"I never have seen you this nervous. Are you this intimated to cook in front of Anny?" Deepak asked standing beside me as I continued to stare at the corridor from my cabin and I kept the door open to know that she is here the moment she enters the place.
Nervous? To cook? Of course not! I am just checking whether she will come or not. What if she decides to not after thinking about yesterday's incidents again?
"I am not nervous." I replied still standing in the same position and continued to lean to the table behind me.
"Right! By this time you would have gone to c
*Prathap Pov*"You are feeling sleepy." She mumbled when I walked out of the washroom after a bath with hotwaterthat made me so relax."I think so!" I said smiling at her while controlling my yawns and sat beside her on the bed where she is sitting down right now while staring at me.She smiled taking hold of my hand and started slowly massaging my palm along with the fingers and I stared at her as she is concentrating seriously on my hands.Why was I so stupid to not realize her feelings that day when she smiled so brightly at me and just connected with Vikranth?
*Prathap Pov*I opened my eyes hearing the alarm for the second time and found her sleeping face lying beside mine.I don't know how can she be this comfortable with me but yesterday night I thought I am watching some magazine cover or something instead of her just casually walking towards the bed from the washroom.Does she really wear these types generally or is it just to tease me? But if it is really for every day then every time I think about this will be nothing short of a heart attack as even though she is fully covered, I still remember her stance from the night.I shifted my eyes away from her face to the collarbone which is not at all covered because
*Anitha Pov*"Why are you already back?" His manager asked the moment Prathap entered therestaurantcompound and turned to reach the stairs instead of entering therestaurantbut we both stopped when he rushed towards us."I made sure to get thedessertdelivered and it is also packed properly. Was something wrong with it?" He added and I can see Prathap's hands fisting when he brought out thedesse
*Anitha Pov*"No!" I wish I can open my eyes right now to give her a weird look with the way she didn't even pause before giving me that answer."Why? Why are you so against it? I am talking about it from yesterday." I pointed out and now had to keep quiet as they started applying the lipstick after finishing the eyebrow makeup."This is not the place for us to have this discussion. First, finish this streaming, and let's go back to your place." She ordered and I can hear her stepping out of the Prathap's cabin which he gave us so that I can get a bit ready for the live we are going to do for the dishes hischefis going t
*Prathap Pov*Damn it! I thought staring at thecarthat is leaving thehousecompound while remembering her expression when she passed us. It was... was completely blank just like the one the person beside me is showing for sure.I have seen that look many times on Vikranth's wife's face but never tried to know the reason behind it. I turned to stare at her and found her staring back at me with the same look."I didn't mean it like that. Will she listen to me if I say that?" I asked to which she turned around to walk back inside but
*Anitha Pov*"Thank god! You are here on time. Why did you switch off your phone the day before yesterday and even sent that cryptic message saying that you will contact me first if you need anything and to not disturb you." Keerthi asked while I sat on the chair to get my make-up done before changing my attire for the first shooting."What happened?" She continued frowning and I sighed gesturing the artist to start doing her work."Anitha!" She used my real name instead of the stage name and I finally shifted my eyes to look at her."What happened? I was this inch away from getting seduced by..." she covered my mouth with her hand before I can continue and ga
*Anitha Pov*"Do you remember what I said yesterday?" Keerthi asked after I finished the scenes for the morning shoot and they are shooting for other characters now."Yes! I shouldn't think much about their attitude." I replied while taking thewaterbottle from her hand.As we expected, there are a few people on the set who is giving me the looks that show their stand on the recent scandal. We never expected everyone to believe me and it is better if I keep that I mind and don't take their words or actions to heart."Good! It looks like you felt nervous while shooting."
*Prathap Pov*"What is it?" I asked with my eyes closed after lifting the phone from the side table only to hear Deepak's hurried tone."Are you okay? I am ringing the bell for the past ten minutes but you are not opening the door." Deepak asked and I frowned opening my eyes.I shifted my phone away from my ear tocheckthe time only to feel the drowsiness leave completely."Why are you calling now?" I asked raising my voice as it is time for us to open therestaurantand I am
