pragya's pov
I have to thank him today I thought when I was walking downstairs after finishing the shift.at morning he didn't came, there was someone else as the driver.i was waiting at the parking lot.As the cab stopped in front of me,I bend down to see whether it is him or not.my lips curved into a smile seeing him.i got inside the car.when I opened my mouth to talk ,my colleague got inside the car.so I stopped .
He picked up his ringing cell" Haan dadi I ate"........"I am on duty I will call you back"....."did you and Aliya ate the dinner?"I heard him saying these sentences and he hanged his cell.
I slided my body and placed my head on the car headrest thinking that how start the conversation as my colleague got down.i closed my eyes.i don't know when i fell asleep.
"Madamji.... madamji...." I heard his continuous calling.i stirred and slowly opened my eyelids."madamji your house came"
"Huh" I said with sleepy voice.he said" reached your house"
I got down from the car.when I was about to open the gate I heard his voice.i turned "madamji your bag"he forwarded my bag.
I took the bag and smiled at him without acknowledging my smile he turned and walked towards the car.
"Suniye"I called him."pragya"I said he gave a confused look."I am pragya Arora . your name?" asked him with a smile.
"Oh... I am Abhishek mehra"he said. "abhi , friends?"I quickly told him before he walks away."will you be my friend" and forwarded my hand.
"Huh " he saw me shocked at first and then stared at me with bewildered face.After few seconds,he forwarded his hand and said"friends" shaking his hand with mine sticking hesitant smile in his face.
After that incident ,abhi and I became best friends .we always have conversation while going to office and returning to home...it is not a conversation it is one sided talk.mostly I only talk to him about office happenings,that dinosaur mouth team leader,my maa, daily works.....blah blah.sometimes I even talk about gossips ,love affairs between my colleagues.always his reply was "hmm..."and "Haan".
he always call me pragyaji. this irritated me. "abhi why are you calling me pragyaji .i am just 23 but you are making me feel like a 60 years old granny.please don't use the word ji again"I outraged.after a much pressure ,he started calling me as pragya.

"Namaste dadi" I bend down and touched her feet."kush raho putthar"she kept her hand on my head and blessed me.flashback
i asked him to take me to his home."it is very small house pragya . you will feel uncomfortable" he said in a low tone."whether it is small or big that doesn't matter for me I want to see your home.i am asking you for this nearly half a month and you are taking me to your home right now"I said in an ordering tone.he saw me with a defeated look.God only know how much efforts I had put to agree him ....but in his words I literally tortured him with my stupid talks.
end of flashback
I came out of my thoughts when I heard dadi saying "Beta I will bring something for you" without waiting for my reply she gone to kitchen.i followed her and I saw her preparing the food"dadi I don't want anything ". "beta you came to our house for the first time.i will not leave you without eating the food". I smiled. "ok dadi at least I will help you". "you are my grandson's friend .you are also like my granddaughter.i don't like my daughter to work when she comes home for first time .you just sit in abhi's room" said sternly and resumed her work.
i don't know where was his room.i peeped inside the room next to kitchen.the room had a single bed .I entered into it.things were neatly arranged.there was many books in shelves.i gazed around the room.one picture caught my eyes .At the corner ,there was beautiful drawing of mine in a board and at the bottom of board it is written as fuggy.
She came as a boon in his life
