Girl With Secrets

The Day of Their First Meet

Flashback:

Arnav was getting ready, as he was having an interview that afternoon in a well-known news channel. That's when Amrutha come to him. He sees her coming through the mirror and

Arnav: Di, what happened? Do you want something?

Amrutha (Di):(How should I say that I really want to go to temple now. But I think, he is going out somewhere.) Actually Arnav, I-I-I(stuttering)

Arnav: What Di?

Amrutha: I want to go to temple. So, can I?

Arnav who was getting worried by her sudden stuttering sighed relieved, but he was getting anger as she said she wanted to go to temple. He already knows which temple she is referring to. He was about to say something when his phone rang. As he sees the caller ID he sighs and

ON CALL:

Arnav: Yeah!!

Rohan: Bro! Actually, I called you because Di informed me that she wanted to go to temple and was going to ask you. But don't worry, I am going with her. I will be at home in 10 minutes, and I will take care of her. OK.

Arnav: Ok then. Come fast.

After the call he turned towards his Di who was now showing her innocent face and spoke

Arnav: Di, you are really good at showing your innocent face to me from childhood. Don't you think it's an old idea to use on me every time. But yeah, don't worry. You can go, but Rohan will be with you. Now don't show me any of your tantrums.

Amrutha: I know this is an old idea, but don't you think it will work every time on you. And don't worry about me I will be safe.

Arnav sighs and hugs her assuring that he will be there for her anytime. As he knows that why she wanted to go to that temple today.

Actually, Amrutha and her husband Sandeep had a love marriage, and they were childhood friends as well and he is a professor in a top-rated university. From childhood they used to go to that temple, as it was their favorite hanging spot. Sandeep also proposed her in that temple itself. They were literally on cloud nine when both their families accepted their relationship and within few months they got married. But things changed after marriage as he got an offer to work in America's well-known university, which was his dream to work there. So, Amrutha who was her biggest supporter made their families to understand his situation and nevertheless supported him to pursue his dream. She visits that temple where they spent most of their precious and memorable moments whenever she misses him too much. It's almost 8 months after he left, and he was planning to come last week but got caught up with some works and said he will come after 10-12 days. So Amrutha who was missing him so much was happy when he said he will come but sulked after learning that he couldn't make it.

After a while he saw Rohan's car and took Amrutha to the car and ask her to be cautious and careful. He then goes to his car to give his interview as his driver drove off.

He sat in a room where some artists were making him ready. But then the makeup artist, who was staring at him came forward to have a talk with him and started blabbing this and that while he was not giving a fuck about it as it was normal to him, as a CEO many girls drool over him for his money.

But he was taken aback when that girl was trying to touch him. He jerks her hand and glare at her. But she was still trying to flirt with him and then they heard a fake cough and turn to that direction.

Girl: Who the hel........

???: What are you doing here Miss.Lavanya? Didn't I say you to bring me a cup of coffee? But what the hell are YOU doing with this man?

Lavanya: Mam!! I....I....

???: I.. What? Now don't waste my time and bring me my coffee. GO(Almost making both of them flinch)

Lavanya: Ok mam.

Lavanya goes from there. Actually, running away from there frightening as she saw any ghost all of a sudden. After Lavanya left, that girl was about to leave when

Arnav: Thank you miss.

???: (Turning towards him and points index finger towards her) Me?

Arnav: Yep. Thank you for sending her away from me. She was actu- (But got cut off by her)

???: Sorry? I think you misunderstood me. I don't know you. And sorry for disturbing your moment but as she is my employee, she needs to follow my order.

Arnav: WHAT?? Isn't she a makeup artist??

???: Sorry but she isn't a makeup artist, and she is an employee working here. (She then notices his face) But wait what's wrong with your face? Don't tell me she did your makeup?

Arnav nods his head and then he looks into the mirror just to frown as his face was not good. Thanks to her makeup skills. But now-a-days which girl do not know how to makeup. After few seconds he sighs and was about to get up when

???: Wait! Lemme fix it.

Arnav: At least do you know how to makeup or just showing off??

???: If you give me 5 minutes then I will fix it or else I will leave from here. It's up to you.

She says it very confidently and turn him towards her and take tissues and wipe all the makeup he had and then she runs her hands on the equipments that were already spread across the table and finishes her job within 5 minutes and turn him towards the mirror.

During this time, he was noticing her every move as it's his first time when a girl is not looking at him with dirty eyes. And after she turn him towards the mirror, he saw that his face was looking good. Good will be an understatement as he was looking too good. He then turns towards her and

Arnav: Wow! You are really good at doing makeup. Are you a makeup artist?

???: Excuse me! I already said that the girl who just did your makeup before me is my employee. Then how can I become a makeup artist?

Arnav: Oh! Sorry! Actually, you done it too good so I thought... Nevermind, I am Arnav, CEO of-

???: Nice to meet you Mr.Arnav. But I really have work. So, please excuse me.

Arnav: Won't you tell me your name?

???: Sorry! But you don't need to. (She then leaves from there)

Arnav was dumbfounded by this. He never assumed a girl would talk like that with him. He actually like that attitude of hers.

Arnav: WHO ARE YOU MISS. MAKEUP ARTIST??
