Pride comes at that moment when you start to accept yourself💕

-+-+++-+-++-+-+-+--+-++-++-++-++--+

There is something extremely wrong with this world when we put our burdens on the uncertainty of the future but I am not going to play this time to the hands of fortune.

Destiny is my hurdle and will always be and this guy had the guts to enter my house, look into my eyes without being afraid of rejection and tell me as he owns me in his dignity that he is my admirer, or better to be called suitor!

I wanted to ask him who gave him any right to put his finger on me and tell me I am going to pursue you but before I could say anything he walked away, grinning as he was relishing everything.

"Mother! Tell me who the hell was he?" I shouted on top of my lungs, my voice was squeaking at the tip of everything and my heart? It was thumping!

"Julia, you have to marry someday you know," she was grinning, she must be on cloud nine.

Oh, how wonderful it would be for her if her daughter gets married right?

So she could do anything according to her plans

But I decline to all these things!

I decline everything related to getting married and spending my whole life with a male species who knows nothing about insensitive

"Mother, I am not going to marry in my life!"

I shouted and tried to get up with my injured leg. I have to go to work, do all the projects completed so that nothing can run ahead of time I was compiling.

"You will just give a chance to this boy! Your aunt especially selected this boy for you!"

Oh, like honey, she was velveting everything and sugar coating as this is the most ecstatic moment of my life.

"Then why don't Aunt Marie get married to that boy by herself mother?"

I tried to play along, first of all, who gave aunt Marie the right to select a boy for me?

Why doesn't she just mind her own business? And what is this? If I ever get married then I will select by myself then why is she doing all these things?

"Julia, don't speak badly about her! She loves you, you know!"

Oh, how sweet my mother is- who thinks she loves me!

She never acknowledged my presence, my bad mouth speaking, my will to fight against everyone! Now suddenly she became my fairy Godmother to present me with a boy who wants to get married to me!

And if that was not enough! He had the guts to announce that he is the heir of Mehra Industries!

Fuck with Mehra Industries!

Fuck with everyone!

"Bye mother, I have to go to work! Because some people work hard for their lives and some just show of themselves as they have captured the whole world by being the heir of some nonsense industry!"

Such a chauvinistic bastard!

She interrupted me for a moment, but I grabbed my bag and went to find a taxi!

Yes! I have not bought my car yet!  According to me- why waste money on a car when you easily find a taxi!

I rushed to find one then finally beating all the traffic went into my office! My own company!

I have started this company when I got back from California, the thing was I never wanted to work under anybody!

So why don't you do something so that people can work under you, and that gracious thing will serve many people, the people who are talented and vulnerable like me!

As I came here, evicting All the shadows, ready to work most powerfully!

I came into my cabin and was organizing and finding a file that was too much important for the meeting I was getting headed into until I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!" I shouted,

The peon came, holding a bouquet of red roses!

Why on earth is he holding a bouquet of red roses?

It is not even Valentine's week!

Anyways! I hardly care about valentines week and all the stupid lovey-dovey days!

"What is this Mr Sharma?"
My tone was dripping in the avenge of arrogance.

As I was already furious about the meeting and now this!

"I don't know mam! This just arrived for you, here take it!"  And then he put it down on my desk!

That desk which was only filled with files now has some fragrance in it!

That desk who knows nothing about affection might have glanced at it!

That desk which knows only the colour of black and white is now entrapped in the colour of red!

As he put it down. I saw it in a very keen way, holding a glance at it. It has around fifty roses in it.

Who on earth sent these to me? And fifty?

At one moment I wanted to put them all in the dustbin or maybe want to burn them all in the fire of my rage, but then again another part of me wants to see the card that was inside the bouquet.

So, I decided to see the card, as curiosity is another destruction created by God in the name of hell.

As I grabbed it and saw- Mehra Industries, was printed in bold letters.

Julia, be ready by evening, I will pick you up for the dinner.

With the heart engraved in it!

Only I know how much I wanted to smash this heart who was trying to tell me- that he just announced that he will come to pick me!

Who is he? To decide when he can come or not to pick me up?
Doesn't he know I can go anytime with my legs?

He doesn't even know me, still acting like my boyfriend already! Or better to be called admirer, whatever he said!

I crushed the paper and thrown it away into the dustbin that was near the window resting shamelessly filling itself with all the burden of other humans!

"Let me see how you convince me to go with you!" I whispered to myself.
And collected all my files, everything that was related to the meeting to get the deal done.

Then I walked away to the board room where everyone was already there waiting for me to arrive.

As I reached there everything was already in the dark, or the projector was illuminating the light.

Time to get it started.

I showed the project, whatever I compiled with my brains and all the things which needed to get the deal done!

And I am glad that everyone was pleased with the ppt, finally, the hard work was going to get paid.

"I have a question for you,"

A sound heavy as stone, filled with arrogance, asked me in its most professional way.

"Yes?" I asked while glueing to my spot.

Though, I was confident enough to tackle all the problems still my heart was beating fast for some unknown reasons.

"How much this will going to affect Mehra Industries?"

Mehra what?

And as all the lights came in dark, all the forces of white in black, all the stars went all bright at the same time, I saw his face in the bright shine.

The same eyes which remind me of someone!

Someone whom I hate the most!

Arnav Mehra was here in his full dignity, with all the male pride, looking at me eye-to-eye as challenging me to say something against his will!

This is a situation that is dangerous than any situation because I am going to let my pride take away for some time.

"Oh yes. Mr Mehra let me explain that to you," I said with a fake smile, the smile which I always fake to everybody who tries to get too generous for me.

And then I explained everything to him in detail!

I know he did this on purpose, he was enjoying the scenario which he planted to see.

Anyways! Let him enjoy the moment, I will tell him at the dinner table which he is planning for us!

That he is not the master here!

As I was about to walk on the other side, I felt something on my leg and then I was on the wind again, falling from the sky to the land,

But somehow, I didn't he was looking at me with the same eyes, only this time our position was not good.

He purposely did that!

I jerked his hands at the same moment when he winked at me from his dark eyes!

And then I walked away, that chauvinistic bastard needs to learn a lesson and I will surely educate him a great lesson!
