Prem couldn't believe his luck when he got the job opportunity to work in Miami. He was in disbelief about his fortune in landing this job. Devrat seemed pleased with his choice, finding a perfect candidate at a wrestling match in Goa, India. He was offered a secret agent position with a bag full of money, leaving Prem speechless. With his mother's medical needs and financial struggles in mind, he reluctantly accepted the offer. Devrat knew that given his circumstances, this was an offer he couldn't refuse.
Prem wasn't the first candidate offered this role; many had given up before. Devrat informed him of the dangerous situations he might encounter as a secret agent. After showing him pictures and giving him the rundown, Devrat introduced him to Sejal, a stunning woman who showed him around the impressive mansion-like office.
Prem met the other team members — Sahil, Pooja, Reeta, Sikander, and Rajeev — making him the seventh member.
"Has the boss met him yet? " Sahil asked confusing Prem who wondered who the real boss was, if Devrat was in charge.
" Devrat interviewed him, he's in. He'll be taking Yogesh's place as per orders, " Sejal replied to Sahil.
" The boss is going to be furious... Devrat was told not to make decisions without informing him. We'll all pay for this, " Sahil showed uneasiness in his demeanor and Prem became worried.
" | thought Devrat was the boss, " Prem mentioned to Sejal.
" He is, until the big boss shows up. He comes and goes as he pleases. Don't stress about it. Get settled in and prepare for Friday night, " Sejal advised.
Prem would start working from tomorrow, which meant Friday was his first assignment. After the office tour, Sejal showed him to his room, explaining that they had breaks during the week, but they had to be present when the boss was around. Prem hoped the boss wouldn't fire him on the spot.
" Does he fire people for no reason? " Prem asked still worried about their previous conversation.
" He's not pleasant when he's in a mood, but he's mostly okay. He loses his temper if things don't go his way, so avoid him when he's upset. He's rarely here anyway, " Sejal explained.
Left to settle in, Prem explored his almost penthouse suite. Each team member had their own suite. What he knew about the job so far was that it was a high-stakes operation with an elusive and potentially volatile boss. The thought of Friday night's task kept Prem on edge. As he unpacked his belongings, he couldn't shake the feeling that he had stepped into a world far more complex than he had ever imagined.
The following day, Prem joined the team for their pre-mission briefing. Devrat outlined the details of their assignment, emphasizing the need for precision and secrecy. Prem felt a mixture of excitement and apprehension as he absorbed the information. He was determined to prove himself, especially given the boss's reputation.
Friday night arrived, and the team gathered at the opulent office. As the hours ticked by, Prem's tension grew. He kept a watchful eye on his colleagues, trying to gauge their reactions and strategies. Sejal's calm demeanor stood out to him - she seemed to possess an air of experience and confidence that he hoped to attain.
Finally, the anticipated moment came. The boss arrived, commanding attention with his imposing presence. Prem observed him discreetly, noting the aura of authority that surrounded him. Devrat introduced Prem as the newest member of the team, and the boss's intense gaze locked onto him momentarily, making Prem's heart race.
As the mission unfolded, Prem found himself swept into a whirlwind of action. He was adorned in an exquisite Armani suit, his hair professionally styled and given a subtle touchup. When he caught his reflection in the mirror, he could hardly believe the transformation. He looked like a supermodel — a far cry from his usual self. Glancing at the other team members, they exchanged amused looks, clearly sharing the sentiment of being out of their element.
Upon arriving at a highly secure location reserved for the elite, it became evident that their new attire was fitting for the occasion. Drenched in opulence, each member was bedecked in gold and diamond-laden accessories, blending in among the wealthy attendees. The crowd included not only high society figures but also, to Prem's alarm, notorious drug lords. The situation was more complex than he had imagined.
Facing this new reality, Prem grappled with uncertainty about how he would navigate his first mission. However, he understood the gravity of the situation and realized that, for the sake of his family and their dire circumstances, he needed to push his reservations aside and carry out the task at hand. Keeping his family unaware of the dangerous path he had embarked upon was a protective measure, shielding them from unnecessary worry. Despite maintaining a daily video call with his mother, the weight of time slipping away was a constant reminder of the urgency of their situation.
As Prem prepared to fulfill his role, he couldnt help but reflect on the stark contrast between his previous life and the world he was now immersed in. The mission was not just about money; it was a lifeline for his family, particularly for his mother fighting a fierce battle against cancer.
During dinner, Sejal motioned for Prem to join her, and to his astonishment, he saw a nude woman covered in food. People around her unabashedly grabbed the food to fill their plates.
The side effects of being rich and ways to get rich. He thought, trying to make sense of the scene. Devrat's team dined in an intimate room, a contrast to the grand formal dining area.
" So, what's your take on the 'eatable' lady? " Pooja teasingly asked Sahil who was purely vegetarian.
" | don't know how I'll digest this food now, " Sahil responded, his shock evident.
Laughter rippled through the group.
" Better get used to it. You'll need to feign interest in their businesses and become familiar with the surroundings. Gathering information may also involve engaging with women and captivating men. Flirting is acceptable, but it must be done with finesse. Maintain an approachable demeanor, but avoid appearing cheap. And remember, don't form any kind of emotional attachments with any of them. If | catch wind of it, you'll be swiftly removed from the mission, " Devrat explained in a measured tone and Prem absorbed the advice.
" Today, let's go with new names, shall we? " Reeta prompted, reminding them of the alias protocol. Each member had to choose a new name to address one another.
" I'm picking Sharon, " Sejal announced.
" Sahil will be Sebastian."
" Call me Rosie,''Reeta said.
" Roman suits me," Rajeev chimed in.
" Phoebe for me, " Pooja added.
" Sikander will go by Sam."
" From now on, I'm Preston," Prem declared. As the group continued their meal and lighthearted conversation, Prem was beginning to understand the intricacies of his new life. The team's camaraderie and the transformation of their identities highlighted the complexity of their work. The line between reality and facade was becoming increasingly blurred, and Prem was fully immersed in a world where appearances were everything.
