Inaya sat in her cabin, her eyes focused on the laptop screen in front of her and files scattered across her desk. The soft hum of the air conditioner and the clicking of her keyboard filled the room. She was deeply immersed in preparing for the upcoming meeting, meticulously organizing data and refining her presentation.

Her phone buzzed beside her laptop, pulling her attention away from the screen. She glanced at it, a smile spreading across her face as she read the message from Advay.

"Hey love, are you free today?" 

A smile tugged at her lips as she quickly typed back.

"Just a bit busy with work, but I should be free later. Why?"

He replied: "How about we go out for dinner? I'll pick you up at 8?"

Inaya's heart fluttered. Despite their busy schedules, Advay always found a way to make her feel special. She quickly typed back a response.

 "I'd love that. See you at 8. Can't wait!"

She hit send and returned to her work. She was just putting the finishing touches on her presentation when there was a knock on her cabin door.

"Come in," she said, not looking up from the screen.

The door opened, and Rohan walked in. He was carrying a cup of coffee, which he placed on her desk before taking a seat opposite her.

"Hey, kiddo. How's the preparation going?" Rohan asked.

Inaya looked up and smiled. "It's going well. Just finishing up the presentation. I want to make sure it's perfect."

Rohan leaned forward, his eyes scanning the slides on her laptop. "Let's go through it together. We still have some time before the meeting."

Inaya nodded and clicked through the slides, explaining each one in detail. Rohan listened attentively.

"This slide here," he said, pointing to a graph. "I think you should highlight the key data points more clearly."

Inaya nodded, making a quick note. "Good idea. I'll adjust that."

They continued to go through the presentation slide by slide. 

"You're doing great, Inaya. You're going to nail this," Rohan said. "Just remember to stay calm and confident."

Inaya smiled and replied, "Thanks, bhai. I hope so."

As they wrapped up their discussion, Inaya glanced at the clock. It was almost time for the meeting. She gathered her materials and stood up. "I'll see you in the conference room."

Rohan nodded and exited her cabin.

Inaya took a deep breath as she approached the conference room, clutching her laptop and notes.  As she approached the conference room, she could hear the soft murmur of voices and the clinking of coffee cups. The room was already filled with the team members, all seated around the long oval table, waiting for the meeting to begin. 

At the head of the table, her father sat. He looked up and gave her an approving nod, which she returned with a small smile. Rohan was already there, sitting a few seats away from their father, giving her a thumbs up.

"Good afternoon, everyone," Inaya said, confidently. "Let's get started."

She connected her laptop to the projector, and the first slide of her presentation illuminated the screen. The room quieted as everyone turned their attention to her. She clicked to the next slide and began speaking.
