Preeti's POV~

I was busy with my mountain of work when my phone beeped. I was in no mood to check who was it so I ignored.

Why the hell my boss's so stubborn. Ughh... I'm fucking tired of reworking on the same thing hundred times.

My phone beeped again, and again.
Who has a death wish today!!
If I'm not responding can't they just stop.

Annoyed I unlocked my phone with a frown which automatically turned into a smile seeing whose message it was.

Hey
Thanks alot.
I feel better after irritating your brother today.

God Akhil. Spare him please.

No, nope. Not until I'm done with my revenge.

Hey I think you weren't holding any grudges against him right?

Yes I'm not.
But that doesn't means he slipped.

I feel bad for my brother😒. Such a Khadoos you are🙄.

I know 😉.
How's work today?

Hectic!! Too much on board.

Chill. Have a coffee and then continue. Don't overwork yourself.

Hmm... Anyways byee. If my boss sees me busy on my phone I'm not going home before 7:00 I'm sure.

OK OK. Have a good day.

Same to you.

Grabbing myself a strong coffee I resumed my work. I looked at my watch after a while and realized it's lunch time already. Getting up from my seat I heard someone call my name."Preets" it was Saumya my colleague. She was on a leave since 3 weeks.

"Saumya, hey"

"Hi darling. How was office without me?"

"Peaceful!"

"Hey that's not fair" She said faking anger.

I giggled

"OK come on let's have lunch. I'm having lot's of work left still." I said pointing towards the cafeteria.

"OK babes come on."

While we were going towards the cafeteria she kept glancing at me.

"Spit" I knew she had something to ask.

"Who's he?"

"Huh?"

"Your crush, boyfriend, 'just friends' whatsoever. Who's he?"

"Who told you that? There's no one like that."

"Uh-huh. Then why were you smiling like a fool while typing something on the phone a while ago." She asked raising an eyebrow.
