Asfandyaar walked inside the large room. He threw his coat in the couch loosening his tie. The clock ticked at 5 in the evening. He sat in the sit, frustrated. He called his secretary from the intercom.

"Yes sir?" He rushed inside. Looking at his furious eyes. The secretary, Amit questioned, "Is everything alright, Sir?"

"I want every detail about that doctor." He glared at him. Amit, who was unaware of anything that was happening stood confused.

"Sir, she had already resigned from her job."

"Did I asked you that?" Asfandyaar shot him a glare. Amit gazed down at the floor. His tie suffocating him with the blaze of his gaze.

"Get me the details by the evening."

Amit went out and Asfandyaar started working on his projects. He was the CEO of Shah Industries. Living a subtle life, without a shelter of warmness, he grew up to be cold and arrogant. There was no one in his life whom he could love or they could love him. Only Lily Martinez, his nanny was special to him.

After completing the bunch of work and meetings by the evening at 6, he went out of the office and sat in his car. He threw the tuxedo that he barely wore in the day. All day only Zubab was in his mind. For the first time in hai life, he was having a bad feeling for getting her out of the job. He had fired many employees of his corporation but something was striking him the entire evening for losing her as an employee. Starting the engine, he settled comfortably and started driving.

The discomfort was killing him, he drove towards the lake, he often used to visit as a child with her mother. It was his comfort place, a place where fresh strokes of winds reminds him of the warmth that his mother had. The sufferings were too oppressed for her live with his father. He came out of the car, after removing the tie, wearing the tux because of the wind, opening up the first buttons of his shirt and went towards the end of the lake.

The walk towards the edge was therapeutic as the suffocation started to drew away. For his dismay, there was someone sitting on the edged stone as well. It was his spot. He sight in irritation. "Cheers to the bad day," he murmured in his breath gazing at the woman sitting there with her back facing him.

She turned to look at him because of the sound of his sigh. She realised that someone was standing behind her.

A sigh left her lips looking at the person. It was her this time, it was Zubab sitting there. "This day couldn't get much worse." He said slowly under his breath walking towards her and sitting besides.

"Do you have any idea how dangerous it is for a woman to sit all alone by herself in the end and the edge of a abandoned lake?"

She rolled her eyes at his words and gazed at the water, soothing her mind to calmness. "It's better than animals living inside a huge thirty floor building." She clearly hinted the Shah Industries headquarters. She had expected him get angry and throw a fit but to her surprise, he laughed. The sound of his laugh sounded so foreign to her that she started to stare at him for a while in astonishment.
