The tables turned

A young executive was biting her nails.

I have to get this project, whatever it takes.

Neeti was beautiful, her waist was petite, but had flesh in all the right places. Men always flocked her like hungry dogs. And whats more, she was well aware of her affect on men, and she never hesitated to use it wherever needed, which was frequent. She was qualified, intelligent and tactical, but nonetheless a woman way too aware of her femininity. And today it was a big day. Her boss was going to allot a multimillion project to one of them, a project that could change the whole course of career, taking the one handling it to the apex. Alex, her rival on this, was a serious threat. Had it not been for him, she would have been the undebated choice. And somewhere she knew Alex is way more deserving than her. She respect him for his potential and work. But this was business and it was her career he was crossing.

This is my project, and I will see to it.

Alex was out on the field, and being weekend not many of the employees were in office. Her boss was in his cabin, probably finalizing the list. It was the right time to start. Khurana, her boss, was in his late 50s and a widower. He, never ever once made a pass at any female employee, or even gave a slightest hint that he needs a female companion, let alone giving any signs of desperation. But Neeti knew only one basic principle, if you serve a female flesh open, no man can resist it ever. So, here she was, dressed smartly, her hair open and a bit disheveled, giving her a look of being freshly out of bed after a long good session of sexual pleasure, her top buttons open, putting ample cleavage on display. She looked every inch of temptation and desire. She knocked softly on the door.

May I come in sir?
Yes, Neeti.
Sir, there are a few files I need you to sign.

As soon as she bent across the table to show him where to sign, Khurana froze. The cat got his tongue. He had never seen anyone like this. He looked up at Neeti, found her looking at him with a slight suggestive smile.

Err, sorry Neeti, I didn't mean to.....I mean that was just accidental and unintentional. I didn't mean to stare.
 Its okay sir, I don't mind.

  And Neeti smiled, a smile of the woman who knew what she was going to do, a woman who was going to offer herself to a man, without hesitation, all too willingly. She moved across the table, close to him. He shifted uncomfortably in his chair. It has been long since he had been with a woman. And she was making him nervous. Her presence reminded him of the tigress who was closing in her prey, ready to make the kill. Her soft, glistening skin was right in front of his face. And unable to control, he gave in, he dug his face in her cleavage. He was a man after all. Neeti  smiled crookedly, purring softly.  And the rest of the hour passed in a haze for khurana. Neeti took him to another world of pure lust and pleasure. And when she was done, he was drained and too tired to think. Neeti dressed up, while he caught his breath.

Neeti, that was something out of the world. He uttered under his breath. It has never been so good and pleasurable even with my wife, and any woman I slept with. What will it take to make you do it again.

The project. Neeti said, without blinking and wasting a single second.

Khurana smiled. Neeti smiled.

See you around boss.

In the conference room, Neeti sat shocked as Khurana allotted the project to Alex. By the time the conference dispersed, Neeti was beyond angry, she was furious.

How dare you, She stormed in to khurana's cabin and snorted, How dare you promise me the project and then give it to Alex. You used me. She held him by his collar. No body does that to me, and you will pay. I will see that you do. I will sue you for sexual assault.

Easy babydoll, easy. Khurana put her hands away from his collar and made her sit on the chair offering her a glass of water. You know what your problem is, you don't pay attention. For starting, I never promised anything, I never even said anything. Second, do you think I am a fool or are you so naive. You thought  I won't understand your game plan, that I will give away a multimillion project to someone who believes more on her sexuality than her capabilities. And finally, you did not knew or you just overlooked the fact that the office has CCTV cameras installed everywhere, even here. So, I have the proof that you lured me to get that project.

Khurana paused to see her reaction, she was in utter shock. She was so overconfident that she forgot how reckless it could get.

So, pretty face, now be a good girl and keep pleasing me if you don't want those videos to get public. As long as you obey, I will keep it for my own pleasure. And the moment you disappoint me, you will lose your job and your honour all at once. Remember. He threatened.

See you around babydoll. He mocked her as she walked out of his cabin beaten and exasperated.

Truth is inevitable
Truth is undeniable
truth is stranger than fiction


He lay at the hospital bed, exhausted and barely alive. His eyes drifts to the woman napping at the side of his bed. She hadn't move from his side in 3 days, not even for a minute, so he had been told by the nurse. He looked at her long, trying to remember when he had seen her last, so close to him.


She still looks the same, except for a few strands of grey hairs and a few symptoms of time taking a toll on her.

He felt tired and closed his eyes, his thoughts drifting back to her. They had been married for a decade before they got divorced. She had been a simple, sweet, homely young woman. Subdued and down to earth. All these qualities that he once fell in love with started to feel like shortcomings once he met Souramya.


Souramya, his thoughts drifted to the day he laid his eyes on her. She was a few years younger to him. Like a buzz of fresh air, her presence always filled the surrounding with an unknown energy. She was fiercely independent, fashionable and romantic and of course beautiful. And like every man in the office, he also fell hard for her charms. Somehow, for some reason that he never understood, she also got attracted to him. There proximity grew in to what he thought was love. But in time he realized he was wrong, only a bit too late.

He remember how gripped he was in Souramya's charm, so gripped that he never left a chance to compare his wife with her. All the qualities that he once loved in her, now made her look lowly to him.

True, grass is always greener on the other side, and like a perfect ass, I went on to graze, only to find it was an illusion.

He sighed, cursing the day he asked for the divorce, remembering the hurt, that had become a permanent expression lately. for a moment there he felt guilty. But he saved himself, by 'its for everyone's good' kind of explanation to himself. Soon after the divorce was finalized, he and Souramya got married. Initially, the guilt of divorce haunted him, but Souramya was like a whirlwind. She consumed him totally and completely. She was insatiable in many ways, and sometimes she made him realize he was too old for her. Her taste was expensive. She had a lavish style that she wouldn't compromise on, and she lived on both her and his salary like a parasite. It wasn't long before he realized choosing Souramya over his wife was a big mistake. He was miserable and he couldn't go back. She left him with no family or friends that he could talk to. He befriended alcohol in desperation. He would drink and come home late, while Souramya partied. And it wasn't long before he heard about her having an heated affair with a hot-shot bachelor of the town. That day they had a huge argument and at the end Souramya stormed out humiliating him on the grounds of his ability to physically satisfy her.

He was left with two options, either leave Souramya or stay back with her to be humiliated everyday, But no option took him to the path he wanted- back to his wife. He would secretly watch her taking care of home, its finances and his children alone. At times he would feel a very strong urge to walk up to her and cry and beg for her forgiveness, but neither he had the heart, nor strength. And he drank. he cried and drank. He cursed himself and he drank. And one day he found himself in the hospital, along with the cancer. And her, his wife, beside him. He was dumbfounded. Cat got his tongue. He looked at her with tears welling up in his eyes. She smiled sadly, said nothing, but ran a loving hand on his head, like only a mother could or a wife who really loved her husband. He wanted to apologize, but she kept a finger on his lips.

In coming days, he came to know that Souramya never once visited him, that his wife was struggling hard to keep him alive, that he had been the world's greatest fool and that now he is being a coward. When she came with his lunch, he pulled up all his strength and poured his heart out. And before long, she hugged him tight and the both cried. They cried for their love lost, the cried for the time gone, they both cried for giving up on each other.

Every minute she was by his side, the held hands, he talked as much as his energy would allow, they told each other how much they loved each other. And when he died, he had a look of peace on his face, like a sage who have found his salvation, and she cried once again. Because he left her alone once again, but this time she knew that he did love her, and she knew, this will be her strength for the long life that lies ahead, the long and lonely life.
