3. ANOTHER CHANCE

~~~~~~~~💙✨

Kaheen pe ho raatein

Kaheen pe savere

Ye awaargi hi chali saath mere

Thahar jaa thahar jaa

Ye kahti hai teri nazar...

Kya haal ho gya hai ye meraaa...

Aankhein meri har jagah

Dhundhe tujhe bewajah...

Ye mai hu ya koi aur hai

Meri tarah...

Kaise hua kaise hua

Tu itna jaroori kaise hua...

~~~~~~~~💙✨

The car stopped infront of a mansion and the guards opened the huge gates as they recognised her car.

She stepped out from the car when her bodyguard opened the door for her and took her purse followed by a box covered in yellow shiny wrapper from the backseat while she walked ahead.

She kept walking without taking off her shades untill her eyes got a view of the shiny rose gold name plate as a reflection of her hard work. Malhotra mansion written on it in bold calligraphy letters making her proud internally on her hardwork.

' Of course there is hard work in killing and threatening people. Scary woman ' Her subconscious mocked.

" Shut up !! I run a business " she said in slightly loud to her inner self.

" What happened ma'am ? " On of her bodyguard asked as she was loud.

" Um... Nothing "

She said and at the same time someone opened the door. She made her way inside while one guard came inside only to hand over her belongings to the house keeper without exchanging any word.

" Okay ma'am. I'll take my leave now "

The bodyguard said and bowed his head a little in respect while she just nodded.

" Vipin uncle Where are everyone ? " She asked the house keeper who was probably in his 40s.

" They already slept bitiya " He replied and she looked up at the wall clock hanging.

' nobody in your house keeps awake till 11 pm night '

She could hear her inner voice but ignored.

She lifts her legs towards the couch which was in the middle of the hall followed by 3 more of same sizes and a glass table kept in the middle of the couches.

She sat with a thud before keeping her phone on the table and rested her head back. She closed her eyes feeling the softness of the silk yet velvety couch.

Although her head was still aching but she cared less to wake up anyone and get a head massage. She regret not taking those pills shreyansh gave her but don't gonna accept it.

" Aakriti bitiya "

She opened her eyes when she heard the familiar voice and found a lady probably in her early 30s standing near her with a glass of water in her hands.

Aakriti took a few seconds to recognise her and she was Megha the new cook her nani called from her village.

" Aap soye nhi abhi tak ? "

( You didn't slept yet ? )

" Aapke aane ke baad sone hi waali thi "

( I was about to sleep after you came )

She replied forwarding the glass to her.

" Please sit. why are you standing ? "

Aakriti said shifting to a side making some needless space for her as there was more couches.

" Should I heat up the food ? " Megha asked and again stood up.

" I already had dinner with my clients "

She lied in order to not trouble her in the late night and up to that megha was 4 months pregnant so she didn't wanted her to work more than required.

Although she already asked megha for leave till her delivery but she denied saying that she needs money and for that she have to work. The Malhotras were ready to help her but she denied again saying she can't take the money for which she didn't work for.

" You should rest now I don't need anything "

Aakriti said and megha nodded with a smile and headed towards the room outside the mansion which was alloted to the house helpers.

Aakriti kept looking at her making sure she reach safely until she disappeared in the direction of her room outside.

Her stomach grumbled with hunger but she took a few sips of water instead as she was too lazy and tired to serve food herself.

Her phone pinged with a notification and she opened it boringly. As she looked at the screen her lips curved into a slight smirk.

' Times when the famous business tycoon Aakriti Malhotra acted rude and arrogant in public ' The headline said.

She was used to it. Being called by these names was a compliment for her. She opened the article and read further. Although she didn't wanted to waste her time but she was also a big fan of herself so how could she miss any comment on herself.

' Aakriti Malhotra is one of the famous and successful personality in the business world and she's also known for her cold attitude and bold nature.

In this article we'll focus on the time and places where she acted rude in public.

1. At the international airport... '

She rolled her eyes without reading further. It was really so uninteresting for her. The media was calling her arrogant just because she didn't answered their stupid questions. But did she cared ? Absolutely fukin not.

She still remember the media incident happened 2 days ago when she was returning from her business trip and she didn't even stepped out of her car and the reporters had already circled her without stopping asking their stupid questions making her more annoyed than already she was.

So basically her bodyguards pushed a few of them in order to make some space for her to walk. And the second thing, she never MEANS never replied to any of the media questions, instead of that she keeps walking ignoring media like they didn't exist for which she have her own personal reasons.

Shrugging off all the thoughts from her mind she stood up and made her way upstairs. Towards her room.

She opened the door by twisting the doorknob and locked it behind. She rushed towards the bathroom after throwing her purse followed by her phone on the bed.

After taking a long, relaxing and hot shower she came outside the bathroom while rubbing her wet hairs with towel.

She was comfortably paired in dark coffee brown silk spaghetti top with light honey brown satin shorts.

After moisturizing her body and face with lavender lotion cream she landed herself on the bed feeling no ounce of energy left in her.

Since it was already midnight and as much she wanted to sleep her grumbling stomach wasn't helping her.

She closed her eyes feeling her lashes heavy ignoring her empty stomach and  tiredness won over hunger making sleep engulfed her in no seconds.

At a side where she was sleeping without any worry there was someone very far related to her future and in his eyes sleep was nowhere to be found.

" So she rejected you from the position ? "

Veer asked taking a bite of apple.

" Maybe... " Dhruv replied staring at the floor blankly.

" What maybe ? She clearly rejected you !! But why ? What went wrong " he asked not taking a pause.

" I don't know...probably- " Dhruv replied  and at the same time his phone rang making both of them look in the direction where the phone was kept.

Veer stood up sensing how tired he was from today's office incident.

" Who is it ? " Dhruv asked.

" It's an unknown number " he replied making him slightly alert. Veer handed his phone to him.

Dhruv answered the call.

Dhruv : " yes, ? "

Unknown : ..........

From the other side a person said something to him that made him shocked.

Dhruv : " But I was informed that the interview is today itself. "

Unknown : ...........

He became more surprised after hearing him. His heartbeat slightly raced.

Unknown : " So can you come tomorrow sharp by 10 am ? "

Dhruv : " yeah,sure. "

Unknown : " The other things we'll discuss  in the office. Okay then see you tomorrow. "

Dhruv : " Okay "

He said before hanging up the call.

" Kon tha ? "

(Who was it ? )

Veer asked and dhruv looked at him for a good 10 seconds before jumping on him and taking him in a bone crashing hug.

" Saale hat mere upar se "

( Bloody get off from me )

He said pulling him away.

" I knew I'll get it "

Dhruv sequels in happiness making him confused by his words.

" But what happened ? " Veer asked once he pulled back.

Dhruv took a breath before telling him the whole conversation he had a few minutes ago.

Veer's face lit up from shock to surprise and then from excitement and joy.

" Seems like God gave you another chance " Veer said teasingly making dhruv blush a little.

" I hope everything will go well tomorrow " He said mentally manifesting.
