Radhika looked over my shoulder at Vikram who was gazing Vivaan. He had a victorious smirk on his face. It was all well planned and she was a fool to believe him. She moved toward Vivaan but he already made his way towards his car.

She trotted and stood before him. "Please listen to me. I can explain it."

"What is there to explain? I saw what I had to." Said he is an extremely cold voice.

"You are misinterpreting." She tried to reason.

"I am not. Don't lie Radhika. Not to me but to yourself. It's you who is whoring around shamelessly. Guess you have a perfect partner for tonight. I don't think it is good to disturb you both. Have a good day ahead and yeah try to keep this matter away from media as much as possible." Saying it, he walked passed her.

"Are you jealous?"

"Unlike you. I care about my family reputation. I don't care what you do and with whom. But whom, I am saying. First the business partnership and this photoshoot. Consider someone a fool, but I am not. If the media smell it, they will not miss a second to raise their fingers on your growing affection towards that Rathod. Then keep giving your shitty explanation to the whole world." He again tried went away but she holds his wrist.

"Where are you going?"

"Continue your Raasleela with him. Who am I to object or disturb."

"Don't go...we need you...I need you..." Radhika very slowly confessed the last part.

On the other hand, Tuval witnessed their heated argument from afar and felt guilty for being one of the reasons behind it. Luckily they were at a distance and nobody could hear them.

What irritated her more was Vikram piercing gaze at the couple. she knew he also left no stone unturned to make this happen.

She moved toward the pair in between their talk with a bright smile and a voice at it's loudest "Oh Vivaan dearest, I thought I was going to die without seeing you. Where were you these days?" They embraced each other in a friendly hug.

"Busy with office work."

"Yeah, that was the same excuse you gave this morning. I wonder what brings you here then." She with a playful grin look at Radhika.

"Do you know, dear?"

Radhika shrugged her shoulders and shook her head.

"Ahh naughty boy.." she hit his chest with her feathery hand fan and continued, "Couldn't remain so far from your wife. Oh God, it is 15 hrs of our arrival here, and you came all the way along to see your beloved... Awww such passionate love."

Radhika pursued her lips from laughing at Tuval's talk. He and missing her. Impossible. But she also doubted his agenda for this sudden visit. Meanwhile, Vivaan tried to speak but Tuval cut him off.

"By the way, why did you reject my offer this morning? You could have been at his place. Tried to surprise us, huh." She said with a playfully smirk.

"Anyway, no damage is done that can't be amended. You will be also our model for the rest of the day. Consider it as your punishment."

"But, Tuval..."

"Now, no excuse will not work since you are here you will have to help me."

She called a junior manager and summoned," Take them to another location, I choose at the river's bank with half of our team."

"Tuval, how will you manage then.?"

"Don't worry. With the two couples, we will easily complete the photoshoot before evening." Radhika half-heartedly nodded at her assurance.

This was only in her hand to send them alone somewhere for reconciliation and save them from some Evil Eyes.

---------------------------------------------

A photographer with a closed eye and looking toward the pair through the lens, in between guiding their postures required for photos.

"Sir, keep your hand on her waist and look into her eyes."

"Smile looking at each other."

"Come a bit more closely."

The photographer couldn't understand was the nervousness between them was due to standing in front of the camera or being with each other. However, he didn't speak his mind. Around one hour was waited but he couldn't make a perfect shot.

If it was going to be speed, be doubted this project could get complete anytime soon. He definitely needed a break now. He felt exhausted.

"Someone go and adjust their dresses. See the necklace and maangtikka are also displaced."

Two assistants beside him curtly nodded and ran to their side. Meanwhile, the photographer also approached them and discussed the issue.

"We will try." She continued," Let us have a short break" Everyone agreed as it was already going to be afternoon and everyone was on the work field since 8 0'clock in the morning. Also not to forget the tiredness due to travelling.

As soon as they were left alone. Radhika initiated the talk.

"I have seen your photos of the business magazines. So, I can say these things are not new for you. Then why is this nervousness."

"It's nothing." He curtly shook his head and looked another way. He didn't want to mention that he felt nervous around her and in her proximity.

"Say Vivaan if you want to exceed the shooting date and of course our time here with your drama. Then I must say you have a very wrong timing." She tried to lighten the mood.

"Till now, I get one thing. You give yourself so much credit for nothing." He grimaced.

"Huh says who." She arrogantly flipped her hair back. Before she could continue, a voice interrupted.

"Start work." The manager asked everyone to resume their respective work after their short break.

"Consider me as Sneha di. I might help" Radhika said as they returned to the desired spot of shooting. Even though it was very difficult for her as a wife to say her husband to imagine her as someone. But, she was helpless.

"Huh?" He narrowed his eyes and tried to analyse from where her name came in between. She was really strange. He stood stilled confusingly as he noticed her talking to the photographer.

She passed him a weak smile from afar and turned toward the photographer who was discussing the pocedures.

"Good. Now, Ma'am wrap your arms lightly around sir's shoulders."
.
.

"Next"
.
.

"Look at the front as a royalty. Yes, that way..."

"Sir, hold her hand."

"With care and love as if you never want her to leave your side." He snorted with a try to hold his laughter at the comment. She looked at him with a raised eyebrow. He then shrugged and looked at the front.

"Assume Sneha standing in front of you." She repeated it to him like a mantra, maybe for the fifth time now that had started to irritate him.

"Whom do you assume me as. That Rathod or some other Romeo." Jealous freak. But she ignored his comment and concentrated at the given directions.
.
.
"Next"
.
.

"Next"
.
.

"We are done. Pack up." Everyone was exhausted but thankfully they completed their part of work before the dawn.

-----------------------------------------------

They returned to the prior location where they left her half team. And as a surprise, they found tents around and other members were enjoying around the bonfire. They had already completed their work and had been waiting for another half of the team to show up.

"Tuval we should return. Vivaan and Mr Rathod are also here. They came on our insist but they will definitely have their work pending in their offices. It will not look good if we occupy them more." She requested as it could turn awkward with Vivaan and Vikram being rivals at the same place.

"I have no problem sweetheart. If someone else has any trouble, they should heartedly shoo away." I could see Vivaan's fisted palm and his angry face. This guy surely desired a punch on his ugly face. If he didn't stop, no one could help him with his bruised face.

"Moreover, It was Vikram who gave the idea of camping." Interrupted Tuval. Well surprising, Radhika thought.

She shrugged and turned towards Vivaan. "If you want, you can go home. I will feel more ashamed for stopping you again your will, just because of selfishness." She said but highly doubted, he even heard her out because he's burning gaze was fixed with Vikram's.

Where were those who used to say lovers could only share their talks through eyes as here two enemies were? It seemed one drastic step and both will be at each other's throat.

Vivaan clenched his jaws in anger. He removed his blazer in a shift and passed it to Radhika. Till when Radhika could get over the shock and understand what was happening, he pulled her towards him, securing his arm around her waist possessively. He passed everyone a bright but fake smile.

"Count me in." He looked at Vikram with a mean smile. Meanwhile, he was also no less in showing his disagreement with the greatest scowl that could have been seen in the man's history.

And it didn't go unnoticed by all. It seemed to offer these two gentlemen to join for camping was wrong. Tuval, Norah and Radhika passed each other a nervous smile in between.

It was definitely going to be a long but memorable night.

However, Tuval decided to intertwine in that heated moment. "Guys, we are here to enjoy. And here every one is silent as if it is someone's funeral. Come on cheer up." Continued She.

"Let' play a game. Suggest any?.... You know what.... don't...We will play Truth & Dare." She declared without considering others opinion.

"Come on handsome. Join us." Vivaan nodded and took a seat opposite Vikram. In between, not for a second, he left a chance to distance himself from Radhika. His arm wrapped around her waist securely was a live example.

The intimacy between them was sprouted because of his jealousy, but she didn't mind as she was getting what she carved for so long from his husband. She enjoyed every bit of the attention, she received that night.

Tuval took a half-filled water bottle and rotated it. It stopped at Norah. She sighed in disappointed to be the first.

"Truth." She said without thinking for a second.

"I will ask," Tuval said the excitement and dramatically rubbed her palms with a mischievous shine in her eyes. Norah doubted her actions.

"Among all the male population present here, whom you find the most handsome." Norah gasped as soon as she heard.

"Tuval, It's very personal." She tugged her fringe behind her ear.

"Don't be a killjoy. If it is Vivaan, Don't mind Radhika will not do anything. I promise." She winked at Radhika in between.

"Of course, until you come office tomorrow." She stated.

"It is Rathod Ji." Her answer gained howl from the crew members. Since Vikram was adjacent to her, she immediately turned her other side to hide her blush, covering her face with palms.

"Aah, you ditch Akshay for this guy. I wonder how the half-day of photoshoot changed your love interest." Radhika teased her.

"Sweetheart, if you were here, you would have agreed to no less. That much charm I have, that every girl is smitten with my handsomeness."

"Not she." Vivaan interrupted haughtily with a tightening grip on her, telling you belonged to whom.

"You wish. But let me tell you it is just a matter of time."

"Okay, now. I will rotate." Radhika excitedly declared. This time it stopped at Aman Shree, Chandra's head manager.

With no flicker he chose dare.

"I will give... Sing a song." Norah literally jumps on her seat with surpassing excitement.

"No, it is so simple." A man winced in disapproval.

"Wait, let me spice it with a twist. You have to sing a song but in the worst tune. Sing as bad as you can" Radhika added.

"I started liking you more." Tuval winked at her and gave a flying kiss.

Aman stood on his feet and in a dramatic way, he started.
"At this grave moment, I can only remember one - my role model for the worst songs - one and only - Dhinchak Pooja."

"Paagal hoke naacho...ya nach ke Pagal ho jao.... Jaha bhi mile khatiya...tum chadar taan ke so jao.... Aare naach ke pagal....( Dance like a crazy....or go crazy of dancing.... Wherever you find bed... You sleep with covered sheet on..... Nuts of dancing. " He killed the already thousand times stabbed song by its own creator and his dance was as a cherry on the top.

"Now not only you entitled yourself as the world worst singer but also became the champion of the worst dancer," Tuval commented with a grimace.

"I feel honoured." He bowed as if she was a majesty.

Radhika looked at laughing Vivaan and her breath escaped for a second, mesmerising the beauty in front.

Vikram came forward this time and rotate the bottle and with all alignment in the stars, it stopped at Vivaan. However, Vivaan couldn't help but doubt his involvement in cheating for making the bottle tip stop at him.

Perks of being a businessman.

You had to evaluate everything especially when the person in front was your enemy.

"Dare." He said with a serous face, glaring the person infront of him.

"Dance." Norah commented with a giggle. Vivaan passed a smile at her side.

"I will if my wife graces me with her accomplishment."

The smile never left Radhika's face. Vivaan like a gentleman which he was, kneeled down, forwarding his hand. Radhika like a teenager giggled. She couldn't believe it was really happening. If was a dream, she never wanted to wake from it.

She smilingly put her hand in his and delicately took her in the centre. Soon a romantic song began. He twirled her in his arms.

They fell in step, letting the rhythm control their movements. For Radhika, all the scenery and people around them dissolved. It was her and he, alone.

Her eyes glistened, and a smile spread across her beautiful face. Everyone eyed the couple with awe except one.

Instantly, they were tagged under cute couples category. With the end of the song, the crowd howled for their kiss. Vivaan smirked, particularly looking at Vikram and pecked at her lips. Radhika couldn't help but cover her face to hide the prominent blush. People around clapped for the couple including Vikram however he couldn't help but burn with jealousy.

Suddenly, the heavenly Earth grace the nature with the shower of rain, making their plan of camping a huge flop.

They ran all around in a hurry before their commodities could get drenched and spoiled in rain. They soon packed up everything and started their half an hour journey to the resort half-heartedly.

Since it wasn't a good idea to travel back to Mumbai in this heavy rain, Vikram and Vivaan too tagged themselves to the resort.

"So, we are going to share the room tonight."

"Of course not, they shall have unoccupied rooms."

"What if someone gets to know about this arrangement. Even by any chance, no one recognises neither you nor me but what about my crew members and Vikram Ji?"

"So you both are on a first-name basis. Not much surprising, especially after hearing that rubbish endearment of his. What was that...Yes - 'sweetheart' "

"So that endearment is rubbish. Then you only suggest some extra marvellous endearment."

"I have one which suits you best - 'Surpnakha' It fits perfect. What do you think?"

"Definitely." She scoffed.

"You are jealous of Vikram, Aren't you?"

"No, of course not. Why did you ask?" He said with his guard on.

"Just observed your behaviour toward me in front of him." She gazed him and smirked. " It might be an illusion."

"It was. But you stay away from him. He is not a good person." He replied in a cold voice. Radhika rolled her eyes, taking his warning lightly.

"I need to talk."

"Say."

"Not here. Let reach the resort and get freshen up. Moreover why this hurry when we have a whole night together." She gave him a unusual creepy smile.

As Vivaan was about to turn his car to the parking lot of the resort. Radhika asked him to halt the car. She instantly unbuckled the seat belt and get out of the car. Before she closed the passenger door, she bent down a bit to have his proper vision and didn't fail to remind.

"Room no. -105."

"As if I will follow your orders."

"Try me this time."

She ran inside the resort, ignoring the hotel staff coming in her direction with two umbrellas. Vivaan rolled his eyes at her antics.

She reached the lobby area completely drenched in rain. The ladies at the reception gave her a weird look but she didn't care.

"Do you have available rooms?"

"Yes Ma'am, we.." she cut her off in between.

"You don't have." She stated with authority. The poor lady gave her a surprised look and tried to continue," But..."

"I said, being an active season for tourists, neither this resort nor others nearby."

"But, it is a dull season for tourism in monsoon." She sighed and continued.

"It is actually the same you will recite to a man named Vivaan Bharadwaj when he comes here asking for a room. Understand?"

"And why should I take your orders. You are not my boss. And it is also against my work ethics." She asked raising her eyebrow in challenge.

"But I am a guest to your resort as well as your city. Never you heard - अतिथिदेवो भव:|| (Guest is God.)"

"You are a customer."

"Then also, never you heard in Japanese - 'okyakusama wa kamisama desu' meaning the customer is a god too. It is your moral duty to help the customer to need."

"But your demand is..."

When Radhika understood, she was not going to give in to her demanding alias bossy self, she turned into an emotional mess with fake tears.

"This evening... We fought...He is very angry." She said in between her sob.
"Do you want us to get divorced? Because if we do, it will be always you whom I shall curse for not helping us to reconcile and being one of the reasons behind our breaking us apart."

"Ma'am, please..."

"Say do you really want to live up your life with this sin on your head?"

"No, please.."

"Say.. say something. Why are you silent."

"Don't cry. I will try it."

"You will.." she tiredly nodded. Radhika gave her a weak smile and turned toward her allotted room while continuously praising her improving acting skills in mind.

----------------------------------------------

By the way, I have no personal enmity with her. I used her name just for entertainment purpose. If I hurt her fans unintentionally, I apologize. (If there are any)😁😁

For the one who doesn't know one of the legends of India's cringe singer - Dhinchak pooja.

Blessed are those ears, who never heard her songs.😂😂

So, here some memes...

First man: Sir, we have found a dvd of dhinchak pooja songs near the dead body.

His boss: Then Daya, it is a suicide.
