Part 8-A
"How the hell this happen?!" Parth thundered, with stormy eyes and exasperation.
His design team sat silent, not knowing how to react.
"Doesn't anyone have anything to say?" he questioned them.
He got no answer except for shifting glances around the room.
Fresco's design department had been hit by a terrible crisis. The kind it had never experienced, or even imagined. Their superb design for a chocolate brand had been leaked to their most bitter rival agency, which had obviously copied it and presented it before they could.
Now they had just 4 days to make a new design.
"Someone from this department must have done this! Who else could do it?" he said, his voice boiling with anger like hot lava.
"But why would we?" a girl asked him, gasping.
"For personal interests, perhaps," he said in a low voice which sent chills down everyone's spine.
He gave her a deadly glare, and warned his team of consequences if the fresh design wasn't ready on time.
He slammed the door of the conference room and left.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vidushi sensed that something was amiss as soon as she heard the slamming of the door.
It was almost time to go home. She checked her watch and was shocked to find that Parth had been in the conference room for 6 hours.
She sneaked to his cabin and opened the door just enough to get a good field of vision. Papers were strewn all around and Parth was playing with a paperweight, worried, angry and anxious. His workload had increased dramatically.
Vidushi sighed seeing him being engulfed in the storm she had conjured up.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After 5 days
It was time to present the fresh design made by Parth and his team to the agency heads.
They had managed to finish it, albeit with a lot of sleepless nights. Everyone settled in the conference room. Parth greeted everyone and presented the design.
When it got over, he asked, "So, what do you all think about it?" He was smiling but on the inside, he was completely messed up and nervous. The agency heads had a brief discussion and turned to Parth.
"Your design lacks originality, Mr. Kashyap. It is not up to the mark," said one of them.
"Originality? My idea was stolen, I had 4 days to make this new design and you expect ORIGINALITY?" Parth said at a high volume.
"Calm down. Raising your voice will not help. Besides, it is not our problem if your design got leaked. It was your responsibility to protect it. Now, we must leave," the head answered.
"Thank you for your precious time, gentlemen," Parth said as they went out of the room.
Everyone left one by one. The feeling of dismal failure was sinking in and it took Parth some time to even move. He left last, after everyone had gone.
Instead of going home, he went to a quiet place to lick his wounds.
A graveyard.
