As soon as Ekta got to know about the whole situation she took a meeting with the PR team and came on the conclusion that it was best to push the realise date further. The channel however obviously had issues with it but they finally negotiated and the deal was finalised. However The channel had high expectations and now the pressure was even more after a much needed discussion between Vikas and Ekta they decided that Parth and Erica should give more interviews so that the effect would diffuse a bit, however earlier they weren't much about the plan as they thought that the hate would be manageable, but seeing the damage that was done it was better to let the audience grow used to them; bit by bit.
It was 7 in the evening and her stomach was grumbling she had locked herself up in her vanity; saying that her headache had worsened and she wanted to take a nap. No one really fuzzed about it as her individual scenes were taken in the morning itself; all that was left was Parth her and Sanjay Sir's scenes. And Parth was complaining about headache too so the director allowed the duo to rest while sanjay Sir finished his portion of work left, and then a final shot and off they go. But obliviously both of them had no clue that the other was lying as they were busy in there own dilemmas.
Erica finally rose from her bed and started walking towards the door. As she felt that she would literary starve to death. So food did what she couldn't. She finally mustered up the courage to go out of her little den and face reality. She had messed it up; indeed she had.
But things didn't go as planned she was almost immediately in front of the person she so wanted to avoid. Off course talking to him was on her list; but after Food.
Meanwhile Parth wasn't exactly pleased to meet as he usually was.
She sensed his discomfort and reluctance and knew exactly why but she didn't knew what she was supposed to do next. So they just stood there in the middle of the corridor having a deep but awkward eye-lock.
Parth wanted to walk away but he couldn't.
And she wanted to talk but couldn't.
So they stood there lost in each other surrounded by silence.
When suddenly a spot boy came and broke their trance.
Mam woh director sir said to inform you both that aap dono ki shift aaj khatam ho gyi hai. Scene kal shoot kar lenge and also that you both are expected in ekta mam's office in an hour! Bhot urgent meeting hai. He informed.
Both of them turned on their heels announcing 'I will be back in a sec' in unison.
"Sir aise hi chle jayie aap dono. Mam was sounding very serious and vikas sir ne special instruction diye ki aap dono ke jaate hi mai inform karun" the spot boy again interrupted.
They both glaced and each other and went back in. They came out in a minute or so Parth trying to lock his door but his hands already had a phone, back pack, charger and keys he was struggling when erica stopped. She was trying to lock her door. She walked towards him snatched his key to the room. And said "I will lock it go!" In the most rude and snobbish tone. That is how she was whenever she experienced something new or a different emotion she starts acting strange. It takes her a lot of time to adjust and get comfortable and familiar with it.
He went to the parking lot. Sat in the car and waited for her to come out. She soon did. She was going to sit in the backseat when he said "Front!"
She rolled her eyes a bit. They both weren't like that! Why were they acting like brats they wondered! But none had an answer.
She sat beside him. While he sat there doing absolutely nothing as if he was waiting for her to do something. He anxious tapped his foot and his fingers on the steering wheel. While she was busy In her phone. On not sensing the car moving. She finally looked up only to find him glaring at her. 'What' she asked raising her eye brows. He said nothing he just unbuckled his seat belt bended towards her and strapped her in. Nice and secure. After seat belting her. He came back and did his seat belt and without a word started the car and drove off.
While Erica sat there baffled. Angry maybe. She sat there with a shocked expression for a while and then picked her phone up. And went back to her work. Completely ignoring his mere presence. Which obviously did irk him a bit but he chose to stay mum.
He did not understand her at all! He was the one who is supposed to be upset. She was snooping on him when he is her co-star! How dare she! She does not have the courtesy to confront him nor the decency to ask him. She just reads articles that have nothing but rubbish in them and then decides to judge him on that.
His blood boiled at the woman's audacity, over and above what she had done she had the bloody guts to speak to him like he is a nobody. Never! absolutely never has he been treated like this. He rolls his eyes at his thoughts and pulls the car outside the office.
The duo step out of the car as Parth hands his car keys to the valet. They both were about to enter the office when they are swarmed by the paparazzi...
