“Dad, are you sure about this business offer?”, questioned Raj, with his head full of uncertainty.
“Yes yes, I think we can go ahead with this proposal… Raj, sometimes we long for an opportunity to knock our doors. But, when it actually arrives, most of us don't greet it, fearing that we don't have the calibre to take advantage of the opportunity. I believe in YOU, more than you do and I am sure you can do this”, convinced Raj’s father.
Raj’s manager, Pandian was standing quietly, listening to the conversation.
The room went silent for few minutes. Raj was deep in his thoughts.
“Pandian, why would a company of such a grand portfolio, would choose to partner with us?”, questioned Raj.
“Sir, they don't simply do business with anybody in the industry. They are very particular about the quality and trustworthy of a set up. Even though we are small, we are renowned for our quality and uniqueness. That is why they were interested in working with us”
Raj doesn't seem to be convinced. He looked confused.
“Raj, there is nothing to be worried of… you are capable enough to do that”, assured his dad.
“But dad, we have a small workshop with handful artisans. I am wondering how we could manage such a big business proposal, with minimum resource!”, worried Raj.
“Do you think they wouldn't have thought about it? They agreed to support us by all means, as we start scaling our workshop. They looked genuine to me and I want to see my son soaring high above, overcoming all the odds and pains”, reassured his dad.
Priya understood that they are having a serious conversation and that Raj did not even notice when Priya stopped by. She also did not intend to disturb them and waited patiently, until everything is done with.
Lately, Priya saw Raj’s father and manager leave his room. Then she hurried to feed him his dinner and pills. As she entered the room, with overwhelming excitement, Raj was lost in his thoughts. She waited for a while, but he doesn't seem to realise what's happening around.
“Dinner time!!”, cheered Priya.
Raj looked up at her and gave her a sweet smile. She instantly got mesmerized, just like every other time.
“Sorry Priya. I didn't notice you”
“It's ok. I came here sometime back and you didn't notice then either. You three were in the middle of a serious discussion. So, I didn't wanted to bother you… Well, it's already late and you should have been done with your dinner by now… I will get you ready for dinner”, said Priya and started to prepare him for the meal.
He was smiling cheekily and she was inquisitive as if why.
“Why are you laughing like that?”
“I never thought you could talk so much!”
“What?!”
“Nothing.. just feeling very happy”
Priya blushed and Raj admired!!
