Pakhi !!! my god, are you ok ? “ Kalpi asked as she took a good look at Pakhi. Her mascara was running down her face due to her crying, her lipstick was all smudged and her hair tousled wildly, “ Kalpi !!!! “ Pakhi said as she hugged Kalpi’s waist and cried even more. Pakhi was not the type of person who does good under pressure, “Shhhh, its ok…..Main hoon na “ Kalpi said as she patted Pakhi head and hugged her tightly. Kalpi looked at Pakhi’s table. Papers were scatted all around the table, the computer was switched on, and Pakhi was in a mess. “ Pakhi, come you sit there, at let me handle this “ Kalpi said. She helped Pakhi sit on the other side of the desk. Kalpi sat in front of the computer and looked at the mess on it. With no questions  asked, Kalpi got to work. After 3 hours, Kalpi completed the whole presentation. She looked up and saw Pakhi sleeping on the chair with her head on her hands on the table. Smiling, Kalpi quickly saved the presentation and woke Pakhi up and headed downstairs towards the car.
