Chapter 31

"Thanks for this." The designer said smiling while I am just standing before the mirror and her assistants adjusting the dress properly.

"I should thank you for letting me wear this new design of yours." I said smiling at the mirror where I can see her.

"I approached Mr. Vikranth to let someone from his agency wear the new design so that it can get promoted but I never expected him to get his star for the promotion." I felt awkward hearing that but also good.

After the dress got adjusted properly she took the measurements to make the changes so that I can wear it in the evening.

I glanced at my manager and asked her to check whether I need to get the pictures clocked before leaving for the venue or not.

"Mr. Vikranth said let the reporters take the pictures and not reveal it ahead." I nodded before we both walked out of the store and reached Manoj who is waiting for us.

He is completely involved in his phone and didn't even realize us approaching him. He got startled hearing my voice and put his phone away.

"What happened?" I asked him frowning.

"Nothing! I really need not take you to the venue?" he asked again and I shook my head.

"My Boy... my fiancé will be there and he decided that we should take his car. So, you can leave after dropping me at my place." I assured him and turned to look at Mehtab.

"You can also take leave. I don't have anything to do for two days after this and just enjoy your time." I added and she immediately nodded.

After I reached the hotel, he drove away to drop her and then go to his place. I yawned stepping inside feeling tired after waking up so early.

It's good that I already got my hair done and have to wear the dress when they send it to my room.

I called Kanika after reaching the room and asked, "How r u?"

"I am not the one that got into an accident. Why are you asking that everyday?" she asked back and I smiled sitting down.

"But you are the one taking care of him. He will not be fine for the next month and why to unnecessarily ask that?" I pointed out.

"Right!" she mumbled sighing.

"Is it hard for you? I can imagine him being a very difficult patient to take care of." I said hearing that sigh.

"No! He is not at all difficult. He listens to everything properly." She assured me and I have a hard time accepting that part for sure.

"Are you getting ready?" she asked when I stayed silent while imagining Vikranth listening to Kanika like a good boy.

"Uhmm... waiting for the dress to arrive. It's just afternoon but I got my hair and makeup done." I replied and we both talked for a while before she cut off saying she needs to get him lunch.

Even I want to have some lunch? I thought rubbing my stomach. Why do I have this habit of not having anything before any kind of these gatherings?

I sighed leaning on the chair and closed my eyes while making sure the hairstyle doesn't get damaged.

****

"Say something!" I mumbled feeling nervous when he just kept on staring at me.

I got ready on time and he too arrived properly and right now standing at the entrance of my room while just staring at me.
