Reethu's POV:
The whirlwind pace of the past month felt like Jasprit Bumrah's lightning-fast bowling—before I knew it, my cherished free time with my soon-to-be fiancé was over, and I found myself in America, embarking on the filming of our movie.
As I bent down to retrieve the fallen papers, the glint of my necklace caught the eye of my set mate. She offered a warm smile, her curiosity piqued by the delicate letter pendant adorning the chain.
"That's a lovely necklace," she remarked, her gaze lingering on the pendant. "Is that a letter hanging from it?" she inquired, her interest evident.
I nodded with a smile, gently fingering the pendant. "Yes, it's my boyfriend's initial," I explained, a fond expression crossing my features as I glanced at the pendant.
"Wow, he's making you feel like Call It What You Want, huh? My ex had me feeling like the 10-minute version of All Too Well," Jenny quipped, eliciting a laugh from our group.
"I'm more in tune with Mess It Up by Gracie," Carlos chimed in, prompting nods of agreement from the rest of us.
"Seems like we all have our anthems," I remarked with a smile, a sense of camaraderie settling over our conversation.
Shubman's POV:
"Good work, Shubman. That's a wrap for today, guys," our coach announced, signaling the end of our training session.
"Here, have some water," Ishan offered, handing me a bottle as I gratefully accepted it.
"Pool time, anyone?" Hardik suggested a mischievous twinkle in his eye.
With nods of agreement, we headed to our rooms to change before reconvening at the terrace pool.
"Cannonball!" Ishan exclaimed gleefully, launching himself into the pool with abandon, his infectious energy drawing laughter from the rest of us.
Following suit, I dove into the water, relishing the refreshing sensation as I resurfaced.
"New necklace, Shubman?" Virat bhai observed his keen eye-catching sight of the pendant around my neck.
I glanced down, a smile tugging at my lips as I traced the pendant with my fingers. "Oh, yes. It's Reethu's initial," I explained, the mere thought of her bringing warmth to my heart.
"Looks like someone's smitten," KL Rahul teased, earning a playful splash from me in response.
As we indulged in some lighthearted banter, I couldn't help but revel in the camaraderie of my teammates and the shared joy of our time together.
Ishan's POV:
Amidst the laughter and splashing, Shubman's phone rang, and the familiar melody of his ringtone filled the air.
