"ARE YOU MESSING WITH ME ?? ....I DON'T BELIEVE IT... THE PROPOSAL YOU GAVE ME LAST TIME............
WAS MUCH BETTER THAN THE LAST ONE " he shouted and threw all the pages on the floor.

He got up from his chair and scolded her ," I have seen many bad workers but you are just the worst. Quit if you don't want to work instead of torturing me like this ."

Siya bit her cheek to control her laugh and picked up the proposal from the floor and said," Mr, Ashish I am so sorry . It's the same proposal. But can you please tell me how can last proposal be better than this one if it's the same one? I will bring the new one. Just a moment." And went to her table and brought the new one.
"It's the new one."

Ashish was dumbfounded. All the employees watched this scene and controlled their laugh.

They began whispering,

"How could he not recognise it was the same proposal?"

"At least he should have known the title."

"He really doesn't work , does he?"

"He never fails to disappoint."

Ashish left the office saying that he had some work to avoid embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Siya offered Meera coffee ,  " Cheers . Ma'am , I proved it to you that  he doesn't really work. "

"How could he not recognise the proposal ? Even the title was same ." Meera exclaimed.

" He was always like this . But now we are on the same team . My proposal of meal kits will be a huge hit . Quick , easy and delicious meals for consumers. "

"Okay. Now I understood why things never went my way .  How could I trust and work for someone like him? " She exclaimed with disbelief .

Meanwhile , Ria entered the room ," Why didn't you invite me for gossips ?" and joined them for coffee and gossips about Ashish.

Alia saw Siya's proposal and went through it and smirked when an evil idea popped in her mind and asked Ashish to meet for dinner saying that she wanted to discuss something important with him.

"Ms. Alia , why do you want to meet me? Should I consider it as our first date ?" asked Ashish.

"As you wish , Sir. It's my luck to go on a date with such a handsome man as you ." She said with a seductive smile.

Ashish felt his heartrate increase hearing her words and began to plan his future with her in his mind.

" I know that I am handsome , Ms Alia. But you are also very pretty and decent lady . Your dressing sense is so good . It's only due to employees like you our company is still working."

"Siya is a decent woman too...." She tried to bring Siya and her proposal into the conversation..

"What , That girl who looks like an owl in specs is decent....!! You are too good to be her friend..."

"Please try to understand. I have seen her proposal. It's really good . Please approve it and we will work together on it...."

"Together?? You and me??" , Ashish again wondered with his thoughts about his and Alia's future marriage...

" Sir , please I request..."she said with a pitiful face..

Ashish's heart melted seeing her expression. And he said,

"Okay , tomorrow I will approve it and then we will work together.which made Alia smirk since she got successful in her plans .

Siya's pov

Getting a second chance in life  means
I can do anything . I managed to get back at Alia and also  Mr. Ashish . I can change my fate.

I saw a gift on my table and wondered who sent it but my doubts got cleared when I saw a small chit near it...

' I bought both of us a set of matching earrings. Wear it and come for dinner on sunday.  
  - Your better half , Alia❤️ '

My mobile got a notification and I saw there were a lot of messages from Alia.

' Why do you actually so distant from me? '

'Did I do something wrong.? '

'Let's meet on Sunday and talk .'

' Don't forget to wear my gift for dinner at Hotel Maniprabha '

Hotel Maniprabha??
Now I remembered . It's hotel where our where I was embarrassed in our school reunion.

In my previous life , I reached the hotel where Alia planned dinner with me in my casual outfit and the earings that she gifted me...

As I reached the entrance of the restaurant , someone spoke ," See , Siya really came ." Disgust and anger was visible in her tone . I saw that it was Natasha , my high school bully and she was not alone . There was everyone present from my school .

When Alia came towards me , I asked her why were our classmates present there .. She replied with a smile that it was a surprise for me since she knew if she told me about the reunion I would refuse to come . So she lied .
At that time , I was naive to believe her talks and she pulled me towards the table where everyone was seated . I felt out of the place . First of all my outfit was very casual and moreover I remembered my terrible memories of high school .

I made an excuse and entered washroom and locked myself in one of the toilet . I wanted to leave this place.

Just then I heard voices from outside,

" Why did she even come to the reunion?"

"She has no friends.."

"Maybe she came here to eat.."

"Did you see her outfit? She looks so poor."

"Still, how is she even hanging out with Alia ? "

"Alia , being a kind hearted girl is just too nice to her ."

"Siya couldn't afford to eat a place like this without Alia ."

I recognised these voices .... They belong to my high school bullies... That trio... Natasha, Sara  and Trisha...

" Alia is too nice for her."

"Did  you see her earings? She copied Alia's style . Even her earings are fake like her . I could tell it from miles away ."

"Even in highschool she troubled Alia....."

"Wait , Natasha ."

"What?"

" She was not there at the table earlier . So she must be in one of the cubicles "

They realised that I was hiding there and began to kick open all the cubicles one by one . I was afraid that they will find me . I remembered them bullying me throughout the high school.
Finally Natasha kicked open the cubicle in which I was hiding and....

There's no way I am going to attend the reunion and get trap again .  I will inform Alia about being unable to attend the dinner.

I received a message from Samrat saying that he was coming over to my apartment . In my previous life we had a passionate night today as he was very persistent to take next step in our relationship. I need to avoid it . So I messaged Alia telling her to meet me at my apartment .

As I exited the office with Alia' s gift in my hand ,I met Raghav . I greeted him , "Bye , Sir , see you tomorrow."

He saw something in my hand and got confused ," This...?"

" It's a gift from my friend. " I said showing him the bag.

"It's a replica brand . People who know can tell .  You shouldn't wear those ."  He said.

I remembered , even in my previous life when I wore these earrings, he told me the same thing  but I ignored him since I thought that he was being rude . I didn't know what Alia has planned for me at the reunion. It was a gift from my friend so I thought that his comment was rude. I was really a fool back then .

" Thank you so much , Sir ." I said.

" Shall I drop you ? " He asked me .

"Huh..." Did I hear something wrong ?    He wants to drop me home ?

" It's just so late. "

" No , it's fine . I can manage by bus. "

" But I want to drop you home ." He was still persistent.

" Sorry, Sir. I'll decline. I have plans with my boyfriend. Bye. " He was disappointed.

I had to show him reality . What does he want from me ?? I found no other excuse than using Samrat to avoid him.

I reached my apartment. Samrat was in the shower . It was common for him to enter my apartment as he knew the passcode . Now I just want Alia to come as soon as possible so I can avoid spending a night with Samrat.

I saw her messages,

' I am angry with you. I am not going to come today.'

If she won't come to my apartment , how will I avoid Samrat ??

Think Siya ... Think...

The bathroom door opened and Samrat came out of the shower in just a towel only and gave me a seductive, disgusting smile , " Hey babe ...."

I tried to divert his attention.
"Samrat , you came early . I thought you will take longer to come ."

"I couldn't wait to make love to you. So I took a taxi. Let's take next step in our relationship ."saying this he came towards me and I began to take my steps backwards but got collided with the bed and fell on the bed with him on top of me... He cupped my face.

"Let's wear clothes and then talk " I tried to avoid him .

He put a finger on my lips and said , "Let's talk with our bodies." Saying that he brought his face towards my lips to kiss me and then.....
I just prayed to God to save me ..

So guys that's it for today..

What do you think will happen??

Samrat is persistent to spend a night with Siya ... How will she avoid it ?? Will her God save her it someone else will ??
