Titly's P.O.V

Returning to my cabin, I sat on my chair with the coffee in my hand. I normally take one cube of sugar but sipping the coffee with two cubes of sugar, I didn't find any difference as my mind was on other thoughts.

Who is Titly and why was Sir crying?

My questions remained unanswered. As it was my first day, I didn't know anyone in the office so I didn't have anyone to answer my question.

Giving my thoughts some rest, I tried to focus on the project which has been finalized today. I started to read the project file carefully in detail to fully understand the project which seems now quite understandable because of the previous presentation.
After some time my phone rang off with an unknown ID. I decided to attend the call, "Hello, who's this?"
There was silence for some moments on the other side.

Then I heard a rude voice. "Come to my cabin".

"What?! Who the " the call was disconnected even before me completing my words.

How rude! Who the hell is he to order me like that? And what was that?!
"Come to my cabin" what a joke !
But for some reason, the voice sounded familiar. Wait a moment. What did he say!

The sentence came into my mind instantly and I rushed to his cabin hurriedly thinking of what should I say to him now.

I not only didn't save the number but also hadn't recognized his voice. What to do! I am so dead now.

I just hope not to get fired at least not on the very first day of my job. After knocking, I entered the cabin. When I started to give my sorry speech "Sir I am really sorry. Actually, I didn't get to save your number to re "

He cut me off by giving me a file, "I want a report on the surroundings of this location regarding anything to everything. You have 4 hours. Got that?"

I was surprised as he didn't get out his anger or didn't throw any sarcastic comment on me for my mistake as he was a very short-tempered person which I understood within these few hours. Anyway, I tried to utter some words to apologize again.

"Sir, I am so "

But even before I completed one sorry word, he again cut me off. "Do you want ME to REPEAT my words?" giving on two words extreme emphasis.

"No sir, Sorry."

"Now GET going."

Without any word, I left the cabin.

When I took the elevator to the ground floor, I found some of my colleagues. Normally I get attached to people easily but as it was my first day and so I was somewhat hesitant.
When they found me staring at them, one of them asked me, "First day, right?"

On that, I just nodded. She extended her hand, "I am Neety and you?"
"Tithy. Thank you for taking the initiative to talk actually I was very hesitant."

"Getting hesitant on the very first day is normal but don't worry. You can talk to us freely."

All of them introduced themselves with a smiling face except one maybe she didn't like me but why? What did I even do?

My chain of thought got broken by Neety. "Where are you heading now?"
"For Site location details." I answered gently.

"Okay. But it's lunchtime now. Take lunch with us ad then go?"

I nodded with a smile. I enjoyed their accompany and especially liked the girl, Neety. After lunch, I went for the site location details. As I was not very much fond of traveling, it took me some time to get to the location.
