"May I enter, Madam?" Nikhil was standing at the door.
"Please come in."
"I found it. Mr. Abhay had a rather serious difficulty, indeed. There's a project he started with a prominent corporation, but they called it off unexpectedly, laying a debt of 150 million dollars on them. Despite their
best efforts, they were unable to persuade them not to cancel the project."
"How come they cancelled the project?" Sarah, who had been eavesdropping, got up from her table and ran to us.
"That I don't know, and the most aggravating part is that, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't dig into that company's details. To begin with, not even the name."
"I get what you mean. Let's put an end to this. Get a paper ready by tomorrow, Sarah, declaring that we no longer wish to do business with Abhay's company." I said turning down the computers.
“What? But we have worked with them for three years now. You should think this through.” Sarah asked shockingly.
“We can’t continue our cooperation with them anymore. They can’t be trusted, Sarah.” Nikhil replied to Sarah.
“Can you not interfere, Nikhil. I am talking to the CEO and not you.” Sarah was literally shouting.
“Well, I’m the COO, you should know whom you are talking to, Secretary.”
“Excuse me? Is that how you talk to your wife?” Sarah jumped from the chair and asked him angrily, like a kid. And the atmosphere suddenly changed to playful.
“Wrong move, Mr. COO”, I couldn’t stop teasing. “Sudh, I want to divorce this guy.”
“Well, you started it Sarah. But I think you guys should actually get divorced. I’ll call the lawyer tomorrow and arrange everything. Don’t worry!”
“Hey!! Are you even my friend?” Sarah said, giving me a questioning look. Well didn’t she herself just want that?
"Babe, why are you so quiet? You really want to divorce me?" She was making an adorable puppy face at Nikhil. “Didn’t you just say you want to divorce me?” Nikhil said, folding his hands. “So? Will you simply let me?”, “Of Course not! I'll just take you home and lock you in our room, and you know .....” Nikhil smirked, clearly implying something mischievous. Sarah was shocked, yet she was blushing profusely.
“Oh oh, noo. You husband and wife, better cease your PDA. Why don't you go home?” I exhaled a sigh.
“Yes, we will. But first, let's eat supper together. It's your birthday after all.” Sarah proposed.
“You know I never celebrate my birthday. Raman, on the other hand, should be waiting for me. His daughter will be home for dinner. I had missed her so much”, it has been three months since I met her. She’s been staying in a hostel close to her institute.
“really??, please take me. I miss her, too.” Sarah said.
“No, you're going to eat her cheeks. Her final complaint was that your hug choked her to death.” It's wonderful taunting her.
“Didn't she grumble about my presents and candies? She's such a naughty child. I'll pluck both of her ears." Sarah said with a slight pout.
We all left the workplace by 8:30 p.m., and Nikhil and Sarah liveonly five minutes away, so they generally walk to work. It was 9 when I came home, I walked upstairs directly. It seemed strange that all of the lights were turned out. I put on the lamp and walked to open the door. It wasn't locked. When I entered, a sweet scent hit my nostrils. Of course, the dare devil’s home today, I walked to the couch and sat there. I know how to get her to come out.
