After that day, both became busy in work. Sid was signing for big projects while Sana was doing MSK and she also signed for many projects.

While doing MSK, Sana realised that signing for this show was the worst decision she ever took. The concept of this show was meaningless. Moreover staying in the same house was reminding her the memories of her and Sid. In this house they met each other, their friendship started here, their feelings for each other developed here and here everything ended too. Sana also started realising how much important Sid was for her. Maybe she could give their relationship a chance.

After one month, the stupid show MSK ended. Sana couldn't choose any guy as her heart already belonged to Sid. She was just taking time to be sure.

As soon as she came out of the house, the government announced lockdown because of coronavirus. Everyone's work stopped. People got time to spent with themselves and their families. And this lockdown helped Sana to realise her actual feelings. She realised that she loved Sid.

She used to watch bb13 clips and their cute moments. She understood how Sid always stood by her without even showing. How his actions always expressed his love for her. Even she also loved him from the first day but never realised when she was inside the house, not even when Sid proposed her on her birthday.

Many times Sana tried to contact him through calls and messages but he never replied. He had totally detached himself from her.

On the other hand, Sid's condition was not good. He thought that after BB he would keep himself busy in work and it would help him to forget Sana. But during lockdown, the memories started haunting him more. He was trying to get rid of his own feelings, that was why he never contacted her or replied her calls and messages. But still he was not being able to forget her.

One day, Sid was playing with his niece, Riya and she was whining continuously.

"Mamu mujhe Shehnaaz Mami se milna hai. Mumma ne kaha tha ki aap jab bahar aaoge toh sab ko unse milwaoge. Par aap ne abhi tak humein unse nahi milwaya. Baatao na hum Shehnaaz Mami se kab milenge?" Said Rita.

Sid was getting annoyed by this topic.

"Firstly, she is not your Mami. Aur rahi baat unse milne ki toh, abhi lockdown chal raha hai. Hum unse nahi mil sakte." Said Sid sternly.

"Video call toh kar sakte hai na? Please Mamu please...."

Riya was being very stubborn.

At last Sid lost his patience and yelled, "Ek baar naa bol diya na? Jaao apne room mein."

Riya became sad and left from there.

Rita Maa was standing outside his room. Since many days she noticed the change in his behaviour and also knew the reason behind it.

She went to him and said, "Aise kab tak chalega Beta?"

Sid looked at her with moist eyes and said, "I don't know Mom. Mere saath aisa kyu ho raha hai? Aaj tak kabhi kisi ke liye itna feel nahi kiya. Kabhi kisi ke baare mein itna nahi socha. Try karta hoon usse bhulne ki lekin woh bhi nahi hota. Why do I love her so much Mom? Why?"

"Beta kisi se pyaar karna humare haathon mein nahi hai. Pyaar toh bas yun hi ho jaata hai. Lekin agar saamne wala aap se pyaar na kare, toh aage badh jaana hi sahi hai. Haan iss mein takleef zaroor hogi, par waqt ke saath saath tum jeena seekh jaaoge." Said Rita Maa to which Sid nodded.

After few months, the lockdown period ended. People started going back to their normal life.

Sid started shooting for Broken But Beautiful 3, the web series he signed before lockdown. Sana also started doing music videos. They again became busy in work.

It was the first day shoot of BBB 3. Sid knew there was some newcomer who was playing the role of the female lead. But he didn't meet her yet.

He was standing outside the studio wearing his mask. Suddenly a girl came to him and said, "Excuse me, umm... Aap ne Sidharth Shukla Sir ko dekha hai? Woh iss webseries ke male lead ka role play kar rahe hai. Abhi kuch din pehle Bigg Boss bhi kar ke aaye hai. Winner hai. Actually first time I'm doing an web series that too with such a famous co-actor so shoot shuru hone pehle ek baar introduction ho jaata toh...."

Before she could complete, Sid removed his mask and said smiling, "Mere baare mein mujhe hi itna information dene ke liye thank you so much."

The girl bit her tongue and said, "S.. Sidharth Sir.... Sorry I didn't know it was you...."

"It's ok." Said Sid.

The girl smiled and said forwarding her hand, "Sonia Rathee!"

"Sidharth Shukla. You already know me." Said Sid shaking hands with her.

Then they broke the handshake.

"First day hai na.... Isliye thodi nervous hoon. But excited bhi hoon. Aap ke saath kaam karne ke liye. Aap senior actor hai. Kahi galti ho jaaye toh sambhal lena, Sidharth Sir." Said Sonia.

"Woh toh thik hai bas Sidharth ke aage yeh Sir mat lagayo. Better rahega."

Sonia laughed and said, "Okay Sorry. Only Sidharth."

Sid smiled. Then they were called inside and started for shooting.

During their shoot, Sid and Sonia easily became friends. They used to be with each other all the time. Though it was only friendship, the media started spreading false rumours on their relationship.

Here Sana seeing twitter as she loved to see the posts, edits and trends made by SidNaaz fans. Suddenly she came accross a news on twitter.

"Is Sidharth Shukla dating his co-actress Sonia Rathee?"

As soon as she read the news, her eyes became teary and hands started trembling. There was a photo of Sid and Sonia where they were looking happy with each other. Sana felt needles in her heart seeing the pic. Was the rumour true?

Sana kept her phone beside and started crying loudly.

Hearing her cry, Baaz entered the room.

"Moto kya hua?" He asked sitting beside her.

Sana was not saying anything. She was only crying.

Baaz's eyes fell on her phone's screen and he understood everything. He rested Sana's head on his shoulder and started consoling her.

"Tujhe toh paata hai na yeh saare news kitne fake hote hai? Phir inn sab chizon ko dil pe kyu le rahi hai?" Said Baaz.

Sana wiped her tears and said sobbing, "Yeh.... Sach.... Nahi hai na?..... I didn't..... Lose him."

"No Baba. They are just co-actors or maybe friends. Tu bhi jab kisi ke saath kaam karti hai, toh yeh saare rumours aate hai na? Kya woh sach hote hai?"

Sana nodded in no.

"Phir? Bekar mein tension le rahi hai. Sahi kehte the Sidharth Bhai. Gadhi hi hai tu."

"Baaz, mujhe paata hai mujhse bohut badi galti hui hai. Jis insaan ne mujhse sabse zyada pyaar kiya, maine uss hi ka dil toda. Kyu ki tab mujhe ehsaas nahi tha. Aur ab jab ehsaas hua hai, main usse khona nahi chahti. I want to tell him how I feel about him. I just need one chance. Kya main uske bhi layak nahi hoon?"

"Aisa nahi hai. You will get the chance. Tab usse baata dena. Ab rona band karegi yaa main gudgudi karu?"

Sana stopped crying and laughed hearing that.

Soon the day the came when destiny again brought them together. It was BB13 success party which was arranged at Paras's house. He was the one who arranged the whole party and invited everyone. All the contestants of BB13 reunited there but Sana came only for Sid. Today she wanted to confess everything. She couldn't keep her feelings inside her heart anymore. After that it would be Sid's decision whether he would accept her or not.

Sana didn't interact much with other contestants. She was standing at a corner with Shefali and waiting for Sid.

"Yeh Sid kaha reh gaya. Aayega bhi yaa nahi?" Said Sana getting impatient.

"Aa jayega tera Romeo. Ek hi question baar baar puch ke mujhe mat paka." Said Shefali to which Sana glared her.

Suddenly Sid entered the hall dragging everyone's attention. All of a sudden Sana became very much excited. She wanted to go to him when suddenly Sonia came from behind and hold his hand. Sana felt heartbroken seeing them together.

"BB 13 ki success party mein Sonia Rathee kya kar rahi hai?" Asked Shefali in a low voice.

Sana didn't respond and kept looking at them sadly. Soon SidNaaz shared an eye-lock for a few seconds. But it didn't stay for long as Sid took off his eyes. Sana understood that he wanted to ignore her. He had been doing this after MSK premiere and now Sana became habituated of his ignorance.

Sid talked with the others except Sana. Though she herself could go and talk to him, she didn't get the courage as Sonia was with him all the time. Sana thought that her place was taken.

After sometime they all started dancing except a few. Sid and Sonia went to the dance floor together while Sana was one of the few who were not dancing.

Sid and Sonia were dancing close, not because there was some romantic angle. It was just they were very comfortable around each other.

Sana felt shattered seeing them together. Shefali kept her hand on Sana's shoulder and indicated her to stay strong.

"Hey ladies! Enjoying here?" Asked Paras coming there to which Sana and Shefali both gave a forceful smile and nodded in yes.

"Good. Why don't you go and dance?"

"No thanks." Replied Sana.

"Kyu Sana? Tujhe toh dance karna bohut pasand tha. Ab kya hua? Udhar dekh, sab dance kar rahe hai. Specially Sidharth and Sonia. They are looking damn good together." Said Paras intentionally to hurt Sana.

"Accha Paras ek baat baata. Yeh success party toh humari thi na? Sonia ko kyu invite kiya?" Said Shefali.

"Arrey Sonia toh Sidharth ki girlfriend hai, I know. Maine socha Sidharth akele kahi bore na ho jaaye isliye Sonia ko bhi invite kiya usse company dene ke liye. But I have to say, they make a great pair. What say Sana?"

Sana couldn't hear anymore and left from there while crying.

Sid saw her leaving while crying and became worried. He also went after her.

Coming outside Sana bursted into tears, thinking about Sid and Sonia. She didn't want to believe that they were dating. It couldn't be true.

Suddenly someone passed a hanky towards her. Sana looked beside and found Sid.

She chuckled painfully and asked, "Showing sympathy huh?"

Sid didn't say anything and wiped her tears with his hanky.

"You can think like that."

Saying that he kept the hanky inside his pocket. He was about to leave when Sana hold his hand.

"Teri problem kya hai Sidharth? Itna kyu hurt kar raha hai mujhe? Ab bas kar jaa. I beg you." She said in a crying voice.

Sid turned to her. He grabbed her shoulders angrily and said, "Main tujhe hurt kar raha hoon? Hurt toh tune mujhe kiya hai woh bhi kayi baar. Phir bhi tu hurt na ho isliye main tujhse dur tak chala gaya. Ab aur kya karu main?"

"And that hurt me the most." Screamed Sana. "Kyu gaya tu mujhse dur? Pehle mujhe contact nahi kiya, phir mere calls aur messages ignore kiye. Ab idhar bhi tu mujhe ignore kar raha hai uss Sonia ki wajah se. Woh kaun hai? Girlfriend hai teri? Are you dating her?"

"Sana stop this nonsense."

"No I need to know. Mujhe jaan na hai tu usse date kar raha hai yaa nahi?"

"Agar kar bhi raha hoon toh tujhe kya? You wanted me to move on. So tujhe fark nahi padhna chahiye. Now leave me."

Sid tried to get out of her hold but Sana pulled her by his collar.

"Fark padhta hai isliye puch rahi hoon. And you have to tell me. Are you dating or not?" Asked Sana in a loud voice.

"Yes I am dating her!"

Sid too replied loudly leaving Sana shocked.

"I have moved on Sana. I don't love you anymore. I love........"

Before he could complete, their lips crashed with each other. His words died in his mouth when Sana claimed his lips as hers. Sana couldn't control herself anymore. She couldn't hear him confessing his love for anyone else. She was kissing him passionately. After sometime Sid also reciprocated with equal passion. Sana kept his hands on her waist and locked her hands around his neck. Sid dug his nails on her waist while kissing her hungrily. It was their first kiss so they both didn't want to break it soon. It lasted until they both became breathless.

Breaking the kiss, they joined foreheads while breathing heavily.

"Ahheemmm!" Sonia cleared her throat and they both came back to reality and looked at her.

"Woh.... Andar tum dono ko bula rahe hai. They are cutting the cake. So.... If you come...."

Sid left Sana and said to Sonia, "Let's go."

Sonia nodded and they both left together. Sana watched them leaving.
