He is not well

The next day when Sora came to office she saw Reyhan was not present beside her assistant Rubina. So she asked Rubina 'where is her subordinate?' and got an answer that he does not come that day and applied for a leave.

Sora got very tensed once she got to know this. She decided to call Krish but when his phone rang she saw him coming towards her through corridor.

"Where is Mr. Reyhan?", Sora asked.

"He will not come today as he is not feeling well.", He replied.

"What happened?", Sora was anxious to know.

"He was not able to sleep yesterday and as usual he worked overnight. He was already tired due to lots of work he is doing from past many days so he exhausted himself. The result he got sick in morning.", Krish explained.

"Then why did not you stop him from overworking and waited till he got sick?", Sora asked in annoy.

"I did."

"Then?"

"It's fine, at least he didn't drink alcohol to sleep like others," Noah said.

"What do you mean?", Sora furrowed her brows.

"Ms. Brook," Krish interrupted her, "I would like to talk as his friend instead of your colleague."

"Humm. Go ahead.", Sora startled a little, as Krish never used this tone with her before.

Krish continued,"Why he is here you knows it well. He does not need to be in company but just because of someone he can give his all lifetime here. He keeps himself busy with work the entire day and even after being tired when he can't sleep he just disappears from home and comes back after visiting that someone's place. He feels refreshed and then again start to work so that he can give his best to this company like a true pillar he used to be. But last day something happened and he collapsed."

Sora understood it must be after their discussion in her office that affected him and he did not show it last day.

Krish's gaze turned into a narrowed one, "Now he will not be a trouble at least when he is not well so everyone should be happy about it." There was bitterness and a little resentment in his words towards Sora.

Sora could say nothing. That was the caring friend who was worried about Reyhan.

Krish didn't apologize for his last rude words to her and left after his answer to her. Sora was feeling guilty about it. 'I know, I am responsible for it. I thought he would be fine away from me. What should I do with him now?'

Aryan who heard it all silently, came to Sora. She looked at him and he said, "Don't worry about him. He is one strong man. He will be fine."

Sora just hummed but does not feel good after it. Her whole day was in grumpy mood as if she does not want to do anything but to know how is he. There is no way that Krish will tell her after his encounter with her in morning.

--- Last day ---

Once Reyhan left Sora's office and all the employees left for home, mostly Reyhan works till late but he did not stayed and reached home. Krish followed Reyhan to his room. All the time Krish had noticed Reyhan had so much in his mind but was suppressing everything inside.

Once Reyhan settled on the couch, Krish sat near him and asked, "What happened? It seems you are not feeling well."

"I am fine," Reyhan replied and leaned back on the headrest of couch as he closed his eyes.

"What are you thinking about?", Krish asked.

Reyhan stayed quiet for a while and spoke, "Feels like whatever I do or whatever I try, she does not want to give me a chance." One can see he is helpless and his hopes are crushing down.

"We knew it will be not easy after our returns, which took long time. But you need some time and hell lot of efforts", Krish Suggested.

Reyhan sighed as he still has his eyes closed.

"All are my efforts are going in vain. She choose to be away from me rather to be with me by my side. She wants to hurt me deliberately so that I can give up on her and at the same time she does not want to give me any chance." His eyes turned little moist.

Krish can see his hidden pain as he has closed his eyes enough to make him show what Reyhan was feeling at this moment. He knew Reyhan is very patient man but now looking at him he was worried about him thinking he will break down.

"Reyhan, everything will be alright. Just be calm and think what you can do to make it happen", he spoke calmly.

"Humm, don't worry I am not planning to give up on her....yet", Reyhan spoke in very soft voice.
