Chapter 255 255. What In The World Just Happened?

With that, Joel and Nina went back to their positions before they heard 'Action'.

Joel entered the kitchen with light steps, his military uniform fitting him perfectly, while Nina was busy cooking dinner for both of them, unaware of his presence.

The soothing instrumental melody playing behind was enough to calm anyone listening to it, paired with the beautiful couple that was seen on screen, it was hard to take your eyes away from the scene.

He slowly took out a chain from his pocket, the heart shaped diamond pendant sparkling extra bright in the cameralight. He then took a step forward, standing just behind Nina.

He gently placed the chain around her neck, his eyes filled with nothing but only affection.

,m Nina was shocked at the sudden cold touch on her neck, but after looking at the pendant and then back at Joel's face behind her, she gave him a happy smile, as if nothing in this world could compare to the happiness that Joel brought to her.

She gestured to him to help her with the necklace, which he did readily and then Nina turned towards him.

Joel smiled at her, though his smile wasn't reaching his eyes. His eyes had a sadness, which he tried to mask with his smile, but Nina was able to look past his smile.

She questioned him with her eyes, to which he only shaked his head before taking out another box wrapped in velvet and carved in gold with the name 'Aurum' over it.

He then bent on one knee, before opening the box in front of her, which immediately showed two glittering rings placed one above another, both of them having a heart shaped diamond in the middle, one looking a little delicate and smaller than the other.

Joel took the smaller one before sliding it across Nina's finger and Nina repeated the same, a cheerful smile blooming on her face as well as warmth spreading through her body. Her cheeks were blushing a little, which she tried to cover up with her smile.

Once done, both of them hugged each other, stayed in the same position for a few more seconds before Joel broke their hug.

He then went to another room where he had already packed his bag. Nina followed behind him, unable to understand what was happening, but looking at the bags, she understood that Joel was once again leaving for his duty.

The couple gave each other a meaningful look before hugging once again, this time the hug was more of sadness and longing than the previous loving one.

Finally Joel went away, while Nina kept standing at the door, still looking ahead even when his figure had disappeared with tears brimming in her eyes.

"Cut." The director shouted and instantly all the lights were turned on, making all of them come out of the trance that Joel and Nins had created.

But the most stunned person was Kizy, who had not seen this coming. Though she had motivated Joel, she didn't expect him to act so well and bring out so many emotions. Neither did she expect Nina to literally tear up in the end.

'What in the world just happened?' Kizy thought to herself, though her face revealed no expression.

But what she didn't understand was that all this while, Joel was trying to act as some soldier who was about to leave for war.

But when Kizy related this situation to his life, asking him about what he would feel while leaving for a life risky mission while he was engaged to Nina, Joel finally thought things through.

Thus resulting in this wonderful setup which had amazed not just Kizy but all the people present on set.

"They did well!!" Suddenly Nicole came and stood behind Kizy, making her come out of her trance.

She had been revising her script in another room when she heard that Joel and Nina's shoot had begun. Thus she came here to see and gain some knowledge.

She was truly stunned by Joel and Nina's chemistry.

'Hope I'll do equally well. But I don't even know who my male partner is. Kizy has been mysterious about him. Hope we both will do as well as them.' Nicole thought before returning to her room and practising even more.

"Woah!! That was awesome Mr. Joel!! You both did a great job." The cameraman as well as the director praised Joel and Nina, while Kizy nodded her head, showing her approval as well as satisfaction.

"Get ready for the next shot, Miss Nina." Director said.

Nina had to change into a set of three more clothes, where she would be seen remembering Joel after watching her ring and necklace time and time again. After that a quote on love would be shown at the end followed by the name 'Aurum × Stardust' in the end.

Thus they showed their story within thirty seconds, showing how the jewellery was a constant reminder to Nina about her love for Joel.

It showed that even though he wasn't there to stay by her side personally, he was still accompanying her in the form of the gold presents that he had given her.

The rest of the shoot went on smoothly as Nina was easily getting into character.

Within one hour she was done changing her dress thrice and shooting in two to three takes.

"That was great!! We are done with the first commercial. Let's give a round of applause for Mr. Joel and Miss Nina." The director said before the entire team clapped, making both Joel and Nina blush a little.

"Should we start with the next shoot immediately or do you want to take a break Young Madam?" The director asked respectfully.

"Ask your team sir. I am completely fine with anything. If they want to take a break then we can wait or else we can continue as well. But I have a request." Kizy said.

"What is it Young madam?" The director asked.
