Hello friends, here is the next chapter. It is more about Ishanya and very less IshOm. I hope you don’t get bored reading this.

Chapter-27

I am your friend

Omkara is in his art gallery, staring at the paintings of Ishanya. He is trying to read her eyes, but as usual he failed, because in every painting, her eyes says different story, he is not able to fix on one thing. ‘Just like her, her eyes too are unpredictable.’ He thought.

After knowing that he wasn’t the cause of her distress on DJ night made him relieved but confused too as he thought what could have been the reason of her worry.

He wants to know the reason and make her happy by solving it, but he couldn’t do anything as she said it’s very personal and denied telling him about it. He is scared to getting hurt due to Ishanya’s mood swings.
But he is ready to take it too cause of her. Now that he knows that he likes her, he is being careful not to let his feelings affect her in negative way. He continued to stare at the paintings admiring her.

In Oberoi Industries, Shivaay has been in the tej’s cabin with his father. They were discussing about the merger offer which Ishanya offered.
“She hadn’t talked about it with me and met you guys, why?” Shivaay wandered out loud.

“Why? You are Just a CEO of this company Shivaay and I am the MD of this, so she would talk to me rather than you, right?” Tej said with his haughtiness.

“No, bade papa I didn’t mean it that way…..” He tried to explain but cut short by Tej saying, “Now don’t waste time with all this Shivaay. Let’s talk about the deal.”

“Yes, bhaiyya. The deal is obviously profitable but we have to leave the Columbia’s project for this and we also need to pay the compensation to the other company which we merged with in Columbia.” Shakti said analyzing all the facts.

“We need to take a decision soon. For that we need to consult our legal advisor.” Said tej

“And also with their PR to know about the details of merger. She’ll be here in half an hour.” Shivaay said.

“Ok, let’s have the meeting with their PR and our legal advisor, Mr. Rana.” Tej said

Shivaay looked upset at this as Ishanya hadn’t told anything about the merger and talked to his papa and bade papa that too making sure that he is not present there. He stormed out of the cabin as he felt there was no need of him and he is angry at Ishanya for this.

He reached corridor and looked out of the window lost in thoughts. He called Ishanya to ask her why she did this.

“Hi Shivaay, how are you?” Ishanya asked cheerfully.

“Stop it Ishanya. I know you don’t want to be my friend then why pretend it?!” Shivaay pounced on her.

“What the hell!! When did I say that I don’t want to be your friend?” Ishanya asked.

“Stop the drama Ishanya. If you feel that I am your friend, you would have talked about the merger with me not with bade papa.” Shivaay said in anger.

“Shivaay you are my friend that is why I hadn’t talked to you about it.” Ishanya said surprising him.

“What do you mean?” He asked.

“I mean, I don’t mix personal and professional relations. Now that you are my friend I don’t talk business with you, simple!!” she said making him feel relieved.

“That’s it? You know what kind of negative thoughts have been passing in mind since I found out about this?” Shivaay said breathing in relief.

“I know, you must have been thinking that I deliberately chose a day when you are not present and that I might scheming against your family or business and that is why I hadn’t told you anything!! Right?” Ishanya said dramatically.

“Yeah, that too.” Shivaay said making her surprise.

“That too means, what else had you thought?” Ishanya asked smiling at him.

“I thought you made me your friend to use for your needs.” He said in low tone thinking that she’ll definitely get angry because of this but to his surprise he heard her laughter and then saying,

“God!! Shivaay, what kind of thoughts you gets, seriously!!” and laughed more.

Shivaay smiled and then said, “It’s good that we are friends Ishanya we can do much successful business.”

“No, I don’t talk business with friends, that’s my policy, you can’t change it.” Ishanya said in her attitude.

“But you are doing business with my family?” He asked in confusion.

“Exactly, with your family, not with you.” She replied making him smile.

“You are very different Ishanya.” Shivaay said to her.

“Thank you.” She said taking the compliment.

“Ok, Nandita would be there anytime, bye will talk to you later.” Ishanya said and finished the call.

“Not just different, weird too!!” he said after finishing the call but unfortunately, Nandita heard him saying this.

“Who is weird, Shivaay?” she asked

Shivaay turned around in surprise to see her there and said, “Our friend, Ishanya. Who else?”

“I agree with you. She is the one and only piece in the world, no one can understand her!!” she said agreeing with them.

“Seriously, what is the problem in working with friends? Anyone would love to work with their friends. But, Ishanya is completely different.” He said complaining about her while walking with Nandita.

“But Ishanya is like this only.” She said to him.

“Do you know how she knows ‘schinichi saito?’” she asked him.

“No, heard that she worked with him few years back.” He replied.

“She used to clean his car every day for earning, when she was in Japan.” She said shocking Shivaay.

“What the wuck?!!” Shivaay exclaimed

“Yes Shivaay. She used to clean cars, she achieved all this from scratch.” She said while Shivaay still in the shock.

“Do you know, if she wanted she could have opened her fashion house in India without any help with her parents’ property? But she hadn’t chosen it. She chose to struggle, she choose to
earn every penny by herself. I heard that she used to be hungry for days because she have to save money for her start-up.” She said to Shivaay making him more shocked.

“She is like that. For her, her self-respect is the top most priority. And another reason of her choosing to struggle is her father’s death. She doesn’t talk about it, but I can sense it. It must have been so difficult for her to cope up with her father’s loss that’s why she chose struggle so that she can forget the sad demise of her father in another sadness.” Nandita explained to Shivaay.

He was listening to everything in silence and when she said the whole thing he thought, ‘whenever, I think I get to know you completely, every time something or the other comes up about you revealing your other side. When will you stop surprising me Ms. Ishanya?’ he thought.

‘But now I got to know about something, which Nandita doesn’t know, it is not only your father’s demise which forced you to take the path of struggle, it is because of that MMS too, you might be running away from it’s memories by struggling. I salute your fighting spirit, you lost everything and then rose as a phoenix from your ashes without anyone’s support.’ He thought to himself and entered tej’s cabin with Nandita.

When they were discussing about the merger in tej’s cabin, Shivaay’s assistant got a call from security and said that it is emergency and he is needed there.
Shivaay went to the corridor with his assistant, where the security guard had asked them to come. When they reached there a peon was standing there with a couple of files in his hand.

“What’s the matter?” Shivaay asked the security guard.

“Sir, this person is taking these files and this money somewhere secretly. He got tripped by co-incidence and I happened to see this.” He said showing the two bundles of money.

“From where you theft this? Tell me!!” Shivaay roared.

“I swear sir, I hadn’t stolen this money. These are given to me by that sir to disappear these files.” Said that peon

“Which sir?” Shivaay asked peon by catching his collar.

“Harshvardhan sir.” He replied.

“What is the proof that he only gave you this and what are these files?” Shivaay asked taking those files from him and gave them to his assistant to study.

“Sir, how should I prove now? I am telling truth sir, this money and files are given to me by harsh sir only.” He said crying.

“let’s go to cctv room.” Shivaay said and the security guard forced the peon with them.

In the cameras they saw harshvardhan signing the peon to come to the washroom. When peon went inside he was empty handed after few minutes harshvardhan came out looking nervous and after that peon came outside with the files and money bundles are kept inside the file.

“But when harshvardhan went to wash room he too is empty handed.” Shivaay wandered out loud and peon said, “Sir kept the files in his shirt and money was there in his pockets.”

Shivaay seethed in anger and turned to his assistant to know about the details in the files.

“Sir, these are the contract files of Columbia project. And there is cheating involved sir, it says after the opening of factory we have no rights on the production unit and we are just a mere shareholders of the factory.” His assistant said to his shock.

“Oh! Today we were about to discuss this project to find any loop holes in the contract that’s why he did this!!” Shivaay concluded.

“He might have joined hands with that Columbian company to con us, sir.” Said Shivaay’s assistant.

Shivaay stormed to harshvardhan’s cabin with his assistant, security guard and peon.
