The Naivety Of A Heart (Original Unedited Version)

Chapter 12- Interwining Presence

It is believed that everyone's stories are written up in the heaven by that all rounder director, who is the real creator of our lives. He plans unique scripts for each one of us inside his heavenly doors, while we are the actors who are performing the roles given to us. Each one of us have got a creative part to play to make the film of this life as interesting as bollywood but the real irony lies when two people who have different stories, interwines their roles, their fate, their destinies. Inshort, their presence around the other makes it impossible for them to breathe, while their mind and heart constantly calls for them. It is not only for saying that, "When someone means something to you, then their presence around you is a must, because it helps you to stay sane and calms the calamity that keeps on going inside your soul". It is for feeling and experiencing that entwined bond with that one person, whom you trust more than your own living being.

It was the day of Aayush's show, and since the morning he along with his troop had been doing the final technical rehearsals so as not to cause any hindrance during the live performance. Shipra stayed with Raisha in the beach house, while Sarthak accompanied them since he wasn't performing this time with the group but he only trained them for some major steps as suggested by Aayush. As for Vikram, he had been budging Aayush to take him back by trying to act as sweet as he could, but Aayush knew better than anyone else of his hidden agendas.

It was 5 in the evening already, when Shipra entered Raisha's room holding her designer dress while Raisha was standing in the balcony, enjoying the cool breeze, with a smile lingering on her lips, as last night's memories still played infront of her eyes.

"If I didn't knew better than I would have definitely thought that someone confessed their love to you, to make you smile for no reason!" Shipra commented breaking the chain of Raisha's thoughts as she blushed looking downwards. Shipra burst out laughing while Raisha looked away feeling embarrassed.

"Seriously, Raisha tell me did he say something cheesy to you, that you are smiling this much since morning or is it because the not so happening Kapoor Siblings are not here," Shipra reasoned and Raisha's eyes widened at the thought of being teased if she revealed that Aayush took her out secretly.

"Ma'am, nothing of that sort happened. Can't I smile?" Raisha replied taking her dress from her hand to iron it so that she could get dressed as she was suppose to leave at 6 with Sarthak, who was currently barking orders at the phone, to the event manager to provide proper security to Aayush.

"Well, whatever it is, I am glad you are smiling, but trust me you should smile only since those irritations are not here. Mercy on our poor ears and eyes". Shipra added with a smirk making Raisha chuckle lowly and then both the girls got engrossed in their girly stuff, as Raisha helped Shipra to get ready.

Raisha started applying the makeup on Shipra as she sat infront of the mirror, while Shipra was amazed by the level of her talents. She wondered what all the girl infront of her knew, she might have not been educated but she seemed to be more like a professional in everything. Raisha stopped in mid way confused as she felt Shipra watching her face keenly.

"Ma'am what happened?"

"Nothing, just thinking that how many people are like you in this world or is there anyone even like you?" She asked with a smile on her face and Raisha knelt down infront of her, and applying the nail print on her nails, she replied with the utmost sincere and honest tone, "I am like this because my parents were like this. They always said that don't do anything to show anyone, instead learn them to show yourself that you are no different from the rest of the world".

"Your words are always so heart touching. I need to write them down in a diary, for future's sake." Shipra complimented standing up on her feet as she admired herself in the mirror. She sure was a cosmetologist but she hated doing bucket loads of make up like other girls, but today the case was absolutely different as she was suppose to visit the venue like a star's sister not just Shipra.
