The story starts when Gireeja went for an interview round, second time- for the same interview. Same again, a little test before the actual interview. (we software Developers have that kind of interviews. first we have Multiple choice test, if we pass that we go on a next round where we have a Technical interview then HR interview, like many more and then we get a job with satisfactory package.)
she needs to pass this interview round today by any how. Couse it's a top Multi-National Company she is giving interview for. she really wanted to get employed here. coming from a middle class family, her parents have spend over budged on her education and now it's her turn to pay them back. but even after graduation her luck was not by her side. as she was trying from last 2 years, but she couldn't grab that developer designation in any Company. All her friends got a job and that was anther pressure on her.
she entered in a examination hall with all that thoughts in her mind. She only wanted to focus on that Test. she also thought, "the co-ordinator guys here are really cute. Yes! she is this kind of person. her mind romes all around the place. she is extremally creative and kind of jolly. She has this massive confidence on her good for nothing artistic skills. and sometimes she really thoughts, why she dicided to have a profession as a developer! then she reply herself that, it pay's really good. and to be happy, all she need is Money. Some good flow of cash and all her problems will get solved. She have a mind set that money is the solution for all her issues. so, she defiantly need to start collect them as soon as possible now.
Test was completed in 50 mins. she thought, this time she will ‘pass’ as she did pretty good in that test. Company will send results on personal mails in a 4 to 5 days period. So, now she need to pray and wait until then. As times up, all 40- 50 interviewee went to the exit door. it was her second time so she knew that, it gonna be pretty crowded on a exit door. She waited a little bit admiring the architecture of that amazing building and then went towards the counter to get her bag.
She tried to put her hall ticket in her bag, but that A4 size paper sheet was not ready to go inside. she wanted to scramble it in a ball and throw it in a bag, but of-course she didn't do that, as she need this for next round. She took all her things out, inside from bag as she had pushed wet umbrella with her mobile before leaving towards examination hall. She was tacking all her time and doing that very carefully. Suddenly someone tapped on her shoulder saying, “Excuse me.”
she realize how much time she is holding that place, as someone else also might have need their bag. she turned toward the voice and said, “ sorry, Please let me just grab my bag.” But The guy says, “Hi, Actually I wanted to talk to you.” as she heard that, she looked in her both sides to confirm is he really talking to her or with someone else. Then she looked at him, The guy was really good looking and wearing branded cloths. she thought he is 75% Cute looking and deserves 10 out of 8 or maybe 8.5 points for his looks. (Yes, she judge people like this). As she looked at him, she didn't think she knows this guy. she didn't remind, if she know him from anywhere. So she replied politely, “sure! how can I help you?”
The guy took a long breath as he was collecting courage and said, “Actually I liked you and I wanted to know about you more. so, Please can I have your Contact Info…” She again looked around her to confirm, is he really talking to her? Is he wearing Bluetooth or earplugs and talking with someone on a phone and she is just misunderstanding? Is this some kind of prank? she was confuse and surprised as much as any girl will get. He looked at her and said, “I know it's hard to believe, but I saw you in the morning, I was standing right behind you while registration. and as soon as I saw you, I got interested in you. So, will you please let me know your contact number so, we can keep a touch.” Ofcourse with surprise, she said, “I don't even know you! how can I share my contact with some stranger.” He said, “ that's why, right…! How will you know me if you won't even give me a chance?” she thought, It's a fair point he have. but still, it's not rational to give out contact info. So, she suggest, “ You should give me your info instead and I'll get back to you.” He suddenly pull out a piece of paper and wrote down his phone number and Email address as well. she thought “who will contact on Emails nowadays!, that's something different.” and looking at her with full hope he said, “So you will contact me right! is that promise.” She looked at him and his impatience, and said with the intentions to hurt his feelings, “You Know what nothing comes free in this world. everything has it's correct price. You can just pay me 1000 rupees in a cash and I'll guaranty that I'll contact you.” She thought he will run away from her after hearing this statement. He will understand, she is not good as he thought. But instead he said, “Just give me 2 mins, stay right here. I'll come back with cash. just wait okay…”
