Part 1
Taking a step back in extreme anxiety, the helpless secretary looked down at the scattered papers all over the floor that her boss has thrown out of frustration...closing her eyes lavanya named all the Gods to save her from this situation, especially from her boss...'Oh God!!! I promise, in fact I swear...I will never ever doze off during my duty...just save me this last time...i beg you please!!!'...a sudden noise brought her out of the imploration as she looked back at her boss, who just stood up banging on his luxurious office table, all ready to kill his good for nothing secretary for being careless..."Listen lavanya...one more time you give me that crap, I swear you will find yourself dozing off for the rest of your life...do you get that??..." clenching his teeth while balled up his fists tight to control his anger, ASR warned the poor girl, in front of him, making her fear for her life...
"I am giving you one last chance...GO AND FIND HER ADDRESS BY HOOK OR CROOK...and that too IN 24 HOURS...for the last 2 years I have been ignoring all your stupid excuses but NOT ANYMORE...all I want is her address...and a correct one...otherwise you know very well what's coming on your way...did I make myself clear Ms. Kashap?" throwing a serious look at the person, ASR ordered her...nodding her head in affirmative manner, lavanya obeyed her boss before leaving the room...
As soon as the secretary left, Arnav ran the fingers through his thick hair, trying to calm himself from being stressed out when his eyes fell on the photo frame in front of him on the table...the picture was taken at one of his business parties, the first time his eyes fell on her elegant figure, instantly reserved her for himself only...gently picking up the frame, he touched the innocent face over the glass with his fingers as if trying to feel her...her beautiful eyes, her red blushed cheeks...and...not to mention, his lips still have that taste of those luscious parted lips...
"I know I was wrong...I am sorry...I swear that night I had no such intention to hurt you...I didn't know what came over me all of a sudden...that night for the first time my heart felt something for you that I never felt for anybody in my life...that night was the most beautiful night of my life...as I got to feel you...may be it's called love...even if it doesn't, I really don't give a damn...all I want is YOU...and ONLY YOU...you can't just throw me out of your life and decide to haunt me with your memories...if you think you can forget me and lead a peaceful life in your own little paradise then you are totally mistaken honey...no matter what, I won't let anyone touch you after me...only I have the right to touch you...so mark my words that I will get you back in my life...that's a promise from me, Arnav Singh Raizada to you, Ms. Khushi Kumari Gupta!!!"...smiling at her photo, Arnav carefully placed the frame back at the corner of his table...making sure he doesn't hurt her even in the picture...
Sitting on her chair, Lavanya immediately turned on the AC to cool herself..."this guy surely needs some lessons on controlling his anger as well as manners to talk to women.."...then contradicting herself she thought "...well can't even blame him though...who would teach him anyway???...he has got no one in his life EXCEPT his "bossy ego"..."...holding her head with her hands Lavanya howled "..Oh!! Khushi dear!!!...where are you yaar???...you made my life miserable by leaving this job...what did you do to ASR that he is after you like a hungry beast??...hope he better goes easy on you..." all of a sudden feeling concerned for the girl whom she considered as her sister...thinking of her sister like colleague, lavanya recollected the last conversation with her over the phone...she still remember her painful broken tone as Khushi sobbed uncontrollably...lavanya felt her inconsolable emotions when she said those last few words, "I have lost everything laavanya...you take care..."
