Chapter 30

"Congratulations on finishing your shooting." I smiled at the bouquet before taking it from my co-star Lucky.

"Thank you!" I mumbled glancing at him.

"You seem to be too happy to not come back to these sets again." He pointed out and I gave him a guilty look.

"If I say I am, then do you think I will not be signed by another film?" I asked and he laughed shaking his head.

"Of course not! You better be prepared as after this gets released, you may need to choose from many projects and you may already have to by now." He replied shrugging.

"I hope so! When will you finish your part?" I asked finding my temporary manager waiting for me with Manoj.

"By next week! I finished my major part already as they were with you. And by next month we can finish dubbing too." He said and I nodded at him.

"I guess we may get to meet there if our schedule crosses." I said taking my bag from the chair.

"Okay! Let's meet then or else at the celebration at the end day of the shooting. You must be there." He stressed and I assured him before walking towards the car waiting for me.

"Is there a place in the car?" I asked gesturing the new one I got after so many from other people on the set.

"No! I have to hold two in my hands right now." Mehthab replied and I sighed sitting inside the car and held the bouquet in my hand itself.

When I found his message asking me to join him for dinner, I smiled before asking Manoj to drop me at the restaurant.

"I want to ask for leave next month. I need to go to my home town for a personal reason." Mehthab suddenly said and I turned to glance at her.

"Okay! Just let me know the dates ahead." I replied while waiting to reach his place as I am damn hungry but also because I can eat anything he makes today as there is no schedule for one whole week.

After reaching the place, I asked them to go and will definitely call them if I need anything and rushed towards the stairs and climbed them in a hurry from the front of the building.

We both decided that I will use the back one after his restaurant closes and the front one during other times. As everyone will be in the kitchen who can see me using the stairs if I take the back way and there is no reason for my presence to be hidden anymore after they see me.

"You are already here?" he asked when I stepped inside and while he is arranging the dishes on the table.

"Yes! I am really hungry. But first I will freshen up." Saying that I started walking towards the bedroom.

"Will you take a bath with that bouquet?" he asked and I realized I am still holding it while all others must have been sent to the agency already.

"I forgot! Lucky gave me these at the end and I was holding them in the car. Somehow I ended up bringing them with me." I sighed placing them carefully on the bedside table before rushing towards the washroom.

Suddenly after finishing the shooting, there is a sense of relief passing through for sure even though I am really waiting for more projects as my desire to settle in India increased more after having him in my life.

"What are you doing?" I asked frowning when I stepped out to find him glaring at the bouquet I just placed.

"You actually placed these here. Are you trying to make me jealous?" he asked still not turning around and I rolled my eyes.
