"Juliya don't complain me later about this is not right that is not right, what’s taking you so long"

"Will you plz give me a break, this damn traffic and that jerk boss is already giving me headache now you don't get started"

"Ok Ok get the thing done and come back quickly"

" I'm trying my best.. hold on she is calling' (she holded the call with Pranav on her car blootuth device and connected with Ramia's call) Hel..."

"Are you going to take the whole day just to bring some documents" Ramia almost yelled even before juliya's greeting

"Ma'am there is a traffic on the way I'll be there in few minutes"

ttttt a tone of dead end heard from the other side "Hello...she hung up" juliya connected the call with Pranav

"What is she saying?"

"What else can she say, she just turned into a living volcano when she is angry, God knows what had happened"

"Yeah it's been five days only since she came back and workload already increased five times simultaneously her anger "

"By the way why do you think she came back! she was not going to come back any time soon, is it's just for this project!"

"Who knows maybe some family emergency"

"Family emergency! huh(she left a chuckle) it's been five years being her P.A but never heard about her family things,

(Pranav left a mocking chuckle on the other side) ...wait do you know something."

"Me, hey how come!" (caught red handed)

"Haaa..no need to pretend I know all your tones very well ok"

"Why do you know me so well" Pranav murmured which left unheard

"Sometimes I feel like you have more personal information of her's although her Personal assistance is me, why don't you give me your finance manager's position and take over my P.A position"

"No no, no need to do this great favor on me "

"Seems like the road is finally clearing" She slowly pressed the accelerator on her foot 'cretchhhh' car stopped with a loud sound

"What was that" Juliya was stunned

"What! Did something happened?"

"I'm hanging" she hung up the call and get out of the car only to see a lady in her mid fifties laying unconscious in front of her car.

Pranav and Juliya's marriage is on the corner, they were on leave for three days for wedding preparation but luck was not with them there boss came back without a prior notice, They have a meeting in 1 hrs. and Assistant Juliya Mathur have forgot the presentation at her home so Goodbye wedding shopping and Hello office work.

"This is how you going to present, who the hell was the person to recruit you I want to fire him too.( Ramia threw away the file on her hand) now what! Are you going to stand there and stare at me all day long....Leave" Ramia shouted in her cabin and employees outside stared at each other.

" seems like this is going to be the last day for many of us "

" I just want to see the person for whom the sleeping beast inside her have woken up"

Ramia called Juliya again...

"Ms. Mathur I think a permanent leave will be best for your wedding gift, isn't it sounds good"

"Ma'am I'm so sorry. Actually their was a small accident on the way so I'm calling someone from the office to collect the files from me, I'm in the hospital right now"

"My apology for your inconvenience ma'am , but I was driving very carefully God knows from where the lady come in front of my car"

"Yeah I know how amazing your driving skills are, So how is the person now?"

"Don't know doctors are still inside, we are in 'icare Hospitex' that one which affiliate with our company" Juliya gave herself a proud patt in her mind for her smartness.

"What about you, are you hurt too ?"

"No I'm alright, ma'am should I call someone from the office?"

"No need just change the venue, there is a restaurant nearby the hospital right"

"Yeah"

"Call the client over there, take care of the reservation and I'll collect the file myself from you. Understand "

"Tahir Alif, you have grown up ( Mr. Iyar chuckled ) it still feels like yesterday when I came to your collage as a guest lecturer . Did you remember I have intentionally asked a wrong question and while most of the student was misguided by me you The arrogant brat argued with me boldly. I have told you that day will meet you in future and see where are you today" Tahir started reminiscing his old days at that time he used to be very rough in nature, as usual normal youth things.

Amid being an internationally recognized, renound scholler and scientist he have always kept his feet on the ground maybe that's why he started admiring him, not to mention there was a big contribution of him in his change of roughness of his character. Dr. Iyar had visited their collage two times occasionally but Tahir came to know him during his research paper which was two years ago Dr.Iyar became his professor in charge , Guide and backbone at the crucial stage of his carrier. Finally his research work on bacteriophage antidote got recognized and he is nominated for International awards which will be a benchmark for his career.

"What's your mom says? Have you told her yet ! "

"No sir actually I myself got to know few minutes ago ..." Tahir's phone started ringing , his mother calling , he excused himself and picked up the call after getting outside but the voice from the other side was an unknown female voice and what she told him shook his entire world

Ramia get off the car and went straight to the ER, fortunately Juliya was standing in front of the patients room and talking on her mobile. Juliya noticed Ramiya and quickly approached to her after hanging up the call.

"Ma'am why are you here! You should have called me "

Ramiya showed her call log to Juli which shows '5 times not connected' , Juliya slapped herself on her mind .

" Actually I was busy informing her family and other works" Ramiya hummed in reply

" Files " She commanded and Juli handed it to her and was about to leave when she stated

" by the way I've told you I was driving carefully and she didn't bump with my car, I was right. "

"What does that mean"

" She just happened to faint in front of my car actually she is a cancer Patient .Just now she herself told the doctor. She seems a very kind lady , What a pity! "

"Do you know her?"

"No, but she talked to me "

"What about family?"

"Yeah her son is on the way"

"OK, I'm getting late, you take care of here"

"Yes ma'am Thanks for your cooperation " Juliya stated politely in her professional style, Ramia couldn't help but chuckled on her antics and left. She came half a way on the corridor while she noticed the pendrive was not with the file and went back.
