Their jinxed love - Part 4

Ironically, Jenny was first one to get ready for the shoot. She checked her watch. There was still five minutes for the shoot to begin. It was audition round. Long queues of prospective contestants stood outside the set. The show was one of nation's popular dance show. After 12 successful seasons, makers had decided to do something different. They had replaced their usual choreographer judges with controversial ex couple (Jenny and Gaurav) to increase the ratings of the show.

Jenny felt someone place their hand behind her shoulder. She turned around to see who it was. "Hi Jenny !", greeted young woman who could be few years younger than Jenny. "Hi !", she greeted her back with uncertainty in her voice. She couldn't recognize her. She wondered whether she was a fan who managed her way through the crew members to meet her. "I am big fan of you. I have watched all your movies on first day first show basis.", the young woman said not realizing that Jenny wasn't uncomfortable.

Finally Jenny identified a crew member passing by and called him out, "Hey there ! I need your help." The crew member became excited by getting called by famous star. He came to her assistance instantly. "Yes, ma'am.", he said with goofy smile. "I don't understand how can you guys be irresponsible.", she said firmly. His smile vanished as he wondered what wrong he must have done to upset her. "You let a fan surpass such tight security your boss boasts about and meet the stars when they have specifically mentioned that they don't want to meet anyone during the shoot.", she said while pointing at the young girl.

The crew member stared at the girl in confusion. The girl remained calm. "But ma'am...", he started to explain. Jenny didn't let him explain. She began complaining about the lax in the security and other shortcomings of crew members like her coffee wasn't served hot or how her clothes didn't fit right and many other things. 

Gaurav arrived at right time. He hugged the young girl and spoke, "What's this commotion about?". Jenny stopped speaking. "She thinks I am a fan who trespassed into the stage. But I don't think it's her mistake. It was my mistake. I greeted her by introducing myself as her big fan. So that's why all this confusion.", the young girl explained while smiling momentarily. 

"Aww ! Ruby, look at you ! You are still that simple girl , full of humility and kindness. No starry tantrums like others.", he said, taunting Jenny in the end. "Oh stop it , Gaurav ! You are too much.", Ruby said. Jenny was embarrassed. "I am sorry !", she said softly. Ruby smiled at her. "Oh my God! Did someone just say sorry? You know, Ruby, it's difficult to make some people realize their mistake.", he mocked. Jenny couldn't take it any more. She stomped towards her vanity room, in anger.
