A Teaser From the Author of Unwilling Groom
Hi guys, this is a new plot I am working on, just wanted your views on it also suggestion in names. I was planning on "Is love blind?" Remember to comment.
This was boring, way too boring, well there was nothing new in that. This weekly meetings were always boring, but today it seemed that they had prepared it such a way that you would yawn more than thrice during the meeting. I was trying to stifle my yawn for a such long time and I knew it was a losing battle. Why do we have to attend this every week? This question was in mind of everyone but no one said it aloud. Well because they knew the answers they would get.
Number one : We need to set the target for the current week then
Number two: We have discuss the updates before starting the work and
Number three We don't have any other work of course the third reason is in their (the one conducting the meeting) heads and the true one.
Every Monday before the shift started they would lecture us, and whoever yawned would be given a look of annoyance.
And they expected us to be on our toes and awake at 06:45 AM in the morning, our shift started at 07:00. So as to not waste more of our productive time we had to come fifteen minutes early. And endure thirty minutes of boredom that too without yawning.
Well they expected too much from us. To avoid more yawns I peeked at my watch to find they still had fifteen minutes to torture us. I started looking around, everyone looked bored. Well I was not alone, I scanned the room and found Mahi, my best friend who grinned back at me.
Then there were several other people from our team standing. Then at the center there were culprits of our yawns, their aim was to bore us more every week. Because the meeting became more bring every week after week.
There was Michelle, our manager face like an angel but was sly more than devil himself. Her politics were quite known by everyone, then there was Allwyn. He too was a manager.
Oops sorry my mistake, I should have told you first about myself. Hi My name is Aashi. I will not tell you my age but I am in my EARLY twenties. I am working at Kale Consultants which is an Airline ticking audit company. Basically the tickets issued by agent are audited by the airlines, due to the volume of tickets they give it to us to do it. So we have various managers for various airlines.
That was about me, now back to Allwyn, he handled a different airline section but as our team was going to start that work he was here to guide us. There was Vaibhav my team leader, a nice guy. Then there was Snehal. Bitch.
I like dogs a lot so I hate to insult dogs by calling her bitch but the thing is I am searching for an alternate word suitable for her. She hates me, I am not lying since the day I joined she hates me. Not that I am beautiful, I look okay. Not that great but somehow she has marked me as her enemy, well I can't do anything about it. No the thing is I don't WANT to do anything about it. I don't like her too.
Then I heard the magic words, "Get back to work". FINALLY the meeting was over we all went to our places.
Soon Mahi came next to me, "How many"
"Five" I replied to her and, "so less, my score is ten today" Since we joined after these meetings we started scoring the yawns. So it became a kind of contest.
"Good, I was thinking something so you won" Laughing we both sat at our places. First after our training we used to sit together (me and Mahi) but that ice queen (Snehal) made us sit apart. I call her ice queen sometimes as resembles that ice queen from the movie Narnia. Just like her she is fair, bony and has dark blond hair. Only our ice queen has pimples. Of course she is as cold and mean as her. So the name suits her.
So I sit at my workstation, and log in to start my day. Our office was a vast rectangle box. After you entered from the left side there were several cabins which were all for managers and Vice Presidents, they came around 10 in the morning. Then after cabins there were sections for different non operations department.
It included HR, Training, Accounts and also IT. Then there were training room and then cabins of our CEOs. From the remaining place they had made washrooms and also a small pantry.
I know as per the description it sounds big and huge but believe me it is. In the center we have operations segregated by the various airlines we audit.
We worked in two shifts, morning and afternoon. And sat together as a team. Every team had an ad-hoc, Team Leader and a manager. Ad-hoc was nothing but a senior who acted as a team leader when team leader was not present. And guess who was my ad-hoc. You guessed it right the Ice Queen.
Her job was to provide the ticket batches which I had to audit and to solve any of my queries. As if I would ask her anything, She had given me all the sad tickets to audit today but I would not react to her. I just started my work.

Somewhere at 09:30 AM
Aashi looked around and stretched her arms, she had completed her target now she could do extra tickets but she would not. Their workstation was situated at the left hand side nearby to the alley. And she was sitting near the alley she looked at the watch and looked back and sighed.
Not any sigh this sigh came when a girl saw one big slice of HOT chocolate fudged brownie with nuts on top and on side also a cherry dipped in the chocolate. YUM. How a girl would sigh looking at that brownie she sighed everyday looking at HER brownie who was none other than their CEO.
One more sigh as he passed and she started longingly at his butt.
His name was Samuel and he was an eye candy, he was British but had lived in India since past six years. He was 5.8" fair and with green eyes. When he smiled his eyes crinkled and he looked too adorable. He smiled at everyone greeted everyone and ALL girls in office lusted after him including ME.
He kind of resembled George Clooney except his hair. Samuel kept his hair like Kurt Russell and it suited him a lot. He was funny, charming, smart,
"You finished you tickets" I was rudely interrupted by the ice queen. I just glanced at her and smiled, "Yes I did"
She knew if she gave me new tickets I would not do it and there was no other work for me that SHE could give. It had to come from my TL (team leader). She just seethed and left. I winked at Mahi and tried to see Samuel but he had gone inside. That bitch had to ruin my morning.
