Marriage For One Year (COMPLETED)

9. Horrible Dream

Kriti's POV:

I think publishing news about Abhi Malhotra came out as one of my glorious success until now. Everyone in my office including my friends praise me and about my courage. They all said to me that I did a great job, and it was really a proud moment for me.

When I said to my parents that I published news about a familiar public figure and the news come out one of my best work till now, they become very happy and admire me.

I was overwhelmed in my happiness. Two days everything goes fine and after two days, Mr.Dixit, the manager of our company called me.

I went to his office room to meet him. He gives me some files and told me to write news about what was written on the file.

I checked the file and my mouth fall open. There was new news which was like covering news because of the news saying that the previous news about Abhi Malhotra I write was fake.

"What is this, sir? You're asking me to cover the real news which I published two days ago", I asked him in a furious tone.

"Yes. Because we researched about the news, and it comes out fake. So now we have to cover the news saying it fake", He replied to me.

"It's impossible. That news never can be faked. I collect all the information, and I am 100% sure that all the information is nothing but true", I said with full confidence.

"And why you researched on that news suddenly?", I questioned him back again.

"Kriti, admit it the news is fake. And I also heard people saying that they don't trust the news and now we have to change it", Mr. Dixit said in a strict tone, but I'm not the girl who can get afraid by anyone strictly talks.

"Sir, trust me that the news I write before is not at all fake rather it was absolutely true. I want evidence, I can show you", I said to him so that he can understand.

"Kriti, I trust you. But I think if we again publish something related to Abhi Malhotra then the news again caught the attention of everyone and your news going to be on top again", Mr. Dixit said which make me change my mind. I started thinking that he was right. My job is too caught attention of people with news as I'm no one to judge whether the news is true or fake. I always want my news on top.

"I think you're right. I have to focus on the news topic rather than be judgmental about the news. But I want to ask something?", I told him as one question crossed my mind.

"What's that?", Mr. Dixit asked being confused.

"Did Abhi Malhotra say you something about that?",I asked him.

"No...No... Not at all. Why should he tell me something?", he replied. Although I doubt his answer but lastly I believe him as that Mr. Arrogant Malhotra has no courage to deal with news which is true.

I leave Mr. Dixit office, and start writing the news he gives me.

Although at the beginning I was very much happy thinking that again I was going to write an eye-catchy news but while I was writing the news I was becoming curious and angry because the entire news was about admiring Abhi Malhotra and it was a high admiration.

At one point, I decided not to write the news seeing such fake admire writing about a person like Abhi Malhotra with whom I encounter personally, and I know what actually he is. But the next moment, I decided to write it as I have nothing to do with it at the end of the day.

I complete writing the news and honestly I wasn't happy at all as I was happy previous.

But anyway I stopped thinking about that and leave my office after work.

I went to my home and my parents called me so that they can start the Marriage topic again like every day.

"We call you to say that the boy family are coming to our house s week but the day is not fixed yet. I think you're ready to meet them", my mom said to me, and I give her a sadistic smile.

"What are you saying me that?", I asked my mom in a curious tone.

"Because it's your marriage, and you need to know", my dad said.

"I don't think so. I don't think you even care about my opinion. So do whatever you guys want to do", I said to them.

I was literally bored by my marriage topic, and I wasn't any mood to argue with my parents on this topic anymore. Rather, I decided I would break the marriage after saying something nonsense to the boy.

"If that so then I think it's good for you as you decided to give this matter upon us", my mom said. I don't know why she is saying that I give this matter upon them where they're doing everything from the beginning without caring for my willingness.

I headed to my room as I wasn't in my mood to argue with them anymore.

I went to sleep after completing my dinner and I fall asleep quickly.

"No... No....No... it can't happen.... what... is this.....Nooooooo", I woke up screamingly from my sleep.

I hurriedly check surrounding, and I find myself that I was sleeping. Reality hits me. I realized I was dreaming, and now I'm sweating badly although the AC is on.

I remember my dream, and I was again going to scream.

"No... it's a... it's a horrible and disgusting dream. Why I saw this type of nightmare", I said, reminding the dream which still makes my heart a bit faster. There is no clue about the dream as it makes no sense.

The dream was that I was marrying Abhi Malhotra, and he was putting vermilion on my forehead, and I screamed.

"Oh God! I'm becoming crazy. My parents always talk about marriage and in my office, it's Abhi Malhotra. And my mind messed up both the thing that's why I saw this scary and horrible dream", I said with a sigh.

I drink a glass of water and my eyes shift outside. I find it is already morning and decided to sleep some more time. But sleep was not coming back on my eyes rather there was coming to the scene I saw in my dream, and it was scaring me every time.

I give up on my sleeping so that I don't see that dream again. I went to my balcony and start spending time there until the sun rises properly.

After some time, I started getting ready for my office. Completing my breakfast, I left for the office.

After reaching the office, I checked the newspaper and found the stupid news which I have to write yesterday. My eyes landed on the picture of Abhi Malhotra and I don't get why God bless him with so much handsomeness. I throw the newspaper far from me because it was reminding my most horrible dream of my entire life.

I was working as usual and Surprisingly, the manager again called me. I went to meet him without being more astonished.

"Kriti, come I was waiting for you", Mr. Dixit said after seeing me entered inside his office.

"What happened now?", I asked in a curious tone taking a seat opposite him.

He said nothing rather give me a letter type something.

"What is it?", I asked him to be curious.

"Check by yourself", he replied.

I opened the letter, and it was one of the biggest shocking things till now. It was a termination letter that means he is firing me. I read the entire letter which makes me a thousand times more shocked.

In the letter, there's also mentioned that I have no chance to work in another company for two years, and the whole letter was saying bullshit about me.

"Are you kidding me?",I asked in a furious tone because the letter was enough to lose my control over my anger.

"I'm really sorry, Kriti. But I had no other way", Mr. Dixit said, and he was looking sorry.

"What do you mean by no other way? Why are you giving me a termination letter mentioning all these bullshit? What's my fault?", I asked him raising my voice.

"Yesterday you're right, Kriti. Mr. Abhi Malhotra forced me to cover the news, and he also threatens me saying that he is going to destroy our newspaper company. After my pleading, he changed his mind. And he said to me to cover the news and lastly, after covering the news he ordered me to fire the reporter and making sure the reporter doesn't get any job for two years", Mr. Dixit and I don't know when last I become so much shocked and surprised by everything.

"You agreed with whatever he asks you to do", I ask him in a shocked tone.

"I didn't have any other way. He freaking threatening me to destroy the whole company, and I was scared by him. Please try to understand my situation", Mr. Dixit said in a helpless tone.

"You're like my daughter Kriti and I know you from your childhood. Your father is also one of my close friends. So, I never can do this thing with you intentionally. I was forced to fire you and honestly, I have nothing to do with it. It was your mistake that you decided to write about Abhi Malhotra", Mr. Dixit again said, and he was absolutely right.

He has nothing to do with it. There is nothing too unbelievable what he said because I was also met that bastard, and I have very much idea about him.

"If Abhi Malhotra told me to give your job back, I will do that instantly otherwise you have to wait for two years", he said, but I said him nothing more as it will be useless.

I was thinking about Abhi Malhotra. He is also cheap and cunning. He makes cover the news by the same reporter and also makes sure to fire the reporter after the news is published. For him, I lost my job.

And I decided to deal with him who is responsible for all this and I'm not going to leave him easily.
