Sarah was standing outside a big building, with a bag in her hand, looking all nervous and anxious. She took a glance at Meraj who blinked at her with assurance that everything will be fine. She nodded and went inside the Office.

"Is he rude?" Sarah asked only to receive a glare from Meraj.

"Sarah, stop eating my mind and just go and meet him." Meraj replied and dragged her to Mr. Ejaz's cabin through hallway gathering everyone's attention towards them.

"Is he handsome?" Sarah asked again making Meraj rolled his eyes.

"Go and see yourself." He replied and pushed her inside the cabin.

She managed to stand straight preventing herself from touching the ground and looked at the old man sitting on the chair with a cold face. She smiled and went near him.

"Good morning sir!" She said with a shivered voice. Ejaz didn't reply and stood up as if he was examining her.

"What's your name?" He asked.

"Sarah, Sarah Haider." She replied hurriedly and cursed herself for stuttering.

Ejaz nodded and took her CV.

"Go and prepare a coffee for me then Mr. Amir will provide you with your schedules." He said and went back to his seat making Sarah nodd.
She quickly made her way out expecting Meraj there but to her surprise he was no where to be seen.

This man! Can't he wait for me?!

She took her phone dialed his number.

Osman and Meraj with other team members were discussing about the land dispute matter with the local criminals who call themselves mafias. The weren't ready to lend the land for the construction work, as they have promised. After giving them many warnings and threats they were still being stubborn and weren't even returning the amount they took. So now it was the time when Osman's patience flued. He never made request and it was his orders that were enough to make things happen. But they weren't taking his words seriously so now he will chose violence as the last option.

"Make sure no one runs away." Osman ordered making his men nodd.

"Meraj, this work will be done under your assistance." Osman said and Meraj was going to reply when his phone rang. He hurriedly put the phone on silent and gathered his attention to the work going on. But his phone buzzed again and the caller ID says Sarah. Osman looked at the screen and then at Meraj who gulped in nervousness.

"It's okay, pick up the call it must be more important than the meeting." Osman taunted him. He took his phone and hurriedly went outside the cabin.

Why is she calling him? Only few days has passed and they even exchanged their numbers. He thought.

"Sorry boss. So what were we discussing about?" Meraj came back hurriedly and asked.

"The discussion is over. But there are other things I need to discuss with you." Osman said closing the file whole his eyes fixed on Meraj. He ordered his other men to leave the place, leaving the two alone.

"Discuss about what?" Meraj asked being nervous.

"Why did she call you?" Osman asked.

"Who?" Meraj asked dodging the question making Osman sigh as he was losing his patience.

"Leave it." Osman replied closing the laptop and left the cabin leaving a confused Meraj behind.

What is his problem?! Meraj thought.
