RagNa Love Stories: RagNa SS: Anyone can fall in love anytime Chapter 38

Kalpana keeps walking from one place to another getting nervous "Oh god, why did I speak so rudely to her. She's gone now. No...Means what will happen to the fashion show? ...Oh Kalpi, you could not just shut up in front of that model...Why you had to argue with her? ...If this show is cancelled then what will happen to the mill, the villagers, dad's dreams, Raghav's dreams and my career? Everything will be shattered and all because of me...We struggled so much to get the outfits ready and now...Why God? Please don't do this..."

Raghav walks up the stairs with Manish and they keep discussing about the issue. Raghav notices a worried and tensed Kalpi and he stops. "Got your show stopper."

Manish looks at Raghav with a surprise and says "Where? What?"

"Look in front."

Manish says "Where is Pam? Only Kalpana is in front. What are you saying Raghav?"

"Not Pam, Manish" Raghav looks at Manish and moves his eye trying to make him understand and Manish opens his mouth and looks at Kalpana and then at Raghav in disbelief saying "No no...you can't be serious...You mean Kalp....But..."

Raghav says "But what Manish? Isn't she fit enough to be a model?"

"Not that Raghav but ....but will she agree to be the show stopper? She looks pretty and got the height and body to be a model but you know the attitude of a model...I mean tomorrow is the show and she is also not ready to walk the ramp..."

Raghav says "You trust me? I am quite experienced in training models and don't worry about the attitude and the walk...I got a trainer who can teach her all that in a day...She is a fast learner in any case...Just you need to agree and I'll get what you want to see in your model..."

"Hmmm....I'm fine with Kalpana being the show stopper but ...but she is your wife...I mean are you OK with her walking the ramp?"

Raghav laughs and says "If I was not then I would not have suggested you Manish..."

"Great! So now you are going to tell her right?"

"Me...no...Manish, you will need to tell her as she is not talking to me since yesterday..."

"What? Me? But..."

"Oh Manish! She can never tell no to you...She respects you a lot.."

"Ok but. Will she agree?"

"Yeah"

"Great" Manish smiles.

"May be."

Manish's smile fades and he looks pleadingly at Raghav "Will she?"

Raghav shrugs his shoulder and gives him a confused look and they both start staring at Kalpana.

Manish moves forward and dashes into her by mistake. "Sir..."

"Kalpana, hi..."

"Hi sir...Sir any news about Pam? Is she going to..."

"No she left. I tried to stop her but..." He looks at Raghav who keeps guiding him with words and actions. "But no problem."

"No problem? Means..."

"You are there na...Ahh...I mean, you can also be our show stopper..."

The peon comes with a tray bearing a glass of water and on hearing this the tray falls down.

All three look at him and he stops and says "Sorry sir...The tray just slipped off my hand..."

Kalpana stares at him angrily while Raghav puts his hand on his mouth to control his laughter.

"So you're ready na?"

"Ready for what? Showstopper and me, sir?"

"Yes. I mean you have everything that a model should have. The figure, the height, the...." He looks at Raghav for guidance and Kalpana notices Raghav standing behind in the corridor.

"No sir, I mean me and a model?"

"Yea, why not? Kalpana, you know that we have to organize the show tomorrow and Pam just walked out. Except you, I don't think anyone else will be fit as other professional models won't be willing to come in such a short notice."

"I know sir but I can't. I mean, walking on the ramp and me....No"

"Kalpana please...It's a request."

"Come on Kalpana. You can. I'm sure you can..."

"I was right. Kalpana will refuse but no..I can't let her refuse... What should I do?" Raghav comes in and says "No Manish. I don't think she can ...I mean look at her. She is not the model material..."

Kalpana bits her teeth in anger while Manish looks at Raghav in disbelief as he was sometime back trying to convince him to accept Kalpana as a model and now he himself is saying this.

Raghav winks at Manish and rests his hand on Manish's shoulder saying "Manish, she is not right at all and I guess...We will have to cancel the fashion show..."

Manish widens his eyes saying "What?" Raghav taps him on the shoulder to cool down.

"Cancel the show? But why?"

"Because we don't have a show stopper and you said you don't want to be one and for me you can't as well." Raghav snaps.

"Raghav, she can." Manish says.

"Sir but...."

"No Manish. Let's go and tell Sammy that the show is cancelled. Come...We need to inform the sponsors as well and give them a refund." He takes Manish with him and he stops on hearing Kalpana saying "No wait.."

Kalpana rushes towards Manish and says "No, please don't cancel the show. OK, if you want me to be the show stopper then I am fine with it."

Manish smiles and Raghav says "You and a show stopper. I mean LOL!"

"Why are you laughing? And I am not talking to you." Kalpana puts her hands on her waist and stares at Raghav. "So tell me what to do sir?"

"But....are you serious? Ramp walk and you?" Raghav says while Manish cuts Raghav saying "Well Raghav will tell hire a trainer for you and you can start right away. Right Raghav?"

Raghav looks at Manish and nods in an approval while Kalpana keeps staring at Raghav.

"Hmmm...OK, whatever you say Manish. Kalpana, I'll call the trainer now and he'll be here in an hour. Try the outfit till then."

"OK. That outfit any case will fit me. Pam and me are almost same size."

Raghav smirks and leaves. Manish says "Wow Raghav. She agreed." "I knew she will." "How? She initially refused." "I know her a bit by now. She always does the opposite. If you tell her yes, she says no and vice versa." "Yea, these girls are simply unpredictable." "You too feel the same right?" "Yes, have been handling so many tantrums of these models and so now am used to this." They both laugh and walk away.

"Huh! He thinks I can't walk the ramp and he was trying to make fun of me. Now I'll show you Mr. Raghav Singhania that I can too be a model. .....Model? And me? How will I manage to walk the ramp in that bridal dress? No but I will have to manage else the show...No Kalpana, you can do it...You can do it..."

Kalpana goes inside the trial room and wears the dress saying "It looks so beautiful but yeah, I need to alter it a bit. It will get done in minutes."

She comes out of the room and approaches Raghav's room to inquire about the trainer. She opens the door and notices that he is talking to some female models. He does not even notice her when she enters the room.

Kalpana widens her eyes when Suhana too enters the room dashing her and without apologizing she goes towards Raghav and hugs him. "Here I come Raghav."

Suhana kisses him on the cheek and Raghav looks at Kalpana who is boiling in anger. "He is touching Suhana's waist and this cheapo, she is taking chance with my husband. This...Uh! I feel like killing her."

Raghav touches Suhana's back and tries to release himself. Kalpana looks angrily as she notices his hands moving from the waist to the back and now to the hair. "This idiot is full on romancing and that too in front of me. Idiot!"

Raghav finally breaks the hug and Suhana looks at him saying "So tell me Raghav. Where is my dress?"

Raghav looks at Kalpana and says "Kalpana will help you in that." He points towards Kalpana and Kalpana looks in disbelief and says "No. I am too busy now. The peon will help you in that Suhana. Go talk to him." She walks away banging her feet on the ground.

"The peon?" Suhana looks at Raghav and Raghav says "Yea, actually Kalpana is quite busy and don't worry I will get back to you in sometime."

Kalpana rushes outside and bangs into the trainer but does not recognize her. She says "Raghav Singhania. You know where he is?" Kalpana stops and snaps "No. I don't know any Raghav Singhania." The trainer looks at her in confusion and Kalpana says to herself "Another model girl friend of his. Bloody jerk."

Raghav follows Kalpana and is stopped by the trainer. Kalpana suddenly stops when she notices Priya and Sushant in front of her. "Hi Kalpi." Priya hugs her and Sushant smiles.

"Oh hi Priya. Hi Sushant." She hugs both and notices Raghav standing behind with the trainer. "This idiot is flirting in front of Priya as well. I will have to teach him a lesson." "Oh Raghav!" Priya says.

Kalpana whispers in Priya's ear "I want to borrow your boy friend for sometime." Priya looks at her in confusion and Kalpana walks away holding Sushant's hand. Sushant looks behind at Priya who does not understand what was going on and Raghav who is talking to the trainer fumes in anger and storms behind them.

Sammy enters the kitchen where Sunaina is preparing lunch. She notices him coming inside

and becomes conscious. "You want something?" She asks.

"No...A...Actually...I just..." Sammy stammers.

"What? I'll serve the food in sometime." Sunaina turns to leave and Sammy holds her hand and pulls her near him. Sunaina widens her eyes with his action and is about to say something when Sammy puts his finger on her lips.

"Shusshh...Not today Sunaina." "Sa..." "No, please listen to me and then say something."

Sammy releases her and lowers his eyes saying "I have spoken to Vikram uncle about our relationship. And he..." Sunaina gets startled hearing this and says loudly "What?"

"Yes Sunaina. Vikram uncle knew about us and ...and he has accepted our relationship."

A tear falls from Sunaina's eyes and she looks down not having an answer.

Sammy holds her hand and says "Today please tell me what you feel about me. I really want to know this as tomorrow I will be leaving." Sunaina looks at him and he wipes the tears from her eyes. "Sunaina, uncle asked me to get married to you and I said that I want your answer first. You tell me whether you want me as a husband and if I am worthy of you or not." He caresses her face saying "Look at me. Please say yes or no. I promise you that once you say no, I will never come in front of you again and leave this place forever but if you accept me, I will give you all the happiness of this entire world. I will call my parents here and they have always supported me in my every decision. We will get married here itself, in this village. Only once say what you feel."
