Nyra was setting her things for the next day. They had a meeting with the CEO of Developers Thrill. 

Samaira idolised the man a lot and was very excited about the meeting. And so she wanted everything to be perfect.

And Nyra being the COO of their company had to make sure everything went perfect.

She sighed heavily slumping on her bed. They have been working on everything the whole day.

Nyra's head ached and so she took the bottle of oil and went to her parent's room.

She knocked and entered. She saw her parents sitting on the bed watching a movie. She too sat in front of Pranati and handed her the oil bottle.

Pranati applied a generous amount of oil on her scalp and gave her a head massage.

Nyra felt her headache reduce and she felt sleepy. She was leaning back on Pranati.

"Seedhi baith Nyra."

(Sit straight Nyra.)

"Neend aa rhi hai."

(I am sleepy.)

She mumbled and Pranati stopped the massage.

"Soja phir jaake."

(Go and sleep then.)

"Nhi aap krte rho."

(No you keep doing.)

She said and laid down properly on her lap. Pranati massaged and caressed her hair for some time but when she saw her getting sleepy she woke her up.

"Apne room mai jaa kr so beta. Kachhi neendon mai uthegi aur sar dard hoga."

(Go and sleep in your room. You will wake up mid sleep and your head will ache more.)

She said and Nyra woke up whining. Pranati kissed her head and Nyra left to her.

She slept as soon as her head hit the pillow.

The next day Nyra woke up to the shrill sound of her alarm. She groaned and switched off the alarm, wanting to sleep some time more.

She had just slept again when she felt someone shaking her and shouting her name.

"Pata tha mujhe. Koi faayda hota hai tera alarm lagane ka? Uth Nyra. Late ho jaayenge meeting ke liye."

(I knew it. What is the use of setting alarm? Wake up Nyra. We will be late for the meeting.)

Samaira shook Nyra aggressively, trying to wake her up. 

"Uth gyi baba. Tu aur tera CEO. Sone mat do mujhe."

(I am awake. You and your CEO. Don't let me sleep.)

She whined but woke up lest Samaira slapped her this time.

She was in the bathroom taking a shower lazily. 

"Kitni boring life hai meri bhagwaan. Subah utho, phir office, pura din kaam aur phir ghar aake so jaao. And the cycle continues. Thoda fun add kr dete meri life mai toh kuch ho jata."

(I have such a boring life. Wake up in the morning, then office, work whole day and then come home and sleep. If you had added some fun to it what would have happened.)

Only if she knew how exciting and fun her life was going to be from now. 

She got ready in a simple crop top and jeans and completed her outfit with a jacket on top. She loved crop top and jeans.

She wore a sleek pendant. Another thing she loved a lot.

Applying her favorite shade of nude lipstick she went to Samaira's room to see whether she was ready or not.

Samaira was still getting ready and Nyra said.

"Bas bhi kar ab. Aise ready ho rhi hai jaise koi tere rishte ke liye aa rha ho."

(Stop it now. You are getting ready as if some alliance has come for you.)

Samaira rolled her eyes at her showed her middle finger making her laugh.

"Achha bas baba. Wo tujhe dekhne nhi aa rha. Meeting ke liye aa rha hai."

(Ok fine stop. He is not coming to see you. He is coming for the meeting.)

Samaira took her bag and the two went out.

After making sure everything was perfect they were waiting for them to arrive.

Hearing the news of their arrival Samaira jumped in excitement which wavered a bit seeing their COO instead of the CEO.

Nyra smiled and welcomed them in. The COO entered in last and Nyra was looking at him without blinking.

He looked so damn hot.

'Stop checking him out Nyra.'

She broke out of her reverie and smiled professionally at him. He returned a charming smile.

Samaira asked him about the CEO to which he politely replied that he won't be joining.

Nyra noticed Samaira's mood go down but overall they were happy with the outcome of the meeting.

Nyra got many points from the things and experiences Mahir shared with them which she was surely going to implement.

One thing that irked her was the way he was constantly looking at her. More like staring at her.

Mahir must have realised that Samaira expected the CEO there because he spoke.

"I am sorry but i think aap mere aane se khush nhi hai."

(I think you are not happy to see me here.)

He joked to lighten her mood.

"Nhi Sir. Aisa kuch nhi hai. I am really thankful to you for your valuable time. I just expected ki aapke CEO bhi aayenge."

(No Sir. Its nothing like that. I just expected your CEO too would be here.)

Samaira explained and he spoke.

"I know but bhai kisi se milte nhi hai. He likes to work in silence and let his success make the noise."

(Bhai doesn't meet anyone.)

Nyra frowned looking at him.

"His words not mine. Mai toh do minute bhi chup nhi reh skta. Silence mai kaam karna toh dur ki baat hai. And please don't call me Sir."

(I can't stay silent for even two minutes. Working in silence is a completely different matter.)

Nyra giggled at his statement and he looked at her with smile. She composed herself and shook hands with him.

At night they were sitting in Samaira's room.

"Mahir is such a sweet man. I mean hum rivals hai uske phir bhi he helped a lot."

Nyra scowled remembering how he was staring at her all during the meeting.

"Haan very sweet. Kitni sweetly aankhen phaad phaad kar dekh rha tha. I mean he was not even subtle about it."

(Yes very sweet. How sweetly he was staring.)

Samaira chuckled at her expressions and teased her.

"Shayad bechara tere pyaar mai lattu ho gaya hai."

(Maybe he is in love.)

"Shut up!"

Nyra scowled and threw a pillow at Samaira. She smirked as a sudden thought occurred to her.

"Waise i have an idea. Sab log already kehte hai that we would marry in the same house. And that Mahir has an elder brother jo aapka idol hai. An you seem to like him a little too much. So?"

(Everyone already says we would marry in the same house. And that Mahir has an elder brother is your idol.)

Samaira gaped at her and defended herself saying that she just respected him a lot for achieving so much at such a young age.

"Waise mujhe lag rha hai ye tera plan hai to be subtle and get married to Mahir mujeh tareeka bana kar."

(I think this is your plan to get married to Mahir through me.)

Samaira teased her again and Nyra groaned throwing a pillow at her making her laugh wholeheartedly.

Nyra came to her room after a full teasing session and slumped down on her bed.

Her thoughts involuntarily went to Mahir. He was looking at her but surprisingly his gaze didn't make her uncomfortable. She couldn't explain how it felt.

'Argh! Nyra! Stop thinking about that idiot.'

'Help ki usne teri and this is how he speak about him. Shabash!'

Great! Now her conscience was taking his side. 

His image again formed in her mind and she shook her head trying to dismiss it and slept covering herself from head to toe.
