Love and Pain....A Tale of Two Hearts

Mom

"Good Morning Ms. Tripathi" peon greeted me.

"Good Morning Dada..and please stop calling me that...You are too of my father's age, you should call me by my name or else you can call me Aaru too..." She frowned while saying it.

" But you are senior of me and keep my advice with you as you compared me to your father...that you should be professional at your work place or else the wicked people will take advantage of your innocence....Now go to your else that old brat will shout at you again and I don't like it.." He said with a smile on his face adoring her innocence mad sweet behaviour..

"Ohh yaa I forgot..bye bye I will see you around." She said while running to office and smiled at her.

"Ohh..this silly girl..she is way too sweet for this evil world." He mumbled to himself.

"Hii...my baby, I missed you so much darling" Akash said while hugging her from behind as she entered the office.

"Hey.. Akash what are you doing we are at the work place leave me.." she moved away from her and frowned.

"Okay mam fine...." He said disappointed.

"Hmm...I missed you too..so stop making this dull face and move back to work.." she said with a smile and he just hummed and got back to his desk.

Aarohi is the senior of Akash as she is much more qualified as well as hardworking than him. She is very polite and humble towards her colleagues and is a hardworking employee there.

"Good morning sir." She greeted her senior on her way to office.

"Ohh..Aarohi Good Morning, come I had something to talk to you...and yaa Congratulations you cracked the Rathore's deal ." He praised her.

"Thank you sir and yes what the matter???" She said while entering his office.

"Firstly have a seat." He seated on his chair and she seated against the table on the opposite.

"As I said to you earlier you are a hard working girl and had good reputation in company in a very young age..but you should not use this talent of yours on others...Why did you gave your project to Akash?........He himself did nothing and took all the credit and let him." He asked her.

His senior is a man in his fifties, he knew Aarohi and her father as they had met on a function and many times after that, he liked her family and their way of carrying their culture. He found them decent people. He too had a daughter and for him Aarohi is also like his daughter. Also he felt pity for her and her brother as their mother left them at a young age and they had suffered a lot. Yet they were hard working and sweet people.

"It's not like that sir...as you know he is someone who is quite shy of public appearances but he is also talented and hardworking...he just need some support, I hope you understand." She said politely.

"You always says this..well my duty is to guide you. Else is your decision but yes know your potential and what you deserves." He said sternly and she nodded.

"Well now tell me which sweet are you going to give me after this good news." He said making her confuse. "What news sir??" She asked in confusion.

" Looks like someone's hardwork pays off...and ARC Group of Industries is inviting." He amused and that moment when those words echoed her ear drums her smile got brightened up..

"ARC Group of Industries has accepted my resume...oh my god is that true??" She uttered.

"Here is your joining letter and you can join from Monday." He placed a envelope on the desk and she grinned while looking at it.
