Two days later, I'm sitting at my desk in my office waiting for my boss. He enters through the door and he's looking like a geek god. Like always. To know that such a hot man is married with probably kids he never talks about makes me wonder how his life must be. No money-related problems, a hot wife, servants at his beck and call. How lucky.
My thoughts drift from him to Moretti. How I wish he were here. I wish I could talk to him about my father and my mental health. But after he left for Dubai, I haven't had a chance to talk to him. I deleted his number because I wanted to move on but I found myself stuck in a loop.
"Are you okay?"
And I came back to my reality.
"Yeah! Good morning Mr. Black. How are you doing today?"
He looked at me with a slightly worried expression and said "Good morning, I'm good. Are we ready for the meeting?"
"Yes." He never asks me 'how I am' not that I mind but sometimes it's nice. But he is not nice. He scolds me every chance he gets, and there's no escaping it.
"Let's go then, I have a ton of work unlike others"
As if you let me breathe ever. I'm his executive assistant which means I help him in planning and execution. But I often find myself making coffee for him which irks me a lot.

After the meeting,g we went to his cabin to talk about the meeting and discuss new ideas but he surprised me.
"How's your father?"
"He is well, for now."
"What do you mean by that?"
"His... One of his kidneys is totally damaged and the other is also.."
"Oh! What has the doctor recommended?"
"Kidney transplant."
"So when's the operation?"
"I-" This caught me off guard, what was I supposed to tell him that I have no money?
"We'll see, he's under observation as of now. So, the doctor will tell me when"
"That's good. He'll be fine. Don't worry."
"I'm gonna go now"
"Okay! See you on Monday"

I wanted to ask for his help but I couldn't. Not because of ego or embarrassment but because of the fact that he is a businessman. He looks for profit everywhere and I don't have anything to give. This reminds me of the incident with Jack.

"Sir, I will pay you back as soon as possible but please don't sell my house. It's my grandfather's property"
"Jack I gave you a lot of time, it's been three years and I need that land"
"Sir, please I'll give you anything"
"What can you give me?"
".."
"That's what I thought. You don't have anything but I want my money Now"

He had this cold expression on his face which sent shivers down my back. And I knew he would sell Jack's house. And he did. The house was sold and a lot of profit was made out of it. Jack was heartbroken but Mr. Damon Black was richer.

I went to the bank and met the manager, Mr. Kumar. But, he clearly told me, that my income was not enough for the loan.
"Why don't you take a personal loan?"
"It is not enough, is it?"
"It's not but if you can arrange some money from other sources and take a personal loan, it is possible"
"And the interest rate?"
"That's much higher than a normal loan but you're in dire need"
"Yeah, I'll let you know. Thank you" I shook hands with him and left.
On my way back home, it started raining. Drizzling. But I didn't care. I was thinking about the ways or sources to get money. But there was none.

The next morning, I got a call from Mr Black, he asked me to meet him in a cafe near my place. This whole ordeal was very odd but I had to go.

I saw him sitting in the corner doing something on his phone. He was still in his formal suit and there was nothing different about him but the whole scene, him sitting in a small cafe was picture worthy.
"Good morning Mr. Black"
"Hey! Have a seat."
"How are you?" I said
"Good."
"Is it something important sir? Why are we meeting at a cafe"
"It is important, but not work related that's why we are meeting in a cafe"
"Oh! What is it?"
"You need money right? For your father's operation."
"Yes."
"I can give it to you, the whole amount without any interest or payback"
What? Why? How? Multiple questions crossed my mind.
"How did you know? And why would you help me?"
"How? Because I saw you going to the bank. Why? Because you're my assistant"
"I'm confused. It's a lot of money sir."
"I know. And I know you don't have any resources to get it. But you can do a very simple thing for me and you don't have to pay me back"
It sounds creepy, but it is my only chance for my father.
"What is that?"
"Let me explain this whole situation to you. I will give you the money for your father's operation and you will give me pleasure as interest."
How dare he?!
"Do you even know what you're suggesting? I can't do this. You're trying to take advantage of my situation. You amuse me Mr. Black. And what about your wife!?"
"I don't have a wife. If you want money, and I know you do. You'll accept this offer. And if you don't by any chance, just know that I have many ways"
"I can't believe you, you're disgusting"
With that I stood up and left. I still can't believe the stone cold Damon Black asked me to be his mistress. I wanted to cry but I couldn't. I went to meet my father. He was sleeping and then I broke down in tears.
After five minutes the door to his room opened and his doctor entered.
"Hey! Are you okay?"
"Yeah!" I said while rubbing my eyes.
"Rya, you're father's health is deteriorating fast. We need to do something soon."
"Yes, I know I will arrange for the operation in two days. Just give me two days. Please" and suddenly I started crying again.

I will do anything, I can't lose him.
I will sell my body, soul, life, anything.
With this thought I decided to sell myself to the devil incarnated.
