Part 4Siddhant POV:
I was walking towards the dining...
I wanted to heat the lunch i bring today...
I tried to call my Secretary seeking help..
But she was not available on the seat... which i found as i tried to contact her in the intercom...
Then i decided to make it myself in the microwave oven in the dining...
I took my lunch bag and started towards dining...
I went directly into the kitchen of the dining and found staffs are having food in the dining...
Very few noticed me as they were busy having food...
Also none might expect me there as its rare for me to go to dining or kitchen...
I tooked at Roli who was having food sitting alone in a table while others were having food sitting in groups...
I thought may be she is yet to make friendship with others being new to eat with them...
I kept the food to heat into microwave and was waiting for it to be done...
'I really dont know how our MD is tolerating seeing his Secretary...' one staff said...
'Yes... normally we have seen sexy & beautiful Secretary.. but she is just strange to see...' another staff said...
'Leave beauty aside... see her dresses... Cant she even afford for nice clothes which can atleast compensate her looks...' another staff said...
'How she is managing to talk with that teeth... she is looking funny like rabbit...' another staff..
'Hair... Oh God... sticky it looks with oil... if it happens to touch her hair.. i dont think one can take out the hand back.. it will be sticking to the hands...' another staff...
Oh GOd.. what is happening in this office...
How someone can criticise someone like this...
What if someone is not beautiful... is it a crime to hear all these comments...
She is just sitting there & how she will be feeling hearing all those...
I felt like slapping those who gave such comments...
By now the microwave gave sound indicating the warming the food is done...
I took out the food from it and came out of the kitchen to dining...
'Hi everybody...' i said...
Hearing my voice... all stopped talking between them and looked at me...
'I have got something to tell you all...' i said while all were looking at me eagerly what it is about...
'I heard few unwanted comments in the office about some staff... i know who said about whom still not interested to make it any particular...;' i said glaring at those who pass the comments while they got teansed...
'I think its not ethics or manners to comment about someone... You all have come to work here and how you present your work efficiently matters than anything else... Hope you all understand and stop talking about others...' i warned...
There was complete silence in the dining...
Then i looked at Roli for the reaction...
But her expression was completely blank... I wonder how she is neutral to those comments while i was myself boiling hearing those...
I just walk towards her and sat on the same table facing her...
'Hi... ' i said...
'Hi Sir...' she replied...
'Hope you dont mind if i share your table...' i said..
'Of course Sir... what is there to mind...' she said...
We continued having food...
I was talking to her about official stuffs while having food...
She too replied with a smile for whatever i asked...
By now all others left the dining.. May be tensed about my presence in the dining..
Now myself & Roli were alone in the dining...
'Ms. Roli.. Shall i ask something...' i said...
'Yes Sir...' she said...
'Did you hear others comments little before about you...' i asked...
'Yes Sir.. i heard...' she replied...
'Didn't you feel bad about it...' i asked...
'What is there to feel bad Sir.. i am ugly and they are telling the same... what is there to bother in that...' she replied...
'Still its not right to comment about someone like that right...' i said...
'Sir... everyone wont think or act in the same way... everyone got their own way of reacting to the situations... I dont want to react much to their comments... while i saw you gave your warning to them... ' she said looking at me...
'Thanks for that Sir... But dont you think they are getting more chance for chatting now...' she asked...
'More chance.. how come...' i asked...
'Of course... now they will be commenting that MD is supporting his secretary... moreover we both are eating sitting in the same table...' she said with a smile...
'Oh.. let them... i dont mind...We cant dance for others opinions...' i said...
"Exactly... same way... if they think i am ugly.. let them think... i am not going to dance for their opinions...' she said...
I was sitting speechless on her way of reacting to the situation...
'Sir... I have done with the lunch.. i am going back to desk as i got mails to clear...' she said...
I just nod with a smile...
She got up and went back to her desk packing her lunch box...
As she went i continued having lunch...
I really like this girl attitude... if i was in her place... i might have slap those for sure...
I started admiring her heart...
