Chapter 2: Busy in Life

Khurana Mansion–Suburb of London

Savitri Devi was busy looking around the exotic gardening she has been doing with number of professional gardeners. Her grandson would provide her with best for her any new hobby she would garner.

Her grandson worked Day Night and was owner humongous Khurana Enterprise. He has established himself in the industry world and was ruling it. Already came in the list of top richest. But she wondered if he even had time to breath. But she was happy he was busy and enjoying his life, success and affluence that he was able to give to his small family – Dadima and his princess sis – Annie. This busy and occupied life, kept him very-very far away from his horrid and humiliating past. Okay she doesn’t want to ponder on those years when all three were separate and fighting their own battle. Maan’s being the toughest of all. How elegantly her grandson had taken all humiliation, crushed his ego and faced every allegation but made through it. He had remained focused and now have reached his destination. Even if it was tough she will always be indebted to that family, Maan will always be Indebted to that family. They funded Maan’s education, gave him family between which he grew and not like an orphan. he got lodging and fooding. Maan still consider them his family, though he has been ordered to keep completely out of touch and thus he have obeyed. But she was happy, Maan never forgets the debt of the family – Handa Family. She has never met them in person. Which level of humiliation Maan had faced there, he never told, but she knew it was not a simple life there. He just spoke of good things – Brij and Meera. There is one more child of Handa’s, Maan avoids talking about that one.

Savitri Devi – old lady was having her own fight, alone taking responsibility to keep alive the Khurana Enterprise, which had gone in coma. Then Annie – First Annie stayed with her as Handa’s did not want to take risk of keeping girl – Too many complications.

But later, it was tough with Annie around. She was beautiful and lived alone with Dadi. Boys in local area would start troubling the little girl on her walkway to and fro the school. She later had to put Annie in some low budget girls hostel. It was school, but most work were done by kids itself.

Then Maan had taken them all under his care and made her feel all the way queen and Annie his princess. This was their world, where all three tried to keep each other happy and help them forget the tough days.

She suddenly felt strong side hug “How is my Dadima’s new hobby nurturing?”

“Hobby?” she crossed her hands “Hobby is nurtured when you let me put some effort in it. You get army of professionals and all top class material. What am I supposed to do”?

“You supervise and get it done the way you wish” 

“Chaliye Choriye.. How was your trip? And few days you have no planned trip, I hope”

He closed his eyes “Actually” 

“Leave it, I know. Heading for another trip?”

He made baby face “Dadima – actually month and half long trip to New York for new project.”

“Annie is coming in a month – you know right?”

“I know, how I wish I was there to welcome her. But no worries dadima, her welcome arrangements will be THE BEST”

“That I know” Dadima shook her head as he took her leave.

Next he was busy making several calls and then important call to Adi – His most loyal, efficient and favorite employee.

“Adi” 

“Yes Sir. Welcome back to London Sir” 

“Adi don’t welcome as I am leaving London in couple of days for New York”

“Am I accompanying Sir?”

“No. Annie will land here behind me and I want you to take responsibility of her welcome”

“Sure Sir. Be assured.” 

“Also, have that Campus Recruit accepted the offer.”

“Which one sir” 

“That one of my business advisor”

“Yes Sir. She is good” 

“Hmmm.. actually Annie want that role. I had planned Finance for Annie but she wants to learn business with me.”

“So should we drop that offer” 

“No Adi. That won’t be ethical from Company.” Maan though for a while

“Do one thing – make joining date of both- that recruit and Annie, after my visit here. I will myself handle the situation.” 

“Ok Sir”

He then went into some other meeting of global financing etc. 

Later his rigorous Gym, light dinner and retired to his room to check on other stuff and later drifting to sleep. And this was his day, fully packed. He would keep himself busy, either in work, or with business parties or pampering Dadima and Annie or his Gym, other sports club etc. he also had big friends group. Everything to keep him busy and in present. 

So here you all go. This is Maan current. Your wonderful current will give you strength to bear his tough past. Also just heads up. Next few part - Please bear with Geet's childhood character.
