Deva sat on the swing on the other side of Siva making her move away from him which made Prem shake his head as Noel asked "Are you challenging me boss?" To which Deva replied "I'm stating the facts dear friend" making Noel roll his eyes.
"Fine! Why don't we see who the best designer is" Noel challenged him making Siva say "No thanks" and was about to get up when Deva held her wrist and made her sit on the swing as she tried to pull her hand away from his grip but he held onto her and took the other set of mehendi from Noel.
"You know I'm a doctor and I can really draw very well"
Deva said as they designed both her palms with mehendi making her look at Prem who's curiously watching her palms at his friends designs.
"You are good at drawing body parts not mehendi designs" Noel commented making Siva chuckle and looked at her palms too which were filling with mehendi. She sat still for several minutes trying to control her sleep as the guys were drawing. Sometime into the guys challenge Deva felt Siva's head hit his shoulder.
He paused his work and looked at Siva who fell asleep on his shoulder and sighed putting away the mehendi "What happened are you givi-" Noel trailed off looking at his boss who glared at him and widened his eyes at Siva who's head is on the boss's shoulder.
Noel smiled sheepishly and put aside the mehendi and stood up looking at Prem who was staring at his boss and kicked his leg making him come out of the shock and stood up saying "Noel let's go I'm already tired" and went away leaving them.
"What would Hima think if she saw them?" Prem said out loud making Noel stop mid stride asking "Are you rooting for boss and Hima's relationship? Then what about Siva?" and looked at Prem who seemed confused.

"Our boss likes Hima haven't you noticed the way he looks at her" Prem said making Noel say "What? No way I thought boss loves Siva" which made Prem roll his eyes and say "Really boss just helps her so she'd live on her own" and walked to his room.
Deva was looking at Siva when Hima came out and stilled looking at their position and when she saw Deva was about to wake Siva she loudly said "Don't" startling them and Siva woke up looking around to see Hima smiling sheepishly "You fell asleep and Dr.Deva was going to wake you up so I tried to stop him instead I startled you sorry".
"It is better if you wake me up instead of him" saying she stood up and saw her palms sighing before walking inside to see the sangeet ended and went to her room as Hima sat beside Deva on the swing and said "Do you hate her?"
"I don't understand why is it any of your business" Deva said making Hima smile "That means you like her" which made him narrow his eyes and looked at Hima confused "Why don't you stop your vivid imagination?" which made her chuckle.
"Did you ever fall in love?" Hima asked making him avoid her gaze "I don't have time for such things" which made her look at him "We have to make time for such things" he just shook his head getting up "I have lot of people to teach a lesson" and went inside making her confused.
"Just give him time" Gayatri said coming towards Hima making her nod and stood up saying "I know he likes me it's just a matter of one incident that's all" which made Gayatri smile as they both went inside to their alloted room.

8 115Post War Rules
Life on Torus Terminal is usually fast paced, but simple. A frontier Terminal has little room for easy living, but the great, circular station does boast shopping and culinary experiences from many Imperial races and cultures. Any star is, by its nature, extremely far from its neighbors. But laser highways, and the great shimmering sails of the light-rider spaceships make the trip into only about ten years. Still, the denizens of Torus Terminal eagerly await the day when the Anti-Euclidean Engine their station is built around finally comes online. Once that is done, they will have unfettered access to the entire Empire. Instantaneous travel and trade across hundreds of stars. Torus Terminal does boast one other oddity: a creature which calls itself Human. As he says, the last of his kind for now. He has made quite the life for himself on Torus Terminal, especially in the darker corners of the station. The elites of Torus Terminal praise his name, for once he took up arms, crime began to fall. What they did not realize was that was because he had claimed the seedy underbelly of Torus Terminal for himself and his own goals. The elites praise him as a paragon of law. The criminals fear him as a ruthlessly clever crime boss. Those closest to him, know him as the General. This story was originally posted on the Humanity Fuck Yeah subreddit, where it evolved from a simple play on a historical figure in a science fiction setting into a full blown space opera. I kind of took it as an opportunity to explore a setting I've had rolling around in my head for years. I also decided that it would be nice to have it in a place where I could more easily come back and edit it later, so I'm reposting it here. Here's a link to the original posting if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/comments/e9cwpl/post_war_rules/ If my genre and tagging is subpar, let me know. I'm still new to Royal Road and I'm open to help. Feel free to comment and make suggestions, or discuss. I love comments, and so long as we keep things civil I also love criticism.
