Manisha's POV
She sat in her vanity completely dazed out while getting her makeup done. Her costume trial was over and she was getting her makeup done for the look test.
Of course with him.
Whatever is said and done, it was her past. She is here today and she has to given her best. She has to co-operate with him on set. That was the last thing that she wanted. As much as she hated him, she still loves her work. And both the feelings will make it aliving hell for her on set. She closed her eyes again and take a deep breath.
Her reverie was broken by the knock at the door.
"ma'am are you ready?....you are called on floor..." aspot boy informed her.
"I will come in a minute..." she gulped her saliva and walked out of the vanity.
She reached the floor after a long walk and saw him standing on his mark already. The same hairstyle that he had in Bigg Boss and after that..the famous messy look. Her Mr Pantole. She quickly reminded herself that the man standing in front of her was anything but the love of her life..her Pantole and walked ahead.
He glanced at her quickly and then looked at the director waiting for instruction.
"We will get some photographs clicked just to see how it fairs onscreen... we already know how it will look...but still.." he said proudly.
"The brief is just two best friends are madly in love with each other..but couldn't express it...do I need to say anything else?" he chuckled.
Right..! In love, my left foot. What nonsense..she thought in her mind and walked towards him and waited for him to make an advance. He always did that while clicking professionally. He always took the charge. He loves to.
'Should I touch her?' he thought in his mind. Forget it. During the shoot you both will have to touch and talk. And anyway it is the characters. Not you two in real.
But wait a minute I can't touch her like that. Not now knowing I cannot do that without her permission. She's not mine anymore what if she thought I'm taking advantage of the situation.
She knew that he wouldn't be touching her. So she took a step ahead and kept her hand on the crook of his neck and looked at the camera with a huge smile.
Abhishek gulped at her touch. It has been years now. The touch that soothed him every time. The touch that felt like peace. He kept his hand on her waist as flex and stared at her face.
"Brilliant...." the DOP said happily as he clicked numerous shots like that as their first pose. He left her waist slowly as the DOP's voice brought him back to reality.
'Wow.. now he has so much problem to touch me.! Why not after all he's not yours manisha.. now he's someone else's love..why did you do that.! Stupid..' mani said it to herself.
"Umm...can you pick her up abhishek?" the director instructed him.
"And manisha throw your head back and laugh and abhishek you have to just admire her in awe.. like you are happy to see her happy.. like she's your happiness" he said
'That is not acting.' He thought. She is my happiness.. I always admire her.
He picked her up and twirled her around and she laughed happily as instructed. He didn't have to pretend though, his face automatically curved into a soft smile seeing her laugh.
The Picture✨
After they done with look test and went to their vanities.
He was about to enter his vanity when he saw her. Again.
"Hey little angel...." He knelt down in front of the girl he had met this morning. She was in her school uniform.
"Mr. Coco..." she quickly hugged him and buried her face into his neck and started crying.
"Kya ho gaya baby..ap ro kyu rahe ho..kya hua hai.?" his voice changed from happiness to concern.
"Mujhe uncle nahi mil rahe....he asked me to stand here and he will come back in sometime but he is not coming back...." She said while crying loudly.
"What the hell..." he stopped realising that he had a baby in his arms and she can hear him. His blood was boiling. How can that man or whatever be so irresponsible. He had kept her waiting alone in broad daylight under the scorching sun. In the middle of film city, like how insensitive a person can be.
"Shhh baby don't cry... I'm here with you.... We will find your uncle okay...." he kissed her hair and hugged her tighter. He broke the hug and wiped her tears and took out the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her face.
"Jassu find out from the CCTV where this man had gone leaving her alone and I want her in front of me....and keep someone here in case he decides to come back in search of the kid so that he knows she is with me inside....we cannot keep the kid stand here in the sun....she will fall ill...." he said kissing her forehead and jassu nodded. He went inside the vanity and mader sit on the bed.
"Lil one..." he frowned as a thought struck him suddenly. "why did your uncle bring you here?"
"Uncle said mumma works here.. uncle said I have to meet urgently because I had fallen down in school and my class teacher had told uncle to take me to her" she said.
"Whatttt? Did you get hurt?" he asked immediately. She nodded a little and pointed at her elbow where he could see some scratches and black mark.
"Omg..shit..." he got up quickly and cursed himself for not noticing it before and his blood boiled more. How could her uncle have left an injured kid alone standing in the middle of thr sun.
'I'll not leave that man easily' he said to himself.
Someone was looking at them from far. That man was like 'ab toh main gaya'. His phone rang and he picked up
"Hello vish ..plan Kam kiya?" Mishti asked
"Ha..mil gaye baap beti..but Abhishek bohot gusse me hai..maar hi dalega main haat aya toh..kaha fasa diya yaar tum sabne.." Vishal complained.
