Chapter 20

Part 11

Their hug didnt limit there but started getting little intense as he lingered his fingers lazily in her innerskirt touching her pleats which were tucked in. She gasped but never wanted it to stop. He had hugged her from behind and he enjoying kissing her neckline which was so tempting as always.

Khushi: You are getting naugty Arnav.

She tried pushing him and he backed off
Arnav : You promised me something in the Car for helping you with this Saree, didnt you?
Khushi: Ohh . So all this was to make me complete that promise?

He pulled her close and kissed her forehead.
Arnav: I dont know what makes you deny marrying Arnav Singh Raizada sooner. But really Khushi I want us to be together always. In this room. I have already decided everything.

He held her hand and dragged her towards the bed.

Arnav: Right side mine and left is yours. Okay?
Khushi was quiet and just watching his face while he explained her everything.
Arnav: I love darkness so we are not going to keep a single light on anytime at night while we do all that. Okay?
Khushi : ALL THAT? What comes in that ALL THAT Arnav ?
Arnav chuckled and then picked her in his arms surprising her to the core. SHe held his nape to balance herself.

Arnav: I wont mind giving you a Demo on ALL THAT.

She blushed hard and held him tighter.
Khsuhi: Shut up.
Arnav: Okay . I will .

He carried her towards the bathroom door and stopped there.
Arnav: We have one Private glass Shower room, Jacuzzi and a Bath tub inside. Choose one.
Khsuhi : Why?
Arnav: Come on baby Choose one.
Khushi: Umm. Shower
Arnav: Good. So every morning we will have bath in the shower room and that too together. You will never deny this until its really necessary for you to have it without me inside.
Khushi laughed and could imagine which days he was talking about when she wont be able to take him inside for showe.

Arnav then carried her to the Poolside again.

Arnav: And we are going to make a complete use of this poolside. Atleast on weekends having nothing on our bodies . Promise?

He whispered that softly in her ears and she couldnt handle it anymore. She made him place her down.

Khushi : I should leave.
He caught her hand before she could go away
Arnav: You didnt promise me

She closed her eyes tight and tried to ignore all the other thoughts that blinded her mind. She smiled at him turning back and promised him for fulfilling every dream of his.

Khushi: I promise. Now shall we leave. I dont want your family to think we are busy doing something here. Come

She dragged him down after their short and sweet time here in his room which she thoroughly enjoyed.

Same Night

Khushi had left and already and now Arnav was sitting in his room talking to his Di about Khushi.

Anjali: She is childish. Thats all I could realise. And dont you think I didnt see how you were helping her answer us.
Arnav: Di but thats not a reason to reject her.
Anjali: I am not rejecting her. I am just saying she is not fit to be the bahu of this house yet. She needs to learn a lot Chotte.
Arnav: So What ? Everyone needs to do that and she too would some day.

Anjali: Chotte its not that. The point is I dont see that willingness in her eyes to make things right. Infact there is something else which bothers me about her.
Arnav: And what is that?

Anjali's face was sudden low but she didnt wish to hide anything from him.

Anjali: When I first met her in the Mall and we fought, she talked about casting some magic on me if I dont allow her to take that Shirt.
Arnav chuckled
Arnav: Di she just said that. It doesnt mean she will actually do something like this. She is very innocent. I know she does speaks things over her limit sometimes but she repents for that later. Trust me she is a good girl.

He held Anjali's hand and she looked at him with a pale face.

Anjali: Why do I feel she already has casted her love magic on you which has made you so defensive about her. You dont even wish to acknowledge what your family, your Di thinks about her Chotte ?

Arnav was getting little angry now.

Arnav: Enough Di. Please dont think all that. You know how much we all hate about Magic from our childhood. I dont know if such things even exist but if they do, I am sure Khushi will never be practising something like that. She is naive and I trust her. I love her Di. Please dont complicate things further. I will ask her not to use all such words before us anytime. Fine?

Anjali was still not happy. But for her Chotte she just nodded in agreement.

Cafe - Next Day

She mixed sugar in her Juice while he sipped his Sugarless Coffee and continued staring at her cold face. Seemed like she was unable to digest the fact that his sister didnt like her much.

Khushi: I knew it you know. She always gave me this Not good Vibes. But who is she to decide? Its me and you who should be happy with the decision.
Arnav: She is my elder Sister Khushi and I cannot sideline her words.

She placed the glass back on the table angrily and got up.
Khushi: If she means everything to you then why are you here with me? Just go back to your Di and spend time with her. Dont waste my time on such useless dates then.

She was leaving but he caught her hand, stopped her and got up too. He drew her close to him while she stared at the people around in this Cafe who were witnessing some real romantic couple here for the first time probably.

Arnav: Khushi if Di gave me life , you are the reason my heart is still beating. My Life is nothing if this heart stops functioning. Never think I will sacrifice you for anyone. I promise I will prove you the best bride for me before my family one day.

He brought her hands towards his lips and kissed her knuckles not leaving the eyelock of theirs even for a second while he did this. His words were soothing and so promising that anyone in her place would have believed. So did she believe him hugging him tight to herself and making up her mind to help him fulfil his words.

Arnav was the first one to realise they were being watched like this by the people around and he pulled back from the hug.

Arnav: Lets continue this outside. We have spectators here.
She chuckled and picking her purse she left with Arnav towards their Car.

_____________________

They were driving back to the Office after the Cafe when he remembered the words of his Di regarding the magic.

Arnav: And Yes. You know the main reason for Di to get scared of our relationship?
Khushi : My Modesty?
Arnav: No baby. Not that. She thinks you have done some magic on me , some kind of love spell has been casted which is not allowing me to see the reality.

He chuckled again remembering his Di's face how confused she was when she had told him this but Khushi's expressions worsen. Everytime she wished to forget what she did with him , she was made to face the reality by him all over again. She turned towards him.

Khushi: What if I say she is right?

Arnav smiled and held her hand while driving.

Arnav: Thats so true Khushi. Our love is really some kind of magic which makes me draw close to you everytime we are together. I think about you in your absence, I go crazy when I dont speak to you and I die to see you again and again everytime I am back home from work. If this is what love magic is, I am happy to be a part of it.

Khushi's eyes teared hearing these statements. She was so much touched with his feelings for her. She wished to tell him the truth that his Di wasnt wrong. She did think right. But will he ever trust her ? He was so much in Love with her that he didnt wish to see any flaws in their relationship.

She closed her eyes hiding her fear for sometime. She had to first confess to herself what she wanted from him, only after that she will be able to decide when and how she will let Arnav know everything about her.

Night

"I dont know if this is LOVE but I like being with him. Arnav Singh Raizada really has the charms to make me feel attracted for him. Why do I always think he should touch me? Kiss me? And yearn for me the same way like I do? What should I name these feelings? Is it really LOVE? Or is it only because I am attracted to him? Will I really marry him ?Do I want to impress his family for him? I dont know.. But I will do that for him. Because that will make me good in his eyes too and I like seeing him loving me. So Yes. From tomorrow Mission Good Bahu Starts."

She wrote this in her diary as this was her usual routine and then she placed it back in its place before sleeping.

Next Morning

Garima was more than surprised to see her daughter messing in the kitchen to make Bread toasts for her father in Breakfast. ALl the servants were kept out of this place and not allowed to enter inside to help her. Garima walked in.

Garima: What play is this Khushi? What is happeneing here?
Khushi: I am learning to cook Mom. Just leave it to me. I will do this myself.
Garima: Waahh. Where did the Sun rise today from? Whats the reason for my daughter's sudden change ? Did Arnav ask you this?

Khushi : No Mom. Arnav will never want me to do things that I hardly like. But his family is such a pain.
Garima: Khushi. Dont speak like that. Hold your tongue. If you like Arnav, you should Love his family too.
Khushi: Sorry. But thats what I am trying to do. THey need a good bahu for their house and I have started to learn being one. So please do not disturb me and leave me alone.

Garima chuckled seeing khushi's state but she liked the fact that her daughter was changing for good. She blessed her.

Garima: I will teach you.
Khushi: Really?
Garima: Yes. What is a mother for then? Come here.

She took her daughter in her embrace first and kissed her head. She then started showing Khushi some basic things before she learns cooking.
