Year 2018
P: The thing is.... Some of my colleagues are here and they will....
A: I didn't know you were such a scary cat. I mean you can just tell them the truth.
P: Abhi.... You don't know the field I work at. It's very competitive and all of them are finding an opportunity to backstab or pull someone down to rise up.
A: You don't worry unnecessarily for this. They won't do like that.
P: Am I working with them or you are working with them? I know them very well Abhi. I have a strong feeling they will definitely use this to spoil my image.
A: Firstly you don't get tensed now and show me them first. I will see what I can do for you.
P: They are just outside and it won't be a surprise if they are trying to hear what we are talking.
A: So this is why you are talking very softly.
Pragya nods her head as yes and he couldn't believe she can be this much scared for her colleagues.
Abhi was about to go towards the door when she held her hand.
A: Pragya, they won't eat you right?
P: Why are you not understanding it? It's just a matter of a day that you need to act as my boyfriend. Please help na....
"What is she telling? How can I act when I still think her as my girlfriend? What if I cross my limits?" he thought looked at her with confusion.
P: I know you will not cross your limit even if you act as my boyfriend. I trust you Abhi.
Abhi takes a deep breath with eyes closed in response.
P: Please Abhi.... I can't afford to lose my job now. I really love my job and....
A:Alright. I will help you but on one condition.
P: What's that?
A: Don't take advantage of me.
P:Abhi!
Abhi smirked and replied: You haven't explain to me how these three colleagues of yours will taunt us.
P: I will explain now.
Abhi then listens to her patiently and finally when she is done, he looked at her.
P: Why are you looking like that?
A: They sound dangerous now.
P: Dangerous na, that's how I am enduring their presence all this while.
A: I don't understand one thing. If you feel dangerous to work with them then why don't you work somewhere else?
P: Please don't ask me anything further.
A: But Pragya....
P: No Abhi. Now let's go, we have been in the room for quite sometime and from this itself they would have concluded that we are boyfriend and girlfriend now.
