Meera's message lit up Aarav's phone, a beacon of unexpected hope in the midst of his uncertainties. With a mix of excitement and curiosity, he answered the call.

**Meera:** Hey, Aarav! How's it going?

**Aarav:** Oh, you know, the usual struggle with the paperwork and waiting for that elusive marksheet. What's up?

**Meera:** Well, I was talking to my manager today, and we have an opening in our office. I thought, why not ask you to join us temporarily? It might help pass the time while you wait for the paperwork stuff to sort out.

**Aarav:** (surprised) Really? You'd do that for me?

**Meera:** Absolutely! I hate seeing you stuck in this limbo. Plus, you're a quick learner, and I know you'd be a great addition to the team.

**Aarav:** (grateful) Meera, I don't know what to say. This means a lot, truly. But, are you sure it's not too much trouble?

**Meera:** (smiling) Aarav, you're not trouble. I can't stand seeing you all gloomy and stressed. Besides, it'll be good to have a familiar face around the office.

**Aarav:** (emotionally) Thank you, Meera. You have no idea how much this means to me. It's been a tough ride lately.

**Meera:** We all have our tough times, Aarav. But I believe things will work out for you. In the meantime, let's make the best of what we have.

**Aarav:** You're a lifesaver, Meera. I'll give it my all at the office. And I promise, once this marksheet saga is over, I owe you a treat.

**Meera:** Deal! Now, get ready for a new adventure. It's time for a change of scenery, my friend.
