Ranbir was quite angry that he hadn't known when the female left but was a lot calmer and considerate because Aryan convinced him, something Prachi didn't understand the need for, if he was mad, then he could be mad, his opinion wasn't much to her, or that's what she always convinced herself was the truth

Prachi stared outside the window while sipping her coffee, she had loved her work but after working for hours she could feel the exhaustion catching up to her, the bittersweet taste acted like magic into her constantly, but today it tasted even better leaving behind a trail of calm warmth that healed every burn inside of her

She was in her office and had designed another three dresses which she had to redesign due to some similarities they had found in the dresses of their rival companies, she hadn't realised but once she landed in the city, she had no place to work at, and so, she had spent a week decorating the office and furnishing it properly until it was finally ready for her to work at, she had been extremely angry at her secretary for the misplacement however being with Gaurav, he prevented her from lashing out

She also had to take interviews and assign someone her work once she left, it had been a long time since she had arrived and she often wondered what Ranbir would be doing, she had grown used to being with him, although the two barely spent time, the simple absence sometimes unnerved her a little too much, another addition to something she didn't like about herself

"Is everything done?" Gaurav came in holding the last dress which she had asked him to get and she nodded slightly before getting off the window sill, keeping her mug aside as she arranged all the dresses properly after altering the size of the dress for the models to feel comfortable

"Yes, and are the models ready, I don't want any issues tomorrow, seventeen of them" Prachi asked and he nodded, apart from work Prachi had grown accustomed to Gaurav as well, he was always around and helping her with the minimal things he could, it was nice having a friend with her

"Ok, then I've done everything you had asked, now let's hope the best for tomorrow" he said and she nodded

"Yup" she muttered and left the room after he did, receiving her mother's call

Ranbir had busied himself with work, but apart from the casual running into Tara, nothing was disturbing in his life, he often felt lonely at the house without having any silly arguments but the silence somehow made up for it

It had been hard to adjust after Prachi had left since he had now to do all the work instead of half of it, he had to deal with new clients and increase the production rate due to the high demand for products and had to work a lot more than usual which made things worse

He was used to asking Prachi for help when he needed it, although she always mocked him and annoyed him before she could ever help him she was still a great help and was amazing at business, after living with someone, who couldn't get attached at all. Ranbir didn't disagree, the female was a very sweet human being with her own flaws that she knew how to handle

"Sir" Tara smiled at him in the most appealing way possible, making sure to bend down a little showing her cleavage as her collar button stayed open, her overly short skirt sticking tightly around her body, Ranibr didn't mind, he had never objected someone's clothes before, unless they wore a bikini at the office that is

"Yes?" he asked and she just smiled more

"I had to give you this file" she said, stepping ahead grabbing a hold of his hand and handing him the file, flashing her teeth, he didn't mind her, although her acts were quite irritating in a way he had never been irritated

He often compared her with Prachi, how even though Prachi wore revealing clothes, she never intentionally had to make people notice her and how formal and serious she was about her work
