After the journey of good six hours, Chavi landed in Singapore city, Singapore. It was indeed as beautiful as they told her and as she saw on Google.
Singapore. Here I come.
She was in a co ord set of creme coloured sweat pants and sweatshirt. It was chiller here than India. Her hair were loosely tied in a ponytail and she was carrying two bags with her.
Tho she knows if she hadn't stopped her maa and badi maa, the number of her bags would have been at least five.
She wasn't even exaggerating.
"Welcome, Ms. Dutta. Please come with us." The assistant who came to pick her up, by the company, said to her respectfully.
"Excuse me." She pointed out before he looked her way.
"It's actually Mrs. Sharma." She corrected him, who gave her an apologetic smile.
"My bad. Mrs. Sharma. Please come this way." He said and she nodded smilingly.
It felt weird to hear Ms. Dutta after all these days. And she didn't even knew when she started loving the sound of Mrs. Sharma more than Ms. Dutta.
They made their way towards a lush looking car, which she knows is a Bentley.
She sat down and there started her journey for her new home here.

"You are telling me that I'll be living on the eleventh floor?" She asked her assistant hired hy the company, wife eyed.
He nodded with a look of confusion on his face.
"I can't. What if I fall down the balcony or..or..some low key plane or something crash on my window?" She asked getting panicked.
And the assignment, Vivian whose name is, smiled looking at her.
He found her adorable. Exactly like his daughter.
He was a man in his mid fifties. And one of the most trusted and liable person of the company. That's why he was given the responsibility to take care of the foreigner architect i.e. Chavi.
"It wouldn't happen mam. The bacony is packed with glasses which will shut open whenever you want. And the windows are made of the hardest glass. This building is constructed for high class people and is therefore, the most safest option." He answered her calmly.
"But...can't I just get a flat on some lower floor?" She asked, still scared.
"I'm sorry mam. There are only two flats on a floor and all the lower ones are occupied. The only ones remaining were this and one on fifteenth floor. Mr. Sharma told us about your fear of hights and so we booked this one." He replied her as politely as ever.
"Alright. Thank you." She replied, feeling defeated yet ecstatic. Ecstatic on the fact that Siddhant knows about her fear. It was about some two three months back when it slipped out of her mouth about her fear of hights. Even she herself didn't pay any attention to it.
But seems like Siddhant did. And just thinking about it, her heart fluttered.
"Let's get inside mam?" Vivian asked her and she came out of her trance and nodded..
What a way to embarrass myself. She scolded herself.
