Under fair words, beware of fraud - Part 1 - Fair words

I was giving my statement at the police station. The police constable started typing in the local language. I was very nervous at that time.  As soon as I started speaking, my inner mind was already reached in past.  It was my first day in the company. It was a marketing company and was supplying goods from regional stores to distributors and other clients.  We had a warehouse and an office attached. We hardly were ten people in the office.  Rao K. V., a very young, dynamic, and very friendly in nature, was manager of the regional office. I entered the office and was welcomed by him with a very gentle smile on his face. He was very polite and talkative in nature. He inquired about my family and wished me the best of luck. I was in heaven because getting a friendly boss normally happens only in dreams. I was feeling so lucky because you win half of the war during joining a new company if you get a good boss. He had kept the office atmosphere very pleasant. In just a few days, I got very much comfortable with my all colleagues.  He used to take care of and guide us so well that we even used to take personal problems to him.         
              I remember, when I was required to go to Nagpur, India by flight for some work, he guided me each step like one explains to a kid with every minute details. My tour was successful. I used to travel to different places with him for client visits. He used to fight for us for our expenses and facilities with management. What else an employee requires? Very soon, we started following and believing in him. He had started a new initiative that every month, we used to go for a movie and dinner in a good restaurant with all our company colleagues.            
Now, you can understand that employees like me were so impressed by him then, how much his boss and superiors would have been impressed. No doubt, he was taking care of all bosses and superiors equally. They were not only satisfied but used to believe blindly in him.

Mystery of a shoe bomb

     Lily unlocked the back door of the thrift store using a key that didn't belong to her. She entered the store with silent footsteps. It was late at night, and the only people in the store were security guards stationed outside. Lily had entered the store from the backyard as both security guards were on the front side dealing with a psycho client who was yelling at the business for poor product quality. She dashed towards the processing portion of the business, where donated items are accepted, verified, and refurbished. There were several cameras, wires, and other items that were kept discretely. She instantly began looking in the midst of the mayhem. She found the camera after some searching. There was some data on the camera chip that may assist Lily save her boyfriend. While the data was being collected, Lily began visualising the beginning of this narrative. Lily had just received her first pay check as a schoolteacher. She had set up a date with her boyfriend, Joh

The boss and The embarrassment

 For my company's party, my boss and I wanted to go to a party hall. We started from the company itself, in his car. Everyone else left first. We were late because we had some work to do. Those were the days when I was extremely fortunate to work for the ideal company, ideal boss, and ideal location. Everything felt like a dream. My boss used to be very nice to us. He knew the name of the party hall but not the exact location. I asked him if he knew the address. But he was confident that we would figure out the location once we reached there. What can a subordinate do? I nodded my head.  We arrived at the location. There were no lights in the vicinity. He was certain that the Party hall was nearby, but we couldn't pinpoint the exact location. We continued our search on the road for some time. But we couldn't figure out where it was. So I suggested calling HR to confirm the location. "Don't worry, gentleman," he said. "We'll find out." M

"A thief is a thief, whether he steals a cucumber or a diamond .”

Theft is a big profession in the world. From small level servants to big level people, can work under this profession. They earn a lot of tax-free money. I met lots of thieves in a different stages of my life. To take any object without the knowledge of the owner of the object is a theft. Every thief has his own reasons to do a theft.   I  was a child when I met a thief who used to take away children. That day, I was with my Aunt. We went to the dentist for some dental work. After that, we went to a medical shop. As I remember, I was just standing outside of the shop. My aunt was in the shop. A woman having one small child in hand came to me. She said “Come, I will give you chocolate” and she held my hand and started pulling me with her. I was so dumb that I had started walking with her silently. My aunt came back from the shop and to her surprise, I was not there on road. When she saw both sides of the road, she noticed that I was going with a lady with a child in
