"Woah! You get to do so many things in just a single dress?" Ankita asked in awe. "Yes ma'am. This feature is available for every clothes and shoes of this brand. If the product you received is damaged you can get it replaced in a day. Would like to try it on now?" He asked. "Uh, how much is it?" She asked. "Fifteen thousand is the average ma'am. The ultimate price will depend on the final product you take." The salesman said. Ankita looked at Tanmoy and he nodded. She then happily went towards the changing room.
Meanwhile, Tanmoy took out his phone and searched for information on this Jet. He had also heard about it since it was quite famous but he did not know the details. Since Ankita wanted to get a dress from this brand for the first time he decided to run a check on the quality and reviews of other customers and some basic info on it. What appeared on his phone screen was shocking. "Oh. There are practically no negative reviews on this. Is it for promoting their brand?" He muttered and scrolled some more.
"Hm?" His eyes landed on an article posted on how Jet was selling cheap quality clothes at sky-high prices. There were quite a few complaints about the stitches coming apart and the fabric quality is low. There were also some complaints about the company selling clothes from another brand in their name. Next these two videos were attached. One of a press meeting of the President of the company and another was of the court hearing. Tanmoy played the second video first. It showed how Jet was being framed for adulteration by their rival company. The next video contained the President showing the pieces of evidence to the media along with the truth behind the defamation. From then on the company's popularity reached new heights.
After completing reading the article he saw the date it was posted. It was about four years ago. Tanmoy was surprised at how a previously small company that had only started to rise managed to handle such a critical juncture. They were in the industry for a long time but they were not that known and getting targeted by other companies just when they were getting known was a big blow. Some companies used other smaller ones as stepping stones to rise to fame. And most of the time those small companies either withdrew from the industry or lost their popularity. But Jet being such a small company not only managed to get out of the sticky situation but also gained more popularity and expanded.
But the most development of the company was during the last one and a half years. Since that incident, Jet was in the top three of the country. But last year Jet made its name in the top hundred companies in the world and is now working internationally. The former President resigned two years after that incident. No one knows the name or the face of the current President. Many are speculating that the current President must be a sixty years old man or woman who manages the company from home. Else how can someone without many years of experience in the business world take the company to the global level within a year and a half?
Tanmoy finished reading the article and wondered "Who's this new CEO of Jet?" Just then he got a call from his firm. "Tanmoy, you need to come to the office. It is important." The owner said from the other side. "But I'm on leave," Tanmoy said. "It is urgent." The firm owner said. "Then you'll have to wait for an hour. I'm out with my sister. And I'm not anywhere near the firm. I would have to drop her home and come." There was silence on the other end for some time. Then the reply came "Okay." Tanmoy put his phone back and looked up at Ankita who was coming back with a smile on her face.
"Dada, I don't need alterations. This size is perfect." Ankita said. "Alright. We'll get this one." He took her to the counter to pay the advance. "Anu, I'll have to go to the firm now. The owner called me earlier." He said remorsefully. He planned to spend the day with his sister but luck was not on his side. Ankita's face drooped. "Didn't you say we'd be having our day out today? Didi won't be able to come. Now even you're going to work on a holiday. Go wherever you want. I wanna go home." Saying that Ankita marched off towards the parking spot.
"Anu listen. Mr Bakshi said it was urgent. You think I want to spoil the already half-spoilt day?" Tanmoy chased after Ankita. Ankita had already reached the car and was standing there leaning against the locked door. She had her eyes lowered and hands crossed. "Anu..." Tanmoy opened his mouth to say something but Ankita stopped him. "Yeah, I know. It's not in your hands. Let's go home. You also need to go to the firm." Her voice was heavy. Tanmoy did not continue what he was about to say. He was also feeling bad. In his heart, he cursed whatever the urgency was that made his sister unhappy.
