After almost a week Swayam found himself back at Sharon's doorstep.

"Swayam? What are doing here?" Sharon said surprised.

"I miss my girlfriend and wanted to meet her." He said.

"You have very bad timing. I was just leaving for work." Sharon said.

"That's today? I thought it was tomorrow." Swayam replied.

"Well it's today and I have to leave now." Sharon said.

"Actually Sharon I wanted to talk to you about something." Swayam said.

"Okay you have 5 minutes. Shoot." Sharon said.

"You know how you entered the dance competition and came third. You enjoyed it so much and it made you do happy." Swayam said.

"I remember that Swayam but I think you're just going in circles." Sharon said impatiently.

"Right. It's just that I thought after the show ended you would focus more on dancing." Swayam said nervously.

"I feel like it's a heavy topic and I really can't talk about this now. Do you want me to be late on the first day?" Sharon said.

"Of course I don't love but we will talk about this later." Swayam said.

"Alright. Now let's go. Don't you also have work to do?" Sharon replied.

"Ah yes. I'm really not sure how I'll be able to convince these people. They are dead set on their ideas and don't want any changes in them which frankly is not possible." Swayam said.

"I'm sure you'll convince them. Just be the charming self you always are." Sharon assured him.

"So you find me charming Sharon Rai Prakash." Swayam said leaning towards her.

"Not now Shekhawat. In a normal situation I would be furiously blushing but now I'm too stressed because I'll be late because of my boyfriend." Sharon said.

"And your boyfriend has a motorcycle which can reach any location pretty quickly." Swayam said.

"Not if my boyfriend is riding it." Sharon answered.

"Ouch Sharon. Your boyfriend is right in front of you, can't you be a bit gentle." He said.

"I don't think so. Can we leave already?" Sharon replied.

"After you." Swayam said and opened the door for her.

So they both left Sharon's flat with both of their heads buzzing with thoughts. Swayam didn't want to talk about this topic right now itself but it had been going on his mind for a long time and the more he delayed it, the more it would have made him restless. He knew that it would definitely lead to an argument even if it could be a small one but he had to do something about it. He had never seen anybody in his personal life working towards achieving their dreams. His father started working at a very young age to support his family while his mother had to stop working because she felt that was the best for the upbringing of the children. He himself had never particularly had something he dreamt about that he wanted to passionately fulfill. He couldn't just let Sharon throw her dream of being a dancer on the backseat like she has been doing.

Sharon on the other end was confused as to why Swayam to talk about this topic right now. She knew he only wanted the best for her but she made her decision after a lot of thoughtful thinking. The fact was even thought she started the managing job just as a source of income, over the course of time it became more than that. She enjoyed every aspect of it, even the neurotic deadlines. She was excited for today and it would be a good experience to work with children. As she thought about Swayam, she knew they had to clear out the talk. The more quickly a discussion is solved, the better it was.
