chapter 13

...suddenly someone bumped into him..."Are you okay?" Aarav asked, giving his hand to help her get up."A guy... (as handsome a dream prince) ... Spoke to me... ", Tara mumbled.She was lost in his charm "Are you hurt anywhere?" Aarav asked her againShe is still on the floor because of that crashed meeting. After a moment she came back to her senses and realised he is still offering his hand to pick her up. She grabbed his hand and stood up..."Ya, I... I'm fine, thank you" Tara replied staring at his handsome face. Every person there who knew him thought that he is going to fire Tara immediately on the spot but they all were shocked after seeing him change like that."Very well then, be careful," Aarav said with a smile on his face and left for his way to the restaurant...But Tara ... She froze there because of his killing smile..."""What the hell was that""" her friend said in a shocked tone"Huh?" She came back to normal."What did I just see... Oh my... I... I can't believe my eyes""That Akdu ... Said sorry" (in Hindi 'Akdu' word is used for an arrogant person)"Ohh my Gooodddddd, you are really lucky Tara," her friend saidAll office employees were shocked after seeing what happened there in the office. And Aarav was still trying to reach Mr Sharma...Ringgg..... Ringgggg...."Hello, Sharma uncle... Why were you not picking up my call? " Aarav complained."I am busy right now but I have details about that girl see you tomorrow morning at the office"Beep..."Hello ... uncle... Hello?"And the call got disconnected.Aarav was eagerly waiting for the next morning... But this night doesn't seem to end soon it is much more longer... Those eight hours were like 8 years for him. That night he didn't even blink his eyes and the next morning when finally the sun arrived, he came to the office too early, three hours before the official starting time and he is desperately waiting there for Mr, Sharma.Finally, after 21 calls Mr Sharma reached the office ..."You ... Huff ... don't you have ... Huff ... don't you have any patience?" Mr Sharma said in a panting voice.Aarav didn't reply nor greet him, he just reached out for that envelope Mr Sharma was holding in his hands and opened it..."This information wasn't enough," Aarav said looking at those documents and photographs."Yeah, everything we got in our hands was information on her about five years ago... She is from the same college as you but she didn't complete her graduation, she left college in her first year and moved out from this city and that's all... I didn't find anything else about her" Mr Sharma replied."But I want to know, where is she," Aarav said in a helpless tone, looking at Mr Sharma."I don't know yet, but I'll find out soon... Give me some time Aarav, I promise I will find her" Mr Sharma replied."I ... I don't have time .. uncle I ... just can't wait. This waiting ..... is killing me, this guilt is killing me inside. I want to apologize to her. Aarav said looking at her picture, his voice is shaking and his eyes were filled with tears.Mr Sharma came near him and placed his hand on Aarav's shoulder...
