Green Army

I arrived at the Green Army Organization's headquarters, a modest single-story building surrounded by lush greenery. Rows of saplings lined the front yard, each destined to be planted across Hyderabad, part of their grand initiative to make the city more sustainable and eco-friendly. The air was fresh with the scent of blooming flowers, and vibrant colors greeted me as I walked through the greenery. It felt like stepping into a small oasis amidst the chaos of urban life.

As I strolled through the rows of plants, my eyes landed on her—Divya. Or rather, Rakul Preet Singh, as she was known in another world. She moved with graceful ease among a group of volunteers, delegating tasks and offering guidance on where specific plants were to be sown. Her natural beauty was enhanced by the dedication she exuded—completely immersed in her work.

The moment she saw me, I felt the system's influence come into play. Her eyes lingered just a little too long, her smile warm but tinged with something more—attraction. It was subtle but undeniable. The Harem function was already working, drawing her towards me before I'd even said a word. I stood back for a moment, observing her as she moved, admiring her focus and passion.

As the volunteers began to disperse, leaving her momentarily alone, I knew it was the perfect time to approach. She was bent over, carefully tending to a set of vibrant flowers, her back to me. I allowed myself a small, confident smile—this was going to be easy.

I stepped forward, and the soft crunch of gravel under my shoes made her glance up. The moment our eyes met, I saw it—the spark, the intrigue. Her lips curled into a polite, but curious smile.

"Good afternoon," I greeted her, my tone casual and inviting. "I've heard great things about the work you're doing here."

Divya stood up, brushing her hands against her thighs. "Good afternoon," she replied, her eyes lingering on me longer than usual, confirming the system's effect. "We're just trying to do our part, one plant at a time."

Her voice was warm, but there was a hint of something more—a slight flutter that hadn't been there before. I could tell she was already feeling the pull. The system had ensured that.

"I'm Surya," I said, extending my hand toward her. "I've been looking into making my office space more eco-friendly, and I've been told the Green Army Organization is the best in the city."

Her smile brightened. "That's great to hear! We've been working with businesses to help them go green. We'd be happy to help you with that."

As we shook hands, I felt her grip linger just a second longer than necessary. The attraction was growing, the system making sure of that. But I didn't want to rush things. I knew that building a connection took finesse, and I wanted this to be natural, despite the supernatural pull already at play.

"Your dedication is admirable," I said sincerely, locking eyes with her. "It's rare to see someone so invested in a cause like this."

Her cheeks flushed slightly, and I could see the faintest hint of nervousness in her smile. "Thank you," she replied, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "It's not easy, but it's worth it. Seeing the city slowly transform gives me hope."

As we talked, the chemistry between us began to grow. Every word, every glance seemed to deepen the connection, and I could see it in her body language. She was drawn to me—her posture a little more relaxed, her eyes brighter, her smile softer.

It was almost noon, and as our conversation naturally wound down, I decided to push things a little further.

"You know," I said, glancing at my watch, "it's almost lunchtime. How about we grab something to eat and talk more about how we can work together on the eco-friendly office? I'd love to hear more about your ideas."

Divya hesitated for a brief second, but then she nodded, a playful smile tugging at her lips. "I'd like that. There's a nice little café nearby that serves great organic food. We can go there."

With her agreement, I knew the seed had been planted, both in terms of business and something more. The system was already doing its work, amplifying her attraction toward me, but I wanted to let this unfold naturally—or at least appear to.

We walked side by side toward the café, making light conversation along the way. I could sense the growing attraction, not just from the system, but in the way she glanced at me when she thought I wasn't looking, the way she smiled at my jokes, the way she seemed more and more at ease in my presence.

When we arrived at the café, we took a seat in a quiet corner, away from the bustle. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxed, perfect for furthering the connection between us. As we ate, we discussed various ideas for how my office could adopt greener practices—solar panels, recycled materials, indoor plants—but beneath the surface, the conversation was laced with subtle flirtation.

She laughed at my stories, her eyes sparkling with interest, and I made sure to keep the conversation light but engaging, drawing her in more and more with each passing moment.

As we finished our meal, I leaned back in my chair, giving her a lingering look. "You know, Divya, I have a feeling this is the beginning of a great partnership."

Her smile widened, and I could see that she was already thinking beyond the professional. "I think you might be right, Ryan."

With that, I knew she was mine. The lunch had not only secured her interest in working with me but had also sparked a connection that would soon grow into something more.

As we left the café, we exchanged phone numbers and made plans to meet again, this time to finalize the details of the project. But we both knew there was more to this than just business.

This was just the beginning of something deeper, and as I watched her walk away, I felt a sense of satisfaction. Everything was falling into place, and soon, Divya would be another part of my growing world.
