"In Darks and in Meadows, In Solitude and in Happiness , In Anger and In Pleasure , the worth human owns, shouldn't be forgotten , even in disasters.. " Mia said as she turned the pages of the book.

"That's a great line coming from Mia... Applauses.. " Nihar said as he stood up from the couch and started clapping.

"Could you stop teasing me and read something much more than love..? "Mia said.

"Love is everything in life dear.... " He said.

"Exactly a big no for me.. I don't understand the reason why people fall in love when they have a lot of things to do. And whatever they did, I have nothing to do with them, I have my life , so let me focus on myself and my career" Mia said and closed the book.

"Stop stop... I am wrong here to start this conversation. Lets just finish it or else you could make me believe in your thoughts against love.. " Nihar said waving his hands as a sign of No.

Mia, the untainted lawyer,

who won almost all cases even the ones in her life. She just had one rule , of not loving anyone and focusing on what was important. For her, Love always has been contrasting enough to confuse people.

" Till the end of the edges.. You find yourself always stuck in something that is more or like a hell and heaven in the same place and at the same time and then you are over. " She thought and told everyone.

And she was so determined to not fall in these type of things for her life because she have a long life ahead with problems already following her.

"Hey, I know what we are going to do after these readings.. " Nihar said and came towards Mia.

"What..? "Mia asked..

" We need to go to your family get together. So lets go shopping for that and eat there, because we won't be able to have rest and eat at the gathering.. "He said.

"Absolutely.. "She said and both of them left the study room.

Nihar, he is Mia's assistant and friend, totally obsessed with love and have a lot of good connections.

Mia and Nihar met each other through Mia's Aunt, who once bought an orphan at Mia's house so that she can show off and this was the only thing she did right in her whole life. Their connection grew as they grew up and this is where it bought them..

**********

" Well I bring you for shopping with me so that you can help me choose and not to catch glances at these girls here " Mia said while going through different clothes.

"Well, you never get to see these many women, what if one of them finds me as her Prince Charming.." Nihar said and flicked his hairs.

"You don't even catch up to the level of Knight my boy... Stay away from that Prince Idea and help me here.. " She said and hit Nihar's head with her bag.

"What can I do to help you, you have already rejected almost the whole shop here, " Nihar pouted running his hands through his head.

"Who knows that I might like the rest in the shop.. "

She handed over her thing to Nihar and went towards a dress hanging over the corner.

"I kind of like this one " She said.

The moment she was about to take that dress, another person came towards that same dress..

"Oh, I was just going for this one " She said..

"I am sorry, I didn't knew. I was looking at it for my mother.. You can take it.. " The man said.

"Yes thank you alot sir, let's go back Mia.. " Nihar said and took the dress. He was dragging Mia back.

"No... Give him back.. " She said as she stopped him and snatched the dress. She handed the dress back to the man and took Nihar out of the shop..

"Girl!!.. We just got our dress and you let him take that. Now we have to work for more two hours.. " He said, "I am tired Bro".

"Well, it was not that up to the mark and it was for his mother so.. Let it be.. I will see another one out there " She said while trying to change the topic.

Nihar nodded impatiently.

After almost one hour, they went out to eat.

"So what do you want to order..? "Nihar asked .

"See there's a book shop there.. I guess I should buy two or three.. "Mia said while pointing towards the door.

"No way, we were about to eat " Nihar whined.

"Okay, you order and I will be back in minutes.. "Mia said and hurried out towards the store. Nihar tried to stop her but she didn't listen.

***********

She started to look for books at the shelf.

A book got her attention and she was about to take it but Someone else held her hand..

"Oh, I am sorry, I was actually going for the book and accidentally held you.. " The man said.."oh, its you.. I am sorry again.. "

" As far as I Remember, You are that dress guy.. "Mia said and smiled awkwardly.

"Yes.. As you let me take that dress, I will let you take this book.. " The man said.

"No, it's absolutely okay, I really don't read these kind of books. I was just curious.. You can take it.. I already have selected mine.. " Mia said.

"Okay then, thank you again.. " He said and slightly bowed down.

The man walked out and Nihar came in..

"What was he doing in here. ? " Nihar asked with furrowed brows.

"Well, we got the same books again so.. "She replied and started walking too.

"AGAIN " Nihar was laughing his heart out..

"Yeah," She said. "well why are you here..? "

"We don't have time, let's eat in the car and get dressed and head to the party.. " He said.

"It is not a party, a get together" Mia said.

"Whatever..."Nihar said and rolled his eyes.

" I bet you won't like it.. "Mia said and messed Nihar's hairs..

" Mia..!!! " Nihar said and pushed Mia's hand, "I spent my good amount of time setting them, I am not a child. Stop touching my hairs.. "

"Of course " Mia laughed and messed his Hairs again.

************

"So, how you like the party..? " Mia asked Nihar..

"Get together.. " Nihar said and growled.

"I told you... You won't like it " Mia said.

"So I guess you have some sense of fashion " A woman said as she approached from their Right.

"Yeah, of course... Nice to meet you Aunt Rosaline ..." Mia said.

Mia and Nihar hurried back to the house and got dressed.

Mia was wearing a navy blue off shoulder dress with sequins beads. She let her hairs open as they perfectly suited her style. She had a swan necklace which she wore from her childhood. Her black heels completed her outfit and she was ready to ride out now.

Nihar came out wearing a dark blue suit which got in line with his perfect shape of his body.

Mia and Nihar matched perfectly as they came out and rode to Mia's Father's house.

*************

As they reached the destination, the lights of the cameras and shouts from people was heard clearly.

The media was busy taking pictures.

Nihar and Mia held hands and got out of the car.

The crowd's attention was towards them and flashlights  were everywhere. The guards stoped the crowd from busting in.

"Miss Mia, are you here for business or the get together..? " One of the Reporter asked.

"I am here to meet my Father.. " Mia said.

"Is he your boyfriend.. " Said another reporter.

"No he is not.. " Mia said as she smiled, " When I will get a boyfriend, I will announce it in the public.. " She laughed.

"Miss Mia, how are you planning to take over your Father's business.. Everyone's looking up to you " The reporter said again.

"Let's enjoy the party guys.. " Nihar said in between and signalled the guards to move forward.

The crowd was still following them.

Mia and Nihar gave them a last smile and entered inside.

************

The whole party was filled with great  and successful people from the relatives and friends family. They were all being friendly and caring towards Mia, but she knew that it is only because of her wealth and family background.

"I think you have some sense of fashion.." A lady said..

"Yeah, I Know. Thank you Aunt Rosalie.." Mia said.

"Well, it is still not up to the mark for the only heir of S &P Group. " Aunt Rosalie said.

"I am not here to please you or anyone else.. It's what I like and I will go with it.. "  Mia said.

"And Aunt That Heir thing, don't you think it  is not in your hands to say anything.. " Nihar said.

"But for you child, it's really important.. We all don't know when your father will... " Aunt Rosalie said while ignoring Nihar.

"Can we talk about your nonsense later, we all know what you are up to , so I hope you don't bother us here and have a great night ahead,  My Dear Aunt, enjoy this get together I threw for everyone here.. " Mia interrupted her and walked away with Nihar.

"She really got a big mouth. She didn't even wanted to stop at this occasion.. " Nihar said..

"You doubted.? " Mia scoffed.

" Hey.... I thought you wouldn't come here. " A Girl said as she waved at Mia and Nihar from a distance.

"Why wouldn't I..? This is the only time I can meet you.. " Mia said..

"You are here too.. I.. Uh.. I... Nice to meet you Kiara.. " Nihar said..

"Does your assistant always be this stupid, Sister..? " Kiara asked and chuckled.

"You surely can't confirm it.. " Mia said..

Kiara was the only person she can trust after her father in her whole family. She was her sister not by blood but by heart.. She was in the same school with Mia and later on by coincidence became the doctor of her father and now is her father's second daughter..

"I really have so much to catch up with you but not here... I guess you would have met Our Aunt till now.. " Kiara said as she pointed at Aunt Rosalie who was talking with their business partners .

"She won't spare me so yes... " Mia said and rolled her eyes.

"Well she can't do anything... Let's just don't talk about her and enjoy this party... "Kiara said and held Mia's arm with her hands.

"Get together.. " Nihar said..

Mia smirked towards Nihar.

"What's with you two..? " Kiara asked.

" Nothing, I will tell you later.. "Mia said, " By the way, When are you getting free... I will meet you sooner and we all will hang out... Right now.. I will meet my father and then run out of here.. Would you come With me.?" 

" Well, I can't run out of here as my parents are already here and will be wanting me back any minute..They would try to mingle me with some rich guys... " Kiara sighed.

"Then... I will call you tomorrow and tell you when we are hanging out... Okay... " Mia said and smiled.

"Done...I will see you then.. " Kiara said and walked away..

"When are you going to tell her..? " Mia asked him while glaring at Nihar.

"Tell.... Tell her..Tell whom.. What.. ? " Nihar hesitated and avoided eye contact while looking at the ceiling.

"Well I know you can't hide it from me.. " She said..

" There's nothing in between us.. You are taking whole thing wrong.. " He said and bottomed up his glass.

"I didn't even said that... " Mia smiled.

"Look who's here.. " An old man came  saying and hugged Mia..

"You are the only person Dad, for whom I am here.. " Mia said..

"I know... You look beautiful...Why don't you dress up like this more often.. " He said..

"Well don't I look good in my formals..? " Mia asked.

"Yeah you do... How are you doing Nihar..? " Mia's father said as he turned towards Nihar.

"I am always good uncle.. Accept my  apologies for turning late in here.. " Nihar said..

"You don't have to be sorry, I know my daughter, she might have taken a lot of time ... Or else this dress and her might not be here.. " He said..

"You surely know her Uncle.. " Nihar said..

"I am glad she have you, so that I can rest assured.. " He said

"My pleasures uncle.. " Nihar said and slightly bowed down.

"Oh , here they come. " Mia whispered as she pointed towards a couple with her eyes.

"Hello, hello.. May I take Your Minute Miss Mia.. " The lady said..

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Sama... I guess I was not able to welcome you here.. " Mia's father said..

"We welcome you here.. " Mia said.

"Oh.. It's all okay... We are always even with you... I think you didn't met my son.. He is really good looking and bachelor.. " Mrs Sama said..

"Here she goes... Dad I think I will need to leave sooner or else she will make me and her son have a night out today.. " Mia whispered..

"Okay.. " Her Dad whispered back.

"Your son is really appreciable aunt... I hope Miss Mia would get more chances to meet with him.. " Nihar said..

"Of course she will.. Well by the way. " Mrs. Sama was saying but Nihar interrupted her.

"By the way.. Mia.. Remember we have to get to the client meeting.. It's really going to be late.. We should hurry and go back.." Nihar said.

"Oh.. Yes.. I will meet you again Aunt.. Dad I will come again.. " Mia said and turned around in a hurry.

"You really are my savior.." Mia said..

"At your service ma'am.. " Nihar said..

Despite of being the daughter and heir of such a big company, Mia works as lawyer for following her dreams.. And being independent... On the other side, no one can beat her in business too as she was trained from her childhood by her father..

"Well let's dine out somewhere.. " Nihar said .

"Okay then.. I want my dessert.. " Mia said..

"Very well.. Wait for me at our spot and I will be back in half hour.. " Nihar said and went away..

Mia reached before the expected time as always.. The sun was already setting at this time, and the whole sky was blended in different colours filled with birds and clouds..

"The sun looks good" Mia said..

"Just good..? " Someone said from behind..

Mia was shocked and fell in his arms.. The guy was surprised too and released her from his arms and both of them fell on the ground..

"It's you again.. " Both of them said.. They laughed..  It was the dress and the book guy again..

"I guess we should introduce ourselves.. I am Aarav.. " He said..

"Well I think I shouldn't open up this soon" Mia said.

"It's okay if you want it like this..By the way, what do you think.? we are meeting again and again. I think destiny is on my side to let me see such a beautiful piece of art.. " He said.

"Destiny..? Not a guy with these cheesy lines again. " She said and sighed.

"Why..? Don't you believe in destiny.? " He asked.

" Of course not. It is too contradicting.." Mia said.

"That's really contradicting for the person who reads love stories.. " Aarav said..

"Love stories..? Not even once in my life.. " Mia scoffed..

"Really..? You were picking up that book today.. " He said.

"Actually I was just thinking to turn the pages once as I haven't seen any one in like whole life.. " She said.

"I see I see.. You wanted to read it.. But I took it.. "

"No.. Really not.. "

"Well, the sun is going to go down sooner.. Are you here alone..? wanting to enjoy the sun.. ? " He asked while admiring the sun.

"My friend will come here soon..  " She said.

"Then let's enjoy it, together." He said and sat down..

He held Mia's hand and pulled her to sit down on the ground and they saw the sun melting down. The winds were more soother than before and the birds were singing like they never sang..

When the sun was all gone and the sky was pretty dark, Mia saw again but the guy was already gone. She was so mesmerized by the view that she didn't knew when he went away, but he left something there.. That book..

"The Plenty Love.. " She read..

"Did I hear love..? " Nihar said..

"I think your ears are singing.. And yes you are late again.. " Mia said..

"It's all okay with me until you fire me and realise me from your brutality "He said and sat down with her.. "What's this in your hands..? " He snatched the book from Mia..

"The Plenty Love..? " He said..

"Were you alone all the time here..? " Nihar asked..

"Uh yes.. Why would there be someone else with me..? " Mia said in a direct tone.

"What were you doing..? "

"Watching the sunset.. Why are you interrogating me ? " Mia asked Nihar.

"No.. It's nothing I just want to.. What's this in your hands..? " Nihar said and snatched the book from Mia's hands.."The PLENTY LOVE..? What are you doing with these love stories... "

"Planning to kill someone.. " Mia said and avoided eye contact.

"Someone or that guy who was sitting with you here..? " Nihar said and hit her with his elbow.

"What... You saw..? " Mia said surprisingly ,  " I mean there's nothing to see but when you knew then why were you asking me.. "

"Just wanted to see what will you say.. And Miss lawyer I think you forgot that we are in open area and people can see from far distances.. Unless they are blind.. And I am not blind so I saw you two sitting here romanticizing the sun.." Nihar said.

"Romanticizing..? Well we don't even know each other.. "

"So why did he dropped this book for you..? "

"I didn't saw him leave.. And this is the book he and I got our hands on.. Maybe he might have felt guilty..." Mia said.

"Oh really... I think he shouldn't have.. Because you don't read these kind of books. Let me take this and free you with this burden.. " Nihar said and picked up the book.

"Wait... Actually.." Mia said and snatched the book back from Nihar's hands.

"What..? Do you want to read.. " Nihar said.

"Why are you being so pathetic.. I.. I was saying that why are you leaving with this book right now.. You and I were planning to eat dinner here so don't leave me hanging or people will see me as lonely person.. " Mia said .

"Okay don't explain... Let's just eat it.. " Nihar smirked..

They had a long dinner there and then went in the tent they made up..

"It would have been so much fun if Kiara would be here too.. " Mia sighed.

"She's your best friend.. It was your duty to call her to hang out.. It was her limitations that she denied. So it's okay.. " Nihar said.

"Aaha... Don't be so sad.. I have fixed another meeting with her for tomorrow.. Remember.. We will go to her after we meet the client at noon and then go for movie , lunch, shopping and finally to my Dad's.. " Mia said and patted Nihar's head.

"Done for tomorrow's schedule ma'am.. " Nihar said and noted everything down in his Phone.

The night was already up and they went to sleep. But Mia was thinking about the sunset..

"Life can really give you some pleasant moments even without you asking for it, because it knows that how much tiring work you had been up to and how monotonous your life is.. That's why those peaceful moments glows you up like you were in the start. Just the same the sunset worked as a therapy for Me, " She slept thinking the same.

*********

The next morning, the first thing Mia went for was to meet the client as decided.

The office was already in chaos , with a number of clients already there..

"Why is it such a mess in here...? " Mia asked..

"Well, recently there are number of cases of bankruptcy in the city.. " Nihar said.

"I see.. Let's go to the cabin , I think Mr. Parma is already there.. " Mia said.

They headed their way and found what they were expecting..

"Sorry we have been late.. I hope you weren't waiting for long.. " Mia said and shook hands with Mr. Parma.

"No Ma'am.. I was just a bit early "Mr. Parma said.

"Okay.. So what's that you want my help for... We were meant to meet two days before and even the week before.. But you never came up.. Is everything okay..? " Mia said and opened Mr. Parma's case file.

"It was just.. I was holding my courage to show up.. " He said..

"Okay.. You don't have to worry about it.. We are all here to keep you safe.. Tell me everything from the beginning.. That's how we will be able to help you.. " Mia said and gave a smile to Mr. Parma.

"So, I ..I was working in the RAINDROPS COMPANY for almost three years, it was all going well, when the CEO of the company let his son took over the post of Managing director.. It was also going well until he started to recruit new people and fire the old people. And one night when I was working overtime for completing the project assigned to me which has to be completed or else I would loose my job. While I was working I saw there was mess in the storage room. I was about to call the security when I heard voices over the boss's cabin. I peeked through  the window and saw the Managing director and the recent client having a chat in that hour. Later I saw them exchanging money for something.. At first I thought it was for the advance , then I saw them walking over the storage room and they took out the file of our companies secrets and past records was being handed over to the client.. I found it doubtful and that's why I followed him. I found him handing it over to the companies opponent.. And then he called someone and told him.. That the work was done in here.. " Mr. Parma said and took a sip of water .

"So whom are you really blaming in here..?" Nihar Asked..

"I don't know.. I talked to one of the guards the other day and was called by the managing director... He then fired me without even telling me the reason.. And that's why I am here, to claim for my rights and turn down the MD of RAINDROPS to the law.. " Mr. Parma said.

"We understand your whole story.. " Mia said.

"I hope you told us everything so that we would be able to defend you in the court.. " Nihar said

"I hope it doesn't go to the court... We will try to take this matter out of the court... " Mia said..

"Thank you Ma'am and Sir.. I am really grateful to you.. I have my family to take care of.. I hope you will bring me justice.. " Mr. Parma said and joined his hands in front of them as respect.

"Yes sir.. I will tell you over the call about our next meeting and the other procedures.. " Nihar said..

As Mr. Parma left the office, Mia called Nihar..

"You wanted to speak to me..? " He asked..

"Find more about this RAINDROP and their Managing Director.. And if anything messy appears to the company again, reach out for me as soon as it is possible.. " Mia said..

"Very well.. Give me a day and night.. "Nihar said and was going away when Mia stopped him.

" Wait.... It's already noon.. We will be late for meeting with Kiara.. "

"I won't be able to.. You just gave me a lot of work." Nihar said..

"Then let me change the plan.. Kiara and I will have lunch first, and then we will go to shopping... You can meet us after that for the movie and then we can go to My Dad for dinner... Is it okay with you..? " Mia said and scrolled through her Phone.

"Well.. It's good.. "

"Okay.. If you need anything, you can call me right away.. "

"Then we will meet there.. "

Mia headed to the restaurant where they all decided to meet up.

"You are alone..? " Kiara asked..

"Well.. We meet after these long hours and you ask me this..? I am really, really disappointed.." Mia pouted.

"I.. I didn't meant it ... You told me you and Nihar were coming so I was just... Just being curious.. " Kiara said stammering.

"It's okay.. If you say so.. Well  now I even believe that quote.. Misters before sisters.. " Mia said.

"What do you mean..? " Kiara said and frowned her eyebrows.

"Nothing.. I will tell you later when I will want to.. " Mia said and smirked.

"You make me curious everytime.. " Kiara pouted.

"I know I know.. So let's eat up and go for our day out... "

After some hours,

"It is almost the time of the movie, where is that stupid..? " Mia frowned.

"He will come.. " Kiara said..

"You sound much confident in my assistant.. "

"No it's just.. He don't come late as it.. " Kiara was saying but Mia interrupted.

"You really are confident.. "

"Well here he is as I said.. " Kiara said..

"I think I am not late... " Nihar said panting.

"Of course not.. You really predicted . " Mia said.. "Well let me talk to you first before we go in.. Did you get the information for RAINDROPS..? "

"Yes, I did... Why ? Do you want them right now..? " Nihad asked.

"Yes I do want them.. " Mia said in an obvious way.

"Then what about the movie..? " Kiara asked..

"Well, I only booked two tickets for you guys as I knew I would need to work.. " Mia said..

"You really are something.. We were meant to have the whole day... " Kiara said..

"I am sorry.. But you two have the chance today.. And I will meet you after the movie... I promise.. " Mia said and went away hurriedly..

"Wha..... What did she meant..? " Kiara asked..

"She... She probably meant that we didn't had the time to hang out so maybe... " Nihar stammered..

"Yeah maybe she was wanting to say this.. " Kiara said .

"Well let's go in then.. It is about to start.. " Nihar said awkwardly.

"Okay.. Okay.. "

Nihar and Kiara went in. They found that they were booked for the corner seats.. Nihar was remembering Mia with mixed feelings of shyness , nervousness and happiness..

They sat over there, and to their surprise... The tickets were booked for a horror movie..

In every moment Kiara feared, she held Nihar's hands and sometimes even hugged him in fear..

Out there, Mia went to the library and sat there to open up the file.. She read..

"So The Managing Director of the Company is Aarav Jha..? "
