Shivaay smiles blushing while Annika does the same..

Next morning was a hectic one for both shivika..

Shivaay had few ad shoots and few he had signed a new film with director Nitish tiwari and his co-star was Malini Rastogi
(it's a random name you can imagine anyone). It was a College love story. And the heroine was also quite a popular name.
Shivaay had this rule that he won't be doing any liplock scene, he was following his Idol SRK..

He idolize SRK, srk is his guide and his mentor. Not only that SRK had openly said that Shivaay was like his younger brother which was just after shivaay's first film.

Shivaay wanted his film to be a family one making sure that even the romantic scene doesn't creat any sort of embarrassment, but at times he couldn't help.
But overall his films were a family entertainer, like action for action lovers, humour for comedy lovers, emotions for the people who connect to emotions and last but not the least romance!

He along with karthik and Ranbir went to Manish Malhotra for the last drill.

Annika- but sir last moment me ye hogaya tho abb kya kare hum?

Manish- I didn't expect this from sitara! This is ridiculous?

Shivaay- hey Manish what's wrong buddy?

Manish- sitara was supposed to be our showstopper and she had promised to attend it. Now she has refused all of a sudden.

Karthik- this is so unprofessional..

Shivaay- so what's the worry Manish, tum bulaoge tho koi bhi ayega

Manish- that's right Shivaay but in a sudden note it's literally impossible and the fitting of the dress, we can't possibly change it over night. I'm literally In the pickle!

Ranbir- ani why don't you be the show stopper

Everyone looked at Annika while Annika looked shocked!

Annika- kya me? Sir me designer hu, model nahi. And muje tho kuch ata bhi nahi!

Manish- but you were helping the modles with the drill weren't you ani? So you know it and the dresses will perfectly suit you

Annika- sir ye app kya bol rahe hai! Tomorrow the media house, so many celebrities and businessmen would be present. And I'm totally inexperienced..
I'll end up embarrassing you and myself tooo

Manish- but Annika I trust you baby, I know you can definitely do it.. And being the prettiest one you are I'm definitely sure that sitara will be burning out!

Annika wasn't still sure if she could do it or not.

Shivaay-so Annika let me drop you home

Annika- nahi Shivaay it's okay, I have my scooty

Shivaay- oh come on you can't possibly refuse Shivaay singh oberoi you no, that's an unsaid rule

Annika smiled at his stupid talk. Shivaay assured Manish that Annika will surely accept his offer on being the show stopper.

Karthik and Ranbir were thanked for the idea.

Shivaay left with Annika.
Annika was fiddling with her fingers, she wasn't sure if she should do.

Shivaay halted the car near beach area.

Annika didn't realise that the car had stopped.

Shivaay- Anu!

Annika- ha ghar agaya! Oh wait where are we

Shivaay- come out

Annika- par Shivaay we might get clicked!?

Shivaay- no we won't, it's too calm here and I'm here na come out.

He got out and gave his hands for Annika. She gave in.

They sat on the shore seeing the waves.

Annika- app muje yaha kyu lekar aye?

Shivaay- pata hai Annika, my dad Is a big producer. But even he started from scratch. He had no god father in the industry yet he earned what he is. And when I was offered my first film I was very nervous, I was afraid that I'll end up spoiling dad's name, embarrass him. Dad brought me here that night.
He told me ki, wakt na nadhi ki tarha. Hum ek baar jis pani ko haat lagate hai usko dubara nahi chu sakte. Because it keeps flowing. So apni life ki har second apne liye jiyo, pure kushi aur self-confidence ke saath.

Annika smiled as she noticed that the great actor, singer Shivaay Singh Oberoi was so down to earth. Just like any normal one without attitude problem. She knew that he was talking to give her self-confidence, it was like prep talk.

He turned to her and found her looking at him foundly..

There eyes met and got locked.

The soft music of the waves, the cold breeze made her hairs fall on her face blocking his view.

He pushed her hairs behind her ears not wanting anything to disturb him from viewing her.

The time just freezed in there eye lock...

Shivika will be walking on the ramp together now.

Hopefully you guys liked it 🥺..

Take care
Lots of love
Parimala
