Chapter 2

Ben called upon his agents to look for a replacement to Hourry. This time, all were in for a surprise as the agents found a woman in place of Hourry.

They had never worked with a woman before and did not know how it felt like. They were too scared because they believed that women don’t keep up with me. I was not too sure about it myself then and thought we could try. Thus came in our Beauty. She was as beautiful as her name was and had a charisma which anyone would fall for.

She joined in and was very eager to meet all her colleagues. Secondy showed up just for a moment and even before she could greet him, he had started with his work. She found his behavior to be a bit unusual but yet did not give it too much of thought. Ben showed her around and she was amused to see how big and important he was. She thanked him for giving her this job. Ben however wanted her to understand how important this job is for him and for the rest of the people, of course to me as well and also shared his anxiety about working with a woman for the first time. She promised to work hard and deliver precisely what was expected out of her.

Minutty was the one who never wanted to meet her because he never really wanted to work with a woman. He was happy here, with his male friends and was hoping to continue the same way. When Ben talked to him about Beauty, he was really upset and wanted to quit immediately but did not, out of respect for Ben. Ben was already in pain over the loss of Hourry and did not want another of his trusted man to stop working for him.

Beauty started with her work and encountered Minutty for the first time at 12. She liked him and found him to be a very passionate and charming young man. She wanted to talk to him, but Minutty was in a conversation with Secondy and did not want to interrupt. Minutty did not even have a look at her and she felt it was very rude for him to behave this way. She convinced herself to forgive him since she knew they were all unaware of working with a woman.

Thus began the journey of Beauty and Minutty with Secondy taking the lead in Ben. She did a fair job on her first day at work and the men felt it was not as bad as they had expected.

I felt love on the very first day. I could see what Beauty and Minutty could do together if they loved each other and was sure that someday they would.

It was on the second day at work that Minutty saw Beauty for the first time though I wondered how he could not even get a glimpse of her on the first day!

He was awestruck with her charm and beauty and felt very stupid for not having spoken to her earlier. Throughout the day, at dawn, noon and dusk he kept watching her, the way she moved, her precision and the way she cared for her work. He inspired her to work hard and move faster so he could see her more often but since he was driven by me, could not just jump to places so easily. Also Secondy would never allow that to happen.

Soon Beauty became friends with Secondy and they both liked conversing with each other. Minutty however felt lonely as he wanted to speak to her but always hesitated. He always felt weird about striking a conversation with her. Often he would rehearse on how he could say “Hello” to her and compliment her for her hair or suit. When the moment came he would tremble and end up not saying anything.

I kept watching him do this everyday and thought I should help this fellow. Secondy too had noticed this and felt they both should talk if not for love, which he was not up for, at least for good work culture.

Once when Beauty was at 5, Minutty came over. It was very beautiful outside as the Sun was slowly making his way into the sky. Beauty enjoyed watching the Sun and Minutty enjoyed watching her.

“Isn’t it beautiful out there?” she spoke. He shuddered with fear as he was so not prepared for that conversation and said “Yes it is the same every day”.

What a fool to have said that, he thought to himself and said “Sorry, I did not mean to say something like that but you know…. I am … I don’t have any … ah..” It was as if he had almost forgotten what he had to say.

She said “You are very handsome, I like you a lot, would you come with me for a coffee someday?”

He nodded to say yes and thought of staying with her for some time before Secondy could drag him front. He was so annoyed with Secondy and felt very angry that he had interrupted their meeting. Not to feel disappointed, he said to himself that he can meet her again shortly.

They met again and kept meeting each other. They were in great love and it was very good to see what their love had done to Ben. Ben was also very happy to know about them and blessed them to be happy forever.

Things looked great until that time when they both felt the need to be together always. Ben was not structured to help that desire of theirs. They both knew this but yet wished to be together. Secondy was not in favor of this as he felt their desires would affect work and wanted them to let go.

Minutty was very pursuant and met Ben in private and spoke to him of his love for Beauty and that he wanted to be with her and have a family. Though Ben liked him, he did not agree to it as it would mean they cannot stay with him. Minutty begged him to let go of them.
