Ch - 17

Sana stands at a corner with her head drawn low, she doesn't want to cry again like a weak person. It's not that she got hurt or something, everything is absolutely fine physically but it's hurt mentally. Is this all his childish way of taking revenge?

On the first day of her work, everyone starts making fun of her, they all laugh at her despite helping. Since childhood, she is a way sensitive child, maybe the reason only has one friend in her life. All are making fun of her by saying she is a nagging child, who can cry anytime anywhere.

But it's not her fault, that she is like this..can never able fight or give answers back to anyone. She is dumb, scared, this is the reason all play silly tricks to bullying her in school until she met Aastha. The same thing happened today, but she is not weak anymore...

Wiping her tears before they escape she just lean to the wall by lowering her gaze. Sidharth steal glances at her between his shots, he just wants to humiliate her in front of all without getting hurt. He knows it's not possible because they were standing over the soft mattress..

And he is successful at his plan, all her laughing at her..he wants to break the last nail of the coffin so that she comes out from her drama land and leave him on his clauses. Because it's getting impossible for him to gulping her sweet innocent act and that face...

His brows narrowed suddenly when he saw her wiping her tears silently and lowered her head., it made him feels a kind of guilty but that thought changes soon.. This also might be the act of showing herself helpless, groaning he asks someone to bring a glass of water..

It's becoming frustrating for him, he is not some heartless creature,.. Never in his life he behaves with someone like this, neither wanted to.. He has never been in this type of upbringing where shows how to misbehave with people. Yes, he has anger issues but also knows how to control them...

But from few months everything is just going out of his hands, first, the media portal proves him the arrogant, rude, proud stomach,..but he is not.. At that party, they utter nonsense about his family, and he can take anything but not any badmouthing about his loved ones...

They force him to behave badly then showcase it on their way,.. After that false allegations of molesting actresses, even casting couch..he not even thought to do anything in his wildest dream.. But this is the world where always the man is the culprit...

And after all this the wretched night came in his life, where all of sudden he got married to a cunning woman about whom he knows nothing except the name. Don't know that's also real or not. It might sound weird, but he dreamt to get married to whom he loves....

Just the way his parents, even Grandparents do.., he waited for love but it's all get vanished by that storm... Now he is getting being the person, he wasn't.. All he can feel is hatred, revenge, frustration... And it's increasing every time by saw her face....

His thoughts broke by the director's voice, nodded he go there. One thing is normal that the actress is good, she is just doing her work not being clingy and all like the last one. They stand there waiting for the next pose...

The photographer asks him to put one hand on her waist, cupped the face by the other..and look at her lips with intensity on his eyes, their noses should be touch and she have to keep her eyes closed. Nodded they are going to pose when the photographer says, "Wait, you both need a little touch-up.. Guys see it.."

His voice broke naaz out from her thoughts, she looks upward and saw joy gesturing her to go. Nodded she moves towards them, trying not to look towards him as she can feel his gaze on her. Before she reaches to him someone else starts doing his makeup and she is so thankful for this...

Taking a breath she starts doing Aditi's makeup, but her heart still beats faster due to his presence behind her. After done with all she moves towards her place, she narrows her brows when the photographer opens few buttons on his shirt...

She never saw shooting not even into movies, she loves to watch the art film more than Bollywood..didn't get what they are doing.. Her eyes widened when they both come so close, she is pulling him through shirt his hand on her waist and there's niches difference between their lips..

She doesn't know why, but feels her stomach crunched from inside..her heart feels a very weird ache by seeing him so close to someone in front of her eyes. It's all are new for her, she is not belong to this world, never saw anything like this in her whole life...

No matter how much he hates her, how much she ready to leave him but somewhere inside she accepted him as her husband on the day, they get married. It feels so heavy from inside to saw his closeness with someone else.

few minutes before she said them to be perfect but now that thought it feels like something stabbing on his heart. She doesn't know the feeling, but it's something she doesn't want to feel.. The stop tears unknowingly escape from her eyes..

They pulled back and done few more poses, in one they both laying on each other's shoulders or some few more...what is needed for the posters. Soon the shots were done, setting his shirt he took a glance of her by the corner of his eyes.. But before he could saw her face she turns around..

Rolling eyes he watch the photos and move to his vanity., he has a little meeting with the producer also...

Sana rushes to the washroom before anyone saw her red face, she continuously splashing water on her face,.. She needs to stop being the crying lady, he hates her and deserves this... It's already clear by him in the contract that he can do whatever wants she is no one to interfere.. And anyway they look good together.. Made for each other types..

She needs to be strong, wiping her face she put some kohl on her eyes.. A little makeup on her red cheeks and swollen eyes.. Then go outside by taking a deep breath,.. And saw joy standing there with narrowing brows, "Are you fine sana? Do you need anything? You can tell me."

With a forced smile she shook her head and says, "No, I just feel a little humidity there.. All fine sir." Nodded he asks, "So, how's the experience of the first shoot? It's anyway just the photoshoot, this series going to be hell romantic."

He continues saying, while she just nods by lost on her thoughts. After sometimes they shoot the music video for the promo, thankfully she doesn't have to do his makeup again.. After wrapping up all they set few things for tomorrow, as it's the first day of shooting.

Sana suddenly remembers that she has to ask for the advance, have to pay sidharth everything and also buy something. Today she eats in set with joy but what about the dinner and everything else. Taking a breath she moves towards jimmy's vanity and knocks, "Sir, may I come in!"

"Yes." A voice comes from inside, as soon as she enters inside her eyes widened by seeing sidharth sitting there, actually glaring at her. If she has any idea, never come here..gulping her saliva she says, "I..I will come later, sir.."

She is going to leave when Jimmy says, "No no tell me shehnaaz, what's the thing?" This is the last things she ever wants, but now there is no option like always. Lowered her head she stammers, "I..s..actually sir.. I..can you give me the..salary.. In advance.. I.. I needed it.. Badly.."

She completed the sentence by closing her eyes, don't want to open them and handle his deathly glares.. Jimmy says after a minute of silence, "Ohk, but what's the problem?" Opening her one eye she looks at sidharth, he twits his lips and turns his his head to the other side...

"I..need to pay the rent.." She sighed... Jimmy nodded and give her the salary, "I trust you." He said and received a chuckle from sidharth, "Don't trust anyone so easily Jimmy, you never know what is hidden between the innocent faces.."

"There is too much fog in the world which most of the time hiding cunningness behind them. Be careful." He stated by glaring at her and leave. Controlling herself she thanks him and go from there..
