Chapter 4

Dhruti's POV

The sight made my jaw drop.

 The man is sinfully handsome. 

In a blue checked suit jacket with a white  t-shirt and black pants he looked like a magazine model. His height is 6 ft or 6'1". His sharp nose, messy hair,sharp jawline made him look gorgeous. His perfectly trimmed beard makes him look more sexy. He was no doubt muscular ...  his biceps and veins of forearms were making appearance and it was terribly hot.The way he was walking screams his strong personality and his appearance and attitude oozes power.

For me , he is the sexiest specimen of men I have seen till today.



The whole cafe was watching him but he was busy looking at something on his phone.  

I think he is used to these kinds of attention.

He came and sat in front of us and his side face was facing us.

Devika adjusted her seat so that she could ogle him.

Ye nahi badlegi!(she willnot change!)

"Yes he is really Handsome " Juhi said and Paridhi nodded.

He was sitting and typing something on his phone forgetting the world around him.

"But why is he alone? Don't tell me he is single . " Devika said.

"Why can't he be single? " I asked.

"Aare...look at him..how can a handsome man be single?" Devika asked or should I say almost shrieked. 

"Oh come on, it is not written as a rule that handsome men can't be single " I said.

"I guess Devika is right," Paridhi said and gestured to her left to see the scene in front of us.

Then I saw a girl approach him and they both settled down facing each other.

And we? Guess what...we started our investigation on him while having our coffee.

They both are talking ..mostly the girl is talking and he is listening attentively. 

Maybe he had felt our gaze as he looked towards us.

Devika immediately settled facing her back towards him and we acted as if we were reading the menu card.

As Devika was sitting in front of me, I was guarded by her . Still I hid my face with menu card so that he couldn't see me.

Within a few minutes he shifted his attention towards the girl and engaged in a conversation with her.

From his expression we can say that he was tensed.

Suddenly the girl started to sob and he tried to comfort her by rubbing the backside of her palm.

"See, I told you ,he isn't single. He has a pretty girlfriend." Devika said excitedly as if she had won an award.

" Why do you guys think she is his girlfriend?  Maybe she is his friend or sister or some relative . Just because they are sitting and talking doesn't mean they have to be a couple." Juhi said.

"Exactly...their body language and expression don't show any kind of romantic relation. If she had been his girlfriend, he would have shifted his seat to sit close to him  and hugged her. Or to avoid PDA they would have left so he can console her in private. " I said. 

Devika and Paridhi agreed with us.

Well, I am a psychologist...I can understand humans through their expressions...and in  80% cases my guessing comes out to be correct. 

What if this is under that rare 20% case? What if it's true that they are a couple? My inner voice poked me  .

Well, why do I care? 

"Whatever it is….the man is too hot to handle." I said fanning myself and we burst out laughing. 

Hearing our laughter everyone turns, including him and gives us a weird look making us stop laughing. 

After sometime they walked out and we started looking at them from the glass window. 

Like a gentleman he waited for her to leave.  

After her car drove away ...he went towards his car and drove away.

"Hayy...chala gaya Humhe chor kar (Hayy..he went away leaving us) " saying this Devika wiped her fake tears and again we burst out laughing,earning weird looks again.

We already knew that we are mad but we officially proved it today.

After an hour we did our goodbye and left .

I came back. After freshening up I helped my mom in cooking and had our dinner laughing and talking.

Then we all went to our respective rooms.

I came to my room and did some pending work. After an hour I decided to sleep and laid down.

I don't know when I slept but the last thing I remember I was thinking about the stranger. 

Dhruv's POV 

I reached the cafe at 7 pm. I walked inside checking emails on my phone.

I can feel people staring at me but I ignored it as always.

I sat near the window and replied to some emails.

"Dhruv "  

I looked up to see my secretary Mrs Namrata standing there. I gestured to her to sit and she sat.

"What happened? Why did you call me urgently?" I asked.

I felt a strong gaze on me and looked to my right to see 4 girls are looking at me. But as soon as I looked at them they shifted and pretended to be engaged in the menu card .One of them covered her face with the menu card.  

I concentrated on Namrata. 

"Thank you for coming . Actually I wanted to take leave for a week." She said in a broken voice.

"Why?" I asked, getting tensed.

"I..umm..I have to go to Dehradun . Papa had slipped from stairs and broken his right leg. Mumma called me in the noon and informed me .She is really tensed and it is not good for her health as she has blood pressure. '' saying this she started to sob...I comforted her by rubbing her hand .

She composed and said ," I and Karan(her husband) are leaving tonight . I could have informed you through the phone but I came here to give you this pendrive . I have prepared your schedule for this week and  some files which you told me to do." 

She is really an efficient employee. She has been working for me for the last 4 years. 

Before her there were three secretaries who worked for me. But they were more interested in me than my work. They always flirted with me, tried to seduce making me uncomfortable. So I fired them.

But Namrata isn't like them. She was unmarried when she joined but never tried to flirt with me and was concentrated towards her work. Karan is also a nice human being . They have been married for 3 years . They both are humble, honest and trustworthy .

"You don't have to think about work right now. You can take leave . If you want you can take leave for two weeks and don't worry Uncle will be fine." I said

"No...one week is enough. I am thinking of shifting them here. They are alone there, I can't take more risks. Karan also agreed with me and we searched for a house as well." She said.

"That's a good idea. If you need any help please let me know. I will be there for you." I said with a smile. 

While we were talking I heard a roaring laughter. The same 4 girls were laughing at something.  It amused me. The menu card girl was still sitting there covering her face.

After that we finished our coffee and left from there.

We went near her car and she turned towards me.

"You know Dhruv,you always have been a brother to me. You always have helped me and Karan. We can't thank you enough. " she said.

"You don't have to thank your brother. Now go.. don't take stress..it's not good for your baby. Don't worry Uncle will be alright. " I said. 

She is pregnant and it's her fourth month. 

"Yes. Okay Call me if you need anything in the office. Don't work much. Bye" she said and left.

I also sat in my car and drove towards home.
