Chapter 52

“That was embarrassing. I was physically present but my mind was totally somewhere else. I could still remember how they were all staring at me. I should have kept my mouth shut and I wouldn’t have embarrassed myself”, she was talking out loud lying on her bed looking at the ceiling. When everybody was talking, she had completely drifted away and had completely been thinking about her plans and how to implement them. She had also been thinking of calling Akshar to discuss a few things that was on her mind. Suddenly she had come to the realization where she was, and had tried to jump into the conversations and after a couple of topics; she had asked Shyam and Kathy how they met.

She had completely missed out when her brother and Kathy had spoken earlier. Everybody had stared at her and after making some fun, let it go since she had looked tired and they all knew how she could get if they gang up and start teasing her. She had excused herself with a false headache and Chari’s son Pryag had brought her back to her house. She got up and picked up her layout that she had been working on and started reviewing it. She had some questions. She wanted to learn more, especially about expanding her business. She wanted to do it fast, she had already opened up a branch at another location and Chari was completely under charge of that one and that branch dealt with just paper related products and was going smooth.

Couple of year’s back she had made an offer to Chari that he could not refuse. She had made him her business partner, and that had proved to an excellent decision on her part. Chari had been more than an assert to her business, his experience had lifted the weight of her shoulders and they had expanded and she had asked Chari to completely take care of the new expansion. It concentrated on a smaller client and fewer products but was doing well. She had not interfered in his decisions and she hardly knew her employees over there, since Chari had complete overall control. Now she wanted to expand and grow rapidly and was finding ways to achieve that.
