the paths we tread.
What gives way to our most dangerous thoughts is the heart but what if it closes doors to any kind of feeling that might cause it to sway towards such paths? What if the heart does not want love, what if it wants hatred? What if that heart belong to none else than Arnav Singh Raizada but it wasn't the heart that wanted to be smeared with hatred and detestment it was the mind because the heart belonged to the soft and sublte Arnav who needed and pined for a beautiful feeling called love. But there were always that ASR could turn off his tune to his heart and only listen to his ever so held in the past greiving for revenge against who took all he was away from him and his sister, admist all arnav was lost somewhere among there.
''sir'' fumbling with the files in her hand, adorned in a dark blue churidaar and her hair in a knot khushi walked in gracefully as ever stumbling with the files in her hand. Ever since she had joined here there had not been one day of her life that had not become a curse but the bottom line was Khushi Kumari Gupta was never one to walk away from a challenge.
Even if the boss was a three headed devil who possibly did all that he could to make her life a hell in this office. From coming in early to jobs that were not even worth mentioning, she had done them all.
The Raizada industries did not lack employees but she was a special one not in the terms of positivity but rather Arnav Singh Raizada had some kind of personal resentment towards her and he worked hard everyday to make sure she suffered. What had she done to him? That was mystery for all!
But she was not less in any form either, and well Ms Gupta was in it for all or for nothing. And she had chosen all.
''Did you finish re-typing all those letters?'' arrogant was he, but than again all those who strived on money were full of ego.
twitching khushi nodded hesitantly, '' is that all sir?''
irratation flickered in his eyes and he glared at her, '' this is an office, where you work and earn money. Ms Gupta in the Raizada Industries there can't be ''is that all'' theres always something to do'' pausing he pulled out another file, '' i want you to run a check over all these companies and than report back to me'' throwing the file towards her he shuffled in his seat and smiled, 'any problem?''
Problem? he had the nerve to ask if there was problem when the biggest problem was he himself! Why was god testing her patience, she was a good girl and always listened to her parents. Than why this examination? why did she have to prove him wrong when in her heart she knew where she stood was a much better place than where he stood. Why was there a need to for her to cause him to loose all that ego he boasted himself on? Why did she need to him to admit, money was not everything.
She knew why very well but as they say some answers must be kept hidden even from ourselves or they lead us to paths we may never return from.
''no sir'' forcing a smile Khushi picked up the file and headed out not before bumping into Lavanya, '' Sorry Mam''
''can't you watch where you are going?''
Khushi smirked,'''mam if you will wear unglasses in office your bound to trip and fall''
''youuu!'' lavanya screamed pulling off her shades that she happened to be wearing in the office.
''yes its me, Khushi''
''how dare you talk to me like this'' flaring up lavanya held up her hand, '' is this how you respect your boss''
''first this is how i talk to everyone! and second my boss is sitting'' turning around she pointed to ASR, 'right there''
Lavanya opened her mouth to respond but ASR cut way, '' if i remmeber this is an office not a playground'turning his attention to khushi he grinned, '' and Mr gupta don't you have some reports to work on?''
Khushi hurried away whilst lavanya found her way into ASR's cabin, everything was in its perfect place, and that always made her wonder, where was she? in his life? Sometimes people make the wrong decisions in life, but she never cosidered ASR her wrong he was always the one for her and she would make sure of that till her last breath.
''lavanya what are you doing here?''
snapping out of her thoughts Lavanya smiled, '' i came to take you out to lunch'' grinning she held on to his arm, '' come on ASR im very hungry and i know you have not eaten yet''
Was he doing wrong to her? Or was he just doing wrong to himself? But how could years of making be wrong, how could his ideals, thoughts, goals, moral all be wrong. No they couldn't be and the path he was treading on was the only one meant for him. It was his life hardwork, and he earned it. He deserved the right to be called ASR not just because he was rich rather because it was his hardwork and sweat that went into what he is today. Arnav Singh Raizada, he wore that tittle with as much pride as his ego.
''lavanya you know i hate all this type of stuff and in office you are my secretary and only secretary''
frowning lavanya let go of his arm, '' fine, go to hell'' stomping away with anger Lavanya smashed the door as she exited.
Hell was where he was going, in khushi's opinion. The man was not of emotion but of power and money and those kind people only deserved bad. But why did her heart flutter when the thought of something bad happening to him came into her mind.
''your going madd khushi, concentrate'' mumbling, Khushi hoarded herself into the pile of work that was still awaiting for her. How could she focus when all she could think of her was her shrew of a boss.
ignoring her own temptations of thoughts, Khushi became busy with her work and buzzed any thoughts or ideas about ASR out of her system but how is one to close doors to whats making place in the heart? Simple. You can't.
-----------------------------------------------------------
You fall yet you don't? How is one to live with that...to know your falling hard for a person yet still the doors of the heart stay shut pushing away the feelings. The feelings that are wanted yet not wanted, thoughts that spring up whenever they want but go away never, and the person who you never expected to matter so much in your life suddenly starts to matter more and more with each passing breath.
He had a hard time trusting. But than again who could really blame him? The ones who brought him into this world let him and his sister alone to suffer. it was easy to make place for mistrust and resentment towards what you need the most.
''Arnav ?''
''its just that when she's around, I just feel more... I feel more alive like as i have been released ... ''
