(Knock, knock)

Soumya opened the room's door: what do you want Pari?

Pari looked at Soumya's hand that was in it some kind of a white plastic stick and Soumya instantly hid it behind her back

Pari: Ms. Marie asked me to clean the terrace of your room, Is this a good time to do that?

Soumya: come in

Pari bowed her head and entered the terrace, and closed the curtains behind her as Soumya sat on the bed and held the stick then picked up a small pink box written on it "Pregnancy Home Test" and started reading the instructions at the back

(Knock, knock)

Soumya flinched and hid everything under the pillow then went to the door and opened it

Soumya smiled: Rudra

Rudra smiled: hi pumpkin, were you napping?

Soumya smiled: yes

Rudra smiled: sorry, I brought to you a gift

Soumya: a gift?

Rudra smiled: wait here

And he went away for few minutes then entered carrying a small modern cradle, Soumya covered her lips and swallowed

Rudra: don't worry, I didn't buy a heavy wooden one, it's just a metal frame and stretchy clothes so you can move it anywhere easily (then he put it in a corner) but I like it here, this way our son will be near the bed and sunlight will reach him from the window but not much to hurt him (then he smiled) now I will leave you for your beauty sleep

Soumya: Rudra? Can you call Anika for me?

In the office room

Francine: ...what I don't understand, Princess Sarah; why are you still working for this monster? You are a Princess you don't need this.

Sarah smiled and looked at Shivaay through the office room's window as did Francine and Shivaay was at the Garden walking backward and forward while talking in the phone and Anika walking behind him like his shadow

Sarah: you just don't know Mr. Shivaay, it's your first day, don't judge him yet

Francine: my first day and he fired me twice already, he is so cruel.

Sarah smiled widely: Mr. Shivaay is not cruel, he is just a perfectionist, and he makes rules to everything and his rule to business that it's just business, no emotions, no friendships or family in business; that is why he acts like that.

Francine: yes that is why he took the commercial from his brother's agency and fired me twice

Sarah: yes but Mr. Raja provoked him and made it a competition and Mr. Shivaay is perfectionist like I said, so he can't accept to lose but how to explain that he wasn't happy that Anika will do the commercial although he won with her, and how to explain that he didn't fire you or fired me for real.

Francine looked at her and didn't answer as Sarah smiled and shook his head

Sarah: because it's not really just business for him, although it's his rule and he believes he is following it, that is why I will always work for Mr. Shivaay and when you truly know him and see how brilliant and good he is at his job despite of his young age, you will understand how lucky we are to work with him and you will learn so much from him

Francine shook her head in disbelief: forgive me Princess but I don't think I can work for him for long time; I have to find another job.

Shivaay put down his mobile and walked away from their sight so both Sarah and Francine returned back to their seats and after few minutes Shivaay entered the office room and behind him entered Anika.
