I was randomly clicking pictures of the walls to that of roof, when I turned back as she called me, "Hey Beautiful!"
"Hey Kate! How are you?", I smiled wide looking at her.
She showed a rock sign with her finger and thumb, and she said, "I am fab as always!" and she winked.
I laughed, and she asked back, "How are you doing darling?"
"I am... pretty ....pretty good", I rolled my eyes and bit my lips.
She giggled, "So Zoe! A fight again," and pressed her lips when I took a deep breath, "Yeah dude tell me what are you up to?"
"Oh yeah! I have to discuss something very important with you", she replied.
I scratched my forehead, "What is that?"
"I have to submit the next slide show of AUGMENT to Rishi, my senior, within two weeks, and they gotta be clicked by you, so submit to me the new poster model portfolio, so that I can forward it ASAP!" she narrated everything to me.
I sulked. "Don't tell me I have to submit the pictures right now."
"No no. In two weeks," she replied but something struck her out of nowhere and she asked, "don't tell me that you are not available.
I nodded, "actually I had issues with the model so... you can understand."
"Did he run away?", She widened her eyes when she let me know, "Look, it has to be presented in front of Mr. Secret Man, really soon."
"Secret Man? Don't tell me the owner of AUGMENT?" I gulped down the fresh saliva formed.
She nodded her head and shrugged her shoulders, "yes your SECRET MAN, the one you have crush on, THE Secret Man because no one has seen him ever."
"Please gimme some time," I insisted a lot.
"Ha-Ha, do I look a fool to you? We are friends, but we work in a chain where we have to report to our seniors. Like you to me, I to Rishi and Rishi to your secret Man, one wrong move and I am fired!" she retorted.
I held her hands tightly, "Please tell me what should I do?"
"Okay fine! 2 weeks, find a new face and send me the portfolio that's final."
She declared while leaving.
"I, Zoya Farrooqui, a fashion photographer who has lived in New York since the demise of my parents a few years back in an accident, in love with an unknown man, was facing a different challenge to save my job in the AUGMENT, will I be able to find a new face asap?", thought I.

"You are far better than your dad in golf, my son", my father appreciated me.
"Thanks dad!", I gave him a hi-five.
He appreciated me again when he said, "You are more successful than me. I am proud of you son."
"In that fashion magazine?"
My mum intervened and laughed.
She came with a tray of juice, "How can he be someone successful, with a magazine", she had always been against me for AUGMENT, because she wanted me to handle the family business but I didn't want opportunities served in a platter.
"Mam! Can you hold this golf stick?" I questioned her.
She kept the tray on coffee table and left but stopped, "okay, you have not agreed to any of my wishes, but at least marry her, she is good for you."
"Mam! Nazneen is my cousin, I have always treated her like Najma, how can I marry her?" I argued with her.
"Then find someone better than her in two months." she challenged me while looking at me.
I stopped my father to from reacting and agreed, "Okay! I will find someone who is better than her for me and I love her or I will marry Nazneen. Fine?"
She smirked and left.
"I, Asad Khan, am a billionaire and owner of AUGMENT, a self made man, will I be able to fulfill the challenge that has knocked my door, the one to find a girl with whom I could fall in love?" I thought.

Chapter - 2James visited Zoya's office, "Hey Zoe, you were fantastic in the party. Look at the photos", and dropped the photos on the Zoya's table.She checked the photos when after shuffling some, she reached to the pictures clicked for Asad. They were fabulous, and Asad was looking beyond handsome.A smiled crept on her lips, "What happen dearo?", James winked.Zoya grinned, "Can I keep these?""Of course, clicked by you, your right", James smirked and continued, "Who is the handsome?"She chuckled at the jovial James, "Honestly, I don't know. But, I want to know him", and bit her lower lip."Can you drop me to the convent library?", She asked sweetly."Sure, let's go darling", he jumped from the chair at which Zoya laughed out loud.___In the famous Convent library, Zoya was searching for her favorite writer's book when she tiptoed slowly, towards the shelf and finally got it.She snatched it out but felt that it has a tight hold over it. She snatched it with force when the shelf was about to fall over her because someone was holding it from another side. This made her scared, and she immediately closed her eyes tight.She leaned backward but didn't feel that the shelf was over her. She slowly opened her eyes and noticed that all the books were scattered on the floor but the shelf was in the air.She frowned and realized that a tough body was holding the shelf, and it was none else than him.A pleasing smile crept over her lips when he came forward after keeping the shelf, safely."Are you nuts?", Asad asked.She didn't answer as was lost in him, "Hann", when he clasped finger over her face."Did you say anything?", She asked.He pressed his lips together, "No, I am talking to the books, which are all here on the floor""Have some manners to talk", she retorted back.He looked into his eyes, "Aapko samajh nahi aata ke book is tarah khichi nahi jati""Oh", she opened her mouth but he continued, "What if the shelf has been over you?""That's my business, not yours", she pointed her f
