Anika : We have met twice but never got a chance to introduce ourselves. Should we do that now ?

Anurag  ( in mind ) : Twice ?

Anurag  glared at Shivaye  which he successfully ignored.
Shivaye  : I am…
Anurag  ( interrupted ) : I am Anurag  Singh Oberoi.
Anika ( deep in thoughts ) : Are you the Vice President of the company ?
Anurag  : Yup ! You are correct.
Anika : I am Anika. Nice to meet you. I have heard a lot about you.
Anurag  ( curiously ) : Like what ?
Anika ( sheepishly ) : You are notorious but quite intelligent.

Anurag laughed at it along with Anika. He saw her looking at Shivaye  so he decided to take the matter in his hands.
Anurag : He is Shivaye . He also works in this company. He is a normal worker like you.

Shivaye  ( in mind ) : What ?! This guy is so unbelievable. For god sake , I am the President of the company.

Anika looked at Shivaye  and gave him a pleasant smile.
Anika : Nice to meet you Shivaye . I look forward to working with you.
Anika ( in mind ) : I thought he was rich because he was driving an expensive car. Maybe I judged too early. What if that was just rented ? 

Shivaye  nodded and smiled in return. Their "little" moment was again interrupted by Anurag .
Anurag  : What else do they say about me in the company ?
Anika : Not much , but they do talk a lot about the President of the Company. Seems like he is the real catch.
Anurag  ( dramatically ) : Do you mean that I am not an important figure of the company ?
Anika : I didn't mean that Mister Anurag . Yes , a lots of efforts and hard work are required in this field. You are quite hard working.
Shivaye  ( in mind ) : Hard work ? He doesn't even know how to spell it correctly.

Anurag  be like : HARD WROK ! Lol.

AT THE RESTAURANT

Anika : You both are free to order anything. The treat is on me.
Shivaye : I just want a cup of coffee. 
Anurag ( highly focused on the menu ) : Do they sell protein shake here ? 
Anika : I will have each of everything on the menu. 

Shivaye and Anurag looked at her in shock. Their eyes went wide and mouths hanged open.
Anurag : You eat a lot.
Shivaye : Anurag , thats rude. Don't mind him Anika. 
Anika ( sheepishly ) : Thats okay. I do have a big appetite.
Shivaye : Will you be able to eat everything ?
Anika : Of course. I had a long day today so I am extremely tired. I deserve a big feast right now.
Anurag ( suddenly ) : Oh ! Its my cheat day today. I don't need to hold back my temptations.
Anika ( smiled ) : You should never resist your temptation towards food.
Anurag : Yes , your highness ! You are right.

Anurag bowed down in respect towards Anika , playfully.

Anika : Let's order quickly. I am damn hungry.
Anurag : I would like to have the family meal combo. It includes variety of appetizers and the main dish looks scrumptious. Also , they will serve you chocolate pudding for free. It's a good deal.
Anika : Okay. Let's order now.

Anurag ( in mind ) : I think this is the right time to ask her about it. 

Anurag : Anika , have you ever fallen in love ?
Anika ( mouth full ) : I don't really remember.
Anurag : What do you mean by that ?
Anika : I met with a major accident in the past which caused me amnesia. So , I don't remember a lot of things which are related to my past. 

Shivaye was shocked hearing about it so he continued asking her queries regarding her condition.

Anurag ( in mind ) : It's no use asking her. She doesn't remember anything.
