Chapter 29
Megha's POV
I got ready and went downstairs. Bhabhi was looking at me curiously, But I didn't say anything I was just blushing.
After we all had breakfast, we left for Priya's office. Her dad's office was done. I saw all the arrangements for her office. Everything was going very smoothly. Rahul was also there so Mehul was very happy to meet him. They started talking.
Priya was very much pleased with uncle's office. She said,
" Wow !! Megha, you changed dad's office, with just a few changes here and there, you are gifted. I can't wait to see mine." She was as excited as a 6-year-old child.
" By the way, is everything alright now between you and Mehul, as you have a glow on your face." She whispered near my ear and I blushed. She smiled at me and wished me luck.
"All the best for your honeymoon, you are glowing even more." I smiled at her.
Rahul complimented me on my work. I thanked him. We had just left from there when Sagar called up Mehul and invited us for his birthday party, which was on the next day. Mehul accepted the invitation and assured him that we would come.
Vimal Bhai called me up to ask if I have started working on our showrooms. I told him that I would start it today.
Bhai said, " Megha, I know it is really difficult to manage so many things at the same time and as our Dadi Ji is not very well, so I am not able to come and help you. I am appointing a few people who are going to help you with your work. They will come and meet you in by today itself in Mudit's office. I have appointed one Manager for the handling handicrafts too, as you have to manage your work too along with shah uncle's showrooms. He will report to you. I am sending the handicrafts collection as well. That will be with you in 10 days. So please with help of all these people, I want you to start working immediately. We need to open the showrooms before the festive season starts. "
" Yes, bhai I understand that. I will go to the mall and see the dimensions again will work on them and will start working on the showrooms by day after tomorrow. Thanks for the team. Don't worry I'll get it done very soon. Take care of everyone especially Dadi Ji. Love you, Bhai."
I turned towards Mehul, he was on phone with Mudit Bhai.
" Megha bhai is calling us to office as a team is there to assist you. " I nodded and we went to the office.
" Bhai, we are here." Mehul knocked at bhayia's cabin. He smiled and asked us to come in.
" Mehul, Vimal has sent a team of 5 people to assist her. A manager will be coming to manage the handicrafts in a day or two. You will have to share your office with her for the time being, till her office in the mall is ready. "
" Ok Bhai, As you say."
" Bhaiya, I need to work on all the showrooms now, so I have to go and have a look at them. Please tell me the specifications." Bhaiya smiled and nodded
" Mehul will tell you what all is needed as he is going to handle all the showrooms. "
" Ok, bhaiya. "
We both went to Mehul's cabin. It was very spacious and I could work here.
" So how did you like my office? "
" Our office for the time being. I hope you don't mind sharing your office with me till my office is ready."
" Of course, I don't. " He was smiling like anything. Weird !!
" So shall we call the team which Bhai sent to assist me? "
"Sure." He called his PA to send the team inside.
There's were 5 people, 3 men and 2 women.
The introductions were done and I was glad to know that this team was quite competent.
" I am glad to meet all of you. I would like to tell you that we have very limited time and we have to work hard, do that we have our showrooms ready well before the festive season. "
They all nodded and looked very enthusiastic about this.
Mehul was looking at me continuously. I looked at him and raised one of my eyebrows and he smiled at me.
We all went to have a look at the showrooms and I gave them a brief description of what is needed. I knew what I wanted for my showroom so I told them. To work on it. They all got busy in taking measurements etc
I told them about the colour schemes and all the specifications about display shelves and lighting. All I had to do was select the designs now.
Then Mehul and I went to Mehul's showroom and asked about what all they need to have in the showroom.
" Now please tell me, what you have in your mind. I mean what is needed in your showroom. I have a basic theme in my mind. So you will need lots of display shelves and counters. Lots of bright lights, mirrors and your office. You need two kinds of settings one for traditional designs and another for modern or contemporary designs. So you need two kinds of furniture and accessories. What else ?"
I was making some notes for my reference and was asking him something but I didn't get any answer. So I looked at him he was looking at me and smiling.
Did he pay any heed to whatever I said??
What's wrong with him ?? He is always looking at me.
" Hello are you here, Mr Shah?"
" I am right here, Mrs Shah."
" Then why are you not answering my question I have been asking you questions and you are just looking at me. "
He came closer to me and said, " I was looking at my wife. Do you have a problem with that?" He raised his eyebrow at me.
I just rolled my eyes and said, "Mehul I am serious, please tell me. I have to do so many things please tell me what you want."
" Do you want to know what I want ?? " He came very close to me and whispered near my ear. A chill ran through my body.
I stepped back but he caught my hand. Just then my team seemed to be coming in this showroom after taking dimensions of another one.
He left my hand and smirked at me. " We will continue to talk about, what I want later on."
Everyone was in the showroom and Mehul told us his specifications and I was impressed to know that he had thought of every little thing. We all nodded and my team wrote down everything. I told them about the colour schemes of this showroom as well. Later, I told them to explore the market and come with sample shade cards, wallpapers, tiles, lights by the end of the day. They all nodded and left.
" Let's go and have lunch. " He caught hold of my hand and we went to a nice and cosy restaurant.
Mehul's POV
" You know this is one of my favourite ones and the food is also awesome."
She smiled at me, a waiter came to show us to the table. He handed us the menu cards and smiled.
Megha was reading that and the waiter was looking at her. I got annoyed and told him to come after a few minutes...
" So, if it is one of your favourite ones, why don't you suggest what is good here? " She asked and I told her.
I called the waiter again and he came to take our order. He again kept on looking at Megha and was standing too close to her, I was angry now.
" Now that you have taken the order, will you please leave and I would like to talk to your manager. Send him." I said in an angry tone. He went away immediately.
" What happened Mehul??? " Megha got curious about the sudden change in my mood.
" Nothing... "
" Then, why are you angry all of a sudden??"
I didn't say anything. The manager came and I told him to fire the waiter as he didn't know how to behave with the guests. He asked me what happened. I was very angry now and I told him about his behaviour. The manager apologized for the waiter's behaviour.
Megha caught my hand,
" Mehul, please calm down. And you please send some other waiter. "
She distracted my mind by asking as what was I saying in the mall when the whole team arrived. I smiled and said, " I can't tell you that with so many people around, as that would be only between us. " She blushed profusely and was looking so edible that I wanted her for lunch.
