The shoot began. Everyone took their place. The clapboard was clapped. The background sound was played. Simran emoted her lines effortless. It was Rajbir's turn. Everyone's eyes were on Rajbir. Some hoped the yesterday's drama wouldn't start again. Some wanted the drama to be repeated again. RK stared at him , thinking what next was going to happen.
Rajbir uttered his first line. Everyone sighed except RK. Then he continued his lines with full conviction. The emotions was apt. The tone was right. The words were clearly spoken. There were no mistakes. His performance left the audience speechless.
RK was satisfied. "At least he is not a bad actor. He does what you ask for. But hope yesterday's drama doesn't start again.", he thought. The shoot ended with positive note. Everyone were contend with today's work. However they were happy that RK's anger had subsided today. They wished miracles happened everyday.
Rajbir headed towards Simran's room. She was resting on a chair with her eyes closed. Light music played. Unlike Simran's courteous manners, Rajbir entered the room. This startled her. She hadn't expected anyone. "Hey!", he said. Simran was still in shock. "Looks like you are back to normal", she said with weak smile. "Yes! Didn't you see today's performance.", he replied. "It was good. Everyone liked it.", she said.
"What about you?", he said, coming close to her. She moved backward. "I don't like people coming that close to me.", she said cautiously. "Sorry!", he said as he smiled. "I should thank you for yesterday's pep talk. I was thinking about treating you at this popular cafe. Will you care to join me?", he tried to imitate her proper manner in jester way.
