Unspoken Desire (Completed)

Sid And Naaz

Sana was late again. Mumbai traffic is getting worse day by day. She had been warned before. Her manager is definitely going to bash her today. She paid the auto as soon as it stopped and ran inside the studio. The set was ready. All her colleagues were busy. As soon as she entered, her manager Nidhi gave her a stare. She went to her and tried to explain.
Nidhi: Abhi time nhi hai. Tumse is baare me mai baad me baat karungi. Yeh sab dresses uthao aur dono ke vanity me rakh ke aao.
Sana took the hangers and walked to the vanity. She saw Rashmi Desai get down from her audi and walked to the vanity. She went inside. As she reached with the clothes Rashmi's assistant stopped Sana.
Assistant: Kya hai??
Sana: Yeh dresses rakhne hai.
Assistant: Rakh do. Par zyaada shor mat karo. Ma'am disturbed hai.
Sana: Ok
Sana went inside and hung the dresses in the stand. Rashmi Desai was on the call. She was yelling at someone.
RD: Maine bola tha na ke vo article daalo. Fir kyu nhi print hua?? Aapko pata nhi vo kaisa hai. You people are useless.
Sana quietly left the vanity. She walked to the other vanity. A plate hung on the door named " Sidharth Shukla". Her heart skipped a beat. She had loved him since she was in college. She had dreamt of working with him. He was her prince charming. Sana opened the door and stepped inside. She had such big dreams but was not lucky enough. The controversy in punjab had made her flee. And was now in Mumbai. She became Sana from Shehnaaz Kaur Gill and was hiding from the world and herself. Her dad was furious and her mom crying when she left. But Sana had to. She wanted to run away from the negativity and hatred surrounding her. Sana had thought she will come and try her luck in Mumbai. But was unlucky here too and ended up being a crew member in the production house.
Sana stayed as a paying guest with an old couple in Andheri. They both were very loving and considered her as their daughter. They had a son Shekhar who stayed in US. He had come to visit his parents last month and had shown intrest in her. Shekhar had asked her to marry him and she had asked time to think. How can she marry him when she loved someone else. But Sana knew she was wishing for the moon. Lost in thoughts she heard the door bang loudly. The clothes in her hand fell. As she bend to pick it up she saw him enter. He was trembling with anger. He dialled a number.
Sid: Arun koi ander nhi aayega. Am I clear Arun??
He threw the mobile on the sofa.
Sid: How dare she?? How can she do this??
Saying that he banged his hand on the glass table near by. The glass broke with a crackling sound. Sana stood there numb. She didn't know what to do. If he sees her he may get upset. She was even afraid to move. But why was he upset?? Who has hurt him?? She thought she will slowly sneak out. He may not notice her. As she moved forward she saw him sitting with his head in his hands. His right hand was bleeding and there was glass everywhere. She stopped, not knowing what to do. She couldn't leave him like this. Not in so much of pain. She moved forward .
Sana: Sir.... Aap ke hath se blood aa raha hai.
Sid looked at her blankly. After a few seconds he came to his senses.
Sid: Kon ho tum?? Aur jab maine kaha tha koi ander nhi aayega to tum yaha kya kar rahi ho? Baat samaj nhi aati kya tum logo ko??
Sana: Sir ...par aap ka hath.....
Sid: I said get out.
Sana went to the cupboard near the mirror and removed the first aid box.
Sid: Are you deaf?? Don't you understand?? I told you to get the hell out of here.
Sana: No. I'm not going. Jab tak mai aapki hath ko patti na kar lu mai nhi jaaungi. I'm sorry sir, bahot khun nikal raha hai.
He looked at her and then to his own astonishment closed his eyes resting his head on the sofa cushion. She sat on the floor and started cleaning his hand. They was a deep cut. His hands were so big with long fingers. They were cold now. She had never thought she will ever be able to touch him. Her heart cried for him. He looked so much in pain. As she was applying antiseptic to his cut his mobile started ringing. She looked at it and then at him. His eyes were still closed. The name flashing on the screen was Maa. It was ringing continuously. When she finished attending his hand. She stood up. His mobile was still ringing.
Sana: Sir aapki Maa ka call hai.
Sid: Thek hai.
Sana: Sir please utha lo na. Vo kab se call kar rahe hai.
Sid: I don't want to talk to anyone right now.
It started ringing again. Sana took the mobile and picked up the call.
Sid: What the....
Sana: Hello Ma'am..... jee unka shot chal raha hai.....Ha ma'am mai call karne bol dungi...... jee mera naam Sana hai.....ok ma'am.
Sid: what did you just do?? Tumne mera....
Sana: Aapki Maa bahot pareshaan lag rahi the. Aap unko call kar le.
Sid: Tumko pata hai mai tumko iske leye job se nikalva sakta hu??
Sana: Pata hai sir and sorry sir. Par muje jo sahi laga vo maine kiya. But still I'm sorry.
Saying that she moved towards the door to leave.
Sid: Suno, mere assistant se kaho muje ek coffee bheje.
Sana: Ok sir.
As she left, Sid was amazed. This girl was actually able to calm him down. He picked his mobile and dialled his mom's number.
Sid: Maa??
Maa: Tu thek hai na beta?? Morning me itne gusse me nikla ke mai pareshaan ho gayi.
Sid: I'm fine Maa. Sab thek ho jaayega.
Maa: Tu thek ho to mai thek, mere bacche. Isleye maine vo ladki Sana ko bola ke Siddharth ko muje shot khatam hote he call karne bolo.
Sid: Ha Maa bataya usne muje. Mai ab thek hu. Aap se baad me baat karta hu.
Maa: Ok beta.
Sid smiled and called his assistant to inform him that he is ready for the shot. After an hour Sid went on the set . He was wearing a navy blue suit. It was some office scene. He was sitting on a big chair, a large table with files and stationery was there in front of him. He is conversing with someone on the phone. He gave his shot in few takes. The director was satisfied. Sid was watching the scene with the director as he wanted to make sure it was the best. He saw the girl. She was with Nidhi. It seems nidhi was scolding her over something. Their eyes met across the room and her face turned pink. Sid was staring at her and she was not able to concentrate on what Nidhi was saying. It upsets Nidhi.
Nidhi: Sana tum sun bhi rahi ho mai kya bol rahi hu. Idhar udhar kya dekh rahi ho?? Kal se agar tum late hue to tumhari salary cut karungi mai.
Sana: Nahi ma'am pakka mai jaldi aaungi.
Nidhi walked from there. Sid was still staring at her. She hid herself behind a pillar. And then came Rashmi Desai on set and Sid's mood changed. How was he going to tolerate this women. He thought. She was the one who was telling all the lies. She was one who was spreading rumours about him and defaming him. How can they work together, when there was so much bitterness between them. But he had to. Because he was the man of his words and never let people down.
