"Anitha.I met her at the success party and since then she has been after you for your appointment.Remember?"

Meenakshi was busy signing cheque books for next charity event they were invited for.She makes sure the money reaches the one in need.In case she could not make it for the function.

Miley briefed her about her schedules and number of people she has been keeping on hold for months.She has become more anti social lately.She doesn't have interest meeting new people.Most hated topic for her is to answer those inquiring about her personal life and as Mrs Sahae give them some scoop about her husband and married life.

M-"I cant remember what happened a week ago Miley and you want me to remember her name?In any case if she is a journalist then dont give her my time not worth it.I am fed up of answering their illogical and nonsense questions.Lets move on."

She let the cap of pen touch her lip when her phone rang.

An-"Mrs Meenakshi Sahae?Please may I have a word with you?"

M-"Whose it?"

An-"I apologize for taking your time but it would take me a minute or two I promise.I am Anitha. we met few weeks ago at your husband's success bash.I asked you for something and you said you will spare some time if possible.So"

M-"Wait.How did you get my personal number?And you know I dont entertain press and media related stuff its.."

An-"Please Ma'm it would take me an hour.I know your distaste for such matters and I wont ask you a thing concerning those areas can count on me."

Meenakshi gave a look to Miley who fixed her glasses.She paused for a while and continued.

M-"Fine.If the topic is of my concern only.Or else I wont entertain.Make sure of that."

An-"Thank you and I will make sure you have no qualms.So we are meeting?Sunday for breakfast?

Miley raised her brows.

Mi-"Why did you say yes.she is a journalist and you just said."

M-"Its okay.If she is insisting then we can see what the matter is and I already made it clear no nonsense stuff.Where did she get my number from."

Mi-"You dont know these people.thry can get to you in any way.Has been after top list names to get hold of scoops.I fear what she has to do with you."

M-"I am not any celebrity Miley.I have nothing to show off except handful status which I got from my husband."

Miley had her mouth open.First time she heard something in a normal tone from her boss.She called him her husband and without making a face.

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

"Am I here to waste my time or what.Raju tell him I am here to talk business.Not like him playing around.he is never serious with any stuff.Last time also because of his reckless nature we lost Prakash and.."

Suhaas entered the big conference room well furnished with posh white setting.He was in formals and walked long steps till made himself comfortable on his chair.He moved the chair side ways and tapped his fingers on table.Opposite him sat a man at his 40s.From his face he looked full of irritation and frustration.

S-"Kumar.First word.Don't try to bring past when dealing with me.Second word on you and for you.I never let anyone try to stir up emotions inside me and if anyone tries to do that, I make sure I either finish them off or.."

Kumar gulped with dire need of water.Suhaas made a face at him and signaled Raju to pass some water to him.The mention of Prakash still ignites those fresh wounds inside him.His past had to break him every single time.Whether people related to him or those who tried to make relations with him.

Kumar spoke after a minute.

K-"Suhaas.You know why Iam here.When we started this we had many people behind and now we are few.Prakash helped me a lot and thats one of reasons I still have faith on you.You were his man and trusted.After his death you have taken over things with brilliancy."

S-"So what makes you doubtful now?"

K-"Its not about being doubtful.Did you know about the last few deals we tried to make and why they failed.The collaborations with some international companies.We have someone spying on us and they have got details for which we have to cancel deal end moment.I fear if this goes on we have to end this business."

Suhaas had a faint smile on his lips and he massaged his temples with his long fingers.Kumar was not taking his silence in a good sense and he eyed Raju.

R-"Rishi.I think its time we take any action.Things are going overboard."

K-"And if you are not interested tell me.My men are ready to kill that reason for once and all.I dont think you are worrying much."

S-"So what do you want me to do?Fly like spiderman and end this at one go?You people never use this thing called brain.Stop raising your blood pressure and go home and relax.It will be taken care of."

K-"How.I need to know.I cant relax at this state.you are not getting me we dont know whom they have sent after us and.."

R-"VIKRAM is already here.A week ago he boarded the flight."

Kumar raised his brows with shock while Suhaas remained unaffected.

K-"Do you know what you are saying.I knew it.Only he is capable of stopping us.Suhaas I am telling you he is unstoppable and he never lets anything unfinished."

S-"Just stop pushing things.I told you I am here and I have given my word long enough."

K-"You dont know him.He is a big thing to be scared of.And once he sets his eyes at anything he makes sure he gets it.Cunning rascal."

Suhas gave a sarcastic laugh and stood up from his seat.He went to Kumar facing him with sharp eyes.He had his hands fixing up his collar.Kumar sweated badly.

S-"If you knew I have known him far more closer and better than you.even his own self.I will make him run after something, which he wont be able to catch in this life time.Never."

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

It was Sunday morning and Meenakshi getting ready.She brushed her hair and put some kohl under her eye line.She eyed her husband from mirror.It was weird to find him home when he was always busy with something.

He had his concentration on some magazine.Must be reading his own praises.She moved her head sideways and wore ear rings.

S-"Checking me out through mirror wifey.Why.You can come and do the needful."

Suhaas raised his eyes meeting with her wife's through the transparent mirror.She looked baffled and moved her eyes.

M-"Please.I would rather please my eyes with something else."

He gave a nod and left the magazine on bed.She found him walking to her and got up.Soon she felt his hands on her arms and she shifted uncomfortably.He pulled her from waist and tried to get her closer.

M-"I am going out for work.Not now."

S-"When did I stop you."

He let his finger rub the sensitive part of her earlobes and pinched her right there.She moaned and faked a dead expression.He knew it from inside.She felt a normal kiss on her cheek.

S-"Come back soon.I have to talk about something important."

He left her.She looked back at his figure and felt weird for some unknown reason.What has gone wrong with them from past few days.She was worried with her own self and now additions.

M-"Shit.I am late.Miley ."

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

Raju came to the pool side area and found a rather astonishing sight.Suhaas laid on his back on the lounger.Instead of swimming he was busy with a drink and eyes set on a book.

S-"Morning Raju.Why so early today what brings you here?"

R-"What's wrong with you?"

S-"Sorry?"

R-"Nothing.You are not swimming at this hour?And reading a book.Rishi are you alright or something disturbing you"

Suhaas let a smile pass over that subtly handsome face.He was in his shorts and a blue T shirt.He stretched his arms and stared at the sun.

S-"You think there is a single thing on this earth which or who have audacity to get me disturbed?What makes you think like that."

R-"Your behavior.looks changed.for good for obvious reasons I can sense."

S-"Dont day dream Raju and I do feel tired now after repeatedly asking you to stop having hopes on me.Rishi has died long back why do you try.

Anyways I was reading this.Trying to figure out for a change why girls get themselves down so easily for these love storries.I mean what must be keeping them involved?The introductory part or climax.I read both and nothing interests me."

R-"Good that you are trying for new things.We need changes in life Rishi or else one becomes .."

S-"I had a reason I told you.You can dream as long as it pleases you.Girls and their insane mind process.I should be thankful my wife is not.."

Raju gave a quizzical smile.He noticed same bewildered expression on the person's face who claimed to be no nonsense person with emotions.

R-"I see.I am here to talk about something else."

Suhaas shrugged off the weird thoughts and sipped on to his drink.

S-"What is it?"

R-"Anitha.A girl.Journalist."

S-"What do we have to do with her."

R-"Remember we had a discussion on this and you know why she is here.She has been in constant touch with Vikram.I fear she is."

Raju shut his eyes and ears as a round of slangs passed from Suhas's mouth.

R-"You are not getting me Rishi.That girl is here to take information about you.Vikram was seen meeting her and Do you know the reason?"

S-"I dont want to.Let him have time of his life.I would give a fu**."

R-"Anitha is currently busy awaiting for someone.She would be there any moment and.I dont think we need to know what her motive is behind meeting Mrs Suhaas Sahae.Meenakshi."

Suhas took a second and threw the glass of drink on the floor breaking it into pieces.His eyes and face seethed in anger.

R-"Rishi.Stop Meenakshi.Before its too late."
