Many questions is running in my head who is he. Am I able to do work with him peacefully like Mr. Mathew. What happened if he will fire me just for a mistake.
............................................................................

We entered the C.E.O cabin. A muscular figure is standing on the wall size glass window, facing his back to us. His both hand in his trousers pant's pocket.

"Hello Mr. Kapoor..how's your flight from U.S.A." Mr. Matthew greeted him.
The figure looked familiar to me. It's like I seen him before.

Realization hit me. No it can't be him. It can't be Siddharth. Please God help me.
I'm not ready to face him.

The figure turns slowly towards us and my eyes open widely because of shock. Floor slides under my feet looking at him. He is standing in front of me which my heart crave for since past two years, looking as handsome as I saw him two years before. But something is missing in him. His eyes has no colour, almost nothing. He looked very tired like he is carrying the whole world on his shoulder. It felt like he also don't know when he last smile.

His coffee brown eyes looking at me without any shock unlike mine like he is expecting me here.

My heart beats increased rapidly and ready to jump out of his rib cage. He is in front of me after two years. My heart pray every night to God to see him once and he is standing in front of me with his all glory.

Our gaze met and I felt moisture in my eyes. Tears are welled up in my eyes making my vision blur. I wanted to run from there and Burris myself in a dark room where he could not see me.

Tears fell from my eyes and I turn myself facing my back towards him and wipe my tears. I don't wanted show him my tears.

May be he is not feeling the same as I feel for him. Maybe I'm just a normal person to him. But he is the one who stole my heart. He is the only one which my heart crave. He is my everything.

I took a deep breath to calm myself and turn to him again. Our gaze met again but I turn my head and look at Mr. Mathew. I can feel his gaze bore holes to my skin.

"Called me Siddharth uncle. You are Dad's friend and a father figure to me and I'm fine Mr. Mathew. " he said while looking at me. They both shake their hands.

Mr. Matthew laughed heartily.

"You are right son. How's your dad." Mr. Matthew asked Siddharth.

"He missed you." He said now looking at Mr. Mathew.

"I will meet him. Now meet your P.A Preeti Agarwal. She is the best P.A I could ever asked. She is one of the best P.a I have ever had." Mr. Matthew introduced to us unknown the fact that we both already know each other very closely.

Siddharth look at me from head to toe like he wanted to know how am I changed in two years. He forward his hand for a hand shake. I look at him and then his hand. I don't want to touch him in any aspects because I know if I feel his warmth again I became vulnerable and I don't want to show my vulnerability to him.

The way he looking at me I control myself not to run to him and end up in his arms. My heart is aching to be in his arms.

I joint my both hand as Namaste.

"Welcome to India Mr. Kapoor." I said try to look confident.

I saw him fisted his both hand and clenched his jaw. He do when he is angry on something. What I did to him to make him angry. I'm nothing to him.

Mr Matthew laughed at both of us.

"So Siddharth as per your request Ms. Preeti is working for you from now on. Now I will take my leave. I have a important meeting which I have to attend before leaving to London. Preeti you stay here." Mr. Matthew said, walking towards the gate leaving Siddharth and I alone in his office.

We both looking at each other for awhile. I had so many questions which my heart ask him through my eyes. My heart tells me to run to his arms and hug him tightly and will tell him how I much I missed him in those two years. For sometime we both don't say anything.

An uncomfortable silence is fell around us.

"How are you princess..?" He asked me breaking the uncomfortable silence between us.

Why he is calling me a princess. He has wife to called princess. I am not anyone's princess. Because this princess's heart is broken. I wanted to say him but I didn't.

"My name is Preeti Sir and thankyou I'm fine." I said looking at him. He hold my gaze for while. I felt like he wanted to say me something but don't have words to put in. I can't hold his gaze more so I bent my had down and lower my eyelids don't wanted to look at him. Tears are ready to fell from my eyes but I control them.

I heard a footsteps coming closer to me. I felt a body warmth of another body near me and I know who it is.

"Preeti...I'm so..." before he can completed what he saying the door of his office opened.

"Sorry Sid..I forgot something. Will you give me those file." Mr. Matthew entered in the cabin. I looked at Mr. Matthew and then him. He is standing very close to me. When I realized our closeness I step back from him and make my distance to him.

"Which one." I asked looking at mr. Methew.

"The one on the table. I put it there when I came to welcome Sid." He said pointed to the file on table.

I nodded my head and take the file from the table.when I was about to give the files to mr. Matthew my leg tripped on my sandals , Siddharth came forward to hold me from falling but before he can hold me, I hold the table to balance myself from falling but all the files in my hand fell on the floor.

"Oo..preeti you are such a clumsy girl. Are you alright?" Mr. Matthew said while chuckling.

I gave him a small smile and nodded my head. I bent myself to collect the pages of file. I saw the corner of my eyes that Siddharth is also bend to help me.

I started picking the page from the floor and arranging them into the file. While picking the pages Siddharth's hand brushed to mine. I felt the same spark, same sensation in my whole body which I missed since two years. We both look at eachother and our gaze met.
