The absurd silence that circulated the entire set, after the one maddening roar, clearly stated the upcoming earthquake on the sets of The Naivety of Hearts. All eyes were glued to the one man who stood there with a look which was neither revealing his anger nor his thoughts that were running through his mind. His eyes were fixated on his wife who was gazing at him with concern etched on her face.

She thought that he will scream or lash; but to make everyone's eyes roll like a soccer ball, the great Aayush Khandelwal sat on the floor with crossed legs and then if the shock wasn't enough, he started to cry. Like really cry!!

"Aayush!!" Raisha ran immediately, pushing away Rohan who literally stumbled on his steps, ready to fall on the ground. Jay rubbed his eyes several time, while the others followed his league, but the scene was still the same. The Romance King bawling his eyes out while his lady love now, sat beside him keeping a hand on his shoulder.

"Aayush, what happened?" Raisha turned his face, to her direction. Her heart was hammering against her chest, at several odd ideas travelled inside her head about her love being in pain.

Tears brimmed her eyes in no time, as she saw him rubbing his eyes, uncontrollably; like he was in any sort of discomfort.

From the corner of his eyes, Aayush saw Raisha having tears, and immediately, he changed his demeanor to that of funny body language; pointing towards Jay.

"Your brother happened. See what all is he making me speak!" He whined like a baby, making Raisha sigh in relief whilst the others on the sets were in mood to simply sit on the floor and watch the drama; ofcourse with cold coffee and some butter popcorns.

After all, not every day one witnesses AA1 with those Hilarious expression. 

"Huh!" Raisha gaped at him, as if she was encountering an idiot ran away from a mental asylum. Was he seriously her husband? The guy she fell in love with eighteen years back. Could he be anymore dramatic than this?

"You were rubbing your eyes like that because of the script?" Her high pitched query sure did manage to cause a little fear in Aayush because he knew, he was going to face her wrath for scaring her.

He nodded with a sheepish smile, and it hit the nerve of Raisha.

"You stupid idiot of a man!" She hit him on his bicep, but the strong man remained unaffected while Raisha felt her fist aching, but glaring at him, she continued her assault on him. And finally seeing her fist turn red, he held her wrist making her give him an angry look.

"It won't hurt me you know, because your cotton ball like hands are still too soft to hurt me". He boasted giving her palms a kiss, while she pried his hand away standing up furiously.

Aayush followed her league; whilst Jay was trying to suppress himself from not giggling like a teenager, but he sure did giggleed.

"You don't talk to me for the entire week". Raisha ordered him with a Stern look making him give out an ear piercing shriek.

"Whatttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt?"

Everyone on the set found their index fingers inside their ears, including our naive heroine who was pissed with her on and off screen lover and husband to no bounds.

"How can do this to me? Your Aayush?" He pulled out her fingers from her ears, to make her hear his yelling again, whilst she smirked now. Typical Mrs. Aayush Khandelwal style.

"You sure can scare the crap out of me, but I can't even stop talking to you. Do you take me as a gullible little girl my dear love?"

She retorted matching the same pace of rawness that her beloved hubby has all the time, when he makes his business deals but how did he even forgot that, she wasn't just any girl, she was the role model of so many women in the world and apart from that she was the most leading lady of the cosmetic manufacturing world. She sure has her ways up her sleeves 24*7.
