Mike went ahead to get the door.
A delivery guy gave him a cake and a big flower bouquet of baby's breath. Instantly after seeing the flowers, Mike understood it was from Vikram. He brought in the bouquet and cake inside and said,
"Did you order all this Vikram?"
Vikram grinned within as everything was going as planned.
"Yeah, I did. I thought that Akira would definitely crack the interview, so to celebrate I had pre-ordered cake and flowers. How presumptuous of me", he said in a sulky and dejected tone. He deliberately sighed in despair and looked at Akira and said,
"I am sorry Akira. I had no intention of mocking you. I didn't know that you won't be selected. I had ordered everything yesterday itself. I made sure that everything was your favorite starting from Red Velvet Cake to the flowers. But little did I know that you would be in a mess today. I am really sorry if I have gone overboard and have hurt you Akira."
