The ShowOffs - Part 25

It was morning shoot. Everyone were getting ready for the shoot. The junior artists were getting briefed by assistant directors on their roles. The set was being laid out by technicians and set designers. RK was finalizing on the some changes in the script. It was indeed busy day. The last week's turmoil didn't affect them.

The shoot went smoothly. There were no hiccups in between. Rajbir and Simran were perfect in their act. RK was happy with the shoot. Others were happy to finish the shoot. They were relieved that RK didn't scold them for small mistake. Rajbir anxiously paced around near Simran's makeup room He didn't understand how he was going to apologize her.

She got out of the room and was surprised to see him waiting for her. "What are you doing here ?", she asked . Before he could reply, she spoke, "Oh I forgot ! You are here to complain about my mother and then blame me for her actions. It's fine ! Say it ! I won't feel bad. I am used to it."  She fumed as she spoke.

"I am sorry ! I shouldn't have reacted that way. I am sorry for the slap too.", he said softly. "I don't buy it.", she said immediately leaving the place. Rajbir followed her. She didn't want to speak to him. She quickly got inside her car as soon as she saw it. She didn't bother to heed any calls from him.

He banged his hand in the air. He was frustrated. He knew that she was hurt. He had to beg hard for her apology. The guilt was killing him. What he did was wrong but now he wanted to change it all. He only wanted her forgiveness. It was a challenge.

She fell on her bed. She clutched pillows and covered her eyes. She wanted to be alone. She was tired of being used as door mat for other people's emotions. She was angry at him and didn't want any relationships with him. She was going to cut him off from her life as soon as the movie was over.
