*Pari Pov* The next day I just tried to be normal and forget about him. And neglect to find any reasons for his trust in me. Nevertheless, the further I think of it the longer I am getting confused. So I left the topic and decided to busy myself preparing some new cuisine I searched online. I just chatted with my mom when I didn’t have anything else to do. In the evening, I chatted with my Dad. Now I am again on my bed lost in my thoughts. Why am I even thinking about him this much? He is going to be married in two days as Rani said. I shouldn’t think of him. It is not good for my sanity as well. With that thought I let sleep consume me. The next day I am actually bored without any work. I got so used to doing my work that now I want to just join in some company to take action again. In the afternoon, I was just sitting in our living room and changing the channels repeatedly. No proper movies are coming at all today, so I put a news channel. However, I didn’t look at it at all
*Simran Pov* I can’t believe Sheela stooped so low. I always have a doubt about her. Kind of bad vibes and I am sure that my brother would have felt that too. However, he just decided to not even think like that and trust our mom. I wish he didn’t do that, and I wish I should have stopped it at the beginning itself. Today looking after my brother, I just want to do something to take away this problem. When dad got betrayed like this by his friend and died, my brother changed his personality to the level that he became Mr.Stone. Now another betrayal and, which will end in losing his company. I fear that this will affect him on a whole new level. He is not even letting me enter his world at present and be there for him. So, I know the only person who can do it. I may be wrong, but this is my instinct. This time I want to go with it. I called her and she lifted, saying, “Hello! Who is this?” “Hello, Ms.Pari! I am Mrs.Simran. Can I talk to you?” I asked her. “Yeah sure, Maam.” Sh
*Pari Pov* For the next few days, we all were busy filing the complaints and set them into action. Today we all are doing our work, and the elevator doors opened. Nearly ten clients of ours entered the floor. Rani turned towards me hiding her smirk. She hates them all now because they thought of me as a spy and wanted to complain against me. Rani became so protective of me like a big sister. As I am a single child, I am enjoying the feeling of having a sister. Anyway, coming to the present solution, we all are watching the clients wanting to enter Mr.Stone’s cabin, but he is not allowing them. After ten minutes, Mr.Stone came outside his cabin and stood in front of them with a stern expression. Does he ever smile? “What do you want?” he asked them. “We all want you to take your complaints back, and we will not cancel our deals.” One client said as if he is doing charity. “Why would I make that mistake and deal with you all?” Mr.Stone asked arrogantly. And no one is surprised
*Pari Pov* After the press meet is finished, I returned to the company and reached my floor. Immediately everyone turned towards me with a bright smile. Our as usual mute claps started for me, and then I started walking to my desk after bowing to them. I am kind of tired because I am not used to those reporters at all. When I was young, I asked my dad not to make me attend those press meets and make me come in contact with any media. He understood my discomfort and tried his best to save me from those things. That’s why no one knows me today otherwise there would have been chaos. I still don’t understand why I suggested to myself that I would become his PR for one day. Now, I realize my mistake with this severe headache I am suffering. I just hope they give a positive talk about this company. I mean they better! “So Pari, your answers to their questions were superb and mainly your last comment. We couldn’t help ourselves and laugh just standing behind Mr.Stone.” Rani said laughi
*Pari Pov* Today is the day I have to give my presentation. I am completely nervous about that. Everyone is trying to reduce it, but it is not going down at all. In a few minutes, we have to reach the conference hall and wait for the client. I am still practicing a little to be well prepared. However, Mr.Stone called me in order to discuss something about the presentation. After entering I asked, “Yes, Mr.Stone?” “I just want to know are you prepared.” he replied. I nodded, then he continued by saying, “This is your first presentation right just don’t look at our client. You may feel nervous by doing that.” I again just nodded. Then Maam entered the cabin saying, “What are you still doing here? They are already sitting in the meeting room.” “Di, you should have told me before they arrived right.” Mr.Stone said. “I was busy in welcoming them. Now come on let’s go little brother.” Maam said. “I still can’t believe you both are siblings.” I said out of nowhere. “And why is tha
*Pari Pov* After my Dad gave me a big shock, my friends asked me questions like ‘Why didn’t I say anything about it?’ or ‘Why I am working here?’ and many more. So I told them everything about how my Dad doesn't let me work hard at all in our company. However, I want to have experience, so I applied for jobs at other companies, and I got here. They all came out of the shock in just a few days, because they know me completely, and they need not treat me any different now. By the deal, with my Dad, the company has got on the fast track to success. I can definitely feel the rival company having suffocation now. Each passing day I got a little close to Mr.Stone, of course, there are still our own bickering and little acts of revenge. However, he changed a little and tried mostly not to shout at me without my mistake. Please don’t forget the word ‘mostly’ because I still got those stupid shouts, but the different thing is not in a lot of major effects. Today is the sixth month anniv
*Pari Pov* The next day we all are already in our seats and were doing our work. Then Mr.Stone entered the elevator, and we all greeted him. In the end, he looked at me for a few more seconds frowning, and entered his cabin. I knocked at his door and went inside. I placed his coffee cup on his table and said, “Mr.Stone this is your schedule for today.” After I told him everything he asked, “Is there anything else?” “No, Mr.Stone. That’s all.” I replied and he immediately frowned. “I will go and prepare for the meeting.” I said and left his cabin. That frown will be there for a few more hours Mr.Stone, don’t worry at all. I shook my head and prepared for the meeting and informed him. Even through the whole meeting, he kept on glancing at me, but I just ignored him. It is already the lunch break. At present, we all are sitting at a lunch table along with Imran. They were just looking at me. “What?” I asked them. “Where is the plan of yours?” Imran asked. “I think her plan is
*Pari Pov* Next week just passed on normally without any incidents. Mr.Akash too didn’t shout at me at all. Surprise, isn’t it? He got used to me calling him by his name. However, I am the one that is feeling weird calling him by his name. I passed the message to everyone else that they can’t call him that like he said. Every day they teased me for that saying I am so special that I can only call him by his name. I am quite excited about the ball even though there is a lot of time. I will tell him on that day that I like him, if he even rejects it will be ok. I mean I can’t force someone to like me right. But yeah, it would hurt for sure. So Mr.Akash, please don’t hurt me. Today it is already past 9, but he still didn’t come into the office. I thought that he may reach lately today, so I continued doing my work. Nevertheless, after the lunch break, I need his signatures compulsory in a file immediately, and he is nowhere to be found. So I entered Maam’s cabin and asked, “Maam,
*Pari Pov* The next day my friends reached Kolkata and will be staying at my house. Even some of our dear relatives arrived. Today it’s just to receive the guests and make preparations for the rituals. Dad is looking after the staying arrangements of the guests. He always multi-tasks, but now he just wants everything to be undertaken by him. Mom took the duty of the kitchen department and welcome the guests. They are tiring themselves so much. So I started to help them, but they didn’t allow me to. Finally, my friends decided to help them and shared many duties among themselves. I am lucky to have such wonderful parents and friends. They are trying to conduct this marriage in a perfect way. But there is only one-week time, and I am not a fan of big weddings or anything. So I thought to get married in a simple way. And by this, everyone can enjoy the wedding stress-free. I called Akash immediately considering this idea. He lifted and said, “Already missing me?” “Where do you
*Pari Pov* At present, I am sitting on my bed fuming with all the strength I have. I just want to hit someone totally. As for Akash, he is sitting in front of me looking at me confused. Can I hit him for once? What actually happened before is that when this person in front of me said that he wants to get married as soon as possible, then my dad immediately said ‘Ok’ and called pundit. Can you believe it? He didn’t even ask me at all. After that call, he informed us that pundit will tell the good dates in the evening and left to go to the office. Akash too left to inform his family. I cooled down a little because I thought maybe they would decide a date which will be a few months from now. But no! I got the news that there is a good date in one week, and another one after six months. I immediately said that after six months was best for me to my dad. Nevertheless, he said that he already talked to Akash, and he agreed to a date which is in one week. And also that they already
*Pari Pov* Wow! This is the only word I got in my mind throughout the entire date yesterday. I didn’t expect this much at all. I mean I just wanted to go on a date with him, to know him better. And at every moment he got, he showed me his love. I felt so good about our date completely. When he proposed I just couldn’t say anything. Because what he said was just so beautiful and felt honest. I felt like I am on cloud nine. Nevertheless, the most beautiful moment for me is when he smiled after hearing my reply. I didn’t think that he would. The places he chose for the date are so romantic. Who would have thought that Mr.Stone can do romantic things as well? I am just grinning like an idiot now. But I didn’t let my parents know this and calmly went to my room and slept with a big grin on my face. The next day, when I woke up, I just received a message from Mr.Akash. It is a ‘Good morning’ Message. I was on the verge of reply, but he called me, and I immediately lifted. I actu
*Pari Pov* After Mr.Akash and his family left, I immediately started my inquiry with my dad. I mean he didn’t even say anything to me that my boss was the one going to come to see me. Because I don’t know this, I just named him as Mr.x and started scolding him for the past three days. Nonetheless, my dad didn’t reply to any one of them. I mean to not even one question even after pleading. I am actually happy that Mr.Akash wants to marry me, but I just have this tiny nagging in my head to have some clarity first. In these past nine months, we have had this relationship of countering each other or some little childish fights, and some weird problems because of some people. Of course, we have a few beautiful moments but what if we lead our life together just with these silly fights in the future too. They will be entertaining, but what if one of those senseless fights becomes a huge one. If this happens then, we both will get hurt, and I don’t want that. So I just want to know h
*Pari Pov* At present everyone is sitting in the living room except my mom and me. I still don’t know what they are doing here. So I asked, “Mom! Why are Mr.Akash and his family here?” “Pari, we told you right that you got a proposal, then why are you asking me again.” Mom replied. “You mean?” I asked her shocked already knowing the answer. “Yes! Not stop asking these silly questions and make some tea for them.” She said. I nodded and began to make it. Then I saw Mom started to place sweets on a plate and the mixture in another. “Does he like sweets? If he does I will put some more.” Mom asked me. “He hates them completely, mom. He even shouted at us when we brought some sweets for celebrating the company’s success.” I replied. “Does he shout a lot?” she asked. “More than you know. He shouted at me too many times.” I replied. She turned me suddenly and said, “If you think that he will shout at you even after marriage, don’t marry him ok.” I just smiled at her concern and
*Pari Pov* The next day I woke up late because I don’t have to go to work today. After getting ready I went towards the kitchen and talked for some time with my mom. “So Pari, are you ready to meet him?” Mom asked. “No!” I immediately replied. “Don’t feel tense at all ok. If you don’t like him, then there are many out there.” She said misunderstanding the reason behind my answer. I don’t want anyone. I just want one person whom I left and come here to meet some stupid. I just smiled and diverted the topic. In the afternoon, Rani called me and said, “Pari, do you know Mr.Stone and Maam didn’t come to the office today.” “Really? How is everyone handling the company then?” I asked her. “It is complete chaos, Pari. You tell me, did you meet Mr.X?” “No, I didn’t meet this Mr.X.” I replied. “You still don’t know his name?” she asked. “Thank you for reminding me. I will go and ask Dad now.” I said hanging up. I left my room, searching for my dad, and found him in the living roo
*Pari Pov* He said it! Of course a little late, but he confessed right! I so wanted to tell him that I love him too, but my dad’s morning call came into my mind. I promised dad that I will meet this certain person with an open mind and tell him my decision. So if I confess that I love Mr.Akash, then it is so wrong to meet another one. And I always fulfill my promises. I have to do it even though it hurts to be not able to tell the person you love that you love them. When Mr.Akash confessed that he loves me, I realized that I love him too, but I can’t say it to him until I meet this person. I don’t want to wait anymore, so after reaching home, I called my dad. When he lifted, he said, “Princess I was just about to call you.” “Ok, Dad. But about this marriage proposal, I…” He didn’t let me finish. And he said, “Princess you already promised that you will meet him right. You can’t back down now.” “But...” I again started to say and again, he cut me off saying, “There is nothin
*Pari Pov* Oh God! Why are you punishing me like this? This is the only thought I have at present because of the devil sitting in front of me. Yesterday when he said that he trusts me and kissing me was never a mistake to him, I was just shocked and actually want to pinch myself to believe it. Next, the way he stood so near me and kissed me on my cheek, felt so good. Of course not as good as our first one! My friends teased me at lunchtime like there will be no tomorrow. This time I couldn’t even stop them because I am still in shock. And in the evening, I actually returned his key. Because even though he said that he trusts me, it is not a good thing to do. Then he said if I don’t take it, he will not lock this cabin at all. So in the end, I had to take it. Today he entered the cabin saying ‘Good morning, Pari!’ before I even stood up to greet him. After drinking coffee, he started saying, “I really miss your coffee, Pari. I want to drink it again, and I am sure I will.” Ye
*Pari Pov* Today one week after canceling my resignation I reached the office a bit late along with everyone. We are doing this for the past two days. Because there is not much work to do for another few more weeks by us, so we all just want to enjoy this freedom. We all know that after a few weeks, we are going to have loads of work when many clients come here for deals so why not now enjoy. However, Maam and Mr.Stone are always on time. As for Mr.Stone, the plan to make me call him by his name is failing totally. He just asks me every day to call him ‘Mr.Akash’ which I am not going to do. So the same is just going on and on. I am actually getting bored because of it. But today, when I reached my floor along with my friends, I got a big surprise. My desk is not there. And the place is empty. Why only my desk is missing? “Breaking News! Pari’s desk is missing.” Sakshi said. “And if anyone finds it, please give it to her, and she will pay you hundred rupees.” Rashi said. They
