Matters of the heart, soul and mind.

“Ayesha it's your and Allessandro's anniversary tomorrow, what have you planned ?" Lisa asked. Lisa is my PA but more of a little sister than my employee. "I don't know Lisa but I think i will pull strings so that he gets the hotel in the West to partner with him, isn't it good enough ? I mean he has everything he needs what will I buy for him?" I asked her, I'm very much confused as her. Allessandro and I have been married for 3 years and we are very much in love even today. Tomorrow is the 14th of February, Valentine's day which is also our anniversary. I'm so happy. "That is fair enough, so should I set up the meeting with Mr Nihotri, the CEO of The Nihotri Hotels ?" She asked while typing something on her iPad. "Ohh yes, Lisa I heard that the senior Mr Nihotri stepped down and let his son take over, how true is that ?" I asked her while checking my emails. " Ayesha where do you live ? Do you live under the rocks ? He stepped down a month ago and let me tell you his son, Aman Nihotri is a snack!!" She told me excited, squealing like a toddler with candy for days. I looked at her, surprised with her reactions, she quickly composed herself when she came eye to eye with my confused rather questioning look. But that wasn't what confused me, what confused me is the name, Aman Nihotri, it rang a bell. “Ohh Ayesha?" She called me with a sweet smile, overly sweet smile and that concerned me. "Yes?" Narrowing my eyes at her. "You just received an email to attend the gala dinner hosted by the Nihotri's in 2 weeks time" she said almost out of breath and squealing. "Great!" I said sarcastically and her face fell, I mean I'm a businesswoman, a successful one, with hotel chains, construction and logistics companies, restaurants and clubs. But I hate events, gatherings or whatever they are called. " Okay RSVP them, we will go. And please arrange that meeting with Mr Nihotri, ask him to meet me today if he can". Yeah yeah I know its short notice but I have no choice. Lisa nodded her head while typing on her iPad. After lunch time I heard a knock, "come in" I said. “ The meeting has been set for this afternoon at 15:00 but Mr Nihotri's PA said he isn't available this afternoon, so he is sending his COO Mrs Romell. The details are as follows: meeting at 15:00, you will meet at Barbaq restaurant which is 25 minutes from here, she is a tall blonde lady with a white suit" she said as she walked inside. I checked the time its already 14:10 so I head to Barbaq restaurant. I arrived there 30 minutes later because I was entering the location on the GPS. I was a bit early so I ordered cranberry juice as I was hungry, and it would be rude to order while she isn't here. Speaking of which she entered the restaurant and seems like she was looking for me, I waved my hand and she approached me smiling. " Hi, Mrs Jones ?" She asked, " Yes, please take a sit, will you like to order something, excuse me, but I'm hungry” I said with a small chuckle. She nodded with a smile. She is so beautiful, she has green eyes, thin lips and pointy nose (she did a nose job). After our meal I began to talk about the deal, and to my delight she agreed and sent me a contract via email. When I return to the office I found the love of my life, the apple of my eye waiting for me, my son. I was so excited I gave him a bone crushing hug like I haven't seen him in years and guess what I saw him this morning. To my delight he returned it too. "Mama where have you been?" He asked me with a stern face and i laughed, he laughed along. I so love my son. "I'm sorry Daddy I was out on a business meeting" I said jokingly and he laughed. I saw a little black box on the table wrapped with a golden ribbon, my eyes widened and he saw my expression. "Is that for mama ?" I asked heading to open it but quickly took it behind him. "Uhhmm mama, actually this is why I came, you remember Elena ? The girl from my class, its her birthday tomorrow so I thought of getting her a little something something" he said while scratching the back of his neck. I squealed like it was for me, he looked at me with confusion soon masked it with an amused smirk, how handsome he looks, just like his father.
