AASHIQA'S POV

It has been 3 days since I had started working here and it has been pretty fun but hectic.

Right now I am running towards Kian's cabin because of some work which should have been done an hour ago but is delayed and that work has to be completed anyhow as soon as possible.

I entered in the lift and pressed 64th floor. That floor belongs to only two people, Mr. Rathore and Kian.

While being in the lift I was reading the files. That's when the lift stopped and opened. I did not bother moving my eyes from the file and proceeded to exit the lift and as I am the clumsiest person on the whole fricking planet, I bumped into something hard...wait did the lift door not open?....I was going to fall backwards due to which I closed my eyes waiting for the impact but I felt nothing except a hand snaking around my waist. I was hanging in the air while my hands were on that same something hard.I opened my eyes only to see a pair of piercing eyes staring into mine...my breath hitched seeing those beautiful eyes from this close for the first time...After a good 10 seconds I regained myself back and realised whose eyes those were . My eyes widened in realisation and my face now turned from dreamy to horrified.Mr. Rathore was that something hard I bumped into..aaaaahhhhhh, I screamed internally. 


His warm breath was hitting my face, my hands were on his chest, his one hand was on my waist securing me from hitting the ground and the other one was comfortable in his pocket. His hair were perfectly jelled and were pushed back but some strands were hanging on his forehead , maybe due to the impact. He smelled like musk and sandalwood. His grip tightened around me bringing me closer to his chest....my breath became extremely heavy...ohhh Godd !!!!!

The files from my hand dropped on the ground and that's when I realised the position we were in right now. I quickly composed myself and released myself from his grip. I stood up adjusting my clothes.

" I am so sorry sir " I apologized while taking a step back

" Make your eyes more useful " he said in a taunting tone.

Can't this guy can simply say sorry or atleast it's okay for once. Every time he opens his mouth he only says disrespecting or taunting stuff. I have never heard a kind word from him.

" Khadoos kahi ka " (such a rigid man), I muttered and then realised what I had just done. 


He looked a liitle like Indians...what if he is? And what if he knows Hindi? But from his accent, I don't think he will know what I said but let's not take a risk and confirm.

Then I mustered the courage and asked him when he turned to leave "Sir....do you know Hindi?"

He turned around and for a good 1 minute he just kept standing there and staring at me....then said "No" and left without saying anything else.

Haashh!!!! I sighed. 

Why does he has to keep staring at me like he will eat me alive....but his eyes yaarrr !!!! But we can't forget that he is khadoos....hmph arrogant man.

I picked up the files and rushed towards Kian's office as realisation hit me about the important work.


KABIR'S POV

I was walking towards my personal lift but as I just walked out of my office someone came out of 'my' lift and bumped into me. I was about to shout but then realised who that person was. She was going to fall down, that's when I snaked my hand around her waist and saved her.

Her eyes were closed with her lashes touching her cheeks and her eyebrows joined together due to the fear of falling down and her lips were in a thin line. Her hands were on my chest. I don't know what came over me but I was just staring at her. After realising that she hadn't fell down, she opened her eyes and that's when everything stopped and I forgot to breath. Her eyes were beautiful, like really beautiful ...she was looking directly into my eyes without blinking. At this very moment I just wanted to keep looking at her face and do nothing else.

I then came into my senses when something dropped on the floor and released her from my grip... What the hell was I doing??!! I have to maintain my distance from her...control Kabir...


"khadoos kahi ka " I heard her mutter. I was about to snap but choose not to as I didn't want to stay another second with her due to the impact she had on me just now, so I was about to leave when she asked me if I knew Hindi. Well yes! I know hindi but told her that no, I don't...she doesn't need to now that...when I denied she was happy thinking that I didn't understand what she said about me...then I left from there.

But wait, why did I not do anything about her when she called me khadoos? What did she think of herself? Now I will tell her what Kabir Rathore is.

With this I turned around to scold her but when I turned around she was not there. Where the hell she evaporated... No problem, she will pay for it later...I will not leave her next time.

Next time she will think before saying something about me. Thinking about it, I walked away from there.
