I was shocked to hear all of this.
“Well. Neha. I know you are surprised about this. You read about the investment news recently right?”
“Yes Sir.”
“Raj is MD’s son. He is the future of the company. When such a big deal is happening. What was Raj doing? He broke up with his gf and he wanted to sleep with you.”
“Wow! You are right”
“Neha. You want to say something to me?”
“Well Sir….”
“Don’t hesitate, be open. Ask me”
“Sir, how do you know all of this?”
He laughed and he said “Ever since Raj got drug overdose. His father has asked me to spy on him. I have my way of knowing things. My eyes are always on him”
“Well Sir. Why didn’t you tell me all of this before?”
“Well Neha. If I told you all of this, Would you agree to the deal?”
“I would not rejected it”
“That’s exactly the problem with you Neha”
I kept a question mark face.
“You enjoyed sleeping with him…”
I said angrily “I never said that Sir”
“Come on Neha, promise on your soul and tell me you didn’t enjoy.”
I had no words. “Ok Sir. I did enjoy it. So what?”
“Well Neha. You enjoyed it because you knew nothing about him. You just got carried away by his behavior. You enjoyed it because you focused only on enjoyment. Not on judgement”
“What are you trying to say sir?”
“Well. Neha. You are wasting your time working for the company.”
“Go on….”
“You have a long bright future. You can lead a much better life. You are so beautiful. Girls like you shouldn’t be here”
“Sir, what are you saying?”
“Well Neha. You are a good student during college days. Your certificates say that. You worked hard 3 years for this company. They didn’t recognize you. Now you are again in same situation as before. You want to work where there is no future or you want to start a new life?”
“Sir, are you offering me a job?”
“Well Neha. What difference does it make? You will be doing the same in another company as what you are doing right now. You will be struggling”
“Sir, Then why are you telling me this?”
Aswin handed a card to me. It says “Amit” on the card and below is his phone number. There is nothing else on the card.
“Sir, what’s this?”
“Meet this person. He will tell you more”
“Sir, I need to think about this”
“Neha. Stop thinking. You are always thinking.”
“Sir, I need some time”
“Well Neha. I am just trying to offer you a better life. Its your choice”
“May I know who this person is and what he is?”
“Well Neha. He is definitely not a serial killer” he said sacrastically.
“What would I get if I hurt you, anyway? I let out many secrets to you today because I trusted you. You also trust me right? Just meet this person”
“ok Sir.”
“Well Neha, you asked me why I am still doing this job Right? Well, let’s just say that my source of income is not just salary. I do have have other sources of earnings. One such source is the money given by MD to me to spy on his own son. I will talk about this in detail when we meet next time”
The meeting was over. Aswin left the place. I started thinking about the meeting we just had. I decided to call this person. I dialed the number.
