Chapter 46

The mansion which they decided to start from fresh was again turned into dark. The shine and happiness again fell into sorrow by one incident take place on their marriage day. The happiness already fade away in some corner.

The door been slammed roughly by arnav with his face showing a cold expression. He didn't look at khushi who is holding sleeping jiya, curdling into her arms. During the entire journey from hospital to Raizada mansion he didn't let a word to escape. He was moving the wheel chair toward anjali room to brought her inside who recently discharged from hospital after facing the biggest trauma of her life. Everything turned out to be drastic after that one incident that occurred during their marriage day. Shyam got the most brutal punishment for attempting anjali murder and killing her unborn. Yes, she lost her baby in that incident when shyam attacked her with knife to safeguard her brother happiness but in the process she failed to protect her baby. That was the the most cruel incident which was still fresh in everyone's mind especially, arnav. He was yet unable to come out from that drastic night when he almost lost his sister for the girl he loved most.

His leg started to march out from Anjali's room with his eyes showing painful expression.

Khushi: ''Arnav..'' His didn't look at her and continue walking away. From time he married khushi, he cut all the ties with her and keeping distance from his newly wed wife making her responsible for his sister state.

In no time, she came in front blocking his way but he didn't tore his glare. His behavior was something she couldn't bare. She admit she hide the truth from him and that was her biggest mistake which she still regretting but she can't see hatred in his eyes. It was arching her.

He shrugged her hand off but khushi wasn't in term to stop this time. She cannot see hatred in his eyes. The guilt was eating her up. She couldn't rest at peace until she won't solve this mess.

Khushi: ''We need to talk..'' He choose to ignore her but she grip his hand stopping him.

''You can't ignore YOUR WIFE like this..'' He turned to shove her hand away with fire ragging him.

Arnav: ''Wife? Do you know the meaning of wife?''

Khushi: ''Arnav..'' She gulped down bearing his words.

Arnav: ''No khushi you don't.. A wife never hide anything from her husband..she share every sorrow and happiness with her life partner but what you did..you lie to me at every single step and ruin my di life and let her marry that monster..I gave my di responsibility to you because I had faith in you.. I thought you will protect her but you broke my trust khushi..i will never forgive you...not only di you spoiled our past and present by marrying jatin..I admit jatin didn't marry you but what about di..what was her fault..? How could you expect me to forgive you after playing with so many lives..''

Khushi(Holding his hand): Arnav please don' say like that...i swear I have no clue that shyam could go to such extend to harm di..I-..'' Been interrupted by his rude tone.

Arbav(Furiously): Don't you dare utter my di name from your bloody mouth..You don't deserve to be MY WIFE..'' Her eyes sparkled with tears hearing ill words from his mouth.

Khushi: ''Arnav I..let me explain ..I..''

Arnav(Turning angrily): '' Not a word..''

Khushi: ''But I..''

Arnav: ''I said shut up!!!'' He screamed making her body jerk by his sudden yell. He didn't met her gaze and storm out without giving damn to her. She stare at his disappearing figure with numbness and cried bitterly kneeling down. His words causes deep scar in her heart.

Suddenly she feel a soft palm touching her cheeks.

Jiya: ''Mumma..ap ro rahe ho..?'' (Are you crying?) With her small hands, jiya wipe her tears and in between started crying seeing her unstoppable tears. Khushi kissed her hands and take her into her embrace.

Khushi: ''No..beta! Mumma is fine..see..'' She pretend to smile and try to assure her she is alright but in vain.

Jiya: ''Lie..you are lying..papa is very bad he always make you cry..he don't love us..i will scold him..''

Khushi: ''Don't say like papa love you..''

Jiya: ''And what about you? Doesn't he love my mumma?'' She fought back her tears and bit her inner cheeks not to explode in front of her daughter. Khushi make her sit on the couch while she took seat beside her.

Khushi: ''Papa love mumma more than his life..'' There is pain in her voice.

Jiya: ''Then why he is not talking with you.. Is he angry with you? Will he throw us out of this house..'' Jiya innocent queries made her heart heavy but anyhow khushi pacify her daughter. Though he will give her hard time but she won't give up. Anyhow she would gain her husband forgiveness and will do anything to get him back.

*****

Khushi wake up next morning. Her eyes was slightly puffy due to continuous crying. Last night when khushi went to their bedroom, he threw her out. She knew it will be tough to win him but she won't give up and try everything to save their marital life.

She immediately wake up looking at the wall clock and get ready before he drove toward office. She started to make breakfast for her husband like a proper wife as this was officially her first day after marriage. She wanted to make it special, though circumstances were not favorable yet she try hard to gain her husband love again.

The moment bedroom door open, she make everything ready in front of him. He headed toward entrance without giving her single glance. Khushi passed the beautiful smile when he turn to grab his keys.

Khushi(With broad smile): ''Arnav..i had made breakfast for you..!'' But he didn't look at her for once and began searching keys which he couldn't find. Her smile faded but she recovered soon.

''If you want keys then come and eat breakfast first!'' She said in commanding tone.

Arnav(With coldness): ''Are you threatening me?'' He glance her.

Khushi: ''Yes I am..!'' She glare him and guide him toward dining table.

Arnav: ''Stop this non-sense..it won't work..!'' She smile back. But khushi is khushi. If he is fire then she is ice. She is determined to get her husband love into her life.

He didn't say anything after that and sat across the dining table with his eyes keep staring at the plate for passed few minutes without any movement. She try to initiate and extended him plate hoping he would notice what she had made but his eyes were glued without showing any interest.

Khushi(Clearing her throat) ''I prepared your favorite pasta..remember how you used to eat my fingers when i made you eat it with my hands..'' She try to break the silence between then and try to start fresh but his one palm stopped her approaching him.

Arnav: ''I hate it..it taste horrible..'' He threw the plate on the floor which she served and took the bread and butter to ate. She had an argue to cry but she stopped herself. She was hurt really hurt. The way he was behaving her it was literally breaking her. This was the first time she prepared something for him but he is way to adamant to gave her more pain. She had definitely not expected her life to be like that after marrying her love.

Khushi: ''Arnav why you behaving like that..i want to mend my mistake..I.'' (been interrupted)

Arnav: ''Do you think it was so easy..will you gave my di which she used to be...?''

Khushi: ''No I won't..''

Arnav: ''Then keep your mouth shut!'' A lone tears escaped from the corner of her eyes. ''Your tears no more affect me..''

Khushi: ''Arnav I try many times to tell you about di marraige but..''

Arnav: ''But what dammit!!!! I ALREADY KNEW ABOUT DI AND SHYAM MARRIAGE!'' She looked on shocked. ''Yes its true khushi..what you thought I was a fool?''

''Okay let me tell how and when..'' He started narrating her with greeted teeth and she heard it silently.

''Initially I had a doubt di is hiding something..like the way she used to behave from past some days I found it strange but then I got the most shocking news which was totally indigestible. Do you remember, Doctor Abhishek mehra, the famous gynecologist who used to be our college friend previously? She looked at him. '' Fortunately he was di's doctor with which she were used to visit for her monthly check up..I got to know about di pregnancy from abhishek when fortunately I meet him during one official function. I directly went to confront di after knowing that ugly truth but there I heard her talking with someone, who was blackmailing her...i have no idea who was he and why she was begging her husband..I decided to found out who is her husband and why she didn't tell me anything? After some days, aman told me she marriage to shyam, the same person whom I hate mostly. My all patience gave away hearing his name. He told me you made them marry and married jatin just after their marriage...I started joining dots. However, I went to Mumbai to found out the whole truth..it was not any business deal khushi..i wanted to found di truth and there I found your signature as a witness in their marriage certificate. But yet I deny to believe all the lies because I thought my khushi could never do such things. She will never let that shyam close to my di under any circumstances. After coming back home from meeting you, I got the call from shyam. He told me that he made MMS of di and his..'' He was unable to say a word after that..

Khushi: ''Arnav I don't have any option rather than making him marry di..he raped her and blackmailed her to upload her videos on the internet if I deny to accept their alliance..'' He grabbed her shoulder furiously hearing her words.

Arnav: ''Enough I don't want to hear anything further...i heard it enough and now i don't want to hear anymore shit..you got that..! He exclaimed sharply.

Khushi: ''Arnav believe me I..''

Arnav(Interrupting her): ''Sach toh yeh hain ki tumne mujhese kabhi pyaar kiya hi nahi.. agar kiya hota toh mujhse itni badi baat nahi chupati..'' (The truth is that You never loved me and if you did you never hide such things from me..) His voice cracked uttering these sets of words. She was holding her inner urmoil before it break into tears.

Jiya: ''Hi papa..'' She ran to her papa and hugged him. Khushi immediately control her sorrow and composed herself.

Arnav: ''Hey bachha..so ready to go to new school..'' He forced a smile trying hard to act normal in front of jiya. She gave her cute smile and began talking with him when she notice her mumma face.

Jiya: ''Papa what is this..you again made my mumma cry..I will not talk with you..'' She glare him.

Khushi: ''Jiya behave...he is your father..this is not the way to talk to him..'' She scolded her only to make her cry. He went to hold her but she ran away gloomily.

Arnav: ''Khushi why you are scolding her..she is a kid..'' He didn't wait anymore longer and went behind jiya.

*****

Jiya was sitting near the poolside and began sobbing rubbing her small nose. Arnav went and hugged her for a moment.

Jiya: ''Because of you mumma scold me..!'' He hold his ear and bow his head in front of his only daughter apologetically. Jiya melt down within a second and plant a loud kiss on his left cheek. ''Do you know mumma cried whole night because you didn't allow her to enter in your room?'' His face color changed hearing this.

''Papa..why you angry with mumma?'' He didn't comment on her query and made her stood in front of him by pulling her close.

Arnav: ''Promise me you will take care of her..'' She have no idea why he was saying this so suddenly unaware of the hidden meaning of those statement. His heart was struggling to go and comfort her but his mind not allowing him to go near her. He loved her a lot more than anything but the sight of anjali wasn't allowing him to forgive khushi.

******

Khushi try many times to sort out the differences but he was too adamant. He wasn't in term to talk with anyone. However, he went out of city to change his messed up mind hoping he able to forget all that happened. He make sure his di is fine and secure during his absence. He don't trust khushi after what she had done. However, he requested jatin to shift into his mansion for time being before he escort back to the lonely place where he could get some peace.

*Few days later*

He walked inside the mansion that was only surrounded with darkness. He don't feel like switching on the light. He lost everything starting from his family, this di was only his pillar but lost her too. He wished some miracle happens and he get back his old sister. But unfortunately he was not lucky to get what he always desired. The only place where he could find solace was with khushi. Even she was near but after what she did he wasn't able to forget that. This was the toughest phase of his life. At such situation, they need each other support but they are far apart.

He was about to take another foot near his room but something come on his way and he fell down. He froze the moment he lifted his head. Khushi was laying on the floor like a dead soul.

''khushi..?'' He shake her but she wasn't responding. Her face looking pale. Without any delay, he lifted her up and laid her on the bed. He didn't want anything bad happen to her. He loved her so much and he can't tolerate anything bad happen to her.

''Khushi open your eyes..dammit..!'' He saw some bruises on her hands and touch it with his shivered hands. His eyes started to welled up and he rubbed her hand to make her conscious. His panicness began to rise by each passing moment.

''Oh god how this happens.?'' He pull her into his laps and shake her but she was not responding. Her eyes were swollen and lips were dry. She is looking very weak. He kissed her face madly feeling guilty for leaving her alone. Jiya came running hearing his voice. She get highly frightened seeing khushi's state.

''Papa what happen to me?'' She was on the verge of crying.

''I knew it this will happen..'' He look up urgently. Jiya paused and he hold a breathe fearing something big is coming to his end.

''She haven't eat anything since you left her..i try many times but she keep starving..She wanted to punishing herself papa...She told me if you return then told you that Mumma love you very much and she can't live without you and this is my punishment for breaking his trust and ruining Anjali bua's life..'' His eyes popped out in fear. Tears beam out. He can't imagine khushi could do something like that. The more he saw her khushi like that the more he felt pain beneath his chest.

*****

''I have given her pain killer..she will gain conscious in sometimes..take care ..'' doctor left before inquiring about her current state.

The door have been slammed to get a clear view of a person lying on the bed. His heart sink for a second. He had an argue to touch her but he refrain when he saw her gaining conscious. He turned his head aside to hide his tears.

Khushi: ''You still hate me..? I m sorry..i m sorry..'' She sobs and then she could feel herself been hugged by the opposite person before she say another word. He was feeling really bad for hurting her.

Arnav(Guiltily): ''No khushi don't say like this..i m sorry..i treated you so bad..why you punished yourself its me who should be punished not you..'' She closed her eyes when she been hugged by his muscular arms which she craved since so long. She cry harder.

Khushi: ''Those years without you was like painful death for me and when you again leave me I thought I lost you arnav..i lost my arnav again..'' She burst out everything that stored within her heart. He nodded a No.

Arnav: ''I m not going anywhere without you..I don't hate you khushi if I try still I can't because you are my soul reason of existence..i can live without oxygen but not without my khushi..'' He whispered taking her close to his heart. He was so near but yet she feel she blink her eyes and he disappear. Her tear was stabbing his heart. In the process of giving her pain, he too was in pain.

Khushi: ''Arnav I..'' Words sink deep inside her throat when his lips started to smooch her rose petal. She clutched his collar and he kissed her senselessly to vanish all her fears. This time, when all the burden washed out, he kissed her with all he had and she welcomed his demanding. Arnav could never give what she deserve. Yet she loved him and her faith never wandered. He broke the kiss when she left breathless. She didn't realize when she doze off due to tiredness. He try to move but his hand been gripping by her possessively. He didn't hesitate and lay beside her taking her figure closer to his chest. For the first time after marriage they are sharing bed together. It feel so nice. How much he had missed her warmth. He was going to ensure his each day and night start with her and end with her.

The line have been drawn and their heart intertwined together
