Perfectly Imperfect

2.I'm getting married?

Sometimes all you need is to be a part of the crowd and not stand out. A crowd called life. Everyone has one. But how many actually live it?

Inaya's POV

May I come in?"

"Come in". I heard a male voice from inside and opened the door.

Three people were seated on their respective chairs. One lady and two men. Their aura was radiating years of knowledge and experience and I was already on my mission to make this interview a success.

"Good morning ma'am and sir " I slightly bowed with a smile and greeted them.

"Good morning Ms. Verma",said the lady while reciprocating the smile and I felt an ease of familiarity. "Please take a seat". I obliged.

"Hello Ms. Verma,myself Mr. Vivek Malhotra the chariman of Malhotra's, she's Mrs. Mehek Malhotra the CFO and he's Mr. Rishi Malhotra the vice chairman. Since the interview is for the post of finance director we decided to choose the candidate ourselves".he said with a genuine yet firm smile
"Ms. Verma we have gone through your resume and it's impressive. You have been a constant asset to all the companies you have worked in. We look forward to this interview".

The interview went smoothly and I finally took a breath after coming out of the cabin. Since they will be informing about their decision via mail by evening 6pm, I packed all the tension in my mind and locked them in a box. Now I will finally go and meet Roop. My phone beeped and a text appeared. Speak of the devil and she's here.

On text*
Roop🌸💅: Hey winter! I'm on my way to Ms. Betty and if you don't reach on time I'mma kill ya I swear🗡️

Me:Calm down Roop! I'm on my way to the cafe

Roop🌸💅: You better be cuz I have already sharpened the knife👀🗡️

Me: On my way Ms. Violence!

I went downstairs, started my car and practically flew towards Ms. Betty, our usual meeting place for 2 years. Roop is a sweetheart. When she had saved her number on my phone she had made sure to add a set of emojis to make her number look "uniqhe like her" and I never changed them. I somehow liked it. She is the only friend I have got apart from my sister. I have spend more of my time with research books and my fictional men ofcourse.[PS: don't tell anyone. It's a secret between you and me.]

Time skip*
At Ms. Betty
I spotted her as soon as I entered the cafe taking in the burst of honey cinnamon and citrus fragrances of cakes and cookies with the bitterly satisfying aroma of coffee. She practically jumped on me and her arms surrounded me in a choking bear hug. I stumbled back to balance Ms. Excitment.

" Agar tu 2 minute aur late karti toh mein na tere se aur baat nahi karti."she said pouting cutely.
[I wouldn't have talked to you had you been late by even 2 minutes more]
I giggled at her cuteness.

"Ab toh mein time pe aayi na chal smile de de". [Now I did come at time right? Give a smile.]
She smiled and then we sat down at our usual place beside the long window streching from the fine grounds to the polished heights of the ceiling. I sat in front of her across the table.

"Chal bata interview kaisa Gaya meri jaan",[Now tell me how did the interview go sweetheart?]
she asked dramatically while leaning towards me slightly.

"It went pretty nice. I met Mr. And Mrs. Malhotra for the first time and not gonna lie, their knowledge and experience never failed to inspire me."

Roop: Yahan mein tere liye tension le rahi thi aur tu toh Mount Everest jhande fehrake aayi hai lagta hai.
[Here I was tensed about you but seems like you succeeded in climbing Mount Everest]
She said dramatically shaking her head.
