The Stranger

'Oh .. I am so sorry .. I didn't see you.' The boy said picking up Swara's files.

'No no.. Its OK. It was my mistake as well.'

'Are you OK? I mean, I hope you are not injured.' He said as he lend his hand to Swara to make her get up from the floor.

'Yeah..! I am perfectly fine. A small bump was not meant to injure me, I guess..!' She laughed it out and caught hold of his hand to get up from the floor.

She turned to leave, when he called out..
'Hey Miss..'

'Swara.. Swara Mukherjee.'

'Well Miss Swara, would you please be kind enough to tell me where the canteen is? Actually I joined in today itself. So you see, I am unable to find it.'

'Umm well.. I also joined as an intern today and I too was looking for the canteen. But the people here does not seem to be so nice to put a board at least.'

'Probably true.. Well let's find it together. I mean, when our destination is same, then then why ways be different? Let's set off for the canteen hunt .. Lol..!'

'Oh my gosh..! Typical Bollywood lines.. Huh? Well yeah .. Let's go.'

Finally they reached the canteen after a lot of good efforts. They mad themselves comfortable on the bean bags and ordered coffee for themselves.

'So Swara, where are you from?'

'Delhi..'

'Woah..! Delhi.. I love that place. Its pretty cool, you see.'

'Whatever.. It does not seem to be as cool to me though..'

Swara was never like this. She never allowed anyone to come near her. She hardly had any friends. But this was different.

Swara's POV ~
He's good. I mean he seems to be so. He is cute though. Hey wait..! What is that happening to me? Why am I giving any random person, so much of importance? Damn..!
POV ends~

Her thought chain was broken when she saw him waving his hand in front of her eyes.

'You seem to be in deep thoughts. Lost, eh?'

'Oh no.. Nothing like that.'

'So.. A lot of work first day itself. Much exhausting, isn't it?'

'Yeah it is.. But you are being paid for it. SF only pays the one who works here day in and out with necks deep in computers.'

'You sound like that lady.. What her name was..? Yeah Anita. Ha ha..!'

'Well whatever I may sound like but that's the truth. And for now, I think we should get back to our desks before being noticed over here. I probably do not want to get fired out of here the very first day. It has been an hour since we are here.'

She got up to leave, when she suddenly remembered something..
She turned to look at him and spoke, 'Sorry.. I didn't catch your name..'

'Umm Yash Mehra, it is.'
