Unexpected Love

       

It's freezing out today .Do you think it will snow today ?,my co-worker asked .

May- be I replied back, piling the papers.

Hey, by-the way boss wants to have a word with you, she said looking at the clock .

I moved my chair and sauntered towards the main office, when I opened the door she asked me to sit and offered a coffee .

I was amazed by her sudden change of behaviour, I mean she used to bicker everytime we meet . Yet, this time she was calm and smiling like a child .

My brain uttered, something is fishy and I was about to take a sip of coffee when she broke the horrible news to me, that I have to take interview of a famous millionaire .

Yes, I am a reporter of yz news, although it's not my dream job, but I guess it was written on my stars, so here I am, trying my best to fit in .

So, I should feel lucky, as a reporter this is a great opportunity to bag a promotion .

But, I don't want it and even nobody would like it too, as this man we are talking about is rude arrogant brat .

I was about to decline her offer, when she gave me ultimatum, that if I am not doing interview, then I should forget about job .

Although I too want to kick this job away, but it gives me money to survive and secondly I don't want to roam in streets looking for work, in this chilly winter.

So I gladly accepted her offer, collected some important papers and head over to my desk to search for him .

After jotting important details on the paper, I head back home and prepared everything for the exclusive interview .

Finally the day came where I have to meet that devil, I got dressed up early, checked everything and drove off to his company .

My stomach was churning since morning and my hands are sweating more then usual, even my mind is playing horrible scenarios .

Although I am very bold and confident type of person, yet this time his mere name is giving me shiver .

Somehow, I managed to walk inside his company and to the cabin where interview is going to be happen, still my heart is beating rapidly .

I was fixing my watch, when I heard heavy footsteps coming towards me .

I stopped moving and stood still like a robot, who have lost all his senses .

"Here have some water ", a voice brought me back.

I took a sigh of relief ! and gazed at the owner of the voice, a sudden chill ran over my spine and with shaking hands grabbed the glass .

Are you alright, he asked piercing his eyes on me .

Yeah - I - I am fine, my voice stuttered with anxiety .

Calm down breathe in, okay! relax a bit, he said with his almond like black eyes .

I was lost in his eyes, when he added, if you are not feeling alright then we can conduct this interview on some- other day .

Oh ! no - no I am fine, it's just my health is little off, I lied .

I can't tell him that I am getting panic due to him, although he is not that rude, still I should maintain my composure, I thought .

Okay ! alright then let's start the interview, he said while sitting on the couch .

I nodded my head lightly and set up everything, I was about to question him when he excused himself and walked outside .

I felt little annoyed one because he left in middle and second this winter is making me mad, I really need coffee, I was wondering .

When he came with two cup of coffee, placed one in front of me and sipped the other one .

I was trying to process his gesture, I mean I have never imagined him to be this nice .

"What", I am not a cold hearted arrogant brat, he commented .

I felt guilty for believing those stupid rumors and to bad-mouthed about him . 

I broke my trance and thanked him for the coffee.

Anyways, be comfortable and if you need anything feel free to ask, don't worry I will not eat you, he said .

I nodded my head in response and thought, can he read my expression .

Still I must say I am impressed from his personality both by his actions and physically . 

So interview was finally started and as time passed I felt comfortable around him.

He was totally different person and I was realising it with every answer he was giving.

He told me even about his divorce and why people thought him to be cruel .

I mean if they both are not happy with this relationship, so it's okay to break it down .

He took a pause and added further, even if I become too lenient with my staff, then they will not value my words, it's not like I don't care about them, still I have to be strict to maintain a decorum .

Yeah I can relate to this, my boss she is very strict when it comes to work, yet when anyone needs help, she will be first to extend her hand for help, I added .

My questions soon turned to casual conversations and the happy part was that we both were enjoying it .

Soon clock struck 2 and he asked me for lunch, I want to decline the offer, yet his warmness captivated me .

Food was delicious and I must say his choice of restaurant is also wonderful .

After lunch we head back to his office and continued our interview .

Our conversations moved from interview to our interests, as if we want to know everything about each - other .

But soon time swayed us apart and I had to leave .

However this interview gave a positive change to me and I promised myself to correct his image .

I went home prepared a report on him and tried my best to portray his real image on that piece of paper .

My boss first didn't approve this, but I manage to convince her by emotional blackmailing .

Soon this news made a chaos, in market and some people started corrupting my name too.

Still I didn't give up and he too addressed the media himself clearing my name out .

Initially after some drama, we were successful and I even won the award for my loyalty .

He was elated with news and thanked me with asking me out .

Oh sorry !, I forget to mention you, we went on couple of dinner and lunch in amidst this drama, which slowly bonded us .

Now it's almost one month since we start dating, we have not announced it publically, as people would spill mud on us .

So, it's better in this way, still it's worth it to find someone who can handle my tantrum and mood swings .

After few months, he successfully establish his two more branches and I was promoted as head reporter, it's all because of his support.

We fight a lot though, but eventually the red invisible fate string will brought us back .

Although our love was not that easy cause we can't address each - other in public and to be true it is annoying sometimes, but my heart knows how much love he has for me and this feeling will make me happy again .

Sometimes you fall in love with the most unexpected person at the most unexpected time and I guess this really define my story .

I know my story is not perfect, still it's enough for me, cause now I have a shoulder to cry, a warm embrace on depressed day and a coffee waiting for me to soothe my mind .

I think the most beautiful thing, you could ever experienced is finding someone who wants your all . Even if your all is mess . I feel really blessed to have him by my side .

After almost two years of our relationship, I proposed him for marriage in front of city square, it's embarrassing for me though and it really caused chaos again, although we were not afraid now to speak our heart out .

He was extremely happy and accepted my proposal and announced me as his true love

Despite of the drama, we married successfully and continued our work .

Now, we are in mid 40's cherishing our love with our two children.
