Waise aapki coffee kafi acchi hai. It can give major retailers a run for their money'- She told him as she sipped on her coffee at his house.
Thank you Miss Ananya Kashyap. Agar yeh compliment app uss hi din de deti toh itni musibat nahn hoti.'- He teased her
Don't you even start with that day? I accepted the olive branch magar aap thodi na sudhartein hai. Shuru ho gaye mujhe tang karne'- She accused him
Acha chalo chodo. Tumhe kya lagta hai should we open a coffee shop or a news channel. I think Im good at both'- he mused
She stared at him not sure if he was joking or was he serious? With him you could never be very sure.
"Are you serious? You have worked so hard to be where you are, kya aap yeh sab aise hi gawa dena chahate hain?'- She asked him not wanting him to repent his decision
Ananya main life mein koi bhi kaam karke repent nahn karta. Tum mere saath ho to jahan hai. Rest don't worry aaj raat ki 9 baje ka bulletin main hi padhunga'- he smiled at her
Khalid sir aap ko ofcourse waapis bula leinge but mera kya? I don't want you to pull any strings and ask for reinstating. I don't want to one of those girlfriends who rose up the success ladder courtesy their distinguished boyfriend'- she told him earnestly.
Ananya I think tum who pehli girl friend hogi jo courtesy uske so called distinguished boy friend ki wajah se naukri se hatt gayi. So don't worry no one in their right frame of mind can ever accuse you of that'- he told her as he took her hand in his and stared at their intertwined fingers.
Ananya you are a brilliant journalist. The best I have ever seen as your age. You are fearless , astute, upright and instinctive. With me or without me you will scale the heights of success'- he told her with conviction.
She smiled at him and bent forward to press a light kiss on lips. He was her pillar of strength and her renewed hope!
He smiled at her and said-If we start kissing Miss.Kashyap raat ke bulletin ki main guarantee nahn leta'
She blushed at him and again heard his phone buzz
He looked at the phone and told her-Lets put Khalid out of his misery,shall we?''
Haan Kahlid!"
"Who toh tum Malvika se pucho. She reiterated that she is the owner's daughter'
Nahn Khalid. Mere ghar mein discussion nahn hoga. Jab exit itna public that oh discussion bhi sabke ssamne hone chahye'
Theek hai we will be these in 15 minutes. Get everyone in conference room'
He cut the call and stared at Ananya's beautiful face that was etched in confusion- Ananya, Im proud to be with you. I don't want ki tumhare job tumhe waapis mile aur logon ko lage ki yeh sab meri wajah se hua hai. You will get your job because you deserve it. Kuch bhi band kamre mein nahn hoga'
She smiled at him and followed him outside as they drove to KKN.
The conference room was packed and it was a spectacle.
Kabir walked in and everyone straightened in chair chairs. Ananya realized that Kabir didn't demand respect but he commanded it. They both occupied the empty chairs and Khalid spoke.
Kabir mujhe laga tum saas bahu drama nahn dekhte. Tumne toh aaj ek khud hi script kar diya'- Khalid told him
Khalid channel ki saas toh tum ho. Yeh toh tumhara aur Malvika ka drama hai'- Kabir answered with aplomb
Kabir aisi kya narazgi? Tum toh channel chodne ki baatein karne lag pade. We are a family. Issues sort out ho jaatein hai'- Khalid said
Exactly. That is what I wanted to do but Malvika played her owner's daughters card. Ab kya karein na Khalid self respect ka sawaal hai'- Kabir said as he looked at Malvika
Maine tumhe kuch bhi nahn kaha tha Kabir. Mera point sirf itna tha ki agar Ananya resign kar chukka hai toh what is she still doing as an employee in KKN'- Malvika reasoned.
Aur iska explanation aapko Kabir ne diya. He told you that he never accepted my resignation and I didn't revert with any email. The sole confirmation was on a phone. That is null and void. Hai na Khalid sir'? - Ananya asked Khalid
Aj toh dono team ki tarah mujh pe tut pade. I agree with you Ananya. Of course you are still a very valued employee of KKN'- Khalid reassured her
But Khalid..'- MAlvika interrupted
Oh Malvika! For the love of god shut up. I discussed it with KL and this is final'- Khalid told Malvika as she fumed
All of Ananya's friends sniggered and gave each other smiles - their best friend was back!
Kabir are you happy now? Ab toh apni editor in chief ki kursi sambhal lo'- Khalid told Kabir
Not so soon Khalid. I want Maalvika to officially apologise to Ananya'- Kabir announced.
There was pin drop silence in the conference room. Ananya stared at Kabir. She didn't want any preferential treatment.
Arre wah Kabir Sahab, ab toh aap personal ho rahein hai. Matlab job hi hai aapka Ananya ke saath yeh toh personal hai'- Manav who was a silent spectator in the room found his voice.
Manav haan mera ek personal equation hai Ananya ke saath magar yeh apology toh professional hai. Agar main personal pe aa gaya toh keher ho jayega'- he told Manav Gupta with a deathly still voice.
Lag toh personal hi raha hai...'- Manav continued. He didn't want Kabir to join back , he had his eyes set on that coveted position of editor in chief for the longest time.
Kabir just gave him a deathly stare challenging him to speak another word!
Oh Manav. Shut up. Malvika ki apology and what else? Aur kya conditions hai tumhari?'' - Khalid asked him
Khalid, yeh toh sara sar man maani hai. Kabir ko indispensable ki tarah kyon treat kiya jaata hai?'- Manav fumed
Oh Manav. Itna hi bura lag raha hai toh please resign and decide early. We have to inform Richa to read the 8 o'clock bulletin then'- Khalid looked at Richa wwho just nodded her head
Waise bhi tum hare breaking news mein sirf Mahaballi Hanuman hote hain'- Khalid told him as the entire conference room suppressed their grin.
Malvika stared at Ananya! Ananya stared defiantly at Malvika knowing that Kabir would have a good reason if he had asked Malvika for an apology.
Apologize and me? What for? Just because I stated a few facts'- Malvika shook her head
Nahn Malvika aplogise for meddling in someone's professional career.'- Kabir told her with authority
Tumhe kyon bura lag raha hai Kabir? I don't see Ananya complaining. Just because who tumhari girl friend hai toh tumne use personal issue bana liya hai'- she dismissed him
Malvika maine pehle bhi kaha ki abhi maine isse personal banaya nahn hai and don't force me to there. Ananya is a valued employee of this organization and you orchestrated her exit from here. You got in touch with that placement agency and asked them to draft an offer that she couldn't refuse. You played with her emotions and nearly jeopardized her career'- Kabir thundered at Malvika
All the eyes in the conference room were fixed on Malvika appalled that she had stooped so low.
Isliye Malvika main keh raha hun , ki abhi toh main personal hua nahn. This is about Ananya as an employee and not about my personal equation with her'' - He informed her with his eyes throwing daggers at her.
Malvika gulped and stared at the conference room. She was stupid but not that stupid! She knew she was cornered.
Im sorry Ananya! I shouldn't have done what I did. It was juvenile and very immature of me. Please forgive me'- She looked at Ananya
Ananya looked at her and knew this was long from over !
Its all right. I'm sure you had your reasons no matter how stupid they were'- Ananya gave her a fake smile.
She felt Kabir squeeze her hand from under the table. This man knew when to play his cards! He was a genius and he was hers. She smiled
Great! Kabir tum mere saath chalo mujhe kuch baat karni hai. Everyone else please get back to work. Aaj ka drama samapt hua. Move along!'- Khalid announced as he stepped out of the conference room with Kabir.
The conference room cleared out leaving Ananaya with her friends
"Teri life bhi na puri drama hai'- Richa told her as she hugged her.
Teri life na filmy hai. Full masala story aur ab ek dum mast hero. Chal kya raha hai'?'- Trisha asked Ananya.
Ananya looked at Ronnie knowing her answer was going to hurt him but she didn't want to lie about her relationship either.
Kabir and I confessed about our feelings. He told me he loves me'- she told everyone her eyes not leaving Ronnie
Ronnie came forward and hugged her- Ananya bura lag raha hai magar jyada main khush hun'
She smiled at Ronnie and all her friends! Life was only going to get better from here on!
Suddenly she heard Sunny ask Richa - Oyi Manav sir ruk rahein hai ki jaa rahein hai? Unhone kuch specify nahn kiya. After all humari Richa ji ko last minute bulletin padhna padega'
