Zinu said nothing and got up from the bed. Both friends hired a taxi and reached their room. Zinu directly went to her room and closed the door. Buli wanted to go after her. But she knew that her friend needs time to digest the shocking news. So, she let her go.
Zinu could not believe that she is pregnant. She missed her periods and it was common for her. Sometimes she got her periods once in three months also. So, she suspected nothing when she missed her periods for two months. Does that mean she is three months pregnant? She was feeling some morning sickness, but again she thought that it was a gastric problem.
"My god!! How my mother would react when she came to know about her pregnancy? What can I do? I don't even know the person with whom I slept. I even didn't saw his face. What will I do now? I am not ready for bearing a child. I am only twenty. How can I give birth to a child? "
Yes. She slept with a person with whom she never met. She thought about the fateful day of her life, on which day she unknowingly slept with a stranger. she never thought that that day would change everything in her life.
....FLASHBACK....
Three months ago ...
It was raining heavily. Both of them could not go to college due to heavy rain. In the afternoon Zin had to go to her office alone as Buli was not feeling well. I Zinu hired a taxi and went to her workplace. Generally, she couldn't afford a taxi, but it is not a good choice to go alone in rain by bus.
As she reached the office Lilly, the assistant of her boss informed her that her boss was waiting for her. Zinu reached the cabin of her boss and wished him. He smiled
"Come Zinu,come. Sit here. I have a very important task for you. You know our company is facing some problems for someday. So, I have decided to get an investment of some prominent business person in the country in our company. I was trying to meet them but never got a chance. But now I think I got a chance. See this. "
He handed her a beautiful envelope. After opening the envelope she saw an invitation card for a welcome party of a prominent business man's grandson, who returned from country A after his studies. The businessman wanted a grand welcome to his sole heir. So he invited each and every businessman in the country. The party would be held in a five-star hotel on the day after tomorrow. She read the card ask him.
"Now, what can I do for you, sir? It is good that you can meet many rich businessmen and pursue them for investment. " Her boss smiled.
"Smart girl. My dear Zinu, only you can make them invest in my company." He added," You have to accompany me to the party and try to talk with some prominent people. Zinu if you help me this time I will double your bonus for the next two months. Please Zinu. I am like your uncle. Please help your uncle this time."
Zinu thought for a minute. It is a very good offer. She needs money for her mother's full body checkup. The doctor advised her mother's full body checkup three months back. But she couldn't afford it. Now if she accepts the offer then she would be able to do a check-up of her mother. Her mothers' health is deteriorating day by day. She has to accept the offer.
Her boss is not a bad person. He is a middle-aged man with a happily married life. Her boss also likes her very much because she was a very hardworking employee. He always treats her as his niece. Apart from her assigned duties, she helped her boss to complete many assignments. She has a good knowledge of managing any assignments.
Her boss offered her to be the manager of the financial department of the company. But she rejected politely. She was a regular student of graduation. So, she only does the night shift.
She was very happy because next week her examination for last semester would start. After the result, she would be able to join the company as a manager. Her hard life would be easy.
"Zinu, what are you thinking? Would you help me?" She came back to reality from her dreamland. "Ok, sir. I will accompany you. I will reach the hotel in time. "
"Thank u very much Zinu. You have saved me again. " Her boss said.
As Zinu left her boss's cabin he called her again.
"Zinu, my dear child, Miss Lilly will help you to select a dress and accessories for the party. Please accompany her to King mall tomorrow."
She shocked. She could never afford King mall for anything in her dreams also.
" No sir I will buy my dress myself. Thank you for your offer" Zinu said.
Mr. Ronald smiled.
"Zinu, I know you don't like to take help from others for your personal things. But this is what I am offering as an uncle. Not as an employer. Think this is the Christmas gift advance. Please accept it." Zinu sighed. She knew if she would deny this offer, her boss would be disappointed. So she agreed.
