Chapter 1: chapter 1

A girl  in her twenties with big beautiful eyes, slender neck and glass like skin stood   in front of lord Ganesha in a temple. She prayed in her heart with her eyes closed." God, thank you sooo much for making me a college topper. Please make my another wish  true. I want to become a jewellery designer,  that's my dream. I will talk to  mom today about it . please make sure  she  agrees for this, please. "Her results were out  yesterday and she successfully completed her graduation.Her father died   in an accident when she was a child.  Her mother took up a  job  to take care of her."  Enough Sanjana, God's ears will bleed if you keep on talking to him,Come let's go, give some time to him to process your request" , Nidhi teased."Shut up , Nidhi , He always listens to me, don't come in between me and God""Sorry god,ignore her, please make my mother agree,please, please", Sanjana  closed  her eyes and prayed once again and finally opened her eyes when Nidhi interrupted her once again. She made a puppy face and walked towards Nidhi.Nidhi and Sanjana are good friends, they met during their graduation and become close in a very short span of time.From the temple they both walked towards Sanjana's house.Sanjana's mom was cooking in the kitchen. When she saw them she came out and said, "Nidhi, It's been a long you didn't  visit  me..""Sorry aunty, was struck in cousin's wedding shopping." ,Nidhi replied."Mom, need some coffee, please call me when you prepare it, we will go into our room" ,Sanjana said.Both the girls entered Sanjana's room.Nidhi saw the magazine on the table, she took it in her hands and screamed ,"OMG ,Sanjana, Mr.Aditya Mehta is on the cover page of the Forbes Magazine"Sanjana took the magazine in her hands and admired the person on the cover page.'yeah, that's the reason  I bought this magazine". Sanjana replied, her voice was soft.Sanjana's mom entered the room with coffee cups and saw the magazine in Sanjana's hands, she took it and said, " I told you many times don't think about him much, he is out  of your league"Sanjana draped  her hands around her mom's neck and said,"Mom, I know he is unreachable, I just admire him for his intelligence and the way he took his business to the next level at such a young age. I commend him the way  he  adopted old age homes and orphan houses.I just have respect for   him mom, I too want to become successful like him in future. He is just my inspiration, don't think much and I know, he is out of my league,so don't worry"Sanjana's mom sighed and left the room, but  still she was worried about her daughter. When Sanjana's mom left, Nidhi closed the door, folded her hands, raised her eyebrow and asked, " Sanjana don't lie to me atleast, I know you love him"Sanjana denied and said, " You think too much Nidhi"."Oh really !! ",She  opened Sanjana's wardrobe and pointed at the pics pasted on the walls of  it  and asked ," then why are his pics here hmmm??"Sanjana took Nidhi's mobile and showed her screensaver and asked her, "who is this?? hmmm??""Don't you know him, he is Hrithik Roshan ,my favourite hero.""Does it mean you will marry him??", Sanjana asked."How can I marry him?, infact why will he marry me?" Nidhi blushed."Exactly, I too like him the way you  like Hrithik Roshan , so you and my mom  are unnecessarily making ruckus" ,Sanjana replied.Nidhi took a deep breath and said " ok ok , I can't argue with you my  mother. But I have some news to share with you.""What is it??" Sanjana asked."You know, we are having Graduation day next week right?", Nidhi said."Yes, what's new in this news?" Sanjana replied ,  while  folding her clothes which made her room messy."Guess  who the chief guest  is??" There was excitement in Nidhi's voice."Is it Hrithik Roshan?" Sanjana chuckled.Nidhi raised her eyebrow and said," it's  Aditya Mehta".Sanjana's hands which were folding the clothes stopped in mid air, her eyes widened , she threw  the clothes in her hand on bed and came near to Nidhi and asked  excitedly" Are you sure Nidhi, it's him?""Yes , confirmed news dear, I heard he is an ex-student of our principal sir. Upon his request ,he agreed to come to our college. As you are a college topper , you may even receive a  medal from him", Nidhi winked.Sanjana's heart was beating rapidly , she will be meeting him directly after one week.The person whom she admires,   the  man of her dreams  , she can  see and meet him  directly. Her eyes were sparkling with excitement and a cute smile appeared on her lips. She couldn't control her excitement, hugged Nidhi tightly, "thank you Nidhi, you made my day".*****Sanjana's POVAs today is Sunday,  In the evening I saw  mom sitting on the couch in the living room watching T.V.I walked towards her, sat on the couch and laid my head on her lap.She smiled , rubbed my head and said ,"What do you want, my princess? Is there something you want to ask me?"I  surprisingly got up from her lap and said, "Mom, how do you know , I have something to ask you??"I was surprised.She smiled and said, " because ,I am your mom, nobody knows my child more than her, so just tell me what is it??"" Mom, I  actually want to join a Jewellery designing course  can I?? ",I asked.My mom sighed, took my hands in hers and said, "Sanjana,  you know well how much I struggled to give you the best education. I too want you to fulfil your dream dear, but still I am filling the loan I took from the bank for your graduation. once it is done, I can apply for a fresh loan, then  you can join in the course you wish for, just give me a little time. I hope you understand."I nodded in agreement and put my head on her lap, and said to myself,"I will not allow mom to take any loans further, I will take up a job, earn money  to continue my passion. "I always love to lay in her lap, I feel nothing can replace the comfort level of mother's lap.Little later, I got up and laid my head on her shoulder, hooked her arm with mine and started watching T.V with her.*********Days passed and soon it was Graduation day, I and Nidhi went to college, took our robes and wore them.We took many pictures, but my heart and brain are with Aditya Mehta.Nidhi looked at me, she felt I was nervous and lost, she snapped her fingers and said," Madam ,where are you lost??look how stiff and lost you look in the pics."I pouted and said," Nidhi , I am nervous yaar, butterflies are flying in my stomach"Nidhi winked  and said," is it because of him? hmmm?I nodded and said, "don't forget to take  pics when he is awarding me a degree."" My mother ,This is the 100th time you said this to me since morning", ``I will try my best to  take   photos in all angles .so don't eat my brain, let's go into the hall, come",She dragged me into the auditorium.************On the other side, there was a meeting going on with the high level business development team. A young man in his mid twenties was looking at the presentation, his eyes were cold and his vision was  on the presentation. All the people sitting in the room were sweating in spite  of A.C.He stopped the presentation  by raising his hand, his voice low ," Mr. Daniel, what was the target we decided to achieve this quarter??""150 million sir, '' Daniel replied with a sweat in his hands.Then the figure says it's just 100 million, where did we lag? Aditya's voice was low."If I don't see the expected figure in the next quarter, I may have to replace the entire team. "His words made people in the room tremble with fear."definitely sir, definitely",Daniel replied."I need actions, not words Mr.Daniel", Aditya replied."Will meet in the next quarter", Aditya concluded and left the meeting room.Everyone took a deep  breath once he left.Everyone felt they even stopped breathing, when they were sitting with him. His strong aura made them squeezed to their chairs. Aditya straight away went to his room and asked his assistant  about his schedule for today's.His assistant reminded him about today's graduation day ceremony. Aditya took his coat and walked outside the office and drove  his Porsche towards the college.
