Chapter 34

               

Aasha's Pov

        We all finished our lunch with Rocky and Riya's cute bickerings. Then only i remembered that Mr. Malhotra didn't had his lunch yet. 

"Heh guys! I want one extra lunch box" i said. 

"You want to have another lunch? Are you that much hungry? Oh God! Is Mr. Malhotra giving you hard work so you're feeling hungry even after finishing our cafeteria's tasty lunch?" Rocky asked me dramatically. I shook my head and before i could say anything Shreya cut me off. 

"Yeah, actually Aasha was working in Mr. Malhotra's cabin from morning. When i went to his cabin, Aasha's face looked red like a 'tomato' " Shreya said.

Hearing shreya's words, i gasped. Oops!  That means she saw me blushing. I was about to say 'no'. Again i was cut off by Riya. I sighed seeing at my dramatic friends. 

"Why her face was red?" Riya asked looking at Shreya with a frown.

Ohh no! What will they think of me now?

"What else could be the reason for her red face, Riya?" Shreya asked Riya with a raised eyebrow. 

"No shreya. Its not what you think" i tried to explain. I just don't want my friends to know about my and Mr. Malhotra's relationship.

Wait! What relationship i had with my boss. I really lost my mind. 

"Why are you saving Mr. Malhotra, Aasha? He must have scolded you for something. Thats why your face looked red, right?" Shreya asked me with a concern. I looked at her blankly. Oh! She thought that way. Thats good. I sighed mentally. 

"Did that Mr. Malhotra scolded you?" Rocky asked me with his wide eyes. I bite my lips not knowing what to say. Only i know what he did with me. 

"Lets go to his cabin. How can he scare our naive Aasha? I think we should have to make him understand that he should treat his PA with respect" saying this Rocky got up from his seat. Even Riya got up from her seat. I grabbed Rocky's hand to stop him. 

"Hey guys! Stop please, okay? Yes yes he scolded me because i..i.. forgot to…no i actually… spilled water on his desk. Thats why he scolded me. Its my mistake. Leave it" i said hurriedly.

"But how can he scold you just for spilling water on his desk?" Riya asked me. 

"Because there was a lot of important files placed on his desk. If anyone in his place, they would have fired me, Riya. Thank God! He just left me with a warning. So please leave it and i asked for an extra lunch box for Mr. Malhotra. He always skips his lunch thats why" i said this all in one go and took a deep breath. They all looking at me like i had grown two horns on my head. 

"Please leave it guys" i pleaded them with my puppy eyes. 

"So you asked that lunch box for Mr. Malhotra?" Everyone asked in chores voice. I nodded at them. 

"Why you're caring about his lunch?" Riya asked me. 

"I ahh… actually he asked me to buy a lunch box" i said.

"But Mr. Malhotra always skipps his lunch. But why today?" Shreya asked me. 

"How do i know? He must have felt hungry. Thats why i guess" i said looking here and there. 

"You sure he is treating you nice and you're not hiding anything from us?" Rocky asked me. 

"No i am not hinding anything" i said. Finally they all convinced and after buying a lunch box we all parted our ways. A huge sigh left my lips. But i felt guilty for lying to my friends. I never thought that i will get a protective friends. Rocky is really behaving like my big brother.
