"Your presence melts me
like the sun melts snow in april.
Slow, Steady, Gone!"

Continuation...

~~~

After few minutes,

Rajan Shahi sir arrived surprisingly and as it's Sajjad's birthday, he wanted to wish and arrange for the cake cutting along with the team to celebrate The Khan brothers. Everyone gathered around the table, Rajan sir noticed his favourites Mohsin and Shivangi standing far and not even seeing eachother.

He purposely pulled Mohsin near Shivangi and made him stand closer to her. It was the moment for both of them, both were standing close to eachother after 3 days. Whenever mohsin tries to move from his position, everytime Rajan sir would pull him and made him stand near her.

The same goes with Shivangi. Whenever she tries to stand a bit far, she was pulled by his Ammijaan and made to stand beside him. Mohsin saw this and wondered what's going on in his Ammijaan's mind. Finally the cakes arrived for both the Khan brothers.

~~~

All the while, Mohsin has been noticing how lost Shivangi looked. It kind of pinched his heart.

"Every year she used to be more active around like a child to arrange for his cake cutting. But this time? She's quiet. Quieter than usual", he melted in her presence more and more, wanting to be just closer to her.

Moreover, it looked like she had cried and the way she kept moving backwards or away from him formed a lump in his throat. He felt so helpless and tried to spur his heart to stay chill. But it didn't go unnoticed by his ammijaan.

Meanwhile, Shivangi was silently admiring him. The more and more she looked at his face, it melted her more. But she has to stay not affected by it. She doesn't want to show her hurt, but she's more than happy inside that he's back finally.

"Just a glimpse of him in a day is enough for me Bhagwan. Bas unko aese hi khush rakhiye humesha!". She always had this one quality to wish the best for him.🧡🌸

Finally, the moment for cake cutting once again came in her presence, but her absence beside him felt void.

"Why is she running away from me? Is she really mad at me?", he wondered and consoled himself.

"Koi baat nahi. Isme nahi baat kya hai? I can manofy her but the way she's standing at a distance is not acceptable. I won't repeat the same mistake, as that day".

With that he took a piece of cake and indicated Sajjad to not let Shivangi move from there!😉🙈 He fed his Abbajaan, then Sajjad, who was standing beside him and then to Shivangi in a row. She at first got startled at the sudden reaction. She was more sure that he will ignore her this time too infront of the media, but it came as a sweet surprise to her.

Her eyes met his eyes for a brief moment, which sparkled with joy and a hidden sorry, visible only to her! This was sufficient for her. And that moment was sufficient for them. It melted both their hearts with eachother's presence. He gave his heart and she accepted it. She gave her promise and he assured to protect it! Love is a mutual feeling!🌸❣️

Then the photo session took place, in which Ammijaan held Shivangi's hand to not let her go anywhere and made her stay just near her. Even Shivangi reciprocated the same addressing her as "Ammi idhar aaye" and made Mohsin's mother to stand properly beside her. Mohsin who was sitting infront heard her addressing his mom as "Ammi" so lovingly.

"This is what I call 'Acceptance'!🧡", he smiled at them inwardly. Later, they all did Bhangra dance, Rajan sir and Shivin bytes were taken. Their disturbed mind got some inner peace with eachother's presence.

After a while,

Mohsin's family and Rajan sir left the set. Everyone resumed the shooting. Keeping aside of the differences, both Mohsin and Shivangi would discuss how to enact the scenes and perform better. They never let their personal odds to enter their professional boundary.

It's not that they hate eachother, they love eachother but right at the moment, they are experiencing tough times. Well, love is nothing without misunderstandings and overcoming all these odds are the real struggle that paves way for a strong bond.

That day they didn't exchange any words, both tried to attempt calling or texting, but felt a bit scared inside for different reasons. He was very tired and so, he couldn't stay up late. The same was with her, she wanted him to rest without any disturbance.

~~~

Next day,

The shooting was scheduled outside at a resort. The new look of Mohsin was making Shivangi melts in him, but the more she holds herself, the more she wanted him near her. Mohsin secretly took a note of her every activity. What he thought and what is happening with him? He thought he would get a clear solution to his confused mind if he goes on a trip, but here he ain't able to even pick one right direction.

During the sequence, Shivangi fell down while dancing for jolly singh track. He immediately catches her from hurting herself more and makes her stand.

"You okay Shivangi?", he asked her, but her mind was already full of untold conversations. This is why she lost her balance and fell down as her concentration was completely on him. In between he tried to talk to her many times, but she kept avoiding him or the topic he started.

In Shivin's Vanity,

Tears started falling from her eyes non-stop, she couldn't handle the pain. Her heart pained more than her leg pain. "Mohsin". She kept crying repeating his name. She wants to know the reason. She wants to know the reason why he took the break. Why? Last three days have been extremely tough for her.

While on the other side of shooting, Mohsin felt like he heard her calling him and felt a tug in his heart. "Shivangi", He immediately took a break and ran in search of her. He felt something's wrong.

He entered their vanity to find the sight, which shattered him. Her broken state, completely broke him. He assumed he is the reason for her state! He moved forward to engulf her into his arms and never let go. And he did it. He hugged her tightly and felt her calm down. His mere presence was enough.

"Is it still paining?", he enquired.

"Yes! Very much. Not the leg, but the heart!", she said sobbing.

She expected him to say something, but he didn't. He just kept mum. She knows his concern for her and would never doubt that. She would never ask him anything, not just because she loves him, but she respects him more. She respects his decision. Till today they never had any disagreement, when it comes to crucial testing time.

"What are we? We are close at a moment, yet far another moment", both of them thought without breaking the hug. They felt complete and comfortable only in this possible. When they are together, they can surpass anything!

"As I promised when I was at Singapore, I will not let her slip away from me. I promise I won't let her shed tears anymore and will fix everything right from this moment", he took an oath to take care of her and not let any harm come in her way.

When they went back to the shot, he took good care of her aswell as stayed away from the media or cameras since he doesn't want the media to create anymore false news on them. Time to time, he asked her about the pain and so. Both silently took care of the other one.

Their mere presence around eachother made them stronger in understanding. Without Shivangi explain him anything, Mohsin understood by her movements. Slowly they started coming out of the bad times and moved towards the good times!✨🧡

"No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow"

Precap:

"You are so unromantic!", he declared.😟

"What? Isse zyada koi romantic nhi ho sakte hai! Bade aaye!", she replied stubbornly.😏
