Mahira’s look said it all, she was shocked, flabbergasted as she looked at him
“I.. am not sure what you mean,”
“I mean that you will officially join the Jindal group as the DSO for now, eventually I will make your presence felt in the company and add you into the directors, you will officially have a percentage of shares and will be a part of the Jindal group,”
Mahira continued to gape at him like she could see two horns grow out of his head suddenly
“Mr. Jindal I don’t understand, I was just a small unimportant employee in your company who has done nothing but brought shame and disgust to the company, why would you make me an offer like that and why should I accept it, just so that I become a subject of more ridicule, is it that you’re stil
Tazz had a smug smile on his lips as he saw her sign the documents, once done, he grabbed her hand and pulled her off chair towards the conference room. Mahira stopped before he could pull open the door of his cabin and released her hand from his grip“Mr. Jindal, we are in a professional place and should behave like ones, so please,”Tazz understood her point and walked ahead of her as she followedAs soon as they entered the conference room, there were glances spared towards Mahira that were silent yet had a mountainous load of questions in it, Mahira felt nervous as they headed towards the head of the table where Tazz usually sat, sensing her tension, Tazz held her hand beneath the table to make her feel better“This is Miss Mahira Saha, many of you know her already, sh
“Relax Sonia, I was just kidding,”“Oh! really, Tazz you scared me so much,” she finally breathed with relief, her face relaxed and she beamed as she pulled a chair out to sit opposite him, Tazz kept staring at her face“Tazz, I am your friend, I would never tell upon you to anyone, no matter how much I lo.. like uncle Tej,” she had a wide smile“I know,” he simply replied, catching the word that she changed abruptly“Hey Tazz, how about we go out for coffee... let’s go catch a movie today, its been so long we haven’t been out like friends,” “You look very happy suddenly,” Tazz had a straight face with a small smile, as he kept gauging her expressions”
“Hero uncle, I am very angry with you, you have forgotten little Tama, do you not like me anymore?”Tazz smiled wide imagining a big pout on her little face, her voice worked like magic on him“How can I forget my princess, its just that uncle was a little busy, uncle is so sorry to make Tama sad,”“Its okay uncle, looks like my time is not right, even my Mama has forgotten me, how can I complain about you,”“Ha ha ha, really, how did Tama’s loving super mom forget Tama, you said she loves you the most,”“Yeah! she does, but she is busy, uncle I’m asking you for one last time, you please think hard and reply, will you be my dadda,”&ldqu
Mahira entered the coffee shop where she Ana and Mak had planned to meet up, She entered the booth booked by Mak, both of them had already reached, Mahira was pleasantly surprised to see Mohaga who had accompanied Mak“Mahira, you look much better today,” Ana stood up and hugged her, Mak and Mohaga followed the same, Mahira took a seat next to Ana“Mahira, before I forget, you need to call TJ and speak to him,”“Hmm,” Mahira took Ana’s phone and dialled his number“Hello Ana,” TJ”s deep velvety voice sounded refined“Hi, It’s me,” “Mahira,” She could feel a sense of longing in his voice and she sighed
When Mahira showered and stepped out, Tazz wasn’t present in the room, she walked up to the bed and decided to go to sleep early, she had a lot of thinking to do and needed to shut her eyes for the same, just as she sat on the bed she heard her tummy grumble“Ah!, I’m so hungry,” as if in reply and confirmation to her statement, there was another growl heard“Shoot!, I’ll have to go down, which is okay, but not if I have to face grumpy Anuj, God knows what has gotten into him, looks like I need to have a clear chat with him to know why the hell has his good behaviour turned so demonic,’ She walked out of the room, making her way to the dining area, just as she’d thought, Anuj was already seated on his chair, Mrs. Shah was laying the tableA d
“Help me, NO.., please stop, don’t do it, please, Mayaaaa, help me, save me, aarghhhh!!,”‘ha ha ha ha ha ,” the devil took the blood from Mahira’s dying body and splashed it all over Mahira’s face“NOOO,”Mahira jolted back from her nightmare, instantly rubbing her face dry, she looked into her palm and realised it was only water drops, she was panting, breathing heavy as tears brimmed in her eyes“Are you okay?”Mahira jerked her head up, oblivious till now that she had someone in the room, she looked up and saw Tazz, then looked around and heaved a sigh of relief that she was in his office and there was no one around. Her eyes flickered around unsteadily till she was sure he wasn't
There was a dark look and a deep frown on Tazz’s face as her words kept playing on in his mind on a repeat mode, ‘Did she speak about someone being killed?’ his mind was in an overdrive, trying hard to fathom the depths of despair she must have endured, suddenly he felt hit with the fact that after all, her disappearing act from the wedding must have been more than just her own will.That night they stayed back in his office, she slept while he held her in his arms and rested his back on the head board of the bed, she stirred a few times in her sleep, mumbling incoherent words that he could not wrap his head around.“Mr. Jindal, Mr. Jin..,” Mahira looked at the man who held her tight in his arms when she woke up, surprised that they stayed back in the office“Hmm,” he opened his eyes, still
“What are we doing here?” she got out of the car as she saw Tazz carrying a bunch of dry leaves and twigs“We’re here for an important task,” he said, placing the bunch of dry leaves on the ground a little away from the car, then lighted it up with his lighter, walking back to the car he took out a basket from the boot and walked back to the fire that was faintly lit now“Mr. Jindal, what are you doing? why are we here and what’s happening?”“First of all stop calling me Mr. Jindal, today you will call me only Tazz,” He commanded as he pulled out a small pan, then from a bottle of water he poured some water in it, removing a couple of packs of noodles he got at work of cookingMahira stood
