Preeti's point of view
 

It's already a 7 p.m of the evening but my work isn't complete yet. There is a some problem in cash.
 

When I telly the cash it shows short in cash. Cash in my hand did not match the records in computer. I start getting panic. I telly the cash again and again but it shows same result. It never happened before by me. I mean it happen before  that the cash was get short by mistake but it happen first time by me and that to be 50,000 rs.
 

I go to the manager and tell him everything. He scolded me in front of everyone and soon every member of staff start searching  the cash. Some check the files of withdrawal and deposit  and some check the telly register again. But everyone fails to found out that where the cash got short.

"Preeti....Preeti..." Manager(my boss) started shout my name.

"I already warn you about today that I don't  want any mistakes. Your three month salary will be cut. This is your mistake. So you have to pay for it." Manager yelled on me.

"Sorry sir...but how this was my mistake. It never happen before by me. Please..don't cut my salary. I'll pay you in installments." I pleaded  in front of him. Now staff  gathered to watch the drama where Manager sir shouting on me.

"No, sir...don't listen to her. Just cut her three month salary so she get the lesson." Priyanka  said venomously.

"She always do her work carelessly. Today also She is talking to someone on phone. I saw her from my desk." She said looking at me.

Then it clicks in my mind that Priyanka  handel the cash counter when  I went to Nidhi to help her in some loans.

"Priyanka handel the cash for sometime when I went to Nidhi to help her. Maybe it's her mistake that she got the cash short." I said to manager.

"What did you just said, you whore. You left the counter for just a minute. You were busy whoring around  that's why cash got short." Priyanka said with in anger. Tears welled  up in my eyes hearing her vulgar words for me.

"Priyanka watch your language before speak." manger said to her.

"No sir I'm telling the truth. She spread her legs in front  of everyone to get her job done from them and when they couldn't full fill her wish she stole money from here." She said looking at me with so much hatred.

Tears are not stopping from  my eyes when she said such things to me. Thank God Siddharth isn't  here yet. What will he think about me if he heard such false things about me and how people treated me like a trash in my work place and what they think about me. What will he think that I have no respect at my work place. Thinking all of this fresh tears streamed out from my eyes.

Everyone  is watching  all this like a show but no one came forward to stop Priyanka say such words to me they all were just stood there like a statues and hear her vulgar words to me.

Not everyone in here is bad as Priyanka, some of them are kind and are my friends but they all afraid to say anything against to her cause they don't want to lose their job. I looked at Nidhi for help that she come in front and tell everyone truth about Priyanka but she smirked at me.

How could  I forget that she is one of the minions of Priyanka. Nobody  wants to mess with her because she is a girlfriend  of our boss and the daughter of the management head of the city.

"Please, don't say this." I whispered between my sobs while lowering my head.

"What happen bitch, can't hear your truth." She mocked me.

"Babe... what are you saying?" Manager asked her.

"Babe... I saw a handsome guy with her in black audi, who dropped her to office this morning and they were about to kiss. I'm sure he is a new customer of her, isn't he Preeti." She spit venomously.

That's it, she can say anything  to me but she don't  have any rights  to say anything against my Siddharth.

"Don't say anything vulgar about him Priyanka. I swear to God I won't spare you if you said any single word against him. Don't bring him in your dirty politics." I said angrily  while pointing my fore finger to her.

"You are the one who stole the money. I saw you, you hide something in your purse when I came back to my counter. Show your bag to everyone. " I said to her angrily while tears keep streaming out from my eyes.

"Preeti..don't fuckin blame to others when we all know that mistake is yours and don't dare to talk to her like that." Manager (my boss) barked in anger and looked at me furiously.

Priyanka take a step towards me while glaring at me and greeted her teeth.

"What did you just say bitch, huh.." she raised her hand to slap me.

I shivered in fear and squeezed my eyes shut tightly. I am ready to take the pain and wait for her hand to hit me but it didn't come.

I opened my eyes slowly and saw Siddharth  holding Priyanka's hand in air and look at her with red bloodshot angry eyes. His jaw is clenched, shoulders are tensed. His veins are popping out in anger and his other hand is balled in fist.

He slowly  turn his head towards me and look at me with bloodshot angry eyes. Tears are hung on my lashes making them heavy and I looked at him with my red puffy teary eyes. His eyes soften little  bit looking at me but he cover it up soon before anyone can see them and turn his head again towards Priyanka with a rage of anger in his eyes. He left Priyanka's hand with a jerk.

Siddharth  open his mouth to say something but I held his hand in mine to stop him and shake my head as 'no' while looking down but he ignored  me.

"Say any word against to my fiance. I will make sure to make your fucking life living hell that you regret to work here." Siddharth said to Priyanka in his dangerous angry voice.

".....and if you ever I mean ever raised your hand to her  you regret the day you born." Siddharth said every word slowly and dangerously while look at her with his furious eyes.
