Ian was back in the car and Austin was confused if or not to ask him anything. “You can ask me," Ian said, understanding the situation. “How was it?" Austin asked him finally. Though he was aware of his boss's relationship, he never really asked him or Pari about anything. If anything, he was happy for them. Though Ian was a strict boss, Austin had learnt a lot from him and he was grateful for it. On the other hand, Pari was a great colleague and a dear friend. So he silently supported their relationship. “Pretty intense..." Ian replied with a long sigh. “Hope things go well " “Hope so. Take me to the hotel. We'll leave in the evening. Get the jet ready" Ian was eager to run back home to his beloved lady. “Yes sir. I'll make the arrangements." Austin instantly got busy with phone calls. They returned to the hotel soon and Ian decided to take a long shower. He decided to enjoy the authentic Indian food that his girlfriend always praised and true to her words, the food
Pari's life was good, in fact extremely good and all credits to her love and loved ones. Autumn had just kicked in and her busy life had become more busy with all the auditing and stuff. Pari celebrated Sonu's birthday with her gang and Ian was with them though he isn't much of a social butterfly. Auditing was a tiresome time for Pari as she had to prepare a detailed report. Pari was still confused when Ian asked her to pack their luggage on the last day of auditing. Fortunately he had mentioned that they will be leaving for a short vacation to Rome instead of keeping it a secret. Rome was the city that Pari always wanted to explore, especially with her love. So she couldn't control her excitement after he announced the vacation plan. She voluntarily dragged Avery and Sonu shopping as soon as he mentioned about the trip. She wanted to enjoy this vacation to the fullest so she didn't mind spending some bills on her wardrobe. Her car trunk was filled with shopping bags by the end of t
Next morning Pari woke up early with a series of kisses and tickles by her beloved boyfriend. When she was finally awake he asked her to get ready quickly. She was confused about what to wear though she had carried enough clothes. She asked for his suggestion holding her blue frock and a pair of jeans and top."You look gorgeous anyhow but I prefer blue for today " Ian helped her finalise the look for the day. He even picked out the accessories to match her dress. She thanked him with a kiss and went to change and get ready. He was ready with his white shirt and black jeans with a white converse. He looks dapper as usual and Pari was already drooling. For a second she considered if it was actually necessary to leave the room while they can have fun by staying back. She just wanted to be a bit more greedy and save his visuals for herself. But he didn't approve of her naughty ideas. They had a quick breakfast and Ian was excited about the journey and it intrigued Pari. "What's so spe
"But there's something I want to give you and I want you to wear it" Ian picked up one more box and opened it, a floral pendant in a thin platinum chain was in it. Pari instantly nodded with a smile. He walked to her back and parted her hair towards her left shoulder and helped her wear the chain. The cold metal and his warm fingers brushed her neck and the feeling was overwhelming for her. "It's a wild rose pendant. For me, you're precious and special just like a wild rose. This is a promise from my end to always love and cherish our relationship. I love you Pari '' He looked at her with genuine affection in his eyes. Ian had planned this vacation not only to de-stress their busy life but also to execute his simple yet meaningful proposal. After meeting her parents, Ian decided not to further deny his plans of letting her know about his sincerity. He wanted her to know that she was the one for him. "I've never felt so lucky in my life, Ian. You're the reason I would love to live m
Ian's plans for their romantic Rome trip were successful and now they were back in London to their busy life. Anna was happy about the total event and wished her babies all the love and goodluck for their future. Coming to work front, since Ian decided to follow Pari's idea about the raw material issue, they were now having a problem-free raw material supply. Archer's plans to cause ruckus in Ian's business was now a failure. Things between Ian and Pari were amazing since they returned from the trip. Though she complained a lot that she spends most of her time in his place, she was willing to stay with him all the time. So they were already living like a married couple with all their cooking, cuddling and movie time. Pari's parents never contacted Ian and they even stopped contacting Pari too. Probably this was the dead end of those relationships for her and them. Though it kept hurting her, she tried her level best to move on with her life. But Ian always made sure that she wouldn
A week had passed since Pari spoke her heart out to him and Ian's willingness to wear her symbol of love made her fall deeper for him. She felt special seeing that ring around his neck all the time.It was a fine Monday morning and Ian and Pari were in his cabin having a discussion on his schedules and making the necessary changes in it. "Can you free up Wednesday evening please. I've things planned for the day" Ian requested and Pari shot him a quizzical glance. "Not to be nosey, but may I know the reasons please sir? " "A long pending dinner" Ian replied. "Ok.. You want me to make reservations? " "No thank you. I've made it already " Ian wasn't giving out much. "Fine. You don't have any meetings scheduled, so you're good to go" Though she wanted to know more about his dinner plans, she didn't want to probe his privacy. "You are not going to ask me the details? " Ian was curious about Pari's calm behavior. He thought she would be jealous. "If I'm invited you would have inform
"I'll just use the washroom for a minute, while you get time to get to know each other better" Ian excused himself and walked away. Pari, who was already bored with the conversation, didn't really have anything to say. So she decided to check her phone. The waiter was soon back with the ordered dishes and excused himself after serving. Pari was extremely hungry, so she started tasting the appetiser till Ian returned" So how's life after being Ian's girlfriend?" Abby mockingly asked Pari. "Great" Pari decided to stick to one word answer."Of course… Ian can give you all the luxuries. That's the reason you're clinging to him right? " She let out a haughty laughter. Pari didn't respond and instead focused on her food and phone. "What happened? Cat caught your tongue? No comebacks anymore? I can't understand why Ian picked a low life like you to be your girlfriend.. I mean.. Look at you and him.. You don't even deserve to stand next to him" Abby continued to insult Pari. But Pari didn
It was the weekend already and Ian was at Pari's apartment since she insisted. She was cleaning her room when she found a luggage bag lying in a corner of the room. She didn't remember if she had it here earlier or not, so she decided to open it and check what's inside. It had some of her clothes, some photo albums and her medals and trophies.... Her memory went back to the day when she went to Pune. It's been around two months that she hasn't had any contact with her family. She wasn't even sure if they still consider her as family. It was as if they had almost erased her from their memories. The money that she usually sent to them every month was sent back. But still she didn't give up. She tried calling her mother sometimes but her number was blocked after sometime.Pari was looking at all the album photos and reliving those moments. It was a nostalgic moment to recall the way she grew up. Ian walked out of the kitchen to call her for lunch. She was still in the trance of her past
