PART 2-a
Much later, around 7. Sid steps in to the flat with a smile on his lips and a fresh pack of Roli's favorite kaju katlis in his hands. He's very very happy today. His photoshoot with Lara is viral on social Medias and has turned to a talk in the town. This is the first time he is ever attempting something like this; and not to mention he is really really happy to see the successful results. Yes, there are a lot of sites coming up with lot of rumors and stuff but who cares; he very well knows that all these are common in the field and so doesn't affect him at all. Now he got to see Roli and share his happiness with her, of course in their special way. He smiles thinking of teasing her with his mischief and naughtiness all night. He had kept away the matter of this photoshoot even from her so that it'll serve as a surprise to her when she comes to know about it. And now when the time has come, he can't wait to do it.
"Roli...Roli...' Sid calls out as he finds her nowhere in the hall. "Where is this girl? Maybe in the bedroom...' he mumbles to himself and walks up to their room. As he reaches the open door, he spots Roli lying on the bed her face turned against him .he smiles naughtily and walks up to her with fairly inaudible steps. He keeps the pack of sweets aside and looks at her. "Roli.!!!' he shouts playfully as he jumps to the bed, near to her. But Roli remains impervious. She is still under the effect of the horrible stuff she had watched a while ago and now she doesn't want to talk to him. If she does, she is pretty sure that she'll lose all her threshold and do something stupid. "Huh???' Sid looks up as he finds Roli still not looking at him. "What happened to madam? You seem to be so stubborn today...chalo, no issue...I know how to tame my stubborn girl...' he says lovingly and puts his arm on her shoulder. But next moment, he feels his hand shoved away in a particularly aggressive way; well clearing to him that all is not well. Yet, he tries to hold on to his humorous side and solve if there is any issue. He knows it; his Roli is a little mimosa plant; a small issue and she cannot bear it. "Abbey...sherni is so angry!!!!Let me know what's so wrong...' Sid says and forcibly makes Roli face him. It is then when he notices it. She has screw shut her face with her palms and he can even hear her trying to control her sobs which are going out of her hand. He panics instantly, what might be the matter, he thinks tensely. "Roli...what happened???? Why are you crying????' he asks as he tries to open her palms and see her face. Roli tries to resist him but ultimately his strong hands succeed in removing her palms off her face. The sight that welcomes is her bloodshot eyes and the reddened nose and cheeks. "What happened to you Roli????' he questions all shocked as he cups her face. Roli furrows her brows as she begins to cry again and with full force, gets up pushing him away. "Let anything happen to me!!! What bothers you Siddhantji???? It doesn't obviously affect you at all...' she barks at him, losing her control. Siddhant is obviously dazed. This is something that he didn't think of even in his rarest dreams. This cannot be his Roli. Where his soft, shy, patient Roli has gone, he wonders. He gets up quickly and walks up to her. "Roli...what's the matter? why're you talking to me like this?' asks him trying to put his arm on her shoulder again. He faces another push, this time a little weaker one. "Then how do you want me to talk? Do you expect me to song a sweet lullaby for you after seeing all those...god!!!' she cries closing her eyes with her palm again. "Roli...what's wrong baby? What did you see? I can't get anything...' says Sid as he is in a state of utter confusion. "Fine...so you want to know what's wrong...Okay...wait...' she says and pulls out his phone from his pocket. "Roli!!' Sid begins confused as Roli opens his phone and types something on YouTube. "What's this???' she asks him sternly as she plays the video that had led her to heartbreak a while ago. Sid is obviously lot more confused with this now. "This is a photoshoot...the latest one featuring me and Lara...' he explains not knowing what's wrong with her. "ya...a photoshoot...but now can you comment on the extreme closeness in these pictures?' asks her as she grabs his shirt in agony. Sid stands all confused; yet to understand the actual gravity of the situation..
