date with the diva

I have been on my toes all day long today got called for a job interveiw, I was bored enough to go but sure I wouldnt take it up.I surprised myself....I start work tommorrow.The girl I was supposed to meet over coffee was 20 minutes late and walked in looking like Jeetendras glamourous twin, all dressed up in white "for coffee" in Khan market????.Even her sunglasses were white framed not to forget her skin tight and very transparent halter dress, her bag,her mobile cover,even the orchid in her hair.Delhi is well overdressed to put it lightly but this really is over the top.
We got chatting and realized we have a lot in common including an ex boyfriend....hmmmm.Really didnt think he had such bad taste in women.What we didnt have in common was her tendency to drink like a fish-coffee was followed by four large vodkas and two neat whiskeys while she poured her heart to me, about how empty her life is and how diffcult it is to sleep with every man that crosses her path in the hope that one day she will find true love.Finally got back at dinner and cancelled all plans of meeting friends.
I was so excited that I found myself in bed at 10 pm,need to make a good impression and be on time for my first day at work.
Over the next few days in office I spend most of my time flipping through magazines I realize three very important things-1-Most of the time I am the only one in office.2-Noone comes in before 2pm and everyone leaves before 5pm.3-I still dont know what my job profile is.
Then suddenly the girls started showing up on time,the boss was flying down from Dubai to check up on the Delhi office.(there were two other girls besides me).
Malini was too busy given her late night activities and endless parties while Ravina hd a serious drinking problem.She started drinking at lunch and stopped at tea or so I think.
I opened the door to a lady in a leopard print cat suit carrying an oversized crystal bag.The boss had arrived.The next four hours were spent telling us her life story.Jaswinder Kaur was born in Amritsar,her father was a much older married man and her mother a young but very ambitious lady.Over the course of the next thirty five years Jaswinder turned into Jessy the 33 year old mistress of one of the most influential men in Dubai.She was everything I have read about in novels.Not only was Jessy very open about her past and very proud of her acheivements but she was Indian.Dont get me wrong,I am indian and very proud to be one.Over the years my parents have given me the best education and the very best opportunities.I consider myself cosmopolitan.At 24, I have dated men,gotten drunk,tried some cocaine-only once and just to see what the fuss was about but I still cringe at women using sex to get ahead in life.Jessy was everything I despised but I was curious and impressed.How a girl from Amritsar reached Dubai was understandable but how she managed to open an consultancy firm was beyond me.More unbelievable was the fact that she actually knew what she was talking about-A self educated woman and someone who had the strength to live her dreams without letting circumstances break her?
Maybe not.
