"Hai" Sahaj squealed with a broad smile.
It took some minutes for Ragini to actually accept the fact that this guy in front of her.
Yup, Sahaj was her classmate during her UG. He was a huge trouble maker. And he hated her for no reason, tried everything to put her down in a way that she doesn't actually have any best friends. All thanks to him!!!

Sahaj: seems you are in huge train of thoughts about me.
Ragini:you, here?
Sahaj smiles:scared?
She found his smile very creepy. But, she wasn't scared at all.
Sahaj:I guess you don't know I am handling Darjeeling company. I am the CEO of Darjeeling branch.
"Through Nepotism" she thought. Now she actually get it. He was the niece of Reena Roy, the Managing director.
Reena is childless and married to a foreigner, who lost his life some year back.
Currently he came for the project. As tomorrow there would be sending the project to head quarters. One out of the 5 branch project would be selected.
Ragini:oh well, nice to meet you!!!
Sahaj:sure... well May be I would be transferred here soon. Pray that we work together.
Ragini just smiled:excuse me... I am getting late.
She moved. While he moved in front of her:wait.. don't you think you should please your boss.
That's when Samar came. He was noticing him. Somewhere he too found him creepy though he don't know him personally.
Samar:excuse me Sir...
Sahaj:yes,excused.
He was oggling his eyes at Ragini.
Samar:Ragini, let's go.
Sahaj:hey, new fling?
He asked Ragini.
Samar:be respectful while talking.
Sahaj:calling fling nowadays a disrespect?I don't think so. Between I am replacing your CEO in future. So don't you think you should be respectful while talking Mr. ...
He looks at ID card :Samar.
Samar:currently we aren't your subordinates.  But when we become one. You can expect it. Let's go Ragini!!
Sahaj:mind your tone I won't take 2 seconds to throw you both out.
Ragini just panicked as she didn't wanted Samar to face trouble because Sahaj's sole intention was to just degrade her.
Samar:you...
Ragini interrupts:I am sorry sir...and I am sorry on his behalf
Samar :Ragini... are you....
Ragini just blinks her eyes at him.
While he was just angry.
Sahaj:any way ..you both I am going to keep my eyes on you both. One more mistake and termination letter.
He moved.
Ragini:sir, if you don't mind can I say something?
Sahaj moved.
Ragini:keeping your eyes on us. Don't forget you have some responsibility to show towards your current branch.
As she looked at the employees who were lost and asking around for the head quarters.
Ragini:and about the future. You never know what's in the store!!!
He glares at her while Samar smiled and the left from there.

Ragini pats him:Samar.. let's work together no matter what. Even if we are thrown out?!
Samar:hey.. don't scare me
Ragini laughs: that's what you told sometime ago.
