Choices
2 days later,
Shreya's POV:
I haven't seen Zayn nor Harry in the last two days.Liam has been popping in and out every now and then.I have been solely hanging out with Louis and Niall.The director of the film that Ranveer talked about spoke to me over the phone.The story was so epic and I loved the way he told me that he was going to direct.But still I needed an opinion from someone so I asked.
"Niall! Louis!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.
"What?" They asked one by one padding into the living room.
"Take your seats,please!" I pointed to the couch across me as I shifted into the Indian sitting style.
"What is it,lass?" Louis asked plopping on the couch along with Niall.
"Well,when I went to India recently along with Zayn,I met a guy" I started.
"Don't tell me you like him!" Niall gasped holding his chest.
"No" I yelled throwing a pillow at him which he blocked and tossed it away.
"Let her speak,Nialler" Louis scolded Niall.
"I met him again at the club on that day and we met again on the following day's morning.He proposed a bollywood film proposal to me.He and the director wants me to play the female lead." I told them.
"That's a good opportunity.When does the shooting start?" Louis asked me,his eyes filled with excitement.
"It starts at the end of march and he will be around till Feb" I replied.
"So you said yes?" Niall asked leaning forward.
"Not yet,that's what I wanted to talk about.I am confused,guys.I like the plot and the way it is going to be directed but I signed a contract and I am a lyricist" I ranted it out.
"Niall,get me a glass of water" Louis told him.
Niall poured a glass of water from the jug on the coffee-table and passed it to Louis which Louis handed to me.
"Drink this first" He instructed me with a smile.I drank obediently.
"Do you want to do it?" He asked.
"But the contract?" I asked.
"Yes or No, Shre?" Louis asked again.
"Yes" I answered quietly.
"Then go to Simon and talk about it. You're a lyricist and you can continue to be a lyricist even when you're away and can visit us every now and then.Planes exist for a reason,you know.Now,go talk to Simon!" He ruffled my hair.
"Aaahh! You're so wise,Louis! Thank you!" I chimed putting my arms around him.
"Group hug" Niall chanted throwing his arms around us.We laughed as we pulled apart.
"Okay then,I will go see uncle Si.Do you guys want to join?" I asked them as I walked to the stairs.
"Nah,we have more important stuff" Niall replied.
"Like what?" I asked them spinning on my heels to face them.
"Like eating,sleeping and watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S" Louis shrugged.
Typical days
I rolled my eyes and ran up the stairs to my room.I showered and changed into a pair of brown pants and tucked in a white shirt.I combed my hair and let it down.I grabbed my belongings and stepped into my loafers as I made my way out of the room.I yelled bye to both the humans watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S and left the house.

"Hello Cecil! Is uncle Si free?" I asked the receptionist.
"He is free for another thirty minutes" She replied looking up from her notebook.
"Okay then,thank you" I blew her a kiss and turned.
BAM!I hit somebody and fell on my arse.Everything was a blur as somebody helped me up.
"I am sorry" I start to say closing my eyes trying to get rid of the dizziness.It was like as if I had hit a wall.
"It's okay" A all too familiar voice replied.
I opened my eyes quickly and there he stood,his green eyes starring at me,his curls held back with a bandanna,his lips quivering as they curve up and down.I shrug out of his arms and turned walking as fast as possible.The feel of his skin against mine lingered.The feel of being home and safe that I had missed for so long.The feel of being in the arms of the loved one.My body craved to be in his arms but I didn't want to.The image of him and Taylor kissing was still stuck to my memory.
"Hey sweetheart" A voice called me.
It was Simon.
"Hello uncle Si,I was about to come see you" I replied with a smile walking to him.
"Come then,let's go to my office" He replied back leading the way.
Uncle Si went and sat on his chair and I took the on of the chairs before his table.He arranged his things on the table and folded his arms on it.
"Tell me,Shreya. What is it that you wanted to talk about?" He asked.
"Well uncle Si" I started when he cut me.
"Shreya,Harry dropped in earlier and he showed me some lyrics of a song that he was working on. Have a look" He passed his phone to me.
"Sure" I said taking his phone.
"I want to write you a song
One that's beautiful as you are sweet
With just a hint of pain
For the feeling that I get when you are gone
I want to write you a song"
I read with no emotion.
"Beautiful,right? I can already picture the next album of the boys.It is going to be more bigger" Uncle Si boasted with pride.
"I wanted to talk about that,Uncle Si" I told him.
"Do you have a song too?" He asked me.
"No" I replied quietly.
"Then?" He asked.
"I got a movie proposal from an Indian film director" I broke the news to him.
"You're going to go write a song for them?" He yelled.
"No No,It is a proposal to play the female lead of the film" I told him.
"Have you accepted it?" He asked with a frown.
"Not yet,uncle. I signed as a lyricist to you and my loyalty as a lyricist will always remain with you.If you agree,I will go play the lead role if not,I wouldn't. But even if I am far I will continue to pen songs for you" I told him.
"I need some time to think about this,Shreya.Can we talk about it tomorrow?" He asked running his hand through his hair.
"Sure,Uncle Si" I smiled and walked to the door.Before I walked out of the room I turned to him again.
"Whatever is your decision,I will be happy with it,uncle" I told him and left the place.
