"Rachit's point of view,"
I walked into the conference room.My gaze fell on Riya, who appeared to be as beautiful as ever.As soon as she noticed me entering the conference hall. It clouded her face with awkwardness and sadness.I noticed she pretended to be looking at a PowerPoint presentation, but she was looking at me from the corner of her eyes.I wanted to inquire why she had ignored me.Didn't she like to kiss me on that day?I've just been in this office for three months, and the management has kept the news of my arrival secret, only sharing it with the office's senior management.People's eyes stopped on me as soon as I walked into the office on the first day of my job; because of my appealing appearance and personality, they quickly noticed me in the eyes of the people.The same thing happened here as soon as I arrived. Following my appointment with the plant head, I had to attend a meeting in the conference room.I drew my gaze in the conference room to the young woman who was presenting the presentation.For the first time, I saw a girl who was so confident in her ideas.In the faint light of the projector, I attempted to see her.5'5" tall, fair complexion. Because I caught her height and excellent body shape in my eyes, I couldn't notice the cosmetics on her face like the other girls.Her natural beauty drew my attention to her face. Her waist-length hair complemented her personality even more.She once gave a presentation and looked at me.She mumbled something in a low voice after noticing me, but I was sitting far away from her and couldn't hear her.I intended to speak with her after the meeting, but she rushed out of the conference room.The Plant Head introduced me to the rest of the staff.I inquired about the girl with the plant head out of curiosity."Sir, who was the lady who was giving the presentation?""Riya, our office's new project director, is a young and talented young lady." The plant's head informed me."Wao! That is a very impressive thing." I murmured that in a low tone.In my mind, the desire to know more about her and speak with her was growing.I'm not sure what drew me to her at first, but I was curious about her like I'd never been before.I looked all around the office for her, and when I eventually found her in the cafeteria, I couldn't stop myself from praising her."Weldon Miss."My voice drew her attention to me.It took aback her when she saw me in the cafeteria and apologized for not recognizing who I was.I extended my hand and introduced myself, and she confidently took my hand in hers and did the same.I'm not sure why electricity started racing through my body as soon as she touched me.I don't know why, but my need to know more about her made me restless.I tried to learn more about her from the rest of the office staff; although I did not ask anyone directly, I learned from her coworkers that she has a reserved nature, is strict and dedicated to her work, and that she can be aggressive and stubborn although she is a very kind-hearted girl who always pretends to be cold-hearted.She isn't a fan of workplace gossip, and no one has ever heard a rumor about her dating any of the guys in the office. And no one knows anything about her personal life because she rigorously keeps it private.I never miss an opportunity to speak with her, and I'm not sure why I feel she's becoming interested in me as well. I wanted to ask her if she had a boyfriend, but I couldn't bring myself to do so.Two days ago, there was heavy rain outside, and auto rickshaws were closed owing to the weather.While leaving the office, I noticed she was waiting for a vehicle sitting on the side of the road, so I pulled over to the side and offered her a ride, which she gratefully accepted.I'm not sure what happened to me that day when I lost control and kissed her by myself.Maybe it was the romantic weather, or maybe I couldn't help but kiss her because she was so close to me in such a lonely place.After kissing her pulpy lips, I felt a strong desire to have her.She was kissing me with the same passion with which I was kissing her.As soon as the oncoming car's headlights concentrated on us, we parted ways.But I couldn't stop myself from kissing her again, so I seized her lips with my lips and kissed her again.A call came through on her phone, and after hearing her scared voice, I assumed she was already in a relationship.At her request, I started the car's engine and dropped her according to her instructions.She exited the vehicle, thanked me, and proceeded to her building.The next day, I tried calling her.She blocked my phone number, and I was desperate to speak with her.She didn't respond to a lot of the texts I sent her.I was so disturbed by her neglect that I couldn't sleep for two days and couldn't focus on anything else.I'm just waiting for the office to open so I can meet her and ask why she's been so rude to me.However, before I met her and questioned her, one of my team members angered me by failing to complete the assignment on time.As a result, I vented all of Riya's rage on that helpless colleague. I can't believe any girl can ignore me, especially if she blacklists my phone number.Riya was the polar opposite of all those protests, regardless of my preconceptions about the girls. And even though I can't stop myself from getting close to her,Didn't Riya want me near her? Did she?Why did she put my phone number on the blacklist without telling me?Is it true that she will never speak to me again?Is it OK for me to question her directly about what the problem is now that everyone in the workplace is present?I don't know how I'm going to ask her in front of everyone. Should I dial her number and speak with her in my cabin?To find out why she's avoiding me, I do not know how or where to approach her.Because I was in such a bad mood this morning. Those who entered my workplace today drew the attention of everyone.It disrupted my thoughts when the meeting room light abruptly went on.Mr. Shinde then announced the official tour. Hearing this announcement, everyone's faces brightened up.I'd like to speak with her and inquire why she is avoiding me.When the meeting was over, I abruptly stopped her and told her I needed to speak to her about something urgent.It irritated her after listening to me, but she didn't have a choice, so she sat calmly in front of me.There were some staff members in the conference room, engaged in an important topic, so I looked around and saw that they were all there.In a state of emotional composure, I begged she depart by saying, "Nothing noteworthy. We may discuss it further at a later time."I could see her frowning face, but I couldn't ask her anything in front of the rest of the office staff.I just stood there watching her walk out of the conference room.I was desperate to talk with her, but I didn't know how I'd be able to do it.I dialled her extension without hesitation. "Hello," she said as she greeted me.I was so frantic that I had no choice but to question her directly."What exactly is the problem?" Are you upset with me? ""No, sir, there is no such thing," she whispered."How come my phone number is on the do-not-call list?" I inquired enragedly.It annoyed me when she addressed me as "Sir" instead of my given name.She remained silent about the subject."This is an official call; please do not reveal your personal troubles here," she said, and the receiver slammed the phone down angrily.Her weird actions made me quiver with fury.Why does she behave in this manner?She had no right to put my phone number on the no-show list.I like her, and I believe she likes me as well. So why is she acting this way?"Riya's point of view,"Rachit had called me, which made me ecstatic. Did he also send me a message? It is not possible for me to read messages that are blocked. In the end, I could not access the messages I had been eagerly awaiting.I wanted to speak with him, but it scared me that my growing friendship with him would harm my relationship with Harsh, so I did what I felt was right and avoided meeting with Rachit all day.Because of an emergency, I had to work late today. I exited the workplace with my bag after concluding my work. I waited for the elevator door to open after the biometric punch.Rachit was already inside the elevator when the door opened.What had you been up to at this point in the office?With puzzled eyes, I gazed at him.He had figured out what I was thinking. "I forgot my car key on my table," he said without prompting."Sir, here is the key to your car," Peon told him. He thanks Peon with a smile. He stood in the eleva
"Rachit's Point of View,"I lost track of time today while debating the marketing plan for a new project at work.The time was around 6:30 p.m. It drew my gaze to Riya's office as I prepared to leave the office.I just peeked through the glass of her cabin door to see if her cabin light was still on.She was using her laptop to do some work. When I arrived at her door, she seemed completely oblivious to my presence. If she wished, I could drop her off there. I figured she wouldn't get auto rickshaw because it was getting dark outside.However, after observing her altered behavior in the morning, I decided not to disturb her any further.Just as soon as I stepped into the parking lot to get the car key, I realized I had forgotten to bring it with me.Oh, my goodness, I forgot the key to my cabin in moving in. Because of my careless actions, I reprimanded myself and apologized to myself.I asked the pantry boy to carry the key outsid
"Riya's Point of View,"I'd just walked out of the office building. My office was about 30 minutes away from my home.As I lifted my hand to halt the auto-rickshaw, the horn of a car approaching from behind drew my attention; "Oh, Is this Harsh?""What exactly is he doing here?" I moved over to Harsh's car, drew back my raised hand to stop the auto-rickshaw, and stared at it, bewildered.I often tell Harsh that he should come outside my office and pick me up, but he never has enough time to stand outside and wait for me.Although seeing Harsh's smiling face makes my day's exhaustion go away, I am surprised to find him in front of me like this.I should be glad to see him, but I'm not sure why I don't like it when he comes today."What are you doing here?"As I stood outside the car, I inquired.He peered out the window of his car. As he opened the car door, he looked at me affectionately and said, "I pick you up.""If you had called and told me, I would
"Riya's point of view,"It was after 10:00 p.m. by the time we got home, and traffic in Gurgaon is so horrendous that it takes an hour to get there that neither of us remembered to discuss the important news.Harsh pushed through the main entrance and turned on the lights in the hall.I also took off my shoes before entering the house.As soon as the bedroom door opened, I ran to the bed, leaving my laptop bag and handbag on the side table, and lying down, telling him how fatigued I was today."Me too," Harsh said as he was going to change his clothes in the washroom, to which I answered, "Well, come back soon, I have a lot to talk about with you."Waiting for Harsh to return, I took turns on the bed from here to there. I got up and started headed to the washroom to change clothes as soon as he returned."Why are you running away from me so much today?" he questioned, grabbing my hand in his.It blew away the color of my face once more after h
"Riya's point of view,"The beep of my phone's alarm clock disturbed my sleep.I snoozed the alarm and went back to sleep.Harsh yanked himself out of his slumber and spoke to me."Riya, it's 7:10 a.m., wake up.""What?"In disbelief, I sprung to my feet and dashed to the restroom.Harsh knocked on the restroom door and called my name."What do you want?" I asked sternly."Could you please share the bathroom with me?""I'm also running late," he said, his puppy eyes flashing at me.I responded quickly."Why not?"We brushed our teeth together, and I resisted my urges by walking to the kitchen and leaving him alone in the bathroom.To make it drinkable, I heated the water. I fetched the bread from the fridge for sandwiches and sliced the vegetables to make vegetable sandwiches while I waited for the tea to be made and drank my glass of water... I clean up the leftover teapots that have been lying around all night.
"Riya's point of view,"As soon as the lift door opened, I rushed to the biometrics.However, when I arrived at work, I am thrilled at my minor victory; It had prevented me from being late even today.I said "good morning" to Ashish as soon as I walked into the office."Good morning," he said with a smile. Are you excited about your Shimla vacation? ""How's it going?""All good," I said as he asked the question."Will you join us on Sunday for some shopping?" I inquired, my voice hushed as I looked around. "Harsh was also considering meeting you."Ashish was the one who responded. "I'll join you guys, okay?""Have you signed this document?" Ashish said as he took the file and handed it to me.This strange question perplexed me.As Ashish waved towards Rachit as he entered the corridor, I pouted, saying nothing.I retaliated by snatching the file from Ashish's clutches."No, I'll double-check the file before signing it
"Riya's point of view,"I was about to leave when I noticed the pantry boy delivering a tray of coffee from the front.As he on the entrance of Rachit's cabin, the pantry boy said, "Madam, your black coffee.""The meeting has ended. I'm on my way to my cabin. You've arrived late."Bring it back, I complained."All right," the pantry boy murmured, a mournful expression on his face as he looked at the coffee mug.Rachit inquired, gazing at me. "Do you want to sit with me and have a cup of coffee?""It's OK, Sir," I said obstinately, "I have some essential work to do.""It would be helpful for me and my team to see the file with your testing results so we can figure out when the product will be out."Rachit spoke out, his tone was authoritative."Of course," I said as I sat back in my chair as if I didn't have a choice.Rachit smiled at the pantry boy and said, "You're free to go."Pantry Boy then went away after thanking him.
"Rachit's point of view,"As soon as I walked inside the office, my gaze was drawn to Ashish and Riya, who stood in front of me.When Ashish noticed me, he motioned to Riya, who took the file from Ashish's grip and said, "I'll check and sign it."When I saw both of them, I smiled and said "good morning."Together, they wished me a good day.Riya was not talking to anyone else in the office anymore, but whatever she was talking about with Ashish, they stopped chatting as soon as I arrived.I didn't appreciate her talking to Ashish like this at all, but I know my boundaries, so I stared at her carefully, saying nothing.A tiny smile appeared on my lips when I saw her.While walking with her to her cabin with the file, I inquired if she was available at 11:00 a.m., as I wanted to discuss something about the new project.While entering her cabin, she gave me her approval.I invited her to meet me in the conference hall at 11:00 a.m. on my way to my cabin.Be
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, why are you wasting so much time getting ready today? Poor Harsh, have been waiting for you for so long." Sheetal walked up to me and said,"Because my wedding is today, I had to get ready for it, including applying my makeup." I responded as I adjusted my earrings. "Riya, I think you look stunning today. May God keep the evil eye away from you." Sheetal slipped a small dot of kajal behind my ear and murmured, picking up the kajal from the dressing table. "Now that Harsh has already committed theft, no one even dares to steal Riya from him. Am I correct, Riya?" As he walked inside the room, Rahul said. "I promised Harsh that he would be the first to see me dressed as the bride, so why are you still standing here? Get out of here." I responded while covering my face with my hands. "Riya, you did not accept my proposal; at the very least, you should have given me this right." I listened to him and could not stop giggling. "You no longer playfully fli
"Harsh's point of view,""Harsh, what exactly are you doing here?" Seeing me here, Riya is the most surprised person in the room. "I'm here to dispel some myths around Rachit." I responded while seated in the conference room's empty chair. "What do you mean?" When I noticed Rachit's confused countenance, I felt a great sense of relief. But aside from Rachit, everyone on the board was staring at me in shock. And from the way Riya was gazing at me with her curious eyes, she was not even blinking. "I'm going to call security right away to get you out of here because you may not meddle in our company's affairs in this manner." He gave me an evil-eyed stare. Because of listening to him, I was not in the smallest bit furious at all—because if he knows the truth; it doomed all of his hopes and aspirations to fail. After hearing what he said, I remained silently observing the situation in front of me without responding. "Harsh, please explain to me why you are here." Riya was becoming mo
"Riya's point of view,""How dare Rachit talk crap about you? Where are you driving me? I'll just show him what I mean." I was finding it very challenging to take Harsh to the hospital. I would not have brought Harsh to this party if I had known that he would respond to Rachit's remarks in this manner. "Enough is enough; you are now silently accompanying me to the hospital, and I will not put up with any more of your nonsense." I glared sternly at Harsh. He had just left the hospital a few days prior, and in this circumstance, seeing the injuries on his hand, I was concerned about him. He was gushing blood from his hand. As a result, his body was already running low on blood, and he didn't need to waste any more of it by spitting it out in fury. After all, whatever is taking place, I did everything to save his life, so how will it work if he continues to endanger his life in this manner? "Riya, why are you crying now?"Although Harsh and Rachit's argument causes my ire, Harsh's
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, are you certain you're attending Rachit's party?" When Harsh saw me getting ready for the party, it startled him to see me at all. I said, applying eyeliner to my eyelids. "Yes, of course." "How are you going to handle that man in such a civilized manner? Have you forgotten what he did to you?"I know he has cause for anger, but I must still work to make sure that he does not mistrust me by following his instructions to carry out my plan."Harsh, I remember everything and have forgotten nothing, but it is improper to be personal while conducting business. I also had to go to his party because I am his business partner." I said, finishing up my makeup. "Well, if that's the case, I'll accompany you, so you won't have to go alone to that party. Beyond this, you won't challenge my choice because it is definitive." He announced the outcome while collecting his tuxedo from his wardrobe. "Do you not feel that you are dominating too much?" I asked, raising m
"Rachit's point of view,""Welcome, Riya. All I did was wait for you." As soon as she walks into the meeting room, she immediately creates positive energy in the room. The scent of fresh roses might ease any person's exhaustion emanating from their bodies. "What type of urgency has arisen for you, Rachit, that you wanted me to be here so quickly?" She fixed her piercing eyes on me. I wanted to tease her further when I saw how angry she was and had a crimson face. My choice was perfect, but I was unfortunate in that I could not understand her love. I'm still incredibly remorseful about the time I broke Riya's heart. Maybe today Riya and I would be together, and my child would also be here if I hadn't married Shilpi to protect the family business. But all I can do is regret it. Riya has lived her life with Harsh rather than me. I did all in my power to get her back in my life, but I can no longer see the love that I once saw in her eyes. The only girl in my life who turned down Rac
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, I miss you." He said, holding me in his arms as soon as I got in front of him. "I could not bear to be apart from you." My arms went around him with the same force as his. "Have you taken your medication yet?" I asked while keeping my head in his chest. "Yes." He responded in a quiet voice. After hearing his low voice, I knew he had lied to me. "I am aware of how negligent you are of your health."I remarked while slapping his shoulder. "Sorry, I forgot to take the medicine." When I saw how freely he was smiling, I realized that he still had many of the same habits. "If you made a mistake and are still laughing about it from on high, it's time for you to take some medicine." I said in a commanding voice. "Riya, you must learn to treat me with respect since I am your future husband and not an employee of your company." He answered by pouting like a child. I pulled his cheeks and whispered, "I wish you were one of my employees." "I'd rather not wor
"Riya's point of view,""Please pardon me. Riya, I erred when I stole your dream project from you." In front of me, Rachit is pleading with his hands folded. "Take this: I'm returning all of your company's shares to you." I was going to reclaim the file from his hands that held the shares of my company when I suddenly heard a strange voice in my head. What's the volume of the noise surrounding me? And the noise is only getting louder. What makes this sound so familiar to me, though? Oh shit, I just realized that this is the sound of my mobile phone's irritating alarm clock. I must have dreamt then.And do you believe Rachit will return to your dream project? In a straightforward manner, was it genuinely able to do so? It is only imaginable in dreams. I was being ridiculed by my subconscious for believing my dream to be true. Even though I know well that Rachit will not, under any circumstances, return the shares of my company to me, I still don't understand why there is still some
"Riya's point of view,""Harsh, what are you referring to?" After hearing him, I had an odd impression that he had some sort of plan going through his mind. But what? I must be aware. "Riya, please refrain from posing questions to me. I will tackle whatever needs to be done right away in my style." He had a certain level of determination in his voice. What's going on in his head, though? He has recently become more serious than ever. I've always seen him in a jovial mood, so I was afraid to see him with so many serious looks. "Kindly explain what you're talking about. If you're are not telling the truth about me, I believe they shall soon see me laying by your side on an empty hospital bed." "Oh, Riya, you are being such a jerk." He refuses to tell me what is going through his thoughts even after I have repeatedly asked him to do so, and even then he accuses me of being impatient. "Okay, Harsh, if you believe that, then I will tell you I will not ask questions now; you take care
"Riya's point of view,""Riya Why are you staying quiet? Please respond to my question." I'm not sure what I should say to Harsh, who is sitting in front of me. How can I inform him about the condition Rachit has imposed on me in exchange for his blood? I might even tell Harsh about the first condition, but how can I tell him about the second condition he's put in front of me? However, this moron detective informed Harsh that I had gone to a hotel room to meet Rachit while inebriated? Even when I walked out of that hotel room, I was in dire straits. Will Harsh believe me if I tell him the truth? Will he believe me if I tell him that nothing like this happened between us in the hotel's locked room that night? At any cost, I don't want to lose him again. However, I'm concerned that if I tell Harsh about the deal I signed with Rachit, he'll abandon me. "Riya, you're making me angry now. I've been pleading with you to tell me the truth and not keep anything from me, but you refuse to
