'He looks more neat in this look, unlike the previous one in which he had grown full beard like a saint. He knows how to make opportunities for himself. That is why when I said I have not changed, he decided to remove his beard and put on this look which I had once said to him that it suited him the best. But you may try your best Rishi, still you will fail to impress me.'

"Good Afternoon Mr.Rishi."

"Good Afternoon. I hope you are ready to fly."

"Yes I am."

"Let's leave now."

As a gentleman's gesture, he first let Aliya to go in and then he went inside. The door was closed and the car was ready to go now. Aliya had goosebumps as soon as she saw the car from inside. She knew Rishi loved cars. She had quivering feet when she glanced around in the car. Never in her life she had traveled or even seen such an expensive car. Rishi saw her reaction and smiled inwardly.

'This will be your's as soon as you say yes, Alu.'

"Sir,may I ask something if you do not mind?"

"Ya sure."

"Was it necessary to go in such an expensive car for such a short distance?"

Rishi giggled when he heard her cute question. Aliya was embarressed by his laugh.

'Why the hell did I asked him?'

"It is nothing like I'm boasting. But every car I have is as expensive as this one. So I had no choice. Aren't you comfortable?"

"If such an expensive car doesn't makes me comfortable then what is the use to pay such a hefty amount for this giant?"

Rishi let out a laugh. Aliya sneered at his poor sense of humor.

"Isn't Mr.Gera coming?"

"Nope, he has to do some urgent official work. So he had to stay back in Mumbai."

"So who will assist you?"

"I have my assistant manager. If I need some extra help I shall ask you."

"Okay!"

'I will demand extra pay for this 'extra' work, Mr.Rishi!'

4:30 PM

T1 AIRPORT, PARLE

Rishi, Aliya and Bhavna had already checked-in in the airport. They were sitting in the waiting hall. Bhavna was thrilled to see Aliya

"Honestly, for me it was totally unexpected that you will be accompanying me in this campaign, Aliya!"

"Same here, Bhavna. Actually sir requested me to do this. If it was someone else other than you, then I wouldn't have agreed." Aliya proudly said

Rishi looked at Aliya as if he wanted to interrupt her and say that he was her boss, but he controlled his urge to retaliate. Rishi was bearing their girly gossips for almost half an hour and also he found their gossips to be totally absurd. How mean! Well Rishi is not the only one who finds it absurd but it is the problem of many of the males!

Their flight number appeared on a big screen in front of them. Three of them and their whole team got ready to board the flight.

When everyone was busy placing themselves in their respective seats, Aliya was looking lost as a rabbit in between them. She was just hoping here and there to find her seat. And as usual Rishi noticed her.

"Do you need something?"

"Actually I do not know how to find my seat."

"You do not have to sit here. You are with me, Bhavna and 2 more in business class."

"BUSINESS CLASS?"

Aliya screamed so loud that everyone including the air hostess glared at her for a few seconds because she disturbed them.

"Why are you shocked?"

"I am extremely sorry sir. Actually this is the first time I am travelling by plane so.... I .... ugh....it's just a bit of excitement."

"First time?"

Rishi was wondering that if THIS was her reaction to travel in business class, then how will she adjust to his high standard. She was already like a grumpy kid for him and now seeing her excitement he is tensed how will he handle her in Kashmir.

"Do not worry sir. I will behave myself now onwards."

"That will be better. Now go catch up with Bhavna. She is already upstairs."

"Sure sir."

Aliya was busy staring around in the plane. Rishi interrupted her dreamy experience

"This business class doesn't has that much facilities because we are travelling in domestic airplane. International airlines have much better facilities. I hope Ms.Bhavna, Ms.Aliya and others are having no problem. "

"I'm satisfied." Bhavna replied with null expressions

"We have to sit only for 3 hours in this plane. How much better facilities should I expect? Even if I was travelling through economy class then also I would have enjoyed my journey." Aliya said

Just then one senior employee taunted her

"This answer was expected from you."
