9 Chapter 9

Ananya's p.o.v.

Finally, it's Monday morning. I wore a brown color solid full-sleeve kurta with off-white color leggings. I tugged my hair loosely with a clip.

Today is again my first day in a new company. No, it's not the same as the previous first days. It's Arjun. I am going to work for him that too as his PA. Both of us had a very bad impression on our first sorry second meeting. And honestly, a little part of my heart still hates him. But he might have forgotten me. After all, it's almost 6 months after that day.

As I reached the office my heart started beating at a fast rate. This office is also nothing less than the previous one. I went to the reception. The reception girl with her formal smile asked me

"Good morning Ma'am. How can I help you?"

"My name is Ananya Roy. I am joining here today as the PA of Mr. Singhania. This is my official joining letter." I hand over the letter to her.

She checked it.

"Ok. Please wait a minute Ms. Roy." Then she made a phone call.

"Well, Mr. Mehra is coming to receive you. Till then you can wait here."

"Thank you."

We smiled at each other. She is a pretty girl with a soothing voice.

"By the way I'm Aditi."

"Hi Aditi, I'm .. well you already know."

"Yeah, Ananya. Oh, Mr. Mehra is coming. Congratulations and all the best for your new job, Ananya."

"Thanks, Aditi."

A handsome, tall man nearly 4-5 years older than me appeared.

"Good morning, Ms Roy."

"Good morning, Sir."

"Come follow me."

Then we entered the lift and reached the 10th floor.

"By the way, I'm Avinash Mehra, boss's secretary."

"Hello Sir, I'm Ananya Roy."

"I know. Well, you can call me Avinash." He said to me with a charming smile.

"Ok."

"I am going to introduce you to your boss that means MD of this company, Arjun Singhania. Are you nervous? Don't worry. Everything will be fine and congratulations and all best for your new job."

"Thank you, sir."

He knocked on the door of the cabin.

I am hell nervous. Please God don't let him recognize me.

"Come in." A husky deep voice came.

"Good morning, Arjun."

"Morning."

He replied looking keeping his eyes on the laptop and typing something.

The cabin is quite large, with an impressive interior design. A sofa set is also present there. There is a very soothing, peaceful atmosphere inside the cabin. By the glass wall behind you can see the city also.

"Here is your new PA Ms. Ananya Roy."

He stopped midway and looked up.

My heart started beating so fast that I can hear it. No please no.

He looked directly into me. I am gone.

Suddenly something started ringing.

"Excuse me, it's an important call." Avinash went out to receive his call.

And his eyes came back to me. What the hell? Is he dumb? He is looking at me like I am some mysterious creature. The last time when I checked he was nothing but a bomb. Mr. Bomb turned Mr. Dumb.

But his next words cleared all my doubts.

"Aren't you that rejected bride?" He smirked reaching the ultimate stage of my irritation. Calm down Ananya. Act smart. Don't lose your confidence.

"Personal assistant, Sir. I am your new PA. Just have joined today."

He raised his left eyebrows ben

"Hmm, interesting. So Ms...what. PA.."

"Ananya Roy. It's Ananya Roy sir."

"Umm. Ms whatever.. what do you is it going to be easy working with me."

Not.

" Sir, nothing is easy at first. But if we work hard, give our 100% nothing is going to be that difficult also."

"200%... We need your 200%. 100% is not enough nowadays."

Obviously, he has to cut me.

"Yes Sir. I will."

Suddenly he stood up from his chair and came in front of me.

"Well, tell me one thing aren't you scared?"

I looked at him questioningly. He came one more step close to me.

"I am a spoilt brat what if you also get spoilt by me?" He smirked again.

"Then I will also start a company, will become CEO of that Company, and will ask my PA the same question. Like guru(teacher) like shishya (student). So there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Coffee."

"No thanks."

"I am not asking you. I am asking for mine. You are my assistant so it's your responsibility to make me coffee."

I came back to my senses.

"Sorry, Sir. Your coffee will be right there."

I came out of his cabin and take a deep breath. These newspapers and magazines show the wrong things. Is it a sign of being humble, gentle, ideal blah blah blah? From this side, this conversation was looking like a conversation between a CEO and his employee. I don't know how I am going to bear him every day from now on.

But now I have to make coffee for him. But where I have no idea and to my luck Avinash arrived with a boy. I asked him. He gave me the direction to the canteen.

"Ok. First, you prepare the coffee and give him. And meet Rakesh. He works under me. He will show you your cabin after that and Rakesh this is Ananya, the new PA of Arjun, sir."

We greeted each other. And then both of them vanished again to their destination and me to mine.

After taking the coffee I headed to that irritating place again.

I knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"Here is your coffee, sir."

He took it. As soon as he took the first sip looked like he was going to throw the cup but stopped and instead started shouting "What is this? Why this much sugar in it? I want black coffee with no sugar."

"Sorry, Sir I have no idea about this. It won't happen again."

"Sorry means you are my PA and it's your responsibility to be aware of this. Get me another one. Fast."

"Yes Sir." I came out.

Oh God, this man is insane. I am not sure about getting spoilt but I will become mad for sure.
