Soniya was in call. It was call from the news reporters covering entertainment segment. They were asking her about her reaction on growing relationship between her daughter and Rajbir. She had replied,"I have no qualms on whom she dates or not dates. I wish only her happiness." It was a clear lie. The reporters knew it. Few months back, she had given totally different statement. She had made it clear that she would miffed if her daughter was in relationship with anyone from the movie industry.
The reporters didn't want to argue. They only wanted to increase the rating of their channel. She smiled when she was done with the call. "This news will be sensational.", she thought aloud. "What news?", her daughter asked in confusion. She turned around to see her daughter. She smiled to conceal the shock on her face. "Nothing darling ! When did you arrive?", she asked.
"Now.", Simran replied. She looked down to find courage to tell her mother about today's episode. With great difficulty, she found the voice. It was just a whisper. "I didn't get you. You wanted to say something", Sonia said. "Mum, I was not in the studio. I was with Rajbir at the cafe. It.. wasn't a ..date . He just wanted to hang out with me. I ... didn't thought.. it would be worse. The paparazzi ....", she stammered.
But Sonia interrupted in between of her daughter's say. "I know that.", she said . Simran was appalled by her mother's knowledge. "How do you know that?", she asked. "I had checked with one of RK's assistant, Neha. She said that she saw you with Rajbir. So I asked her to check upon you. She told me that you were in that cafe. Seriously, you guys could only find that cafe. You could have visited some better place. Anyway, I gave the shutterbugs the information that you were there with him.", her mother said with conviction.
"That scumbag Neha! She always eavesdrops on everyone's life.", Simran thought furiously. Her eyes became smaller. Her nose twitched in anger. "How could you just send paparazzi behind our backs? This is not right, mother!" she asked furiously. She hardly bursts her anger. When she does, it is always dangerous. "I was doing it for your own good.", her mother defended herself. Simran stomped towards her room.
Soniya followed her. Before she could reach, Simran had banged the door of her room. She fell on the bed and cried endlessly. Her tears made wet spot on the clean floral white bed sheets. She had worried the whole time about hurting her mother. While her mother was only focused on movie and her career. Her mother didn't even bother to ask her at least once before she took the move while she always consulted with her mother first. She hated her mother for being cold and selfish.
