Heartbeat level has risen to max. She was so afraid. But still somehow she went to the door and his P.A directed her to come in.
She went in.

As if she was standing in front of the fear of her life.

P.A. : please sit down.

Preeta took her sit, but staring in eyes of front man only.

Boss : (smilingly) So...welcome Miss. W.. sorry, Preeta Arora. I am Karan luthra, owner of A.K. industries. (smirks)

He forwarded his hands, she somehow shakes with his.

Preeta : (in mind) Oh..to yeh Mr. Whoever mujhe judge Kar Raha tha jabhi, khadoos, adiyal, badtameez, Meri kismat ko Meri khushi dekhi nahi jaati (made cry baby face) no..no.. Preeta, you have to be confident. Aisa soch tu ise jaanti hi nahi, ha Mai nahi jaanti is Mr. Whoever ko.

She pretend herself to be enough confident, with an assuring smile on her face.

Karan : Miss. Can I have your C.V.S. please.

Preeta : sure sir.

She handed him her C.V.S. Karan smirked seeing her. But she ignored it, and pretend as if nothing is happening. But deep inside she only knews, how she is tolerating him.

Karan : So you have done computer mastering.

Preeta : yes.

Karan : any special reason behind it, means any aim to become something or what. Are you determined towards your future.

Preeta : no sir, not any aim for my future, but I can surely aim towards my works, which is being handed to me.

Karan : hmm... So what brings you here to work. Any special quality of our company.

Preeta : that how can I say sir ? I haven't still worked here. And my aim of working bring me here.

Karan : (in mind) hmm..ladki to kaafi determine and impressive hai, bhale hi work me itna accha presentation na ho, but jitna bhi kiya hai aaj tak, wo literally kaabil e taarif hai. (Seeing her C.V.S.)

Karan : ohh I see.. accha Miss. Preeta, do you have any boyfriend ?

Preeta widened her eyes listening it. She coughed a bit.

Preeta : Sorry sir.

Karan : (he realized his words) oh.. I meant to say, means you know, the criteria of mingle persons, then they are not able to concentrate on works, then it affects the companies etc. That's why I asked.

Preeta : no sir, not such problems of mine.

Preeta then smiled a bit listening his lame excuse. She was wondering how this man is trying hard to divert her attention. Then she stopped smiling and concentrate again.

Karan : Accha Miss.. so you before use to work for Singhania group of companies. Right ?

Preeta : (a bit scared) right sir.

Karan : So now, I want to know the actual reason for your resignation.

Her face fell down listening it. She was only managing herself to answer his questions.

Preeta : actually sir... (Looking at him) Mr. Singhania tried many times...to as.. assault me. And after, complaining..to police, he demoted me. So...I decided to leave. But he, written fake negative reviews in my C.V.S as revenge on me. So.. that I can't get the job from anyone.

Karan fist his hand in ager, unknown to her.

Karan : oh.. to how many times you got rejected for jobs through different companies.

Preeta : (looking down) more than 7-8, (slowly) so many times.

Karan : See..miss. I was just asking, it's none of my business, where were you working, what you was doing, the I only thing I want is your sincere work.

Preeta nods.

Like this only, their interview goes on, by twisted questions of karan's and impressive answers of Preeta's. And their session comes to end.

Karan : finally miss Preeta, your questions and interviews got over. And any questions ??

Preeta : yes sir..

Karan : go on.

Preeta : sir, is there anything in my C V.S. that worries you ?

Karan : (thinking) yes.... I found your performances are great, but sometimes you are unable to complete your some works, which I would like you to prefer to improve.

Preeta : ok sir... Thank you !

Door opening sound can be heard by both. Both look up to see asmina.

Karan : hey sweetheart what's up ?

Preeta widened her eyes a bit, unnoticed to both of them.

Asmina : all fine...but I think I am disturbing you both..

Karan handed Preeta her C.V.S.

Karan : no no bilkul nahi, aap aao na.

Preeta : (in mind) hayee, dekho to bilkul bhi sharam nahi hai. Pehle to apne interviewer ke samne aise baat, fir aap-janaab. Khair chod mujhe kya, koi bhi ho sakti hai wo.

Asmina : accha wo sab to thik hai, lekin tum apna interview session kab Tak wind karoge ?

Karan : abhi, only in five minutes.

Asmina : nahi nahi, waisa nahi, overall jab koi select ho jaayega tab tak. Kab karoge ?

Karan : ha waise hi. Ho gayi hai yeh select. Wind Kar dunga five minutes me.

Preeta : (looking at him surprisingly) sir, that means I am selected for Assistant.

Karan : (sarcastically) No miss. Tumhe Maine Meri office ki saaf safai ke liye select Kiya hai.

Preeta narrowed her eyes at him.

Preeta : aapne mujhe kaha hi nahi, to mujhe kaise pata chalega Mai assistant ke liye select Hui hu, ya saaf-safai ke liye.

Karan can't able to control his smile.

Karan : leave it.

Preeta : (shocked) what ? Abhi abhi just job dekar, aap leave me liye keh rahe ho sir.

Karan : (huffed) leave..... that.... topic...... I .....said.... Miss,. Whatever.

Preeta rolled her eyes, while asmina was giggling unknown to them.

Karan : I should leave only. (To asmina) accha aapko kuch kaam tha.

Asmina : ha wo presentation ready karni hai, you forgot or what ?

Karan : oh ...yaa. I remembered, ok I am coming.

Karan : (to preeta) And aap select ho gai hai Miss. Arora. Congratulations.

Stressing on each word, he greet her. She smiled a bit

Preeta : Thank you sir ! Should I leave now ?

Karan : Will be a great pleasure.

Preeta made an annoyed face, and went from there. Asmina saw her.

Asmina : (in mind) I don't know why, but yeh ladki bohot acchi lagi. Kuch to special hoga isme, jo Karan ne itni jaldi hire Kar liya ise, warna interviews on hoge, to ek mahine Tak ye kise bhi select hi nahi karta. Aur ab do hi din hue hai.

Karan snapped his fingers in front of her. She came back to her sense.

Asmina : ha Kya hua hai ?

Karan : kaha khoye hue ho aap. Itni gehraai se kuch soch rahe ho.

Asmina : nahi..kuch nahi soch Rahi. Waise Karan, ek baat batana, yeh ladki Jo thi, use select Kyu Kiya (Karan looked at her) Mera Matlab kis qualities le, Kya accha laga tumhe usme.

"Hame duniya Jo bhi kahegi wo sab accept nahi karna chaahiye. Bhale hi wo thoda gusse waala hoga, but zaroori nahi wo khadoos ho. Har insaan ki life me problems bohot hoti hai, aur wo use kaise affect karti hai yeh kisi ko nahi pata hota.

"Isiliye kisi ko judge karna nahi chaahiye, Bina uski condition ko jaane."

Karan smiles.

Karan : (smiling) aisa kuch accha laga Jo pehle kabhi kisi me accha nahi laga. Isiliye rakh liya itni jaldi use.

Karan went out from cabin.

Asmina : (smiles) kuch accha laga. Ohh lagta hai mere angry young bro ka Dil kisi ne chura liya hai. Wow...that would be just amazing.

Outside the cabin, he stood up closing the door.

Karan smirked remembering something.

Precap : first day at office.
