My company took over by new owner. Only some high ranked employee know about it. I am not a high ranked employee but I know about it because my boss. I joined this company two years ago. I was inexperienced. I didn't know how to do work in company. I need money. I spent my all money in my home and in my pregnancy. No one was for me. I wanted to my own house as nobody could force me to change my house when I have a small child and I am single mother. Society thinks it's not good to be single for a lady. A woman needs a man to protect her. But I think opposite I can survive alone with my son.  My mother in law wanted to be with me. I refused to take her help. But she was stubborn that's why she appointed a full time maid for me. It helped me a lot during my pregnancy. I was thanked to my mother in law for that. She is always supported to me while my own mother and my family betrayed me. That's why I love my mother-in-law more than my own mother. I mean I love my mother but what my family did to me I can't forget it. So forget about my past. I don't want to talk about it. But I can't stop myself think about it.

In present, I am happy and blessed my son Aahan. He is my saviour and my life.

My boss has to go Delhi for attend the meeting, appointed by new owner of company. After that, they will be going to tell everyone about our company current situation. My boss is nervous. I never saw him like that in two years. But I think time has changed to everyone. So it's not new for me. I can manage my all problems and any siutation.

I asked to my boss, "are you nervous?"

He sighed, "A sort of. I heard lot of things about new owner." I was upset.

"Is it good or bad?" I asked with assumement.

"Mostly bad" he chuckled and I giggled, "I know you will not let happen anything wrong."

"You trust me?" He asked with raising his eyebrows

"Hundred and one percent  and I am with you in any condition." I told him with honesty.

"Thanks for supporting me." He smiled and I gave him smile.

"Don't forget to update me. I am only one call away." I recalled him.

"Thanks kavya for everything." He thanked me with grinned. "I always feel relax after talking you." He never forgets to tell me how I am helpful for him. But I know he says only for my pleasure.

His assistant came inside in his cabin and told him, "it's time for leave sir."

He looked at his wrist watch and bid goodbye to me. I smiled and bid goodbye to him.
.........................
It is lunch time. My boss texted me before two hours. He reached at Delhi and was going to attend meeting. Meeting will be over soon that's why I am waiting to his call. I am also nervous and tensed. My family income is dependent on my job. I have some saving but I know in future for Aahan education I need a lot of money. That's why I buy my and Aahan clothes from market. We don't use branded things. I try to bargaining. I buy mostly cheap things. I try to save money as much as I can.

My phone rings and I pick up, "hello sir"

He was cursing I can tell from his tone, "Kavya, he is asshole and arogant."

"What happened, sir? Tell me." I asked with concerned.

"He is asking for all employees report." It's not hard for us because we maintain all data. He continued, "you know, he wants to all employees refer by a number instead their names in report. You can understand how much he is asshole?" I can feel his anger other side of call.

"Sir, please clam down. I don't think there is wrong with it."

"What? You know how much we love to our names. I think you don't love your name." He asks

"Listen to me sir. You know in 12th board exam we are refered by our roll number, not by our name because we know there will be fair marking by teachers. We are attached with names somehow. That's why it's rule to write your roll number in answer sheet instead of your name. May be, its a reason that's why he wants all employees refer by a number. He wants fair judgement." I tell him my point of view.

There is a silent. After some minutes, he chuckes, "you are supporting him?"

"No I am not supporting him. I don't know him." I answer with honesty.

I hear a man voice, "Mr Rakesh who is supporting to my cousin? Because I never know a person who supports him." My boss put his hand on speaker as I couldn't listen but I can listen slowly voice. My boss was silent. May be, he don't want to tell about me. That man again asks, "is she your wife... Your friend.... Your girlfriend....?

"She is our company employee." Finally my boss speaks. I feel some irritation in my boss voice.

"Tell her, I am very excited to meet her. And I am sure I will meet her soon." I hear that man again voice.

My boss speaks on phone, "hello kavya are you there?"

"Yeah, who is he?" I asked with confusion.

"Another asshole." He tells with grinned.

I giggle, "I think there are a lot of asshole?"

"Yeah, you are right. By the way, I think you are saying right. I should think about that point of view. And what about over timing? He wants everybody has to do over timing. When company needs. Company is already in loss." He wants my point of view about it. Actually, in my company, nobody does over timing. Somes are newly married. Somes have kids. Everyone has their family and they want to spend their time with them. I cann't do overtime because Aahan play group has a fix timing. I can't leave him alone in home he is younger for that.

I sighed, "don't worry we will solve this problem."

He smiles, "You never think anything seriously." I know he is shaking his head.

I chuckle, "because I know there is no use to think anything seriously."

"Ok see you soon bye. And nice to talk you."

"See you soon sir." I cut the call. I think seriously but I don't show to anyone I am serious.
