~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

P.S , I love the outfits of both the girls. Tell me if you too"

He...he.. girls* 😅

Anu's point of view:-

"Shirley ... you're so stubborn"

I whined at her.

"Shut up... I am stubborn okay" she scolded me and I can feel the cold liner which she is applying.

she turned me and she said "Okay you can open your eyes"

I opened my eyes slowly and looked at her and she was talking proudly saying, "Talented hoon main" pushing her hair back.

She turned me to the mirror.

"It's me?"

I looked at myself again...

"I told ya...that a stroke of eyeliner won't eat you up" she giggled.

"Ya..ya.. kaha Tha" I mumbled while looking at my phone.

"Haaa toh abb chal na" she said pulling me with a jerk and I looked up at her holding my phone tightly so that it doesn't fall.

"No..no..main Ni ja rahi "

"Sharma Kyu rahi hai..." She kept he hands on her waist "All are waiting"

She huffed while she walked near me.

"Pagal Hai Kya....andar hi rahegi?"

I nodded as I sat down again.

"Look even the media is here" she said while looking out from the window.

"Tu jaa, Main ni jaa rahi"

Iuttered looking at myself .

"you're not going to stay here , you're looking really good ..."

I inhaled deeply ...I stood up as she held my hand.

"Sanam ne dekh liya toh"

Obviously mujhe dekhega woh...Kya faida ..if I don't go now he'll surely come himself.

I thought as I smiled at Shakti who was talking with Raghav and he smiled in return.

"Hey Samar" she stopped suddenly and I looked at him and smiled.

Suddenly she went away when Aayushmaan (her manager) called her.

"Someone's looking hot today" Samar smirked at me and I say "Thanks " with a soft smile .

Sanam fake coughed at him,

"Samar saali hai Teri" and Samar winked at me while Keshav tried not to laugh.

Samar grinned while pulling me

"Saali toh Aadhi gharwaali hoti hai"

We broke out laughing at Sanam as Sanam rolled his eyes and picked up a glass of wine and suddenly Keshav said ,

"Haa toh apni waali ko bhi dekh Samar"

Samar looks at Anushka, she's talking to Piyush standing at a distance.

I see the way he's looking at Anushka...like she's magic.

"Tum Dono bandiyo ne ....jaan hi le rakhi hai..what did you eat when you were growing....you both look like magic?"

Samar comments while not taking his eyes off Anushka.

"Where is Venky?" I asked Sanam when he stood beside me and he says "Remy is call tha..he must be attending it"

I felt someone's gaze on me and

My eyes went on Sanam as he had his hands in his pocket as he looked at me from toe to head and smirked at me.

"Samar said just the right things" and I gave him a smile "It just takes the right guy to see it" and he nodded.

"Atleast you said that I am the right guy" making me giggle.

He gave me an Expression making me look away from him.

"Sanam nahi hota na..toh I would ask you to be my date" Keshav said to me and he received a deadth glare from Sanam.

Samar's point of view:-

I was enjoying the weird expressions of Sanam.

"Haa toh apni waali ko bhi dekh Samar" Keshav said to me nudging my shoulder.

She suddenly looked at me and my face lits up with a smile itself.

I snapped out from my world when I heard an announcement on the mic and we cheered for Raghav who was our host this evening.

She walked towards us with her arms a little open...is she going to give me a hug?

I take a step forward when she comes closer but she walked past me and she hugged Sanam while he grinned at me and I folded my hands and sighed.

Bas... main toh Mars pe jaa raha hoon...

"Koi abhi mujhe jealous feel karwa raha tha" Sanam said to Anushka while looking at me.

I pulled Anu as she was enjoying the fight "Kuch log hi ajeeb hote hai"

"Samar sir...here" I smiled at a media photographer.

The staff had made a place for the interviewers and photographers by making a barrier which prevented them from jumping in.

We all walked to a table to sit down. Anushka & Anu sat with us.

"You're looking flawless" Venky comments to Anushka and she smiled at him while Sanam was busy irritating Anu with him SANAMisms...

"Hey what will you call when we touch money? I mean what will stick to it?"

He asked her again and she got confused...

I Know this one ,

"Germany" I said while she looked at me.

Sanam nodded at her,

"Yaa yeh usne pehle suna hai...Uss money or germs lag jaayenge" and she says "Ya... very funny now listen" she points to the stage.

Even I don't know what's going on...and I'll let it be.

I look at Anushka how she is watching all this with her hand subconsciously resting on my arm. She giggled as Raghav cracked a joke in the centre.

The most beautiful curve is her smile and .... I sigh softly while she tugged a few strands of hair behind her ear.

I rested my elbow on the table and suddenly She turns and she looked at me and rose her eyes ... I realized that all are the people here are looking at me.

What did I do?...

"Samar...they just said that you're known for your electrifying Guitar riff" she says again to me and I snapped out from my world.

"Oh..."

I think I should pay attention to other things also...

Wake up Samar.

I look at Raghav waiting for my reaction and I nodded at him as a sign of acceptance and he continues,

"And ya....the scene you did with Keshav in 'Mere Sapno ki Rani' ...got us rolling on the floor laughing"

All the people in the room laughed amongst the sounds of clicking of photographs.

I catch Keshav already looking at me and I know that scene is in his mind too and we laughed at each other.

I remember that scene when I pulled Keshav...and I smiled remembering that.

"You seemed to like that actress haa? " Anushka rose one of her eyebrow and I say "Naah" making her giggle at me.

My eyes felt on Anika she's standing there with Riya constantly staring at Anushka in between her conversation ....and when she saw me she smiled.

Why is she acting to act normal? And it's not at all normal for her.

Really ... she's not up to anything?

Uske dimaag mein Kuch chal toh nahi raha.

I need to be around Anushka...

"Samar .. down to earth now"

Anushka snapped her fingers in front of me.

"What Happened?" Anushka asked looking at me...and I smiled,

"Nothing..just a photographer there"

I assured her and she nodded while smiling back at me.

Finally that session is over and we are free to roam now.

We all clapped and stood up from our chairs and I suddenly saw a man taking close ups of Anushka and I asked a waiter to get him away.

We started chatting with the others about the event which was a big success and I didn't left her hand even for a second.

Anushka got out her hand from her long pink dupatta (a long scarf; in the images above) and she looked at her phone but she ignored it and I asked "Who's it?" And she replied "Mom..." And Keshav says "take it then" when it rang again and she nodded.

She smiled at a media photographer when he called out to her.

She has become a used to tphis now .

I was pulled by Raghav and I ask "Bro where are you taking me?" And he said while walking through the crowd "to meet my friends" I collided with Anika.

"Sorry.. I didn't" but she was on a call saying,

"Maine jaaise Kaha hai wahi Karna.. okay... I don't want anything different from my plan"

She went away saying this.

I think she didn't see me ... I shrugged my shoulders and went with Raghav.

Sanam's Point of view:-

"Where is Samar?" Anushka asked as soon as she returns after taking the call "I kidnapped your boyfriend And you don't get him back now"

"Sanam she's your soon to be Bhabhi yaar...it's not good to irritate her "

Keshav said while sipping his wine.

"Shut up ....Keshu" Anushka slapped her bisceps while he continues laughing.

"Raghav took Samar with him" Anu answered her and she nodded at her.

"Hey Sanam" I felt a hand on my shoulder "Hi..Riya" I smiled fakely at her.

"Riya we're here too" Keshav irritated her and she smiled at him nodding off his comment.

I wrapped my arms around Anu and I

Asked Riya "So... how's your modelling going on?" And she said "it's not good..." She was looking at my arms around her.

All of us looked at her.

"Haa?" I asked her quiet amused with her answer And she looked at me "I mean it's going good" and I nodded quietly at her.

"So..I will see you around the corner" and we nodded at her smiling.

While I was mentally saying to her.

Absolutely No.

"Guys Guys guys..." Silence once again was present in the hall and we turned towards Remo sir and Terrence sir... Holding mics ..

"So...now the most beautiful part if this party is the couple dance and..." Terrence sir was interrupted by Remo sir "Leave this..and run to the ball room downstairs"

All of us laughed as they argued about this interruption of Remo and people started heading to the ball room.

"Haa...toh .. Chale..?" Samar appeared again and looked at us and Keshav said "yaar I wish I was dating" and made a baby face.

"You're so cute Keshu" Anu pull his cheeks.

"Haa... mujhe chor ke saare cute hai...Saari duniya cute hai"

"I know that thanks"

"Shut up..." Let's go I added and we walked towards the stairs.

"Koi Sanam pe Paani daalo" Keshav smirked at me while Samar , Venky and Anushka were trying not to laugh.

We were about to head down when I saw Riya on Anu's side talking to her...wait she's talking to Anu?

What going on in her mind?

"Yaar usse khade toh hone de dhang se..." I mumbled while I slipped my hands in my pocket.

"Pakad usko ....pakad usko"

I turned at Samar as he muttered this to me and I say "What do you mean?"

We were standing while the people were rushing downstairs.

"Pakad usko.." he Snapped at me again and I realized Anu was on the edge while Riya was talking to her.

"Iss Ladki ka dimaag nahi Hai... Last night she jumped in my room...after breaking my window she's doing this"

I jumped near Anu and wrapped my arms around her.

"Gotcha!!!"

I smiled at her when she realised that she had been saved from being pushed down the stairs ,she opened her eyes.

"Woh Chipku itna chipak rahi thi...phir bhi you didn't understand her plan?" I asked her as we straighten up.

"Mujhse Kuch seekh Sanam"

Samar smirked and was successful able to make me to thank him .... fakely.

We saw Keshav downstairs and he was telling us to come fast.

I hope I get her as my partner...

......................

I sighed softly looking at Anu as she was with Keshav standing in their position.

I don't wanna know that I am standing with Riya ... I wanna cry mentally.

Samar is really lucky in this that he's with Anushka but I know that there will a partner exchange fortunately.

The music started as all the pairs started dancing on the floor .

"The hall is so beautiful" I thought while looking at the chandeliers...

"You should focus on your partner..."

I hear Riya hissing at me and I look at her and I gave her a bright fake smile.

"Ya sure"

Suddenly when I saw Keshav twirling Anu...it left me feeling like ...no I am not jealous bit what's mine is mine.

Keshav smirked at me ..."Tu mil mujhe ek baar"

he earned a death glare from me.

"Baby... look at ...."

Who said that,I am your "baby?" I fixed my eyes at Riya while she said "Me..."

"Riya what you did yesterday ....was wrong"

She grinned as she tightened her grip ok my shoulder "Everything is fair in love and war"

"Okay...then from me it's war..dekhte hai Kya hota Hai?"

I said while twirling her and she replied "And from me...it's Love"

"It's Lust...not love Riya"

"Whatever it maybe..." She huffed while we move in sync with the others and ya... now Anushka is not with Samar but with Piyush instead and he's looking at Anushka more than his own Partner...Who is Anika... Unfortunately. Yes she is with Bhai now.

"Jaldi koi Mera nhi change karwaado"

"Your jawline is .... Lit baby"

"Ya..I know"

I rolled my eyes at her.. ajeeb hai .. she's acting like she's my Girlfriend.

Even my girlfriend doesn't say it so clearly.

I looked towards Keshav while he nodded at me once.

Finally...all the people in the circle exchanged their partners .

I took her hand and pulled Anu in a hand lock.

"Hey beautiful.." and she said "Yes Mr.?"

"You finally got a chance to dance with me?" I grinned at her.

"No. Problem I can change the partner again"

"Aree yaar serious ho gayi?" I tried to laugh it off and she smiled cause she knew she was successful.

Anushka's Point of View:-

Thankfully after sometime...the ball was over and we proceeded to the hall again to wrap up the party.

I am really exhausted from the twirling and following leads of around 4 men non-stop.

I was chatting with Neha and Shirley cause they had pulled me aside to exchange some words with their friends.

"Hey....can I just have a second?"

"Ya..ya absolutely" Neha said while sipping some of her red wine and I got asked slowly and went into the balcony.

Finally some fresh air ...

Upar se yeh outfit...

I mean it's really beautiful but it tripled my exhaustion.

I looked at the Crescent moon and the starts and that scene when I sat with Samar ....is right in front of my eyes.

I smiled when I remembered how we used to stammer while taking to each other.

"Mam...mam"

I was pulled back from my world when I saw a waiter beside me ...

"Mam would you like to have it?"

I look up at that tall man dressed up neatly as the waiter but his uniform is different.

He holds up a tray with only one juice ...Why is there only one glass of juice with him?

For a waiter it's not normal..but ya shayad khatam ho Gaye ho.

"No..sir thanks" I take a step backwards "But you look exhausted..you should have it" he took a step towards me.

"No.. I don't need this" I again move

Backwards but this time I collided with the railing.

"Mam...you need this ...you look exhausted" he said again as I tried to go away.

"But mam..."

"Kya Kar rahe ho aap" I said as he took it back and said "Mam mujhe yeh ek glass leke jaana padega"

"Accha accha okay" I stopped him before he could go back.

I take the drink from him while he smiled at me...and I looked at the glass again .

"Umm...you can go now" I said and he said "ya..sure mam"

He went away and he disappeared in the people but I stood there with this drink in my hand.

I look at the garden again and I took the first sip of the drink...

It tastes different for an normal orange juice.

I noticed that this hotel's garden is really beautiful with a shining fountain in the moonlight.

It feels like burning my throat... I coughed while I decided to leave that juice left in the glass.

Why was this so... awkward?

I looked at the glass again while I coughed ....
