*Anitha Pov*
I smiled looking at the picture he sent two hours back but I couldn't check because of shooting at that time and he added this sad smile a few minutes back.
"Anny! We are going to have dinner together. Want to join us?" I glanced up hearing Lucky's voice and my other co-stars ready to leave with him.
"No! I have a date. Let's go another time." I said locking my phone and he nodded smiling before walking away with others.
I rushed to cha
*Prathap Pov*"Are you both sure they are ready to handle the newrestaurant?" I asked them again as I will be informing the newchefand the manager officially regarding their new responsibility."Of course! You will be there too. So, I don't think there will be any problem." Bharghav assured me while Deepak continued to stare at his feet."Deepak?" I called him frowning and he sighed before glancing up to stare at me."I am not worried about her but I am worried about myself. How
*Anitha Pov*When I reached downstairs thinking the reporters must have left already but in turn, found them surrounding Prathap again and his Dad is standing with him.He didn't give up yet? I thought taking a step forward but stopped immediately hearing Prathap's words."We want to continue to be engaged but my Father is against our relationship like from the beginning and we decided to wait until he accepts us before getting engaged again." I covered my mouth hearing his words while he calmly walked away after saying that and the reporters let him as their attention now turned to his father.That is definitely the third strike for sure. I shook my head befo
"Why are you both drinking like this when it is my engagement party?" Shrishti asked looking at her two best friends Vikranth and Prathap."How can you just marry someone you met recently?" Prathap asked looking at her with drowsy eyes while Vikranth laughed."It is not that difficult to marry someone you don't know, Prathap." Vikranth confirmed while taking out his phone and called someone.Shrishti sighed sitting back but got startled with her phone ringing and found it is her Dad who finally decided to call her after being mad for the past one month."I need to leave guys. My Dad wants to meet me. Did you call someone to pick you guys?" she asked looking at Vikranth who gave a nod while still drinking another glass.
*Prathap Pov*Ugh! This is child abuse for sure and maybe I can try to sue him for forcing me to sit here and work on something I am not interested in.It's been three years and I am already 27 but he is still insisting on me to continue working here. I am 27 for god's sake and I shouldn't be doing all this."Sir! You have a meeting scheduled within an hour." I turned my seat to look at my pitiful secretary.Maybe even he can sue me along with my Dad for forcing him to work for me like this. I sighed glancing at the file he placed near my sight."Do you know what import
*Prathap Pov*"Where did you got that thought from?" Vikranth asked looking at me while I still stared at them in shock even though they recovered from it."He must have gone mad. Let's sit first before discussing the matter." Shrishti mumbled while gesturing them but they continued to stand there."They both have been meeting every day and that too at his cabin alone. He is even paying penalty for her so that she can join his entertainment company. Don't you think they are interested in each other?" I asked looking at Shrishti and she frowned hearing those words."They both will become a couple eventually for sure." I assured he
*Anitha Pov*I slowly opened my eyes hearing a sound feeling well-rested but had to open them wider when I found a face closer to mine making me realize the place I just slept."Prathap!" I stiffened hearing an unfamiliar tone while feeling scared because of the situation I am in right now.Who is it? Oh god! How can I get into a situation like this? I shouldn't have let my sleep win over me for sure otherwise, I wouldn't have been in this situation.However, before I could react or shift away, he mumbled, "What is it?"Then he slowly opened his eyes but his viewpoint is over my shoulder and then his eyes shi
*Prathap Pov*"Wow! Is she the one going to be your fiancé?" Shrishti asked looking at me after the Vikranth returned to the cabin."It is just a fake scheme our Dad's devised which I am not going to follow." I replied not liking the fact that she is calling her my Fiance."I think you shouldn't. Did you see how rude she was to you and that too before Vikranth because of whom she got a chance as far as I remember from that day. I felt bad for her that day but I guess there was no need to." She mumbled shaking her head."Maybe she actually plotted all this." She added and I slowly nodded but after hearing her explanation I don't think I can think like th
*Anitha Pov*He stared at my face before shifting his eyes to look at my hand on his shoulder and again turned to see my face but this time with a frown instead of a surprised look like earlier."You can remove this hand before we have that small talk." He commented which I completely ignored while trying to get the words I feel I should clear before starting to hate him and myself for liking him for two years straight."Are you a celebrity? Or a huge public figure?" I asked and his expression turned into confusion after hearing that question."Oh right! It's me! I am the celebrity here and you can call a small public figure for now. Then, why are you acting a

*Anitha Pov*I found him separating the beds when I walked out of the washroom after freshening up. He smiled looking at me before sitting on the bed he is going to sleep on."You have an appointing tomorrow morning, right?" he asked checking his phone while I calmly walked to the other bed and sat on it."Yeah!" I mumbled staring at him and he nodded before putting his phone away yawning."Today was really hectic. You must be tired with all the talking earlier too." I nodded at his words frowning."Prathap!" I finally called him when he was about to lie down.
*Prathap Pov*"I specifically mentioned to both of you to not let me have any work for today evening. You guys forgot that I need to attend the premiere?" I asked Deepak frowning while checking the dish Bharghav prepared just now which caused a problem for the customer."We will manage this matter. You just go!" he mumbled from the back while I ignored his words tasting a bite of it."Didn't the customer mention any kind of allergic reactions he could have?" I asked standing up."No! We ask everyone to specify any such conditions and we did the same but he didn't say anything." Deepak mumbled."The staff that
*Prathap Pov*Seriously! How many times it's already been? I am finally holding her and she is finally not pushing me away.But they just had to ruin this moment whoever they are. I reluctantly let her go when she tapped my shoulders and reluctantly let her walk towards the door to open it.I am going to fire that person for sure! With that thought, I stood up without getting hit again but found Manoj standing there with a worried expression."I got a call from Keerthi. She got contractions and is getting transferred to thehospital." He rushed the words.
*Prathap Pov*"This is what you mean by staying beside you?" I asked looking at her and she nodded arranging the blanket as if it is a natural thing to do right now.I turned to look at the bed... beds actually as she just separated the beds leaving a lot of space between them.When she walked away to her room after finishinglunch, I expected her to be asleep by the time I come here as a way of removing the awkwardness she must be feeling with this.I know the moment she asked me to be there beside her, she regretted it but I am shameless enough to ignore that fact and take
*Prathap Pov*'All the best!' after sending the message to her as today is her meeting the cast after getting another role and that too again a lead one, I turned to glance at Bharghav."Are you really busy?" I asked him frowning."Yes! I need you to handle thelunchalong with me." He replied not even looking at me and gestured to the souschefregarding the dish he wants him to prepare."Okay! I will just follow your orders. I don't want to take back the role of head
*Anitha Pov*"I said I am fine, Kanika. You can't continue to cancel your classes for my sake. Didn't you say that they will come to an end soon? So, just concentrate on them." I said turning away from the other patients."But you should have told me that you will be going early today..." I cut her off calling her name before taking a deepbreath."Didn't you say that you will make me your model for your clothes? For that, you should learn everything properly and not miss those classes again. I will be fine." I assured her before cutting the call and turned back to sit properly on the chair.
