Mumbai.
It's been almost a month, now Dev is Busy in Asia Cup tournament, Prarthana already shifted to Mumbai three days ago and today is her first day.

Prarthana wanted to surprise him when she shift to Mumbai but before she plan surprise Dev announced his Shrilanka tour. She was happy but this long distance relationship was making it little tough for them.

Prarthana literally cried few days ago when she was still in Bengaluru. She was already missing him and her mood swings did worst.

Right now Prarthana is going through her wardrobe to find a appropriate outfit for her first day in corporate world. After few moments of deliberation she finally picked up a white tshirt with navy-blue pants and matching blezer. Laying them on bed she started to get ready, it's first step to her professional life and she can't afford to mess it.

"I think it's perfect" she mumbled and slipped into her choosen outfit. She was nervous but excited, she pulled down the white tshirt and slipped into the blue pants. She wore the blezer and was adjusting it whe she heard her phone ringing.

She looked at the I'd which showed 'Dev💖' in bold letters. It was actually a video call from him. A smile instantly spread across her face as she answered.

Dev's face appears on screen, a bit grainy but still bright with energy. He dressed in his practice jersey and shorts with cap on his messy hairs. Behind him the hotel room was shining with morning golden rays with the sound of the ocean faintly audible in the background.

"Good morning miss corporate" he greeted with grin "how's the first day prep going" he asked.

Prarthana laughs softly at his choice of words and replied "good morning... Well I think just making sure everything is perfect"

Dev leans closer to the camera as if inspecting her through the screen.  "You look great already. That outfit is a solid choice. But… are you sure you’re not missing something? he said with soft frown on his face.

Prarthana tilts her head, confused "missing something? Like what?"

"Like a smile" Dev's says his expressions softening. "You are going to be amazing baccha don't over think" 

Prarthana blushes a little and turns back to mirror, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "Thanks Dev, I just... You know how it is, first day jitters"

"Trust me, I get it" he says adjusting his cap. "But you’ve prepared for this. Just be yourself, and remember that you’ve earned your place there."

Prarthana nods, feeling his words sink in. She picks up her phone to get a better look at Dev. "What about you? Ready for practice?"

Dev smirks. "Always. But I’m more interested in hearing about your big day. You’ll have to give me all the details later."

"Only if you promise to give me the highlights of your practice," she counters, slipping on a pair of elegant heels that complete her look.
