Volunteering at events was a not at all easy job. Although per day wage was really enticing, lot of students did not prefer to do it, due to the type of work they were expected to do. Some event organizers would be professional and treat the volunteers with respect, while some of them would treat these young kids like their own property. And girls had to face the prying eyes of the men. Nishant and Shradha were working on product launch event on one of the weekends. They were supposed to be distributing pamphlets and explaining the product features in a local mall. There were few other volunteers as well and all of them were trying their best to attract customers to the booth so that their target could be met.
There was a girl with butterfly hairpin who was beautiful, but she was clad in thick makeup. She had been trying her best to use her physical attributes to attract customers. Despite of trying very hard to look graceful and elegant, she was not a match to Shradha. With her thick long hair, bare minimum makeup and professional attire, Shradha looked really attractive and She had been trying her best to be polite while explaining the product features to the customers. Nishant could tell that, Shradha was trying her best to look professional and finish her target. Nishant had also seen that the other girl looking at Shradha with jealousy. Despite of all her efforts Shradha had surpassed this girl and was closer towards the target. Irked by this, the butterfly girl started to intervene when Shradha was speaking to the customers. Initially Shradha ignored the butterfly girl, but soon she became very difficult to ignore.
Unable to control her irritation, Shradha took the butterfly girl to the side and asked " what's your problem? Why do you keep coming in between when I am explaining the product?"
"Why are you shouting at me? I was just trying to help. It looked like you were struggling and I tried to help. "
"Girl, please stop all the drama. I can clearly see that you are jealous that I am able to attract more customers than you. Just concentrate on the work instead of trying to cause problems to me. "
"Why will I be jealous of you! Clearly you think highly of yourself."
By this time, other volunteers noticed the argument between Shradha and butterfly girl. So they tried to break the argument. Nishant tried his best to calm Shradha down who looked like she was about to burst with anger. Shradha turned around murmuring "dumb chic. I dunno why she is trying to pick fight with me when both of us are here only for money. " butterfly girl caught some words and she shouted in anger, " you slut! I know you were just trying to attract people by showing off your assets. I know your type. Just because of good looks you think you can conquer the world using your body.."
"Smack" Before the butterfly girl could finish talking slapping sound was heard. Shradha was standing before the girl, fuming. Everyone was shocked and no one reacted for a minute.
"Don't think I will go easy on you! keep your nonsense to yourself or I don't know what else I will do!" Shradha looked really scary when she threatened butterfly girl who had started to cry.
Nishant quickly said sorry to the girl and dragged angry Shradha outside. It took almost half an hour to calm Shradha down. They had almost reached their target. So they left the place. Later in the day, Nishant had to use all of his 'good boy's charm to apologize to the agent. The agent was really angry and was shouting at Nishant. Only after repeated apologies and little bit of begging, the agent calmed down and told Nishant to handle his girlfriend's temper. Nishant did not even try to correct the agent for calling Shradha his girlfriend and left the office.
When Nishant tried talking to Shradha about the incident she dismissed the matter saying it was not a big deal and she had had bigger fights in the past. Nishant swore in his mind not to anger Shradha ever again or he would not know what she would do to him!
