For Bhaskar times

Start from the beginning
                                    

Ch- so dadda did you do it?

R- I did and I want to clarify what I did was in NO way something that you should ever do ! Coz it's is a crime

Ch- hahahaha dadda you are hilarious

R- no I'm a criminal and my next crime is unleashing the tickle monster

Raghav tickled Chini for a while until she begged him to stop , Raghav hugged her and promised her to return at night before he left. Imlie and Aryan traveled in absolute silence until the car began making weird noises and ultimately stopped middle of nowhere

I- what's wrong?

Ar- the car has no petrol, I can swear I had the tank on full yesterday

I- this is great! Just typical

Ar- what do you mean by that Imlie ?

I- nothing

Ar- just come out and say it, if nothing it will make you feel better

I-You know what will make me feel better ? It's getting to work on time ABP!

Aryan almost cracked a smile , it had been a while since he had Imlie refer to him as ABP , he decided to go with the flow.

Ar-Oh you can get to work on time!

I - woh kaise?

Ar-We are in the middle of a jungle and as a jungli , you can get us out of here in no time I imagine , you probably know se shortcut around here!

Imlie scoffed and looked away when she saw Aryan looking at her.

I- All I'm saying is my work and Bhaskar times is important for me and I hate being late my very first week back!

Ar- if that is the case you might not like being back

I - what do you mean ?

Ar-Bhaskar times is not the same as before, things are different under Ms. chaturvedi's management

I-Oh I see , but you are still the boss so how different can they be?

Ar-I'm more of an absent boss

I-What ? But why? You worked so hard for Bhaskar times, made it a force to reckon on the national news , so what happened?

Ar-I don't feel like talking about it

I-As your employee I have a right to know ! I want to make sure I have an understanding of my work place, consider it orientation!

Ar-Imlie please

Ar-I'm not letting this one go

Ar- Why not? It was easy of you to let go of us?
Imlie was stunned at Aryans question and decided to ignore it and learn about Bhaskar times.

I- so Bhaskar times?

Ar- I stopped going to work or rather doing any work after you left , Bhaskar times was impossible to be at, so that business suffered the most , rest of them were barely saved or I should say somehow kept afloat by di and Sundar.

I- oh

Ar-oh? That's all you have to say?

I- what would you like me to say!

Ar-Anything , anything that is not hurtful or sarcastic or how about asking how I have actually been ? Anything imlie !

I- I can't

Ar-Imlie I'm.so sorry I didn't mean to say those things I don't know what came over me , I understand if you would like to call Raghav to come pick you up

I- and why would I do that?

Ar- bcoz you don't want to be here stuck with me
Imlie let out a big sigh and hung her head , she looked back at the way she had treated Aryan ever since they met and it had taken its toll not only on her but clearly on him too , she thought.

I- ABP , tumhar boxing kaise chal rahi hai?

Ar- huh?

I- I imagine you are still doing that. Sorry your face kinda speaks for itself

Ar- you should see the other guy or guys!

I- great, you should maybe do that for a living , bhaskar times may not be your cup of team anymore

Ar- is that a challenge?

I- yes, but one you will lose

Ar- it depends

I-On what?

Ar-What are the stakes ?

I-Your choice, what would you want to bet ?

Ar- if I turn around Bhaskar times in a month's time, you and Raghav make your temporary move permanent and take up your positions at Bhaskar times full time

I- Lekin ABP!!

Ar- Those are the stakes Imlie, and you know I'm a better negotiator than you!

I- no I want to know what happens if you lose?

Ar- what would you like, it's only fair for you to choose.

Imlie thought for a while and thought of the exact thing that would motivate Aryan, she was worried this might hurt him but it had to be done

I- If you can't get Bhaskar times to it's old status In a month . I will move back home and we will never see or speak to each other ever again

Ar- what?

I- I will help you with turning on the ship on Bhaskar times but those are the terms.

Aryan knew what imlie was trying to do and he was grateful for it.

Ar-ok I accept your terms

I- we have a deal then

Ar-Yes, we do! Oh no the cab I called for cancelled on me again! I think nobody wants to travel this far! My cell has no reception anymore what about yours?

I- same ! You know what I know a shortcut through the jungle

Aryan cracked a smile and gave a look to imlie that said " I knew it" and imlie laughed as she could read Aryans mind.

I- don't say it! Let's go

Ar- yes, let's go!
