"- Look at my eyes, Annika... say it straight into my eyes... I SAID SAY IT STRAIGHT INTO MY EYES ANNIKA!"
"- I HATE YOU! ha I said it, Shivaay... I HATE YOU"
*AAAND CUT! ... Superb guys... you were superb*
They were still looking to each other eyes unware of the people around them buzy preparing next shoot, a single heavy tear rolls down from her reddened beautiful eyes only to be crashed by his thumb on her cheek... the contact of his hand on her skin makes her shiver, seeing him make a step towards her, she steps back escaping his hand's reach and before he could stop her, she runs away her tears refusing to obey her more...she reaches her room panting and before she could even understand he was her, crashing her body against the wall his hands grabbing her face in his palms his lips possessing hers furiously...
"- don't ... please..."
His plea breaking their kiss makes cry even more seeing his face drowned by tears too, his forehead against hers, they breath each other saans vainly trying to calm their turmoiled emotions, he wipes her eyes adding:
"-I can't bear it, please..."
"- you know that I have to... you know..."
"-bhaiya ji!"
Khanna's voice behind the closed door startles them both... the young guy knocks again saying:
"- bhaiya ji, it's bhabi ji... she just arrived on sets"
