I put on a black hoodie over my white tank top and some cash in my pocket as I walked outside. ' Mom, I will be back soon ' I called out to her. Behind me I think I heard Alia saying ' chodona Di! Kya farak padhta hai, it's a great company, krlo accept..' But I didn't paid any heed to her words. She's still immature one. How can I accept? What if there's some mistake...I need to go talk and clear it out.
I took a cab and gave the driver the address, which by the way he already knew. No one in this city was unaware of this top most company for pharmaceuticals " K Sales ". Throughout the way I was planning what and how I will talk to them. Clearly I was a bit annoyed. Such a huge company, still they are so irresponsible of appointing someone who's not even applied? How this company reached its heights? I don't want to work in such a dumb company. I wonder how Pari tolerate working with such people!
Finally I reached and paid the driver, it was a three floor glass building that was immaculately designed. The site left me awestruck. After moments of admiring the beautiful structure, I moved in and towards the receptionist.
' Excuse me, who's the head here? '
I asked her in my over confident tone.
' Mr. Kian Mehra..what is your query Ma'am? ' she asked politely, which calmed me down a bit. Guess, not all the employees here are dumb.
' actually I wanted to have a word with him, there seems to be some misunderstanding ' I answered her.
' Do you have an appointment Ma'am? ' she enquired.
' no I don't..but you see..this is quite important and urgent ' I told her while playing with my fingers absentmindedly.
' Am sorry Ma'am but in that case, you might have to wait..Sir is in a meeting at present ' she told me again in her sing song sweet voice. But that won't calm me anymore. ' look ' I told her a bit rude as I was growing impatient. In no way am gonna wait for this man for something which is completely his fault. Already I am tired from all the shopping Khushi dragged me into and I have no energy left for all this drama. Also I was so hungry!
' is there a problem? ' a lady interrupt us in short jeans skirt and red shirt. Her shoulder length hair were straight and left lose. She looked amazingly pretty and her voice was beautiful as well. I wondered if everyone here has beautiful voice.
' yes Ma'am, this lady here wants to meet Sir, she says it's urgent and important. She has no appointment. ' the receptionist told her the long story short.
' Hi! I am Piyu ' the girl turned towards me and said with a smile while offering her hand.
' Kyra ' I smiled and shook her hand.
' if you don't mind, you can tell me what's the matter? I can pass on your message, I work as  head of the department here ' she told me politely.
I was looking at her when I saw a guy eyeing me curiously from behind. What was with this firm and it's employees? I glared back at him.
' Actually, I got this appointment letter this morning, I think maybe there's some mistake, because, I haven't applied here.' I told her while handling her the letter. She examined it and then said ' there's never been such a mistake even from our side....' she started but then that guy called her ' Piyu! ' I was sure now this was the one employee who did something wrong and therefore was eyeing me. I glared at him angrily again. While the lady named Piyu turned around at his voice. ' Can I have a word with you? It's quite urgent ' he told her. She apologetically excused herself and I politely smiled letting her know that it was ok. She went to him and he whispered something to her. She now looked at me suspiciously. What the heck was going on here. I was now completely irritated. She then called someone and talked in a hushed tone. Then she came towards me and said ' you can go upstairs, third floor on the right, Kian will be waiting for you ' she told me in all professional tone. The friendly sweet voice was gone. I wonder what that stupid guy told her against me that within seconds she changed her attitude towards me. Nevertheless, I smiled her thankfully. And went ahead towards the stairs. There was a lift, but I was too embarrassed to use it. Already I was getting a a lot of unwanted attention here. I reached the third floor and turned towards the right as directed. There was an office with big bold letters ' Kian Mehra ' written on it. I took a deep breadth and sighed. I knocked on the door and entered.
