Ch - 27

"So many things happened and you are calling me now? I hate you sana. Now you get new so start ignoring the old one, great go..be with them." Growled aastha from the other side of the call. Shaking her head in disbelief sana sighs, she knows very well that how big drama queen her friend is?

"I lost my phone, and because of the shooting, get indulged. Actually, I was nervous about asking phone from him. It easier to asks vivek sir rather than him." Sana justified with a pout.

She is standing at a corner, they are going to leave the hotel after some time. She doesn't know where her phone is after that day of a panic attack and doesn't know why it is so difficult asking sidharth for the phone. Today vivek himself give her the phone, saying she can call anyone if wants.

"Ohk ohk, I will fight with you in person. Be careful I will call you on this number, and please babes if you want anything in the way ask them for it. Don't set there starving, alright? If you can't then give someone the phone." Aastha stated in a scolding tone.

Smiling sana hummed, "As you say, teacher, now bye see you.".......

Sidharth standing leaning to the car, the rest crew members and actors are already left so there is no one to see her around with them. He is still amused by the way things changes in a week, his relationship with her. He never thought something like this could be possible, but not all the time things going your way or the way you thought.

Many times things didn't go well but in few cases, the unexpected changes are better. He is still not that well with her, the memories of his past actions yet creating fear inside her. But he have to make her open with him or others, but it won't be easy because he noticed that she is an introvert and above that she is the definition of innocence.

"Let's go." Vivek claps with a smile, nodded sidharth lift his head and saw her standing there silent as always. He is going to say something when Vivek interrupts, "Me and sana are sitting on the back, we will have fun ohk?" He gestures a high five towards her.

"Sana?" Sidharth stares at her with a confused frown.

Placing a hand over his shoulder druv mumbles with a smirks, "Her nickname, she asked us to address her like this. Don't you know about it siddy?" He glares at him with a forced smile then turn back to her, "No."

She blinks at him then lowered her head like a baby, they asked her and she tells them but he never asked before and not in any chance the innocent soul going to initiate this type of conversation with him at least not for now.

Opening the door of the backside Vivek says, "Because she likes us more than you, now get inside sweetest, fun is waiting for us." She is going to get inside when sidharth clears his throat, "Ah..I think she can enjoy a better view from the front, right?" He asked by gazing at her.

She lifts her eyes at him then look at others and shrugged her shoulders, "I..don't know." Druv shook his head and asks, "Which one do you like? Don't listen to anyone, do what you want."

Fidgeting with her fingers she looks at the car, he is going to sit in front which means if she chooses that have to sit with him and she is not in any way ready for this. Already she speaks less and by being close to him she forgets all alphabets.

Until she talks with aastha about these feelings it would be better if stay away from him, don't want to feel paralyzed by his presence near her. "Back." Said she instantly settled inside before any other discussion start.

Chuckling vivek wink at sidharth, rolling eyes all settled and starts the drive. Vivek and druv constantly speaking, cracking jokes involving in every line they trying their hard to break the wall between them, she might not answer much but laugh hard at the jokes.

Sidharth gazing at her from the mirror, he loves to see her giggling and laughing like this as it's something not usual for him and this fact making him feel irritated, why she is not like this with him? No matter how funny he tries to be she always maintains a composed position but with others she is free.

On one side he is happy that she is trying to open but sad also because it's not him with whom she is opening. He knows about judging her wrong, very wrong the situation she might face is definitely worse than him. The reason she is having those panic attacks, his guilt forced him more towards her.

His main reason behind showing so much hatred for her was because she broke his wish to marry someone whom he loves, but this dream was shattered because of her. But all this was past now somewhere he knows that she saves him from getting trapped in the actual plan.

If she wasn't there he might have married the woman who is planned for the trap. Taking a deep breath he glances at her and asks, "It's late, what do you want to eat s...naaz?" He smirks once at Vivek then focus on the drive.

Sana widen her eyes at him for few seconds an unfamiliar sensation travels all over her nerves, her heart almost pauses beating by heard a new nickname from him. None ever address her this before, this feels like someone startles the strings of her delicate heart suddenly.

"Naaz?" Vivek raises a brow with a slight smirk on his face. Nodded sidharth shrugs, "Hm hm.. I don't like the other nickname, isn't it good? Naaz?" He asked by turning at her. Pulled her lips between teeth she lifts eyes at him and shook her head in agreement.

Smiling he blinks at her and look forward, druv turn back and asks, "We speak a lot, now it's your turn shehnaaz. Remember the rules of friendship, from now you have to speak for at least half an hour non-stop. This is the first exam, ohk?"

Colliding brows she pouts at them then stare at sidharth who simply shrugs his shoulders making her frown at him. Suddenly she is feeling like standing in an essay competition where she have to speak for a mentioned time but no one gives her the topic yet.

"What will I say? I don't know anything, please change this exam rule. I am seriously too bad in this, you know how long half an hour means. And I even don't know you all well yet, what will I speak you didn't give me any topic also.

Trust me I never participate in any stage performance ever, because this speaking thing is not my cup of tea. Even with aastha, she speaks and I just listen to her most of the time. I am another level of an introvert, it's too difficult for me to talk with people I didn't know well..

Nothing to get offended ohk, I like you all a lot. I laugh this much for the first time in few days and also make this much of friends the first time, you all and aastha are my only friends but please, pretty please don't make me do this." She huffed by staring at them.

Mumbled with pleading eyes but it seems the cruel souls are not affected by anything. All just trying to control their laughs, she always comes out from her comfort zone whenever get nervous or panics.

Druv frowns at the name she used, but he shrugs his thoughts away there are many people roaming around with same names.

Sidharth stops his car and turns to her, "Do you realise, you just speak three paragraphs without stammering for a second?" Said he starts laughing with all, scratching her head she lowered her head then says, "I..speak too much whenever..."

"Get nervous." Sidharth completes her sentence with a smile, then come out from the car saying, "Come let's eat something, I am fucking starving." He opens the back door and found her glaring at him with furrowed brows, Vivek come out of the car by tapping sidharth's shoulder.

He didn't understand the reason behind his disgusting smirking, suddenly Vivek winks at him and slams his head. "What the fuck are you doing?" Sidharth groaned in an annoyed voice. Naaz giving him another glare then crossed both hands near his chest with a pout.

He didn't understand her behaviour, they all move inside fast before anyone capture them after recognizing sidharth. The restaurant is situated in an empty place, there are not many people inside also they choose a private cabin for more security.

All settled inside sidharth sit beside her before any of his friends shows their monkey nature, but he didn't understand why she didn't turn towards him for once. He is going to asks when vivek again kick on his legs from inside the table.

Closing eyes he sighed, "Fuck you Vivek, are you lost it or what?" He again smirked by gulping the saliva. Shaking head he turns to her and saw naaz glaring at him, "Why are you abusing so much?" She asked in a pissed tone.

"Hun?" He is completely shocked by her sudden question and glares, just one trip with these idiots and she is already changing. His shock broke by druv's voice, "Sana hates when someone uses abusive things or slangs."

Nodded he clenched his jaw at Vivek, his looks says he would kill him till now if she isn't here, Vivek simply winks at him and look at sana, "Sidharth is habitual of using these slangs on his sentence."

She scowls at him a little but didn't say anything, in her whole life she never uses any and also hates it whenever someone did this. Remember how she slaps aastha all the time uses something like this and now when they are also her friends should know this.

She can't slap sidharth but feeling irritated.

"He is lying, I am not habitual of anything." Sidharth gritted his teeth at him, this is really the irony. They are completely opposite of each other, he always used to be this bad, naughty boy and she seems the epitome of good and innocence.

In their case, he is the spicy one and she is the sweet one, now have to take care of his words because his so-called childhood best friends are not leaving any chance of humiliating him in front of her. The phrase is absolutely right in his case,

"Har ek friend kamina hota hai." Vivek should get awarded for this.

He turns half at her and says, "I won't use anything like this from future, promise." Shifting her eyes at him she mumbles with a slight smile, "Good." He so wanted to pinch her those cheeks at this moment but control himself and focus on the food.

After having lunch, all went towards the exit when suddenly don't know from where a group of media come attacking towards them. Widening eyes sidharth Immediately cover sana's face with her scarf and gestures to Vivek and druv to hide her.

But they are too late, the media already cover them with all cameras and questions, "What are you doing in a small restaurant sir?... Who is the girl with you?".. Is she your wife?.. Or you again having some affair?.. Is she an escort?"

The last sentence causing sidharth's blood to boil in anger, sana is already crunched between druv and Vivek they try to reach towards the car without letting anyone see or touch her. She is shivering in fear by all these sudden actions, this is more worst than whatever happened that day on the vanity.

Snatching the mike in anger sidharth yelled, "Shut your bloody mouth, don't you dare to utter the shit."

Druv look back in disbelief, this is what he hates the anger. Opening the door he gestures Vivek to take care and darted towards sidharth, "Move back, no questions." He somehow dragged sidharth to the car, pushed him on the back seat and leave from there as fast as they can.

Don't know from where media came in such a vacant place.

Sidharth punches on the seat in anger causing naaz to jump in fear, this is the moment he realises that how scare she is? Shaking head he cupped her face...........
