She closed her eyes for some time in prayer. Take offs always unnerved her and landings always brought a respite from setting foot on firm ground. Slowly she became conscious of someone staring at her profile and stole a sideways glance. The familiar face broke into a smile and said, So my dear, How are you doing? Suddenly memories flooded her mind and she gave a smile of relief as she recognized SR Bose, a known face.

She had known him since her modeling days and this meeting was probably after 10 years or so. No wonder, so many faces flitted across her mind and she saw the slight graying at the temples but she had to concede that time had been kind to him. He still looked dynamic and alive. One of the few people she could spar with and speak her mind.
She stretched her hand out and greeted him with a firm handshake once again, a smile lighting up her eyes. This flight was going to be good and there was a lot of catching up to do. So how is life, Sara asked? He gave a casual shrug and responded, Good! Adding that he would be in Mumbai for 2 days for a meeting and flying to Bangalore. Why don’t we have dinner tomorrow at my place? Sara looked at him questioningly. Thank you, I sure would like to. This worked both ways. He could get the latest information on the social circuit and in his profession; it always paid to have good contacts. Both were strong individuals and similar in nature.

He admired her style and grace. No wonder she used to get regularly invited on panel discussions and debates on multiple channels. How do you think the political change of scene is going to affect the business? He asked. The response was a casual shrug and she said; now everyone has got an opinion and people are falling all over the place to make themselves heard. Shouting, screaming and without proper back ground work, moreover public memory is also short lived. So everyone wants their 2 minutes of fame in the sun. He could not but agree to this remark.

Well! What you have been doing she asked. My business and office keep me busy. My Delhi office was under renovation and I am planning to have an extension branch in Bangalore and going there to finalize the location and close a deal. Hmm! Luckily she didn’t have to deal with an office and people. She had a reliable personal assistant and a manager to book her appointments and see to all travel arrangements. Her modeling days had inculcated a sense of style and power dressing and her contacts helped her stay visible in the social circuit.

The small talk casually veered towards terrorism, the refugee crisis, and the national calamity of floods. After a short while the flight landed and both moved together towards the exit towards their waiting cars. Just before moving on, he gave her his business card and she saw the logo of sting ray operations. Her eyes widened a bit and he heard an audible gasp before smiling and shaking hands once again and he was gone. She stood rooted to the spot for a few moments watching his retreating back and smiling inward moved towards her driver. He hadn’t changed at all and she was relieved. She got into her cab, closed her eyes and leaned against the headrest waiting for the next night in expectation.
