After a long day of enjoyment, everyone returned to rr headquarters where everyone else except Shri was staying

Disha: are Shri yaar suno tum Aaj yahi ruk jao na bohot maza aayega sb sath me baith k baate karenge na

Disha: yeeee, chalo ab andr chalo yaha bahar khade khade kya krre h sb

Everyone went inside and gathered in the team common room

Everyone sat in a circle and started the conversations

Riyan: bhai kl tk to thik tha tu ,ab raat raat tk garden me ghumega to beemar to hoga hi na

Yuzi: isi liye bolte h Rohit Bhai ki baat Sunni cahiye

Dhruv : acha vo choro , Shri aapko kesa laga inke saath ghumke ,pareshan to ni Kia riyan ne

Shri looked at riyan remembering what happened today ,she could see riyan's face getting slightly red

Shri: nahi yr sb log bohot ache h and esa to laga hi ni ki bus do din se janti hu sabko , essa laga ki saalo se dost hai

Dhruv: oho yr mujhe b aana tha tum logo k sath

The talks went on for hours and hours until everyone was tired

Disha: guys yr merko nind aari h , I think hamko Sona cahiye ab

Dhanashree: haan yr same here

Yuzi: vo jurel ki to aadhi nind Puri ho gyi waha

Everyone got up and went in their rooms with their partners

Now the question was , where will Shri sleep ,the only room with space in it was riyan's

Riyan: Shri mai disha ya dhanashree bhabhi se exchange kr du tum unke sath so Jana

Shri: nahi it's ok unko unke partners k sath wese b km time spend karne ko milta h mai ni chahti ki unko disturb ho

Riyan: but are you comfortable sleeping in my room? After what happened today

Shri: Maine bola tha na riyan it wasn't your fault, now let's go mujhe nind aari h

Riyan: acha chalo

When they reached riyan's room ,Shri sat on the bed and fell backwards

She was riyan taking an extra pillow and blanket from cupboard and putting it on the ground

Shri: riyan ye kya krre ho

Riyan : Shri mai neeche so jata hu tum aaram se bed pe so jao

Shri: pagal ho kya neeche kyu sore ho , I am fine sharing bed with you

Riyan: are you sure?

Shri: of course I am riyan

Riyan grabbed the pillow me put it on the other side of bed beside Shri

Both of them were laying there maintaining a respectful distance until both of them slowly drifted off to sleep

Next morning

Riyan got woken up by faint groaning sounds coming from next to him

He saw that Shri looked visibly in pain yet still somehow sleeping

Riyan: hey Shri are you okay ?

He said while slowly trying to wake her from her sleep

Shri slowly opened her eyes and tried to adjust her eyes to the brightness of the light

Riyan: hey what happened are you okay

Shri could feel a stabbing pain in her lower abdomen as if someone was inserting a knife in her abdomen and thighs, that's when she realised

Shri: fuck

Riyan: what

Shri: no no no how can I forget

Riyan: what happened Shri you are making me feel scared now , are you okay?

Shri: riyan I think I got my periods

Riyan didn't knew how to react , he was familiar with periods but the only female he had in his life was his mom , so he wasn't sure how to comfort her or what to say

Riyan: um how can I help you ? Do you need like pads or what's the other thing ?

Shri: tampons?

Riyan: yea tampons , do you need like warm water or like should I idk what should I do Shri say something

Shri: hey calm down , it's okay ,can you get me some pads from the pharmacy and an underwear , this one might be ruined so

Riyan: yes sure I'll be right back

Shri: alright thank you

Riyan went to the pharmacy and got her pads and then went to a Mart to get her underwear, he found it , as he was on his way to check out he saw a basket of chocolates with a teddy in it , he remembered reading somewhere that chocolate makes women feel good during their periods so he grabbed that as well and went to check out and returned back to his room

Riyan: Shri I am back

Shri: thank you so much riyan thanks alot

Riyan: mention not , and actually I got something else for you as well, I heard chocolates makes you feel good during periods

He said while giving her the basket

Shri: are riyan iski kya zarurat thi yr , you are literally the sweetest, thank you so much

She said and gave him a hug that caught him off guard but he quickly eased into it

Riyan: as I said thank you ki baat hi ni h Shri

He said softly while hugging her

As their hug broke , Shri went to get cleaned up in the washroom
Riyan was sitting on his bed and started to think about the hug , it felt nice , a genuine one , a thought crossed his mind all of a sudden, am I developing feelings for her! But he brushed it off , nah she's just a friend i am looking too deep into the situation, his thoughts were interrupted when Shri came out of the washroom

Riyan: how are you feeling?

Shri: I feel okay just my stomach hurts a bit

Riyan: suno tum na bed pe baith jao I'll be right back okay?

Shri: acha thik h

After a while riyan returned to his room with a hot water bag

Riyan: isko stomach pe rakh do thoda relief milega

Shri: thank you so much yr

Riyan: are Shri Maine bola tha na no thank you

Shri: acha sorry baba

Riyan: do you feel a little relief now?

Shri: yes I do

Riyan: suno agar kuch b zarurat hogi na do let me know

Shri: I will

Riyan was about to leave the room when he heard

Shri: Riyan

Riyan turned around to look at her

Shri: stay please

Shri didn't know why she said that ,it was like her mind was not in her control

Riyan: okay

Riyan sat beside her and opened the basket of chocolates and gave her one

Shri: riyan vo teddy Dena

Riyan passed her the teddy and she held it in a hug , it wasn't very big but small and cute

Riyan's heart melted looking at her

Shri: what should we name it?

Riyan: Stella?

Shri: why?

Riyan: it reminds me of that one pink angry bird named Stella

Shri: Stella it is then

Both of them smiled at each other and for a moment kept stareing at each other , none of them was breaking the eye contact,that was until shri's phone started ringing

Shri:are mere manager ka call h ek min

Shri picked up her phone and started talking , and soon she was done with the call

Shri: riyan I have to go

Riyan: right now?

Shri: yes , office me kuch urgent kaam pad gya hai so Jana padega

Riyan: okay then I'll drop you there

Shri: are koi ni riyan mai chali jaungi

Riyan: tum to chali jaoge but mujhe acha ni lagega tumko akele bhej k so I am gonna drop you and that's final okay?

Shri: acha thik h but tumko kuch important kaam to ni h ?

Riyan: practice starts at 9 am so abhi time h mere pass don't worry

Shri: acha thik hai, but car ?

Riyan: hmare staff me ek bhaiya hai unki car borrow kr lunga thodi der k lia

Shri: acha

Riyan: let's go then

Both of them headed outside and got in the car , as riyan was driving, Shri couldn't help but admire him , he was such a nice guy like she has never seen before, she was hoping he will find a girl who won't hurt him ever , but a thought of him with another girl made her feel a little uneasy, am I feeling jealous? She thought, nahi yaar probably mood swings honge , and she brushed her thoughts away , soon they reached her office

Riyan: we're here, take care hn Shri , or kuch b zarurat hogi to merko bta dena please

Shri: ok riyan , drive safe

Riyan: see you soon Shri

Shri: see you ....
