Arshita Glaring, eyeing and then asking her to "shut up!" Nothing really worked with this colleague of mine. She sat in front of me in my bed pouting to tell me things-that's what she said to what happened after they went away from office. I mean things? What things? The things how I made the i***t of myself? I was trying hard to pretend that I was reading the novel by Preeti Senoy who always drew my nose into her books. But the book was snatched away and I was staring my bare legs as I was in my shorts and that mole in my thigh. That man always encircled it and said it was amazing and sexy thing. I made sure to remember not to wear shorts from this day or that man wouldn't leave my stupid head. "Now tell. Preeti can wait. " She placed the book under the bed mat and sat upon it. " I am his PA and I don't know why he chose me. Then he asked me to bring him coffee and few reports. I got him coffee not the way he asked me to but he said he would like it that way from now. And he told me to shift my things from my cabin to his floor and I did. That's all. Then-" I gulped and was embarrassed to tell Piya how I was caught by him peeking . "Then? " She caught my attention and then I told her the important thing," Then I came back home. But... but when I was returning from his office he said 'you are looking beautiful' to me. " My ears went hot and I think I was blushing as I succeeded in imitating the way he complimented me. I forgot their was this scavenging girl in my room too and I started to play with my fingers thinking how he asked me to stop it. " Oh wow! You are blushing. It means it wasn't the usual compliment that you get, was it? " I found out the teasing face of hers raising the eyebrows. "He is my boss Piya and what I see is that he is an amusing person who is capable to make anyone happy, valued and important around him. That's him. There is nothing special for me so just stop trying to make anything from all this. And stop looking at me like that." Her eyes went small and she kneeled very close to me and kissed my cheek and hugged me. "I get it. He is our boss and rich! Irony is that all these rich man are so good looking and handsome, why?" I shrugged as she slipped inside the blanket with me after picking up the novel from under the mat and putting it in my lap. I smiled at her and opened the page I was reading before she came to pester me. "Arshi you know what. I want someone to just love me truthfully. I don't want gifts, expensive things from him but true love, care and hear those beautiful words. Will that person be Abeer? Why does he like you that way Arshi, why can't he see how much I love him? " I looked at her desperate and wet eyes which looked back at me to get some comforting words. I was about to say something to her when it occurred to me that we both were on the same boat and I didn't wanted this boat to sink but reach the shore. I palmed her cheek and started to not only comfort her but myself too, " Piya he don't know how important it is to be loved. He just like me and hope for me but he doesn't see I don't see him that way. He don't understand how difficult it is to get a person who loves us more than anything on to this world and once he will get this he will run to you to love you the way you want. " She slumped herself again beside me and started to mutter to herself," you know another reason too? " I was sure that her sarcastic part was going to say something true but in the irritated tone. I shook my head and raised my eyebrows as I was curious what she was to say. "I am feeling so much mature now as you are asking me." She started to shake her head slowly appraising herself. I rolled my eyes and stared at her. "Okay. Look I always wander around him and ask him 'Abeer you like to eat this' 'Abeer you are looking handsome today ' or' Abeer I will do your work if you are tired ' Abeer, Abeer Abeer.. " She took in deep breath." I mean f**k Abeer. OK back to fact. So you at the same time don't do any of this s**t. So practically I am easy for him and you are difficult. And man loves the difficult. So he loves you. Haha. I am proud of myself to c***k this code. " She closed her eyes and sat silently. I could feel her pain in the heart as I myself went through this. " And also you are more beautiful than me. You have that sexy curves, killer looks. Atleast that's what our boss saw and he started to like you. The sexy Arshita Agrawal. " Now I was out of my comfortable position and my hands were on my waist. She sensed the change in the air as her eyes snapped open and little later absorbing the situation begged for mercy. " Piya that not for the last part. F our boss! I am talking about you so listen. You are very, very beautiful woman I have ever seen who is capable of handling the situation and people around her. And me? Do you think my curves helped me when Ronit was going far from me, leaving from my door? No. I know if you were on my place you wouldn't have let him go himself but have given him good amount of dose and then pushed him yourself. That's you and me?" After lot of waiting I decided to decipher myself more as Piya was looking at me like a child. "I was coward to say anything to him and so each day I make words as to what I must have said to him. So does that help? No. You know the person you love likes your best friend and see yourself, you are with this friend of yours. You are most strong, mature and beautiful person I had ever seen in my life. I love you dear and that F Abeer is too going to love you. Do you get me? " As I finished with my loud speech I took the deep breath and hopped to water my mouth. Piya thought for a moment and said this after which I wanted to kill her," This was really great speech Arshi. I love you for thinking thus good for me. I doubt that I am going to love you as a lover you know made for each other kind of. " She was now leaning in the door and filling her things properly in her back." But Miss Arshita Agrawal. You can't hide the fact that our boss has a special feeling for this sexy curvy girl." Before I could make up to her she was out of my apartment poking out her tongue. "You will pay for this." I shouted back at her retreating figure. After all this I couldn't stop admiring her. I couldn't stop wondering how she could feel bad for a instant and then next come up with nasty jokes. She was cool but beneath this cool person there was this sad person too. I love her more than anyone else. I smiled thinking boost her words. It wasn't the deal if Mr. Arman Obroi had a thing for me but if Piya kept saying like this I would surely waste myself thinking about this unreachable charming man. I slowly walked to my kitchen but my eyes caught the heap of clothes that I needed to clean up. Sighing I picked that up and headed to the store room and prepared the washing machine to wash this dirty clothes. After doing it I thought of making soup for the dinner. Yes I filled myself usually like this. Soup is healthy and it keeps my stomach from making unhealthy noises. It was 11pm and I was in my bathroom washing my clothes. I was done with making and eating necessity at about 12 and now was sitting on my bed about to slip to sleep which I usually couldn't. Something hit me and I was sitting on my bed with laptop checking out my email. There was one new one from him. Armanoberoi29 @g*******m I read his email address again and again and I really what I wanted from that. My head asked 29, why? Instead of reading the mail I went to Google and found myself typing his name. Several links popped up. LinkedIn, f*******: and Wikipedia which were of my interest. For a moment I thought of checking out his f*******: account but grabbing the control, I clicked Wikipedia link and read it. His handsome face was up in front of me. Born: Arman Oberoi 29 December, 1986(30 years) New York. Residence :Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. Alma mater: Hayden high school Harvard University Occupation : Chairman of Oberoi group of companies. Net worth: US $ 96.2 million (August 2016) Spouse : Late Mrs. Priyanka Oberoi (Died in 29 December, 2011) This one caught my eyes and I couldn't read further. Why was that dead woman hurting me? I shut my laptop and blankly looking straight started my usual process of thinking. I was going through this when my phone rang flashing the unknown number. It was really very late at night but I few times got calls from office for important work. So I picked up said in the annoyed tone, "who is this?" "This is Arman Oberoi. Am I talking to Miss Arshita Agrawal? " The other side answered me in the most polite way as if trying to tell how impolite I was. " Yes Sir! What is it? " I didn't say sorry to him when I felt it was not appropriate to behave that way. But that word wasn't coming out and he could digest this much I thought. " Arshita you need to answer the mails much faster than you answered the call. It was important one and send to you three hours ago. Well as I am talking to you so I want you to be early tomorrow at about 7am as now I gather that you won't make it more early. Suddenly I had to meet Mr. Singhania for the new business venture between our companies at 10am. There are certain work you have to do. Be presentable for tomorrow Arshita! " What? Of course I would be presentable." Sir I could get much earlier than 7 and wasn't I presentable today? " I heard him chuckle," You were beautiful and 7 is fine. Good night Arshi. " My mouth fell open hearing him call me what my close friends did but I admit that I liked to hear him say so. Smiling I put my alarm at 5am and hid myself under my warm blanket. After this long time someone was making me feel beautiful and live and the feeling was really very amazing. I slept, I really slept the whole night that I ignored my alarm and woke at 7. I couldn't explain my horror at the moment. As my eyes took in the time, I shook in fear of making this polite man think me incapable of taking responsibilities. Within no time I tried to make myself presentable but my hairs where not giving me the way. They needed shampoo as they were wrinkled and curled. For a moment I thought of ironing them straight because my hand were not working with the straightener as I was rushing. Irritated I threw the thing and pulled my curls into the messy bun. Most important thing was to cover the forty minutes way to office in forty minute. It was morning still I was worried after all everyone know what is Mumbai traffic like. I huffing hopped out of the taxi as I looked into my watch which was helping me to freak out. It said 8:45. I ran Inside and taking the elevator I thought of getting my Maruti repaired the instant I get free from here. The elevator door died and opened and my foot couldn't get out. It was about to close but I shoved my purse to open it again. Taking the deep breath to calm down I finally found myself walking towards his office. I knocked at his door. I heard his strong "yes" from inside and I entered the office. He stood with his back to me. I wanted to see his face if he was angry but he was busy with the laptop and the file he had. I waited but nothing came out from him. "I am sorry sir!" He turned to face me, his eyes showed tiredness and the bag under his eyes. He was working late night but managed to wake up early and here I was busy dreaming of this man. "Do you have any idea how important two hours are? And I asked you to be presentable not beautiful. " I don't know if I was supposed to be happy to get the last part but his tone was that caught me off guard. He was really very angry. Nothing came to my head then these words which I don't know were correct to say," I am sorry and I know the importance of time sir. But please tell me what I have to do and I will not disappoint you this time. " He gave me the challenging look and I accepted that," Let's see then, Arshita." *************** A/N :Why really person can't be happy for a long time time.
