The ShowOffs - Part 36

Rajbir banged his fist on the door out of frustration. The guilt within him magnified. He convinced himself to try again next day. He waited for her arrival next day impatiently. He arrived at the shoot early. He rushed to her room and found that she hadn't arrived yet. He looked at the time on his watch. There was still time.

He waited eagerly for her. He would turn behind to see whenever someone appeared in the room. He would ask them when she would arrive. They would reply him that she would arrive shortly. He was getting impatient. Finally she arrived. She didn't look happy when she found him. She whispered something to her manager's ear.

Her manager asked him to leave. He didn't understand. But he left. He didn't want to create more drama. He was already on blacklist of his director. "Why is she avoiding me? Why is she not letting me in ?", he wondered.  The shoot commenced. They finished their scenes in few takes. RK was weirdly quiet after the incident.

When the shoot was completed, he rushed back to her room. Unfortunately she had left again. He was getting more frustrated with each passing day. Finally, he decided to do something different. He rushed towards her place after the shoot. He asked for her and she refused to meet him. He didn't stop. He came daily. He kept asking for her and the servants would say the same thing - she didn't want to meet him. Eventually, she asked her servants to not to entertain his request and restrain him from coming home.

This didn't dampen his hope. He continued to come to her place and wait outside. Simran was irritated. She was slightly relieved that Sonia was not in town. But she knew that her mother would eventually know about this development. She decided to meet him next day and sort this out.

She found him next morning outside her house. Unfortunately the media had surrounded his car. She managed to reach him with great difficulty. Everyone wanted to grab the juicy news first. They bombarded her with questions from all sides. She remained silent and sat inside the car. He woke up in confusion. He noticed many journalists swarming around his car to know what was going inside the car. "What's happening?", he asked. "You should be knowing better. Anyway, meet me before the shoot.", she said. He watched her leave with bewilderment.
