Stage

After taking the lift and walking a bit, he reached the auditorium. It was a large dome shaped building which was attached to the company. When he entered the auditorium, he saw that there were many tables and chairs, around which many people were sitting. They were talking and laughing a bit. And seeing the lighting and the decorations, there should have been some short of event going on.

Om looked around and saw two middle-aged man walking towards him. One of them was the department head, Ravindra Gupta. And the other one was…The Big Boss of the company. His name was Arjun Singh. He was a local celebrity of some sort in New Delhi. There were many stories about how he had single-handedly made the company grow so much that it was such a large one now. He is known for his unbreakable promises and his strict and determined nature. Seeing such a grand figure approaching him, Om started to feel a little nervous now.

When the two reached where he was, Om immediately greeted Arjun passionately.

"Good morning, Boss."

"Oh! Good morning. So, you are the one that Ravindra trusts so much? Hmm. Alright. I will leave everything to you. It's up to you now to save my face today otherwise I won't be able to show my face again. Now, go on the stage and do whatever you do. And don't worry, there will be rewards too. I have to attend some people so I will be going now." Arjun said all this hurriedly and went away.

Om was dumbfounded hearing all this. Ravindra trusts me? It's more like he hates me the most. And what was that about saving your face? What is happening here? Please, someone tell me what's going on.

Om looked at Ravindra who had amiable smile on his face until Arjun was there but it changed to a cold face as soon as Arjun left. He looked at Om and said with a gloating smile on his face, "Go now. You have to entertain all these guests here until the main star of the show comes. Because he is late, all of them have to sit like that for a while but because the boss had promised everyone that they won't get bored in this party so, you have to do something to entertain them. If you are successful in this task you will get quite a lot of rewards from the boss. But if you fail, no one can guarantee if you will be able to keep your job. Good luck entertaining them."

As Ravindra said till here, he turned around and left, leaving a dumbfounded Om behind. Suddenly it felt like there were two large boulders weighing down his chest. He had a little trouble breathing because of that. Unknowingly, he had made his way towards the stage. There was a mic right at the center of the stage. Om slowly made his way behind the mic and grabbed it with his hand and tapped on it twice to check whether or not it is working.

If someone looked at his face right now, you would see his face half-smiling. There was no sense of discomfort or forcefulness in his smile. And this was truly so. Because when he was walking towards the stage he was constantly thinking about the solution to this problem when he suddenly realized that something was amiss. When he searched the memories of the previous Om, he found that everything in this world was different than his own world. Movies, superstars, songs, literature, and a little bit of history too. Many of the things that had happened in his world didn't happen in this world. He immediately decided to use something from his memory to help him get out of this predicament. But he couldn't figure out what to use at this moment.

Looking at the stage, he remembered a similar thing in his memory. And now, looking at the people, he gradually started to calm down. He looked at the boss who was sitting at the center on a big sofa and then at Ravindra. He closed his eyes, exhaled a bit and then opened his eyes.

He softly spoke, "Good morning everyone present here. I am Om, a little office worker in this large company. And today I am here because of a series of accidents. Because of the main star of this event is a little late today, I was given this heavy burden to entertain you all. But as an ordinary office worker, I don't know much about entertainment."

"Hmm? What is this lad speaking all this bullsh*t for? We are here for entertainment not to hear your speech. Shut the f*ck up and get down that stage." Shouted a middle-aged man from a corner.

"Yeah! Get down!"

"We don't want to hear your speech"

"Is this considered to be breaking of promise from Arjun? Is this the day Arjun breaks his promise for the first time?"

"His legend will end today because of this boy. Hahahahaha"

Hearing all this, Arjun's eyebrows wrinkled a bit. But he didn't say anything and just kept on listening to what Om had to say.

"But this doesn't stop me from telling you guys a part of my experience from my childhood. And it is about a very odd topic- Porn"

As everyone heard this, the whole hall went silent. This word had grabbed all their attentions as they came to interest.
