Part 2

Having loads of work pressure in office, I wondered why I was not able to concentrate on my work, why it was like I was waiting for the time to finally reach 5'o clock in the evening.
I was eagerly waiting to meet this gal, Vanika, and bloody time, it was not moving, just 10 am now.
Why it always happens to you, that, "the things which you wait more than others for, come to you late." but yep, they do come for sure.
the same I was expecting this time and so I wanted the time to go as quick as possible but somehow it was moving like hell, I don't know why, just by looking at the monitor I was feeling like, I was in some other world, like I was gazing at it rather than looking the code in it.
Yep!!, the code, I am a software professional so whole world of mine is about the code.

The boss came to me and asked me to prepare a presentation of the task I had done last week. The presentation was required to present to Project Manager (PM).
It is always weird to do something you don't like to, and specially when u are lost somewhere and even if this time, I knew the importance of the presentation, but still, sorry, I was lost.

It was lunch time and I was eating along with my friends. They were talking about the interface designing, some changes in the code base, but nothing mattered to me, first I am just a developer, and these are design things, they just go above my head but more than anything else I was thinking about Vanika.

She is beautiful, naa!, gorgeous, her way of expressing things was awesome, n her neglecting me and her quietness while I carried her on ma bike to her entrance hall simply said that she was a cultured girl, belonged to a good family. Oh my God, why I am thinking so much about her.

"Hey mannu!, what happened to you, where are you dear.", asked my friend. "Where are you lost, Is everything fine?".

"Yep, I m fine dude, just the presentation and me, I never made one, so just was thinking about that.", somehow I managed to handle the situation.
If they come to know about the actual thing they will start asking about the incident and all, and for which I am not yet ready to tell anything as I am still lost, and don't know what gonna happen in the evening.

I checked my mobile for the time, it was 2'o clock, my presentation was done, made a cross check and it was fine, sent it to the boss.

I was happy that the task was complete, and now I was free to go in the evening, O god!, let the time go fast, but can it, Naaa :(

I checked my outlook, and found a mail from the boss, he scheduled a meeting with the PM to discuss the plans and the task we initiated last week and..... shit man!, I was supposed to be in the meeting and it was planned from 4 to 5.

My first and the foremost thought was, yep!, how could I manage to reach on time. O god!, what the hell it was. And I couldn't ignore this, it was relevant to my implementations. O god!!!.

I didn't have her number, a thought came into my mind. What I could do now. Again lost in thoughts, now a bit tensed.
I made proper plans to finish it by 4.45 so that I could have at least 15 mins to reach there.

The meeting started at 4, it was a conference call, PM was there in Europe and we here in India. I gave my full concentration at the presentation and discussion to make it done by 4.45
and when I checked my watch it was already 4.40 and this bloody PM....., why I was getting angry with him. :(

It ended at few mins to 5, I told my boss that I had to go and left.

This time I was to reach the coffee house as soon as possible, and again my bike was with the full throttle as it was in the morning, but because of Friday traffic I made it there only at 5.20, I left my bike in the parking lot. I was so eager to reach the coffee house that my heart beats were fast, but somehow I managed to reach the coffee shop.
As I entered my eyes were looking for her, but she was no where to see, I came out, searched for her in the market itself, roamed around, but she wasn't there, I again went back to the coffee shop, and she really she was not there.
What happened to her, did she come at all, or she didn't.
If she came then why didn't she wait, and if she didn't, then why she planned to meet me by 5.

I changed my words which I said to myself in the morning, "the things which you wait more than others for, you can never be sure if they happen or not."

I sat there, and stayed for almost next half an hour, ordered a coffee, drank it, and then I thought, Will she meet me again, don't know, destiny knows, but destiny!!, who knows her.
