I even imagined the picture of me in the hospital wrapping a giant bandage around my whole body.

I tried my best to reach the file but it was an inch far away from me. Huhh!!!! I was trapped here for a fine fifteen minutes but still, I didn't reach the file.


I gathered all my courage and jumped up to reach the file and for my luck, my hand caught a file but for my bad luck, I slipped down.

"Owwchhh!" I rubbed my back mentally cursing the stubborn file and glaring at the broken stool.

Thank God! The stool is just three-inch height or else my dream would have been fulfilled now.


Slowly, I stood up from my place and looked around to check if anyone saw me in this awkward state. I know, no one is here but I want to confirm it for my own sake.

I adjusted my skirt and blouse then grabbed the file before storming out of the room as to how fast I could.


I pressed the 2nd floor once I entered the elevator where he asked no... ordered me to meet him.

I hummed my 6th-grade favorite song "Oh God Beautiful, Oh God Beautiful" to get rid of the nervousness because I am left alone in the elevator and it's not a good sign for me.

Oh, God! I am acting like a kid even worse than Sweety.

I am ready to go out when the lift came to the 2nd floor but the door wasn't opening. What happened to this? I furrowed my brows. I pressed the button but it doesn't work. Holy crap! I'm stuck inside. My body became to shake and soon after I realize what's happening around my surroundings, I met the darkness.

At first, I thought I might have fainted but my eyes are still open and I could barely see anything through the darkness.

It's okay... It will open. Just a second, it will open, I repeatedly told myself but anxiety took over me and I am running out of short breath.

I don't know how long I managed to stay conscious but I felt a small pain behind my head when my body came to contact the floor.

Oh, God! Who is going to take care of Sweety? I don't want to die. Please help me, I prayed to my dear God before I passed out.

Kayish's POV:

I have a sudden urge to see her again and want to know how she was feeling right now. I know I was way too harsh towards her but what she did is inconsiderable. She can't simply blame the manager to cover her fault.

I pressed her number and asked her to bring the file of this month's production and meet me here in my conference room then disconnect the call without hearing her another word.

I grinned widely thinking of her pulling her hair out of frustration. It's one of her habits whenever she gets irritation and I am happier to make her that easily.

I watched her wandering around the room like looking for something through the camera which she didn't aware of.

Electricity passed through my body when her blouse pulled up, revealing her small creamy stomach. I gulped down and focused my eyes on her face but failed.

She did something to me......

Shhh!! I felt bad when she fell on the floor but laughed once I saw her funny face. She looked around to confirm if anyone is watching her but she has no idea I am the witness of her every move.

She cursed some incoherent words under her breath which is probably about me and stormed out of the room. I shut my laptop and waiting for her arrival but she didn't come.

Why it took her more time to reach?

I lost my patience and walked out of the conference room. I stopped in front of the elevator but a deep frown formed on my face.

Why did it stick here?

Fear overwhelmed my body when it clicked my mind. She was trapped inside the elevator for almost half-hour.

Immediately I called the security team and asked them to fix the problem within a minute.

"Dammit!! Don't waste any time, Make it fast!!!" I yelled at them whoever is trying to fix the problem on the elevator.

"It seems someone cut the connection on the particular elevator." the security head informed me.

Deep down I know they did it purposely to harm her. But it is not a nice move for them. I will show them the actual meaning of hell.

"Sir! We need to shut the whole power immediately, then only we can fix the problem. They are afraid of working when the power is still on." again he made the request.

"Then shut the power off." I gritted my teeth.

"But sir, we can wait. Shift time will be finish after an hour. They can use another elevator." He suggested like I asked any of his opinions.

"Can't you see, someone trapped inside? Just shut the damn power and fix the problem immediately." I snapped at him.

I don't care, how much loss I am going to face, she is my first priority more than anything. It's just an hour of production will affect, but I can't take the risk with her life. The loss will meet my one day of expenses, that's all.

I wonder how she was doing there. I hope her panic attack wouldn't cause her too much trouble. She is a strong girl. Yeah! She is a strong girl. I gulped down unsure of myself. I looked down at my shivering hand and a deep frown appeared on my face. Why my heart is aching?

I ran towards the elevator once he said the problem was fixed. I pressed the button and the elevator door opened but the scene in front of me didn't sit well inside my little heart. She was lying on the floor, unconsciously!!

"Riya." I tried to wake her up but her body was cold as ice beside her skin was pale as a ghost. I scooped her in my arms and ran towards the parking area. I set her in my passenger seat and drive off.
