HE WAS BOWLED OVER BY HER.

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Preeti POV
 
As ruby said, she quickly WhatsApped me his number. I had got his number, now what should I do? should I call him or give a second thought.

Is doing advertisements really my cup of tea, or am I getting into something really out of ordinary? what should I do?

I was pacing around in my room confused by the entire situation.I was actually in dilemma whether I should consider doing ads or just let it continue as it is going.

I am really desperate for money, i need money, since my mom is suffering from last stage breast cancer. And as days are passing her chemotherapy are also getting more frequent. Each chemotherapy costs in thousands. Though we approached many organizations but still we aren't able to afford it. I was already in search for a job so that out finances are met.

I have mentally prepared myself to ginti extent so that my mom can breathe another more day. I am.well aware that now  I have very little time with her. With each passing day, her health is also deteriorating. first she could walk now she just stays in bed , her body pains if she does anything. she has also thinned and like very fragile doll she lays on bed.

I just don’t want her  to suffer because of no money, Maybe just maybe if her treatment is properly done according to the doctor , her chances to live may increase, she might live a bit longer.

So its decided  now. I.will.take up advertisements big or small I will do any type of tole and any type of job small or big so that my mom can see another day. Moreover because of pandemic many people have gone away to their hometown, so my chances might increase of having more ads in my kitty for now. I should definitely give it a shot. Summing up small small amount would help me more.
 
 I heaved huge sigh of relief,  and gathering all my thoughts and courage,I finally dialed his number, he picked up the call immediately, 

“Hey, hi Mr Prakash  it’s me Preeti."

" hey, hi what's up kiddo, is everythi fine?" he asked me woth worry laced in his voice.

"Yup, all good,  it is just that ,you  had asked me if I am interested in doing ads or not? so after giving it a thought,  I have finally come up with the decision that yes I want to try in ads. it might be an additional income for me and I m free in the weekend mostly, I just go at Ruby’s café in the evening.” I said to him nervously in a single breath.
 
After a long pause he replied, “ I’ll see what I can do for you. I think on Thursday there is shot of Nescafe in the morning, I’ll see if you can get any role in that one, Preeti I ll try but cant give you any guarantee, so please dont keep high hope, I'm.just one of the casting director, the director is the one who gives green signal. I hope you will keep that on mind. But I will try my best.” He said assuring me.
 
 
“okay.” I said back and ended the call. I’ll wait for his call. Since nothing left to do till 3 30, I decided to clean my room and have a short nap.
 
By 3 30 In the afternoon I got ready and left for Ruby’s.
I quickly changed into my uniform and got to work.

It was  the same monotonous routine,  taking orders and serving from.one table to anotherand at the same time giving take outs also. Everything was going perfectly normal until he entered the café.

tThe entire aira of the cafe changed..He entered with his swag wearing glasses and his hoodie. his face was covered with mask, yet I knew it was him.

Obviously you will know,  because its him only who can make your heart beat so wildly. My stupid inner voice had a say.

He was wearing a tracksuit and  a matching navy blue mask. He had worn trendy white sneakers. he was the same guy with whom I had done that add.

He found himself a seat and sat at the furthest corner in the cafe and was going through the menu. Since his face was well hidden nobody could recognize him. I m glad, he chose the furthest table away in the corner. That means he is not an attention seeker. Good, I don’t know actually why but it kind of made me happy, maybe because I was anticipating a drama as soon as he walked in.

People would hover him and our café would in no time turn into a selfie zone. They would break all the social distancing rules.

I don’t know why, but I was quite nervous when I approached him to take his order. I kind of have weird feeling when u am around him. even in that short duration when I was doing the add opposite to him. he kind of make me nervous with his intense gaze towards me.
 
“he won’t even recognize you.” I said to myself assuring myself that I'm.a nobody to him. he might not even remember my face. And with the little confidence I could muster, I walked towards his table.
 
“Sir, what may I get for you?,” I asked him.
 
He looked up from the menu and our eyes locked.
