Falling You ~

"Awesome!" Adithya exclaimed. Everyone in the set applauded for Shivaay after the scene has been shot. He bowed down his head expressing gratitude.

Adithya narrowed his eyes when Shivaay smiled a bit wide. He followed his eyes to see Annika standing there, slowly clapping for him.

He walked towards her and said, "I was delighted when you agreed to present on set yesterday. But, I think you have your own reasons for agreeing"

Annika sighed without sparing a look at him. She looked up from the ground when Shivaay came to her.

"No. I'm good. Thank you" Shivaay politely denied the staff who extended a bottle of water to him.

"I was not expecting you here" He said. She could feel the happiness comes from within as it laced in his voice and eyes. She felt both good and clueless to be a reason behind his smiling face.

"Thank me. I compelled her to come. I wanted her to be a part in the first day of shooting" Adithya kept his hands on her shoulders. She sighed pushing away his hand.

"Surely. Thank you, Adithya. It feels good to have her around" Shivaay said. Annika stared at him whilst twisting the corner of her lips.

Adithya looked amazed at his words and her calm reaction.

"Yeah. I'll be right back guys" Adithya excused himself. He turned around, looked at them. "They're filming a romantic movie in their eyes itself. Hmm."

"So...Miss Annika, are you free tonight ? We—-" A staff interrupted him, "Sir. Next shot is ready"

Shivaay nodded to him briefly. He looked at her with bottom lip pushed out.

"You should go now" She said making him sigh inside.

"You're leaving already ? You just came"

"I don't have the whole day. I've some works to attend to. Good day" She turned around. He looked down in disappointment.

"And..." He looked up in instant as she continued, "I'm free tonight"

She walked away without turning around a moment. His face grinned the wide.

"When are you planning to tell him ?" Rudra asked standing behind her. She gave him a look from the mirror and continued brushing her hair.

"Okay. Not going there. At least tell me about these date series ? Must you be look so serious for a simple question didi ? Chill. I'm not asking you anything" He gestured as zipping his mouth.

"What do you want to know ?" She asked turning around to him.

He grinned kept his hands on her shoulders, "Do you like him ? Tell me what's on your mind"

"I always liked him. Rudy. There's nothing special now"

"Then..wh—-" She cut in, "That's different. No debate. Do the practice questions I kept on the table. Make sure you complete them before I return. Hmm"

He nodded smiling. She caressed his face and left the room.

"Di, once you—-wait! Is that him ? Woah! That's him! Right ?" Rudra slapped his palm above his mouth in astonishment.
