And the next fifteen minutes everyone was hearing Samaira present her idea with a hint of nervousness. She was just hoping that she gets saved.
"And do you think the cost per unit will be handled? "
"Ummm Sir we can surely find a way" Samaira was a little taken aback by the question "This specimen Sameer Malhotra was really sharp"
"Mr Sharma ... "
"Sir"
" Handle that part and we will be growing exponentially this season as well"
With that Sameer Malhotra stood up buttoning up his coat and left the hall with his assistant following him in long strides.
"Bach gaye" Samaira sighed fanning herself while Kunal gave her an appreciative glance "Really good Samaira.... "
Samaira smiled but then spoke "How do you guys handle him... He is so.... so"
"So... " Kunal chuckled
"Dangerous" She shook her head and started arranging the documents Kunal brought to the meeting.

Later in the evening, all the employees were having momos at a stall after work next to the office premises when a car moved past them.
"Ye Sameer sir ki gaadi thi na... "
"Haan biwi ka farmaan aaya hoga tabhi itni jaldi woosh" Aditya joked
"He is not married" Kunal enlightened them.
"Huh... isn't he 34 or something"
"Haan toh unki personal life hai.. tumhe itni kya chinta khaye jaa rahi" Samaira narrowwd her eyes
"Tere hone wale pati k bare m nhi bol raha behen... aaye vadi unki personal life" Aditya mimicked Samaira who picked two momos from his plate in response.
"Ae Sammy de mere monos"
"Bhool ja" Samaira polished off the whole plate earning chuckles from the group.
"Acha chalo mai jaa rahi hun" She inserted the key in her scooty and rode off.
Meanwhile at the Malhotra mamsion
"Bade Pa" A toddler ran towards Sameer who picked him up and threw in the air and then caught back.
"Sameer plane nahin hai wo" Neeta Malhotra admonished his son who was busy raining kisses on the toddler and the latter was giggling like anything.
Neeta shook his head and joined her husband on the couch "Apne bete k ghar baste hue dekhna hai ya nahi... "
"Basa toh hua hai" Arjun Malhotra shrugged and again shifted his focus to a business magazine
"Arjun mai sare business magazines ghar k bahar phekwa dungi"
One threat and Arjun Malhotra closed the magazine and threw it a little far away on the table fearing it might get into his wife's hands.
"Ab he doesn't want to get married toh hum zabardasti toh nhi kar sakte na"
"Lekin bolna humaara kaam hai aur mai toh roz bolti hun aap bhi shuru karein kal se... aur kaun sa hum ise apni pasand ki ladki se shaadi karne se rok rahe...koi pasand ho toh bataaye na..." Nita grumbled and Sameer could hear it all but paid no attention. He didn't want to get married. No, there was no past which was stopping him and there were no specific reasons as well. He just didn't feel the need of a life partner..... as yet.
"Sameer chalo jaldi ready ho jao.. nahi toh Sarthak sara ghar sar pe utha lega"
"Ji Chachi"
It was the post birthday cake cutting of the baby boy of the house. The birthday was a day before and it had already been celebrated but he also wanted to cut one last cake with the whole family and here are the Malhotras ready to fulfill his demand. Meet the baby boy of the house-Sarthak Malhotra, a nineteen year old boy who acted like a child stuck in a much older body.
Right now he was busy beautifying his face in his room and everyone was strictly instructed to bring gifts however small it may be... perks of being the ladla of the house.
Having three elder brothers by a margin of ten years added to the favours. Moreover 3 more elder cousin brothers. The elder Malhotra couple just experimented for the fourth time checking if they could get an opposite gender but tough luck. But Sarthak Malhotra got his due as he was loved like anything by every member be it the tiny tots of the third generation or the elderly members of the first generation of the family.
-----
"Happy Birthday to me wohooo" Sarthak blew the candles and cut the cake with a big smile on his face.
Strapping a latest edition watch on the wrist of his brother, Sameer wished him "Happy Birthday".
Sarthak kissed his cheek in return. But Bhai I w.anted my badi bhabhi" Sarthak pouted
"Sorry and Never" Sameer sighed and patted his cheek
"Never say never bro" Sarthak winked and pushed a big piece of cake in his mouth.
