♦Diya♦

Everyone is well aware of the fact I hate lies still they end up doing crazy things. Why doesn't anyone understand it gets me angry?

I felt bad thinking about how I spoke to Krish when nothing was his fault in this. I shouldn't have spoken to him like that. Why do I always do the same mistake? Ugh! But it's also Dad and Vee's fault somewhere... No, it's all their fault! Yes! How hard can it be to stay simple and real? Why can't they behave normally? Vee is never going to be mature but I didn't expect it from Dad. Am I some six-year-old toddler for whom there should be stupid surprises prepared? How childish and a waste of time that is!

I sigh.

*Elevator dings*

I walked out of the elevator and there she is with a red silk cloth on!

I walked closer slowly and pull off the silk cloth.

My goodness!

I froze in my tracks and happily gawked at the bike parked in front of my eyes.

Black. Bold. Beautiful!

I walked toward her and placed my palm flat on the leather black seat. I caress the seat.

Crouching down on the ground, I checked every part of her. They had changed most of the parts to new ones. Ahh, how bad of a state she was in! I'm sorry buddy.

I haven't hurt much myself, I was lucky I didn't break any limb just got a few serious scratches here and there and that's it but she was badly hurt.

That day, I don't understand how it happened. The brakes suddenly stopped functioning properly. The wires got loose, she wasn't checked as she was fine the other day. And we never checked her. I was confident nothing could go wrong but unfortunately, it did that day and all that happened. It was a bad day!

I put a hand on the seat and stood up.

I can see Dad did a great job! Not that he did it with his own hands but he made it done for me. He knows how much I love her. No matter how many bikes I buy she is always going to be special to my heart. And she's lucky for me too.

"Like what you see?" Veronica said entering the parking area with Dad walking along her side. She had a grin on her face.

I smirked.

They both stood beside me.

"They had to change the colour as her state was very critical, and some parts had to be fully changed. So I told them to go for black. You like her?" Dad explained to me.

"She looks more devious now," I stated with excitement.

They both chuckled at that.

"Hey! I can now ride her in the race tomorrow!" I realised.

"Mr Sen, how slow can a human be?" I smacked her shoulder as she said that.

"Violence!" she glared and screamed while caressing her shoulder.

"Then keep your mouth shut? But that you can't do!"

She glared more at me.

"Okay, guys peace out! Peace," Dad spoke in the middle and gave us both an are-you-a-kid look.

"There is one more surprise, I already gave your name for the race and the bike has been tested too."

"Ahem. Ahem. Reason for my late arrival."

"You rode my bike before me?"

"Of course!" she grinned.

"Do not touch her before my permission again!"

She touched the bike's seat and stick her tongue out as if she were a kid.

"That was childish," I remarked.

"Why do you always have to be so serious like a patient on the bed." She complained.

"ENOUGH!!!" Dad yells his lungs out.

I and Veronica both put our fingers on our lips.

Dad glared at me and Veronica.

"No more senseless argument. Am I clear?" he commanded.

We both nod our heads.

"But just two days ago the repairing team told me she wouldn't be done for the race, the complete parts repairing wasn't possible before that time. The head itself told me this when I asked."

I was confused about how did they do it.

"Nothing is impossible they say!" Veronica grinned. They lied too!

"Tell the team, they all are fired!" I said angrily.

"Why?!"

"Why?!"

They both asked together with surprised expressions.

"Because I'm the one who paid them and they still lie to me to my face," I said with a calm voice.

"Ugh! Diya they did a great job and they told you what I told them to say," Dad said.

"They work for me not you! And if they work for me they are loyal to me!" I exclaimed.

*Phone rings*

"Thank goodness!" Veronica mumbled.

Krish calling.

"Yes, Krish?"

"Boss, your meeting starts in 15 minutes "

"Yeah, I'm coming," I hang up the call.

I turn towards the bike and it melts my heart, "thanks, guys!" I genuinely thank them.

"Ah, I thought you will suck out our blood and still won't appreciate us," Veronica spoke and I rolled my eyes at that.

She grinned.

Dad laughed and I went and hugged him. "Thank you!" I whispered to him.

He pecked my head lovingly.

"

The meeting is dismissed," Krish said.

Everyone exited the meeting hall and I as well headed to my office.

As I got comfortable in my chair I heard a knock on the door.

"Oh Krish, come in," I smiled.

He entered with a nod of his head and a smile on his lips.

I again notice his shirt's hearts. I want a shirt like this for me now. Won't I look cute in it? I'll buy it anyways.

"Before anything else I want to tell you one thing, this shirt is looking good on you!"

He blushed hearing that. I'm sure he's going on a date after all hearts and all.

"Thanks, Boss," he replied with a goofy smile on his face.

"When is your date? If you would have told me earlier I should have given you a haft day off." I told him.

"Date? Who?" he asked confused.

"You?" his confused response confused me too.

"Me?" he started laughing, "No, no... I'm going to a break-up party. My friend's girlfriend just cheated on him and well, my other friends think it calls for a party. So, I thought I'll go there directly after work."

"Oh, I see," we both laughed.

"I came to inform you that the meeting with the Honey Silk company from Germany has been fixed. You asked me to arrange it for coming Monday. They just emailed us that they have agreed. The CEO and the MD of the company should arrive at the meeting. "

"That's good news!" Honey Silk are looking up for a partner to spread their branch here. It would be a great opportunity for us if they join hands with us. It would be a huge profit for our company.

It'll be an interesting meeting.
