Chapter 1:
She got up, slamming her hands on the desk in front of him. "Who said you were the father. I'm pregnant with your brother's baby."
*************
"You're pregnant with my brother's baby? Do you even know what you're saying? For all I know, my brother's not that stupid, that he would knowingly get some random girl pregnant" he retorted, angry that someone could throw such an accusation at his brother.
However, she was not fazed by his angry response. She answered the man in front of her with just as much confidence, not faltered by his mean looks and commanding presence. "But he did, and when I talked to him, he said he doesn't want anything to do with the baby or anything to do with me, to keep it out of his family's ears and make sure no one ever finds out."
At this, the man raised his one eyebrow, a slight questioning look on his face. "So this kid is the product of a one night stand and you expect me to believe that this is my brother's kid without any proof. Do you think I'm crazy or are you the one thats mentally instable?" he questioned.
"Excusee me, Mister. I'm not crazy and considering you are the owner of this entire thing, I'm guessing that you aren't either. Am I right? But anyways, you're asking me for proof? I'm not one to go and get pregnant with anyone and everyone. Humph"
"But I'm going to require some sort of DNA paternity tests to prove that my brother is your baby's father. Then and only then will I even consider thinking about this issue and taking some action on this matter," the "Mister" replied.
"Of course you will" she snorted, contemplating in her mind whether she should actually go through with this entire situation.
"I'm busy today. So tomorrow, 9 AM, I want you at Sanjivani. We'll conduct the tests and then I'll see what to do about this entire situation" he ordered, as he finally turned away from her and looked down at his work again.
Getting the message, she turned away and began walking out of the cabin door. She thought about how she had landed in this situation, how she had been cheated by his brother, and how now, she was in such a big mess. "Should I actually go to the hospital tomorrow? He'll just throw money in my face and tell me to leave. What will I do then?" she wondered to herself, as she headed opened the door.
However, before she could close it though, she heard him say, "Wait. I don't want to wait until tomorrow. We're going now. Stay right here."
She turned around, looking at him with a puzzled face. "Why not wait until tomorrow? You don't trust me anyways, so why so eager?"
He stared back at her with a dumb look, not knowing why even he was paying any attention to this girl, this annoying, loud, and rude girl.
She smirked, as she responded "Maybe because you know that I'm telling the truth. Your brother isn't the world's kindest soul, if you haven't realized."
"Shut up. I don't have time for this mindless arguing. Let's go" he ordered, as he grabbed his laptop and made his way out of the door. He pushed her aside as he headed to the elevator. When everyone else in his office stood up at his sight, saying "Hello sir" he merely grunted in response, giving them a cold hard stare and stomping ahead.
Seeing this, she muttered "Khadoos" thinking that no one would hear. But the person she was referring to did hear, as did the office workers around them. While they all just stared at this girl, looking shocked at how she put all their thoughts into words, he turned around and gave her a hard glare. "WHAT did you just say? You weren't referring to me, were you?" he questioned, threatening her to say otherwise.
However, she remained unfazed by his cold, hard demeanor. Looking back into his coal black eyes, she responded "Who else would I be referring to? I was just calling a khadoos, a khadoos."
The jaws of everyone around them dropped to the ground, as did some of the files in the hands of these people when they heard. "Who is this girl that has the audacity to respond to sir?" they muttered amongst themselves.
He, however, was just as shocked as his employees, hearing someone actually respond to him, rather than merely shivering in fear, which was the usual response. "Well miss. If we've had enough of these taunts, do you want to get going to the hospital?" he questioned, not knowing how else to change the topic and get out of this embarrassing situation.
*********
On the way to the hospital, he called up his brother.
"Hey yaar. We going to the disco tonight or hitting up a bar?" he questioned, picking up his phone without looking at the caller id.
Hearing this, he was angered and fury bubbled through in his voice. "Mr. Dev Khurana. This is your brother. Get to Sanjivani in 20 minutes. I don't want to hear any excuses." He cut the call.
Dev, by then, began to worry, for two reasons. First, he was called to the hospital and that meant some was in danger. Second, he just sounded like an irresponsible fool to his brother. "Oh darn" he exclaimed as he quickly through on some clothes and ran out of his room to the hospital. "I am in so much trouble" he thought, not realizing that there was another added worry waiting for him when he got to the hospital.
Precap: Dev gets to the hospital and sees her. How does he react and what does he say?
