After Naina's interview she was sitting in the nearby cafe , engrossed in her thoughts

"Thinking about me?"a voice asked

"Ohh hi sir" Naina said

"Why do you call me sir?"

"Isn't it obvious you are the owner of Maheshwari Industries , so that's the only reason why I call you sir "

"Okay can I have a seat?"

"Sure" Naina said

"So Miss Naina , done with your interview?"

"Yes pretty much "

"So what would you have ?"

"Umm sorry what? "

"Yaa we are sitting in a cafe so I am considering this as a date "

"No this is not"

"Oh come-on you are definitely not rejecting a hot guy sitting in front of you "

"You know what I am leaving "

"Ok ok cool down I am just kidding , but of course we can be friends , can't we?"

" Ya why not"

"So I have a condition"

"What are you , what is the need to place a condition to befriend anyone "

"Why are you always so angry , my condition is that you will stop calling me sir outside office hours "

"Ohh , that's fine so I will have to leave now will see you tomorrow, bye"

"Shall I drop you ?" Sameer asked

"No no it's completely fine , I will go by myself "

"Ok then let me walk you out"

On leaving the cafe they realised that it was raining very heavily and Naina got a bit worried for how she will reach home

"Oh god it's raining how are you gonna go home, got an umbrella?", Sameer asked

"Well no "

"So common now I will have to drop you , and no ifs and buts get in the car"

Both sat in the car and drove away for Naina's house

"Do you mind if I play on the music?" Sameer said

"No of course not "

The rest of the drive went in comfortable silence , in half an hour or so the reached her house
Naina was just gonna get out of the car when Sameer's phone rang
She noticed his expressions turning tense slowly
After ending the call she asked him

"Any issues"

"Ya it was munna that's shirt for Manoj my friend , he told me that all the highways and roads are clogged due to heavy rains , so I guess I will have to stay in the car today"

"Umm you can stay I'm my house till the rain stops , if you want"

"Is that an open invitation?"

"What , No, I'm just trying to help "

Sameer starts to laugh

"Oh god you should look at your face , cool down I was joking but are you sure you will be comfortable ?"

"Ya , it feels like I can trust you so I think I will be"

"Okay then I will just park the car "
