Bound By Contract

1: The Bitter Conversation

"Before you start getting ready for the party, I want you to complete these analysis reports," he says and forwards some files my way, "If not completed, no need to come, I will tell Siya," he says and goes back to his work as I grit my teeth irritated.

"With all due respect," I start as he looks up at me with his brows raised, "sir," I say when he nods his head and asks me to continue, "I don't start getting ready hours before the party and you can't give me so much work and expect it to finish it immediately, it's a two-three days of work," I say pointing at the files. 

Rudra kept the pen in his hands and folded his hands, staring at me and I suddenly realized the way I was talking to him, even if I hated him, he was still my boss, but my guilt was shortridden because my eyes went towards the amount of work he just gave me and expected me to finish it today. 

"Amayra, if you're having a problem finishing the work, just say so, I can just fire you and hire some well-deserved employee," Rudra states, and I grit my teeth irritated. I cannot take the risk of getting fired, I had to save money if I ever wanted to dream of starting my own Tech Company.

"Sorry sir," I say with lots of difficulty as I ball my fist angrily, but don't show the anger.

"That's what I thought," he says and pushes the files my way, "Now take them and start the work," he says and goes back to do his work as I half-heartedly take the files and leave his cabin.

The salary Rudra Kapoor gives me might be high and generous but it wasn't enough to start a company of my own, I would need more resources, Siya would be more than happy to invest in my start-up, but I wasn't going to ask her, she and her father had helped me a lot growing up, my entire education was sponsored by her dad, I and Siya were inseparable since our High school when I had to suddenly change my schools because I was in an entirely different city altogether.

I was twelve when I came to Mumbai for vacation at my Nani's house, I was with my cousin one night when we got a call that my parents were victims of a hit-and-run case, they were on their way home after dinner at some hotel when a drunk driver came up from behind them and crashed, it was a death on spot. It was one of the most traumatizing moments of my life and one where I still get scared whenever someone calls me at night.

My Nani then took me with her to Mumbai where I lived after that, the money my parents saved was to be passed to me after I turned eighteen, so Nani was the one who took care of all my expenses. My uncle, my mother's brothers were- let's say they were A-holes who refused to pay for anything related to me, it was just my Nani who did everything for me, including bringing cakes for my birthdays, paying for school fees or buying books, she had used all her and Nanu's money they have saved over the years, and one dreadful day, she left me too when I was sixteen.

I was all alone, I used to live with my Uncle but it felt like I was being a burden in their lives, after my tenth result I was at Siya's house one day when I told her my living lifestyle and how torturous it was getting to stay with my uncle. When it was time to choose my career I had a plan where I had to be and what I had to do. I got selected for one of the top IT colleges, but the fees were enormous, and getting admission was difficult, but when Siya's father heard about this, he decided he would be the one paying for my education, he even solved my living problems, he rented a place nearby my college so it would be easier for me to go and save some money of transportation.

After I turned eighteen and when I finally got the money access from my parents' account, I decided to return the money to Siya's dad, but he refused, he even said he would be paying for my entire education, and that I should save the money from my parents for my future. Even if it felt wrong that time to take money from him, I couldn't be more thankful for Siya's support and her dad's, they were literally my saving grace after school.

And just like that, I had completed college and my Master's and immediately got hired by Kapoor Elite Security two years back, I had rented a small apartment near the company and since then wished to start a company of my own. I have been working on that since then, I hope once I get the right investors, my dream might come true.

I came out of my thoughts and walked towards my desk and sat down, Mariha looked at me questioningly and I showed her the files and she understood.

"I think he has some type of enmity with you, no boss is that horrible to someone," she says sipping her coffee as I take my cup of latte and sip it, trying to ease the tension Rudra just gave me. I cannot refuse the party by not going, Siya was one of the constant and the only family members I have, I have had no contact with anyone for the last two years, no one called or checked if I was even alive, it's been just Siya, and it was one of the important days of her lives and she wanted me to come, and I would, I would go to the party by hook or by crook.

"My boss is," I say shaking my head as she looks at me with pity as I ignore it, I have been getting pity since my parents died, I don't need it anymore. I open the files and start my work.

I will be going to the party, do whatever you want Mr. Rudra Kapoor.
