10 AM

The next day, everyone was working as usual. Aliya was in her cabin. Rishi was in his cabin. Although the day had started normally, but the atmosphere was something different. Everyone, especially the 'males' were working energetically. Aliya was also excited. Because an exceptionally gorgeous guest was about to arrive. And she was none other than Bhavna Kapoor. Aliya was excited to see her another 'bff' Bhavna. Of course they chat and call each other on a regular basis but it had been ages since they had met each other. And her beauty was widely known. Her face was termed as 'divine'. And she was the 'national crush' for all. Aliya was up in the airs. First it was Anushka who made her previous two days go awesome and now it is Bhavna.

Suddenly there was a terrific hullabaloo in the company. When Aliya went out of her cabin to investigate she was overwhelmed to see Bhavna who was standing a little far from her cabin. She was surrounded by Aliya's colleagues who were busy giving Bhavna bouquets and gifts. Seeing this commotion, Rishi entered the scene and seeing him everybody automatically became 'normal human beings'. Aliya was still standing outside her cabin. When Rishi and Bhavna were heading towards meeting hall, Bhavna noticed Aliya and she passed on a smile to her. Aliya giggled thinking that her superstar friend had noticed her and smiled at her.

After some hours, Bhavna entered Aliya's cabin. They both hugged each other in the way celebrities do, a 'poised' hug. That was way different than what Anushka and Aliya do. Aliya asked

”How come you are here?”

”Do you remember I had told you that I bagged a big project? Well it is your company.”

”Oh! Again a surprise! So you also thought that you will surprise me by directly coming here and revealing....

”Yeah, exactly! But wait... Who else thought this idea before me?”

”Anushka!”

”REALLY!! Did she visit you?”

”Yes, she was here for two days. She left today morning.”

”So what was the surprise? Is she going to marry a hunk?”

”Naah! How can you even think that she'll ever marry someone!”

”That's true!”

”She is the new in charge of our area. And that was her surprise!”

”Oho! I'll congratulate her later. But you're getting a lot of surprises nowadays, uh?”

”I know what you're saying. All is well.”

”Then let it be. So you know na that I'll be on a campaign with your company?”

”Yes I know.”

”So when the magazine will have its launch function, our A.B.A trio will reunite, okay?”

”As you say, master!”

”So I'll take your leave. See you soon.”

”Take care.”
