PART 2

Agli bar chodunga nahi, said Chotu gritting his teeth.
Haan haan dekh lena, Sanjay replied nonchalantly.
He turned towards sanya and was about to apologize, but she interrupted him, It's okay chotu ho jata hain kabhi kabhi, she smiled placing her hand on his shoulder in a reassuring manner.
He felt guilty, mentally promised to punish himself. I'm sorry sanya pehle hi you are unwell, he said regretfully. His fingers automatically curled into fist and nose flared with anger, Upar se who director bhi, he said in a low voice.
Yeh sab toh mera kaam hain chotu..aur director sir bhi toh unka kaam hi kar rahe hain na, she replied in a calm voice.
He looked at her unconvinced.
Right Chotu? She repeated demanding his assent. He nodded in agreement, halfheartedly.
Poor guy she thought, must be feeling really embarrassed. In an attempt to lighten his mood a bit she said, Wasie chotu…..kya step kiya tha tumne. Very impressive! She winked at him. He stared at her and then turned his face away.
Mujhe sikhaoge na, she added turning to his side to face him.
He folded his hand across his chest. Chida rahi ho na mujhe, he replied the same way like a kid does when you tease him.
No really , teach me na! She said grinning.
A smile crept on his lips. She really wants to learn from him, Aww he thought Sanya is such a sweet heart. Okay, dekho pehle right leg, he said placing his right foot forward , aur phir left hand, he started demonstrating the step.
Arrey yahan road pe nahi, she said grabbing his hand. She looked around hoping nobody saw them, thankfully nobody did. Giggling at his antics she said, Ghar jaake sikhana..okay!
Okay, he nodded.
Aga bai! Paath kiti dukhtay! (Oh God, my back is aching so much), he said to himself gently massaging his back. Got inside the car and they left the studio.

Next Day
10:30 a.m
Sanya's Home
As he entered the living room, he saw her sitting on the couch, reading a newspaper.
Tum hi din chadhe tumhi din dhale, tum hi ho bandhu sakha tumhi………. Her phone announced its presence.
She grabbed the phone and kept it on speaker.
Hey Appy! She chirped.
*Chotu's POV*
Ai Ga! Not again, he thought. This Appy aka Aparna is such a pest. Everybody has such kind of a friend, the one who is sugar coated outside and bitter in the inside. I must warn Sanya, he thought.
Dedh Shaani(oversmart) kahin ki! He cursed her.
*End of POV*
Hey babez. How are you now? asked a sweet voice.
Better…you tell me..how are you? Sanya replied.
Never been better! Appy replied. Aacha tell me how is the shooting going on? She asked in a curious voice.
Shooting is going fine, Sanya replied..kyu? she added not able to comprehend why is she asking about shooting all of a sudden.
Appy replied with a mischievous hint in her voice, Sanya…woh..
Oh that! Sanya understood where she was getting to. Nothing yaar, she said in an attempt to shut the topic. She paused for a while and replied, you know how Sushant is right!
Don't worry, everything will be fine, Appy replied in a clearly unconcerned voice.
I hope so! Said Sanya.
So , you are coming to the party right? Appy asked in a casual manner .
Party? Which party? Sanya asked rubbing her forehead, trying to remember.
Don't tell me you don't remember about the party. Appy replied in a stern voice.
Yeaaah, I am not coming yaar, Sanya replied feeling completely disinterested.
Whhaaat? Cried Appy. Are you freakin crazy!
It is gonna be "THE PARTY", appy said in crazy voice stressing on each and every word. Why are you not coming by the way?
She didn't waited for her to answer, Come on sanya! You have to come okay!
-Flash Flash- The tiny Led light blinked.
Sanya replied,Okay Okay…Listen I am getting another call I will call you later. Bye and she disconnected the call and switched the line.
Yes? She asked.
It was a call from the production house, Okay..i will be there at 9.Thanks!
Keeping the phone back at its place, she saw his standing near the gate.
Chotu? Kuch kaam hain? She asked.
Haan, he replied. How should I put this now? he thought. Ma'am, actually…
Cutting him in the middle she replied, For the umpteenth time call me Sanya please!
Sorry, Sanya actually, he paused. I was thinking ki……
Haan bolo, she said nodding her head in an encouraging manner.
Can I take a half day, I have to meet a friend, he asked feeling a bit hesitant.
She smiled, Yeah sure!
I'll be back by 5, he added.
Okay, she said and went to her room.
Damn! She looks tensed, he thought.
