Mumbai

"good morning ma'am.... this way please..." a staff member from the production office showed her the way to the meeting room.

"Actually sir is already here, you go and sit.. director sir will join you guys in some time...." he said with a wide and polite smile.

Manisha ko koi idea nahi hai ke yeh 'sir' koun hai.! So she gave a small now and walked towards the room, turned the knob to open the door and heard a man's voice.

"she must be here anytime now...".

Manisha turned the knob and opened the door.

"here she is..." the man looked at mani with a wide smile.

Manisha gave a small smile and shifted her gaze to the man who had his back facing her until he kept the script on the table and turned towards her.

"hello miss..." his voice trailed of seeing her face.

"Sir please have a seat.... i'll call the creative and the production team...." and with that both the staff moved out of the room leaving them alone.

He quickly turned and took the script and pretended to read it again. And she sits on the chair in front of him and starts to read the script.

They only knew what they were going through right now. To say that a storm raged inside them would be an understatement. They could feel their eyes turn wet and both struggled to breath. The pain that they felt was borderline physical. They were not ready to see each other anytime soon, neither did they expect eachother to be here. And slowly realisation hit them hard.

"They are co-stars.!!"

At the same time manisha also thinks about the whole situation..Her Team knew this.. Vishal Mishti.. they know about this..and they did this to her.! Why wouldn't they tell her? She had come back to India after so many years and she hired Vishal as her manager because she trusted him but what he did..! She licked her dry lips and let out a heavy breath.

Soon the team come and they discuss about the project.

Director- So we'll start the shoot after raksha bandhan as manisha requested..but you guys have to finish the trails asap..

Mani- No problem sir..as discussed I'll do it by tomorrow only..

Abhi- Sir I told you I have important work tomorrow.. I want to reschedule it..

Director- Abhi maine jasus se baat karlo hai..you don't need to worry about it..

The meeting went well and the director told them about the screen test which is scheduled tomorrow.

On the way back home ~

Abhishek POV

As soon as I saw her I felt my lips and throat go dry. She was still the same. The same small face wearing faded jeans and T-shirt with her hair kept open, just the way I liked. If anybody would concentrate hard they would find dark circles under her eyes which she tried to hide by concealer. I clenched my fists as I struggled to find my voice as well as feet. My head felt light and the noises around me had ceased to exist. The dream which I never dared to see again was standing so close to me..my love..or would I say the person who hates me the most.!?

Manisha POV

As soon as I came in and closed the door, I felt a blood drain from my body. I saw his face and concentrated on his features. He had turned to be leaner. His hair properly combed like a professional not that messy look I always preferred. Not the messy font hair look. Although he looked the same but still he didn't look the same. He looked like a storm he moved past his soul sucking all the life out of him. He looked helpless, alone and vulnerable. But the main question is why.? I left him so that he can live his life happier not like this..usse toh us naagin ke sath khush rehna chahiye..jaise woh dikhate hai on screen..but ajj samne se aisa kyun laga mujhe ke woh khush nahi hai..what happened to him..is everything okay with him...or am I thinking too much.!?

**Okay guys I know small part ho gaya..but as I said my exams are going on so couldn't help..! But hope you guys like this one..and I'm trying my best to give updates regularly.
