《A strange version of ipkknd》DARK DREAMS
Advertisement
Rey was wondering what went wrong. Being send to the general section from the VIP section, he felt as if he was being demoted. But what did he do to deserve this? He was always good to the customers, he was the cheerful one, hell, he was even working directly for the big boss. He was also on charge of safety here. To keep an eye on anything that maybe illegal. No one knew that he did that. The safety of the customers were the prime importance in Dark Dreams. There were very little cases of misbehaviour in the pub as the security was always strong and a little discomfort to any customer and the person responsible was thrown right out, with not so subtle warning. Rey was asked to keep an eye on the drinks on the preparation level. When the others reported to the chief, Rey reported directly to the boss. And being in the VIP section, he had a close contact with moist of the upper stream of people. But what happened now? He doesn't remember getting into any trouble...
He noticed one of his usual costumers entering the pub along with someone whom he hasn't seen before. But... What was she doing in the general section??? And she was looking.... like a college girl???
Khushi: "hey Rey... How r you?" He was again surprised by the flirty tone.
Rey: "hey KG"
Khushi: "KKG Rey... KKG... why do you always forget one K?"
KKG? She was a known face in the VIP section and he knew for sure that she was called KG and not KKG. He saw her giving him a pointed look and then Swifty glancing towards her companion. He understood that she didn't want her companion to have a clear idea about her. Then so be it!!!!
Khushi smiled as Rey gave her a discrete nod. She knew the guy was clever and he just proved her point. She should give him a raise.
Khushi: "Get me my regular... And give her whatever she wants..."
Rey just nodded at them after asking Sheethal's choice and turned around to prepare their drinks. Poor guy... Must be wondering what to give her. She never had the same drink twice.

Always testing the new drinks. But alcohol was a big no. Alcohol always made one loose control and her control was dear to her.
He turned around with the drinks.
"Martini for the pretty lady... KG... Here is your regular..."
She smirked at that. The guys is a pro...
She watched her companion empty her glass and ordering for more. After a few glasses, both hit the dance floor. Sheethal returned to counter after sometime and sat there watching Khushi. She saw a guy approaching Khushi and dancing quite intimately with her. And Khushi, who had her back to both Sheethal and the guy, didn't even turn around to look at the guy, but started grinding against him. The guy leaned in towards her ear and she turned around with a smile before nodding. She slowly walked towards the counter with a grin on her face. She forwarded her keys as soon as she reached Sheethal. "Take it home with you. I will have someone get it for me in a day or two... And Rey... Her drinks are on me..."
"Khushi" Sheethal called after her. She just turned around winking at her, still walking. Sheethal saw her being pulled further into the dark.
The new girl Khushi... She was turning more and more into a mystery.... Forgot to ask her why we r celebrating... Would have to wait till Monday for that... The girl never attended her phone on weekends.
She was sprawled across the bed on her front, naked under the duvet. She was at her house. She wasn't planning to go back to the pent house for a few days, after the whole drama the other day. She was thinking on her further course of action. She was sure that Sheethal will come to her with questions. And hopefully she will help her in her mission. She just smirked thinking about it.
She was at Sheethal's to get her car back.
"Khushi..."
"Ya?" She replied absentmindedly.
"Er... Why were we partying the other day?"
K had her back towards Sheethal. She smirked "because i was happy?"
S: "can I ask you y you were happy?"

K: "y do you think I was happy?"
S: "I know the reason? Something that happened at AR? But what... The only major thing that happened was.... You r happy that AR lost the deal??!!"
K: "maybe..."
S: "huh?.. but... but y???"
K: "because of the past... Because of some wrong judgements.... Because someone tried to mess with me... ME..." All the playfulness leaving her voice.
S: "Khushi? Is it?? Is it about ASR???"
K: "ASR!" she snorted.
"Leave it Sheethal... Why r we spoiling the mood talking about him..." Her phone rang right then. She looked at the name Partner flashing on her screen. "I got to go Sheethal... See you later..."
She stood shocked infront of the huge building seeing the blocks 'SINHANIA'S'. Of all the people in the world, it had to be fucking Sinhania???? What a luck!!! She sighed as Sheethal tapped her shoulder. "Come on in... Don't worry... This is my brother's company."
'Brother's??? BROTHER'S??? She is a Sinhania? How the hell did she get into AR? There is no way they could have covered all tracks like she did... That means there is someone helping them from the security team... Have to look into it... Won't know when it will become useful.
Sheethal: "u just wait here... I will go call Bhai..."
As soon as Sheethal was out of sight she took out her phone and texted Armaan 'have a look into the security team of AR. May find something useful.' She was all the while maintaining a cool expression. She could guess that she was being watched.
She was taken into a large cabin and there sat the mighty Vishal Sinhania. One of the few men she detested.
Vishal was looking at her with a smug smile.
Vishal: "what's ASR's girl friend doing here?"
K: "and what is she doing here?" She asked pointing towards Sheethal maintaining her cool attitude. She may hate the guy, but currently she had other priorities.
Vishal smirked: "may i know who u r working for... Ur actual employer this time..."
K: "I work for myself."
Vishal: "you mean to say that u got into AR all by yourself?"
K: "you have no idea what I can do..."
V: "hmm... Well... From the way you talk, you could have easily got anyone else inside AR, then y u?"
K: "because it's personal..."
V: "but, the way he behaved in Nainital, it seemed like he is rly in love with u..."
K: "maybe... But sometimes... The past never leaves as alone...."
V: "that bad ha?"
She just gave him a blank expression.
V: "but y do you want to help us?"
K: "I seriously don't... It's your sister who brought me here... And then again helping you won't affect me... As long as my goal is met... I don't care whom AR looses the deals to... Who gets the deal..."
V: "heard that you are the head designer for AR's prime fashion show"
K: "if it takes place, that is..."
V: "you... You r planning to sabotage the show?" He asked rather shocked.
K: "No... I'm planning to complete my work even before that!" She said in a nonchalant tone. "See you guys later..." She turned around to walk out.
V: "how can we trust you?"
K: " don't.... it's just that you don't have anything that u can hold against me... While i have plenty..." She said without turning to face them.
"What?" He asked confused.
"I knew about Sheethal even before she told me anything... Just didn't know that she is your sister... i have copies of the emails she sent you... I could have easily ratted you out... even after being there she could hardly get any details... And now with him personally handling everything... It's even harder... Believe me when i say that you would need me... Trusting me or not is your concern not mine. I don't rly care..."
ASR: "Khushi... How r the designs going..."
K: "good... Even after the lack of time I'm facing due to my boss..."
ASR: "You..." He stopped abruptlyseeing her expressions change, he watched on shocked as she ran out of the cabin.
