Naina was deeply buried with work in the office when her phone on the desk started to vibrate. She glanced at her phone screen and quickly swiped her finger on the screen and pressed her phone to her ear.
"Melissa!"
"Do you even remember me?" Melissa complained.
Naina gave a soft laugh, "Why are you so cranky today?". Naina stood up and walked out of the office.
"How come you never asked to meet me when we were working together in same place?" She asked, a sigh heard at the other end of the call.
"I'm sorry," Naina apologized. "Where are you? Let's have dinner tonight" Naina said in delightful tone.
"Okay. I will text you later" Melissa said before she hang up the call.

Picking up her pace, Naina went downstairs and rushed towards the entrance. She spotted Melissa stood near the entrance.
Naina saw the bright smile on her Melissa's face. With a smile, Naina walked over to her cousin sister and looked at her with a helpless gaze. "I am sorry. Did you wait long?".
"What took you so long?" Melissa then linked arms with her as they started walking.
Naina heaves a long deep breath and said, "You know! I am still inexperienced and moreover I work in Director's office". Her voice laced with worry.
Hearing this, Melissa stopped in her tracks, raising a brow at her as she asked her with sharp voice, "Did they bully you or look down because you are just an intern?"
"Relax," Naina scoffed, letting out a chuckle at the same time. "Don't worry! They treat me well".
"How's Teacher Karl?" Naina already changing the topic to make the atmosphere between them brighter.
"I don't know!" Melissa replied flatly.
Naina widened her eyes in astonishment, "Did you guys got divorce?". Her lips showing a melancholic smile that made Melissa look at him in a different light.
"Why did you guys fought again?" She asked blandly in expected tone.
"What's up, ladies?".
Naina and Melissa turned around at the same time hearing the familiar voice. Karl came out of the car at this time and to her surprisingly, Shyam also came down from the car.
Naina stiffened when she met his gaze feeling little bit uncomfortable for no reason. As Karl and Shyam walked closer to where the ladies were, his eyes lit up as they took a full look of Naina.
Melissa stepped forward and greeted, "Director Ryu".
Shyam pushed a smile and greeted back, "Miss Sul, You don't have to be so formal with me". He then shifted his gaze to the person who was standing beside Melissa with cheerless expression.
"Shyam, let me introduce..." Karl said. "You might already know". He then pointed at Naina slightly and added, "This is Naina, Who recently joined your office".
Naina looked at the Karl and Shyam friendly manner and thought herself. "Are they very close to each other?"
"She's my cousin sister. Please take care of her" Melissa said hurriedly with a smile. As the group was exchanging a few words, Naina stayed at the side quietly.
Naina threw a look to Melissa when she elbowed her side. Naina straightened herself and said with a slight bow, "Good bye, Director".
"Goodbye, Ms Naina" He gave a small smile, his gaze holding hers. An amiable smiles curled on both Karl's and Melissa's lips. This showed how much they care about Naina.
"Enjoy your dinner!" Shyam said before he walked inside the company.
"Let's go" Karl stretched out his hand to hold Melissa hands but she flung away Karl's hands. "You are not invited" Melissa gave a superficial fake smile with cold eyes.
"I am gonna have a long night" Karl scratched his head frustratedly looking at their back with distaste expression.
