Chapter 9
The next morning Meera woke up early like she always does and went out to go jogging. While the everyone else in Oberoi Mansion slowly started waking up.
"Arre Alia....Didn't Meera wake up yet?" Bhavya asked as she saw Alia come downstairs.
"Meera woke up early in the morining Aunty, she just went for jogging."
"Oh ok, I'm just preparing breakfast, call her."
A while later Meer came back to the Oberoi Mansion and walked up to the breakfast table where some of the family members were sitting.
"Goodmorning." Meera smiled.
"Goodmorning," Shivaay replied, "I heard you woke up early and went fro jogging? Good, at least somebody wakes up early like me."
"Bhaiyya, you wake up early and do work, she went for jogging....there is still a difference." Rudra spoke up.
"Actually I do work while jogging...I check important emails on my phone." Meera replied.
"Lo, she is bhaiyya...with a twist." Rudra joked making everyone laugh.
"Goodmorning Oberoi Family." A guys voice greeted everyone from behind. Meera turned around only to come face to face with Kabir.
"YOU!" They both yelled at the same time. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
"One sec, you two know each other?" Dev asked. He had come down with Kabir.
"Yeah, she is completely crazy!." Kabir replied.
"I'm crazy? Well you know what you are? Rude!"
"Woah...wait. Im confused, you two have met before?" Dev asked.
"Yeah, first time we met...she broke my car window!"
"You deserved that." Meera sarcastically smiled.
"She broke your car?" Rudra asked laughing. Shivaay and everyone else were remembering the first meeting of Anika and Shivaay when Anika had also broken Shivaay's car.
"Rudra uncle, its not funny. And what is she doing here?"
"She is our new Business Partner and she will be staying with us as long as she is in India." Dev replied then turned to Meera, "And Meera, This is my childhood friend, Kabir....he lives with us."
"WHAT!" Both Kabir looked at each other and yelled.
"Kabir dude...thats enough." Dev somehow took kabir away while Alia calmed Meera down. The rest of the family were quite entertained by their arguement as it reminded them of Shivaay & Anika's moments.
"I'm sorry." Meera apologised for her behaviour and then sat down to eat breakfast. At that moment Pihu & Ishaan came down.
"Arre Meera, This is my daughter Pihu, and this is Ishaan, Rudra & Bhavya's son." Om introduced them, "Pihu, Ishaan this is Meera & Alia. They will be staying with us."
"Hi Meera Didi." Pihu replied, "Sorry, its not a problem if I call you Didi right?"
"Why would I have a problem? Of course You can call me Didi." Meera smiled.
"Then I'll call you Didi too!" Ishaan said excitedly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Alia....we have two goals. One... find the person in Oberoi Industries who wants to destroy the company. And two, what happened between Ma & Papa 25 year ago."
"That wont be easy Meera. How will we do that?"
"I know it wont be easy....but to complete my family, I have to."
"Meera, Alia your cabins are ready, follow me." Dev said and led them first to a cabin beside his own. "Alia this is your cabin."
(Alia's Cabin: As Meera is the CEO her assistant has a pretty high position in the company)
"Wow...I love it."
"You will find everything you need here....and you can decorate it as you like." Dev replied. Then they went into the cabin across from Alia's. "And this is your cabin Meera."
(Meera's Cabin. Has name plate 'Meera: Partner' on the door.)
"Its great."
"Glad you liked it....acha if you need anything, just let me know."
"Sure." Alia and Dev then left the room and Meera sat down at the computer.
"Mama...Im in." Meera called Sahil.
"Ok, now connect the USB key to the computer. My friend will hack into the system."
"Got it..." Meera took out a small USB type thing and connected it behind the computer. "Mama, he wont get caught right?"
"Relax Meeru, this is literally his job, nobody will catch him. Just keep the computer on, at all time okay?"
Meanwhile Dev was on his phone talking to Kabir.
"Dude I cannot believe that crazy girl will be staying in Oberoi Mansion."
"Kabir...we went over this. Meera is our business partner. This is really important for us."
"Yeah, I understand that but of all the people why her!"
"What is her problem with her? She seems nice."
"I told you, she broke my car and she admitted it infront of you."
"You probably started it."
"Are you serious? You are taking that girl's side?"
"That's cause I know you very well. They will be living with us for awhile only...its not like its forever."
"Fine....but she better stay faaaarrrrr away from my car!" Kabir grumbled. Dev laughed when he heard a knock on his door. looking through the glass, he saw Alia standing there.
"Come in!" Dev called out. Alia entered and nervously smiled.
"Hi, I'm so sorry to disurb you but the AC in my Cabin isnt working...I called someone but nobody came yet and I get cold pretty easily..."
"Is that the assistant girl? Do you look like an electrician to her....like thats all you have to do today...fix her AC." Kabir who had heard everything said through the phone.
"Kabir I'll call you later, I'm busy right now."
"Oh really? I know what you are busy with....don't hang up....De-" Dev hung up the phone and stood up from his table.
"Come, I'll fix it." Dev smiled.
"Really? Thanks so much...I know this isnt really your job..."
"No that's fine....Im the one who said, if you need anything call me." Dev then followed Alia into her cabin and took the remote to lower the AC temp but it didnt work.
"Pass me that chair." Dev said.
"This has wheels...you will fall. You know what, let it go...I'll just call someone else."
"Arre nahi, actually the AC is new so the wires are probably not connected properly. Its easy, I can do it. you can just hold on to the chair."
"Ok..." Alia replied unsure. She brought one of the chairs over and Dev climbed on and fixed the wires.
"Done." Dev replied then turned to get off the chair when it slipped from under him and he fell off right onto Alia.
Pinned under Dev, Alia held her breath as their eyes met. Dev nervously tried to get up only to feel a tug on his shirt. Alia's necklace had gotten tangled on his shirt button.
"Sorry." Alia and Dev both said, they looked at each other and smiled. Alia tried to untangle her necklace and then Dev took over.
"I'll do it." Dev looked into Alia's eyes and started unwinding the chain from his button.
"Are you okay?" Dev asked Alia once the chain was untangled.
"You are the one who fell form the chair...are you okay?" Alia replied back. They looked at each other and laughed.
"Alia...what was that noise are you oka-" Meera walked in and froze as she saw the fallen chair and Dev and Alia sitting on the floor laughing.
"Ummm...did I miss something?" Meera looked confused.
"No..actually I was fixing the Ac and then I fell." Dev clarified as he and Alia got up.
"You? You were fixing the AC?"
"Yeah." Dev picked up the remote again and lowered the temp...this time it worked. "See."
"I see." Meera replied, with a small smile.
"Anyways, I should go" Dev said and quickly left the room. Meera turned to Alia and raised her eyes.
"Aloo, I think my dear sweet brother likes you." Meera joked.
"What? We just met yesterday!"
"Yeah so? It could be love at first side."
"Shut up Meera, its nothing like that..." Alia blushed
"Right....and why would he come to fix your AC? He is Shivaay Singh Oberoi's nephew."
"He was being nice." Alia protested.
"Hmmhmm...okaaayyyy, if you say so."
