Ruhi's Pov

It was almost 11pm when I finished my work. Tomorrow we have an important meeting with Mr. Parker. Everything is ready as I don't like mistakes

So, I am Ruhi. I shifted to New York for my studies and established my company here. A&N Company is one of the topmost companies in New York. Well, I am from Rajasthan,India but due to some reason I came here.

I left my cabin and startedmoving towards the parking area. Lights of mostly all cubicles is off. It's late I know but I don't have anything or anyone to return early to my house. Mr. Sharma came after I sat in my car. He has been like this from the past few months. He always leaves the company after me so if I need any help he can be there.

"Good night mam, drive safe" Mr. Sharma said with a bright and charming smile. I didn't find most of the smile genuine. People used to smile and talk sweetly with me to get their intentions done. But by looking at Mr. Sharma I knew if he smiles then it's from his heart. His eyes and heart are pure.

"Good night Mr. Sharma" I said and moved out of the parking lot. I didn't knew why I was returning to my house. I had no reasons to live except my company and two close people.

I reached my mansion. It radiated power and wealth. Just a status symbol. It lacked warmth of a home which I had lost 6 years ago. But I never want that home again in my life

I directly walked to my bedroom. I ignored all the things on which I spent more than half my money. It didn't attract me.

Dinner was already set on the dinning table as I walked towards the kitchen. I silently sat there having my meal alone. No one to talk or speak about my day. I was again drowning in my thoughts when suddenly a ring disturbed me.

I checked the caller id and a wide smile replaced the usual frown. I picked the video call and smiled brightly at him.

"Hey Aaditya,how are you? Why didn't you call me when you reached California? I was so tensed you moron. And when are you returning back? Did you have your dinner? Everything is okay right? You called at this time so I hope you are fine?" I ranted to him

"Calm down my buttercup. How can answer all these questions in one go? Well, actually I forgot to charge my phone so I couldn't connect to you. I will be returning day after tomorrow. Once this deal is signed. And yes I had my dinner. Everything is perfect. Anyways I have you what would happen to me?!" He answered calmly. He knew me well to understand my concern. I only had few people to call has mine. I smiled

"That good to know Coco" I said and started laughing seeing his face. Aaditya is my childhood bestfriend. We were the most craziest trio who did alot of pranks in school and used to get scolded. Aarushi, Aaditya's Twin and the most silent person of our group. But she didn't chose me. But he did. He trusted me enough to support me. After our boards Aaditya had come to New York for further studies. We somehow lost touch but things and situations changed and he helped me. I am forever grateful to him

"Buttercup, don't call me that it sounds like a dog" he whined. Another thing about him. He is the baby of our group. He was pampered the most by us. But contrary to it, to the outside world he is rude and arrogant just like me.

"Baby, don't be sad. Dogs are more useful than you" I said and laughed. He fake glared at me and then we both again burst out laughing

"You look ravishing while laughing like this buttercup" he tried speaking huskily. He and his flirting.

"Well, I would like to be ravished", I paused" but surely not by you" I said seductively and winked at him

We would behave like everything with each other. Sometimes flirt sometimes fight, sometimes bicker.

"Did you catch that mole in your company?" He asked shifting the conversation. I just smirked. He understood

"So what's his punishment?" He asked with a smirk plastered on his face as well. He knew the answer well

"Death" I said. His smirk grew wider. He enjoyed playing with lives

"You should have waited, I would have enjoyed killing him myself" he whined again. I knew he surely loved giving pain to others.

"Hang up now Coco, I have a meeting early tomorrow. Bye. Love you" we bid each other. My smile slowly disappeared. I am alone again with this walls.

I tried to get some sleep but kept tossing around. I can sleep only for 2 hours. I sighed and started doing my work. Around 4 I dozed off. But woke up with a jolt and sweat beads on my body. Again a nightmare.

I went to my mansion's gym and later freshened up myself for my further day.
