Teja bid goodbye to Karan and cut the call . She wanted to meet him and send him off in person but her shoot schedule didn't allow her to . She had changed into casuals and was leaving for her car from the vanity . Her team had already left and she stepped outside to find everything pitch dark .
They were shooting a little far from the usual location and she was unfamiliar with the surrounding . She called her driver to ask if he was here . She walked a little still on call when she out of nowhere heard her name being called.

" Teja ji "
" Teja ji "
"Teja ,idharr ! "

It took her a moment to realise it were paps . She found her car and cut the call with driver . She immediately ran and sat in the car . The media people that had gathered were too many . Light flashed harshly in front of her eyes that stopped her from closing the car door .
She felt scared for a moment with all the frenzy . Too many people , too many cameras and most of them she didn't recognise . The usual paps were not here and she didn't want to pose for the unknown ones .

She tried closing the door , but someone pushed his hand , and place their camera right infront of her face . She tried maintaing a smile and ushered them off as respectfully as possible .

All the media attention was anyway new to her . She was trying to get accustomed to this and there was no denying she felt more comfortable around paps and posing for them when Karan was with her . Something about him being with her eased her . Even if she feel uncomfortable with paps , he always managed to divert them and make her feel comfortable . But he was not here today and nor were the usual paps .

The driver sat back after closing the door but everybody had blocked the way . She leaned back in her seat and shook her head at their behaviour . It was too sacry . She could hear their voices distantly , calling her and taking Karan's name to tease her .

At the moment all she wanted was Karan , even if on call . But he would have just boarded and his phone would be on flight mode . So she didn't bother .

***********

Karan stood at the boarding area of airport. His team was lounging and he was buying a water bottle. His phone pinged with notifications which was usual .The immense love he was getting overwhelmed him and he tried responding to as much as he can , wherever he can . They all moved when the announcement was made.

He opened his instagram as he settled in his seat Omi beside him. Instanly pictures of teja papped came infront of him . He smiled looking at her face. It was not even a few hours and he missed her already .

He didn't get to see the videos of her being papped but only pictures in which she was smiling and looked like a laddoo . She looked tired though . He knew she was overworking herself and he respected her for the fact because he could never ever work continuosly so hard like she did without any break .

He put his phone on flight mode as instructed and decided to take a nap .

*********

Teja's house came in vision and she could already see paps gathered around . To be honest it creeped her . she didn't want them following her like that . She never was keen of being papped and posing everysingle time and post bb the craze may have increased but her thoughts remained similar .

She needed to tell her PR to keep them away . Till now she was being respectful and cooperative but today seemed a little too much . It was also not safe for her parents when they camped like this outside her house .

She stepped outside and ran as fast as possible . Her mom refused them and closed the door . They had even crossed the main entry and come till the door .
