********************

Aryan arrives early at office with Ranjith. Employees had now many news to gossip. A few were concerned on the team that would work under Pradeep. They knew that the decision will be made by Aryan and they will not have any choices.

Aryan informed Ranjith to call the executives and team leads for a meeting. Probably the announcement of the team to be worked under Pradeep. The meeting was planned post lunch and Pradeep was also invited for a formal introduction.

A: Ranjith allot the 42nd floor for Pradeep and Maya. Get their workspace arranged and let the employees representing DC group and ARC will work under the same wing.

R: Sure. We may need a week time to implement the complete set up because I already spoke to the infra structure team.

A: That would be great. Just keep Maya posted on the advancement of the workspace completion.

R: Sure sir.

A: Any news about Maya or Chandrasekar?

R: Sir, Maya is still in her friend Lekha's home. Chandrasekar has not taken any intiative as of now.

A: Good. Watch out.

The lunch break was filled with a commotion in the cafeteria. There were many gossips. Few had guessing that Sanju would attend the meeting. Many remind quiet but still few had mocking.

Employee1 : Do you think Sanjana madam will come to today's meeting?

Employee2: I think so. May be she will come in silk saree like she came for the party.

Employee3: She was just PA how could she handle any business operations

E1: She is typical boring type who will wear saree and stay at home waiting for the husband's return from office.

E2: I expected someone bold and confident person will marry Aryan sir but now they are married already a year ago.

E3: If she is really Aryan sir's type why would he keep his marriage a secret for a one year.

E4: guys this is ridiculous to speak at their back

E5: Aryan sir told he loved her and got married. Whatever be her character or attitude that is nothing to do with us. Aryan sir loves her did n't you all see his love for her at the party.

E4: My god they were stunning couple made for each other. His love for his wife and their marriage is still the headlines.

E5: More over if he gets to know your gossip behind him about his love wife then swear he will fire.

E1: Whatever may be I just told my opinion and what is wrong in that.

E2: Atleast that Maya was looking more perfect with attitude for him

Pavithra who was listening to their rubbish lost her patience.

P: Shut up. How dare you guys to speak about Sanju. Better mind your words. Show your guts and speak up this in the meeting at his face then you will know Aryan sir's love for his wife. If you don't have any shit to speak to him then train your tongue.

It was the time for the meeting so everybody dispersed and marched towards the conference hall. They were waiting for Aryan to arrived at the meeting and soon he came to the conference hall with Ranjith and Pradeep.

Ranjith and Pradeep were seated close to Aryan on either side and still one seat was unoccupied next to Aryan. Pavithra was next to Ranjith. There was 5 minutes left for the meeting to start by that time the door was pushed open and Sanju entered in a formal white shirt with black blazer and pant. Her hair was waving in loose curls. She wore an one inch heel sandals and a pearl studd adorned her ear.

Everyboady were stunned to see her entirely in a different style with attitude. Those who threw gossips behind her were looking with jawdrop. Aryan himself stood from his seat and greeted her which made everybody to stand at their seat to greet her. Wishing everybody she sat next to Aryan.

A: Welcome guys. We are here on a official meet for ARC cosmetics. Its my honour to introduce Mrs. Sanjana Aryan Chaitanya who ranked state first in higher school, gold medalist in business studies. She also owns a MBA in Finance Management. She will be one of the board member and the Chairperson of ARC Cosmetics.

On hearing the qualification of Sanju all the mind and mouth of those who thought ill of her were shut. All gave a loud applause for Sanju.

A: Next our new CEO for ARC Cosmetics. He is well experinced business personality and has his own business operations handling advertisement and marketing. Now he will take sole responsibility for ARC cosmetics.

Welcome Sanjana and Pradeep.

Now as you all already now we will have few of our executives who will report directly to Pradeep. Any designation will have one employee from ARC and one from DC groups. So we have shortlisted a few who will start working with Pradeep. Now I request Mrs. Sanjana to address you.

S: Hello everyone. Many of you are aware of me already so nothing to introduce anymore so lets get into business. As Aryan said I have list of employees who will work under Mr. Pradeep. ARC owns major share in partnership so even after the partnership starts all will be still ARC employess and your welfare will be taken care. So no worries. Initial business SOP may be difficult but lets make this success. ARC employees will have nothing to do with DC employees. As usual you will continue your work and report to Pradeep.

I hope to get the complete effort to make this partnership a huge success. I believe in all of you. Ms. Pavithra will be the finance lead for ARC cosmetics. Congrats Pavithra.

Pavithra was surprised to hear that she was being promoted as a financial lead. She thanked and assured to give her complete skills in into the business. Maya was shocked to hear this announcement but she could do nothing.

Next we will have a new employee Ms. Keerthy. She will be the marketing lead and will join directly on the business day. Rest of the teams will get in your official mail.

Pradeep you can speak to them.

Pr: Thank you Aryan and Sanjana. Well thanks to the team in advance who will be the part of our new venture. We will speak and discuss more soon. Thank you.

A: And thats for the day. We wind up with this.

Everybody left leaving Aryan, Ranjith, Sanjana and Pradeep.

Pr: Ranjith we need to meet Maya to have a formal business talk.

R: Sure Ranjith.

A: Pradeep you can start the recruitment process if you need to hire more employees. Mainly just be quick to hire your PA.

Pr: Sure Aryan, I will do it. Now let me just look at the wok progress at the floor.

A: Sure Ranjith take Pradeep with you.

Pradeep and Ranjith left to the floor for inspection. Aryan and Sanjana went to Aryan's cabin. Aryan sat in his comfy chair and she sat in his lap.

A: So wifeyy you look classy and sexy in your business attire.

S: Shut up Mr. husband. You always find me sexy in every costume.

A: Not all, I swear.

S: So were do I work from

A: You will be always next to me. Your existing cabin will be made ready with some more interior.

S:hmmm. Maya will be in our building.

A: She will be many floors down to us and Pradeep, Pavithra, Keerthy will be on the same floor. Any suspected activity from her will get caught to anyone of our person's attention. The entire building will be under 24x7 CCTV survelliance. Your cabin will be given access only to me, Ranjith, Pavithra and Keerthy. Nobody else will enter. You need not worry.

S:I m not scared about my safety Aryan. I just fear if she could play with our relation.

A: Loosu pondati let her to any dirty play just remember we are going to be together.

S: Seri ok. but naa loosa? She hit him in his chest

A: ahhhh. valikudhu maa seri now tell me what have you decided?

S: For what?

A: Ennadi. I told you to decide our honeymoon spot. Before this business starts lets go for some fresh air and energize our body.

Honeymoon pona enga energy irukkum she spoke under breathe.

A: Enakku kettuchu di. You don't worry I will take care if you lose energy.

S: vaaya moodu Aryan.

A: Seri tell me. I will tell Ranjith to make arrangements.

S: hmmm Maldives ok va?

A: Unakku ok na enakku ok. Place doesn't matter to me its just about you and me being together.

S: We are already together in our room.

A: Evlo naal than ore room la

She shut his outh with her hand

A: Hey enna ore room la adanju irukkom nu solla vandhen. Nee enna nenacha?

S:ah..dh. dhaa. bhaa naa onnum nenaikalaye

A: KD unna pathi enakku theriyadhu but adhuvum reason dhan.

S: Nee romba bad boy poda

A: enga idha night room la solludi papom.

S: Naa kelamburen.

He hugged her tight not letting her go and inhaled her scent from the crook of her neck.

A: Ice cream, sweet saptu romba naal agudhu Sanju ma. Ice cream kondu vara sollava

S: No. Honeymoon pora vara unakku onnum kedaiyadhu.

A: Adipaavi idhellam romba aniyayam. I won't accept.

S: Unna yaaru accept panna solli ketta. I decided.

A: Unnala ippo escape aga mudiyuma paaru apram night pathi yosikalam.

He lifed her and went to his relaxation. She was wiggling her legs but he held her tight. Closing the doors with his hind leg he threw her on the bed.

By evening Ranjith entered Aryan's cabin and saw he was busy working in his laptop.

R: Sir, shall I get you coffee?

A: Yes Ranjith coffee for me and hot chocolate for Sanju. romba nerama headache la thongura.

R: Seringa sir.

Ranjith gave the beverages and left the cabin.

Aryan took his coffee and hot chocolate and entered the room and saw her clothes still lying on the floor and Sanju was sleeping. He woke her to have the hot chocolate.

A: Wifeyy have this hot chocolate you will feel energized then lets go home.

Sanju sat leaning on his shoulders holding the comforter and had the hot drinks which made her brisk. Soon she got dressed to leave.

S: Don't ever expect me in your cabin henceforth Aryan. First veetukku poitu unnoda things ellam eduthu second floor master bedroom la shift panna solra iru.

A: Pannu naa pinnadiye unnaiyum thookitu poiduven, master bedroom innum perusu theriyuma.

S: Ayyo kadavule . Aryan shut up and come lets go home.
