SwaSan: My Boss

Part 15

"swara why this security all of a sudden? I mean over secure?"

"Well, the previous night after I left. Had an incident so had to keep and it's my responsibility to keep everyone safe in this building."

"Ohh, you could directly tell na, you're doing this for me. I know you care about my security " sanskar said with pride.

"Enough of your nonsense now, go do your work. You're not that important to me."

"Deny how much you want. But you have to accept only."

"Shut up and go do your work."

Later same day.

Swara is busy having a conference call while sanskar is waiting to tell her something eagerly but she's not paying any heed towards him.

Now 3 hours have passed and Swara finally finished her call and sat on the chair. On the other hand sanskar had already dozed off.

She called him several times but he didn't respond. Swara looked at him admiring, the only person who has so much patience with her and stayed for 3 hours.

She smiled looking at him and marched towards him where he was sleeping on the couch to wake him up. She patted his cheek several times but he didn't wake up.

At first she thought he was in deep sleep but when she continued to move him, he still didn't wake up and now her heart started beating faster than usual.

Some unknown fear took over her. Worry, anxiety and heavy breathing at the same time. Her voice began to shake and tremble. Sweat beads on her forehead as well as neck. Swara was on the verge of losing her sanity and getting panic attack.

Finally he got up "swara, swara. Calm down. I m fine"

He made her sit and gave some water. He sighed in relief that he was alright.

"Are you okay?" He asked innocently.

"What the fuck was that sanskar?" She shouted after drinking the water.

He went on his knees holding her hands. "listen, I want to tell you something, please, please, don't be mad at me."

"Speak"

"That was just water" he laughed. Swara was about to shout at him. But he held her hands again and made her sit.

"Ok ok, jokes apart. On a serious note I was just playing a prank, I wanted to make you realise how you feel when you get ignored but my plan got backfired. I m seriously sorry, I didn't know you'll get into such a state"

Swara just moved from the space and took a cigarette actually her stress level had increased and inhaled some smoke and felt some relief after exhaling.

"Sanskar, you seriously scared me. Please don't play such stupid pranks."

"But why you got so scared? I was just fooling around with you. "

"I was just...

"See I told you, you care about me and simply you denied. Huh!"

"Enough now. What you wanted to tell me? Since you waited for 3 hours, tell me what's so important?"

"Oh shit!" He jumped and looked at the clock.

"What now?" Swara asked him.

"Woh, actually I was supposed to meet a girl at 7 and had come to ask for your permission if I could leave early but after waiting and waiting, I fell asleep. Now that girl must have gone already"
