An Unknown Boy : Chapter 1
Consider reading prologue before reading this chapter.
From Those Papers :
It was 9.30 pm. Still I was at the office. I was stuck. My three designs got rejected. My creative mind was not working anymore because these were my best attempts of all my creativity was involved in it. I referred to a couple of samples on various websites to get ideas, but nothing looked creative. I was just zooming in and zooming out a picture in Photoshop application in my system and thinking hard to get some creative idea. How can they reject my designs just like that, at least they would have given some feedback about it?
"Maja nahi aaya" What the hell was that. I was hired as a UI/UX designer not an entertainer. My mind was floating of thoughts of imaginary scenes like I was going to the reviewer and throwing my resignation on his face. I was about to walk out of the office in my imagination.
My phone buzzed, I ignored it and continued myself in the world of imagination. My phone buzzed again and again. It landed me back to reality.
I took out my phone and checked, there were 3 missed calls from Dancy. Dancy was my cousin and a good friend of mine.
I thought of sending her message saying that I will call her later, but I already did that couple of hours ago. She was very sensitive and short-tempered. If she explodes. No fire-brigade on the universe can handle her.
I shut downed my system and packed my bag and did put my bag over my shoulder and left the office.
I dialed Dancy's number. She picked up the call in a second. She didn't even let it ring.
"Where the hell were you?" I heard her over phone
I wondered people greet by saying hi or hello when they call. But
Dancy was an exception. Even the time bomb gives us a couple of minutes before exploding. But she exploded without any warning.
Her voice seemed angry. I could figure out that from the beautiful word 'hell' which she said.
"I am at the office, stuck here. You know all designs got rejected." I said calmly.
"I too working okay, 3 hours ago you said that you will call in 5 minutes. Still your 5 minutes didn't get over?" She shouted
"Arey! I was about to call you. My manager came. That's why I couldn't call you." I said
"Same old excuse Thomas. Grow up and find some better excuse" She said
Though it was my best excuse from my creative mind. But in front of Dancy, it didn't fit. I was out of my mind now handling her, it wasn't that easy. I didn't find any option than surrendering myself.
"Sorry Dancy, Is everything alright?" I asked
"Yes, everything is...
