AFTER YOU

Searching the ' Mysore girl'

After arriving Hyderabad Adi took his first flight and landed at Los Angeles. After landing his friends went to their respective homes and he went to his office straight away. His father had already sent the driver to pick him up and had instructed him to get Adi.

After reaching the office he got to know why his dad called him urgently. There were some legal issues and for that only he wanted Adi to take over the business asap. After Adi becoming the new CEO no one can claim that position. Rishab gave some papers to Adi for signing after which he will officially be the CEO.

Who wanted to become CEO apart from Adi ? There was something Rishab hiding from Adi and Adi was not in a state to think about these so he signed the papers and went home.

Rishab threw a party in Adi's honor. Many big businessmen, industrialists and investors were invited. Everyone congratulated Adi on becoming the new CEO. Even with all glits and glamour, Adi felt something missing in his life. He cannot get over Ansh, he wanted to meet him again but this time he doesn't wanted to indulge into a fight. He wanted to start it all fresh but for that he has to find her. Adi's mom noticed that he is bit tensed and hence she went towards him and patting on his shoulder asked him," Everything okay na , is there something bothering you?"

Adi: Yeah mom everything is fine just a bit tired , kind of jetlagged.

Kaveri ( Adi's mom): Okay you go and get some rest, when your friends will arrive I will call you.

After that Adi went to his room, as he stepped inside the room he slipped and his mobile went out of his hands and flew in air and finally fell on the floor. ( His room was just mopped ) Adi stood up and picked his mobile from floor and with this he again lost into his thoughts. He could get flashes of his 'Mysore girl ' , he wished if he could get to see her again and this time try to be friends with her.

Adi : Oh God, look what have you done to me, I can't get over you Mysore girl. I wish we could talk more. I wish I could see you more often.

Interrupting his thoughts his mobile rang, it was his mom.

Adi: Yeah mom.

Kaveri: Adi your friends are here should I send them to you or you are coming down stairs.

Adi: Yeah please send them upstairs, I am not in a mood to attend the party anymore.

His friends Shravan and Nandu came to his room and asked Adi as why he is not attending the party. Adi can't hide his feelings from them he poured his heart out that how desperately he wants to meet that girl again.

Shravan: Do you like her?

Nandu : Or do you have started loving her?

Adi: I.. I don't know, this feeling is different I have met many girls in my life but she.... she touched my soul man I mean I don't know her or anything about her but I think I can understand her if get to know her.

Nandu: You have definitely fallen for her something like shiddad wala pyar but remember the way he talked with you I mean I don't think she wants to meet you ever again in her life.

Shravan: Oh Nandu , don't be so heartless he loves her man don't make him lose his confidence. ( turning to Adi) If she is meant to be with you, she will surely meet you again whether she wants it or not.

Nandu: I am just being practical but let's give it a try. Let's find her. Adi have you checked her ?

Adi: What rubbish are you talking about?

Nandu : Arey in social media!

Adi: Nope, but let's check. Okay her name was Ansh .... precisely Anshika.

They tried to find her in various social media platforms but couldn't get her.

Nandu: Any site left?

Shravan: WhatsApp..... But.... we don't have her number, Adi do you have her number?

Adi: You are taking about number, I don't even know her full name, her hometown, her location, nothing .

Shravan: Okay we cannot find her like this. Let's try to recollect everything you know about her.

Nandu: We saw her first at Mysore, she was wearing school uniform and they were returning the same night. So she must be of somewhere near Mysore.

Adi: She was speaking Telugu, so she must be a Telugu girl.

Shravan : At which station did she get off the train?

Adi: Ummm... I think it was Anantapur.

Shravan: Great then we can go there and search her in the schools and hostels.

Adi: But there will be many schools in Anantapur we cannot go every school and ask for her. It would be like we are searching for a criminal.

Nandu: Yes she is..... she stole your heart.

Adi: One more joke and I will kick you hard.

Shravan: Guys come-on we can go to Mysore, that place where you first saw her there were people who were explaining about the place, if we could get the name of the schools visiting there. So let's quickly make a visit to India.

Adi: Dad won't allow. If you both have forgotten let me tell you I am the CEO now I can't leave the Company now.

Nandu : Ask your dad to take care of things here, and tell him about the girl I am sure he will understand.

Adi: He won't, actually he can't, he don't know about all these feelings, all he knows is, how to make money.

Shravan: Don't be so negative, let's give it a try. Don't you want to have her by your side.

Adi: Of course I want but it's not easy , okay let's give it a try, I'll talk to him later tomorrow.

After all the discussion they all end up on the idea of Adi talking to his dad.

The very next morning without wasting any time Adi tried to talk to his father about this. He tried to convince Mr Sharma to allow him to go India one more time.

Adi: Dad I want to visit India one more time.

Rishab: But why son? You have just returned yesterday.

Adi: I have some work left there. I'll just complete that and return, just two days.

Rishab: Okay you can go but can tell me about the work?

Adi: No I can't. First let me do the work then after returning I'll tell you everything.

Rishab: If you don't trust me, how could I trust you, and of course there are people who want to meet the new CEO of ARK COMPANY. And I don't think there is anything more important than this.

Adi: There are certain things important in life more than money and pride.

Rishab: Oh really, and what's that?

Adi: Dad I met someone in the trip, and I think I love her and I want to meet her again.

Rishab: So what's the need to go to India, call her here we'll pay for the flight tickets.

Adi: Dad I don't have her number, actually I don't know where she lives, nothing , I have to find her.

Rishab: This is stupid, just give yourself time you will forget her in some days.

Adi: Dad I love her, it's not just an attraction, I am getting flashes of her, I really want to meet her once, if she doesn't welcome me in her life I will back out but I want to meet her once, just once, please dad.

Rishab: Okay just two days after that you will only think about the company. And if you don't get her, you will never think or search for her.

Adi: Done. Thanks Dad.

After convincing his father Adi immediately called Shravan and Nandu and they went India.

First they went to Mysore, the fort so as to get some information about Ansh. But they didn't get any clue as many people visit there and they don't know about everyone. Disappointed and unconvinced Adi decided to go to Anantapur and enquire about Ansh in the railway station. " Sir we have no idea about the name of the school, we have many passengers who are students and who wear school uniform. We are extremely sorry we cannot help.", said the person in the enquiry counter.

Adi: Then we have to check in every school one by one.

Shravan: There are around 150 schools in Anantapur and it's not possible at all.

Nandu: And even if we do so it's obvious they will not give the details of students to any stranger.

Adi: I'll tell them that I love her. Nandu: And then they will give you to police assuming you to be any random person stalking that innocent girl.

Adi: Do I look like a stalker. And come on yaar she's not that innocent .

Shravan: Okay she was wearing school uniform right?

Adi: Yes

Shravan: There must be any logo or something from which we can get the school's name.

Adi: Yeah but I don't remember the logo.

Nandu: But we can see it now , there are cameras installed in the platform, if we could see that day's footage.

Hence they tried to talk to the railway station people and got the footage, with the logo they found out the school's name and went there. Adi was so excited as he was so close to his 'Mysore girl'. From school they got to know about her hostel's address and then went there. Unfortunately there were winter holidays and every one including Ansh had gone her home. The hostel people don't had her address neither her parents contact number. Adi wanted to wait there till the holidays end and she returns but he didn't had time, he had promised his father that he will return in two days and also he can never return India to search her again. He felt so helpless as if coming so near to her he was returning without meeting her .

He wrote his name and number on a paper and handed it to the warden asking her to give it to Ansh once she returns. Adi went back to US. He was very sad, seeing him his mother was also sad but his father was relieved as he didn't wanted Adi to meet that girl.

What is Adi's father upto, why is he happy when everyone is so sad and why he was so eager to make Adi the CEO?......
