Atid goes through the new hires files and his eyes stuck on the large brown eyes that is haunting his sleep. He reads the personal file and a  smile appears on his face.

Atid: You are not only kind hearted but intelligent too. Class topper, valedictorian, football player. Impressive resume.

Suddenly the smile disappears from his face as he remembers why he was looking for the file. The expression on his face hardens as he picks up the phone and dials an extension.

Atid: Come to my cabin now. I have something urgent to discuss.

Atid disconnects the call and looks at the file once again with a grim expression.

Aroon's POV:

It's already past 7 in the night and he is still stuck in the office doing some paperwork. It's been a week since he joined the company and the work is so hectic that he hardly gets time to eat or sleep. The first two days were okay but then more and more work started to get assigned to him and the deadlines were ridiculous. He skipped his lunch and stayed back late to complete the work assigned to him. He is okay with the workload but there is something else or rather someone else  who is bothering him. He jolts out of his thoughts when a pair of hands grab his  shoulder. His breathe hitches in fear as he recognizes the person standing behind him.

"Hello Aroon."

A shiver runs down his spine as the person whispers his name so close to his ears.

Aroon: M...Mr. Rattane.

Josh: How many times have I told you to call me Josh?

Aroon: I...I don't think that is appropriate. You are my manager.

Josh: We can change that, can't we?

Josh says in a seductive voice that sends  chills down Aroon's body. Aroon tries to move away from him but he is trapped in his seat by a pair of hands holding the hand rest.

Josh: Come on sweetheart, I am trying so hard to flirt with you and you are ignoring me. Why don't loosen up a bit and have some fun?

Aroon: I...I...

"Office is the not the place for your fun activities Mr. Rattane."

Josh jumps away from Aroon on hearing the cold, authoritative voice behind him. Aroon is stunned and relieved to see Atid standing before him with an unreadable expression.

Josh: Sir, I....We...

Atid: I am not interested in your fun activities Mr. Rattane. Just do whatever you are doing outside my workplace.

Atid starts to walk away from there and Aroon starts to panic once again. Atid stops midway and looks at Aroon with a cold expression.

Atid: Mr..Ananada, I would appreciate it, if you complete the work assigned to you diligently instead of flirting with your boss to skip your work.

Aroon felt his heart break seeing the disgusted look thrown his way. He wants to defend himself but no words come out of his mouth. Tears starts forming in his eyes and he felt like he is unable to breath due to the pain in his chest. Soon dark spots start forming before his eyes and then everything goes black before his eyes.

Atid's POV:

It's been a week since he joined the office as the CEO. His days are hectic as they are filled with meetings and conference calls. But he never forgot about his mission,  to get Aroon far away from him. He made sure that more and more work is assigned to Aroon, so that he does not get time to take a break. He expected him to breakdown or make a mistake so that he can throw him out of the company. But he was surprised by how hardworking the guy is. Every day he saw him skip his lunch and stay back to complete his work. His work was neat and accurate. But something about him irked him. It was nothing but the closeness of Aroon with his manager Josh. The guy always brought Aroon snacks and stayed back with him in office. He didn't like their closeness but kept his mouth shut until he saw something tonight that made him lose his control.

Atid was on his way to check on Aroon when he saw a sight that boiled his blood. The guy called Josh was standing with Aroon trapped between his arms and their faces so close to each other. What irritated him most was that Aroon was not protesting or moving away from him. He could not hold himself back and spoke up to announce his presence.

Atid: Office is the not the place for your fun activities Mr. Rattane.

Atid noticed the surprised look on Aroon's face along with something else which he could not read. He looked at Josh who is looking at him with a sheepish look.

Josh: Sir, I....We...

Atid: I am not interested in your fun activities Mr. Rattane. Just do whatever you are doing outside my workplace.

He starts to walk away from there but stops midway and looks at Aroon who is still standing there without saying a word. That increases his frustration and he just lashes out at him.

Atid: Mr..Ananada, I would appreciate if you complete the work assigned to you diligently instead of flirting with your boss to skip your work.

Atid saw hurt flash in his eyes for a second but he ignores it and starts walking away from there but a loud thud sound stops his steps. He looks behind and is shocked to see Aroon lying on the ground with his eyes closed. There is blood oozing out from a cut on his forehead.

Atid: Aroon.....

Atid runs and kneels down next to Aroon. He lifts his head and places it on his lap.

Atid: Aroon...Aroon...

Aroon does not respond and Atid panics on seeing this. He looks at Josh who is standing there looking at him in shock.

Atid: Call the doctor, you idiot.

Josh: Ye...Yes Sir.

Atid picks up Aroon in his arms and starts walking towards his cabin.
