Tarini's Pov
Today is the busiest day of the week I have two projects to handle simultaneously, along with some pending emails to address regarding an ongoing project and a site visit to manage.I can't wait for the weekend so I could take some rest from my chaotic life
Right now I'm in my cabin going through some designs I made for our clients for their new house. They want a modern house with big backyard for their kids and a huge terrace for them to have fun and rest
I was doing some adjustments for the design when my door was knocked as soon as I permitted the person to come in, Tina entered and informed me
"Mrs.Dixit is calling you to discuss the Kapoor's project"
"I'll be there in a minute" I told her while grabbing my files and headed towards Mrs.Dixits cabin,she's my boss and Tina is her assistant
I was wearing a white turtleneck with white beige pencil skirt with the same color of blazer and a pair of white leather boots. I like dressing up,its my therapy
I knocked on Mrs.Dixits cabin and entered, she was busy on a phone call, she motioned me to sit down, Mrs. Antara Dixit is a lady in her late 30s with gray eyes,brown hair, chubby face with brown skin she's really pretty for her age
She started A.D architects during her initial days of her career. She's one of the best architects in India, with about 200 projects under her, but at the same time she's a really strict boss who wants no mistakes, there is so much one can learn from her, she really inspires me
As soon her as call ended she asked me "How is the Kapoor's project coming along"
"It's going good we just need more ideas about how they want the resort to come along since they have given limited information" I informed while showing her the few designs our team made in past 3 weeks
Kapoors are our old clients and it's a headache to work with them. They own resorts all over India, they want everything perfect but won't give proper instructions about how they want their resort to be and this time is no different they gave less information and when our team shows them design they keep rejecting them and the CEO is an A grade pig who can't keep his eyes to himself
"Well I'm removing your team from this project other team will handle it I am giving you all a new project, Rajputs are opening new hotel and they want us to design it and you know Rajput is a big name it will be profitable for us if we manage to work successfully with them" Mrs.Dixit said after she checked the designs for Kapoors
"Okay I will inform everyone about the changes. When are we going to have a meeting with them?" I asked, mentally noting down everything
"They will come here tomorrow at 10:00am make sure everything is prepared and everyone is on their best behavior Mr. Rajput doesn't like tardiness" She said sternly
"Yes mam I'll make sure everything is prepared in advance and I'll go and inform the team members about the changes" I said
"You may leave and before starting on your work give this file regarding the Kapoors to Mr. Desai and tell him about the changes" She said while handing me the file back
"Sure, I'll take my leave now" I said while I stood up
I went to the elevator and pressed floor number 5 where Mr. Desai's cabin is, as the elevator door opened I made my way to his cabin and knocked on it, as he allowed me to come in I went inside and gave him the file while I told him everything that was discussed in Mrs. Dixit's cabin.
I thought of grabbing some coffee from the nearby cafe as it has already been 3 hrs since lunch break. I crossed the road and opened the door of the cozy cafe which was right opposite our building, I ordered a java chip frappuccino and took a seat beside the window
The weather was cloudy today, it's quite surprising since mumbai's weather is mostly hot or rainy. I decided to work in the cafe and relish the 'once in a blue moon weather preferring it over being confined within my cabin."
I was checking some mails when my name was called out, I went and grabbed my frappuccino and continued my work and informed one of teammate about my whereabouts and told her to stop working on the Kapoors project and inform others as well
As I sipped my frappuccino, the creamy coffee flavor blended perfectly with the comforting ambiance of the cafe, creating a brief moment of respite amidst the day's chaos.
After my coffee got over I stayed a few minutes in cafe finishing up all the mails for the day and headed towards my office as it has already been an hour since I came here, as I reached my cabin I went towards the main room where all the teammates work together, since I'm the team manager I get to have my own cabin
"Attention please, so Mrs. Dixit removed us from Kapoors project and gave us a new project, it's about the new hotel Rajput's are opening and they want us to design it they're going to come here at 10:00am tomorrow and we have to be prepared for everything beforehand as the CEO doesn't like any tardiness"
As soon as I finished everyone started firing questions one after another
"What about the Kapoors then? "
"Thank God we don't have to handle his tantrums anymore"
"Rajput's CEO is so hot I'm going to faint"
"What about the designs we made till now? "
"Oh My God, I need to look more pretty tomorrow"
"Shut up he isn't coming here to see you"
"Guys tone it down" I said after a while knowing they won't stop talking
"As per your questions Mr.Desai's team will handle the Kapoors from tomorrow, and Mayra please don't faint in front of him, Siya you're going to come here tomorrow how you usually come, like the professional you are and yes Mayank is right he isn't coming to see you. That's it for now, any more questions?" I asked after clearing all their doubts
Our team consists of 5 people including me, Siya, Mayra, Pranay and Mayank
"What are the preparations we have to make for tomorrow?" Mayra asked after a while
"Get our old hotel designs which we haven't used and set the designs in the pendrive and make sure everything is perfect and prepare the conference room, the same drill which we do every time" I instructed them
After discussing some more I went towards my cabin and packed my bag to go home, I already had a lot on my plate today, thankfully the Kapoors were removed from the schedule so I didn't have to go check the site, I went towards the parking lot towards my 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Velar, I have been saving for a car since my college days while working part time, when I started working I hadn't decided which one I wanted but this Range Rover instantly caught my eye and I bought it, well I am still paying the installment but it's still mine
I kept my bag in the passenger seat and settled myself in the driver's seat. Connecting my phone, I played Taylor Swift's 'Lover' album, belting out the lyrics to 'Landon Boy' as I navigated through the streets of Mumbai."
I reached home after 1 hour due to the mumbai traffic,as soon as I reached my apartment I took a bath and changed into some cute pajamas, they're really soft, I was too tired to cook something fancy so I just made some noodles, when they were cooked I went towards the balcony with my laptop so I could watch something while eating
I decorated my balcony with some plants and a couch it gave me nice view of mumbai skyline, after eating and watching I went and washed the dishes and did my routine
The warm glow of the city lights danced through the sheer curtains, casting a serene ambiance across my bedroom, as I finally succumbed to the lull of sleep, ready to face whatever challenges tomorrow would bring.
