9. Progress!
It was almost getting dark, the man said that he will be sending his photo by now, he said he needed time, and she was ready to wait for a bit more! Somehow her guess was him! Is he... She shook her head she didn't want to make self assumptions and then disappoint herself!
As she paced around in the living room, a notification popped up, and she hurried to check on it!
And what? She guessed it right! It was him, standing beside an old woman who was probably whom she remembered as her teacher! She fell weak on the couch, she saw him, and he did too! Though none recognised each! She almost laughed at it!
Fear raised within, what if he didn't remember her anymore? She sighed, she should think rational now!
While she was bothered with her own thoughts, doubts and uncertainties, far from there, Ajay who was now laid on his bed, kept wondering about her! More than being happy for the contract getting signed, he rather was more curious about her! Did she accepted or not, she left him in a dilemma, and that prevented him to remove her from his head! According to his perspectives, she likely accepted some of it as someone like her can't just bluff! Just as she said, she won't say things without a think!!
After all, he just hoped for good! Suddenly he felt like his dark phase of life was coming to an end! With the raised excitement within, and only with the hope for good things ahead, he closed his eyes and soon drifted off to sleep! And he dreamt again!
But this time it was different!
"Get out of my way!" a yelled sound of a girl child was echoing but there was no vision, just darkness!
He shot his eyes open, what was that? He stared the upper roof in silence, as his body was still laid out freely on his bed! As he recalled the voice he heard, he felt it similar, somehow familiar, so close to him, but who's was that? He sat up slowly!
Again his thoughts shifted to the fact of him forgetting all his 8years memory! Did the owner of the voice he heard belongs to that forgotten memory? If yes, who was she? Cause it can't be his mother's as he was sure enough that it was a kid's, a girl's voice!
He ran his fingers through his hair, is his subconscious mind trying to remember all those things that he forgot?
Even though it was confusing, he was curious, he wanted to know how he was back then? The relation he... shared with his parents! He didn't want to remember his parent's face just by some mere pictures but through his memories, there exists the feeling behind those memories and he wanted to feel it, embrace it, cause he can't embrace his parent's anymore!
He sighed, and got up, to get ready! He signed a contract, and he need to work even harder now! He didn't have time for all this thoughts, as he was sure he can't remember anything no matter how hard he tries, he was experienced!
***********
It's been a few days that passed from their meeting! Dhvani had already recorded her new song, which took almost two weeks, well it was still too less, it should have taken more, but her company had the best of bestest people to help her! And so she could! Ajith helped alot too! And she was glad for it!
But despite her routine, she kept knowing more about Ajay by the informer, she paid him a huge amount, and said to collect some information about him, so what she got to know was that, the man was suffering a failure, starting a music company, instead of looking for success, he want to provide it to the others, the singers who had talent but ended up in slums! She smiled, just as he stated!! She recalled what he said, 'I have other plans!', what was his actual goal??
Whatever, but she could notice, he....changed! He isn't what she knew anymore! Was that because he lost his parents and later his uncle and aunt too??
She didn't know, loosing our beloved people forever affects one in no other way which can be more severe! She was experienced, she changed after her mother passed away, and she couldn't be more surprised if the same happened to him, but she wished it to not to! Changes may be good or bad, and sometimes both! She wished for him to come back, the one who was lost!!
After all he was whom she was close with! They shared dreams!
***********
Ajay was busy from past few days, his team was working hard, and they were slowly getting the name too! Which will help him and his company improve! 'Heartfelt Music Company', the one he had signed a contract with in collaboration! It was always successful, and had connections with many other companies, including some works collaborated with Universe! He was gald that he made up to Heartfelt, while not wholly him, he was just the medium, the actual one were his team, as of now, he could only afford one team, but as days passed, he was now getting the hope, and he was sure that one day he will gather more talents from different areas! World was full of talents, and he was willing to search them!
As his daily routine, he got up, freshing up, having breakfast, he got out, heading towards his car! He had denied Choi to drive him today, days were being busy, so he had said him to look after the team and for their needs! While when he reached the car, he saw an envelope sticked to the window, he frowned and took it!
An envelope with no name? Who kept it here??
He opened it out of curious, intending to get answers for his questions raised, but found a slip in it and nothing more! His frown deepened, as he read what was in it!
'Let's meet!!'
