Author's note-
Hey friends I am here again with a new story... And this time I have Something on Abhirika...
Firstly to mention I've got this idea from a story which I recently read...
Now Start reading...
" Flirting "
"Bus no. S145 chale gaye?" She breathlessly reached the bus stop & asked the man standing there..
He was taken surprise as if she has asked him for his wallet..after a pause he replied, "Nehi "…
She took a sigh of relief..as she came to her normal breathing rate, she asked again, " I see your tag..tum bhi Ardent Group(AG) me kaam karte ho?"
He replied " Ha kaam karta hu.."
His voice was strong but polite..dressed in neat formals ,well shaved and look like a well cultured man..
She quickly look into his fingers…no rings..All this was fine but the short answers..She thought if he was simple sigh by nature or just plain arrogant..She was not one of them who would give up easily…
So..she couldn't resist talking to him further.. …
"Hi..my name is Tarika,mei kuch din pehele AG join kia hai.." she extended her right hand hoping to involve him in a conversation..
"Oho..bohot accha laga ye janke.. I am Siddhart.." He renderd a rather weak handshake and did not bother to extend the conversation..
"Tum kaunsi depertment me ho Sid?... Mei tumhe Sid bula sakti hu na?" She continued moving closer to him..
Tarika's pov- Wow! He smelled really nice.. Agar ho sake to mei iske sath ek bar to date per jaungi..nei nei ek bar se jada…
"Mei training department mei hu..actualy mei waha ke coordinators me ek hu.." After a small pause " Aur haa tum mujhe Sid bula sakti ho.."
With those word he looked into her eyes for the first time..Once someone looks into her eyes , they got lost as if they are hypnotised by a magician..
The eye contact lasted for five seconds as it was abruptly ended by the arrival of the bus…
After that in the bus he was the one to restart the conversation..
"How about you Tarika? Tum Kaunsi department me ho? Aur hamare company ke bare me kaise pata chala?"
"Ye hui na baat.. ab aya na uuth(camel) pahar ke niche…meri ada and aankho ke chamak dekh ke bolne lage.." Tarika murmur under her teeth..
She gave him more details than he asked..about her department, work, collegues..and she didn't stop there..she also hinted that she was the girl to party with..
He listened with great interest but she could sense that he was a shy and quiet person..
Time is also heartless…both of them travelled almost ten kilometres for about thirty minutes… but for her it seems less than five minutes…
Both of them had started their day on a bright note and headed to the office…
….
….
….
After Tarika reached the office she went to her desk…being a new member she had very few responsibilities to handle..
She was almost through with her day's work within a few hours.. Her crazy mind was recollecting the time spent with Sid.. and her logical mind was telling that it would take more effort from her side to make things work…
Her trail of thoughts were disturbed by a loud voice from the corner of the room… she looked around to find what was happening…
A well built man with his shirt torn was walking out..he was involved in a argument with one of the staff member and had left the scene furiously…
Tarika was watching all this from her desk… He was very confused as if he didn't know where he wanted to go..Being an responsible employee she stepped in..
"Excuse me sir.. mei apka koi madat kar sakti hu?" she asked him..
"Uuum… Mujhe kuch nei pata.. samaj nei aa raha hai ki mei yaha kyu hu… yaha per Artist Association aisa kuch hai?" he asked..
Tarika was right..hewas confused.. even more than she thought..There was no mention of the event that took place minutes back.. so, she choose to carry on with the flow…
"Haan hai na..per iss office mei nehi… wo kuch blocks pehele hai ek.. agar aap chaye to mei apke madat kar sakti hu.."
"Oh! That's so sweet of you..mei Rohit monthly magazine ' The Sunshine' me column likhta hu.." he introduced himself by extending his left hand..
"Hello.. I am Tarika… Mei …" But before she could complete her sentence.. she was dumb stuck by their hand shake.. What a firm, confident and strong handshake..she could see the veins visible on his strong forearm.. either he is very angry or must go to gym regularly..
Returning from her senses she continued "Mujhe vi bohot acchi lagi apko help karke.. waise mei lunch ke lia bahar jaa rahi thi..So Rohit aap columnist ho? Aap kis Vishay per likhte ho?
Unwillingly she ended the handshake and walked with him towards the exit door..she had indirectly mentioned about having lunch as well.. She was curious to see if he was sharp enough to catch it…
" Jyadater Social affairs..Tarika.. hum issme aur bhi baatein kar sakte hai… lunch karte karte…" he replied with his left hand stretched to open the door for her… There was a smile on his lips which reads - you are so Gorgeous!
It was hard to believe that he was the same angry young man from a few minutes ago.. He took Tarika to an Indian restro…He asked her whether she was in hurry to get back in office..she assured that she was not..
They walked back all the way back instead of hiring a taxi..She left him at the Heritage Artist Association and returned back to her work…
…
…
…
After a rather eventful day , Tarika was sitting at her desk… Her wrist watch showed 7:10 p.m. She was waiting for her mobile to buzz..Usually its buzz between 7 to 7:05 p.m.. just then her phone beeped and a message appeared on the screen…'Tyair rehna jaan.. Mei 5 min me pouchta hu..'
Involuntarily a broad smile appeared on her face and she gave a flying kiss in reply…
Within five minutes the white Innova arrived.. She stepped in and kissed Abhijeet on his forehead…
"Tho aj ka din kaisa gaya mera princess ki?" He asked with the same enthusiasm, same undying love and same everlasting care as always…
"Wonderful Abhi..ghar jate waqt bahar se dinner ley ker chal te hai.. thik hai…" she replied..
" Haan ye thik rehega.. Humare pas time kaha hai aj cooking ke lia..ghar jake bohot kuch packing karna hai…Mei tho bohot excited hu hamare kalke trip ke lia… bohot din baad apne dosto se nei apne family se mulakat hoga…"
They stopped at a restro … Abhi order two meals for parcel..The person at the counter asked," Aaplog sath mei kuch drinks lena chayenge?"
Abhijeet replied " I will take Mango milkshake". He turned toTarika and asked" What about you , jaan?"
"Diet coke" She replied..
He ordered,"Mere lia ek Mango milkshake..aur ek Diet coke for my Wife… "
