Chapter 21
This Awesome cover has been made by Kumud03. Thank you so much dear for taking out time and making it for me.
I have been sitting on one spot only from the past twenty minutes. I tried every time to get up and leave for work but couldn't pull myself to. It's been five days since I had fought with him and from then, I haven't seen him once also.
Though he comes to office everyday but there's not a bit of interaction also with him. Infact I didn't saw him once also in the last five days. I only heard from my co workers about him and his works.
I sighed and was about to get up when my cell suddenly went off.
It was Mr.Khan's call. His call brought a big smile on my face and I picked up his call immediately.
"Assalamualaikum" I said.
"Walekumasalam, how are you my child??" He asked. Ohh...how much I missed him and his caring nature.
"Allahamdulilah and you?" I asked.
"Allahamdulilah. You must be on your way to work?"
"Nope, I'm still in the house"
"Why? Last time I checked, I got to know that your new boss doesn't like late comers."
"Yes, it is true....but today I just can't put myself to get up and leave for work."
"Is everything alright my child?"
"Yeah, everything's fine" I lied. The last thing I want is to worry him.
"So what's new? Tell me everything, which I might be missing about the office."
"You're missing nothing only the office and all of us are missing you. Come back soon, Sir" I said
"I will Hoori, I will. So does that Aariz treat you better or is he still the same?"
"He's still the same. Actually he has a mental problem, and I doubt that any doctors or mental hospital will take him in and diagnose him." I said
"Someone's in a bad mood"
"He always makes me hyper"
"But he's your mentor"
"No, you are my mentor." I pouted
"I'm highly obliged" he said and I laughed. "On a serious note what exactly happened between you both this time?"
"From where to start...seriously, I also don't know what is happening these days. When we'll meet then I'm gonna tell you everything but for now all I can say is, I fought with him and he kept on saying that it's not his fault. And now I don't know, what to do?" I sighed.
"Hmm...do you really think that it was his fault?" He asked.
"Yes and No, because I saw it with my own eyes"
"And how can you be so sure that whatever you've seen is the truth only...it may or may not be"
"You're right" I again sighed.
"So cheer up my girl and start all over again. Go and clarify everything with him"
"I will"
"You should get going now and if I'm not wrong you're already half an hour late" he said and I stood up. I didn't meant to be this late....damn!! Now he'll be more angry.
"Okay, I should run now, If I want my job. Assalamualaikum"
"Hahahahahaha... Walekumasalam" he replied and we ended the call.
Within twenty minutes, I reached office. Just as I was about to enter, I saw him getting out of his car. My steps froze and my gaze locked at him. He saw me but I couldn't see his eyes because he was wearing shades.
He didn't even gave me a glance also as far as I know and just like that went inside the office. I definitely have to talk to him. Ignoring everything I went inside and just like always I dig myself into work.
After completing my work, it was almost lunch time, I decided to go to his cabin. When I reached his cabin, Aahil was coming out of his cabin.
"Hey" he said.
"Hi...long time" I said
"Yeah..was busy. How are you?"
"I'm good and you?"
"Same same...so how's work going?"
"Usual...Yours?"
"Hectic!!"
"Is he in there?" I asked
"Yes, he is"
"Busy?"
"Nope, he was sitting and going through his cell" he said.
"Ohh okay...I should get going. Bye." I said
"Yeah sure, Bye." He said and went away. Taking deep breaths, I knocked.
"Come in".
"Good afternoon" I said as I went in. He only nodded.
"I hope you were not busy" I said softly.
"If I'm not wrong, you don't have any reason to come in my cabin today" he blankly said and stretched his legs under the table. Today he was wearing a black suit with white button down shirt and a navy blue tie.
His hair was roughly combed back.
"I wanted to say something"
"But I don't want to hear anything"
"Why are you being so tough on me? What is my fault? What I saw that day, I said to you...if you would have been in my place, you would have also done the same thing." I said
"If I would have been in your place, I would have used my mind before marching inside anyone's place!!" He sneered.
"Oh! So you are angry because I invaded your privacy with that girl. But let me tell you when I was marching inside, she was coming out of the house. And you were alone that time" I hissed.
"Why are you bringing Mayera now??" He said. Oh, so her name is Mayera. Nice name...I thought.
"Because I disturbed your 'privacy'" I said quoting with my hands.
"Privacy doesn't mean that it has to be with two people only."
"Ofcourse it doesn't... but the way you said, showed something else only!!"
"Listen, whatever you're reason maybe to come here. I'm done with that topic!!" He said and rocked his chair back to stand up.
"I don't understand why you don't want to listen to me properly? I came here today to apologize to you for my behavior...I know, I did over reacted but that time I wasn't thinking straight"
"Right now also you're doing the same thing" he said raising my temper.
"What the hell is your problem?? Here, I'm trying to apologize, and you're just showing your attitude" I raised my voice a bit.
"Don't you dare raise your voice" and with one swift movement, I was pressed against his chest and unknowingly my hand touched his chest, making me gasp as I jumped back a little.
"Miss.Ahmed, I think you can leave now." He said.
"No matter how much you deny, but I know that you're the answer to my every question" I said.
"Excuse me Sir, You called me?" Miss.Laila decided to show herself.
"Yes, please come in" he said. "Miss.Ahmed, if you're done then can you leave. I have something important to discuss with her in private" he said blankly staring at me.
"Sure Sir, you have all the privacy in the world to discuss!!" I sweetly said.
"Miss.Ahmed since you were fifty minutes late today, you won't get your salary in the first two weeks." He said.
"Why do you even bother to pay me as it is I'm working more than I was told to under you and that too in my normal salary only. So now the salary doesn't really matter to me because it's utterly useless to expect anything good especially when your the temporary boss of this firm." I smiled and left.
