AvNeil to AdiZa

Scars?

Will she be fine? What if they argued yet again due to me? How will clear this mess?

Questions like this floated up in his mind which absolutely had no answers. He tossed left and right on his bed being disturbed by his thoughts. In any way, he had to wait for the next day to check upon her. He slept after a long time.

Next day started off as usual. The day was tightly packed and everyone went off to dress up for the scenes wasting no time. The team didn't even meet up for a normal "good morning" greeting. The shot was set up and Aditi and Zain were to shoot for a kitchen scene where Avni was to do a war with cooking in the kitchen. Going by the script, Zain grabbed Aditi's wrists to hold tightly engrossed in an eye lock. Avni's hands are burned and she must flinch in pain according to the script. The scene was intense and Aditi did a brilliant job. After "CUT" was called Aditi rushed to her room clutching her wrists tightly. He also saw tears in her eyes which were not caused by the scene or glycerine.  Everybody looked at each other questioningly and Zain signaled Nalini to go and check on her.  Just before she turned to go, they heard one of their CVs shouting at Aditi from the room. Zain couldn't resist himself and he also went with Nalini, Saay and Gautam to see what was happening.

In the room, Aditi stood like a school child in front of CV2 with eyes squeezed shut in pain where CV2 was nursing a wound on her wrist.

CV2: Aditi! This is a bloody show and you work in it. You have every right to say if anything is bothering you. You already had a wound on your wrist and continued with this scene. What the hell do you think of yourself? Now have look at your hand. Its paining na idiot!

Hearing this, everybody shot angry looks to Aditi while Saay rushed to her aid in worry. She caressed and dressed up her wound which was in deep red and blue tinge shade indicating dead cells at that place. 

Saay: Ye kaisi chot hai Adu?

Aditi mumbled and answered : Wo kal raat apartment ke gate se takraya tha... wahi hai...

Zain: Aise?

Aditi: Haa...

Zain noticed Aditi not meeting his eyes while talking. Somewhere he felt, she was lying. He felt its not the right time to ask and kept mum. Another AvNeil scene of a romantic dance was scheduled to be shot soon once Aditi felt better. She came after 30 minutes to enact the scene which AdiZa had discussed a day before to create magic on the screen as usual. Aditi was wearing a pale purple plain Saree along with black off shoulder blouse. Her sarees were draped in a different style exposing her waistline adding more glamour to her desi look. 

Director: ACTION!

Zain pulled Aditi close and encircled his arms around her waist. He squeezed her bubbly waist as demanded by the scene. Aditi's one hand which rested on his chest suddenly got shifted and  clutched tightly onto his collars. Zain could see Aditi trying hard not to spill tears and constantly maintaining an irritated look as per the scene. He twirled Aditi twice before grabbing her back into his masculine arms. He engulfed her from behind and nuzzled her neck unknowingly sending shivers down her spine. Zain slowly caressed his hands over her waist as if to soothe her pain out which went unnoticed by the crew. Aditi involuntarily closed her eyes feeling contented.    

Director: CUT! That was brilliant guyz! Felt so original! Now take a break both of you. I will carry on with Neela and Ali's scene. 

Aditi kept her gaze down and her heart throbbed with irregular beats to get out of Zain's back hug and move away. But she stood still leaned to Zain and his support. Since the director along with the crew got busy with the next shot being set up in another room, none of them noticed anything happening there. Aditi's heart bounced and pounded in tension as she could sense Zain's questioning eyes over her. She was falling weak and she couldn't let that happen.
