PART 3

FLASHBACK CONTINUES

Khushi who was looking down looked up and was shocked to see the guy who spanked her ass standing right in front of her.

Khushi: YOU?

Arnav: Yes me… (with a smirk on his face)

Khushi loses her senses and slaps him on his face. Arnav holds his cheek and looks stiffed with his eyes red. Everyone in the cafetaria is stunned: you idiot, you dog… who the hell do you think you are…don't you have a mother or sister? Would you behave like that to them? What kind of person you are? I wonder what kind of women raised you up? She must have been some….

Arnav: SHUT UP!

His load roar made everyone go numb. Anger evident in his eyes. In a swift motion he placed his palm at the back of her head and pulled her inches away from his face. Khushi was staggered.

Arnav(hissed at Khushi): don't you ever.. and I mean it don't you ever dare talk about my mom or sister.. than the person standing in front of you would not be a human anymore.. understand??

Khushi still not willing to give up because she was not at fault retaliated by whispering back to him " what would you do"

Arnav (deadly whishper): baby… u don't know me.. I am Arnav Singh Malik… let me give you a better picture.. I will destroy you.. and for starters, you know the mere inches between your lips and mine would be diminished and trust me when I say I would do it infront of everyone including the principal of this college.. you understand?

Khushi nodded her head in fear of his next step

Arnav: do you want me to do it?

Khushi shaked her head negative

Arnav: now apologize for your behavior just now..

Khushi(whispering): sorry…..

Arnav: good girl.. (saying that he left her head slowly and went and sat with a bunch of guys at the next table)

Khushi's face was drenched with silent tears. No guys has ever been rude towards her like him but no one seem to care of what just happen like it was some daily occurance. La came and hold Khushi shoulder from behind. She turned and faced La.

La: come lets go..

La brought Khushi to the washroom and helped her adjust herself. Khushi looked at La questioningly. La knew what was going on in Khushi's head and voiced out.

La: I know what you are thinking.. but Arnav is really a nice guy he just got side tracked recently so his behavior changed. Don't mind him. plus you should not have talked to him like that…

Khushi: excuse me, don't mind him? that guy is rude! He just misbehaved to me.. and you are telling me not to mind him? what is wrong with you?

La: look I know he misbehaved but its because you pulled in his dead mother and his only sister that he really loves a lot. If not he would not have done such a thing..

Khushi: what? His mother is dead… I feel so lousy! Owh god… I dint know…

La: Khushi!! you do know that you are mad right?? One minute you all so angry and the next minute you feel guilty.. god what's wrong with you..plus you have already apologized.. leave it naa..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Days passed and Khushi still could not get her mind of her encounter with Arnav although she haven't seen him since then. One morning Khushi was late for her lecture, she was walking in a hurry at the corridors of her college when she accidently collided into someone. She felt two hands hold by the sides of her arms.

Arnav: ooopss..

Khushi looked and saw the guy who had been haunting her mind infront of her. Arnav removed both his hands in surrender form and was about to turn to move away as he saw it was Khushi he bumped in. when suddenly he hear a called out.

Khushi : Arnav, rukoo..

Arnav(in a annoying way): kya..

As he turn behind to face Khushi, he saw mother superior walking towards them and she haven't notice them. He pulled Khushi quickly into the janitors room nearby. Khushi was taken back with his sudden move followed him on his accord. Inside the dark, congested small spaced janitors room (where only one person was able to fit) Arnav hid himself and Khushi there to avoid mother superior.

Khushi: what the hell is wrong with you…

Arnav: shhh… mother superior..(pointing towards the small gaps between the door to show her)

Khushi: owhhh..but why are we hiding?

Arnav: owh yea because she loves playing hide and seek…

Khushi: (nodding) owhhh….(than taken by surprise) WHAT?

Arnav: shhh..(putting his index finger on her lips) look if she sees me she is going to lecture me about character and attitude towards my responsibilities and she will also lecture you on being late for class and if our time is bad will be held for punishment.. so why don't you just keep quiet and follow my lead..

Khushi nod her head in agreement. That's when he realized how close both of them were standing towards each other in the dark with glimpse of ray of sunlight. She was leaning on the closed door while he was pressing himself towards her. Their bodies rubbing against each other. She looked at him and raised her eyebrows. He looked at her questioningly. She signaled him with her eyes showing his finger on her lips. He removed his finger away. They shared an eye lock for a moment and she looked away while he kept on staring at her. He noticed how beautiful she looks. Her hazel doe shaped eyes, nicely shaped eye brows with long lashes, her long hair rubbing her rosy cheeks, her cute pouty lips, her heaving chest. Everything about her screamed sexiness! In an innocent way. He started to realize that she was feeling uncomfortable with the way he was staring at her, he looked out of the door through the gap and saw mother superior passing by. He knew she would have turned at the corner in few seconds and it was safe for them to come out.

He pushed her to the side and open the door to check if the line was clear. As it was he told her it was safe to come out and was just about to walk away.

Khushi: hey… wait… Arnav..ruko..

Arnav (in annoyed tone): now what??

Khushi: I just wanted to apologize.. I am really sorry for whatever that happened that day.. I should not have spoken to you like that.. I dint know..about your mom.. I am really sorry..

Arnav looked at her.. he knew she was genuinely sorry. He did not want to procrastinate the matter with her anymore since he did not like anyone bringing his moms topic out.

Arnav: its ok..anything else?

She looked at him in surprise. She was expecting him to apologies on his behavior but he did not.

Khushi: ahh.. but you have not apologies.. you know for what you did the other day?

Arnav (smirking): baby.. Arnav Singh Malik does not apologies. incase you dont know, ask around…ok?

Saying that he turned his feet and walked of leaving her with her mouth open.

Khushi mumbling to herself : Bathameez Kahike..

Khushi was mood out the whole day. After class when she was walking, she saw glimpse about Arnav and started to monologue to herself.

Khushi: cant say sorry uh..How rude…

Suddenly she felt someone pat her shoulder from back and she got startled..

Khushi: you scared me..

La: haha… why are you mumbling to your self baby? Who's rude?

Khushi: uh? Owhh.. woh.. That Arnav Singh Malik aur kon?

La: sweety..tu bohuth ajib hai.. first you wanted to apologies than you are angry now? What happend?

Khushi: Kuch nehi that aakdu has issues..

La: Khushi.. Arnav is a very nice guy. Once you get to know him and be his friend he will give his life for you. Yes he is a bit arrogant and naughty but his heart is like gold. You will understand someday.

Khushi: yaa right. And what makes you say that?

La: hmm. You know once Amaan and Nk got caught for violating the college rules and Arnav took the blame on him without a second thought. That's how he is. He is always there when his friends need him Khushi.

Khushi stared to the space thinking about Arnav. How close they were standing in the generators room. How he was staring at her. how she looked at him without him realizing. One thing for sure no matter how big of devil he is, he was definitely a good-looking devil.

La: oi, where you went?

Khushi: uh..nothing..just thinking..

La: carefull babes, don't think too much, then you might fall in love with him.

Khushi: chi… fall in love with him…never…

La: never say never honey.. you never know..

The next day, Khushi was walking with La to meet up with NK and Amaan who was waiting for them at the foyer and to her surprised when she reached there Arnav was also with them.

They stood there looking at each other without acknowledging anyone. She felt an unknown heat around her suddenly making her so quiet and uncomfortable. She stood there without saying or doing anything. They were playing with each other literally. When he looked at her she looked away, when she looked at him, he looked away.

Amaan: hey khush.. why are you so quiet..

Khushi: kuch nehi..urmm I have to go. (trying to runaway)

La: kahan..

Khushi: ermm to the ladies…

La: arey we just came from there naa..

Khushi: ermm sorry, sorry.. I mean to the library.. I will see you guys later.

Without waiting for another response she moved quickly from there but her eyes were on Arnav and his on hers until they disappeared from each others sight.

NK: she seems different today.

While the other two shake their heads negative. Arnav knew he was the reason. He dint know why but he found her different. There was a certain kind of air between them although their encounters always ended in a fight. He knew he misbehaved to her and for the first time in life he wanted to apologies to someone other than his mom or sister. Infect he wanted to apologies the other the day itself, if only she did not demand from him, he would have but now seeing her uncomfortable around him he had to talk to her.

He headed towards the library knowing very well she is there because he had noticed her many times entering the library plus he also heard from La that the library is her second home.

He went through the shelves looking for her and there he found her sitting among the shelves at the edge of the big windowpanes. The sunlight that shone from the window reflected on her face and she was glowing. The first thing that came in his mind was white colour, and she looked a lot like a figurine.

Arnav: hey Snow white..

Khushi was bolted out of the blue when she saw Arnav standing opposite of her with his hands tied.

Khushi: aap…

Arnav: haan mein…

Khushi: what are you doing here?

Arnav: why Khushi? cant I be here?

Khushi: whatever..

Khushi did not want to get prolong the conversation with stood up abruptly and was about to leave. When she was about to pass him, he blocked her. she stepped to the right, he moved to the right, she moved to the left he moved to the left. It was going on for some time when she gave up.

They stood staring at each other when she voiced out: what do you want?

Arnav slide his hands on both sides of her hips and pulled her closer. They were standing so closed that she was feeling rest less. He bends down to her ears and whispered: Khushi I am sorry. Whatever happened between us has already happened. I think we should start over again and I promise I would never ever misbehave to you again.. so what you think?

Khushi looked at him in disbelieve. Then nods her head in agreement.

Arnav removes his hands from a waist and brings his right hand in shake hand form, " Hi, I am Arnav Singh Malik"

Khushi accepts his handshake and replies " nice to meet you Arnav, I am Khushi Kumari Gupta.
