The new promo has showed the true colors of Sandeep.
I tried to write concisely what could happen, based on the promo.
It is an unedited text, written in a hurry. Pls ignore typos.
Do tell me if you like it. 😳
...
Tears welled up. She couldn't believe something like that could happen to her. How much more was she supposed to suffer?
Sandeep looked like a real decent guy in the office. He was her only friend who helped her in everything and every way.
But today...
She felt so vulnerable and hurt. Why always me?
Flashback
"You know how thankful I am to you Sandeep! Thank you so much.! " Shobha was really grateful to him for helping her with the advertisement designing.
Sandeep eyed her with a very happy expression.
" I knew you would come, Shobha. What would you like, tea or coffee? "
Some thing about his stare was unusual. Something weird. After a moment, she chose to ignore it. " Tea."
"Here! " he handed her tea. " Stay here, I'll be back. " He lightly touched her hand and left.
What was that? Why did he...
She didn't realise due to her trail of thoughts and spilled the tea on her hand.
Sandeep was this as a perfect opportunity and rushed to her.
"Oh my. I am so sorry. I spilled the tea... "
Sandeep didn't even let her complete her sentence. He took her hand and massaged it. " its alright shobha "
She suddenly saw those lustful eyes staring at her. He inched closer. Shobha shook his hand off.
She knew where this was going. She backed away.
He inched more closer and rested his hand on hee waist and took off her dupatta.
Shobha, in fear and horror, pushed Sandeep with all her might.
She looked frantically around for her bag, breathing heavily.
Sandeep realised he shouldn't have been so impatient.
"Shobha, no I didn't meant it that way! "
She gathered herself up." Yes you did! I thought you were a good friend. You... "
" No Shobha, really... "
" Please stay away from me. I won't refrain to lodge a complaint.. " Saying this she rushed out, taking unusually large steps. Her eyes full of tears.
" Shit man! She might complain about me. Have to do something about it. That idiot woman! " he cursed.
...
She felt like shouting loud. Take out all her anger. This is what corporate working women have to deal with! She understood it now.
"Bhabs, you should talk to your boss about it. "
" Garu, why would he believe me? He already hates me so much! "
" But, you can't just ignore it Bhabs. This is serious. "
Shobha pondered over her words. Maybe, just may be talking to Vikram about it might help.
She didn't know how she was going to deal with this. Tomorrow was going to be the worst day of her life.
...
Taking a deep breath, she entered her office.
Her eyes searched for him. How could he do this to me?
No. I must stay strong. I will have to try to talk with Vikram. She walked towards his cabin.
All the color drained off her face when she saw Sandeep talking to Vikram about her. She quickly turned her back to them. She could make out the words quite clearly.
"I tell you Vikram, this Shobha is a characterless woman. I helped her a couple of times and she directly came to my home. I mean her husband is in jail. So she has taken me for a new pasttime... "
Vikram listened to him with a passive face. His eyes locked on Shobha.
After sandeep completed his complaining, Vikram replied. " Listen. I have no idea what happened between you and Shobha. Since i don't know anything, i cannot judge shobha though you might get the benefit of doubt. "
Sandeep grumbled.
Why is this Vikram playing hard. Doesn't he want shobha to be out of here? Damn that guy.
The whole day went by uneventful, though shobha was still worried what Vikram might say to her.
Sandeep has told him a very different story. They are friends for so many years. If I told him what happened, why would he believe me? Who am I to him?
...
Vikram was confused. Why would Shobha behave like that?
I have known sandeep for so many years. Would he really harass someone?
Now as he thought about it, he felt he really didn't know much about his friend's nature.
About Shobha, accepted her husband was in jail, but Shobha wouldn't go to such lengths.
He remembered every single instance in which they were together.
He had known her for just few days. But there was something, that tiny bugging in the corner of his mind that asked him to believe her.
He needed to talk to her.
...
"You know, sitting like that and crying, this is what losers do. And I hate losers. If you really feel that bad, get up and fight!"
Shobha looked up at him. "What do you care?Are you here to fire me? I did nothing of what sandeep told you." she blurted out.
"Hmm. I never said anything about Sandeep."
"But.. " Shobha realised he had cleverly pulled out those words from her.
"You just sit there, crying. And if you don't act now, you will actually regret it later. I guarantee it."
"Why would you believe me? He is someone you have known for years. "
Vikram's face became serious.
" Snap out of your fantasy world ! Look around, you'll notice the harsh reality. It is a big, bad world Shobha! And I am not blind not to see the truth. You know what I am talking about! Instead of sulking here and cursing the guy who harassed you, GET UP! FIGHT BACK! "
Shobha snapped at him, "You knew?"
"I have known him for 15 years. Now, are you going to act or keep asking me unnecessary questions? "
Wiping her tears, she slowly got up.
"C'mon." he took her hand and literally pulled her.
Their car screeched to a stop in front of Sandeep's building.
She rang the door bell.
Shobha had felt nervous before, but vikram's words had worked like a medicine. She didn't fear now. Her eyes showed a certain confidence.
Sandeep opened the door.
"Oh, it's you Shobha! Couldn't resist me?" he smiled lustfully. " Looks like you liked my touch yesterday!? "
You.. Creep? How can you behave like that with your colleagues? How dare you touch me?"
"Ooh. Miss. Courageous is angry! You want to slap me? Punch me? " He laughed." Do it. By that way, I can at least feel your touch..! " He winked at her.
"Then you might love my touch too, Sandeep. " Vikram walked and stood right in front of him.
"Here," he smiled before landing a perfect punch on sandeep's face.
"What, you... Vikram!? When did you? You should believe me! And not this liar, characterless woman!" He croaked, regaining his posture from the blow. His hand covering his bloodied nose.
"You confessed it yourself just now."
"What? No. You didn't... "
"You still don't get it, do you? "
Vikram's eyes had become dangerously dark, his words piercing like a knife. He pulled Sandeep by the scruff of his neck and punched him again. " I suppose, now you get it. "
He let go off him. Sandeep fell on the floor in a heap.
"Lets go, Shobha. " Vikram said, motion her to get going.
"One small thing, you are fired." said Vikram to sandeep before leaving.
Shobha was watching everything with calm eyes and bated breath. She stood there, shocked and surprised. This side of Vikram, it was different , she knew and very difficult to understand.
When they were outside, Shobha looked at him.
"I suppose, when someone helps you, a word of thanks is expected." he smirked.
Shobha smiled. He is back to normal.
"Ofcourse. Mr. Vikram. "
...
This is it. I would really like to know your views .😊
