PAST CONTINUES :

Shivaay was upset...he was in his room lost in deep thought .

Shivaay's thought :

How has things changed so much , I am changing I can feel myself .

I never shout at girls and today I almost fought with Anika and took challenge . I don't like life like this . I have always loved to be care free but now why can't I be ?

Why did I promised Bauji that i will bring name ,fame and money to him ? he have always asked me to do so but I never cared... Bauji to aise he bolte hain , this is what I thought... but today I promised him .

Now if given promise like this , i have to fulfill it.. and i know it will not let me be what i am...TODAY .....he signed !!!!!!

he felt his dream... football almost slipping from his hand and he stood there helpless watching it slip ........

It was dark in Anika's room which was near Shivaay's room . She was just relaxing in dark on the chair . It was only her room that has air conditioner . She had offered to get the whole house conditioned but Oberoi's didn't needed it..... they refused politely ......

Shivaay came out in the lobby , he was lost in thought . Shivaay was in his half inner black vest and black track at bottom , his love for sports reflected in his dressing .

Anika's eyes went on him and his perfectly built up body. Her eyes got stuck on him and his muscles as he moved a little . How perfect and handsome he looked . None of her rich male friends have this type of muscular physique in them that they will catch her eyes like this .

Shivaay was in light but Anika was in Dark , Anika could see him clearly but he could not . Also he was lost in his thought . He was tensed and in his tension he just poured the water in the glass he was holding on him and shook his hair.

Anika gulped the saliva seeing the vision in front of him . Something churned in her belly and she felt weak on her knees . Her dark desire, came to her making her feel what she have never felt before .......

It was dark and in darkness when you know no one is seeing you , you also sometimes let your mind not see you.. that's what Anika was tempted to do . Seeing his handsome physique wet with water Anika almost forgot or just letting her guards down from herself in dark got lost in his beautiful structure . Everything was so perfect about him . There was a strong urge to touch him , feel him and more than that being cocooned in his strong muscled arms . She was not herself and darkness was helping her nurture her dark forbidden desire which otherwise she will never approve .

Urge to be lost in him was strong , so many things were happening to her, her knees felt complete weak and belly was having weird sensation . How peaceful it will be to be lost in his arm , away from this whole world , just he and her.

This was Ani , whom Shivaay had imagined , just seeing her picture , ani for whom only shivaay matters and nothing is above or beyond shivaay . Something in that picture had showed his Ani in her but Anika has hidden that Ani deep within , not even ready to believe there was one within her.....

Anika was completely lost in her thoughts when suddenly Shivaay moved away from the lobby, lost in himself and closed his door .

Anika then came to sense and immediately switched on her light . She was shaking , her whole body felt weak .

She immediately went to the washroom and washed her face with cold water but her body was still shaking from the sensation .

Anika : "Yuck, how could I ? that too with this man...... NO, how could I ? chi...... This man and me , stop Anika how could you even think like this ?"

Anika somehow slept that night . But it was by chance that when , in morning, Anika came out of her room, Shivaay came out too an they hit each other , Anika stumbled and Shivaay strongly held her with his strong arm , Anika's body shivered with the thought she had at night and she immediately jerked away .

Anika : "How dare you hold me" ?

Shivaay : "But you were falling so" ....

Anika : "Falling so ? I very well know your kind of person "

Shivaay : "Sorry"

Anika : "Behave yourself " and she left

Both left for the office from same place and reached same place . Anika in her black BMW while Shivaay on his khatara motor bike .

Shivaay : "Now this also need to be fixed. Mechanic said it will cost 5000 now your turn will come on next month friend" he patted the bike and went inside the office .

Shivaay was quietly sitting in his cubicle . He has decided to put his bauji's head high and he will now have to work to built up the company . This was not Shivaay's interest but for his Bauji he had decided to subside his passion for football and forget about his career in FootBall . It will though always be his hobby . This was all Shivaay was lost in thinking whole night . it was a tough decision to take but it was decided now .

The work in office was nothing for him . His working caliber was way beyond what he was assigned and thus he handles them easily and thus would most of the time lazily sit in office completing his work and then leave early . But now he had planning to do and his mind started working in all directions .

Shivaay was about to leave when one of his colleague approached him .

Employee 1 : "Shivaay , this budget is not coming as it showed . I saw every way but could not figure out . Tum deklo na yaar"

Shivaay whistled : "why ? yesterday you were saying so beautiful words to me ab karo apna kaam khud ........"

Employee 1 : "Shivaay sorry yaar , now we will not say anything . Without your help its tough to handle work here we are in habit of your help . Ab itna bhav kyun khaa raha hai.."

Shivaay took the file from his colleague , looked at it and immediately caught the issue and fixed it .

And he left from there . Even Shivaay's immediate boss didn't say anything to Shivaay . Earlier because he always was so efficient and always gave more than expected in minimal time and now he was Big Boss husband so he better did not want to come in between .

Shivaay had made some plan and now according to it went on tour of Rewari .

In mean while Anika just was taking round in the office and saw Shivaay's cube empty

Anika : "Where is Oberoi" ? she asked his boss

Anant (shivaay's immediate boss) : "Mam , he left for the day"

Anika : "why ? Is office hours done?"

Anant : " Mam he is too efficient for the work he handles . These works are just minimal for him "

Anika did not like hearing positive words for Shivaay . She had made up her mind and now was hell bent on proving what she thought was right . She never even wanted to realize his positive points , he was just nothing she had decided .

Then for few days , Anika could not help but keep watch on Shivaay . He did finished his assigned work and used to leave early . However she tried to ignore him but she could not .

She checked the work he was doing and found he was working a little more than his profile expected him to . She could not digest it .

At home Shivaay used to quietly go in his room , coz he had to work on the plan he was working on for his own new work .

At day time , he would finish his work of office and go to different site of rewari and nearby . He was working on map , empty lands , places that were inhibited in different ways he was seriously working on his work and his brain was running .

Now that he had promised to his Bauji , he have to keep upto it .

Shivaay : "Only if Anika would have been a tiny bit of understanding and not insulted him in office this would not have been such a big issue" he would thought but no backing out from promise.....

Anika could not find what he was doing but she knew he was upto something . she just ignored ,

Anika : "why am I even thinking about this person , I am handling a big company why have I to think about a common employee of mine. "

She tried to jerk her thought and got busy with her work .

Then the other day in office , she saw Shivaay was leaving and could not control herself . She called him in and in front of everyone .......

Anika : "Oberoi in my office immediately"

Shivaay : "OK mam"

It pained him every time he called his own wife mam . Yes she was his boss but for person like him , personal relation was above professional and that too in place like Rewari , everyone just looked at him mockingly . Well these things did not matter much to him , but his parents were getting humiliated too.

Anika : "There are five files , three of design and 2 of accounts . I want you to review them and get back to me ."

Shivaay : "But Mam I work only on engineering side"

Though he checked accounts file for his colleagues to help them but it was not his profile .

Anika : "Your educational profile says you can work on all these file . Get back to me after reviewing them ......"

Shivaay took the file and left for his cubicle . He had to visit a site . But Anika knew less that Shivaay was now so much on research and hard wok and that to his immense caliber , these files were kind of basic work for him , though not for normal employees .

He worked intently and was done in 2hrs .

Anika was shocked and surprised to get all 5 files in 2 hrs . She was sure that he had just given superficial look to them and returned then back .

Anika : "wait in your cubicle , I will look at them and get back to you"

Shivaay needed to go & see a site , his plan needed to be executed but he quietly went back to his seat .

Anika when looked at first file , it was full of marks , circles and remarks . So many changes as per him , but all the remarks were to the point . This way she checks the four file . She could not believe the number of changes he have suggested in both design and accounts file and all his points were so valid .

These files were almost final and here she could see he has a complete different outlook to them and they definitely were superior . Not wanting to accept but she had to . Now it was the turn to check the last file , Anika had intentionally given it to him , to make him see that not only she has her father's money but she has great mind too that file was made by anika only .

But when she opened the file , it was full of correction . Anika got furious without looking into the detail , how dare he ????

Anika : "This much show off, let me deal with him ." She immediately called him in .......

Shivaay : "Yes Mam"

Anika : "come in" She threw the file in front of him

Anika : "How dare you make changes in this file" ?

Shivaay : "You asked me to do it , I did my job" ?

Anika : "explain me all the changes in this file . IN DETAIL" she was so furious , how could this , mere employee of hers , made changes to her design .

Shivaay explained her all the changes he had done and his outlook was so different on the simple things . Anika's design on her own was great but Shivaay was from complete different angle , much better, approachable and economical too .

She did not say anything

Anika : "Ok fine , this was your job and you did it." Her ego could not accept his caliber nor praise him , but she had got first shock regarding him .

Shivaay : "Can I leave for the day"

Anika : "hmmm"

This way , days started passing ,

Anika by now knew Shivaay's caliber in work was exceptional and was aware he could go very high in his career if he goes out of Rewari . But this was only hurting her ego . She had nurtured her anger on him . How could a common man imagine to marry her , she could not digest , when she wanted to show him his place, he unknowingly showed her how superior he was in work .

His working style made her little curious of what he did when he left from office early almost everyday and reached home only after her And then he would again get engrossed in something in his room.

Anika : "why do I even care , just after Rewari project this man is completely out of my life."

She tried to console herself and boost her self proclaimed ego ......

.............................

PRESENT :

Anika has to leave for London much to pinky's dismay .......

One month has passed and Anika was working with full dedication . She had not let him down . She knew his standard very well . How perfect he was in his work .

Tia would sometimes come and say something to show superiority but Anika very well knew how to handle girls like Tia . She handled 10 like her in one finger tip of hers .

Her only concern was Shivaay .  Anika tried to call him , just by making excuse of project status but he never picked her call . But she knew he had exactly correct information of what was going on in the project as client would keep mentioning Shivaay's take on the work going ahead .

Anika had diligently worked and the project start was successful and client was very happy .

Anika's assignment in London was complete after 2 months . Tia was returning with her too , very frustrated that she could get to do nothing in the project as client wanted Anika to work on everything , her inputs and designs everything . Even she could not make false impression .

Anika was excited, she was going to see Shivaay . Now she will make sure there is no separation like this . Also, she was excited to hear his comment on her work .

While Shivaay these days , was in peace with no Anika around to trouble his mind and senses , to make him confuse with her new avatar .

Tia took two days break but Anika was dying to join office the next day .

Anika reached office at 8 am and could not wait for Shivaay to come . She felt like a teenager . Her eyes was only on Shivaay's cubical and at 8:30, the moment he entered his cabin, Anika could not hold and went to meet him .

Anika : "good morning Sir"

she said with a big smile ...... she was dying to see shivaay smiling at her but ......He did not even look up ......

Shivaay : "Did I call you miss Anika" ?

Anika : "No sir, I just came to...."

he cut her in middle "When I need you, I will call you. Concentrate on your work" breaking her excited heart into pieces .

She somehow joined the heart which ached so much and left for her cabin .

But she could concentrate on nothing , her eyes just kept on going to Shivaay's cabin . She could not get enough of him , his perfect features , his body language as he was engrossed in work , his perfect body when he got up to take some file . She was just absorbed in him . She was not liking this distance but what to do ?? it was all her own doing .....

earlier too , so many times she had been pulled up by his personality . Though he was simple but there was always something in him that pulled cord of desire in her which no one else have done and how extreme she had gone , to prove herself it was not true and to prove her this , all she had done is hurt him and humiliate him .

It had been hours she sat in her cabin doing nothing and just being lost in him . She got a call on her office phone

Shivaay : "Come to my office"

Anika : "yes sir" and in no time she was there in his office......

She took her seat .

Shivaay : "Client is very impressed by your work"

Anika : "Thanks sir and you?"

Shivaay : "Client is what matters , if they are happy , that is what we want."

Anika : "But how do you like my work ? I mean you must have seen the work."

Shivaay looked at her "I said client is happy , you should be happy with that"

Anika : "You are my boss , it matters for me how you think ?" but she knew, she is not going to get direct praise from him........

Shivaay : "Listen , next week is party for your client and I want you to manage that party . Client will be impressed......."

"and"

Anika : "I will do sir" 

both said together......

Shivaay closed his eyes in anger "why don't you let me complete my sentences ?"

"sorry sir" she looked down

Shivaay : "This is a two year project , you yourself have seen how great result we got when you worked from client side . So one week after the party you will leave for London and work with client till the project ends ."

Anika's eyes widened . there goes the bomb from shivaay's side ......
