Part 12:
Alice informed Khushi about this and Dhruv was already seeing a nervous Khushi before him who had no will to Face that Mighty Beast alone before her.. Mona had gone out from the meeting room now and only Dhruv and Khushi were inside..
Dhruv: Now you cannot be so scared Khushi.. If you have made up your mind to continue this Job then have the courage to face him too.. Because next 365 days he would torture you in a similar way.. Its just how you bear him and make him realize that, that 1 night has no meaning in your life anymore.. You have MOVED ON..
Khushi clutched the sides of her Dupatta and then got up from her seat.. She walked outside towards his cabin and finally knocked the door.. He could see her from the Transparent Glass door.. She looked nervous.. Who wouldnt..!!! After what happened in last few days, she was ought to behave like this..
Arnav: Come inside..
Khushi took a deep breathe and walked inside and stood at the door not looking at him.. She was breathing hard . She was suffocating in this Cabin. A place where there was no one except him and her, always scared her.. Arnav got up from the desk and walked towards her.. She gulped seeing him coming towards her.. Every inch of distance he covered made her shiver thinking of that night.. SHe wasnt in a state to even breathe now.. She looked down leaning on the glass door behind her. He was observing her very keenly.. She still had a fear of being touched by him, she still worried what would be his nect actions, she still was confused with her decision she made to join AR office.. Nothing can be hidden from THE ASR.. He could read the face easily.. Specially hers.. He stopped when he was some 2 feet away from her and he could see her breathing fast..
Arnav: You made wise decision Khushi.. By joining AR .. (She jerked hearing him from so close but she managed to calm herself down after that.. She wasnt looking at him still..) I am sure you wouldnt have been able to pay that 2 lacs rupees just like your dad is still not paying his dues to me..
Hearing the word DAD, she could feel the anger in herself rising up to a level which she herself cannot stop from reacting to it.. Yes.. The rememberence of her dad and his deeds always made her strong to face the person before her.. She sacrificed her precious things for her dad and his business but henceforth she would do nothing like that..
Arnav noticed her once and then took out some bunch of Keys from his pockets and showed it to her..
Arnav: Your new Flat Keys.. Shift her as soon as you can..
She looked at the keys now in surprise and then at him..
Arnav: What?? Surprised? Dont think I am doing some favour for you. Its AR policy.. On Some Special criteria, we have the right to give such Flats for some special employees.. And ofcourse who else can be special than you currently.. Take it.. (He commanded )
She took the keys and he was surprised once again.. She took it without arguing? What was she trying to do? What was she trying to show?
Arnav: Thats it Miss Gupta.. You can leave..
Saying that he turned back and looked the other side.. Without any further delay she moved out and came back to her cabin.. Dhruv was already sitting there alone and he saw her with the keys in her hand..
Dhruv: You Ok Khushi?
Khushi noded and then kept the keys aside..
Dhruv: Whats that?
Khushi drank some water from the bottle first and then calmed down her senses.. She replied after 2 minutes..
Khushi: AR has offered me a new flat .. And I need to shift as soon as possible..
Dhruv was just shocked .. Yes he knew that AR had rights to give such Flats but then to earn it the employees had to be REALLY SPECIAL .. Khushi had just joined then how can his Bhai just break his own Rules and allot a Flat to her?
Dhruv: And you agreed?
Khushi: Thats why I got the Keys..
Dhruv: What is wrong with you Khushi? Do you know what does that mean?
Khushi: Dhruv.. Dont talk anything at this point .. We will talk later.. Mona needs to train me on something.. Please..
Dhruv : I think Bhai is the right person to talk to then.
Saying that he left for Arnav's cabin..
**************
Arnav was in an important meeting when Dhruv entered inside..
Dhruv: Bhai.. I need to talk to you..
Arnav: I am busy Dhruv.. Lets make it after an hour..
Dhruv: Its important.. (He said angrily)
Arnav : (Looking at the other people sitting there): We will take a short break..
Everyone walked out and Dhruv closed the door and then banged his fist on the table..
Dhruv: What are you doing Bhai? Didnt I tell you dont mess with that girl again?
Arnav: Low down your voice Dhruv.. We are at Office.. Be Professional
Dhruv: Ohh Really Bhai? Does that even matter?
Arnav: Dhruv.. Come to the point and leave the cabin..
Dhruv: Fine.. My point is "If you try to harm her again .. I would involve our family then.. "
Arnav was totally pissed.. He got up from the chair and looked at him..
Arnav (Gritting his teeth): Who the hell gave you permission to involve in my personal matters Dhruv? Since when did you start interferring in my deals?
Dhruv had only one firm reply for this question of his Bhai.. And he gave it with the same intensity..
Dhruv: Since the time you started interferring in my personal Life.. I dont know what dirty plans you have for her in your mind.. But let me warn you Bhai.. Just one scratch on her again and I would do something which you have never ever thought off..
Arnav was totally shocked to see this side of Dhruv.. He was trying to dominate ASR?
Arnav: Is that So?? Fine then.. Let me see how much are able to Save her?
Saying that Arnav himself left the cabin and then the Office angrily..
****************
Same Night..
Khushi was finally ready to leave.. She had nothing much to take with her in the new flat.. Just some few dresses which she bought before Joining AR office today. She looked at Dhruv who was standing at the Car door and was going to Drop her in her new house.. He wasnt Ok with her decision. He knew she wasnt safe there.. Arnav would keep bothering her more in his absence, he was aware of it.. But she was little stubborn. She wanted Dhruv by her side for supporting her but not so much that she forgets how to be independant.. And he had to agree to her decision.. They both started to the New flat and finally entered the Big Posh Society which had 2 , 40 floor residential buildings.. Khushi's was a Terrace Flat on the 28th Floor.. They entered the lift and then reached the floor.. She opened the Door and then they both entered inside.. He stopped at the door.. She turned to see him..
Khushi: Come inside Dhruv..
Dhruv; No Khushi.. May be not today.. I will leave.. Will see you at office tomorrow..
Saying this with heavy heart he left her and she understood he was still concerned for her and not happy.. She was so lucky to get such a friend she thought. She turned the lights On and checked the house.. It was pretty and luxorious . It had a BIG living room , 2 Big Bedrooms and One Spacious Open Kitchen next to the Living Room.. A balcony in both the Bedrooms for the best view and then a Small Terrace too.. She had never seen such a beautiful flat before.. It was fully furnished with all the necessary equipments and stuffs that needed to make a Place a better Home..
She walked inside the bedroom and then saw something on the bed.. It looked like a Gift..She walked to the bed and checked it.. It was wrapped by a Red Paper and it had a small note attached stating "Welcome to ASR's World" ..
She immediately threw the gift again on the bed.. So this was from him.. Why? What more does he want from her? She kept looking at the gift angrily for sometime and then finally she thought of openeing it.. She sat on the bed and opened the gift.. It had a Red Saree inside with a Designer Blouse and a Note again..
" Tried to get a similar Saree like you wore that night.. Am sure you liked it "
She threw the saree on the bed and got up from there and left to the Living room.
