Chapter 7
(just a heads up I haven't really liked the past couple chapters i've wrote but again just bare w me i'll make it work out somewhow😉)
"WHY WON'T YOU GODDAMN SAY ANYTHING?! AM I TALKING TO A FUCKING BRICK WALL??" She yelled.
I didn't actually know how to reply to her snappy voice. "Okay baba chill... yes thank you for confirming you were that same girl from earlier aha, but how are you?" I thought asking a simple question as to how she is wouldn't hurt anyone.
"Why the hell are you asking me how I am?" She spoke and slowly backed away from me. I heard her tone of voice change and her body language appeared more hesitant and confused. I wondered, when was the last time someone has asked her that question?
"Nahi matlab... you blacked out on me earlier, of course it's my responsibility to check if you're okay." I replied with a more welcoming tone, trying to make her more comfortable.
"yeah... I'm fine." Her tone was blunt, she replied with a sigh whilst fidgeting back onto her chair, missing the seat a couple times. I won't take that as an answer, I'm determined to at least have a genuine conversation with her... even though it won't be genuine because she's under the influence.
"Vaisai... aap AZ INDUSTRIES mein kya kar rahe thi, applying for a job?" I tried to sound as inquisitive as possible, so she knows I'm intrigued to know about her.
"uh yeah i was, kyu?" Her voice was getting more and more tired sounding, like it was detached from the rest of her. I hope she don't order another drink, that would be her 7th round. "Arey what a coincidence! so was i!" I tried to lift the mood as best as i could, maybe I could see a different side of her. "Did you get accepted??"
"... OH YES I DID AND THATS WHY IM HERE BECAUSE IM CELEBRATING BECAUSE I ACTUALLY GOT A JOB" she bursted out like a firework. It honestly made me jump, but her face started to light up more.
"SAACHI?! That's so cool so did I!! Also, tumhaara naam kya hai?" Maybe I could try to partner up with her tomorrow so I can talk to her more and eventually help her.
I noticed her hesitate before speaking her name "A-Avni. Avni Ayesha. And you are?" Avni Ayesha. It sounds like a dove flying through the clouds; It flowed nicely. 'case number 022 , Avni Ayesha." I made a mental note of it. " My name is Neil. Neil Khanna." I replied with a smile.
The time read 12:38AM, and I noticed Avni was struggling to sit properly, she just kept on leaning her weight in one direction and then falling. "Hey, how are you getting home? We have to get to the meeting at 12PM tomorrow." I asked her concerned, and neither was I sure how much of this she was going to remember by tomorrow.
"Huh... oh what does that matter to you." She replied to me deliriously.
"As I am about to leave I thought i'd check that you're able to get home safely... considering how much you drank." I tried to keep a friendly tone on my voice but also slightly firm.
"OH NO... Maa can't see me like this..." she blurted out in a daze. She didn't seem fazed by what she was saying, I think she might be blackout drunk right now.
...Now what do I do?
