SAMEER
A rambunctious shrieking sound of the alarm clock woke me up.Ahh!A yelp came out of my mouth as soon as I sit up and I felt my head hammering with pain.I pressed my head with my hands.Switching off the alarm I got down from the bed and found a glass of honey water.Who put it here? For some moment I got confused then I realized who kept this. My dearest wife.And I remembered last night's incident too. Siya's and my fight. Siya got angry with me because I promised her that I will take her on a date. But for some reason, I forgot. Then we had an ugly fight last night. How could she say that I gave more importance to my work than her? In my life other than my Pitaji and Maa sa she is the most important person to me.I have to reconcile with her at any cost. I can't live without her. She is offended by me but I know how to melt her heart.I also remembered last night how Naina made me feed with her hands. Other than Maa sa no one feed me ever. Neither Siya. But she did. And to my surprise, I didn't protest. Don't why? Maybe I was drunk that's why.Shoving away all the memory of last night.I went inside the closet took my towel and walked to the bathroom to take a warm bath.After freshening up I changed myself into my suit and walked out of the closet to my bedroom.I gulped the honey water and then finished it in one go. I went to the dining room and found my breakfast ready on the table. So She has made these.Good!Yes! Indeed, I don't like her and her mere presence but I like her food. She has some magic in her hands. She made food just like my Maa sa. I looked everywhere but didn't find a trace of her. Must be in her room.That's great.After finishing my breakfast I left for my office._________________________"Bro. What happened? Why are looking like dead fish?" Puneet came to my cabin and sat on my front chair of mine."Fight with Siya," I told him working on my computer."As usual. Why does she love to fight with you so much? Seems it's become her habit. You guys fight 5 times a week.""And the rest of the days pass away in sorted out. If relationships are like this then I'm happy that I'm single."Puneet huffed with frustration. I can understand the reason behind his frustration. He can't see me in pain. My buddy.I stood from my chair and went towards him. "You won't understand. Cause you are single now. When you also have a girlfriend and then you'll understand the sweetness in these fights."I told him patting his shoulder."Listen, bro. I can't understand this type of thing. I don't understand from where you feel the sweetness in these things?" He said making an annoyed face while rolling his eyes."Okay, alright. You don't have to understand this love matter. You just focus on your work. The interview is in two days." "I can't take that headache, so you have to handle it by yourself. And Siya will be there with you as well."I came back to my chair and again start my work."Yes, that's why I'm Worried. We both don't get along well. She doesn't listen to me. I'm the COO of this company. But I have no value in her eyes. You are the reason. That She thinks highly of her."He let out his all frustration on me. And I was listening to his blabbering reluctantly."Are you done?" After listening to his all complaints I asked. And he sends a deadly glare at me."I hate you." Saying that he left from there. And I smiled at his childish act. He always does that. He has been grown-up but his childish act has never gone. That's why I love him a lot. He never argues with me. He always understands me and stays beside me on my good and bad days.I went to Siya's cabin at lunchtime."Siya, Babe. Please forgive me. I know I did a mistake. But can't you forgive me once? I promise I'll never forget any of my promises." I took her hand on mine and said making a cute face. I could my best."Okay! But it's the last time. And if you ever forget about what you have promised, I'll never talk to you ever."She said and hugged me.Huhh! Thank God! She agreed.After 2 daysNAINAToday is my interview day. I'm so so nervous. It's the first time that I'm going to give an interview. After preparing the breakfast I went to get ready.I wear a pair of black jeans and a maroon butter top with a stole. I put up my hair in a high ponytail. For the last time, I checked myself looking in the mirror. And I was all ready to go for the interview.I grabbed my file put it inside my bag and came out of the room. Kunwar sa left for his office just minutes ago.After making sure that I have locked the door, I made my way to the lift and went down.After reaching the ground floor, I took a taxi as I don't know where the hell is SPS constructions office?I showed his company's card to the driver which I had stolen from Kunwar sa's room secretly.He he!! I didn't have any other way so I have to do that.After about 45 minutes, we arrived at SPS Construction.My confidence level got a bit down after reading the company's name. Kunwar sa's each and every word was roaming in my mind like bees. But I tried my best to look confident.I was late for the interview. Because When I reached there, almost every candidate have already registered their names. I entered inside.Wow!What Maa sa had said is true? SPS construction is fabulous. This sky-scraping building showed their legacy and luxury. I walked through the stone pavement to reach the interview hall. Once I registered my name and received my Identity card, I walked inside the building.Wow! Wow! Wow!I felt like I'm standing inside a wonderland. Because its interior design is better than the exterior. Walls and ceilings were made with glasses and their engineering work. Employees looked like models and here I'm in front of them like trash.I stood in a long queue to submit my certificates. I was a bit tense as it was my first time. After half an hour finally I meet at the front desk. After the certificate verification, I went to the interview panel. Plastering a fake confidence face I entered the interview hall.I was directed towards a huge hall filled with many drawing tables and chairs and one girl instructed me to grab a chair.I looked around for space because almost every seat was filled. But I got a table at least at the end of the hall which is a corner and I sat there. We were provided with À0 sheets, a drawing pen, and a drafter which was already fitted on the table. My heart was pounding crazily like, it can come outside anytime. I never got tensed this much in my life even if I'm writing exams.After a few minutes, a man same-aged as Kunwar sa in his suit came into our hall and welcomes us with a warm smile. He opened the laptop and ran his eyes for some seconds on it.Then suddenly the home screen showed a question and that was our test question for the interview. And the question is really tough.I started to do a rough sketch. I have only one hour with me. In that 15 minutes were already over due to my planning and a rough sketch.Twenty minutes were already over after staring at my rough sketch something got clicked into my mind suddenly. And I started drawing as much as fast I can but neatly. Because neatness has a major part in drawing plans.Within the rest of the time, I somehow completed the task. A girl announced to leave the hall and wait in the next room. So I left the room with the rest of the candidates.I was sitting in front of an interview panel consisting of 3 members including that man who had come to the task test. I sat there like an obedient child. That man was scanning through my Resume thoroughly. "Tell us something about you Ms.Naina" Yes finally the interview started and the first question was in the first person.After giving a brief description of myself again silence filled the room. suddenly I heard someone's footsteps.Why I don't know but my heartbeat started beating just like It's in some marathon race.And then that person came in front of me and sat with them. That person was none other than Kunwar sa.What the hell?"Why he is here?" I closed my eye's in fear."It's his office. So obviously he would be present here. Idiot." My subconscious mind scolds me.And I gulped hard then compose myself not wanting to show them my nervousness."The plan you have drawn is unique I like your plan, Ms. Naina." Puneet sir appreciates my work. I heard someone address him taking his name. So now I know his name. I must say, he is a very sweet person."Naina." Kunwar sa took my name and I looked at him getting shocked.Has he recognized me?"Naina," Sameer mumbled her name staring at the girl who was sitting in front of him and then at her file.But Puneet snatches it from him by pulling it."Yes, Naina. But not your Naina. There is not only one girl named Naina in the world. There is more. So now change this shocking expression on your face, Okay?"Puneet yelled in whispered near his ear. And then pass a smile to Naina not wanting to make the situation awkward."Yes, you're right. Why would she come here? And also she has no degree. It's just I'm overthinking." Sameer said in low voice.Naina was hella nervous. If he got to know that she is the Naina who is his so-called wife then her all effort will go in vain. She was continuously praying to her God to save her."Doesn't he keep talking about Naina too much these days? Tomorrow he was saying that she cooked very well. Just like his Maa sa.""And now he is imagining her in other girls. This idiot hasn't seen her face yet still imagining her as another girl. Even if Nai
"You're not Sameer's girlfriend. Then who are you?" She asked in a serious tone maintaining a seriously rough and tough face. But seeing Naina's nervous and sweaty face she burst into a guffaw. And Naina got puzzled. Makes her think, Why she is laughing? "Oye! I'm no cop that you are....." She point at her sweaty forehead and again continued "You're sweating like this." She said while laughing. "Okay! Okay! Sorry, Girl. Now please calm down. I was just casually asking you who you are to Sameer.""I'm his neighbor. Well, he doesn't know me. But I know him. So I was just a little curious to know who you are?""Moreover, only his girlfriend and one friend come to his place. And sometimes his parents. But today I am seeing for the first time that a girl is living in his house." "So now tell me what's the relation between you two?"She blabbered so many things and that made Naina jealous. Why does she know so many things about her husband? As much as she doesn't even know."First of
Naina rang the bell of their house within some moment the door was opened by a person.The person at the door stood with knitting brows but then smiled and welcomed her inside with a warm smile."Come. Come inside, Naina." And she gets in."I'm Sameera's sister, Purvi." She introduced herself to Naina with a wide smile and told her to sit."Sam. Naina has come." She shouted to summon her sister. And in no time Sam came out of her room while running."So, N. Finally You have come then." She said with a smirk and Naina looked at her with a frown face. And Sam chuckled."Your nickname babe." Saying that she sat with Naina on the sofa."You can call me Sam. Everyone calls me by that name. Not everyone but only those, who are close to me. And no one has any right."She said and laughed at her own words. And Naina smiled a fake one feeling awkward. She started thinking the second time to seek help from her."I.....I....." Naina was so confused about what to say? From where to start? "Wha
NAINAMy first day. I reached a little bit late because of Kunwar sa. Today he woke up late. Why today? Every day he wakes up early even if he was drunk. But today no reason he woke up late. Huhh! Because of me also Sameera got late on her work. Poor girl!I was excited as well as nervous. There were around 20 new employees including me on the new designing team. And top of that I was selected as the head of the team. WHAT THE FUCK! I felt the whole sky fall on my head when Kunwar sa pointed his finger at me and said I was selected as the team leader.Really!Am I dreaming?A set of rules and regulations were kept in front of us. And as a leader, there was an extra set of rules, especially for me.Great! Since I met him, I never looked directly into his eyes. And I'm really scared to look into his eyes. Why I don't know? After a brief introduction to our new colleagues, we began to start working. I liked my working desk. There was a drawing desk and all stationers were kept arou
NAINA"Kunwar Sa," I mumbled under my breath looking into his eyes with my tear-filled eyes. Thank God he didn't hear it.Damn!I was in his arms. And he was also looking at me with a shocked expression. I had never got the chance to look into his eye but today I got the chance and I find myself lost in them. Suddenly I gained my sense back hearing him clearing his throat. He helped me to stand me on my feet properly. "Where were you lost? Can't you even walk properly? Watch your way while walking." He asked me in a serious tone and I gulped in fear thinking about what should I answer?"Hey, Sameer." I heard someone's voice from my behind so I looked behind to see. And I felt a wave of relief wash over me when I saw Puneet Sir walking in our direction."You came back already?" He asked him standing beside me passing a smile at me."Yes, and I was going to my cabin but...." Kunwar sa replied still gazing at me but stopped in between. He didn't take his eyes off me.Puneet sir looked a
"Sameera, how many years have you been living here?" Naina asked her way back home in her scooty."I think, nearly 5 years," Sam replied simply while giving her full concentration on the road."Yaar, why do you always talk to me so formally? Feel free to ask and talk to me friendly. It feels awful when you talk to me so formally." Sameera complained."I'm not any stranger to you anymore. So keep in mind, next time don't repeat this mistake of yours." Hence, advised her to get used to being friendly with her. And Naina nodded her head affirmatively."Yaar, don't shake your head like that. Just like others I also have my eyes frontwards and also have only two eyes. Neither more nor less.""So I can't see backward. And also I'm not a witch that I could turn my neck towards you. So when you have to answer someone, you must use your tongue to express what you want to say. Instead of nodding or shaking your head. Get it?" Sam gave her a short lecture which made her remember someone."You'
2 months later NAINA"Naina, are you done making the draft I asked you to make?" Puneet sir asked me on the intercom."Yes Sir! Just finished it a while ago. I was about to come to give you the draft before I reached there; you already called me. I'll be there in a minute, Sir." I told him while taking my draft."No, You don't have to come to my cabin. There has been a call from the high command for you, you go straight to there with your draft."His words make me confused. What the hell is he talking about?"Sir, I didn't get you?" I asked him to clear my confusion and I heard him chuckling. "Naina, Sameer has asked to take the draft directly to him. I have lots of work to do. So bye-bye. And best of luck." He said and cut the call."What the heck? Now I have to go to his cabin. As much as I try to stay away from him, Destiny keeps planning to send me to him again and again. Don't know why; when I go in front of him, no word comes out of my mouth. Hence, how I'm going to describe
NAINA"Miss Naina." I heard him calling me from behind. So I turned on my heels to face him."From now on, whenever I called for you; be in time. And whenever I asked for any draft from you; you should be here with your work. Don't dare to send it through someone else." With a hard look, he said."Why? Do you like to see my face too much?" I asked him with a tight lip smile but in my mind. As I don't have the guts to say these words to his face."Got it?" He asked me and I said yes nonchalantly while nodding my head affirmatively. Then walked off from there with my grumpy face."Why Yaar, why? Why does he annoy me so much? Am I a machine or a robot that keeps me working all the time without giving me time to have some rest?" I whined in a whisper while walking toward the lift."Let's call Sam." I pulled out my phone from my pant pocket and called her. In three rings she picked up my call."Now what he has perpetrated, N?" Without any hello and hi she directly asked me what had he done
