Falling in love is always easy, isn't it? Realising and accepting those emotions on the other hand can be very hard for some people.
Love can happen without a reason but you can find thousands of stupid reasons if you want to hide and deny it.

I entered his office with my game face on. I can feel that his office is more than spacious but my eyes got fixated on his presence. He was busy looking through a file on his desk and yet to see me.
"What is it?" he asked not so gently continuing his work.
"Sir your new secretary," Julie replied meekly. Even I had trouble hearing her.
"Speak up Ms. Johnson, I don't pay you to whisper in front of me," he remarked coldly. I rolled my eyes ignoring the tingles shot through my body when his voice increased a tone. Even his harsh tone has a effect on me in a good way which is bad, really bad. I looked at Julie to see her getting more nervous.
I decided to introduce myself, "Avi Gupta, Mr. Raichand. Nice to meet you again," I greeted him in a steady voice. Glad my voice didn't betray me.
He lifted his head in a jolt with a soft surprised look but within a second it turned blank. His eyes traveled to my hand and he silently assessed the wound. He stared back at me with a rigid expression and I looked back without blinking straight into his silver eyes. Julie cleared his throat and he averted his eyes going back to his work with a tight jaw.
"I told you to come back when you are fine Ms. Gupta. I expect my employees to obey orders," he stated coldly signing on the papers he was checking.
"Of course Mr. Raichand, I am feeling fine now. It's a small wound so you don't have to worry," I replied looking at my hand.
He gave me a humorless dry chuckle looking at me. I knew instantly that he was going to say something harsh and I prepared myself.
"I don't worry about my employees Ms. Gupta, my only concern is work. I don't want you to create fuzz over your injury here," he said gripping his hand in a fist tightly. Is he trying to state remind that I am just mere employee or he convincing himself to hide his concern?
"Like I said, I am fine Mr. Raichand," I said stopping myself from smiling. He narrowed his eyes at my lips and averted his gaze to Julie. Looks like I got busted.
"Did you introduce her to everyone?" he asked her and she nodded in reply. He raised an eyebrow in a demanding way at her.
"Yes sir, I gave her a tour and introduced her to everyone," Julie replied fiddling with her fingers. Wow! He really has an attitude. Why not? He owns this organization.
"You can leave Ms. Johnson," he dismissed her and she left immediately without wasting any second. I stared at the closed door and then my eyes traveled around. His office is a theme of black and white with a wide desk. To the left there is a L shaped sofa and a open shelf in front of it with books and some files. It looks classy and beautiful.
