895 Words
Ye aik bohat bara office tha jahan mukhtalif apartment bane thay. Log hathon mein files liye idhar udhar aa ja rahe thay. Aise mein office ke samne aik safed car ruki aur aik shakhsiyat bahar nikli. Black pant coat mein woh hamesha ki tarah bohat alag lag rahi thi. Khule baal jo sirf gardan ko chhute thay. Aik haath mein file pakre woh office ke sheeshe ke darwaze se andar daakhil hui.
Baray se office mein teen apartments bane thay. Woh aik apartment ki taraf badhi to daakhil hotay hi maiz aur kursiyon par baithe mukhtalif log kharay ho ho kar usay salaam karne lage. Woh sar ko kham karti apne makhsoos andaaz mein aage badhi.
Aik larki apni jagah se uthi: "Boss yahan sign kar dein..." Usne aik file uske samne lehrayi. Aisha ne mud kar usay dekha aur haath ke isharay se office ki taraf ishara kiya.
Woh gray baalon wali larki Aisha ke peeche chalte hue chhote se cabin mein daakhil hui.
"Haan to ab batao ke is file mein kya hai?" Aisha ne mohtaat hokar kursi sambhali aur apni ungliyan baaham phansate hue samne khadi larki ko dekha.
"Is mein aik company ke sath contract sign karne ki baat likhi hai. Agar hum un se cooperate karenge to woh apne bhi employees yahan bhejenge aur hamara pachaas percent kaam bhi khud hi karenge." Iqra ne angrezi mein sab kuch dohraya jo is mein likha tha.
"Aur kya naam hai is company ka?" Aisha ne sawaliya nazron se qadray mutma'in ho kar poocha.
"Amjad Designers Company..." Gray baalon wali larki (jis ka naam Iqra tha) ne jawab diya.
"Oh acha, to phir aik kaam karo, in ke sath meri aik meeting fix karwao... aaj shaam theek."
"Ji theek hai... main jaoon boss ya koi kaam hai?" Iqra ne file band kar di.
"Aa... haan aik kaam karo, Farooq ko keh kar zara coffee mere cabin mein bhijwao. Aur haan yeh mobile..." Usne paas paday siyah phone ki taraf ishara kiya, "Isay bhi theek karwao." Aisha ne apni aankhein malte hue kaha.
"Theek hai boss..." Iqra ne woh file uske paas rakhi aur bahar nikal gayi.
Aisha gehri soch mein doob gayi. Waise kaha jaye to kaam acha ja raha hai lekin agar partnership ho jaye to zyada behtar rahega...
Kuch der mein Farooq tray le aaya aur woh itminan se coffee ke ghoont bharne lagi. Abhi usay doosray apartment mein bhi jana tha...
Woh apni jagah se uthi aur bahar nikal gayi... Samne baayen haath mur kar aik doosra apartment tha. Woh aaram se chalti aur ataraf ka jaiza lete hue aage badhne lagi.
"Bas aaj shaam ki meeting achi rahe to woh kuch waqt khud ko de sakegi..." Woh dil hi dil mein khush ho rahi thi.

It was a big office building with many small departments inside.
People were walking here and there holding files in their hands.
In front of the office, a white car stopped.
A woman came out.
Wearing a black pant coat, she looked different and strong, just like always.
Her hair was open, just touching her neck.
She held a file in one hand and walked through the glass door of the office.
Inside the big office, there were three departments.
She walked towards one of them.
As soon as she entered, the people sitting at desks and chairs stood up and greeted her.
She nodded her head slightly and walked forward in her usual calm style.
One girl stood up from her place and said,
"Boss, please sign here..."
She showed her a file.
Eisha turned and looked at her, then pointed toward her cabin with her hand.
The girl with grey-colored hair followed Eisha into a small office cabin.
"So, tell me what is in this file?"
Eisha sat on her chair carefully and joined her fingers together while looking at the girl.
"This file is about signing a contract with a company.
If we agree to work with them, they will also send their employees here, and they will do 50% of our work too."
Iqra explained everything in English as it was written in the file.
"And what's the name of this company?"
Eisha asked, now looking a bit satisfied.
"Amjad Designers Company..."
replied the girl with grey hair — her name was Iqra.
"Oh, okay. Then do one thing — fix a meeting with them for this evening, exactly on time."
"Alright. Should I go now, boss, or is there anything else?"
Iqra closed the file.
"Ah... yes, do one more thing.
Tell Farooq to send coffee to my cabin.
And also, this mobile..."
She pointed at the black phone near her,
"Get it repaired too," Eisha said while rubbing her eyes.
"Okay, boss."
Iqra kept the file on the table and left the cabin.
Eisha went deep into her thoughts.
"Work is going well... but if this partnership happens, it will be even better."
After a few minutes, Farooq came with a tray.
Eisha slowly started sipping her coffee.
She still had to go to the second department...
She got up from her seat and went out.
On the left side, there was another department.
She walked slowly and looked around as she moved forward.
"If today's evening meeting goes well... maybe I can finally give some time to myself,"
she thought happily in her heart.
