In his office

Distracted

"Are you listening?" Asked Mayank.

"Oh, sorry", she said.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, why would you think that?"

"You are distracted today. Is everything alright?"

"Yes".

"Talk to me Myra. What's wrong?"

"I met Nitin for a coffee", she saud.

"And?"

"And nothing. He also thinks that it wasn't me who took the money".

"He doesn't? Then why did he fire you?" He asked

"He didn't. I quit, because nobody believed me".

"I do", he added.

"Thank you for that. It was you who believed me when nobody else did", she said.

For the first time, she looked at him while he was driving her home. He is handsome, she thought.

"You would never do something like that," he said.

"Thanks", she said.

"Forget about Nitin," he said.

"Yeah..." She said faintly.
