Aashi announced where everyone will be working and with whom. Kriya, Nicole, Simmi and Vihaan were the four assigned with Aashi where their work will be to review the files sent over from the departments for final projects before they would be sent over to Swayam. Kriya squinted her eyes at Aashi. The poor girl gave a helpless, apologetic look. Both of them knew that was Swayam's doing.

"Everyone, get going now." She instructed. The four waited for others to leave and then followed Aashi out to her cabin.

"By tomorrow, each of your individual desks will be there with me in my cabin. Since I am Mr. Shekhawat's personal secretary, there will be many chances when you four will have the chance to work with him. With that, there will be times when there will be emergencies and I shall be away. During that time, you might be on your own and I trust you four to not mess up, understood?"

By then, they were inside her cabin. "His cabin is right next door and if you turn the shades of the curtain, it's actually see through. Therefore, none of you are to mess around. He should not be disturbed." She assigned them one file each. "Just one for today but starting tomorrow, you will have to do multiples. Accustom yourself accordingly."

When everyone, except for Kriya gave a terrified look, she smiled softly. "Relax girls..." Looking at Vihaan, she added, "... and guy. You'll start loving this job before you know it. Now let's get to work."

After sitting down at her desk, Kriya glanced a look towards Vihaan. He had a look on his face which made her sympathetic towards him. She understood that he must feel completely out of his comfort zone.

When the girls were away on errands and Vihaan was going over his file, Aashi walked up to Kriya. "Darling, have your medicine before he blasts on me." She handed it to her with a glass of water in other hand. Kriya chuckled and gulped it down.

"It was just a normal viral I got from the trip." She whined. "He worries too much."

"Correction, he loves you too much." Aashi winked and went back to her chair noticing Vihaan looked up towards them. After some time, Aashi got up to step outside. Since the girls were still out, Kriya decided to go talk to Vihaan.

"Hi, Kriya. We didn't have an official intro." She side holding out her hand.

He nodded and gave a firm shake. "Vihaan."

As if it were completely normal, she leaned back on the desk, facing him. "So, how do you like it here so far?"

"I'm not here to like it." He replied, earning a chuckle from her. "What?"

She shook her head, "Why are you here then?"

He was caught off-guard. "I..."

One of the best agents, huh? She thought, remembering Swayam's words. Not that she doubted, but she was sure it must have been a while since Vihaan had gone undercover. "I get it. Why would you tell me? You don't even know me. I get it." She continued her act.

"No, it's nothing like that. I'm just..." Oh, how bad he felt. He was so not doing well for his first day.

"Relax, Vihaan. Lighten up. I'm not offended or anything. I'm just joking. We all aren't here to 'like' it. I mean, it is work."

"Yeah, exactly what I meant." He grabbed on the chance to fix his slip-ups.

Nicole came up, holding two cups of coffee. "Coffee?" She offered. Kriya refused.

"Nah, I'm good. Not a fan of coffee."

Aashi come around as well, "More like never had a sip of it."
