Falling in love is very real, but I used to shake my head when people talked about soul mates, poor deluded individuals grasping at some supernatural ideal not intended for mortals but sounded pretty in a poetry book. Then, we met, and everything changed, the cynic has become the converted, the sceptic, an ardent zealot. - E. A. Bucchlaneri

Aaradhana POV

The sun spreads beautiful yellow-orange removing the darkness from the sky. I just need someone who could be a sun to my life, but i cant expect sun in my life. I was enjoying sunrise in my balcony, only one thing is missing, a cup of coffee. The worst part is, we don't have coffee maker in this house. How great would've been, if Koushik was able to cook. Okay, let me not depend upon Koushik, Aaru, lets learn to make coffee my subconscious mind advised me. I took my phone, opened youtube and started to tutor myself from youtube.

'yes! I made it' i was in euphoria. I inhaled the aroma, that came from my coffee. It didn't smell so great, but it was awesome as for first attempt. I poured it to a large size mug and went to my room to enjoy the sun. Its still 6. I didn't sleep last night, having all those disgusting nightmares, i couldn't close my eyes. I was waiting for the sun from 2. I love sun. Once, i wished to be a sun to my loved ones, to remove their darkness but life has changed, now i wish to get a sun in my life. I sipped my hot coffee.

Now its 6.45, time to get changed for my new destination. I went to bathroom and took my bath and started to get ready. I dressed myself in white pencil skirt and light pink chifforn shirt. I started digging my face in foundation, drew my eyes like a fish and painted my lips in pink. I packed my bag with necessary documents and makeup kit. Atlast i wore my heels and ran out of my room. Its getting late. I have to catch the bus around 7.30, its 7.15 now. I thought of getting ride from Koushik but he cleared mentioned not to share, with no option i ran down to the hallway. I halted in front of Koushik room, it was still locked, it means he is getting ready inside or not yet waken up. I turned to my left and saw kitchen, suddenly i felt to make coffee for him. Without wasting anytime, i started preparing coffee for him, i have never ever cooked for someone in my life. When i was a teenager, i wanted to make my first dish to my boyfriend, i never thought, time could change like this drastically. I poured to a big yellow mug and stuck my stick note in it.

Good Morning!

Its edible

Heat it if it gets cold

See you

~Aaru

I smiled. I checked my watch its 7.25, only 5min more. I flewed from house and landed in bus stop. I breathed out at a irregular speed. I have never ran like this in my entire life. My throat became dry. I looked at the road, no sign of bus. I saw a small store nearby bus stop. I went to him "Anna (Bro), when will the bus to OMR arrive?" i asked him breathing out heavily. He looked at the clock, oh shit! "Bus left few minutes before" he told politely. "Anna, when is the next bus?" i asked him. "After 8"

Shit! Shit! Shit! Its getting worse, on my first day itself. I have to be there in my office at 8. I stopped an auto rickshaw, he dropped me in five minutes. I entered the office, i turned around to find Ansh, he is the only person i know. I didnt find him. I turned to receptionist side and greeted her. She looked very beautiful at the same time rude. I approached her " Hello, im Mrs. Aaradhana Bhatt, new PA for CEO" i handed over my appointment order. She gave me disgusting look and hardly smiled at me. I started feeling bad vibes "Welcome" she welcomed me with attitude i hate her she never told her name. That nameless receptionist called someone. "Aaradhana, she will give you a brief introduction" she showed me a girl. She looked pretty with a beautiful smile, she was spreading positive vibes. She gave me a handshake "I'm Ms. Kareena Sharma, i will you a tour to this company" i reflected the smile she gave "Thank you, Im Mrs. Aaradhana Bhatt, you can call me Aaradhana or Aaru, im basically from Mumbai, shifted to Chennai with my husband Mr.-" i immediately cut off, i closed my mouth with my palm, i recalled the condition Koushik told, not to tell anybody about our marriage and i continued "sorry, i just blabber a lot" Kareena gave me a confused look and shrugged her shoulder.

Kareena told me about all the task that i must do regularly. I was quite simple task like, should give coffee to my boss whenever he needed, should inform him about his meetings and schedules, to cross check all the files that must be taken to the meeting and something like that.

"I'll be there at the entrance of the floor, you can contact me whenever you needed help...and im working here for CAO Mr. Ansh Chopra" she smiled at me. "Thanks Kareena. I'll get to you when i have doubt" she smiled at me. She surely smiles a lot which even as a girl i like it "Lets meet for lunch then" i shook my head and she left for her cabin.

Now the clock struck 8..30. All started to greet someone. I looked to the side, Its my boss, i got up from my seat and greeted him "Good Morning", he nodded his head and never glanced to my side and went to his room. Rude Guy. All the girls in that floor started to droll for him. Yes, they dont know he got married, to them he is still bachelor.

My train of thoughts was disturbed by telephone, infront of me. I received the call "Hello" silence for about few seconds "meet me now" and the call ended, i hurried to his room. "Excuse me sir" i knocked the door, no sound, i opened the door and went in. HE was there sitting in his chair in front of his laptop. He looked at me "so your ready to work" i nodded "remember my terms and condition" i shook my head "yes sir" i replied firmly.

"Impressive" he told "okay bring me my coffee" i left from his room. I went to cafeteria, to get his cupporcino, i added heart shape cream to it. I knocked his door and entered to his room. I was walking carefully not to spill coffee. He was seriously talking with someone. I placethe coffee in front of him. He looked at the coffee while talking at the phone. He took the spoon from the saucer and mixed the coffee, he did to remove that heart from it. I felt like laughing at his childish behavior. He ended the call and glared at me. "Do i have appointment now, Mrs. Bhatt?" i have no idea what was he talking about. "I'll check and tell you sir" i turned to walk out "you should've done before not now" he barked at me "Mr. Thakur is on the way for the meeting" so what? I looked at him confusingly "What's the problem now? If he comes we can meet him and moreover i just now joined to this post, i dont know about your meeting" i reasoned out but he was fuming with anger "Dont be irresponsible Aaradhana" he shouted at top of his voice. He collected all the files from the table and gave to me "Arrange the tables in the conference hall" he took his mobile from his pocket and turned to exit "Hello Ansh" he was calling him.

I went to Kareena cabin "Kareena where's conference hall?" she looked very puzzled, she composed herself "go the 12th floor, walk straight turn to right, its in the corner of left" i thanked her and walked to the direction as she told. I went inside and was shocked to see group of people. Clients have already arrived. I never thought this job is.....i dont even have time to think what kind of difficulty level this job lays.

I placed all the files on the table in front. I turned to see Mr. Thakur and was shocked. I was shocked is an understatement. I never thought Mr. Thakur is Mr. Arun Thakur. He was just reflecting my emotion. He was also shocked like me. I'm doomed.

Arun is the same person who eloped from my marriage.
