"There is a lot to do. I am so tired. I want a coffee. Nancy can you get some coffee?"asked Stella while yawning.
"Why can't you get it for yourself. Take one for Me too Stella" Nancy replied back.
"I am the one who goes usually. I was asking-"

"Have you finished your work?"
Both Nancy and Stella turned round to see Rose walking in.
"No ma'am. It will be done soon." Nancy said while she sat properly and picked up a file from the table pretending to work.
"Okay, finish it within an hour and send it to my mail"
"Yes ma'am!" Nancy replied and started to work.
Rose got in her office.
She was so damn rich by then. She worked as their manager. She owned a house, car and was so stylish too.
"Why does she have to be so harsh. It's so long. How do I even start? " Nancy spoke to herself.
"You did your work?" Asked Stella turning her chair towards Nancy.
"Didn't start! I am so tired. I went to party with Peter yesterday. It was so good. And-"
"So you went to party Nancy. Wow! That's great. Now do your work."
Rose was standing behind them taking water from the storage tank.
Nancy was shocked to see Rose and said "YES ma'am!!" And started typing something and Stella turned the chair facing her monitor.
Bowie, Petter and Johan came in laughing saying about something related to Riding. Stella looked at them and pointed towards Rose's office whispering "she's here!"
As soon as they heard that Bowie said
"Today's work will be fun! I loooove to work"
Petter walked to Nancy and touched her cheeks with his finger.
"Stop!! I have a lot to finish here!" She said and beat his hand of her cheeks.

Rose locked her office and came out saying "I have some meeting to attend so I'm leaving. Nancy! Finish the work and send it today itself. And Petter I want to meet you tomorrow!" And Rose left saying that.
"Okay ma'am!" Nancy and Stella addressed.
"Me why?" Peter said quietly without Rose hearing it.
All the other seemed to be in joy. As soon as she left the office Nancy threw the file from her hand and stood up from the chair.
"I want a coffee!" She said and ran outside. Stella followed Nancy outside.
"I don't know what's going on!" Petter was yelling. Bowie and Johan grabbed his collar and took him out with them unbothered.
"You don't seem to have a problem but why - " Johan covered Peter's mouth with his hands.

They all were sitting on a table at the coffee shop drinking coffee.
Johan said "You know our alumni Sriya! It's her marriage tomorrow"
"Sriya! Who?" Asked Peter.
"Yes! I got the invitation too" said Bowie.
"We should celebrate this!" Said Stella.
"We will rock !! Yeah!" Shouted Nancy.
But Peter seemed confused.
"Rose will be there too maybe" Said Bowie.
"Yeah! She was her boss. The whole office is gonna attend the marriage then she should come too. "
"But she said she wants to meet me tomorrow. Right! Then how will she come" Peter said jumping in to the conversation.
"Take this thing away from here now!" Shouted Stella.
"Come! come with me darling" Nancy said and pulled him out from the chair.
"You guys never share anything with me!" Said Peter angrily trying to push Nancy's hand.
"Don't get so emotional. Let's go to a park come!" Said Nancy. She holded Peter's hands and started walking out.
"I'll send you the plan!!" Said Johan waving his hands.
"Okay!!" Said Nancy and she left with Peter.

"Guys! guys! Rose seem to be in a bad mood nowadays. I saw her with a man last day!" Stella said leaning towards the table and then she put the straw in her mouth.
"No! She is not the kind to be in love! Hahaha!" Laughed Bowie and Stella.
" 'Love can change people' " quoted Johan.
"Yeah! That's true. But that's not applicable with Rose!" Said Bowie and he walked to the cashier.
"What if it can!" Said Johan while he stood up.
"Are you gonna love her?" Asked Stella.
"No never am I gonna love her"
"Then stop this bullshit and come out!" Said Stella and she walked out with Bowie.
"I mean not me someone can maybe" Johan said trying to reach them.

"So you are gonna love her." Said Bowie while driving.
"No. But love can change people!" replied Johan.
The signal tuned red and Bowie stopped the car.
"Okay. I give you a challenge. Make Rose fall in love with you and you win 100 dollars from me." Said Bowie.
"50 from me!!" Remaked Stella from the backseat.
"But, Rose is my boss!"
"Why does that matter? She is rich and she got that looks and body too." Said Bowie.
Stella cheered from the back saying "yeah he's right!"
"YOU CAN!" said Bowie smiling and start the car again as the signal turned green.
"Nothing is for free here Johan! If you succeed you win 150 dollar and Rose too" said Stella and winked.
"Just give it a try Johan!" Bowie said.

"Hello! Is this Rose?"
"Yeah!" Replied Rose.
"It's me Johan. It's our alumni Sriya's wedding tomorrow. I hope you got the invitation. We all from office were planing to go together so we wanted you to come there too."
"Yes Johan. I got the invitation. I'll be there by 11am tomorrow."
"Okay. We'll be waiting!" Johan said and hung the phone.
Rose felt weird as no one from her office ever called her by her name.

"So did you give her a call ?" Asked Bowie.
"Yes! She said she'll be there by 11am"
"So you decided to try! I know You can!" Cheered Bowie.
"Cheers!!" said Johan and drank the glass of beer in his hands.

"Where is she?"
"Will she even come?" Asked Stella.
"Yeah she told me she will be here by 11 am!" Johan said while looking at his watch. It was 11 past 10.
He dialled Rose.
"Hello! Rose! Did you start from home?"
"Johan my car suddenly broke down and it needs a repair. I'll get there soon. I'm waiting for a taxi now."
"Just send me the location. I'll be there!" Johan said and hung the phone.
"No. It's okay-" The call ended before she could finish.
Rose thought for a moment and decided to send him the location.
"Will this work Johan?" Bowie asked. "she is your boss after all".
Notification sound hit Johan's phone. It was a message from Rose.
Bowie was surprised and Johan gave Bowie a smrik.
Johan went to the given location and saw Rose standing there waiting for him.
As soon as she saw the car she came near and got in.
"It's being late! Start the car" Rose said while putting the seat belt.
Johan has only seen Rose in that Black suit she use to wear at office but today she was dressed in fancy clothes. She looked stunning.
"Okay!" He responded and started the car.
Rose got out of the car as they reached the wedding hall. Johan expected Rose to thank him and say 'it would have been late if you weren't there.' He walked towards Rose thinking that he could say 'its fine Rose'.

"Anyway Thanks Johan. It would have been early if you didn't came. Many taxi's went by after you called and I couldn't get on them."
Johan's hopes went wrong.
"I'm sorry. I thought it would be a help for you ma'am!" Replied Johan.
"Its okay. Let me go in now" Rose smiled and walked to the hall.
Bowie who heard their conversation came near Johan laughing.
"All these are because of you and your challenge!"
"You did great Johan! Rose has never spoke with anyone such politely" Bowie said laughing.
"If you are finished teasing you may go!"Johan said.
"Johan, let's drop this! I don't think this would work!" Bowie said to Johan in a serious tone.
"No Bowie! I want to try once more!" Johan said and walked into the hall.
Bowie understood that he fell for Rose really this time and he walked in too.

"You look dashing Sriya!" Rose exclaimed as she saw Sriya in wedding dress.
"Rose madam. I didn't expect you would come! Thanks for coming."
"You are out of work now. You can call me Rose".
Both hugged.

"Ask her out for a drink man!" Bowie said to Johan looking at Rose.
"Let this finish"
The marriage was going on and music was playing.
"You guys were here?" A voice came from behind.
They turned to see Nancy and Peter behind them.
"Oh! Yes Nancy we came early!" Bowie said.
"What about our challenge?" asked Stella who was standing near them leaning back and then she smiled.
"You were here too! You guys really!" Johan said.
"Actually the marriage is now only!" Said Peter.

As soon at the marriage was over the dining time began. Johan took a mic from the stage and started singing. Nancy and Peter began dancing in pair. Suddenly others at the party started dancing with them. The bride and groom was dancing too. Bowie and Stella was standing clapping their hands in a corner and someone pushed Stella from behind to make her dance. Stella began dancing and then someone pushed Bowie towards Stella. Then they both started dancing together.
Everyone there were dancing and were enjoying. Johan was singing for them. He was dancing too.
But then he saw Rose walking out of the hall looking frustrated. He stopped singing and handed the mic over to the stage singer and followed her. He moved others who were dancing there, making his way towards the exit. But he couldn't find Rose out there. He took a round around the Hall but couldn't find her.
He stood out and smoke a cigarette. Bowie, Stella, Nancy and Peter walked out as the dance was over.
"Did you see Rose? We looked for her there for a group photo but couldn't find her" asked Nancy.
"No!" Replied Johan
"Let's go then"
Johan said and walked towards his car and all Others followed him.
