It's been few days since I met Manik, Thank goodness we never met again but Yes I am working on his case. Strangely he didn't tried to contact any of us to get the updates regarding the case. I should be happy that just like me, he is also avoiding me but I am not. Oh Boy, he loves to play mind games with me. I just so hate him. I know he is living in his old house, I guess his parents are not here, I miss them though. They were great Diana and Raj. I really love that couple but just because of him I have to distance myself from them. And then they never return or maybe they did when I was in Howard.
