I don't love her

Bureau-

Thankfully Ayush doesn't face ACP sir's wrath as the latter is late himslf.

"Krishna sir, you know we enjoyed a lot in your party. l again want a party...", said Arun.

"Arun..we need a occasion to celebrate..", said Abhi.

Abhi, Krishna, Arun and Pradeep are talking while rest of the watch the scene with a smile on their face.

"Let's do one thing Abhi! You marry Dr Suhasini fast, then we can have a party!", said Pradeep with a wink.

"Why are you spouting nonsense before our juniors Pradeep!", said Abhi shyly.

Krishna interrupts.

"Sir! Not only you, everyone should get marry. Pradeep sir, Ali sir, Arun, Naveen sir, Kavin, Ayush all .."

The officers he mentioned get tensed.

" Dear junior, l don't want to spend my life washing clothes" Pradeep jokes.

"and ... l will marry after the marriages of Abhi sir and Pradeep sir .." Naveen(senior after Pradeep and Abhi) concludes.

"And when it comes to me...l even don't have any girlfriend..he..Ayush should get married first with his childhood friend -", said Kavin.

Ayush is annoyed and said, "What is this guys. l just said the truth because you forced me. Why are you saying such things.",

"Can anyone tell me what is happening?.." Naveen is confused.

"Sir that day you went home early… then..", Krishna narrates the story of Ayush.

"Sir please. Its not like I love her! She was my bestie! And l want to meet her. That's it-", said Ayush defending himself.

"Yes Ayush.. Anything...but the truth is that you love her.." Kavin teases again.

Ayush makes a face and goes to sit by his desk.

"ok guys, stop teasing him!" Naveen stops Kavin. Arun and others goes to take a chair beside Ayush.

"come on man! Don't take it seriously. Loving a person is not a bad thing..", said Pradeep.

Ayush is still a bit angry and hurt and said, "but l don't love her sir. I mean I like her a lot. I don't know how l like her. lt has been ten years that l met her"

"This love I very magical ... we don't know when and how it comes... and it not true that the person we love should always stay with us.

Ayush keeps mum and Naveen goes on…

"You didn't met her in these past years, right. But why are trying this much desperately to meet her? You would have many friends to whom you lost contact right? Then why?"

Ayush is speechless. His lips form an 'o' and Naveen laughs at this.

"This is love which makes you speechless. l personally feel that you love her. Its ok if you don't accept it. But main l will help you so that you can meet her...", said Naveen and left after patting him on shoulder.

Ayush is pulled into thoughts. His mind is jammed, before he could answer ACP sir enters.

There's no new case and so the officers chat for a bit before doing some paperwork. ACP sir is busily talking with some clients in his cabin.

An hour passed and Ayush is back to his normal self.

"sir this is the file that you asked..."

"Yes.. thanks Arun.."

Ayush then goes to greet Saryu who grimaces at the sight of Ayush.

Saryu(in low voice)- "speak of devil"

Divya-"Devil? Sir is so cute.."

Saryu(angrily)-"shut up Divs! That demon. cute? (sees him) means ok but average."

Saryu and Divya stop talking as Ayush comes to stand by their desk..

Ayush-"Is the file completed Saryu?"

Saryu-"uh- sir I am doing that file sir.."

Ayush (angrily)-"Do you need two days to complete a file? Only the updation of database is left...and till now you didn't prepare the list".

Saryu(trying to defend herself)- "sir there are so many jails, many criminals, and I am alone.. and above that comparing these many files and then to edit it...it take some time sir. And we can ask for latest list from jails or we can download from there database… "

Ayush(smiles)- "We can do..but it cannot be considered as work, but work theft... and you should learn how to work."

Saryu (bored look)-"But sir-"

Ayush(smilingly)-"You need to learn, right?"

Saryu-"but sir-"

"Stick to work Saryu-" ( he leaves saying this)

"Demon!", she shouts in her mind.
