Will you be without me? Chapter 6

Finally He is talking to me normally!!

Pragya was busy preparing to organise one of the big events that she had got! Its a musical event and a lot of celebrities and VIPs will be attending. It’s a 3 day event so a lot of preparations have to be done. And most importantly all have to be unique and creative.

Pragya went to the office to meet Laila again to brief about the plans that she and her colleagues had come up with. She went inside Laila’s cabin and she saw him! What is he doing here? Oh God! Why do I have to meet him again!

Laila’ Hi Ms Pragya! Meet Mr Abhi, the one who recommended you for this event organisation” Pragya, What he recommended me? Oh No so I have to work with him too! Pragya ” Hi Mr Abhi!” Abhi ” Hi Ms Pragya! Nice to meet you” Pragya, he is not showing any annoyance in his face does it mean that he had forgotten the way that I behaved with him that day? No may be he just don’t want to show it now in front of Laila…

Pragya sat in the opposite direction of Abhi and started to brief about the plannings for the event. Both Laila and Abhi were very impressed with Pragya’s ideas and had a smiling face all the way when Pragya was explaining the details.

After Pragya have explained everthing, Abhi ” Great work Ms Pragya! All the plans seem to be unique and surely can be well executed!” Pragya looked with wide eyes open to his compliment and said ” Thank you!” Laila also praised Pragya and after that Laila left the cabin saying that she have something to pass to another staff. Both Abhi and Pragya were alone in the cabin now.

Pragya thought he is so courteous and u Pragya so rude. He would be very much hurt by the way that u talk that day but still he appreciated your work today. Pragya now u should apologise to him for ur rude behaviour that day…

Abhi all the while was keep on using his phone to avoid the contact of Pragya..Pragya started to talk, ” Mr Abhi, I have something to tell you!” Abhi looked up and said ” Yes what is it?” Pragya ” Sorry for that day…I shouldn’t have talked like that” Abhi ” Which day are u talking about Ms Pragya? I can’t remember..” Pragya ” In the hospital that day…” Abhi ” Sorry Ms Pragya I am not sure what are u refering to and it would be better if we just talk about work matters” Pragya got annoyed by the way he responded and also understood that it was her fault that made him to speak that way…

By then Laila had came back and the meeting was wrapped up and Laila said we will all meet tommorow at the venue where the musical event would occur.

Pragya on her way back home was thinking that she could have been more polite that day. She thought somehow she should make him forgive her but she did not have the idea of how she is going to do that!

The next day….
Pragya arrived earlier to the venue and was waiting for Abhi and Laila to come. She saw Abhi coming first and went towards him to greet him. But he just walked pass her… Pragya, Oh my god! He is still angry with me! Of course he will be but it’s ok by today I will have to get forgiveness from him!

Laila also reached there and all three were looking around the area and were discussing about what are the things that can be done. Pragya at times took glance at Abhi and he too was noticing that. Abhi in his mind, why is she keep on looking at me? Does she want to talk to me? No way I don’t want to talk to her!! Thinking about that day only makes me irritated so i don’t want to talk to her!!

After sometime, All the three of them decided have to lunch together and went to a near by restaurant…

Pragya was again sitting in a position where she was facing Abhi as Abhi was sitting beside Laila. Pragya smiled at Abhi but he never smiled in response. She felt bad but never expressed it in her face. But Abhi could see that she was feeling bad as her eyes had expressed those feelings of being hurt. All had lunch together talking about the event and at times about other work matter.

Pragya felt time was running out but still don’t know how to make him forgive her!

Suddenly, Laila received a call and after attending it she said she have some urgent work and have to leave now…She asked them to carry on and will catch up with them later…

Pragya thought may be now I can talk to him freely but just then Abhi ” Laila come I shall drop u! As i have also almost finished my lunch!” Laila ” No Abhi! My friend is picking me up and he should be here soon!” Abhi ” Ok fine. So Ms Pragya so shall we leave too? As u have also finished your meal!” Pragya ” Yes sure!” But Pragya was disappointed that she missed the chance again.

They all left the restaurant and Laila left with her friend first. And Pragya took out her phone to check something and found that her phone’ battery was very low to make a call! Abhi was beside her and noticed that panickness in her face. But he never asked her about it.

Pragya ” Mr Abhi can i make a call from your phone? As my phone’s battery is very low!” Abhi ignored her and was looking at somewhere else….

Pragya, what is this? Now he is ignoring me when I am asking for help! So much of anger towards me! No Pragya you really need his help now! Just ask him again…

Pragya in a loud voice ” Mr Abhi I am asking you something!” Abhi ” Huh? U asked me something? Sorry I was looking at something and was lost in thoughts…” Pragya ” Oh it’s ok but can i use your phone for a while to make a call as my phone’s battery is low!” Abhi ” Ok sure!” He passed his phone to her while he was still looking at something… Pragya after making the call passed the phone to him and was surprised to found him in tears….

Pragya wondered what made him to be in tears and looked at the direction that he was keep on looking… She saw a small kid running from the chase of his mum… Pragya realised that he was missing his mum now which made him to be emotional.

Pragya ” If u don’t mind can I ask u something? ” Abhi “Hmm u can ask!” Pragya ” Are u missing ur mum now?” Abhi ” Haan yes very badly!” Pragya ” Missing someone will only make you to want them badly but you have to think that the person you miss is always with and within you so that no matter what happens you won’t feel that they are far from you… Sometimes it’s better to think that those who had went far away from you to be always near you as in that way you will not miss them…”

Abhi was amazed by the way that Pragya talked to him and felt whatever she said was true enough…I shouldn’t miss my mum! I should feel that she is always with me…

Abhi ” Thanks for the friendly advice!” Pragya ” It’s not really an advice more of my thoughts that I shared with u!” Abhi ” And I know you have been trying to say sorry for that day but I think we shall just forget about it! I should also say sorry to u for our first meeting!” Pragya ” As u said we shall just forget about our previous meetings! So no need to say sorry!” Abhi ” So shall we be friends?” Pragya ” I don’t believe in friendship and love as all this only gives complications in life! So sorry for that but we can still talk as colleagues!”

Abhi was once again surprised by the thoughts of Pragya and didn’t know what to reply… Pragya said that she have to leave now and left from there and as for Abhi he was wondering as how can someone don’t believe in friendship and love!!!

Pragya was glad that he is not angry with her anymore…But she was also wondering why she felt very hurt when he ignored her..
