In his office

I love you

Myra couldn't stop smiling. Those events from last night entered her mind, daydreaming all day she blushed every time.

"Please tell me, you are not under Mayank's spell", came a voice filled with amusement.

Myra jerked and looked at Chetan, "What do you mean?"

"You are sitting alone, smiling and blushing, your file is yet to be completed, your concentration has waved you goodbye. So let me ask you again, do you like Mayank?" He asked.

Myra turned crimson," Um.. I".

"You bully Chetan, stop troubling my employee", entered Mayank giving a dreadful look to his friend.

Unaffected by his friend," No wonder you visit my office everyday. I am too sad, you have never come to meet me like this".

"Chetan, stop it", he cried.

"I'll leave you lovebirds alone, see you later", he winked and left Myra's cabin.

"I am sorry about him, Myra", said Mayank.

"I love you", she said.

Mayank was speechless, he looked into her eyes, not believing his ears.
"What did you just say?"

"I love you. You were the only one who believed me.
You were the only one when the world turned against me. Your support has created a new hope to solve this mystery. I can't thank you enough", said Myra.

Mayank moved forward, took her hand," I have not done anything for you. You proved your loyalty long ago in Nitin's office. I knew he could trust you blindly. So its all you. Lastly, are you sure you are not saying these words because you feel obligated?"

"I am sure, I love you 100%".

Mayank took her in his arms and kissed her.
"I can't tell you how long I have waited for those words. I love you so much", he said.
