*Picks up the phone* Heyy Mata Rani, please Shaurya ho, said Mehek happily. Oh, Kanta Chachi... Chachi mera interview bahut acha gaya and I am waiting for a call, exclaimed Mehek. In the middle of her call with Chachi, Shaurya called Acha Chachi, bye...
Ms. Mehek Sharma... Mehek felt a shiver down her spine after hearing the deep voice that sounded very familiar. Ye... yes sir, replied Mehek while holding her excitement. I wanted to congratulate you that you have got the job. I was impressed by you. First of all, you knew what I liked, and Rissoto was as expected. Second of all, your dessert was amazing, the way you had made the Tuxedo Truffle was very well plated and tasted extraordinary. And finally, I feel like we bonded, said Shaurya with a smile on his face. Thank you, sir, I'm glad you liked all the dishes I had prepared, happily replied Mehek. Ms. Sharma on Monday I need you at the restaurant sharp at 9 am, am I clear? said Shaurya while he clearing his throat. After Shaurya cut the call, Mehek yelped with joy, YAYYY!! MUJHE PATA THA YEH JOB MUJHE MIL JAYEGI!!, exclaimed Mehek with a big smile on her face. That night Mehek could not sleep at all thinking about her first day at White Chillies.
*Monday morning*
Mehek woke up at 7 and got dressed up in black formal pants and a lovely white shirt with a lace neckline and black heels. She wore subtle makeup which made her even more beautiful. She got in her car and drove to White Chillies only to realize that she is half an hour early. She looked at her watch and realized, I'm early what am I going to do. I know I still have time I'll go get some coffee. She drove to get her coffee and reached the restaurant 2 minutes before it opened. She saw Shaurya pull up to the restaurant and she greeted him, Good morning Shaurya Sir. But to her surprise he completely ignored her as he was on a call and seemed to be stressed and upset. Mehek entered the restaurant and put away her things and went to see Shaurya. *Knock knock* she knocked at Shaurya's office door. Sir, may I come in, said Mehek but Shaurya was not in a mood to talk with anyone. Can't you see I'm busy, shut the fricking door and go away, shouted Shaurya. Tears trickled down her cheeks, I'm sorry sir 😐, she said with a breaking voice while she closed the door and ran away. After realization hit Shaurya he patted himself on the cheek and said, Wahh well done Shaurya Khanna pehle din hi rula diya. Tanya, may I have Ms. Sharma in my office.
Yes sir, you called me, said Mehek while avoiding his gaze. I'm sorry Mehek I know I was rude. I didn't want your first day to start like this, Shaurya said guiltily. It's okay sir, I shouldn't have bothered you, replied Mehek with a smile. But still, I'm sorry. Shaurya held the door for Mehek as they went outside to join the other staff members. So as you all know the custom of mine tonight I have kept a party because we have gotten a New Head Chef after so much looking. I have to say we all are very glad to have you in our team Mehek, the party is at the restaurant itself and you all have to come, happily said Shaurya. Now everyone get back to work.
*After a successful day Mehek left the restaurant and went home to get ready for the party*
Mehek dressed up in a backless black dress that was just above her knees, with straps on her shoulders and a strappy back. It also had a deep V neck and she wore black suede high heels. She did beautiful eye makeup, applied red lipstick and fake lashes. She looked like a breathtaking dream. I hope I didn't do much, Mehek said nervously. She got in her car and drove to White Chillies. As Mehek walks in she is greeted by someone very familiar. Shruti? thought a shocked Mehek.
Hi Mehek, I'm Shruti glad to see that White Chillies has a very beautiful Head Chef, said Shruti with a dirty look. Mehek thought, What is she doing here I thought her chapter was long closed? Hi Shruti the pleasure is all mine... said Mehek with a fake smile. Shaurya who saw Mehek talking to Shruti walked up to them and said, Mehek excuse my bhabhi, please come on in, it's your party and you're standing here not fair, said an annoyed Shaurya. Shaurya got a hold of Mehek's hand and kissed the back of it lightly. Bhabhi?? Thought Mehek in her mind as she walked in while holding Shaurya's hand leaving a jealous Shruti behind. You look gorgeous Mehek, I have picked the right Head Chef for my restaurant, said Shaurya while Mehek blushed. Thank you sir, replied Mehek while smiling. Please call me Shaurya whenever you're with me, but in the office I'm sir, he said with a wink. Understood Sir... I mean Shaurya, Mehek whispered. Hello everyone thank you all for coming, said Shaurya who had taken the centre of stage... if I say ajj main thoda emotional hu toh isme kuch galat nehi hoga because after so long we have finally found the PERFECT Head Chef, Shaurya said while asking Mehek to take his hand and come on stage. As you may all know this is Mehek Sharma, our new Head Chef and I could not be happier to say that we have found the Perfect one for the restaurant and myself... to assist me of course, what did you all think? he said while laughing 😅. Mehek was upset that Shaurya didn't say what she wanted to hear.
While Mehek was standing alone in the corner an Adonis walked up to Mehek. He was wearing a black tuxedo... which was sharp-looking, and fitted well. It was something that made her a bit nervous as he stood beside her. Still, it fit well, it made him look very handsome, and he had perfectly gelled up hair. His body was strongly built. Hi I'm Rahul, naam toh suna hoga 😋. I'm a waiter at White Chillies and you are? I'm Mehek Sharma... said Mehek who giggled a bit. Ahh, the Head Chef, nice to meet you...if you don't mind can I ask the beautiful lady for a dance?, said Rahul while having his hand out. Shaurya stood at a distance and watched them while fuming with jealousy. Rahul and Mehek walked up to the dance floor and started to waltz slowly. Shaurya watched intensely from a distance while Rahul took the chance to whisper something in Mehek's ear making her laugh.
Shaurya walked up to them and asked... Rahul do you mind if I talk to my head chef for a brief moment? Sir I mean we're in the middle of a dance I think it could wait, replied Mehek. Shaurya grabbed Mehek by her arm, I need to speak to you now!!, Ms. Sharma.
Precap
Shaurya took Mehek to an isolated hallway of the restaurant to confront her... and Mehek asks Shaurya what he wants to talk about.
