Landing the dream

The screen opens up to a huge office complex.

"Khanna PR firm"

A girl was shown entering with lots of files and a coffee cup in her hands.

She walks towards the receptionist and keeps her files down, sighing.

Girl(making faces): Ms. Khanna aa gayi kya?

Receptionist: Haan.. Preeta.. And she's waiting for you..

Preeta(narrows eyes): Aur kuch?

The receptionist leans close to her.

Receptionist(whispers): Aur woh bohot sade hue mood mein hai.. 😂

Preeta(widens her eyes): Not helping.. Srishti.. 😂

Srishti(laughs): Pata hai.. Bas warn kar rahi hoon..

Preeta shakes her head and picks up the coffee and files and goes towards the cabin.

It was a huge glass door. Preeta loved being there, because that was the only cabin that was air-conditioned. 😂

".. Warna boss kisko pasand hai"

Preeta knocked on the door and went inside.

Her boss was busy cleaning her nameboard. Preeta rolled her eyes.

Her boss kept the nameboard aside and Preeta looked at it.

It was shining brightly, unlike her boss. 😂

"Ananya Khanna"

One of the names, Preeta hated.

Preeta(sweetly): Mam? Maine saari files check karli hai.. Aur aapke liye bhi coffee laayi hoon..

Ananya takes the coffee cup from Preeta and looks at the files.

Ananya(smiles): Impressive Preeta.. Good work..

Preeta(hesitant): Mam.. Mujhe aapse kisi baare mein baat karni hai..

Ananya(confused): Bolo?

Preeta: Mam.. Mein yahaan kaafi saalon se kaam karti hoon and.. I work very hard to complete the tasks on time..

Ananya(sighs): Aur tumhe lagta hai.. It's not being acknowledged?

Preeta(instantly): Nahi.. Bilkul ho raha hai.. But.. I would like to do more.. Mein aur contribute karna chahoongi..

Ananya: Ready for a new challenge? Are you?

Preeta(excited): Yes..

Ananya smiles at her and leans back on her chair with her coffee mug.

Ananya(questioning eyes): Dekho.. Preeta.. You are very talented.. But.. Where do you keep your ketchup?😂

Preeta(shocked): Sorry?

Ananya: You heard it right..

Preeta(nervously): In the fridge..

Ananya(glaring): Aur woh kyun?

Preeta: Kyunki aisa pack pe likha hota hai..

Ananya: Are you sure?

Preeta nods in no. Ananya sighs.

Ananya: Dekho.. You are intelligent.. But.. A good PR executive digs in the information.. Yeh jaane ke liye ki.. Agar koi cheez hoti hai toh kyun hoti hai? 😂
