******************************

As usual I reached office early and wished the one who are cleaning the floors.

I entered my cabin and switched on the lights but I was quite surprised to find something on my desk.

A rose bouquet with the teddy bear.

I took that and checked if there is any note attached. But didn't find any.

I guess someone misplaced this!

This can't be for me, Who will gift me?

Only one name popped up in mind but I shrugged the feeling.

Wait a minute, only I and Akash Bhai has keys for my cabin then who unlocked and kept this?

Once Akash Bhai comes I will inform him, may be this is for him.

I kept that on the couch and started my work but my eyes used to move towards the teddy bear and mainly red roses.

Why am I feeling that I know who has sent this.

Red is his favourite color.

He can't be here right?

*************************************

Anjali " Payal, don't worry your Dadi will be fine"

Payal " Hope so Di, pata nhi achanak se kya hogaya, may be due to stress."

Anj " Chote has talked to main doctors u don't need to worry about that. We will go to hospital tonight to check on them together okay?"

She nodded.

Pa " I don't know how to thank you all, I was so heartbroken yesterday. If ASR didn't help me with doctors then it would have been difficult to monitor dadi ma by superior doctors"

I side hugged her.

Shyam " also Payal get me the documents of your property which your parents has in your name. I will check the legal papers and I can help you out if  your relatives has taken any property that belongs to you illegally"

She was about to open her mouth to thank us but Shyam ji fed her laddo.

I smiled at them.

I am also feeling slightly better now, but still I am worried about dadima. I shouldn't have forced dadi to come to temple that day. She told me she is not feeling well but I wanted to take her with me as I had organized Pooja on chote's return.

Shyam " where is Saalesaab?"

I sighed.

Anj " either chote will be in hospital next to dadi or he will be in office working day and night for some important tender, I heard something about Chopra's tender. If not calling me and asking how I am feeling. I am worried about his health. He has just drown himself in work by not eating or resting properly. Not listening to my words at all"

Shyam " Payal atleast u talk to him. He might listen to you as you are his friend"

She chuckled.

Pa " Do you think he will listen to my words Shyam jiju? if he doesn't listen to Di's words then he will not listen to anyone"

Anj " I know someone to whom he listens"

P " who?"

Both looked at me confused.

Only she can get my chote back to normal.

When will chote bring Kushi to us?

*************************************

Ak " well done Kushi, I guess this is final. We are good to give presentation to Chopra's. As we will reach early may be based on our conversation we can even modify before finalizing "

I nodded slightly feeling happy that he liked my work.

Kavitha " I have mailed you both regarding flight tickets, what should I do next week? I mean I... It would have been better if I also join, you might need me as your PA right? Others will come with their PA's and it doesn't look good if you don't have one"

Ak " u come or not will remains same"

Ka " what?"

Abhi " arey Kavitha, he meant that you will be of no use"

Ka " don't talk to me like that"

Ak " enough now, you both carry on with your works and Abhi kindly recheck with Kushi regarding the projects she is handling. Our return may be delayed"

Delayed?

What does he mean?

Ab " offcourse sir "

He wiggles his eyebrows at me.

I can never understand this Abhi.

From morning he is smiling more.

Kushi " sir I need half day leave"

He was confused for a while then a knowing look passed.

Ak " I can ask kaka to drive u there"

K " no sir, it's fine"

His one look made me shut my mouth.

**************************************

I entered the orphanage but I saw the workers taking big boxes and going inside.

What's happening?

I went near the boxes kept and saw the paper sticked to it.

To Shathi Orphanage,
From your super cool daughter and sister Kushi...

I took few steps back.

What?

Shanti " Kushi "

I turned back.

S " there was no need of so many sweet boxes beta"

Me? When did I send these?

K " ye sab"

S " ha... Even I was quite shocked seeing the message on it and by looking at the sweets delivered I got confirmation it is from you only jalebi queen"

As someone called she went out stating me to wait here.

I saw everyone eating jalebis.

I took one and ate, this taste I can't miss.
It's from the favourite stall which I will bring few times to orphanage kids.

I turned around and saw the kaka who is the owner of the stall.

Kaka " Kushi bitiya, you won lottery?"

Ku " kaka vo"

Kaka " i was shocked when I got order from you that we have to deliver these many boxes"

I gave order? What is happening?

Is there any other Kushi? But only I am crazy about these jalebis.

Ku " Kaka, can you exactly tell me who called you and gave order?"

Kaka " ha a man called actually. You know earlier i was not able to understand his words. Vo toh kuch jyada angrez bol raha tha. Phir he spoke very slowly and told someone will come and collect everything from me and will deliver the amount also. He specifically made sure that fresh sweets should be made."

Amount?

Kushi " kaka he did online payment?"

Atleast I can get his number or UPI transaction.

I can check anything if I get the clue on this stalker.

He knew more about me.

He has my cabin access, he know I like jalebi, he knew about my favorite stall, orphanage.

Kaka " No beta, someone came and gave cash to me saying he is your friend, I didn't see his face clearly."

I smiled at him and again looked down at the paper -

To Shathi Orphanage, From your super cool daughter and sister Kushi...

Flashback -

Shanti " Kushi, you are spoiling them. Sometimes they won't listen to my words only. All they want is their Kushi di"

Kushi " I am their super cool sister"

Yes, everyone cheered.

Shanti ma sighed.

Kushi " don't worry Shanti ma, I am your super cool daughter"

She patted my cheeks and looked at Arnav who was staring me.

I raised my eyebrows at him while he rolled his eyes.

Shanti " you are my super cool daughter and for kids u r their super cool sister but who are you to him?" she whispered which thankfully he didn't hear and I didn't reply.

End of flashback....

I looked at the jalebi in my hand.

Is he really here?

What if he comes in front of me now?

Will he say his reason for disappearance?

What should I do?

Dhak Dhak...

Dhak Dhak...

Dhak Dhak...

I started searching here and there but couldn't find him.

Someone tapped my shoulders and I jerked immediately.

Kaka " beta, why are you looking scared?"

Ku " No kaka, I am fine"

Kaka " actually, now i remembered that the person who gave me amount left this envelope and went"

I took from his hand.

I thanked him and he left, after opening the packet I saw his beautiful handwriting...

I can recognize his handwriting, I feel as if he is saying this in front of me and heart symbol made my vision blur.

I am sorry, Try to forgive me but never forget me 💞

I hugged the envelope.

Rabba ve... Rabba ve...Rabba ve Rabba ve
