AKSHU's POV: (One week later)

"Students, ten minutes break!" I called out to the energetic bunch in the dance class. They immediately sat down on the floor, chatting and scrolling through their phones, grateful for the short pause.

With a tired sigh, I dropped into my chair, digging into my bag to pull out my phone. I checked the screen, "No missed calls, no new messages." A frown tugged at my lips as I ran a hand through my hair. It's been a week since Veer left for his business trip. He's coming back tomorrow, but we hadn't spoken since this morning. Maybe he's tied up with meetings or wrapping up work.

Just as I was about to put my phone away, it buzzed with an incoming call. I glanced at the screen, confused by the unknown number but decided to pick it up anyway.

"Hello?" I answered, curiosity clear in my voice.

"Hello, Akshara Ma'am. Good morning," a woman's voice greeted me on the other side.

"Good morning. May I know who's speaking?" I asked politely, still unsure who it was.

"Ma'am, I'm Shefali, the receptionist from Singhaniya Empire. I've called to make an urgent request," she explained, her tone growing more anxious.

"Okay, what's the matter?" I leaned forward, sensing the importance.

"Ma'am, there's an important meeting file in Veeranshu Sir's office, and we need it for a critical meeting today. Could you please bring it to the office?"

I paused for a moment, thinking it through. Only Veer and I had access to his private office at home, and this deal was important for the company.

"Alright, I'll get the file and bring it over," I finally said, knowing it had to be done.

"Thank you so much, Ma'am. We really appreciate it," Shefali said, sounding relieved.

I stood up and clapped my hands to get my students' attention. "Class is over for today, everyone! I'll see you tomorrow. Bye, love you all!" I waved to them as I quickly grabbed my bag.

Stepping outside, I noticed the car waiting for me, just like Veer had arranged. He'd been very particular about the driver not leaving my side, always worried about my safety. I smiled, feeling a warm glow in my heart. He's always so thoughtful. I love him so much.

The drive home was short, and as soon as I reached the mansion, I headed straight to Veer's private office. I found the file Shefali mentioned, carefully placing it in my bag. Before leaving, I decided to change. I didn't want to look out of place in front of Veer's employees.

I quickly pulled out a red saree, the one Veer always complimented me on. After a quick touch-up in the mirror, I felt more put together. Satisfied with how I looked, I grabbed the file and made my way to the office.

On the way, I tried calling Veer. The call didn't go through, and I noticed his phone was off.

"Seriously, Veer? You can't switch on your phone for five minutes?" I muttered, feeling a mix of frustration and concern.

With a deep breath, I focused on the road, knowing I'd see him tomorrow. But a little voice in my head still wondered why he hadn't called back.

Akshu reached the office, her heels clicking softly against the marble floor as she made her way to the reception desk. The receptionist, Shefali, looked up and smiled politely.

"Ma'am, thank you so much for bringing the file. Veer Sir's private cabin is on the 30th floor. You can take the file directly there," Shefali said, pointing towards the elevator.
