ShiRan/Arjun Poonam FF || Parineeta update. Pg. 13 - Page 8

"So miss Parineeta do you have any modeling experience or can we see your portfolio?" One person from the panel asked and Poonam was not ready for this question, as she did not thought of having portfolio with her

"No Sir It is my first time besides I don't have any portfolios" She replied nervously

Panel Judges exchange looks and she tightly closed her fists as her hands were sweating

"Well Miss Parineeta, we will let you know about our decision, list of finalists will be up in two days, Thank you" Lady said to her and she smiled and came outside

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Yaar chor de peecha uss larki ka, woh tujhe nahi mile gi" Aakash literally joined hands in front of him, while Arjun put the card in his pocket and with a smiling face said, "Arjun agar kisi larki ko importance de raha hai, toh woh usse aik din zaroor mile gi" Saying this he stepped inside the hall

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

As she entered the home Rohan ran towards her and hugged her, "Didi Ice cream chahiye" She smiled and caressed his hairs, "Ok main fresh ho jaoon phir chalet hain"

"Ok" Rohan gets happy at this, only then Anjali came there

"Tum tuition kyun nahi ja rahi? Nahi kaam hota toh apna intezaam kahin aur ker lo humain tumhari zaroorat nahi hai"

"Mama Didi abhi ghar aayee hain aap kabhi to Didi se pyar se baat ker liya kero" Rohan interfered

"Tum chup raho Didi ke chamche, iss ki maa se pyar se baat ki thi issi liye toh aaj yeh din daikhna parh raha hai" Poonam puts her head down

"Aap fikar mat kijiye, mujhe kuch bhi kerna parhe main iss ghar ki zimedaari hamesha nibhaoon gi" She said while Anjali went inside again frowning, She turned to Rohan and smiled forcefully, tumhain kya hua, let's go"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

She was 99.9% sure that she won't be selected in the final list of models but she get shocked seeing her name, "Parineeta" in the list, She was not happy with this as she don't want to do this job, besides if she will do it then Anjali will never forgive her, but she decided to give it a try and to enter in the fashion industry

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Today was her first photo shoot of her life, She was angry on herself rather being nervous of facing camera, it was due to her past she was entering into this industry;

"Agar Maa ko pata chale gat oh unhain kitna bura lage ga" The beautician was doing her make up and she was thinking of what she has to face in the upcoming days, "Laikin main yeah sub unn ke liye hi toh ker rahi hoon, I am sure yeah jaan ker who mujhe maaf ker dain gi"

"Madam" She came out of her thoughts at the voice of beautician

"Look at yourself, I've never saw such a mesmerizing beauty" She complemented her and Poonam could not even smile

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Look straight"

"Chin Up"

"Move a bit to right"

"Into camera"

"Slightly turn to left"

Photographer clicked many of her photos and now showing her which she was )% interested in. She went into the makeup room straight after the shoot

"Hi" She turned scared listening someone's voice at her back, It was some stranger

"My name is Raj Arora, I am a fashion designer, I was just wondering if you want to work with me" He introduced himself

"But I don't have any professional experience of modeling, it was just ……" But Raj cut her sentence and continued

"No one has the experience, if you want to make your name in the industry then I am confident at me being the best option for you" Poonam thought for a while and then agreed to his proposal

"This is my card, Visit me at my office sharp 9:00"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

She was there at 8:30 and now waiting for Raj Arora to come when she saw some familiar face entering from the glass door

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

She was there at 8:30 and now waiting for Raj Arora to come when she saw some familiar face entering from the glass door

"Yeah toh …. Isse kahin daikha hai per kahan? (Who is he, I've seen him somewhere but wher?)" after giving much thought she did not remember where she has seen the person but the other person recognized her at first glance

"ID card wali (One with the ID Card)" Arjun muttered while Aakash unintentionally asked, "Kahan"

"There at Sofa, but what is she doing here?" Arjun pointed his finger to her while she looked down nervously

"Yeah donon mujhe aise kyun daikh rahe hain? Inn mein se aik ko toh kahin daikha hai main ne per kahan? Mujhe yaad kyun nahi aa raha (Why they are staring at me like this, Why can't I remember that I've seen one of them somewhere, but where and when! I am blank)" Only then the receptionist asked her to go in to the office, She headed towards office before entering she turned to look at them the familiar one was whispering to the other, she ignoring it entered in the office

"Yaar yeah Raj se kyun milne gayee hai? (Why she is meeting Raj?)" Arjun asked while Aakash was surprised at his question

"Tujhe kya! Uss ki merzi yaar, koi kaam ho ga usse (What's your problem it's her personal matter)"

"Hmm" He nodded and went to his Uncle's office

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Here is the contract you can sign after reading it" Raj gave her the contract paper and she read the clauses

She can't work for any other designer or company for 6 months, neither she can sign any contract with any advertising agency nor she can do any film or drama

"Remuneration?" She asked

"What will you charge?" Raj asked her

"10 Lac per show" She said without giving much thought

Raj thought for a while as she was new and it could be a risk of launching a new model spending such a huge amount but then he looked at her beauty he can cash her beauty by any means, She will be all his after signing the contract

"Ok, you can fill the column" She signed the contract, the contract from where her life will take a u turn

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Kya! (What!)" Anjali was shocked rather being angry at her listening about her job

"Iss mein bura kya hai, aaj kal toh sub hi …… (What's wrong in it everyone is doing this now ...)" she tried to convince but Anjali stopped her

"BUSS aakhir saabit ker diya na tum ne ke khoon khoon hi hota hai, chali ho na apni maa ke raaste per (You proved that you are the daughter of your mother, at last you showed your true colours, you have chosen the path of your mother)" Tears came in Poonam's eyes but controlling herself when she spoke her voice was wet

"Per maa mujhe kahin aur job nahi mil sakti meri qualification nahi hai ke main …. (But Maa I can't get job anywhere because my qualification ...)"

"Haan qualification toh hai na tumhaare paas duniya ko khush karne ki aur ghar walon ko pareshan karne ki (Yes you have qualification to worry your family and to entertain the world)"

"Maa please such mein iss job se hum bohat jald achi jagah shift ho jaaien ge aur phir humain rent pe rehne ki bhi zarurat nahi rahe gi (Maa please we can shift from here at some good place and we don't need to be tenant anymore)" She tried once again

"Buss Poonam, tumhain jana hai yahan se toh jao hum kahin nahi jaaien ge, aur tumhaare saath toh bikul nahi(Enough Poonam, you want to leave you can but we won't go anywhere and with you never)"

"Per Maa …." Before she could say any further Anjali left from there and she let her tears to come out

"Kya kasoor hai mera, kyun mujhe kabhi apnon ka pyar nahi mil sakta, kya meri qismat mein kisi ka pyar nahi! Kya mere naseeb mein yun hi tanha rehna likha hai! (What I hve done wrong, why i can't get love of my beloved one's! Would I remain alone like this ever and never get true love!)" She was complaining only then a star fallen down, "Kash mujhe kabhi koi aisa mile joh mujhe samajh sake aur mujh se mere liye pyar kare(I wish I get someone who love me for being what I am, and who understands me)" Her wish has been heard by God!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Four months have been passed, everything was changed in these four months, Poonam succeeded to convince Anjali and Reet to shift in new house, Anjali agreed only if she would not stay with them and she agreed, Reet only talked to her whenever she would in need of money and it was enough for her. She has created her name in the fashion industry and now she was an in demand model of the industry.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"So Parineeta the famous model, the first choice to designers for the show stopper, I have a biggest proposal for you and I am sure this will lead you to the new heights" Poonam was sitting with Raj Arora in his office

"What Sir?" She asked

"Would you be the show stopper for my new bridal collection?" Raj asked

"Of course sir why did you ask this I mean I am in contract with you"

"Actually there would be a male showstopper also" Now Poonam understand why he asked her because before that she only did solo modeling assignments, It was the first time she get such an offer

"Which male showstopper?" She asked

"Arjun Mehra" Raj Arora said and she barely remember that she met any person with this name

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Acha kaun ho gi saath mein, please yaar kisi new larki ko na rakhna (Which girl don't tell me that she is new)" Aakash told Arjun that Raj wanted him to be groom in the upcoming fashion week

"I guess new hi hai, Parineeta naam hai uss ka (I guess she is new, her name is Parineeta)"

"Parineeta" He repeated
