AUTHOR'S POV:

Meera's heart was not at ease since the morning. She had arrived on set around 7 , since she had an early morning shoot. But she was utterly disappointed on not finding Raghbir there.

"Why is Raghbir not present yet?" she asked tryig her best to sound as casual as she could.

"Areyyy you didn't know..? He had told Ranjan sir last night only that he would be here after 2 today. He has to go to pick someone up at the airport.", Ishika said making Meera more anxious.

Someone?? Is this his "sweetheart' whom he's gonna pick up? Meera Thought.

"And Ranjan sir agreed?", She asked suspiciously. "Hmm!! He didn't have much work today..majority of the parts are ours..! Thats why", Ishika said, munching her chocolate.
Hearing her, Meera's face fell. Nevertheless she continued doing her work.

It was around 1:30 when Raghbir arrived on set. Everybody were amazed to see the flower bouquet in his hands.

"Oyee hoyee Flowers?for whom?", Ishika smirked putting her hand on his shoulder. "For meera, she wasn't well. That's why", Raghbir said and Ishika smiled mischievously.
But raghbir just rolled his eyes.

He walked towards Meera's vanity. The door was opened so he decided to enter. But he was amused to see her sleeping on the couch. What amused him more was her posture, her lips slightly parted and her soft snores were filling the room. Smiling at her sleeping form, he went ahead and put the bouquets on the table.

He didn't have the heart to wake her up, so he decided to leave a note and went out from the vanity. Not before closing the door softly. For him, her sleep seemed more precious than anything at that particular moment.

Ishika and Richa, who were observing it from the corner , smiled brightly.

MEERA'S POV:

I was sitting in front of Raghbir when he carried on scrolling his phone. I couldn't help but think about the flowers that he had brought for me.

When i woke up from my nap, i saw a bouquet of flowers with a note attached to it. Initially i was shocked to see it there. But when i read the text an instant smile made its way towards my lips.

"Expecting your presence tomorrow at my birthday party Miss Kapoor . I hope you get well soon~R"

His care for the people around him is what makes him special and unique. I was in awe to see how careful he was towards me. Even During the recent shoot, he was supposed to drag me by my waist, but he had hold me so carefully.. As if i was a fragile flower and he made sure i was alright and comfortable at the same time.

My chain of thoughts were broken when i heard the loud ring of a phone.

"Hello Sweetheart, what happened?", Raghbir's concerned voice reached my ears and i looked at him.

He was again on phone. Talking to his 'sweetheart'!!

"Why? What's wrong?" His facial expressions changed into worry.

"Ohh okay, i thought something else", Raghbir Chuckled.

Who is he talking to? Who is this Sweetheart??

"Okay bye, i lovee you", my eyes snapped to him listening to the words. Love? Did he patch up with Kiara? Or he is in a relationship with someone else??

I don't know for what reasons, tears brimmed my eyes.

Why Meera? He is just another costar. Remember?
