Episode 3

"Hey Shweta, finally you came here! I have been waiting for you" Vivaan's voice startled me and I came to my senses. "Ohh Yaa Vivaan, I'm sorry! There was heavy traffic!" I respond to Vivaan, trembling and scared. He looks in to my eyes and asks, "Are you alright?" I can see his face lined up with tension. "Oh yeah absolutely Vivaan!, I am fine , just don’t you worry!" I tell him with a smile.

"But will you be able to be normal in front of him?" his question reminds me of my weakness, it makes me weak in the knees, I feel that I might not be able to face Aditya. I don't have the answer to this question. But I manage to put up my mask and with a smile on my face, I tell Vivaan "Yes you don't you worry at all! I will face everything."

"I hope you'll do what you are saying Shweta, because that fear is clearly visible on your face. Have courage Shweta, I am with you!" Vivaan says holding my hand. "Ofcourse Vivaan! I know you're with me! That's why I was able to come here. Now lets go inside." I tell him with a smile.

As we go in, my fear is increasing and my mind is struggling to remain in present.

When we get in the lift, Vivaan presses the 7th floor button and passes a convincing smile.

We enter the office that has an elegant signboard reading "A .M Fashion company" on the top of the entrance gate.

There's a lot of space inside with a counter on the right side , a large cabin in the front right and there are sofas and chairs on the right side between the counter and the cabin and some of my friends are sitting on those chairs. The second cabin is on the front left. "Hey, where were you both? We've been waiting for you so long!" my friend Riya calls out and comes to hug me. I embrace her warmly and reply "Oh I'm sorry dear, I got up late in the morning and there was heavy traffic on the way!"

She asks me if I am alright because she also knows about my love for Aditya.

"Yes I'm fine Riya! Don’t worry." I answer with a smile.

The entire office is very beautiful and symbolizes elegance and great taste. On the wall, there are dozens of certificates and photographs of prizes and awards received. Yes, Aditya is also there in these pictures and he looks perfect as always.

But we're informed that Aditya is not here in person today and that's quite a relief for me, atleast for now.

later on, all the new interns are gathered in a conference hall and Vishal and Sumit sir start the session by explaining about the company's history, success, standing, their expectaions from us, rules & regulations etc.
