Meera's P.O.V continues......

Talking about Papa brought immense sorrow in me. Didi kept saying 'I am very sorry Meera! I didn't mean to bring back the hurt in you!!' She apologized. I was not upset about Didi trying to know about my past, but all that pent up feelings were making their way out.

'It's okay Didi, even if you had not asked me to tell about my past, I would cry whenever I recollected!' I said wiping my tears and clearing my nose with the tissues that Didi brought for me from the dining room 'What hurts me more is, you know Didi, it's that I am lonely! I have nobody whom I can say, he or she is mine!!' I said and vent out my emotions on Didi's shoulder.

'Shh!! It's okay, I am here for you, don't you think so?!' Said Didi caressing my back.

'Yes...!' I replied nodding my head too.

'I am always there for my beautiful young sister, isn't it?! And....and if I am not wrong you even have your Mister Boss, Rahul Oberoi!!' Said Didi

I was suprised to hear the same thing from Didi too. 'What?! How can you say that Didi?!' I asked her leaving the cozy, comfortable shoulder of Didi and was sniffing in.

'I could see it in his eyes when he was here!!'

'No...no...not at all Didi!! He's a very angry, unpredictable man! Even though I am working for him from almost four months, I still feel like it's my first day in office daily!!' I said what I truly feel about my boss 'And also Didi, I never felt like he cared for me!!'

'You are mistaken my dear sister!! Why do you think he came here? I'm sure he did not visit to drink some tea or water?!'

What Didi said truly made some sense.

No I can't accept him....my life is not like any other normal girl!!

'I am feeling too sleepy Didi! Shall we sleep now?!' I tried not to entertain any further discussion about my boss.

'Come on Meera, don't spoil the fun!' Didi tried to make me talk further about Mister Rahul.

'No Didi!! Please I do not wish to talk anything about my boss and also my life is not what it looks like!!' I gave Didi some hint.

'If you think that your Uncle will come for you and take you away!! Then you can give a formal complaint in the police station about that man in advance!' Didi suggested.

'Didi, the problem here is not that simple! I don't even know who my Uncle is? Where he lives? Nothing!! All I know for now is that there is someone named Raahil who's behind me and wants me dead!!' I ultimately revealed my secret, partially to Didi.

'Meera you are truly scaring me now! Who's Raahil now and why does he want you dead?!'

'I myself have no idea about who he is?! May be he's my uncle in disguise? Im not sure of anything yet, I only know that he's behind me and everyday I wake up with a feeling that it's my last day on Earth!!' I gave Didi some information about Raahil. I don't know if she would believe the truth. Anyways she doesnot need to know anything further about my life. I suddenly felt over protective about my own life.  I never was used to share my feelings with anyone except my Nanny and I began feeling like I was losing my strength. I was happy living in the shell that I built around for myself.

I told about myself to Pam Aunty...of course some of it and now Didi....the less they know, the more it's good for me!! I do not wish to get out of that shell for now...

Switching off the lights, I banked on to one side of the bed saying 'Good night Didi! Don't want to be late to office or else my boss will again yell at me'

'Okay good night Meera! Remember one thing that one day you will realize how much Mister Rahul loves you!!' Said Didi

'Let's see...good night!' I don't like to entertain any thoughts about anyone and keep up my hopes of spending the rest of my life thinking that I'll have a normal happy life.

I have very limited time and in that I have to save maximum amount of money for my Nanny's daughter.....I need to keep up with my promise for all the sacrifice she did in raising me...

With the thoughts still active I suddenly fell asleep and opened my eyes when the alarm was ringing at six in the morning.

'Good morning Meera!' Didi wished me when I just switched off the alarm.

'Good morning Didi!' I said standing up to rush to the bathroom.

'Meera, if I hurt your feelings last night, I am very sorry my dear! Please ignore all my rubbish talk about your boss! Okay! I withdraw my words and I wish we continue our friendship like before!!' Said Didi.

'Yes Didi I am not upset about anything and I am glad we are friends forever!' I said giving her a hug reaching to her side of the bed 'if you hug me and spend all your emotion here then what will your fiancee think about me!! I'm sure he must be desperately waiting to hug you and do what not..so keep that emotion reserved for him!' I said with a naughty smile.

'You naughty girl!' Didi said patting on my butt.

I tried to cheer her up using some of the information I gathered while watching movies. We both had some bread in the morning with milk and jam after taking bath 'Thank you so much Didi for spending time with me last night! I don't know how I can give return to all the favour you have been showing me right from the day I stepped into this City' I said.

'if you really wish to give return then you need to go with me to my hometown and help me in there! I'm going to book tickets today for both of us...all you have to do is convice your boss, convince him to grant you leave! That's it! Pretty simple isn't it?!' Said Didi wearing her sandals.

It's the most difficult part Didi...how can I convince him Didi...he won't listen to anyone...

I just smiled locking the door and we both walked out of the main gate. I and Didi parted ways from there to reach our respective offices.

'See you tonight dear sister!' I heard Didi shout from a distance. I just waved turning back. The uncertainty regarding my leave application kept bothering me through out the journey to office.

'Sir may I know if I can talk to you about something personal?!' I enquired as soon as I saw him in the cabin. My previous day's experience made me ready to frame the question properly before talking directly.

'Not now Miss Trivedi! Later!' He replied.

Whole day I tried to ask him if I could get ten days leave to attend Didi's marriage, I was not even allowed to tell him about my need for leave. Whenever I approached him, he either walked away from there or was surfing something over his laptop. It appeared as if he was avoiding me intentionally but I cannot confront him, he's the boss.

I'm totally caught up in between Didi and Rahul sir.....she wants me to attend her marriage, while he is not even giving me a chance to request for permission to take leave.....what do I do now?!
