Natasha was rushing around Pandya Niwas as it was her first day at her new job.   She was starting as a PA for Chirag Makwana, one of the directors of Makwana Group.

"Chikku, I'm late.  Please drop me off at the office.  It's my first day, "  said Natasha to her brother.

"You are lucky. You are my sister.  Let's go."  said Chikku as he grabbed his keys.

"Thank you, thank  you, thank you!  You're the best."  said an excited Natasha.

Natasha was enjoying her first day at work. Her boss, Chirag, was a sweetheart.  And the other other employees were nice too.  She had heard that the head director, the eldest brother, was very strict, but Chirag was easygoing, making her feel at ease.  Chirag had mentioned that he has 3 brothers, two older and one younger.  And together they are Makwana group.   Each brother had their own sister company within the Makwana Group.  Natasha liked the workload and Chirag.

Natasha was working for Chirag for a couple of months, and she had met his older brothers, and they seemed nice, and it was true about the eldest brother. He was strict.  Natasha was a little scared of him, especially when she rushed into Chikku's arms one evening, and Amrish had seen her.  The next day, he came into Chirag's office and started to interogate her, thinking Chikku was her boyfriend.

"Ms. Natasha, please come to Chirag's office."  Amrish said as he walked into Chirag's office.

Natasha walked into the office after Amrish, wondering if she did something wrong.

"Ms. Natasha, please keep your personal life away from the office.  I realize that it is your personal life, but we like to keep an open mind, but the truth is that there are a lot of people that work here that are not open-minded.  We do not want any issues coming out for you later."  said Amrish straightforward.

"Excuse me, sir?  What are you talking about?" asked Natasha

"Last night, as you were leaving the office, you were very open with your  boyfriend-" said Amrish

"Stop! That wasn't my boyfriend.  He's my brother.  My older brother.  The person who raised me after the death of our parents.   I was only 8 years old when our parents died.  He was only 18 years old when he assumed the role of my parents.   He didn't even get to grieve our parents, as he had to parent me.   Everyone told him to drop me in an orphanage, as he was young, but he refused.  So I am sorry if my affection for my brother offends you, but I will not stop being affectionate to my brother, and if that bothers you, you can fire me." said Natasha

"Natasha, calm down.  Please go back to your desk.  And you aren't going anywhere." said Chirag

Natasha left and closed the door behind her.

"Amrish Bhai, that was uncalled for.  Natasha is a good worker and person.  You shouldn't have cast doubts on her character."  said Chirag to Amrish

"Actually, I knew he was her brother.  I wanted to see if she would tell me the truth.  And she did."  said Amrish

"Why?"

"Well, Dhawal likes her a lot.   He wants to marry her.  But she thinks of him as a spoil brat.  I like her.  I think she will be perfect for Dhawal."  said Amrish, smiling.

"If she thinks Dhawal as a spoil brat, she won't say yes to him."  said Chirag.

"We will think of something."  said Amrish as he got up to leave.

"Ms. Natasha" as he stopped by her desk. "I am sorry if I offended you.  I didn't want you to be the butt of the rumors.  Rumors cause grief, and I wouldn't want that for you."  said Amrish, surprising her.
