📍New York, USA.

"I will definitely come, darling. Believe me." I replied as my phone call was on speaker.

"How can I miss this golden opportunity." I tried to console Ridhima-my bestie who was throwing tantrums.

"I have cancelled all my plans and am leaving for India straight at 10:30 A.M." I explained.

I should reach India around 9:00 P.M. if I take this flight.

"Okay fine but I wanted you with me today." Ridhima pouted over the call.

My first ever best friend, Ridhima Singhania, whom I met in KG class.

She got shifted to a different state after our 7th class. Her and I used to enjoy together a lot.

"Is today something special?" I asked despite the inner turmoil within me. I'm sure today isn't anything special.

"No but today in the evening, Manish and his family are coming here to see me." She sighed.

"Oh." So that means marriage has not been decided yet.

"Now, I just want you here before my engagement." I can hear the disappointment in her voice.

I was about to leave for India yesterday itself but a very important meeting came up which made me postpone my flight.

After an hour, I'm going to fetch my flight to India.

"I will be there, I promise. And you know I don't break them." I was determined enough about what I just said.

"Yeah, you only know how to break bones." She laughed at her joke.

"A girl should be an all rounder like me." Joining her laughter, I replied.

"Okay bye. I need to get ready now. I can't wait to see you. Love you!" A smile spread across my face as she bid.

"Yeah, Love you too!" We cut off the call with a promise to see each other soon.

My gaze went upon my personal assistant, Naksh Sharma who was standing in front of my table.

Did I make him wait for long?

"I wanted to talk with you about Zn's shares." He finally spoke after waiting patiently.

"Just sell them." Since I will be leaving New York, I won't be able to keep an eye on Zn's. It's better to sell them off.

He nodded, going through all the files of Zn's shares.

Surprisingly, he is a very obedient assistant unlike others who are always annoyed by their boss.

The best part is that he had never questioned my decisions and always went with the flow.

"Yesterday I found a book on your table." He suddenly mentioned, his eyes still fixated on the file in his hand.

"Book?" I tried to remember.
