Kalpi looked at the tall modern building in front of her with the sign that read Singhania Construction Company. Taking a deep breath, Kalpi made her way inside, “ Mr. Raghav Singhania ? “ Kalpi asked the receptionist. “ So how is the project for the Dutt project coming along ? “ Raghav asked Sammy, they were currently in Raghav cabin, discussing the upcoming projects, “ It’s going great, oh and Aditya Radi want to meet us tomorrow “ Sammy said, Raghav nodded and looked at the files in front of him. Just then a stedy knock sounded his door, “ come in “ Raghav said irritated, “ Knock…knock “ Kalpi said sarcastically as she entered Raghav’s cabin, Raghav got a shock and stood up quickly, “ oh you stood up for me how sweet “ Kalpi said sarcastically, “ what are you doing here ? “ Raghav said, still in shock, “ uhh well I told you that I will work for you for a month….remember ? “ Kalpi said, “ ahhhhh….yes…well do you have your resume ? “ Raghav said coolly and sat down, Kalpi handed Raghav her resume file, “ MBA in Business….wow “ Raghav said in a bored tone, “ so tell me Ms. Jadhav….why did you pick my company ? “ Raghav said coolly. Kalpi looked at Raghav and raised her eyebrows “ seriously ? your gonna play that game right now ? “ Kalpi said, Raghav sifted uncomfortably in his seat, “ Fine….well, I actually did NOT want to work here, but unfortunately the CEO of this company somehow….hmmm…how so I say this….demanded I work for him “ Kalpi replied sarcastically, “ I did not demand anything “ Raghav said in a tight voice, “ ohhh giving attitude are we ? remember Singhania you came to me “ Kalpi said as she leaned on his desk and looked at Raghav dead in the eye. Raghav handed Kalpi back her file “ the job is yours “ Raghav said not looking at her, “ and what is my job ? “ Kalpi asked again, Raghav smirked and looked back at Kalpi, “ you’ll be my PA from now on “ Raghav said, “ you mean for a month….fine, I can handle it “ Kalpi said, “ mind showing me where my office is…or my desk ? “ Kalpi asked, “ I’ll show you…” Sammy said as he got up and led Kalpi out of Raghav cabin. Raghav laid his head back on his chair and took a deep breath and let it out.

“ THIS IS SO EXCITING !!!! BOTH OF US WORKING TOGETHER “ Pakhi said excitedly, they were in the cafeteria for their lunch break, Kalpi smiled and nodded, “ Kalpu, where is your engagement ring ? “ Pakhi asked in shock and she grabbed Kalpi left hand,  “ Oh its at home….it was too big and sparkly “ Kalpi said as she took a sip of her coffee, “ but Kalpu…it’s your engagement ring “ Pakhi said, “ I know…and I don’t want to lose it…so that’s why. “ Kalpi said assuring Pakhi that it was fine. Just then Raghav walked into the cafeteria with Sammy, “ look what the cat dragged in “ Kalpi said rolling her eyes, “ I still can’t believe I’m engage to him “ Kalpi said shaking her head, “ Kalpu ? “ Pakhi asked, “ It’s nothing “ Kalpi smiled and drank her coffee. “ So everything is done ? “ Raghav asked as he went to the coffee machine and poured himself a cup of coffee, “ yup…now we just have to go and see the sight, so we need to plan “ Sammy said leaning against the table, Raghav nodded and turned and saw Kalpi laughing with Pakhi at something, “ looks like the letters that you sent worked after all. Just like you said “ Sammy said slapping Raghav back and smiling, Ragahv looked at Sammy at the corner of his eyes and looked back at Kalpi. Kalpi looked up and saw that Raghav was looking at her, “ you done ? “ Kalpi asked, “ yup. Lets go “ Pakhi said standing up, they were near the door when Pakhi spotted Raghav “ oh hi Sir.  Sammy “ Pakhi smiled shyly at Sammy. Sammy smiled at Pakhi, Kalpi stood beside Raghav and looked way “ Pakhi, mein chal “ Kalpi said and walked out before Raghav could say anything.

That night Kalpi was getting ready in her bedroom when Pakhi came in  “ wow !!!! Kalpu you look smoking hot !!! “ Pakhi said, “ Thanks, you wanna come along “ Kalpi asked as she fixing her earrings, “ where are you going ? “ Pakhi asked, “ well, one of Guru’s student got into Juilliard in the States, so Guru is throwing a party for her “ Kalpi asked, “ wow Juilliard !!! that’s so cool “ Pakhi said, Kalpi nodded “ so you wanna come ? “ Kalpi asked, “ I love too…but I can’t “ Pakhi smiled, “ Let me guess…Sammy asked you out ? “ Kalpi said as she slipped on her shoes, “ how did you know that !!!?? “ Pakhi asked in shock, Kalpi just shrugged “ Your using the car ? “ Kalpi asked, “ nope…Sammy will be coming “ Pakhi said happily, “ what a gentlemen “ Kalpi said sarcastically and smiled, Pakhi nodded. Just then Kalpi’s phone rang “ hello ? “ Kalpi said, “ Ms. Jadhav “ Raghav said, Kalpi rolled her eyes and replied, “ What can I do for you Sir “ Kalpi said in a bored tone, “ Ms. Jadhav I would like you to go back to the office and get me the Dutt file “ Raghav said smoothly. Kalpi was about to shout at Raghav but she kept calm, “ sure why not…is not that I have my own life anyway “ Kalpi said sarcastically, “ I’ll message you my address “ Raghav said and hung up, Kalpi looked at the phone “ no even a thanks, duffer Kalpi mumbled and headed out.
