5 : So Close.

Aashirya's POV:

I open the door knob of his cabin.

But guess what?

It was such a wrong move.

Laksh Malhotra, my boss was standing half nacked in from of me.

And believe me, I want to ,but my eyes were not ready to leave his chiseled chest.

And to be honest, I am very much proud to say that, once he used to be my crush.

My trance broke down when I heard the sound of someone clearing their throat , who was none other than my boss.

I blinked my eyes and gulped!

God , what I was doing?

Why can't my day go without making fun of  my self?

By god, from now and on , I will never see my face in the mirror as the first thing In the morning , after I wake up......

"S-sir you-your coffee..." I said in my flushed form.

"Keep it on the table." He said but this time his voice was quite different, from his usual self.

I nodded my head and quickly went to put the coffee on the table.

I turned round , but my nose got hit on a hard wall.

Wait!! From where this wall came?

There was no wall behind me few seconds ago.

I open my eyes and my eyes fell on a fair hairy surface .

My eyes widden , and my head snapped upwards and my eyes directly met with his pitch brown orbs.

"W-what are you doing?" I asked being very badly affected by our this proximity.

"If someone is not answering, then it it clearly means that , they are busy and people should also take the signal , and leave them alone. Isn't it miss. Sharma?" He said in a whisper and I just nodded my head in a daze, unable to understand what he is saying.

He backed up and started wearing a new white shirt and I without waisting anymore single second, I literally ran out from his cabin.

I slumped down on my chair and tried to calm down my buzzy state.

After I was completely calm down , I started thinking about today's events.

I can't understand, what has gotten in to him.

I mean, why he is behaving like this. Before he didn't even tried to talk to me ,and now he is talking with me , and that too while standing so close!!

I shook my head and started doing my work. I attend some calls , send some important mails, and also made his monday schedule, as tomorrow is sunday.

Soon it was already six in the evening and my work was also done for the day.

I took all the given files , to give him and leave as soon as possible, cause right now i'm tired as hell.

This time I knocked at his door and patiently waited for his reply.

"Come in." And here came his curt reply.

"Sir here are the given files, and the required emails are already sent ,to the respective person and the work of the day is also done. Anything else sir?" I said while trying to keep my tone as professional as I can.

"That be all for today, and yes tomorrow I have fixed meeting and I also have go to work with one close friend, for which you have to accompany me. Formal dress is not required , just be present here till 10 am."

He informed me still typing something in his laptop.

I internally groaned and give him unwanted 'yes sir' and left his cabin.

"Ahh.... I wanna kill him." I shouted frustratingly and drove towards my home.

I saw mom and dad smiling and were talking , when I went in the living room.

When they saw me, there eyes again became cold. Mom come towards me and stand up in front of me while folding her hands across her chest .

"Disha called us today.

She is in Paris and is preparing for her Paris fashion week Ramp walk." My mom informed me to which I just nodded my head .

What else I am supposed to do.... laugh?

"And yes, she will be coming back after 5 months . So i want you to apologize to her and say all those things which you have told us before, about your feelings and all..." mon said again to which I barely nodded my head and quickly ran to my room.

I don't know why, but my mood again got off. Do I just did one thing, which i always do.

I called my tutu. My best buddy.

Ved.

I called him tutu and he calls me Zuzu.

Funny na?

But we are always like this....

We never call each other by our real names.

"You forget me...." I whined like a child, to which he laughed.

With this we kept on talking.

Ved lives in London and is Managing his father's another branch of business there.

And he has promised me that he will come soon to meet me, as we seriously haven't meet for an year.

Me and tutu always share everything with each other, and as always, I told him everything which happened these days.

He was very angry , when I told him about being slapped by mum, in front of everyone, but anyhow I consoled him, as my parents love him a lot too.

He also shared his day with me, in which I also got to know that he is love with someone, and that girl is very close to him.

He didn't tell me her name, but anyways I teased him a lot about this, to which he kept on laughing.

We kept on talking till it was time for dinner. We finally cut the call bidding each other an unwanted goodbye. I sighed as I was feeling much better than before.

I went downstairs and saw that mum and dad were already sitting there . I also sat down on one of the chairs. Dad ask me about my work and I also informed him sincerely, while mum didn't comment anything.

We had our dinner with this small talks and soon retired to our respective rooms and I finally called it night.
