Parking her Scooty in front of the tall, shining glass building, Khushi took a deep breath... She carefully locked it, and rechecked if it's locked or not, a habit drilled into her by her Babuji, who had gifted her the scooter just a few months ago for her birthday... She remembered the joy in his eyes when he handed her the keys, every family member was overjoyed specially Pranay and Niv, who were beginning her for a ride..Bua Ji was the only one who wasn't exactly thrilled... First of all,Bua Ji always worried that riding a scooter wasn't safe, especially for someone as clumsy as Khushi. And second, she felt spending so much money wasn't necessary. But Babuji insisted, saying it was time Khushi had her own ride...
Looking up at the building now, she watched the way the morning sun reflected on the glass, casting a soft, golden glow.. The sight made her heart race a little, and she tried to calm herself. She had been here before, yet today felt different—maybe because of her encounter with Arnav yesterday.. Just the thought of him made her cheeks warm slightly, and she took another deep breath, steadying herself...
Pressing the button for the elevator, Khushi waited, tapping her fingers lightly against the file she was holding.. She was heading up to the top floor, where AR—the new wing of company of Raizada Industries—was located... AR?!?! Does it mean Arnav Raizada? The name instantly brought his face to her mind, and she found herself recalling his small smile, the way he'd looked at her, and how he'd said, "I'll see you soon."
She shook her head quickly, scolding herself... Stop thinking about him, Khushi, Focus on work only... She murmured to herself..
The elevator doors opened, and she stepped in with a few other employees... Khushi was looking at others how professional they were looking compared to her.. She felt little self conscious and fixed her dress.. Just as the doors were about to close, a hand slipped through, making them open again.. She looked up and her heart skipped a beat as none other than Arnav Sing Raizada stepped in, dressed sharply in a black suit, with a gray vest..Her breath caught as he stood beside her, a slight blush appeared on her cheeks..
Arnav's face was tense..He didn't look at Khushi or even give her a polite nod. It was as if he hadn't noticed her at all..

Khushi couldn't help herself from stealing glances at him, studying the furrow in his brow, the slight clench of his jaw... She wondered what could be weighing on his mind...
When the elevator reached the top floor. Without a word or a glance in her direction, Arnav stepped out.. Khushi felt a little disappointed and unsettled seeing him ignoring her like this ..
