Riddhima

After a cup of coffee with Elisa, I walked towards my cabin.

I walked past, Mr. Perfectionist's, Big Door, which was a big deal.

I glanced at his room and saw him working, normal.

I shrugged it off, like it was not a big deal.

I stopped dead on my, when I was supposed to go inside my cabin.

'Had I forgot it? Stupid you! You are supposed to be with him' I dead panned myself.

'But, how do I do this, sticking up to him is not a piece of cake' I point out

'However, I know I have to, right?' that is another point to be noted.

'Great, this is going to be embarrassing' I am going to look so weird.

'Now, how am I supposed to be near him' I pondered on that fact.

After a lot of thinking, I took up the fact that, I had to submit a file of our merge project, which I had made yesterday itself.

Great, going in the Big Door is done.

How about staying there? If I am to keep up with him, I have to stay near, by possibilities.

I cannot think of it right now, going inside is a big deal, right?

I continued walking till my cabin door and pushed it open.

I search thoroughly in my cabin, rendering it dirty.

"I will clean up later" I told myself, well, who am I kidding?! I know, just how long I have to stay with him.

I took the desired file and jog the way out.

Just reaching the Big Door, made me nerve-wrecking nervous.

I chewed my inner lip, crunched the end of my dress.

'This was going to be easy, right?' I self-consoled myself.

I shakily took another step and another until I reached near enough to knock on it and get in. My legs felt as heavy as rocks.

I unwillingly, pushed my hand up and down. My oesophagus took a knot.

I finally, heaved a sigh and knocked on the Big Door.

"Come in" came a voice, terrifying the hell out of me.

'I do not belong here, I should probably go back' my terrified conscience said.

'No, you are to go in and protect your boss, for the sake of protecting' my brave conscience argued.

'I need to be cautious about it' my cautious conscience stated.

I had a different level inner war, about to go in or not, going on.

Am I going in?

"You can come in" came the voice a bit agitated.

Okay, I am going back, I am not made for this. And, who am I kidding?! I know I have to.

Taking a deep breath, I pushed open the door and I immediately regretted it.

He was just walking to open the door himself, oh just great, he looked a bit affected by my sudden entrance.

But he initially, went back to his seat.

"So, what are you here for, Ms. Riddhima?" he asked straight away.

My my, I am going to have a panic attack. My legs were trembling.
