"Ouch!"

"Mmmm"

"Will..... you release.. me...?" I said while gasping for air to breath.

"Shut up, will you." Tyler said while still holding me tightly. I patted his back just to make him realize that he is crushing me, but his grip tightened. Opposite reaction.

"Why didn't you told me?" He asked worriedly still clutching me in his arms. I patted his back again so that he give attention to my suffocation in his arms. He instantly released me and looked at me worriedly.

"Are you OK?" He asked me while watching me catching breathes.

"Hell! Are you OK, because I have a feeling that you should meet a psychaitrist." I yelled at him and started to walk towards office building. He came by my side with help of little running. "You know, you can ask me anytime. I am always there for you." He said while patting my head and I was looking at him with question mark on my face.

He came closer and kissed on my forehead, "Take care and don't hesitate to ask." While looking at his watch he murmured something and then went.

Here, I am still standing in confusion and looking in the direction he went.
What's wrong with this guy? What help I need from him?

I stopped thinking and started to walk again. As soon as I stepped inside, I felt others gaze on me. Some were of my department were looking at me with pitiful eyes. Some came to my side, patted my shoulder and said,"Don't worry, everything gonna be alright." I stared at them without getting any clue. What are they talking about? And where the bloody hell Tanya is?

I didn't knew what to say to them, instead I just smiled at them (nervously) and walked away.

What the fuck is this. People know something is wrong with me, but I don't know what something is wrong with me, but people know what is that something, which is wrong with me, and I don't know what is that something which other people know is that something which is wrong with me. Hell! What is wrong, me? people? something? that? which?

Fuck that something...

As soon as I reached lift, I hurriedly pressed the lift button. For few minutes, even the lift man was staring at me. What is happening here? All have gone insane or do I look like something, which is naturally impossible?

I stepped out of lift and walked towards Finance Department. Before I reached my desk, a hand landed on shoulder and I am pulled in gentle arms with a tight hug. This time its Avery. She slowly started to pat my head, then released me. The words she said after releasing me, have given me enough shock that were equivalent to Thor's thunderbolt.

"You will never think of such stupid things. It's a crime, promise me you will never think of it."

What? crime? What is she talking about? I was no longer confused then. Instead, I was scared. Much more scared.
