The Broken Doctor

13 - Movie Afternoon

Deepu's POV:

After having biryani we were in his living-room talking some random stuff. Vijay insisted on watching a movie. We moved to his recreation room.

He named it as 'movie afternoon' ( bcz we r watching movie in afternoon instead of movie nyt)

He asked me about my favourite actor while searching for a movie.

" I am a big fan of Surya (a fabulous actor in Tamil film industry. His films also get released in Telugu ) " I said with dreamy eyes & I can see Vijay's face dropped. May be he was expecting his name. I like Vijay's acting but from my childhood I adore surya movies.

He started playing one of my favourite surya movie i.e; Surya s/o krishnan.

Once movie started all my past memories appeared infront of my eyes making my eyes wet. I remembered how me & kanna used to watch this movie in our movie nyts cuddling with eachother. I used to cry everytime I watch this movie getting emotional. Kanna used to tease me about my crying all the time.

Slowly memories of 'him leaving me' got infront of me & I can't control anymore & started weeping ignoring Vijay's presence beside me.

Seeing me crying vijay asked me holding my hand with a concern in his eyes.

"This movie is so emotional & brings tears in my eyes everytime I watch it "
I said to vijay composing myself making him convince with my reasoning.

To cheer me up he brought my favourite Fruit custard😋😋. I immediately snatched the bowl & started munching on it ignoring him.

He laughed out loud seeing my childishness.

I glared at him & continued eating. I wonder how he is capable of lifting up my mood in a minute!!

Vijay's POV:

She said that she cried bcz of movie. But deep down in my heart I know that it's not the sole reason. It might be related to that person ,whom she mentioned her mom in phone ( nyt in the hospital her phone convo with her mom is listened by vijay).

I know she is not ready to share it with me. So to change her mood I brought her favourite dessert..

Yess..I was succeeded in litting up her mood. Later we talked about our hobbies, tastes ,interests etc..

I even shared her my past silly love stories which happened in my teenage.After a little chatter she left bidding Bye.

I felt really contended spending time with her. Only thing that bothered me was her sadness...

Days passed by , inspite of our busy schedules we used talk every alternate day & we became close. For now only close frnds, hopefully more than that in the future.

It's the day before my movie premiere. I wanted her to be there beside me on that day. I already sent her invitation but there is no response from her. So I called her & but call ended without a response.

After an hour she herself called me

" Hi Vijay.. sry I was busy with the pt earlier " she said apologetically.

" No probs Doc.. just called to confirm that u received invitation for my movie premiere " I said casually.

There is a complete silence on the other side.

" U r coming right??" I asked hopefully.

She released a sigh & said crushing my hopes " sry vijay I can't come."

"Common doc..it's just for 3 hrs that too in the evng. Ur patients won't miss u , they can manage for 3 hrs..." I joked expecting a positive reply from her.

" Its not that.. I didn't attend any celebrity party before. Moreover I won't be comfortable there " she said hesistantly.

" Common Deepu... I will be there na. Won't u be comfortable around me? " I asked trying to convince her.

" I am more than comfortable with u " she said, I was on cloud nine hearing that& She continued " but it's not about u ,there will be media all around. I don't want any unnecessary stuff to spread in the news."

Next words from her made my heart flinch & break into pieces " we both know that we r good frnds & there is nothing between us except frndship but media doesn't take it that way. I don't want you to be in any of those stupid rumours bcz of me. "

"Ok Deepu.. it's up to you. Bye " I said angrily & disconnected the call.

Does she really had no feelings on me. I can't digest the thought. She is restricting her heart bcz of her past. I wanted to know what happened in her past.

I wanted to see my movie premiere with her by hook or crook. I called my manager Akshay & said that I wanted Dr.Deepika's address in an hour.

I know she had a point but how can she say those words. I know she doesn't love me but those words from her angered me like hell.

My phone pinged indicating the msg from Akshay. It shows her address.

I quickly started to her appartment & shit this traffic...it's 7:00pm now, so there is no way to escape the traffic but to wait for it to clear.

At last I reached her appartments & parked my car at a distance. I don't want media or any others to identify me. So I disguised myself with hoodie, glasses & a scarf covering my face.

Finally I reached outside her flat without anyone noticing me & knocked her door.

In a minute door opened &
Ahhhhhhhh..............Ahhhhhhhh.........
