Sahil's POV
" Hey, beautiful !!! Good morning..." I heard someone say that, coming towards us. Manu looked at him and smiled.
I turned to see who was the one to get a smile from my wife. How dare he call her beautiful?
My blood started boiling the moment I saw the man. It was that tailor...
He came near us and hugged her. I literally clenched my fist.
" You are looking even more beautiful today. Come let's go and start the day. " He said to her.
She smiled and nodded and then looked at me. He also looked at me then.
Imagine, he saw her but not this 6'2" tall, broad, muscular man standing right beside her.
" Oh Mr Malhotra, right? " He asked and I just nodded.
" The groom or his twin? "
" I am Sahil Malhotra, the groom's twin. "
" Oh, ok... Nice meeting you again. So what brings you here, Mr Malhotra ?"
" Nothing he was just going... " Manu said too quickly.
" No, I came to spend the day with her. She forgot to tell me that she was going to be busy today. But I am totally free as I shifted my work to be with her. Now she wants me to go back, while, I want to stay by her or my whole day would be wasted and I would be bored. "
" Sahil please go away... " she said.
" How can I go dear... But I promise I will not disturb you in your work. "
" Sahil... You can't stay here. "
" I can, I am absolutely free. "
" I have a hell lot of work. "
" I want to see you working. "
" Wait... What is the problem beautiful?? He can come and watch you work. " he said.
" No Mohit... You don't understand. "
" Then make me understand..." He said with his eyebrows raised.
" Ughhh... Fine... come, but don't interfere and keep your mouth shut. " She was looking so cute getting irritated.
I could not leave her with him.
" Yes ma'am. " I grinned at her. But I was irritated with the fact that she agreed with him but not with me.
I followed both of them inside.
So she works with that idiot.
We went inside and another man and girl greeted them both. The man took the stuff from her.
" Have they come, Harry? " She asked and he nodded saying Kabir is here.
" Sonia is everything ready? "
" Yes ma'am "
She got in a professional mode and went inside.
" So, Mr Malhotra, what are you doing here? " Mohit asked me.
" Here means? "
" In Delhi... "
" I live in Delhi, just started a business in Chandigarh so shifted there for a few months. "
" Oh ok... So you are on a vacation or work? "
" I have some personal work. " I said in a voice that screamed, that it is none of your business.
" Ok... So have you ever thought about modelling?? "
" What ?? No... Why are you asking? "
" No, you have such an amazing personality. A great body and handsome face... just like a model and you seemed to be too interested in Manyata's work. So I thought... "
" No, I am better off as a businessman. Where has she gone??"
" To check the outfits the models are supposed to wear. "
" Oh ok.." I said and just then she came back and checked the lights.
Just then a man dressed in traditional wear came and went towards Manyata with his arms opened.
He hugged her and said, " Hey beautiful !!! Good morning. Today is going to be a wonderful day as I get to spend some time with you. "
What?? spend some time with her... Come spend some time with me instead... I will break a few bones of yours.
She just shook her head and smiled.
" Can we go for dinner after the photoshoot? " That man said with a flirting smile.
He asked her to come for dinner?? Does he has a death wish??
" No... "
Thank God...
" They are flirting with her in front of you and you are smiling. You call yourself her friend?
" Who ?? Kabir and Wasim? They do it every time they meet her... Nothing serious..."
" Nothing serious ?? But still, they are not supposed to do it. "
" Relax man... Why are you so worked up?? She knows how to handle them. She works with topmost hot models and actors. This is glamour world... She is used to of it. She is good at handling any kind of flirting. "
But I am not from glamour world and I will break every single bone in your bodies for hitting on my wife.
Oh !! That is the reason my charm does not work on her...
" But still, she is your friend, you should stop them."
" Trust me they know their limit, they never crossed it. Or I would have spoilt their career by now. They can't mess with me. "
I looked at him he was still looking at her.
Was he in love with her?? I have to take care of all this.
" What exactly is going on? I mean why did you follow her here to my office?? "
" That's none of your business,
Mr Paul. "
I said glaring at them.
" Yeah, of course, you are her family friend. But somehow you both don't seem to be so friendly. "
" My relationship with her, should not be your concern. " I said.
" Well said... I should just be concerned about my relationship. And you can see how close we are. " he said and smiled.
I saw that she was clicking pictures continuously. She went near that model to tell him to change his pose, she touched his chin and shifted his face to get the desired angle. She clicked some more pictures and asked him to change into the next outfit.
" Harry please send Wasim if he is ready. " She said to another man authoritatively and he nodded.
" Wait, Harry. Please get coffee and some refreshments for us. "
" No Mohit. I need to finish this. "
" Not before you eat... "
" I am not hungry, I had my Breakfast. You have it. "
" Then have a coffee break. "
She stomped her foot but came towards us.
I was getting very uncomfortable to see how close they were.
