"Still, you don't mind me hitting on her right?" he asked seriously, pointing his thumb to the door behind him - indicating my PA.

"By all means hit on her, but don't you mind that she's already slept with me?" I asked him curiously.

 "Daddy don't mind as long as it's good" Nikhil said, winking and making me chuckle.

"So....this is what you've been doing for the past two months of my absence? Hitting on your P.A and humping like rabbit?" he asked, sitting comfortably in his chair and putting up his feet on my desk.

"I haven't been hitting on my P.A and I've not been humping like rabbit!! Although, Priya is still behind me...and sometimes, in front of me" I said, winking.

"You...are.....hands down brah!" Nikhil said, getting up and mock-bowing to me.

"Thank you...thank you... now tell me, why are you here?" I asked, my tone business-like.

I know Nikhil will never visit me without any reason!

"How can you assume that need a reason to visit my dear old..." he was saying in a voice suggesting he's hurt, but I know him better so I cut him off - "Just spill the beans you drama queen!"

"Alright...alright... your mom asked me to convince you to meet..." he was saying, but I cut him off again, angrily this time - "Not again! Man she cannot let me live in peace!" and groaned, running my hand through my hair in frustration.

"Please listen Abhi...she has your good interest at heart! I know how much you love me, but we can't get married! Your parents are against gay-marriage!" Nikhil said seriously and without a trace of a smile on his face.

"Asshole! I'm not gay! And neither are you! Fuck this drama up!" I said irritably, getting up from my chair and walking to the transparent wall behind me - viewing the city below.

"Abhi... you cannot lead the life of a lone wolf! At least meet this girl! Maybe then you can decide! Who knows you might even end up meeting future Mrs. Singhania today?" Nikhil said in a soothing tone.

Oh boy how right was he?! I did meet future Mrs. Singhania that day!!

"Ugh fine! But she shouldn't pester me for another ristha meet for a very long time if this goes in the drains!" I said, turning to face Nikhil as an idea struck to me.

"Sure bro, I'll tell that to her....but you should promise me that you won't try and sabotage this rishtha-meet" Nikhil said in a tone that clearly suggested that he knew what was running in my head.

"Hey! What gives you that idea?" I said with an innocent look on my face,  trying to sound as though I've been offended.

"Please don't insult me or our friendship by this stupid acting of yours!" he said, rolling his eyes.

"Ugh fine! I'll....try" I said finally - I didn't have a choice anyways!

"Cool! So the meet is at the Oberoi Hotel today at 4pm, and it's already 3 right now, so I say get that ass of your's outa that chair and into your car" Nikhil said coolly, making me glare at him.

"Oh and you're supposed to ask the host for a reservation under Mr.Singhania" Nikhil said as an after-thought.

"Fine" I said, gritting my teeth and made way to my car, without even bidding him bye.

After handing my car key to the valet, I walked into the hotel, spreading my aura as I went. As soon as I went into the lobby, I looked in through the transparent wall of the hotel to see if that girl was waiting for me. I did see a few people inside the hotel sitting at their respective tables, but nobody was sitting alone - great! So I have to wait for this girl!
