AUTHOR'S POV
Akhil was on his cabinet in his office. He was rechecking his presentation which he prepared early as he have to present it infront of the new clients.
Aditi was Okay but he wasn't in mood to let her alone. He was insisting but at the end every husband have to obey his wives!
"Mr. Malhotra, boss was calling you." Said one of his assistant.
Akhil stood up from his chair. Taking the laptop in his hands, he made his way towards the meeting room.
"Is everything done?" Akhil asked his Assistants for the last time before entering the meeting hall in which they nodded.
He smiled and entered inside the room.
"Is everything done, Akhil?"
Akhil nodded.
Akhil ran his hands through his head seeing Mr. Mehra there.
Mr. Mehra didn't look at him.
The meeting started. Team leaders one by one began to do their presentation.
It was Akhil's turn.
He stood up and connected his laptop to the projector.
He did everything perfectly. And was appreciated by his boss.
"Akhil, actually-" Said the boss once he sat on the chair infront of his boss.
Akhil interrupted him.
He took a deep breath.
"Sir, you know very well why he accepted this not so famous company's deal! And I even know that he asked you to fire me right now!"
"Akhil, I'm helpless! I'm sorry." Boss said and handed over his termination letter.
"Thank you for being genuine!" Akhil stood up taking the termination letter in his hands.
He came out of the office was puzzled not knowing what to do.
He ran his hands through his hair in frustration.
"I feel pity for you my non son-in-law!" Came the most irritating voice for him.
Akhil didn't said and began to walk further.
"It's just a beginning!" He yelled.
Akhil didn't turn back he continued walking towards his home.
He pressed the calling bell. It was around 4 in the evening.
Aditi opened the door. Seeing his dull face she didn't questioned him anything, she let him in.
Akhil sat on the couch and resting his back on it.
"Here.." Aditi handed over the glass full of water to him.
Akhil took the glass from her and kept it on the table.
He intertwined his fingers with her's.
"I'm fired from the Job!" He mumbled.
"I really don't know what to do now."
Akhil hugged her snuggling his face into her neck.
"We do something." She whispered ruffling his hairs.
Akhil pulled back from the hug and told her about Mr. Mehra.
"He did it on purpose?" Aditi asked.
Akhil nodded.
Aditi cupped his cheeks and brought his face near to her's.
"You, please don't be weak this soon. We have so much to pass. Is this only company? No right? There are so many! Please don't be upset with this small thing." She said.
He sighed then smiled. So did she.
"Can we go for a walk?" She asked.
"Sure!" Akhil said with a smile.
They both walking while hand in hand through the sand of the beach.
Some people are playing with waves. Some vendors are selling their products. Among all, Aditi and Akhil sat on the beach watching the sea, silently.
"He will definitely do something again when I apply for some other company." Akhil said breaking the silence between them.
Aditi's gazed moved from the sea to Akhil.
"I have to do something by myself." He said.
"What?!"
He shrugged.
"I don't know!!" He muttered enough for her to hear.
She neither didn't said anything nor he asked.
They sat silently there. Akhil was playing with the hem of her scarf.
"Hey!" They heard a voice from behind.
They both stood up dusting their clothes.
"Bhai.." Aditi smiled at Rishabh.
"What's up?" Rishabh asked.
"Sky!" Akhil scoffed looking upwards.
"Wow! But Akhi, this joke is out of trend you know!" Rishabh scoffed back.
Aditi giggled.
"Bhai, you here alone?" Aditi asked.
"Uhm no, I have a girlfriend." Rishabh said rubbing his neck.
"Who?" Aditi and Akhil asked together.
"Aditi?" A shocked female voice came.
They looked towards the owner of the voice.
She quickly hugged Aditi, smiling. So Aditi did smile.
"You are married?" She asked seeing her wearing the sindoor in her partion and mangalsutra in her neck.
"Hha!"
"You know her?" Rishabh asked his girlfriend confused.
"She's my Friend, Nithya!" Aditi said gazing at Akhil.
"You mean that friend?" Rishabh emphasized the word 'friend'.
Aditi nodded with a small smile.
"Who is your husband ?" Nithya asked.
"I'm her husband!" Akhil said wrapping his arms around her shoulder.
Nithya smiled at them.
"But how? I mean-" Nithya was cut off by Aditi
"Leave it, we will talk about it later. Is she your girlfriend?"
"Yeah! After my so many efforts! It's been a week she have accepted my proposal." Rishabh said.
"You were busy with this?!" Akhil looked at Rishabh with a smirk.
He sheepishly smiled.
