As I cut her call, I didn't know why, I felt much better. And much lighter than
before. All that tension seemed to ease up a little. Suddenly my phone started
ringing and I let out a groan. Flashing the name Swayam, it continued to ring
till I actually picked it up.
Swayam: Hey Sharon. Kya kar rahi ho?
Sharon: Hey Swayam, Erm, I hope you know we aren't actually a couple.
Swayam: Hey relax, I know. I was just generally asking.
Sharon: Ya, nothing in general. Just relaxing around. You had some work?
Swayam: No erm actually, Yes.
Sharon: Ya, tell me then.
Swayam: Actually now that officially you're my girlfriend people would expect
you to you know go around with me so,
Sharon: So?
Swayam: There is this some launch of a new magazine and all
the couples would be like going together so people would be you know expecting
you to come along with me. So you know if you could make it.
Sharon : Erm, Ill definitely try but I cant assure you anything.
Swayam: Sharon, if you're not comfortable, then its totally fine. If the media
asks something, Ill just make up some excuse.
Sharon: No, don't worry. Ill join you tonight.
Swayam: Then shall I pick you up by 9? If that's fine.
Sharon: Ya, sounds cool.
As I ended my conversation with Swayam, Panic was evident all over my face.
What am I supposed to wear, What shall my body language be like, how am I
supposed to interact with people out there, How to answer the media. And I knew
who had the answers to this question, my savior, Ammy.
As soon as I got a message from her saying she's at home I left for her place.
And within 10 minutes I was outside her room.
These days I had been quite frequently visiting the Shekhawat Mansion,
all thanks to Swayam. She opened her door and without even wasting a second, I
started bombarding her with my questions.
"Relax" was all she said as we entered her room.
She explained me everything in detail.
Never to avoid media questions or behave rudely with them as that would
just lead to another made up story in the newspaper. If asked something too
personal, just reply with a "no personal questions". Be careful of the fact
that you and Swayam narrate the same love story you shared. Never get close to
any of the stresses. Maintain quality distance with Swayam's co-stars and
lastly always put up a smile. She then
took my out a fitted black long dress along with a set made of real diamonds.
Without actually arguing I out it on and was ready with a few minutes. I curled
my hair at the bottom and placed them infront of my left shoulder. Finally
slipping into a pair of black stilettos, I put on slight make up and there I
was ready. All I hoped was the first appearance, as Mr. Swayam Shekhawat's
girlfriend shouldn't turn out to be a way too unpleasant experience.
