Karan reached his office. He tiptoed inside his cabin like a thief.

Karan(in mind) : Apne hi office m kse choro kii tarah ghusna pd rha h... Ek uss musibat ko innocent proof krne ke liye..

Karan saw the black figure working on laptop.

Karan hit the head from back. She shouted.

Karan was shocked to see Preeta there.

Preeta(rubbing her head) : Chomu akal vakal kaha bech aaye ho... Mujh jaise masoom insan ko piche se maarte ho... Sharam nhi aati..

Karan: Toh tum hi ho... Cheater..

Preeta(angry) : Jis word ka mtlb na pta ho na usse use nhi krte h... Ab mujhe apna kaam krne do....aur tum vohi mann mann m mujhe koso.. Lekin don't u dare call me a cheater.

She continued her work. Karan widened his eyes..

Karan: You are hacking into my system.

Preeta started laughing.

Preeta: Mujhe toh pta hi nhi tha... Thank u btane ke liye..

Karan: Tumhe pta bhi h ye illegal h..

Preeta: Toh tumhe main aisi ldki lgti ho jo koi illegal kaam nhi kregi...

Preeta: Aur dusri baat... Tum yahi khade ho...tumhari permission k baad ye illegal nhi rh jaata..

Karan: Par maine tumhe permission kb di...

Preeta: Kitna bolte ho tum... Meri hi sangati ka asar h... Zra chup kro.. Mujhe kaam krne do..

Karan: Kya tum mujhe bta skti ho... Tum exactly kr kya rhi ho babydoll..

Preeta(hurt) : Babydoll...

A lone tear escaped her eye, she quickly wiped it off.

Preeta(stern) : Main uss IP address ki location aur ID nikal rhi hu jisse data leak hua h...

Karan: Oh..

Karan(in mind) : Matlab preeta ne yeh sb nhi kiya... Aur maine uski itni insult kii...

Preeta: Chomu coffee lao..

Karan's trance of thoughts broke.

Karan: What...

Preeta: I...... WANT...... A...... COFFEE

Karan: Tum apne boss ko order nhi de skti..

Preeta: Vo boss jiski reputation mere ek click p depend krti h...

Karan was hurt.. Preeta noticed..

Preeta pulled his cheeks.

Preeta: Main toh mere chomu ko bol rhi thi...par chlo..

Karan made faces and went to bring a coffee.

Karan(preparing coffee) : Kitni irritating h yeh ldki... Hadd h... Chl babydoll k chomu... Coffee leke jaa..

He gave coffee to Preeta. Preeta took a sip.

Preeta(smiling) : What a coffee... I can marry someone just to have it everyday..

Karan(shocked): What..

Preeta realised.

Preeta: Sorry... Just kidding..

After sometime,

Preeta: Preeta Arora koi jawaab nhi h tumhara... U re great..

Karan: Muh miyaan mithoo... Batao kya pta chla..

Preeta: Mere saath rh rhke kahawato p pakad toh dekho chomu tumhari... Well done Preeta Arora.. Once again..

Karan(extra sweetly) : Batayiye

Preeta: It was Monisha... That bloody bitch.. I won't spare her.

Karan: Babydoll Language..

Preeta: Sorry..

She used her puppy face and as usual, it worked in melting Karan.

Karan: Monisha ne yeh sahi nhi kiya... Main usse baat kroga..

Preeta(super shocked) : Chomu common sense ki shortage toh thi hi... Tum pagal bhi hogye... Hayo rabba..

Karan: What..

Preeta: Ek toh tum iss what ko apne naam p register kralo... Main kuch hi bolu... Bas ek what nikalta h tumhara..

Karan frowned.

Preeta: Kya kaha tumne...Main monisha se baat kroga... Mtlb tumne mujh pr kitna chillaya... Kya kya nhi bol dia aur usse tum sirf baat kroge... Are u serious, bajarbattu?

Preeta's phone started ringing. It was Shrishti's call. She picked it up.

Preeta(on call) : nhi nhi... Don't worry... I am coming...

Preeta: Karan I need to go..

She was going but Karan held her hand.

Karan: I am sorry babydoll... Mujhe tum pr aise chillana nhi chahiye tha... Mne tumhari itni insult kri... I am really very sorry... Apne chomu ko maaf nhi krogi...

Preeta just smiled.

Preeta: Its okay but I need to go now..

Karan: main drop krdo...

Preeta: Nhi main apni car leke aayi hu

Karan: Ok..

Preeta: Mera haath chodonge... Tbhi jaungi...

Karan realised that he was still holding her hand.

Karan: I am sorry..

She left to her apartment. Shrishti confronted her as soon as she entered.

Shrishti: Jaha tk main tujhe jaanti hu... Tu bilkul bhi uss insan ki madad nhi krti jisne tujhe cheater kha ho... Phir Karan..

Preeta: Bas main nhi chahti thi kii usski reputation gire..

Shrishti: Par kyu....

Preeta: Pata nhi...

Shrishti: Tu maan na maan, tujhe uski fikr toh h...

Preeta: It was just a favour..

Karan was leaving when he saw her phone on desk.

Karan: Babydoll ne mere liye itna kuch kiya... Main uska phone toh vaapis kr hi skta hu..

He started driving when Preeta's phone started ringing.

He ignored as it is not good to pick anybody's else calls but he was really annoyed when it was ringing for the fourth time.

Karan picked it up.

Caller: Preeta tu badal gyi h... Ab tu mujhse utna pyaar nhi krti h...

Karan: Hello, who's this?

Caller: Aap kon aur meri preeta kaha h... Kahi tumne uska kidnap..

Karan(in mind) : Meri babydoll ko apni Preeta bata rha h... Katl na krdo isska phone m ghuske... Hain? Karan toh aur katl.... Uss psycho ka hi asar h..

Karan: Nhi vo bas apna phone bhul gyi h..

Caller: Ok..

Karan drove to her apartment.

He rang the door bell.

Shrishti: Main dekhti hu..

Preeta: Isse toh main dekhti hu... Knife pass kr..

Preeta holding the knife🔪 moved towards the gate. She opened and was about to stab Karan when he screamed.

Preeta: Chomu... Tum yaha..

Karan: Psycho... Tum serial killer ho kya.. Jb dekho murder krne ki planning krti ho... Dhamkiyaan deti ho aur aaj toh mera katl-e-aam tumne kr hi diya tha..

Shrishti: Arre Karan tum...

She hit Preeta's head lightly.

Shrishti: Andar toh bula le..

Preeta: Aao chomu..

Karan: Tum sb ka issi tarah swagat krti ho..

Preeta: Nhi... Par aadhi raat ko aane walo ke liye special treatment.

Karan: Acha... Ye lo tumhara phone..

Karan handed over her phone.

Karan(irritated) : Tumhare boyfriend ka call aaya tha..

Shrishti(shocked) : Preeta tera boyfriend h...

Preeta: Mujhe bhi ye piece of information aaj hi mili h...

She checked her phone and smiled seeing Ritik's name.

Preeta: Ritik tha...

Karan(curious) : Mtlb tumhara koi boyfriend nhi h...

Preeta(confused) : Nhi h

Karan went out smilingly.

Karan: See u tomorrow my best friend..

Preeta: Ok best friend..

Shrishti(jealous) : Toh main kon hu..

Preeta: Chudail... Ab so jaa..

Shrishti : Dost dost na rha...

All slept having smiles on their faces.

Precap
