"Arre abhi bhi kyun pareshan ho itna tum?" His mom asked as they drove towards his set.. She saw him trying to call Sana constantly.. "Busy hogi.. thoda time to de usko phone dekhne ka.. Tu bhi na Sidharth.. itna impatient ho na achhi baat nahi hai beta.."
"Impatient?? Mein?? Kal raat se phone nahi utha rahi hai wo.. mera bas chale to mein abhi waha jake usko do chamat lagake aau.. "
"Sidharth!! Aise baat nahi karte... aur abhi kyu baat nahi kar rahi wo? Kya kiya tune fir se??"
"Meine?? Waah sahi hai? Why do you think I did something? "
"Kyunki warna wo khud hi abhi tak tuzse baat kar leti.. "
He opened his mouth to retort something but couldn't argue on that.. She would have spoken to him, he knows..
"Batane ka mauka de tab na... phone nahi uthayegi to kaise bataunga??"
"3 din se tuze Sana ko ye baat batae ka mauka nahi mil raha? "
He just pursed his lips and stared at the road ahead..
"Aur abhi agar use pata hi nahi hai mein ja rahi hun set pe fir wo gussa kyu hui? Wo to maan gayi thi na Shruti wale shoot ke liey waise bhi.. kuchh to kiya hoga tumne.. You said something to her again? "
His mom has been integral part of their relationship now.. She knows her son all too well.. So she had become the link between these two whenever they fought with each other on things like this..
"Batao Sidharth?"
He narrated the whole incidents from the day he had asked his mom to accompany her.. How he was planning to tell Sana, that he is going to take mom on the sets so that Sana will feel better knowing he is not alone on sets with Shruti, and also Shruti will not try talking to him as well in his Mom's presence.. He knew it was the silliest thing to do to take mom on the sets, but he would do that also if it means Sana feels better of the situation especially when she is this far away... but things spiraled down from that day and between Gurnaam's involvement, and then their recordings and all the chaos, he forgot to tell her about this.. And then he did a blunder by making that post on Insta...
"I know I am wrong.. chal maan liya ye post meine shayad galat daal di.. but use itna samajh nahi aata ke mein kabhi sapne mein bhi aise post nahi karunga kisi aur ke baare mein?? Ini gadhi to hai nahi wo.."
"Tumhe pata hai Sidharth she is very possessive about you.. and who are you kidding.. tum bhi waise hi ho.. tumhe to ye baat balki bina kisike samjhaye samjh aa jani chahiye.. Imagine agar wo aise kuchh post kar de uske purane dost ke saath? Wo to bechari kitna khayal rakhti hai kya post karna hai.. Wo waise bhale hi tere saath koi bhi majak masti karti hai, but ye baat tuze bhi pata hai ke wo kisi aur ladke ke baare mein tere saamne baat bhi nahi karti taaki tuze hurt na ho.. manta hai ke nahi ye baat?"
He knows his mom is on point like every other time.. Though she doesn't come between these to that often, but she is very observant..
"Point wo hai hi nahi.. Meine kab bola I don't trust her?" he said changing the topic knowing
" I agree usko bura laga hoga.. meine chidane ke liye hi dala tha post.. but gussa hai to hamesha jaise aake lad leti.. ye phone nahi uthane ka kya matlab hai?? Meine last week hi usase promise liya tha ki kuchh bhi ho social media pe she should first call and check with me.. "
He was getting angry again thinking she called his manager instead of him..
His mom just shook her head adding
"One of these days you are going to hurt each other beyond repair Sidharth... and then probably regret it for the rest of the life... be careful.."
He just sighed knowingly .. He knows they both have given that power to each other to hurt the other person the most.. He knows if anything can break them, it is going to be one of them only and no other third factor..
He wondered if the overreaction is the result of the immense confidence they have on each other that no matter what, the other person won't leave them.. That confidence is what probably gives them the audacity to overreact.. how ever twisted it might sound it was true..
As soon as they reached the sets, he asked his manager to take a nice pic of him and his mom making sure the set behind is very well visible.. and posted that pic immediately..
"Just like good ol'days!! Mypretty lady and lucky charm is with me today on my sets after a long longtime..She used to come to myschool in lunch time with my box to make sure I have eaten properly and that Iam not in any trouble.. She is here today again to make sure I am in notgetting myself in any trouble..
on this set specially.. 😉"He added the winking smiley at the end making sure Sana would get the hidden meaning behind the trouble he is talking about..
He smiled looking at the post.. He kept his phone constantly in his eyesight knowing it will just be few moments before Sana sees the post.. and as soon as she sees the post she will call him immediately..
His anticipation turned into anger and then into worry as the moments turned into minutes and then into hours and no call came... His mom watched from corner as she saw him getting restless throughout the day..
They finally left the set around 7 PM, and she had neither called nor messaged anything yet.. He couldn't understand if he were more worried about her or angry at her.. it was very unlike Sana to not be active on social media.. and she would have definitely seen the pic by now if she were online.. even if she did not go to his page explicitly, she would have seen the pic somewhere else as it had gone viral in no time like any other things they post.. and if she had not seen it yet, it only means she never logged into social media and that worried him.. He decided to call her, but then decided against it.. he did not know what he would do if she does not pick up.. he was not ready to face that fear yet.. he dropped a message instead..
'Bahot ho gaya Sana..! call kar abhi ke abhi! ' He fidgeted with his phone tapping his leg non-stop feeling restless...
He opened his Insta checking if she had seen the post yet, but instead he was bombarded with her pics with Shehbaaz and Gurnam... Some fan had seen her having dinner just a few minutes ago and clicked their pics and few videos from afar.. Though they were taken from quite a distance, he could clearly see she was not well.. Her smile was missing and in most photos she was looking down at her food and did not look involved in the conversations.. And her fans did not fail to notice that either and his notifications were flooded with tags asking and pointing out why she is sad..
He grabbed his hair in frustration.. He felt helpless and it reminded him of his time in secret room task in BB where he could see her suffer and couldn't do anything but to watch from afar.. At the same time he was fuming with anger at her.. she has brought it up on herself..
"why is she doing this.. if she would just call or pick up my call once, everything will be fine.. but no! she has to always do the unexpected and overreact.. Let her suffer if she wants to do that.. I am done begging her to call me back.. "
'never mind Shehnaaz.. do not call me back.. ' he sent her the message in anger and switched off his phone..
"Jaraa si misunderstanding hai Sidharth.. tu bhi overreact mat kar abhi .. ruk ja let me call her .. meri baat maanegi wo.. " His Mom said looking at his resigned face..
"No mom.. koi jaroorat nai hai .. bahot ho gaya uska abhi.. har baar nahi chalega.. aap bich mein mat aao.."
She ignored him, she pulled out her phone from her bag..
He snatched the phone from her hands and kept clutched in his hands, and as soon as he clutched it, the phone started vibrating in his hands..
He looked at the name and then at his Mom.. Shehnaaz's name was flashing on the screen...
'Shehnaaz calling ....'
