The Deadly Interview Call

Aman was scared...

He was jobless for four months. He was searching for job here and there but luck was not favouring. 

One day he got a call from a person. He said we have an offer for you. 

Please meet me at the address mentioned below. 

K-10, ABC street, near Seelampur, Delhi. 

Aman was surprised. He rushed. His mom blessed him that this time he will get the job for sure. He ate sweet curd from her hand before leaving. 

His mother was ailing. She was having cancer. She was expected to die anyday though she was living fearlessly. 

Aman, went there. He sat and waited for the reception to call his name. 

There were many candidates for his position. They all were preparing hard. Aman was memoriing the concepts in his mind. He was nervous yet strengthening himself too. 

Names were being called and Aman was waiting for his turn. 

Some faces seemes too sad after interaction with the inchrage and some felt happy and moved for next rounds. 

Soon Aman's turn was called up. 

He went quickly. He greeted the incharge humbly. 

He was asked to tell about himself to which he responded quite good. He was very well dressed and behaved. 

Incharge liked his vibe. 

He was asked to go for the next rounds. 

He went and cleared them all one by one. 

Lastly he was asked for his expected salary. He was advised by someone to be very practical and calculative while quoting the salary. He was advised by his friend to be very cautious as later you do not get chance unless you prove your worth and organisation does not want to loose you. 

He thought and then answered according to last drawn salary, experience, skill set and more. 

HR was earlier reluctant but then seeing Aman and his confidence they agreed. 

Aman was now waiting for the offer letter. They said he will get it tomorrow so he should reach office early morning at around 8 am sharp. 

He said he will die but wont miss it. 

Then suddenly his mom called up. She was coughing badly. She could not find her medicines. She asked Aman ehere had he kept it to which Aman replied Cupboard third locker. He was shouting while driving bike and she was unable to listen. Just in the middle of the road he stopped his bike and suddenly a truck collided with his bike. 

Aman died on the spot. 

Mom found the medicine and thanked him on the phone. 

Aman did not disconnect. She heard all the noise around there. She shouted Aman, Aman are you there. 

Somebody picked up and said....

Madam, his pulse is no more. He collided with a truck just now. We feel he is dead. 

Suddenly she fell on the ground with tears in eyes. 

She died the next day holding the medicines as it is.
