I came out of the restroom as I washed my hands to see Advith looking at some file and saying Jenny something and she was scribbling fast in her notepad as he was saying. He glanced at me and raised his brows at me as I am staring at them. I nodded nothing and took a seat in the couch getting I am staring at him for long.
"Ms. Jenny, I want it in my table by ten tomorrow. You are free to leave for tonight!" Advith said as he looked at the time and I saw it's already eight. She looked at me and then at him, nodding a little left as he gave a raised brow. He had a amused smile in his face.
"So?" He asked as he came and took a sit in the three seater couch next to my two seater couch or I am sitting in his couch and looking at his drawings.
"This is nice!" I said looking at his picture pointing the playground area he is drawing. He raised the brows at me.
"Thank you! Just that area or the whole?" He asked amused at me.
"Whole thing, but this is cool. I love the garden or park usually!" I said and he nodded at me. He was about to say something. His desk phone rang and he said Jenny to connect to whomever that called, he started speaking with them and was saying that he need him to send the materials in a week and he don't like wasting time. He also asked him to take the job serious or he have to think about what to do next. And it strike my heart too much than needed. Later, I stopped hearing his conversation.
"Why are you working even this late, Advith?" I asked at him. He gave me a raised brows shrugging it's nothing great. I asked him again.
"Cause, I don't want to avoid my responsibilities!" He said as he looked at my eyes.
"But, the work hour is over na? And why you all are working and not enjoying your off hours? Do you love your work that much?" I asked sulking a little at whatever and I saw him sitting next to me in the sofa.
"Its not about workhours, Sarah! It's all about the work!" He said looking at the desk as I was looking at him.
"Huh?"
"I like my job! That doesn't mean I don't have life outside it. I work when I have work, other time I too be lazining around."
"I didn't see you lazing around at all? You work always!" I said and he laughed a little.
"What you think I am doing now?" He asked as he rested his head on the couch backrest.
"Working! Even when you called me to have dinner!" I said angrily and he only laughed a little.
"Oh! I see." He said as if he is thinking something.
"See even when you are speaking with me, you are thinking something looking at that drawing!" I said and he smiled at me.
"I am thinking, how you could think I was working? When I was clearing talking with you and lazing around. Is it because we are still in the office?" He said and I looked at him confused.
"From five days now is The deadline for the project submission. I still wouldn't bring a good design nor the outline while I should have finished it by last week as per our plan. Still, I am lazing around and speaking with you when I should be doing the job." He said looking at the drawing sheet. I kept a hand on the sheet, I saw him look at my hand and didn't say anything.
"If I had finished my work on time, I wouldn't be working over time. Like Umar, like madan I would have been somewhere else too. I may took you somewhere out for the dinner too, it's my mistake to not complete the work in time and not the job! It never asked me to do overtime and it's me dragging it!" He said looking at the drawing, smiling a little as if he still wouldn't find answer to something.
" It's doesn't matter if you work no time or long time, work done is all that matters!" He said as I felt him look at me. I raised my brows at him and saw him meaning it. Is he?
"You mean it's my second lesson?" I asked and he just smiled.
"If you learn it!" He said simply as if he is assessing me. What should I learn?
"Whatever!" I said and he just chuckled a little.
"What's wrong in this? I feel it is good!" I said and he just smiled at me showing him his own drawing.
"Have you forgotten the first lesson already?" He asked smiling a little. I looked at him.
"I remember it well, never underestimate the other person!" I said glaring at him.
"Lesson learnt meant not just remembering it young lady, you should able to put your knowledge in action!" He said looking at me as he took the sheet in his hand as I am giving a confused look.
" zayan and Dev or David are not to be underestimated, same way there are going to be many other competitors too." He said and I smiled as where he is going.
I don't know about other things, I do know Ranvir, shruti, Imran, zayan and Dev are working their heart in this project as none of us want to loose. And that maybe same with others too.
"So, I see you have a drawn a big building. Care to explain it, I am bit weak with architect knowledge?" I asked seeing the drawing wanting to just speak around and not to be silent. As I just escaped to avoid the silence.
"Even then judged it's good?" He said smiling a little making me to smile too.
"I can be good counsellor, you know I am going to be a doctor na?" I said and he narrowed his eyes at me. "Take my free offer, before I cost you!" I said and he only laughed as I started hearing him explain me the drawing he made.
"Fifteen floors? Is it a work place? Its going to home for those who are going to live in it, Advith!" I said and he looked at me as I stopped him.
"I never said other way!" He said me back.
"There are many that are afraid of heights, Advith. Think how would a family with kids feel when they are living in the fifteenth floor?" I asked and he just looked at me confused.
"They couldn't let the kid even roam around the home in the fear what if he fall down. That if automatically not going to give him feel at home effect. I can't say you build individual apartment to all people. But, If I want to buy a apartment , I could love a apartment with three or maximum five storeys could be more than enough.
Once lift in our hospital got repaired! You know how difficult it was to run up and down the stairs? Here you are only keeping three lifts for fifteen floors, while my hospital has only four floors having more lifts.
As you said there will be about more than five hundred people, I think you can leave some place for a primary Heath care setup. As I was speaking with rammu anna, I hope you know him the seventh floor security anna."
"The person you started buying coffee?" Advith said smiling a little.
"No! don't you go there?" I asked remembering that day angrily.
"No?"
"I actually bought it for you guys as you were all working hard and I left like I am no use. Least I can do is buy you all the coffee. But, when I came back you all had one in your hand. So, not to waste the coffee I started giving to the security guards. As I remembered rammu anna complaining that day he was having headache. And then he introduced me to his friends Guna anna, Balu anna and then Balu anna to their friends vikram anna, murthy anna and.." My excitement of saying about my friends name were rudely cut by Advith
"So on and on that I get you have lot of friends in this building than I got, I am well aware of your fans, Sarah!" Advith said as if he remembers some incident.
"Still, its rude to stop my excitement of speaking about my friends!" I said as I pulled my legs to my chest and lay my head on my knees.
"No need to pout! Your friends came one by one to say that coffee isn't idiotic thing also I am wrong in your runaway." He said under his breath but well enough for me to hear I guess.
"That's my friends! Get it!" I said showing him my tongue to tease him as I just wanted to lighten up the place and not to end up silent as I can feel in his face he regret the moment.
"Want some coffee?" He asked getting up looking at me as he too got we don't want to dwell upon it.
"I like my coffee very very light!" I said and he looked at me one minute and then Started to make it. Getting bored I ended up taking the milk from him.
"You get bored easily!" He said as I switched off the induction.
"I get it a lot!" I said and he laughed nodding little.
"So, what happened to rammu anna headache?" He asked as I was mixing coffee.
"Oh! Yeah. I totally forgotten, as we were speaking as we had coffee. I felt like he was experiencing it because of vision defect. I took him other day to hospital and guess what?" I asked smiling a little.
"You were right?" He said laughing a little. I nodded at him as I gave him the coffee mug.
"That now after wearing glass, he stopped having too much coffee. Because of having too much coffee he experienced little stomach discomfort too, I have asked him to drink lot of water and gave some tablet. I should check with him how is he doing? I totally forgot to ask him." I said and got up to go and ask him.
"Sarah! Where are you going?" Advith asked or called me. I looked back to see him smile smugly. I raised my brows at him.
"It's ten thirty! Other than night time securities none will be here. I don't think he have night shift tonight as I saw him this morning."
"We are here na?" I asked and he shighed.
"Wait! What did you said? Ten thirty? Oh my god! I am so going to get grounded!" I said as I run to find my purse and then remembered I left it in the bag itself.
"Sure! I am going to get a earful again and grounded too. I am dead!" I said hitting my head.
"Thank you for dinner and coffee! I should go home before they all go crazy to find me." I said and was at the door.
"Let me drop you?" He said than he asked. I looked at him.
"Should I also not reject this tone?" I asked and he looked at me amused.
"I just raised my voice to catch your attention as you were running barbaric! Also I don't want you leave alone as you seem panicked!" He said and I nodded at him as concern was clear in his face.
"Rammu anna, my drive drove me here. I am sure he will be waiting down answering unlimited calls instead of me." I said and he smiled at me.
"Have a safe journey! Then" I nodded at him.
"See you again." I said looking at his eyes to see his lips curve up.
"See you soon!" I smilled as I heard him as I leave out.
