Rohan sat in his office, staring blankly at his phone. His boss’s words echoed in his head.
“We lost the client. They signed with our competitor this morning.”
He scrolled through his inbox and saw the email confirmation.
Client X had chosen another firm—just 12 hours after Rohan's scheduled meeting with them.
His task was simple - fly to Spain, pitch their services, and secure the $500,000 deal.

Instead, he stood stranded at Bengaluru Airport, watching helplessly as his flight departed without him.
The meeting was scheduled at the last minute.
Rohan frantically searched for flights, but most were either fully booked or prohibitively expensive.
He juggled multiple browser tabs, switching between airline websites, hotel bookings, and ride-sharing apps.
When he finally found a reasonably priced flight, it vanished before he could complete the booking.
After an hour of frustration, he managed to secure a flight.
But his troubles weren't over.
He still needed to book a hotel near the client's office.
Airport transportation remained unsolved—he decided to handle that later.
The last-minute bookings cost him double the normal rates.
