Chapter 50

Part 47

It had been nearly one hour Khushi went with Lucy taking along two horses with them. And this really worried Arnav as he was recalling her last words again and again. He tried to give positive vibes to himself but none of the effort was practicing well on him. He called the maid several times and also checked with her about their arrival. Then again he didn't get any respond that he was hoping for. He thought of going behind them to find her. But his ego was above everything..

Arnav: "Damn! What should I do?" He paced in the living room trying to think what actually he should do.. Staying here defiantly not going to solve and running behind her would be the less his pride wanted to do. But then, he couldn't waste his time in waiting.. He needed to find her to see by his own eyes that she is safe or not?

The moment Arnav was about to rush towards the door, he saw Khushi walking in with Lucy. And for a change, Lucy was supporting her body with Khushi's arm resting behind her neck.

Arnav: "What happen?" He asked looking at them. He couldn't hide the fact that he was actually worried. And seeing she like this injured, worried him even more.

Lucy: "She fell down from the horse.." His eyes popped out in disbelief.

Arnav: "What?? Horse? She must be badly injured DAMN IT..!" He was about to clear the distance but then suddenly a thought run in his mind, about what she told him while she was leaving for horse riding. He asked Khushi.. "You did this purposely right? Or maybe you are doing some kind of acting to gain my sympathy?" That defiantly raised Khushi's anger.

Khushi: "You can think at that extend Arnav at this moment? I'm not that stupid yet to injure my body to get sympathy from other. Because at the end of the day I'm the one that going to bear the pain not anyone else going to replace and take my pain.." She gave him a cold looked before her eyes resumed at Lucy. "I can walk from here.. Thank you for helping me." Lucy nodded and walked out from the bungalow. She didn't want to come in between their confrontation.

Whereas, Khushi started to walk towards the kitchen dragging her bleed knee to find an aid. She tried to search it everywhere in the kitchen cabinet but still she wasn't able to locate the first aid box.

Arnav: "Come here.. I'll help you to bandage.." Khushi rolled her eyes at his offer. Just few minutes ago he mocked and accused her for doing acting. Then now, he is here to favour her? She wasn't going to let that happened.

Khushi: "That's not necessary.. I can do by my own.. And please give me that first aid box."

Even though, he wasn't in term to give her the box but knowing the strength she put to snatch the aid from his hold.. He let it go. Arnav walked behind her till the couch.

He saw her struggling with the medicines. There were only little bruised on her knee. But then she was taking tough time to apply the medicine. Her mouth was blowing wind to the wound trying to ease the pain the medicine was causing her bruised skin.

Khushi: "Oucch.." Again she blew her knee slowly..

Arnav (With care): "Need my help?" She looked at him through the corner of her eyes signing him that don't interrupt.

Khushi: "I won't ride horse anymore.." The pain was just little but yet she was making a huge fuss over it.

Arnav: "You need skills to handle the horse. It's not some kind of boyfriend where you can push away and then collect them back to give love. Animal also need respect.." Khushi lifted her face up with her eyes looking deeply at Arnav's face expression. She really wounded his heart at that point where he was reluctant to forgive her.

Khushi: "Arnav ... I"

Arnav: "We will talk later.." He walked to his room at the second floor..

INDIA -

Sanjay: "Nanu.. Please tell me where Arnav took Khushi?"

Khalash: "What you want to do with that?" The old man asked while reading the newspaper. He knew what his grandson was planning. Obviously, going behind his sister..

Sanjay: "I want to meet Khushi Nanu.. I don't know anything about her.. How she is doing after the incident? And how.. how.." He doesn't knew how to continue further..

Khalash: "How Arnav treat her?" His grandfather defiantly read his mind.

Sanjay: "You can count that too.." He add.. "Nanu please.." Khalash smiled on the effort Sanjay was trying to put too convince him.

It was already midnight at Cape Town. Arnav was climbing the stairs to retire in his room. Suddenly, he thought of checking Khushi and also her injury knee. Once he opened the room's door the bed was vacant so does the room. He scanned throughout the entire room and found no one in the private den.

Hurriedly, he walked downstairs and saw the maid switching off the kitchen lights after cleaning. He asked her quickly.

Arnav: "Where is Khushi?"

Maid: "I saw her going out just now.." His eyes narrowed.. In this condition she can still walk around? He didn't waste any more time and rushed outside to find her.

But the moment his leg stepped out from the bungalow the sky was filled with colourful fireworks. His legs glued at the spot. Whereas, his eyes looking up - mesmerized with the colour.

Suddenly, at the end of the event he saw the word SORRY' on the sky. When his eyes moves little down, there he saw Khushi standing 10 steps far from him holding her ears in a way to say sorry.. Her gesture touched his heart. His heart literally mends with her soft move. However, the time hasn't arrived yet for him to tell her that he already forgives her. He pretended to show her his cold nature.

Arnav: "What are you doing here?" He asked looking into her eyes.

Khushi: "I'm trying to surprise you with the fireworks and I'm sorry for the entire mistake I did to you." Her fingers were still stuck at her ears.

Arnav: "It's getting late.. Come inside." She started to wonder didn't he felt anything for her action? Not even one percent?

After seeing her standing like a statue, he decided to erase the distance and stand in front of her. Just in one go he lifted her up in his arms and marched inside the resident. Khushi was shocked with his action. She remote herself - thinking what he was going to do? From the direction he took it showed he was heading towards her bedroom. Indeed, she was right!

He placed her on the bed and covered her under the duvet. Arnav was about to march out but then Khushi gripped his wrist, halting his legs. He somehow knew what she wanted to ask!

Arnav(Not meeting her face): "I'll think about your sorry." Should she be happy? She doesn't know! But what she told herself was - that she would try even tomorrow..

************

For almost 2 hours Khushi and Arnav were seating in the living room watching a movie. Arnav purposely sat there near to her so that she would show more peace gesture. Whereas, Khushi was trying to come out with good words to start a conversation.. Okey this need to end anyhow!! She mumbled before clearing her throat..

Khushi: "Arnav, I think we should look around.. This is the first time I came here.. I want to see the place.." She waited for his respond. Idle! "I feel like ordering Pizza.." She knew she was blabbering nonsense. She should come to the point. She should voice out what's there in her heart.. She seat near to his couch and continued. "Arnav - I'm really sorry for what I did.. I shouldn't force you and shouldn't come in between your personal life. I'm really sorry.. I know you need time to forgive me but please don't forget me.."

There were sudden silences between them. No one speak or carry the conversation further. Suddenly, Arnav stood up without saying a word which Khushi was hoping for.

Khushi: "Ar -"

Arnav: "Later.." He was about to exit but she stopped him immediately.

Khushi: "I know I was wrong and I admit that.. You behaving like this make me feel unwanted.." She wanted to cry.. Scream.. Fall on her knees and many more but she knew that won't going to help. She did cry in front of him and he was still behaving coldly with her.

Arnav (Turning to meet her eyes): "Unwanted?" He smiled in a way of mocking her.. "No one can define that better than me.. So pl..." He was about to complete the whole sentence but suddenly, Khushi's lips smacked on top of his manly one. She didn't let him pushed away and that was the reason she clutched his collar tightly. She tried to awake his passion by insisting her tongue into his sexy mouth.

Slowly, she pulled back but not leaving the lower lips of Arnav Singh Raizada..

Khushi: "I want you.. I always want you." She brushed the barriers between their lips again by pulling him even closer than just now. And this time he does participated. His muscular arms slide behind her waist and giving her full existence to his lips. He couldn't put in words how much he missed this lady in his arms. She gave him the hardest time for real. But at the same time the love for her would never able to decrease not even a percent. He can show to her as much as attitude he wanted to show but the fact was, he wasn't able to stay stir from her present.

The sweetest moment never last for long. A serene voice from behind made Khushi pushed Arnav little and stood like a statue. Her eyes glued at the doorstep seeing her BROTHER ...
