Bright taking a walk in Amazonian like forest and encounters a beautiful tiny little white rabbit. He holds it in his arms and slowly caresses its forehead and suddenly the rabbit open its sharp teeth and bites his Finger. Bright wakes up all sweating from this nightmare. He looks out of the window, the sun is already shining bright and 7:30 am at table clock. He sits at the edge of his bed with his head down reminiscing the last night event. He wants to understand why it happened and should he take responsibility of his actions.It was Win's first day in the office 6 months back. Bright was standing there and witnessing the whole event unfold. When he was introduced by his father to the whole organisation, Win, a finely dressed man, walked on to the stage. He hardly smiled, though it appeared he is satisfied for taking the job. He spoke about his vision for the company, the things he wants to change to make the place more desirable to work and attract many young and bright mind talents . Bright stood there amazed by his stature and his perseverance. He admired Win's dedication and commitment to his profession. Bright has been craftily watching Win since then and wondering himself "This man has every best thing in the world, Why doesn't he seem happy". Once he got to see kind hearted side of Win. He happen to be on the same lift as Win as with many other employees. As the lift stopped, a pregnant employee wanted to get in but there wasn't much place. So Win got himself out as a real gentleman to make place for the woman. He didn't even stand to consider a 'Thank you' from her and he just walked to take the stairs. There were many such situation Bright has been impressed by the humble, selfless actions of Win. He has developed, unknowingly fondness for this beautiful yet Stone hearted person, Win.
Trying to connect the dots, he thinks this might have been the reason that he tried to break the shell by passionately kissing Win. He knows it has costed his job and if the stone hearted person rages against, he probably has lost his whole career. He doesn't know what to do. He wants to look for options but he decides to set this day off and get back to his day routine. He gets on the treadmill installed on his condo.
"Alexa, read the news" Bright instructs. He wasn't able to focus on the news
"Alexa, Play my favourite EDM" he commands. No, neither this is helping him
"Alexa stop"
He stops the treadmill and decides to hit the City mall gym. He leaves his work phone behind and carries his gym attire and ride to the mall by his bike. He meets some of his gym mates on the way and he finds himself feeling better. They plan to take special boxing session and take turn showing out their skills. Bright enjoyed the session and was exhausted. He heads to the bench press and lays down and plays his favourite R&B Music. Bright opens his twitter, to check any updates. He suddenly opens the browser and type 'Win Metawin' in google search bar. He opens the images to fill his eyes with the visuals of the person who is drowning his mind. There are many modelling photos of Win each one more admirable than the other. He finds himself scrolling through his images.
He pull himself up and decides to go back home after grabbing lunch. He speaks to his Mom who is currently visiting his grandmother in the province.
"I miss you mom, I wish I could be there with you" Bright says with an upsetting voice.
"Why don't you take some days off and come down here all your cousins are visiting for grand ma's birthday. It would really make her Happy" Mom replies
"I think that would really make me feel better. I will make the arrangements and call you when am leaving. Love you see you soon" Bright hangs up
So he decides to pack his stuff and leave for the province for few days to take things out of his mind. He decides to stop by Gift shop to buy presents for his grandmother Birthday and also at Central food hall to grab some food for dinner and for his journey.
It is around 8:00pm when he reached his condo. He quickly change to his pyjama and fix his dinner. He wants to check for the flights after dinner. He see his work phone is blinking with many notification he was reluctant to check at first for all the horrors he has to go through. He grabs his phone to the dinner table and start checking the notifications. There were 12 missed calls, 4 sms and 15 team mails. The sms were from his manager and team members checking why he hasn't come to office yet and if he is feeling alright. He starts browsing his email. The one which made his jaw drop is the tomorrow morning Meeting Schedule from the CEO himself to finalise the project plan. He thinks for a while and accepts the meeting and puts his phone on the table and breathe a sigh of relief that he still has chance to set things right.
