His Stolen Heart

Chapter 14

We dream about many things sometimes with closed eyes sometimes with open eyes. But that doesn't matter, what matter is that how many we can fulfil of those.

Mehak's pov

It's the second day of shooting and I'm on time.

Today I have only solo scenes to do the parts Pihu mam shooted..

Kiaan isn't here today. Maybe because he doesn't have a shot.

It really felt like a dream. The man of my dreams is doing a film with me. I can touch him, see him talk with him and when he takes my name I just feel like....

"Mehak focuses on what I'm saying." director sir said and I look at him

God! I again zoned out while he was explaining the scene to me.

"sorry sir," I said as its my fault

He sighed and again explained to me the scene.

I understand it and tell him I'm ready.

In two takes I did the shot perfectly.

I don't know but I'm missing kiaan.

Yesterday he was with me so the shoot passed fast but today I'm feeling bored.

I have met few other my Co actors whom I have worked as make up artists as well.

And they remember me and was shocked to see me here.

Well you don't see your make up artist as a film's main lead daily now do you?

So I can't blame them.

The day passed away with my getting scolded because of mistakes I'm doing and the director is correcting me.

I go back to my home. We haven't shifted from here yet. I will need a day off to shift. And after a few days I will get it.

Ma is happy to see me happy and Manu is happy to shift into a new house.

The house is really big and beautiful. Like our dream house.

I didn't do any work as ma didn't let me.

Now I have to take care of myself more, no scratches on my skin or face.

20 days passed like this and I got habitual of everything.

All Co actors are good except one Natasha. She is playing Jagruti's friend's character but in reality she hates me.

I don't know why but she can't be civil with me. Always find ways to taunt me or embarrass me.

I didn't mind her much because I have handled this kind of person before as well.

Shruti is definitely a great help and friend.

We have formed a bond quickly. And I'm glad I did.

I got a day off as well to shift all thanks to kiaan.

We did a small puja and shifted there.

All the rooms are well furnished.

This is too much to be honest who does this much to a new actress? I know he is a producer as well and is loaded but giving a well furnished house with a car is……

I sighed at my thoughts and decided to talk about this to him.

Currently I'm standing outside of his vanity.

Taking a deep breath I knocked on the door.

"come in" he replied

I entered and saw him reading the next shot script.

"Do you want to tell me something?" He asked me

"Yes I do." I replied

"then say it already what are you waiting for?" he asked looking at me

"why did you give me a well furnished house?" I blurted out directly

Way to go Mehak! You just insulted him openly.

"oh so that's the matter. I did nothing new to Mehak. In the past all new actresses who worked for us were given this opportunity. Even pihu as well. If you know her well then you know that she is also from a poor economic background. But she is in this industry with her work. "Kiaan replied

And I felt like a fool in front of him. God why I just asked it?

" don't feel embarrassed, Mehak . I understand your dilemma. It's good that you asked whatever doubts you have." He replied with a smile

" are you this generous? I mean all the tabloids and media say something totally different about you. And after watching you for these days I can see the difference between the reel and real person. "I again asked a stupid question

" The media and tabloids haven't lied about anything. Yeah they do extravagant things but it's true at a point. Bina Aag ke dhua nahi uthta hai madam (There's no smoke without fire). "He replied with a smile but that smile didn't reach his eyes

I guess I should not have asked it. Stupid Mehak.

" That is also me and This is also me time changed me when i understand the value of life. Anyways you will know me well until the end of the movie." He said with a wink

"OK then I should leave now sorry to bother you by asking unnecessary questions." I apologise to him

"it's ok Mehak you can ask your doubts.. After all you're my co-worker and it's my duty to answer your questions." He replied and I nodded

I left from his vanity and got ready for my shot. I did it without taking any extra take.

Director sir is happy with my progress.

" kiaan it seems she is more confident around you because when she does any single shot or any other person it takes her many takes to be done with it and when ever she is with you she does it in one take." director sir said and my cheeks blazed in embarrassment

What will he think about me?

" it's my charm that girls feel confident to work with me. Nothing to worry about "he joked and I blushed more

Director sir's phone rang and he left from there.

" don't be too full of yourself bhai. "I head Kavya's voice

" says the one who is too egoistic about her own self. "Kiaan mocked

" Anyways who wants to talk to you I came here to see Mehak. I had heard many things about her in 3 weeks only. She is very efficient I guess." she said looking at me and I felt self conscious suddenly.

" hii Mehak. "she said

" hi, "I replied nervously

" don't be nervous I'm not a lion that will eat you alive. "she said with a laugh

" she is scared after watching your face. "Kiaan replied

They are like typical siblings..

" Anyways, I Want to invite you to my engagement party. It's after 3 weeks. Please come with your family. "Kavya said smiling

" me? "I asked her a little shocked

" yeah why? "she asked

" I mean how can I? I.. "I couldn't find correct words

" I know what you're trying to say but now be habitual of it. My brother is going to launch you a new face to the film industry. And here you have to be habitual of these things. Don't feel nervous or self conscious the more you feel vulnerable the more they take your advantage. So be strong and bold. "she said and I can't help but smile

" I will surely join with my family." I replied confidently

" that's the spirit girl. And yup be ready because the replacement of heroine will be announced that day only. So the media will literally fry you with their questions." she said

Ohk that's something for I need to prepare myself.

"don't scare her, Kavya." Kiaan hissed at his sister

"I'm not bhai, I'm just giving her a warning." she said with a shrug

"bhai now I need to leave my love calling me. Will meet you soon. Bye Mehak. It's nice to meet you." she said and left

"don't worry about what she said to Mehak. I will be there with you so don't worry about anything." Kiaan said and I felt an assurance in his words
