Satan's Secretary(Mishaan)

chapter-3 The interview

Ruhaan critically looked at the girl sitting across from him. She was nervous, he could tell. Good. He liked it when people get intimidated by him. She was wearing a loose white shirt and blue ripped jeans and those ridiculous eye sore sneakers! Who dresses like that for an interview? And as if the bizarre dressing wasn't enough, she'd worn her hair in some kind of messy bun on the top of her head, and for the icing on the cake she had those stupid Harry potter glasses on, that were too big for her small, round face! All in all she looked... Cute. Cute? Why on earth would he think she looked cute...? he mentally chided himself for the bizarre thought, if anything, she looked ridiculous, laughable even!

"what's your name?"

"Mishti Ishan Khanna" couldn't he see that on her resume? Thought Mishti, bitterly.

"J'espe're que tu n'es pas aussi stupide que tu le regarded"

( I hope you're not as stupid as you look)

Mishti gasped! How dare he! The devil only smirked to this.

"Mai's je sais que vous etes aussi monstrueux que vous regardes, encore plus en fait."

( But I know you're as monstrous as you look, even more, in fact.) Said Mishti, giving her own smirk to him. Seemes like Mr Satan didn't like the taste of his own medicine, for he clenched his jaw and narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"So, at least you know how to speak the language" said Mr Satan, abrubtly changinig back to english. " Although, you look utterly stupid to me, then again my job description didnt require a model, did it? And I'm nothing if not generous, so miss khanna, this job is yours, if you're proved to be as apt at writing the language, as you're at speaking it. Go on to Mr Ahmad from HR department and show him your writing skills, if he's satisfied then you can come from tomorrow, and if not...well, then I won't have the...honour of meeting you again". And just like that, she was dismissed from his office.

" Generous my foot!" Muttered Mishti to herself, not caring if he heard her.

She started to say thank you to him, but somehow the words wouldn't come out...sensing this Mr Satan smirked again and said "save it Miss Khanna, if I want your appreciation, I will ask for it, besides you're not hired yet...so why waste it?" 

How self obsessed this man was! Thought Mishti and took her leave from Satan's cave. She'd hardly taken two steps when the devil spat the fire again "And miss khanna?"

"Yes" replied Mishti nervously, what does he want now?

" I'd expect you to dress a little... Shall we say..humanly? That'd be all. You can go now"

And what does she dress like? Aliens? There was nothing wrong with her dress! That self obsessed bas***d thought Mishti bitterly. If only she didn't need this job this badly she would've wiped that evil smirk off his face in no time! But she did need this job.

"It's all your fault" told Mishti to God.

"Of course it is" replied God sarcastically.

"Don't you go sarcastic on me now, okay? I will have to endure that devil, not you, so you stop talking!"

"You stop blaming" replied God and after that he put earbuds so that he didn't have to hear dear Mishti's sweet voice for some time. Even God needed some break, too!

Mishti went to the reception to ask where could she find Mr Ahmad so she could 'show him her writing skills'. The cute receptionist beamed at her and asked how did her interview go "well, it was as good as you can imagine considering Satan himself was conducting it." Replied Mishti and realized it was too late to take her words back. Damn! Why does she forget when to shut her mouth! But the cute receptionist only smiled at her kindly. bless his soul God, prayed Mishti for him graciously. 

"If Mr Rajvanshi has sent you to Mr Ahmad then you're almost hired. Congratulations miss Khanna"

" you can call me Mishti, Miss Khanna seems too formal" said Mishti "what's your name BTW?"

"Veer" replied the cute receptionist, he was blushing hard, it was apparent that the poor guy has crush on her. Mishti didn't mind it, he was kinda cute and she might consider going out with him, if he asked her.

Veer gave the details of the whereabouts of Mr Ahmad to Mishti and she went to her next obstacle.

It seemed only Mr Rajvanshi possessed the uncanny ability to transform himself into Satan, because her second interview with Mr Ahmad went pretty easily and finally Mishti was hired in Rajvanshi and sons as 'Satan's secretary'. If only it were Mr Ahmad who needed a secretary, then Mishti would've been the happiest girl in the world, but alas! Everything comes with a price, and she had to pay the price of enduring Mr Satan's company! She supposed it was fair,and Mishti was nothing if not fair.
