Do Dil Bandhe Ek Dori Sey (ON HOLD)

Chapter 24

Hello... After one whole month! I'm really sorry! 

Excuse and ignore the mistakes. Enjoy! 

Nida's Pov

I yawned probably for the 10th time scribbling on the paper, since I got to work. Last night, Noor and Amna didn't let me sleep at all. The two were in Amna's room, watching some stupid show, singing in their horrible voice really loud. And not once did they stop. They slept after 3 and woke up with hoarse voices.

I made honey water for them and their voices are getting better. I put my head on the table and shut my eyes yawning. Just when I was falling asleep, my office phone rang. I quickly got up and answered the phone. "Hello?" I said and waited for the other person to answer.

"Morning Ms. Anwar." Abeer's voice hit my ears. "I want the files I assigned you two days ago in my office now. I hope they are completed." He said and I could feel a hit of smirk and victory in his tone.

Does he think I didn't do them? Well, I did them all Mr. Abeer! Take that!

"Sure sir, I'll be there in a minute." I said rolling my eyes.

"And please bring me a cup of coffee as you come." He added and my jaw dropped. Nukar hoon kya teri jo coffee bhi lau? I mentally facepalmed myself at my own stupidity. I am his nukar. Well, I work under him, so I kinda am his nukar.

"Sure, anything else?" I asked and he said no. I put the phone back on its place and got the files out. Walking out of my cabin, I spotted Noor and Amna, yawning and looking tired as hell. I shook my head and rubbed and eyes as I yawned looking at them yawn and went to the Café.

I poured the coffee in a cup and added the milk. "Dil kar raha hai, ke iss sheeni(sugar) ki jaga zehar dal doon." I stirred the sugar and put a lid on the cup and head towards his cabin.

I knocked on his door and heard a "Come in." I entered and saw him with his files literally all over his desk. His laptop was on the verge on falling and he himself looked like a hot mess. He had his vest on with the first bottons of his shirt unbuttoned. He looked up as I walked and frowned. "Place the files over here." He said not pointing anywhere. I frowned. "Where?"

"Right there." He said annoyed. I rolled my eyes and put the files in front of him. "Your coffee." I extended my hand with the coffee but he didn't look up nor nod.

"Sir, your coffee." I said a little annoyed and he looked up at me. I looked at the coffee and them him, indicating to take the coffee out of my hand.

He sighed and gestured me to put it on the table. I did as said and scanned his desk. Not a single part of the table was visible. All kinds of papers were all over the desk. "You may leave." he said sternly. I gave a slight nod and turned around. Just when I was about to open the door, his voice stopped me.

"Who are you going with?" he said and I frowned.

I turned around, giving a confused look as he got up and walked towards me bottoning up his bottons. "Going where?" I asked and he looked at me as if I did not belong on his planet.

"To the Ball?" he said more like a question.

"Ball? What Ball?" I asked.

"I am assuming you don't know about the Winter Ball then..." well duh! If I said "what Ball", then, I obviously don't know. Mentally rolling my eyes, I shook my head.

"Well let me tell you. Every year, around this month, we have a Winter Ball, where you go with a date. Formal party and a dance at the end." My eyes shot up at the date part. "It's basically a party that happens before the break." He finished and I stood there blank.
