Its sharp 8:00 am and all our board members and partners are arriving for the meeting. As I quickly meet all my heads and partners I see my late friend Aman enter as well. I try to give him an angry look and he takes his seat in the first right chair of the long 30 seater round table of our meeting room. All the members take their seat and our CEO; Mr Sharma and our going to be partner company's CEO; Mr Dhawaan comes, my Secretary welcome them with bouquets in all courtesy from our behalf and they take their positions. The table consist of water bottles, some chocolate, pens and laptops for all people to see the presentation and work more clearly along them with us and to note down points.

"So gentlemen, I welcome you all to come here for this very important and profitable meeting about our new Project on Aisleyart Apartments. So here is our layout and thoughts about what our company has planned about working with Mr.Dhawaan..."

I begin the meeting with all hope and confidence. Aman gives me a thumbs up as I start. As I attached my usb in the laptop and looks at my paper for all important notes related to the contents of my presentation and my speech which I made before and altered on my way in car. I get an amazing SHOCK. My papers are missing and mixed with some random poetry and cv kind off a thing of some girl named "Parvati". Holly crap, what the hell, how can this be?? I had no idea about were these things came in my file and I look directly to my secretary for being so irresponsible and keeping them here.

I pause for a while and read the slide with confidence to give something to the audience just while I search secretly through the pile of papers to get my notes somewhere. Soon I get a part of it and I mix all my thoughts up, put them up and tried best to give my part of the presentation regarding our policies and company progress and benefits of working with us etc.

"So as you know we have a brilliant Team of people working in DeDoras and this time too we shall do our best to run this project efficiently and effectively with the support of you guys and the hardwork of our people. Thank you for listening and now its on you Mr.Dhawaan and your members to decide in our favour or no and if you want to know something more about us, please feel free.." I end up hesitantly but firm with all my speech since past 2 hours now.

After a minute of discussion and few buzz here and there, a board member from their side ask.

"Well it all looks fine but can we know who will be the Project head if we plan to give you the project and what are your opinions on that? We would really like to know that. "

Shit... now this is what happens when you have busy friday and saturday and horrible last weekend night and plus when the person whom I plan to make the Project head for a very important project enters last minute after vanishing since a week. I think through it... but i know Aman is so good and knows exactly what I want and will do his best in any circumstance with the thing important for me

All look at me for the answer and if I have decided any one or no. So I decides to call him to his shock while he just looks at me.

"Well yes, I definitely have made a plan about most of the people who will do major part of the project and so this Project will be headed by our very realiable colleague and my dear friend Mr.Aman Mehra; right now my marketing head of DeDoras Company and to know more about it, I would like ask him to stand and speak a few things. "

Shocked Aman, like he looks so horrified which i know he is cause he is not so good with audience speeches unless rehearsed and try to avoid them much but he gives me a hard look and stand with grin which I return with wide smile

"Hello everyone, this is a real surprise and pleasure to be part of this project and moreover become the Head. I would like to thank our CEO and my friend for considering be worthy enough and I could say that with all the support and hardwork we will rock this project and as Mr. Ranawat said we promise to sell all these new Aisleyart properties within a Year. Thankyou." Aman ends his speech

Woow I was so impressed with the way he spoke so confidently am impressed with him. I think to myself and smile only when Mr.Sharma clapped and so does all.

"You all look confident and amazing people to work with and I am sure that we will have good and profitable time together. All the Best to all of us and this project surely be a hit with you and us together. Mr Sharma says it loud and all clap again."

I feel soo amazing and relieved hearing his and as i look at Mr.Dhawaan he is pleased with us and gives me a smile.

"We shall dicuss and sign the contract papers soon after the lunch break and discuss about other important points regarding the project as well," one of the secretary of Mr.Sharma tells

We agreed and all started to leave the room for the lunch break as it was a long 3 hours meeting now and 11pm in the clock. All of them leave along with Aman giving away horrible looks and smiles to me as he probably was hungry but I stayed inside thinking about the mess that was about to ruin this meeting and my anger boils as I call Anamika inside.

"May I come in Sir," she says very nervously

"What the hell was that haan? Havent I asked you to keep all my stuffs and papers in the file properly?" I scream in anger

"Yes Sir and I did exactly like that.." she replied worried

"Oh yes right then what the hell this stupid kiddish poetry of yours and some new appointee CV shit is doing in my meeting file? "

"Sir, I have no idea about them as I saw it without giving much notice I thought may be you need it or for some reference I kept it with that," she replied politely

"Are you crazy, dont lie to me, when have you seen me writing poetry and carrying people's cvs, like you think I am crazy?" I say equally angry

"I am sorry Sir but I aint lying"

"Yeah right. This is so unprofessional and oh...." my mind goes to the flashback.

I got banged with a woman, oh I guess a girl wearing a simply tea pink kinda kurti and white pants to my memory and these things might be hers. Oh Man this is so horrible. My mind starts thinking about it and I get more pissed on that stranger girl who almost ruined my presentation today.

"Sir... I am really sorry," Anamika says slowly bringing me back to my senses

I realised that it was definitely not her fault only if she could ask me ones if she should keep them here or no but as all know I am so particular and dont do such mistakes she might have not asked. But since I have ego and cant my accusation back, I decides to punish her but not in a cruel way though, My good soul speaks within

"For being unprofessional and stupid I suspend you from this position and.." she cuts me and speak

"No Sir, Please am really sorry. It wont happen again Sir."

"Let me complete Anamika, I am suspending you from this position and not resticate you forever. I am suspending you from this position for some time as its your 1st mistake and I will only give you this position back if you prove you wont do it again. So for now you will be working as Advertising Manager in the Marketing dept under Mr.Aman Mehra. Is that ok? " I tell her with a straight face

"Oh Sir, please.." she sighed

"What you dont want to work? Fine you may leave the company then." I say loud

"No.. its ok Sir.. Am sorry for what happened and I hope to gain my place back soon. Thank you," she replied sadly

"That's better.. you may go now"

"Thanks Sir," she leaves with sad face

I takes a breath and goes back to my thinking only when my door is leashed out and someone enters..
