CHAPTER 44 – LOVE..EXPECTO PATRONUS...AND...YOU

Khushi's POV

I smile to myself as I hang up the phone now after assuring Mom, dad and Anjali that I was absolutely fine and that theh didnt have to worry about me at all and I had also told them them Arnav and me were going Live soon and I could hear Mom Gush that she was so proud of us both and she was bummed that she'd have to watch us Live on her phone on the way back home if there was too much crowd at the IMMIGRATIONS and then I could hear her asking Dad and Anjali to hurry up and walk faster with her to the Immigrations!

Mom was adorable just like Dad and Anjali too.

They have only been so sincere and supportive off me and I was so relieved when I discussed with Mom that the worse of the trolls still could come up if Asher's article came to light and she assured me that I didnt have to worry about anything at all and that she wanted Me to just focus on getting back on these Trolls in a way that was Savage and yet filled with Love and positivity!

Haha!

Yeass Mom!

I could do that!

And I will !!!

( Okk so yess to let you all in..a little background flash scene...so when I first stepped into the Shower to get ready...i finally opened the gates to the vulnerability that I had been feeling within and I had cried...it was natural for me to feel vulnerable within guys because even though I was expecting a lot of wrath my way all of what had come my way was downright hateful and mean and it did give me a whip within and I wanted to let my emotions flow but then uptil that point – I had held onto my composure and not cried in front of Arnav because seeing me cry at that point would have surely riled him up more...and so I just waited until the Shower to let my emotions flow...and I was glad because that ten minutes of crying and letting my emotions flow freely in the shower had led me to think of the Eureka solution and then just like that in a momentary second all of my vulnerability vanished as I was filled with a greater resolve within – and I will obviously tell Arnav about my this vulnerable moment but later on in the night maybe..once we were done taking our stand against this Hatred)

SO.

Anyways

And I was so glad that everyone at my side in Cape Town was also now relaxed and relieved about this as Arnav had been talking to everyone as in Diya,rahul,uncle ,aunty on the phone whilst I was on the phone with Mom ,Dad and Anjali as we finished winding up!

I also did get on a quick call with Zara and Zain and assured them that I had this in control.

And then to my surprise Asher had called Arnav and told him that he had asked his hotel staff to arrange for our private chat to happen with the reporter in the Presidential Suite and that he had also aced up the security at the hotels entrance!( he obviously heard of our plan from Zara and Zain)

Goshhh.

I really had to figure out a way of Thanking Him for everything!

I would thank him when I saw him with everyone back in Cape Town later this evening for dinner at Hit Wicket!

I gulp down some water again and I keep the glass down.

Okkk Thennn!!

Sooo Guyss!!

Let's do this!!!

I am now feeling totally empowered within as I have channelised all the love and strength and positivity from inside the very core of my heart and soul – by focusing completely on all the support and love I have from all of our family and friends and then the magical power of the Love of My Hoodie Guy ofcourse and the blessings I know my daddy,mom and Krish keep showering on me from the Heavens above.

I got this.

We got this.

And oh where am I??

I have just finished thanking the Chef and Butler for their wonderful service and like I said before I am just done sipping on some water now and I start to make my way out towards Arnav and Ravi who were now settling our stuff in the car.

We are to reach the Hotel in the next 25 minutes or so and the live chat with this reporter is scheduled to start in the next 45 minutes!!!

( Arnav pushed it further on schedule by 15 minutes)

And oh guys?

Just guess what am I wearing for my first ever live chat/interview with a reporter??

My Hoodie Guys Jersey that I had worn to the Final with the Same Denims and the Same Cap up my Head and my hair in that high ponytail and I had shoved it through that loophole of the Cap.And I have just put on some natural look BB cream and Nude Matt Lip stain like I had that day too.

The Same Look -.the world saw me in as Aranv's Wifi the very first time!

Ha!

For that is exactly the same look that I shall dawn as I cast my spell off Expecto Patronus- as a defence against these hate trolls and Dementors!

Haaaaaaaaa!

And now as I am walking out towards the entrance which was also the exit to this amazing Royal three floored suite – I see Arnav stride in quickly and I ask with a smile from across – " all set to go Love...all done...??"

And I see him smile back at me warmly as he gives me a mischevious wink and before I know it I am pulled by my hand to the side a little in front of the elevator away from the vision of the entry point and he's cupped my face now with one hand and his other hand removes My Cap a little and he pulls me closer Into his frame and he whispers looking into my eyes – " yes we are all set to go Love...all done..Ravi is waiting in the car already...hes on the phoe with Anjali.."

And I whisper looking into his eyes as I feel his hand caress my cheek lovingly – " then Arnav..let's go..we need to be at the hotel soon right..."

And he nods and he pulls me closer his eyes welled up with emotion as he caresses my cheek with one hand and the other hand is wrapped around possessively around my waist and he says– " yea but before we get going you gotta tell me something honestly love...you cried in the shower no Sunshine?? I just know you did..and you probably didnt want to tell me about it yet because you thought it would rile me up more..."

I look at him nervously but I admit honestly – " yes love I did...there was all this vulnerability within that I had to let out and allow it to flow through the tears and I was glad I did..becuase it led me to the Eureka Moment love...which coincidentally matched with your eureka moment..and now that I think off it..you are bloody brilliant love..for you were not even in the shower...", I finish with a nervous smile, wanting to lighten up the moment, even though I think my es have given it away to him that I am feeling a little vulnerable right now too as I recall those vulnerable moments of mine from the shower, and my eyes do well up on reflex.

Arnav kisses my forhead now and he says looking into my eyes, cupping my face ever so lovingly– " gosh..just remembering it is making you vulnerable again Sunshine..i know...and I want to be able to hold you in my arms everytime you feel vulnerable and want to cry Sunshine....dont worry about me getting riled up...I mean yes I hate your tears but still I want to be there with you to hold you tight as you want to cry...and I want you to know that.. its ok to cry Love...its ok to feel vulnerable...you dont have to have your iron armour of strength on all the time... woman...for you are still human Sunshine...and..its me Love...its ok for you too be vulnerable in front off me now too...I understand now..and I apologize for making you feel that you had to hold it in for my sake...because I think that is not fair to you...and iv figured it out in my head ok...im going to handle this calmly..i want to be your strength too Love and not your weakness...even though I know we are both of those spectrums to each other depending on the situations of our lives and how deeply we feel for each other but still...on most of the occasions...I want to be your strength...Sunshine...just like you are mine...", and my eyes well up now on reflex as tears start to roll down my cheeks and I hug him hard silently and just cry for a couple of minutes in his arms and he holds on to me really tight and hard and keeps brushing my hair lovingly and he whispers now – " and you are so innocent and pure Sunshine...your heart is only full of Love..so I can understand that all this hate is obviously a big whip to you within...I could sense it in your body language as you drew out those hearts on the sheets of papers...but yet even though when you were so vulnerable within..you held onto composure and were being strong for me...becuase of all the love that you feel within for me...how can I not fall in deeper in love with YOU with passing bloody passing second my Precious Sunshine?? Godammit I love you so so so muchhhhh..."

I just hug him hard and I whisper against his heart – " I love you too...I love you so so so much too...please dont misunderstand my tears though...please..i don't want you to feel that this is me crying out of any regret or a way of making you feel bad about it or something....its just the flow..."

And he now pulls apart and wipes my tears and then kisses my eyes – " I know...I will never misunderstand..I know...",and he pauses as he asks sincerely- " I know I am already forgiven for my angry outburst at you Sunshine...but I want to apologise again..its just that.."

And I now cup his face lovingly and I say looking into his eyes – "I know...I know... it's just that we have different views on that third eye perspective Love and I understand...its only normal..because we do stem from two very different realities...and yes we don't need to necessarily agree all the time love...its ok for us to love to disagree too...as long as we continue holding our hands through that disagreement and talk it out honestly to each other like we always do...always together"

And he nods in agreement and kisses my forhead now – "always together..like we always do...",and he pauses and we smile at each other heartwarming and we both know we are feeling so so muchhh better within now and he whispers leaning into my ear – " so...before we leave theres something else too that I need to do and that is..I need to kiss you Sunshine...even if it's a Brief one..",and before I can even reply his lips close over mine immediately as he kisses me briefly,deeply,emotionally and passionately all at the same time and I kiss him back immediately mirroring back every emotion of his.

And we now break apart a couple of minutes later reluctantly and I whisper against his lips – " goshh...to be honest...I think I needed that before we left too...now I am even more than ready to do this...", and I pause as I kiss his cheek and look into his eyes intently and I say – " for you my Love there isnt anything in the world I wouldn't do..."

And his eyes literally well up with emotion and he hugs me hard and whispers – " for you my love there isn't anything in the world I wouldnt do too..but please know that I do hate for this to have happened to you Khushi because of me...I hate this...I hate all these storms that have brewed up in our lives because of the reality of my side of the Life..in the past and in the present day today too...it makes me feel very guilty yes but call me a selfish beast maybe for saying this because I am a selfish bloody beast of the highest order when it comes to you...and so I can only hope and pray to the gods above that you always have it in you to stick by my side no matter how much trouble or change comes your way as our realities merge now because know this once and for all Sunshine...I need you FREAKING more than I need oxygen..I need you in my Life..i do not have it in me to go on without you ever not even for a bloody second...I'd die..i swear to god I'd prefer to die..so yes I know I'm being really selfish when I say this but I am just praying to God to keep giving you the strength so that you can continue being my iron woman and continue to hold onto my hand tight anyway and then I'm also asking him to keep giving me the strength so that I can keep turning on the lights along the way and make sure that I do the best within my power to make this as smooth for you..always...I love you so godammit muchh Khushi....forgive me maybe for being a bloody selfish beast of the highest order...but I cant help it..I cant ...for..I lovee you so so much godammit......"

And my eyes have welled up again and my heart is bursting with emotion and Love and I pull back now and I kiss him urgently and emotionally for a minute in a deep exchange of our single upper lip and lower lip kisses and I say now against his lips with my eyes closed – " I promise to always be your iron woman as long as you promise me one thing Hoodie guy..."

And he keeps his forhead on mine and our eyes are closed as we are intimately rubbing our noses together just breathing off each others breathe as they mingle with each other because of our proximity and he whispers – " anything Khushi...ask me anything...", and I now whisper against his lips by pulling him closer by holding onto his round neck tee in my clutched fist – " promise me that you will always be the selfish beast of the highest bloody order when it comes to me..promise me...you will never push me away because of any guilt or even a overpowering emotion of Love which makes you feel overwhelmed at seeing all of this happen to me...I know the mind can work that way love..it may try to trap you by feeling that ...it happened to me no once..so I know..but promise me love just promise me that you will always listen to your heart too and just be that selfish beast of the highest bloody order when it comes to me..because heres news flash to you too Hoodie guy..I am awfully selfish when it comes to you too..like the most selfish female beast of the highest bloody order too....I freaking nneed you more than I need oxygen too dammit...I need you...and I love you so so so godaamit much..." ,and just as I finish his lips close over mine in an urgent deep passionate emotional kiss again and I mirror the same emotion and passion back to him and in both our hearts now we are now completely overwhelmed with love and our this deep emotional kiss is a reflection of that... as we continue to kiss each other urgently and deeply for a bit.

A couple of minutes later I break apart reluctantly now catching on a breathe and I whisper heaving- " gosh...arnav...you know all that I am feeling within right now.. it's going to FREAKING make me cast the most powerful patronus against those hate Dementors....."

And he kisses my forhead now lovingly and readjusts the cap on my head and rubs his hand sensually over my lips and he grins – " i feel very much the same now Sunshine...you have no idea the loving Savagity I have planned in my head...for those bloody Dementors.."and i now open my eyes to look into his loving ones and he winks now and continues – "..and oh just so you know this Sunshine..these matt lip stains of yours are surely freaking kiss proof.. they dont budge at all no matter how much I try....look at how hard I tried to get them off in the shower too last night....and right now too..."

And i smack his arm playfully now and i say lacing my hand through his – " ohh shameless you...arent you...stop...let me concentrate on the day ahead of me please....let's go now..Ravi is surely wondering why arent we out yet..."

And he chuckles as he kisses my hand – " welL he knows I needed a moment with you...I told him that when I came in..", and I smile back at him and now as we start to walk hand in hand out now and he laces his hands lovingly around my shoulder as he whispers into my ear as we walk towards the car now – "Sunshine...know this..concentrate all you want on the day ahead until 11pm in the night...for after that I am going to whisk you away..and then you concentrate on me...and I concentrate on you...for that is exactly what we will need by then by the end of this day...just US...and my plan is on alright...for I am not letting any damm thing in the world take away what iv planned up for us...for you were right love..we let any of the nonsense ruin our mood and plans...then that means we let them win...and we shall not let them win ..."

And I shiver and I look into his eyes as I admit with a smile - " ofcourse Love...we wont let any negativity affect us ok...and yes I am with you on the fact that our plans remain unaffected..no matter what too...", and he now kisses my cheek and winks at me and opens the car door for me and I get in and he closes the door and I take a sigh of bliss and relief feeling even more powered than before – and I now look at Ravi who is sitting in the front seat and he gives me an encouraging smile and a thumbs up and resumes his talk with Anjali.

And I see Arnav now getting in the backseat next to me and he instructs the chauffeur to start driving now and he gestures me to come snuggle into him from the side and I do...and i take my Cap off myself and place it on the side carefully as i tell Arnav that I would put it on when we reached Asher's hotel after the 20 minute ride back.

And Arnav now kisses my hand and he cups my face lovingly – " you sure you are ok Sunshine???"

And I nod honestly and I admit looking into his eyes – " yes I am Love..more than just ok..dont worry about me at all..I'm just so glad you are ok now too...."

And he chuckles now and says – " the least I can do for you my Iron Woman..."

And I wink as I ask – " oohh wait is that what you are going to call me now...hoodie guy?? I love Sunshine...please stick with that and maybe use this sparingly...."

And he winks back playfully- " all righty...Sunshine...but yes totally going to use iron woman too for you are the most bravest person I have ever met...like i said before..you are freaking rock solid Iron within...and I csnt thank the gods enough for that.. "

And I hug him now from the side and my one arm wraps his waist from the front and I just close my eyes and I ask – " is it ok if I just hug you this way Hoodie Guy? Until we reach??"

And he whispers – " ahann...I want you too..." , and he kisses my forhead, and hugs me sideways tight too.

And we are just looking out the window now holding our hands and hugging each other and right then Ravi also hangs his call with Anjali as he says – " okkk so that was Anjali just telling me that they all might just reach home in time to screen mirror the two of yyours live chat on the tv from the phone...they are relieved and excited...thank god...",and I see Ravi look around and he snaps a pictures of us hugging and snuggling into each other in the backseat and he says grinning – " this shot is so adorable.. its so going up on my Insta...I love your idea Khushi..please share the old pictures of you and Arnav with us all...we shall keep posting it...this Love vs Hate is going to be a fun game with all these faceless hate trollers and what did you call them..yes the Dementors.. "

We both chuckle now and Ravi grins as he says- " just shared it with Anjali...and the rest ..to post it up too..and guess what have I captioned it??"

Arnav asks puzzled – " what ???"

Ravi grins and looks back and winks at us – " catch ASR and his Wifi on a live chat for the very first time in the next 30 minutes..haha...and I have tagged our every team member and...anjali..diya..zara..rahul and Zain too...this is going to be fun..."

And I chuckle now and I kiss Arnavs hand and hug him tight again.

Ravi – "oh man..everyone of us is reposting the same now...guys this is going to be epic...",and right then his phone rings and he picks it up as he says into the phone- " really Anjali?? These guys are quick...ok let me see..yes...khushi was prepared for this...I shall tell her anyway..." ,and he sighs now and looks back and I ask still hugging Arnav tight – " some dementor has figured out that it was me in that article with Asher right???"

And Ravi nods and he says – " yes...anjali just told me the new hate hashtag started on Twitter five minutes before...she saw it the minute she went to tweet this picture of you guys on her twitter too...."

And I sense Arnav stiffen a little as he asks – " what hashtag now??"

Ravi sighs –"ASRswifiInpaperslinkedwithanotherman and ASRsWifiIsAFakeGoldDigger and ASR'sWifitryingtotrapanothermillionaire..", and he pauses and he sighs- " and now there are tweets going up about that article with the pictures that were there..."

I look at Arnav as i ask softly tightening my arm around his waist- " you okkkk Love???"

Arnav nods at me and he smiles- " yes ok Sunshine...unleashing mental wrath on the haters though...but dont worry I'm ok...you tell me...are you ok???",and he cups my face lovingly and rubs his thumb in a loving caress and I nod as I say – " yess...I am ok...like I said I could sense this would happen...Love...",and I give him a smile as I admit – " wait..I know very soon some crazy hate meme will also pop up..."

And we hear Ravi's voice – " Jeez Khushi...it just did..."

And I give Arnav I told you so Look and we both ask in Unsion – " what does it say??"

Ravi sighs – "two pics of you Khushi side by side in a side frame of a conversation with Arnav from the stadium and then the one with Asher from the papers and theres also a picture of Arnav and Asher chatting up with each other from that moment in the Stands when Arnav shook hands with all and it says – Fake GOLD digger Khushi is wondering which of the two Millionairres would be a Better Catch..."

Ohhh goshh yaaa You Dementorss...you guys have crazy negative energy ya!

I close my eyes for a quick second to channelise strength and happiness and I open them a second later to see Arnav looking down at me with concern and I reassure him that I am totally fine and I ask Ravi – " show me please Ravi..", and he hands me his phone now and I see the Meme and I mentally draw like a line of ten hearts in my head in my coping defence mechanism and I see Arnav take the phone from my hand now and he zooms in to see another retweet with the same meme and just as i see what's written i literally cannot help but chuckle at the use of words for there was so much negativity in them but it was amusing too..and Arnav looks at me amused too,and we both share a chuckle now and i take the phone out of his hand now shaking my hand unable to beleive the last bit of what I had read...and I hand it back to Ravi and he obviously reads what Arnav and me had just read and he chuckles too and Ravi looks back at us amused too- " well this is amusing..asr..this person prefers a romance between you and Asher..haha.."

Oh and the words that we just read in that second retweet of that picture??

I cannot beleive this fake gold digger has the attention of two most eligible millionaire bachelors - one from India and one from South Africa. What is so special about her??Wake up GuyS! She is just a fake! And It would be a better news if ASR announced his Romance with Asher Khan instead – the two men surely know each other anyway!

And now all of a sudden the three of us burst out laughing as we look at each other in splits and I say first – " goshh Hoodie guy imagine yaa people want you and Asher to be gays now.. haha..."

Ravi fights his very own laugh as well – " oh my bloody god..this is hilarious...I'm surely retweeting this tweet with a caption – hey that's unfair.. the bromance between me and ASR is long known..back off from that suggestion of a romance between ASR and Asher Khan..for ASR is mine..."

I look at Ravi amused in between my laugh – " are you really posting that??"

Ravi winks – " yup ..I just did...you arent even on social media Khushi...so you dont know...but your Hoodie guy knows...I can be very cheeky when I want to be...and savage too...",and he pauses and i look at Arnav and we both continue to share a warm laugh and now Ravi bursts out laughing even more as he says – " shiv just joined in the fun...he just retweeted my tweet saying- back off Ravi...ASR and me are opening partners since forever...the whole world knows that...I have been in love with Him forr a long time now.ASR think about how well we open the Innings..Khushi..please dont mind..but I think I want to steal your Man..",and i burst out laughing even more now and so does Arnav and Ravi too and he now pauses as he adds further in splits – " ohh man Kunal has joint the fun too...he says retweeting the same pic..with the caption - the whole team knows that I have a man crush on ASR..back off Ravi and Shiv..and Asher khan too!.."

Arnav and me cant stop laughing now and I say in splits – " goshh that's so amusingly savage...", and I look at Arnav who cant stop laughing now and I say with a wink – " sorry Love..."

And he chuckles now and kisses my forhead – " for once...I love the fact that ravi, shiv and Kunal are being cheeky on my account on social media.."

And Ravi grins – " guyssss ohh the fun....our tweets are being retweeted like over and over again and people cant beleive how savage our sarcasm was on that hate troll for Khushi....haha..."

And right then Arnav's phone rings and I see Ashers name flashing on the phone and Arnav winks at me as he says dramatically – " excuse me Love...its my latest expected link up calling me...I have to take this call..."

And I nod and he picks up and I hear him say into the phone – " hello Asher..."

And I hug him close and I hear Ashers amused voice come through – " hello ASR..put me on the speaker please...I want khushi to here this..." ,and Arnav grins and puts it on speaker and we all hear Ashers voice come through – "so we are all at Hit Wicket obviously waiting to watch yours and Khushis live chat on the projector screen...its a house full here...its insane already and then Zara just shows me these memes on Twitter about how theyv dished out that article of Khushi and me and are now using it to bash her and I was feeling so guilty about it..sorry guys.. and then we all read that second d retweet about the suggestion of a romance between you and Me ASR...Khushi I think it's a good idea...you do know I am a big fan of ASR anyway..." ,he finishes with a chuckle and I hear Zara's voice come in from behind- " give Ravi a high five from my side please for that savage tweet of his...that was bloody brilliant Ravi.."

Zains voice comes through – " guys I cant beleive this Caps joint the fun...he just retweeted the tweet stating – ASR..please consider me in Line too! I have been in love with those arms ever since I saw them shoot their first ever massive UppercuT! Sachi is such a big fan..I am sure she wouldnt mind.."

Sachi was Cap's Wifes name!

And now we all burst out laughing and I now hear Ashers voice come through as he says softly – " khushi...I am sorry..for that...i thought it would never be spoken about again...ASR..my apologies...again..", and Arnav smiles at me as he gestures me to answer back immediately and I say – " Asher...please this is not your fault ok...please dont apologize...."

Arnav – " yes Asher on a serious note we mean it.. we know this is not in your hands too...dont worry about it..."

Asher – "khushi..I hope you are ok though..Zara told mme that you were..."

And Arnav smiles at me and I answer honestly – " yes Asher I am ok...thank you so much for everything Asher for the help now as well at your hotel..."

Asher – " dont worry about it Khushi..dont worry about it at all....", and he pauses and says – " ASR..I just got a message from the staff that its swamped at the entrance now by reporters for the message of yours and Khushi's live chat has gone viral as the reporter you will be talking too has stated the location of where the chat will be aired from as well..and...iv asked them to ace up security more..."

And I now hear Diya and Rahuls concerned voice from behind – " wait Asher is that Arnav and Khushi on the line....", and we hear Asher confirm and Rahul and Diyas voice come in unison- " all ok with you guys right?? Khushi you ok right???"

And I smile as I admit – " yes totally ok guysss dont worry..we are reaching hotel in five minutes...thank you so muchhh everyone..dont worry we got this..."

Arnav – " we are ok guys...thank you so much..see you all soon.."

" See you soon guyss..all the best for the live chat...",comes everyone's voice in unison

And we smile now and hang up and Ravi grins as he says with a wink – " ohh goshh Anjali just retweeted my tweet with a heartbroken and a sad emoticon saying..Ravi to think all this while I thought it was US..and now I see that its bhai youv been in love with all along.tsk tsk.."

Arnav and me burst out laughing and I ask Ravi in splits again – " Ravi...dont tell me you are going to tweet something in a reply to that..."

Ravi grins – " ohhh I totally just did.. "

Arnav cant stop laughing and we both now ask in unison- " what did you write??"

And Ravi winks as he says – " ohh I retweeted Anjali's post and said -Oh sweetheart dont worry...I am madly in Love with you both! I just cannot resist the charm of both you Raizada siblings..."

ME AND ARNAV LOOK AT EACH OTHER NOW AND WE BURST OUT INTO A ANOTHER LEVEL OF LAUGHTER ALL TOGETHER AND RAVI JOINS IN TOO..AND WE CANT STOP LAUGHING AT ALL.

GOSHHH.

I FEEL SO LIGHTTTTT.

AND.

Now I know we are about to pull into the driveway of the hotel and I compose myself as my eyes fall on the cluster of media and reporters and I say softly – " thank you ravi..for everything..."

Ravi grins and winks – " and you are my little sister now...no one messes with you...and gets away with it...i know you both wont come on social media...but i just know how to handle it all anyway....and I will..."

My eyes well up on relfex and Arnav kisses my hand and the car now pulls into the driveway and our car is immediately swamped all around by reporters and Arnav kisses on my hand again as he asks – " ready Love??? You sure about this?? I can ask him to drive away even if you say no...now too.."

I kiss his hand back and I admit cupping his face – " no I'm ready Love..." , and theres flash of camera all around us now and Arnav picks up the cap and places it on my head lovingly and he kisses my cheek – " cmon then Sunshine...let's cast that patronus..."

And I chuckle now and I take a deep breathe and I hear Ravi say – " guys hold on in...I'm getting off first..Cap messaged me..its freaking insane outside...I'm calling in security around the car to help distance the cameras.."

And I nod at him and I do feel a little nervous within and Arnav tightens the hold of his laced hand in mine and he whispers – " I am right here..I will not let go of your hand at all..ok Sunshine??"

I feel Love in all its glory glow in all of my being now and it literally washes away all of my one percent of nervousness away!

And now theres a knock on my window and we see Ravi gesturing us to roll it down and we do and we hear the flashes of cameras immediately and he says – " Arnav..come on to Khushis side will you please...we will take you both in like we did the other day..."

And Arnav kisses my forhead now , and a camera flashes and takes that shot and he gets off now and I take a deep breathe as he comes to my side now and opens the door for me and gives me his hand and I take it and he laces his hand through mine immediately and just as I step out, i am happily surprised to see Cap,Ravi,Shiv,Kunal and COACH sir there and its Coach Sir who comes to my side almost immediately and he puts his hand on my hair in a loving caring gesture and he asks – " khushi are you ok???"

And I ignore the flashes of the cameras now and I look at Coach sir and I ask with a smile – " Sir...you are still here?? Arnav told me you were supposed to fly earlier.."

And he smiles at me and he continues brushing my hair in a caring way and he says – " I couldnt leave..after knowing all that's been happening...we will fly back into cape town together.."

I feel my heart glow in happiness as I understand that this was his way of lending out support and strength to me and i look at the smiling and grinning faces of Ravi,Cap,Shiv and Kunal too and i look at Arnav who is smiling down at me lovingly and he now laces his hand around my shoulder and I just smile at everyone and I say – " thank you so much everyone...", and I whisper to Arnav by leaning into his ear – " lovee..this is amazing...everyone is so amazing...I cant thank them enough for this...", and he kisses my forhead now and pulls me into a side hug and cameras continue flashing and reporters now start hurling questions at me mostly all negative ones but do I pay attention to that???

I dont.

I cant mention what the questions are because to be honest my ears havent even processed them fully – my ears couldnt hear or Listen or comprehend the negative questions.

For

My vision is fixed on the protective Circle of Arnavs friends which were like family from the team – Cap,ravi,shiv,kunal and coach sir now circle around us and Arnav leading our way in through with his arm proactively and possesively around me and his other arm is blocking the continuous flashes too and just as we are now near the entry a reporter yells – "ASR...you are about to have a live chat arent you?? Why not talk to us now too??"

And Arnav now halts and he turns around a little and he smiles at the reporter and he says turning to the camera – " sorry about that dude...I like to keep the promises I make and I promised my reporter friend whom we are about to talk to..that she would be the first one to hear from us..so accept my sincere apology for that...and all of you please tune in to the chat though...I wouldnt mind the coverage..",he finishes with a friendly smile.

And we now make our way in and just as I get into the Lobby...we are surrounded by the rest of Arnavs team too as they all ask me if I was ok..and say that whatever was happening online was very nasty and that they were all going to keep condemning it and i thank everyone politely one by one for their support and in between all of that..I now feel a hand on my shoulder and I turn around to see Cap's wife smiling down at me and she gestures me in for a hug and I smile at her warmly and hug her...and I spot Arnav now talking to the rest of his teammates and some hotel staff too.

So.

I had met Caps wife before at the afterparty and oh you guys know a fun fact everyone calls her Maam lovingly – including Arnav.( like you know since they all still call Cap..Cap and not use his name..similarly they all address her as Maam)

We had also spoken briefly on that afterparty for sometime as she had stepped in for a bit after making baby Zoya sleep that night and have a babysitter from the hotel watch over the little one sleep for the two hours that Cap really wanted her to join in the party and celebrations.

And she now pulls back and gives me a warm smile and she asks – " you ok khushi???"

And I nod as I say with a smile – " yes I am... thank you so much maam....."

And she chuckles and hugs me again and says – " well I told you the other day too right?? That most of the team calls me Maam for their fun sake...but you please call me Sachi..."

I ask with an embarrassed smile - " are you sure Maam..??can I??"

She grins and winks– " ofcourse.. and specially now that our men might just be on the verge of having a potential romance in between themselves...its only fair that we should be on the first name basis..", she finishes with another wink and we both share a laugh and my heart warms and she now pauses and then puts her arm over my shoulder – "be strong ok Khushi..this is crazily negative I know but be strong...and stay positive..the only way to handle all this bashing..iv been through so much off it myself when Caps performance was stagnant after the wedding and the world was on and on about blaming the fact that it was because he was married now etc etc...or sometimes when I'm in the stands and he gets out..they troll saying partners shouldn't be allowed to watch matches..oh it goes on and on..not just for me but for all of team members respective partners in some way or the other...sometimes either for being a distraction or sometimes just even for our mere existence too ..so you my friend just gotta be strong ok and be positive and continue to just learn to build immunity against this bashing becuase it will now become a part and parcel of life ....but we gotta face it head on and wade our way around it and not let it pull us down at all ok?we gotta be the strength for our men in blue now dont we??" , and I nod and I hug her again and I thank her for her support and she pulls back and smiles – "and know that you can come and talk to me anytime ok???you go on for your live chat now and let's catch up after...we are all flying back to Cape town together anyway right..."

I nod..feeling very very very happy within and she clutches on my hand now and walks to Arnav and Cap now.

So much sincerity in each and every person around me and right then Shiv and Kunal come up to me and grin and wink and say in unison – " khushi...we both love your ASR...do you reckon we have a chance???"

And we all burst out laughing and minutes later I say to them – " thank you guyss for that...I mean it totally shifted the focus from that troll for me for a bit..."

Shiv grins – " you are most welcome...anytime..."

Kunal grins too – " every bit matters..."

And the young Singh also comes up to me and he says with a grin – " I think I want to be in line too behind Asher,Shiv and Kunal..and Cap too khushi maam..for I anyway lost out my heart to AsR in the final...I just tweeted that too..."

I chuckle now and i say immediately- " thank you so muchhh Singh..but please call me Khushi..."

And he grins and nods.

And right then I feel Arnavs hand come into lace mine from the side and i smile at him and he kisses my hand – " cmon then Sunshine...everything is set..."

I look at him and I ask with a smile – " love is it ok if we dont have this chat in private...I mean I want atleast the entire team and coach sir and Sachi maam to be with us in the presidential suite whilst we talk...I mean theyv all been so supportive..."

Arnav grins – " i would love that and i know so would they...you are FREAKING amazing Sunshine..." ,and we now walk up to Ravi and Arnav tells him what we had on our mind and he grins and nods and Arnav asks now – "the rest of my luggage is in your room right...I need to make a quick stop..give me your key..see you all up in the suite in five minutes..."

And Ravi gives him his key and nods and now walks back to talk to Cap and coach and the rest of the team too and I look at Arnav confused as I ask, for hes already holding onto my hand and taking me to the elevators – " Arnav..love...what is it???why this stop..."

And we now enter the lift and he immediately shoves me against the wall for we are alone and he whispers in my ears – " Sunshine...I have to take care of something very important...I will be quick..."

And I nod and he looks up and he cups my cheek lovingly and I cup his lovingly and I say looking into his eyes – " i love you so so so muchhh...."

And he kisses my hand – " I know...and I love you more...and I need you to figure out another superlative for Love soon...for us though Sunshine..for the word Love will never be enough for us.."

I nod happily and i kiss his cheek.

We reach the floor now and he takes me by the hand again and leads us to Ravis room..and just as we get in to my surprise i see him rush towards his suitcase and he opens it up and I am FREAKING touched and gobsmacked with Love as I see him now pull out the Hoodie I instantly recognise...its the same Hoodie he was wearing when we first met and I see him touch it lovingly and he now pulls it over his navy blue round neck tee and he turns around and winks at me and he says – " well you are in my jersey Sunshine for the live chat...and I totally want to be in the Hoodie that I was wearing when I first met you..."

And I am so so so overwhelmed with Love and i now quickly run to him and jump up in his arms and he picks me up instantly as my legs go around him as usual and I kiss him immediately taking his upper lip in the deepest single lip kiss now in which I pour in all my emotion and I break away a second later and I whisper keeping my forhead on his – " kiss me for two minutes maybe Hoodie guy..and then let's get out there and cast us that patronus...kiss me please..I think we have two minutes..."

He immediately now shoves me against the wall and he whispers against my lips looking into my eyes – " let's make that three minutes Sunshine..three freaking emotional minutes......", and before I can say anything..he kisses me deeply immediately and we both pour in every emotion into this kiss that was insanely raw and deep and I let his lips get me drunk on love and passion...the drink I very much needed before I faced the first live chat of my life with the reporter.

OH Damm You Dementors!

Noone can FREAKING stop Us from Casting the Patronus in our Defense – Now.

Just No Freaking One.

...................

AT THE PRESIDENTIAL SUITE

All the players of the Indian cricket team along with head Coach Das Sir and Cap's wife Sachi and his little Zoya are now seated amongst themselves in and around the formal dining area of the suite as they are talking and chatting amongst themselves happily, awaiting Arnav and Khushi's arrival for the live chat session to begin as the reporter was now settling in everything the cameraman etc the microphones as she set up the spot for the interview in the informal living area.

Sachi now hands over little Zoya lovingly to the babysitter and she gestures her to take Zoya in the room as shes slept off In her arms and once she had – Sachi retuurns her attention to her Husband who was now filling in ravi over everything he had missed out after breakfast as he'd left to meet Arnav and Khushi.

So to everyones surprise after breakfast – Coach Das had requested everyone to collect in his room – everyone as in every team player and sachi too and he had announced to everyone that he was not going to fly to Cape town as on schedule and have the support team fly out with the World Cup first and that he would join in everyone in the afternoon flight. And well Only Cap knew the reason why Coach sir was doing this for he was obviously worried for Khushi and no one apart from Cap and Arnav knew about Coach's link with Khushi uptil then.

But to Cap's happy surprise – coach Sir had revealed to all that the reason why he wasn't flying back was because he wanted to stay back and meet ASR's Khushi in person to check on her to see if she was Ok.And to everyones was surprised ofcourse as they wondered why Coach Sir was so worried – as in they all were united in the stand that whatever hate and negativity was being shoved Khushi's way was downright disgusting but they had never seen their Coach Sir so worried -and he really was worried as worried as he would have been for a family member maybe.

And that is when Coach Das had revealed the truth to everyone – about how he had found Khushi all those months ago – tried to execute a mean mind game at her for selfish reasons and how she twisted things around for herself and Arnav – and then whatever had happened all through these 11 months and how that pure and innocent soul had never given up on Arnav and yet kept her promise to him too and also never in her heart had ever held a grudge against him, and that is why he had grown so fond off her over time and after knowing all that she had done for Arnav – how he had learnt a very important lesson from Khushi in his life that had inspired him to look and approach things differently.

He told everyone the truth of the story he knew of Arnav and Khushi– everything he knew – the entire truth and also how he had revealed it to Arnav mid innings too and everyone was in shock first as they comprehended the backstory no one ever knew – and then as Coach sir explained that the reason why he was telling this to everyone now was that – because he knew in his heart and head that Khushi did not deserve any off the nonsense that was being thrown her way and that is why he wanted everyone to stand rock solid behind the two right now united and then he had also joked with all his team players telling them – that they should all tell their respective partners or future girlfriends in advance as and when at the very start of their personal relationships that if he- the head coach ever came to find anyone of them in the future and asked any of them to join in for a chat without his players knowledge– the girls should probably turn around on their heel and run for their lives – which had made everyone laugh ofcourse.

But everyone's heart was beyond touched by whatever they had just heard out of their Coach's confession and so even they all didn't know Khushi that well on a personal level yet – she already had earned a great spot of respect in everyones head and heart and then everyone had unanimously agreed that they were going to stand even more strongly united against all this hate trolling on Khushi too.... like they always backed each other up in the team...when a fellow player was being subjected to something terrible in the online world...but this time around they would stand up even more strongly because the hate and negativity this innocent girl was being subjected to online was totally downright disgusting and hateful and brutal – the most brutal-est form of trolling ever any of them had ever seen.

And then what had also won everyones heart even more was the fact that when they actually spotted Khushi step out of the car with Arnav – she was smiling throughout and being so gracious and positive and grateful to everyone, continuously thanking them for their support – and that courage and strength and positivity had clean bowled everyone to another level.

Ravi finishes listening to everything and he now looks at Cap and Sachi and he says – " wow...just wow...they didn't tell any of us yet..as in Arnav and Khushi didn't tell any of that to any of us...as in I dong think Khushi's family knows this and definetly Anjali, uncle and aunty don't know this yet..."

Cap nods – " im sure they will talk about it at their time and pace..so much has happened in such a short time Ravi...only natural to take time...anyway for now...like we all said we are all standing by their side.."

Sachi smiles and holds her husbands hand – " yes indeed...we all are..for no one deserves that kind of hate..and specially not someone so sweet and innocent like Khushi...."

Ravi sighs and smiles to himself – " god Khushi...I am stumped...I could have never imagined...",and he pauses as he looks at Cap and asks with a wink – " Cap...do you think Mom and dad will adopt Khushi if I ask them too..i want her as my sister...the sister I never had..."

Cap chuckles and Sachi whacks Ravi's arm playfully now and rigt then they all see Arnav and Khushi walk in hand in hand and they all exchange smiles amongst themselves as they wave at Arnav and Khushi and each of them gestures a thumbs up from behind as they watch them now take a seat on the sofa and the reporter greets them both.

Ravi winks at Cap as he says – " Cap...that is the hoodie he was wearing when he first met her...I am sure of that..."

And Cap winks back – " and she is in his jersey..."

Sachi smiles warmly, her heart glowing at the sight of pure love shining in between the vibe of Arnav and Khushi and she says looking at her husband lovingly – "and uptil now our love story was my favourite...but guess what I found one I love as equally if not more...this hoodie guy and his Wifi..are totally meant for each other..."

Ravi grins – " I agree..."

Cap chuckles and he nods at his wife lacing a arm around her shoulder lovingly too – " totally meant for each other..."

............................

Radha Raj was thrilled to be the reporter given the opportunity to take ASR's and his Wifi's Khushi's first ever ineterview in a live chat session.

Over time – she had become very fond of the way ASR had always spoken of his love with so much conviction and belief and then ofcourse then that epic reveal and the proposal the other day after the final – had personally touched the strings of her heart – for she had learnt and come to a conclusion over the past months that – Arnav singh Raizada was not the man the world had perceived him to be.

And she had written a very positive article on them both too in the next day entertainments release stating that this tale was no lesss than a modern day fairytale.

However she had also been very very disappointed when all those hate trolls and negativity had started being hurled Khushi's way – and because it was all over the bloody internet – everyone knew everything and she was kind off wondering what would ASR do now – in order to shield his WIfi and she was so glad when he had called her and asked her for this chat session.

She was prepped with all the questions she wanted to ask on their story too – and then all that Arnav had asked her to talk about too in terms off all that bashing and hate trolls as well.

And she was kind of excited to now talk to Khushi too.

Because uptil now – she had been so silent.

And it was right then she saw Arnav and Khushi walk in and she smiled to herself as she saw ASR in a hoodie and Khushi in his jersey – her heart already touched by the sight of them walking in hand in hand and then both of them acknowledging the support extended to them from the rest of the Indian team – and head coach and Cap's wife too from across the room.

Radha now greeted them both and pulled in Khushi for a warm hug as she says – " hello Khushi...so finally I meet ASR's mysterious Wifi...I want to wish you all the best ok?? ",and she pulls back and smiles at Khushi and then at ASR too and she says looking at Khushi again – "I know this is your first ever live session...you can just signal me with a gesture of a hand whenever you want me to ask the camera's to pause for a bit maybe...because you know since we will be streaming this live on our channels social media handles too linked with facebook watch – insta tv live..and everything – there will be people commenting contniously too and I will have to ask you to answer some of those too...but just give me a signal if anything makes you uncomfortable and I will pause...and my name is Radha..."

Khushi now smiles at Radha and she says – " I know...iv been watching you on TV..for so long...thank you so much for your support..."

Arnav grins at Radha as he now laces his hand through Khushi's and they take a seat on the sofa together and Radha takes a seat on the wing chair across and she asks the cameraman to now to get the cameras ready to roll and she looks at Arnav and Khushi and she asks – " ready guys??your collar mikes are in place right???"

Arnav and Khushi both look at each other and nod at each other lovingly and they say in unison – " yes they are...and yes we are all ready...lets do this.."

And right then Khushi says – " oh wait radha..before you roll the camera – I just want to ask you one question.."

Radha looks at her puzzled but smiles – " sure..anything Khushi??"

Khushi smiles – " Radha...have you seen the Harry potter movies by any chance..i am a big fan..and I am literally hoping that to my luck right now that so are you??i mean theres no harm in asking right??

Radha grins as she says – " well your question does amuse me a little because I do not understand the context yet...but that look on your face tells me you are onto something with that...so yes I will answer you and as your luck may have it...ofcourse...I am a die hard potterhead...and ohh the movies don't do justice to the books Khushi and im sure you agree with me on that too..."

Khushi grins at Arnav who now chuckles and kisses Khushi's hand as she says – " just our luck then...I am so glad to hear this...you can roll out the camera's now.."

And Radha nods.

And Radha now gets the Camera rolling and she says – " hello everyone...this is Radha Raj from ABC's India ... right here from Johannesburg...live for the very first time in a chat session with ASR and his mysterious Wifi Khushi...",and she now turns to Arnav and Khushi and she says wth a smile – " first thing out congratulations to the two of you...on the engagement...",and Arnav and Khushi both thank her in unison together which makes Radha smile and she now continues – " so ASR I have spoken to you so many times before so this time first I want to talk to Khushi...so Khushi.. I can see that Khushi you are wearing ASR's jersey ..which makes him very happy surely for he cant stop smiling...and we will also soon have a lot of comments now already flooding in...because we are live on our social media handles too...and look at that Khushi...Arnav wont just stop smiling...tell me is there any particular reason why yu chose to wear this to the live chat today??"

Arnav and Khushi both chuckle now and Arnav clutches on Khushis hand which is laced with hers in a loving gesture as he gestures her to now start talking,and Khushi nods with a smile and takes a deep breathe and she says adjusting hr cap over her head too – " hello Radha and hello everyone.. ...i mean the everyone who ever is watching... i am Khushi...or as you all would know me as ASR's mysterious Wifi until now and guys this is my first time in a live chat session so incase I fumble a little please don't mind...iv gotta a lot of water bottles with me here for help though...so I should not fumble...however...just in case...I think its important I give that disclaimer...you know like a beginners disclaimer to all this going Live and stuff...and now before I get to answering Rdha's first question...I need to take a sip of water..",and Khushi picks put a water bottle and sips on a sip with a grin which makes everyone chuckle around Arnav, radha, the entire team in the audience too as their heart warms up and Arnav enourges Khushi to continue and he tightens her grip on her hand and Khushi smiles now and continues – " so yes..to answer your question..yes so here is a reason why I am in Arnav's jersey and cap and mostly the entire same look I had the other day in the final at the stadium is because...this is my first live chat session right talking out to evryone...so I just wanted to be n the same look as the world firs saw me in...as ASR's mysterios Wifi that day..and to be honest guys – this mischevious man..totally had me stumped that day...I mean you all did see everything right...I was freaking gobsmacked to the edge of planet Neptune maybe...for I was expeting that proposal at all...",and Khushi now looks at Arnav with a smile and he kisses on her hand and ring finger mischeviously.

Radha chuckles now herself and she says with a smile – " oh we all know that Khushi...it was on your face...you were surely stumped..and now I want to ask you Arnav...that you are wearing a hoodie...is there any specific reason for that??"

Arnav grins now and he says with a grin – " well ofcourse...there is..didnt I tell you all that day...that Khushi calls me Hoodie guy...and this is the same hoodie I had on the first I met her...so oonly apt that I wear that to our first ever live chat session too...'

Radha grins and she says looking into her phone now – " ok both of you...we have a lot of comments coming in now...and one of them matches my next question....when did the two of you get together..as in ASR you did mention that you guys met in the Febuary of last year..."

Arnav grins – " so yes..wev met on the 16th of Febuary last year...and wev been connected ever since but if you want to know since when wev officially been together its since around the end of May last year...and before you ask me anything else...let me admit it live..that yes it took me all of my charm in between of those first three and ahalf months of knowing Khushi..to actually win her over...you could consider that as a phase of me wooing her..to get myself promoted from the status of hoodie Guy to My Hoodie Guy....gosh Sunshine..now that I look back...even with all of my genetic plethora of charm which mom and dad like to boast about theyv blessed me with..it took me three and half months..",and he finishes with a grin which makes Khushi chuckles immediately and makes everyone laugh around and Arnav continues with a chuckle – " and I think iv mentioned it before and I will say it again – she had my head and heart within the very first three days of we met...and a month into us just being connected..i was head over heels in love with this woman...and I would hope everyday...that shes falling for me too until those three and a half months passed and we got to starting things in between us offcially.."

Radha smiles and she looks at Khushi now and asks – " okkk Khushi...cmon..before I ask you anything else...can you please tell us why do you call him Hoodie guy???"

Khushi chuckles now and she says – " ok sure..so I live right above in a studio of our café in the middle of the city centr of Cape town...and it was then called Chai and coffee, and it was past our closing time ...amost 10 pm on the night of 16th febuary when this man walks in through the door dressed in this weird get up because he had his hoodie covering up all of his face and was looking down into his phone as well and he asks if he could get something to eat and a coffee maybe...and because it was past our closing and I could not technically make a sale too right since its against our rules and I say sir im sorry I cant make a sale now but yes I can offer you a cup of coffee surely since I just made myself one but haven't had it yet..so yes you could take that sir.."

Radha asks now interested – " so wait...you couldn't see him??"

Khushi nods – " yes...I couldn't see him at all..because of that weird hoodie covering his face.."

Arnav chips in – " and I couldn't see her too.."

Radha – " then what happened??"

Arnav chips in with a grin– " so I say..definetly touched by the kind gesture of being offered the coffee because I had been roaming aroun on the streets randomly in a hidden disguise fr about two hours listening to music...it's a thing I do a lot in the countries I tour on random days just for some mee time because I do not want to be recognised...anyway so then I thank her politely for the coffee and ask her if I can have something to eat too.."

Khushi chuckles now and chips in – " ok and I am thinking to myself...I surely cant turn a hungry person away and I cannot make a sale too and this person surely comes across as a criminal or a theif because of the weird get up..so I have a thought that I need to reconfirm that so I say – ok sir before I get to arranging something for you to eat...I just need you to know that incase you are some thief or criminal with some other intentions then its time you know that I am trained in marshall arts and all I need to do was press a button and the police would be there in three minutes and I could totally take him on till then....because trust me he was totally giving away a weird theif's vibe in that get up...so I was like thinking to myself before I get to helping this stranger...I just have to safeguard my position.."

Radha chuckles and she asks Arnav now – " ofcourse...that's very interesting Khushi....i so want to our reaction ASR..."

Arnav grins – " and im obviously chuckling within because we still cant see each other because of my hoodie and I just politely assure her that no I am not a criminal or a thrif..just a normal person who wanted something to eat...because I was hungry...and by now I am pretty much keen to just pull off my hoodie and see her face already...but I still keep it on...and she says ok then ill get you something to eat but first ill have to close down,and then she makes her way around her shutters and stuff with ease and I am watching pretty impressed because this tiny miny frame with that kind of athletic strength taking down those heavy shutters and I know immediately that she wasn't joking about her marshall arts comment....and once she is done is exactly when she says – ok you hoodie guy wait up in my back office whilst I whip you something to eat...and I am coined Hoodie guy in that epic moment of time once and forever..."

Khushi chuckles now and she says looking at Arnav – " well you cant blame me for that hoodie guy...just put out that hoodie on and let everyone see how much it covers your face...it was insanely misleading alright..."

Arnav chuckles now and actually pulls down his hoodie up his face to everyones amusemsnt and Khushi says – " see guys...now you know what I mean..."

Radha grins and nods – " yes now we know what you mean...it does look creepy..."

Arnav chuckles and now takes it off and kisses Khushis hand and radha asks – " ok so when did you see that it was ASR and not some thief..."

Khushi chuckles as she admits – " ok this is embarrassing to admit on live...but that was totally after I whipped him the quickest meal I could and got it to my backoffice where he was waiting still with his hoodie on for a meal..."

Radha asks interested – " and what did you whip him up?? I mean you couldn't make a sale..."

Khushi nods – " yes I couldn't so I just rushed up to my studio and whipped him the quicket meal I could in two minutes...maggi..."

Radha laughs now and she asks – " really???instant noodles??"

Arnav laughs – " exactly...so im like when I see the maggi my mouth waters because eof my health regime...I haven't had it in forever..and im like now really amused by this entire meeting anyway and I see her now sit opposite me on the office desk and she resumes her work on the desktop with utmost concentration.."

Khushi nods – " yup...I was working on my cafes accounts then..."

Arnav – " and she then places a water of bottle next to me saying I could have some if I needed it and by now I really want to see her face too because im already so intrigued and so I finally take off my hoodie and I introduce myself saying – hi im arnav...thanks for the meal...and she says with a nod – hi I am Khushi..your welcome please eat...and she returns her attention to her desktop for the next 20 minutes as I eat my meal in silence..."

Radha looks at Khushi – " wait what?? You didn't recognize him????"

Khushi smiles – " well is there any Indian on the planet who wouldn't recognise him...yes I did but I figured right then the minute I had seen him that the reason he was hiding under that hoodie was that probably he didn't want to be recognised so I just went on with my work really embarrassed within though that id called the vice captain of the Indian cricket team a potential criminal and given him a maggi for a meal...and I did have too much work to do anyway..."

Radha smiles and she asks – " and did the two of you talk then??"

Arnav smiles– " oh yes...we did...only after those 20 minutes of me eating in silence and wanting to know what the hell was this girl working on with so much concentration so late in the night....and I initiate our conversation...which then was so amazing and comfortable that it totally didn't feel like we had just met...and I think we chatted for about an hour then and by the time I leave from chai and coffee that day im like totally feeling like I haven't felt this kind of an instant connection with anyone for a long long time but id left in the cab back ok..and I realise I didn't even take her number...so I decide that I was going to come look for her the next day after the match..."

Khushi grins – " and after he leaves that very first day...im thinking too myself...that was a chance encounter and I am never going to see him again ofcourse...but I was glad we had that conversation because it totally proved to me that my daddy was always right all along that we must never judge a book by its cover...for he was so different from what they wrote about him..."

Radha smiles and she asks Arnav – " and did you go to look for her the other day then??"

Arnav – " yes totally...skipped on my afterparty after the win and then I go to chai and coffee backdoor and I bang on it for 30 minutes in the hope that I see her...but I don't and im so disappointed and I m thinking of another way to get hold on her number as I await my ubers arrival...and bamm to my luck...its Khushi as my uber pick up...gosh trust me I thanked uber's existence a zillion times that day..."

Radha chuckles now and she looks at Khushi – " and khushi obviously you must have been surprised seeing him at your backdoor...because ofcourse he missed a afterparty after the win...which im sure you must have seen..."

Arnav clutches on Khushi's hand and he says – " no..so by then I already knew because shed told me the very first day that She does not watch cricket...id even suggested her to get cricbuzz while leaving you know by telling her id be very happy if I knew my new friend was watching the games.."

Radha looks at Khushi confused – " wait...you didn't watch cricket then?? But we all know that now you along with your near and dear ones run a cricket themed café as well...I mean it was all over the internet...its called hit wicket your tongue right???

Khushi nods and she clutches on Arnavs hand and admits with a smile– " well yes...that's now...I eventually came around to it with time as I realised that everything about Arnav was supposed to be my destined catharsis...you know like they say the things you do for love...but when I first met him...I couldn't watch a game live...it was a thing I was working on to get out off...you can say I was still kind off chained to some grief I was coping up with on a personal level..."

Radha asks now wanting to know more– " would you please explain the context Khushi?? If you don't mind?? You clearly mean something deep in here.."

Arnav kisses on Khushis hand now and encourages her to go on and Khushi says – " well so...it is the story of my life...so yea...I guess I can talk about it now...so my daddy and my younger brother krish big fans of this man and Cap just Indian cricket all together too...",and Khushi looks up at the entire team upfront and she says – " you guys have no idea how crazy my little kriish was about each and every one of you...specially Cap you and ASR..",and everyone gives Khushi a heartfelt smile and Arnav clutches on Khushis hand and gestures her to continue and Khushi takes a deep breathe and she says – " so krish convinces mom and dad for the very first time to take him to watch the match live in between of south Africa and india at the Wanders Johannesburg a year ago...like back in feburary 2018...and I don't go because I have my assignments my third year in university had just begun too...and the plane carrying them on that fateful day crashed...no one survived..all passengers and crew killed...everyone gone in a fraction of a second..and I was battling with so much shock and grief in that year after that I could not get around to watch a game live on tv...it was too diffcilut then..a lot of things stemmed up you know like a paranoa for air travel...etc etc",and Khushi pauses as she wipes a tear outta the corner of her eye now and Arnav gives her the water to sip on and radha's own eyes well up a little as she asks – " Khushi you ok???"

Khushi finishes sipping on some water and she now says – " yes ok...ok...anyway like I said...I came around to it eventually as things between Arnav and me got rock solid with time because it felt like I was missing on such a important part of his life...and his love healed me you know to be honest...from being at a position of not being able to even download a cricbuzz app to now just living and breathing cricket a year and a half later...and then ofcourse...that day at the final...I stepped into the Wanders for the very first time watching the live watch for him..because I knew it was so important to him and I wanted to surprise him actually because I didn't tell him I was going to be there...but I guess he saw me on the screen...and then you all saw what happened...and he gave me a memory to look at Wanders so so differently...I mean now ofcourse I wont just look at it as the spot my family never reached...but also a spot where this man Uppercut my heart straight to the edge of space...",and khushi pauses now and looks at Arnav and kisses his hand and she says softly – " thank you hoodie guy..",and Arnav kisses her forhead lovingly and asks her if she was ok?

Radha says completely awed – " wow...just wow...ok so tell me more..khushi...so you said when the crash happened...you were still studying..."

Khushi nods – " yup..i was in my third year...as in it has just begun....i had to pause on my education for a bit...to setlle down some stuff after the crash ofcourse..i resumed it after like around the june of last year after me and Arnav officially got together...and its all done now...",and radha is about to ask another question now and Arnav pauses her as he gestures he wants to add something.

Arnav now grins as he adds – " and oh for the record..let me just put this out straight...my sunshine here..ok...so I also call her that..because she literally is the light of my life...she is a freaking superwoman flying around with a invisible cape and also a iron woman within..iv never seen anyone cope up with a loss as huge as she faced with that kind of a spirit and smile on her face still going on in Life happily irrespective of what it throws your way.. and...know this...she is technically literally more qualified than I am education wise...she is a Charterd accountant and has a dual management accounting degree too where as I just know how to bowl and bat and im still learning about the world of business from my father...well I haven't even been to a real college even... and here I see this amazing girl like multitasking at life with such ease that it became my freaking inspiration...when I met her she used to be interning at the managemt firm pursuing her CA too side by side and then the work at the café too, then its finance , its accounts and then ofcourse her uber schedule...and then she started with her big bus tours on Saturday and private tourist tours on Sundays too...and iv always been so proud of her for being the selfmade woman that she is...I respected her grit, her determination, her positivity, her courage..more than anything in the world...I always did, I still do....and now ever since June when shes finished both her degrees...shes been running hit wicket your tongue..managing it inside out and also works as a financial investment consultant to her friends too...and yes the uber remains on, so does the big bus and the tourist tours on Sundays as well...work is work right?? Just because my work is seen on the camera and hers isn't...that doesn't make it any less significant right??"

Radha smiles now as she says, completely awe inspired – " you are right ASR...and well that's very inspiring Khushi.."

Khushi looks at Arnav, her eyes welled up with emotion as she says – " gosh hoodie guy...stop...you are embarrassing me..."

Arnav rolls his eyes at Khushi lovingly as he says – " cmon Sunshine...let me..please..."and Arnav now holds her hand and he says – " so it hasn't been easy for us on a personal level too...you know with my hectic schedules, her education still going on...and so much was happening in the realities of our lives on two different sides of the globes in different time zones...but we stuck through...its been long distance for us for a long long time...Its been mostly that way...because of how aur lives have been running parallely in two differen parts of the globe and I knew I had to wait until June of this year anyway to take things ahead for Khushi and me because her degree would finish then and...it was her daddys dream to see her finish both her degrees...and I greatly respected that...",and Khushi adds softly – " and I also wanted Arnav to just focus on the games because it was so hectic right the entire schedule...and then the asia cup..the world cup..so to be honest...we kind off dint see each other for the last 11 months at all..i mean until he came in to south Africa for the world cup..and we only met like once in between then too...so yes..its been long distance mostly and it definetly hasn't been easy...and yeah now here we are...finally at that point of being engaged and are surely going to spend the rest of our lives together..."

Radha looks at the two completely wowed – " wait wow...does that actually work?? I mean long distance that way in this day and age??"

Arnav and Khushi smile and they say clutching on each other hands – " worked for us...we made sure of that..."

Khushi smiles and adds now – " well to be honest in the beginning when I first met him and you know that bit when he was leaving after those first five days – I thought im never even going to ever see him again...because to be honest it was overwhelming for me you know...since our worlds were so so so different...but...then...this hoodie guy...came around with his magic wand and totally won over my heart in a way that was so irrevocable that I would say to him I mean I still do – that you my hoodie guy are my Magic...his love not only healed me in so many ways on the personal front but its just very empowering you know...its like Magic for real...I call him my Dumbledore and our love the elder wand..."

Arnav chuckles now as he adds – " well no Radha...I pretty much think...she is the Dumbledore and I am the phoenix...and yes but we both would agree on one fact though that our love is totally like the elder wand for each of us in our lives, empowering, pure and honest and deep...."

And Radha chuckles now as she says looking at Khushi – " ohh now I know why you asked me before the chat if I watched harry potters....guys...just so you know Khushi asked me right before the chat If I knew about harry potter and I did tell her I was a potterhead..for all of you who aren't...please google the terms and get your referneces...for right now I still have a lot to chat with these two...congratulations to you both...like amazing...to even hear all of this...I so suggest you Khushi to write a book n you and your hoodie guy...it shall be a bestseller I tell you...I mean id reead it..because im already dying like so many of the comments coming in with fans now who want to know your story...",and Khushi chuckles as she looks at Arnav – "what do you think of that hoodie guy??a book on our story??"

Arnav grins – " well I love it...totally on for it...that is if you Sunshine let me write in things from my POV too and you write yours too...you know like a co-authored book in between of you and me..."

Khushi chuckles as she says – " ok then hoodie guy lets discuss this later..thanks radha for the wonderful idea.."

Radha grins and looks at Khushi and she says looking into the phone and she says with a smile - " so Khushi...now our comments section Is flooded with a lot of postiviity for you both...and people are sending you lots of Love specially to you Khushi...an my next question to you is...again coincidentally is what a person has just commented to ask – well you aren't oblivious to all the online trolling and negativity that's being hurled at you...how do you feel about that? Were you shocked or surprised????"

Khushi now takes a deep breathe and clutches on Arnavs hand and she says – "so to be honest, I was surprised or shocked..i was expecting it because you know of all the guessworks that's been happening around Wifi's identity over these months...that gave me a hint that when my identity would come to light...id probably be at the receiving end of a lot of bashing because you know for obvious reasons...no one knows me...they would obviously feel Arnav deserves better...so I was prepared..."

Radha is awed by that calm and composure in Khushis body language and she turns to Arnav and she asks – " and Arnav you???"

Arnav takes a deep breathe and says with a smile – " well...to be honest...I was totally taken aback...like I was raging in fury when I read the things I did...I mean my friend Ravi told me since me and Khushi are both not on social media...it was like I was so mad I could have turned the room upside down...because you know the things that have been set my sunhines way are downright disgusting....but she is my calm...se calmed me down...you know more like how you cant diffuse fire with fire...I mean the fire brigade does use water to diffuse a raging fire...the cool spray of water is what exhausts a raging fire right...so im much better now and all because of Khushi..like I said shes my iron woman...she literally took all this hate and made the most amusing analogy in her head in a coping mechanism.....wait till you hear that.."

Radha looks at Khushi and she asks – " and I am intrigued to know this analogy..."

Khushi smiles and she admits – " well I just said to myself...Khushi these are just trolls and dementors being sent your way from the high courts of social media-azkaban and now you need to cast a patronus to defend yourself..."

Radha busrts into a amusing laughter because she gets the nalogy as a potter head and she says amongst a happy laughter – "oh my god Khushi...that was brilliant...amazing...who in the bloody hell could think of that...and to all of you who don't get the analogy google the word dementor, Azkaban and harry potter...you will all know what a brilliant coping mechanism was that..."

Khushi chuckles now as she admits – " well radha to be honest...like I said...it hasn't been easy for us...I mean our journey...long distance...its been beautiful in its own way but painful too right to be so part in real time...and now when we are finally at that point of us starting our lives, you know the time we have both been dying for is finally here...and then if I let all this dementors and negative trolls pull me down to its cages ...then it would be like stupid me...I cannot let any negativity take away even the bit of the happiness I am feeling within...and I want to add that I understand why the trolling and negativity happened..because yes the differences in our realities is so vast..but a difference that was easily bridged by the love we feel for each other in our hearts... and I would like to add that even though I understand the third eye perspective and I am not judging anyone for unleashing all this hate my way because its like to ech their own...but to me from where I view it...even though I understand I do not accept this..as in its not ok...for anyone to just unleash hate online without even knowing anything and that is why I haven't allowed my head to even process all this negativity or let it impact me as in yes ofcourse I was hurt to read what I did momentarily..but then I still will never let it process through my head or impact me or us for that matter because its not worth it...in our hearts Arnav and me know what we are to each other...our love is magical...and our families and friends are with us right...that's all that matters to us.."

Arnav smiles and kisses Khushi's forhead and says lovingly – " exactly my point too...that's all that matters and to be honest like I said...I think in the matters of the heart no one kind of indulges in a public voting for the right answer like they would on a game show of KBC or who wants o be a millionaire...the heart wants what I wants..and our hearts chose each other its as simple as that.....and I am definetly not even looking at opinions...so to all my fans if you truly respect me and my game...id request you to please show some respect towards my personal space and extend if not love atleast some decent respect to the woman who is going to be my wife very soon...and like my Sunshine said we are so not letting any dementor suck the happiness out of us...hate will never win in here..."

Khushi smiles and nods and says – "yes indeed and look guys I am not saying this out loud with the expectation that this will stop...I know it wont...people have the freedom to express whatever they want. Whatever your opnions are...you are free to think and feel to what you want...but know this guys we are here to take a stand saying that...so are we...we are also free to feel and think whatever we want...to cut the long story short you give us hate...we will show you love....in our own way and I just want to add that the hate being sent my way will definetly wont blow us apart...will only make us stronger...so its upto you to each their own...you can hate me if you want..call me names if you want...but know that no matter how mean a demetor you send my way...I am building better immunity against it with a stronger spell of the expecto patronus because I am going to defend how I feel no matter what...for its up to me whether I let all of this affect me...and it wont...hate can never pull me down...for just like Dumbledore says happiness can be found in the darkest of the places only if one remembers to turn on the light...and for Arnav...I shall always turn on the light...always.."

Arnav sighs looking at Khushi and he turns to Radha and he says dramtically holding his heart – " and I just fell in love with this woman freaking all over again....do you see how magnificent she is...goddamit Sunshine...",and he pulls in Khushi for a hug and Khushi hugs him back happily

Everyone in the background now starts clapping and hooting and Radha claps too happily, completely awed and she says – " well that's amazing...Khushi...if one remembers to turn on the light....",and she pauses as she sees Arnnav and Khushi pull apart and radha looks at Arnav as she asks with a silent gesture if he wanted her to go on the next section and Arnav nods and he takes a deep breathe for now was the time he was waiting for too and he gestures to rest of the teammates to sit back for they thought that this chat was coming to an end and Radha now nods and looks at Arnav and she says – " ok so ASR...I want to talk about some of those hateful trolls and memes...because I want you both to reply to it..and since I know you two are not on social media so..."

Arnav nods and holds Khushis hand and Radha asks – " ok so the first ones..the very first of the hashtags it all started from on twitter the #asrwiiidentityisatotalletdown #asrdeservesbetter # asrswifiisataxidriver...what would you answer to that ASR??"

Arnav takes a deep breathe as he gestures to Khushi that he will answer that and Khushi nods silently and Arnav says – " well I think I totally could have revealed my sunshines identity to the world in a much grander way...and so I think if anything is a let down is probably the way I executed it...I should have probably had had the video crane take me up in air to her stand and jumped my way in like a Bollywood hero for real....yeahh...so that's my answer to the first one..."

Khushi chuckles and everyone laughs so does Radha for ASr was being so savage in his style now and Arnav continues – " well and addressing the next two hashtag – well to be honest its me who probably doesn't deserve someone as pure and priceless as Khushi for she is one of a kind and its me who is luckier that she loves me back...and decided to give me the honour of having her by my side as my wife soon... not the other way definetly...and then the last hashtag saying asr'swifiisataxidriver...well to that id like to say like I already mentioned before I thank uber for its existence because it hadn't been for Uber I wouldn't have met Khushi the second time around in the way I did....and to be honest in the beginning Khushi had saved her name in my contact as uber girl...so her being a uber driver is something very important to me in our story too and not only that I deeply admired it always and I still do because like I said before she is a independent hardworking dedicated self made woman and I am proud of everything she does and know this guys the reason why she saved her no is my phone as uber girl was because our association was supposed to be a huge secret because shes always been a private person and she didn't want anyone to know because of all the drama it could add to her life...you know with me being who I am...it took her sometime to come around...and so only I know that even doing this live chat today is like a big deal for her for she's come along way for me..at every spectrum emotionally ....like just imagine even her near and dear ones didn't know about us until the final...whereas my family knew everything from day one...as in I told my mom the minute I landed back in delhi in feb of last year that iv met someone I really really like...and I think shes the one...and to be honest my family, or my friends everyone knew how deeply I loved Khushi even before she knew it...so yes guys to close the answer on that one again...I totally love Khushis uber and some of my very favouritest moments in our story are the uber rides iv taken with Khushi...so..yyeah and not to forget the interest tales she would recite out to me after every match as she would catch on to fan stories or how fans of cricket react to us...in the backseat of her uber...god bless khushis Uber...its been so much fun...for both of us..."

Khushis eyes well up now as she clutches on Arnavs hand and Radha smiles now as she asks the next question – " well and some trolls have obviously called her a fake gold digger...."

Arnav gestures to Khushi that he will answer that too and he says – " well maybe im going to ask ravi to create a hashtag calling me a gold digger...because to be honest...when I met Khushi first...I knew straight out that I was the one who had struck gold...the real gold....for its thr heart that shines...and my Sunshine hearts shines so bright it really puts all of the worldly glitz and glamour to shame..and its about time that people look at Love above all of this worldly glitter and glammer...look guys...I am a matured man..i have travelled the world...met so many people..and I think I am more than capable enough in my head and heart to differentiate between real and fake...and it's the materialistic stuff that is fake for it will loose its glitter with time...and the reality is always what the person is deep within and when I met Khushi like I said before I knew it in my heart that I had struck gold...and the more I got to know her I figured that its her heart that's a freaking goldmine that I need to keep digging my way in so as to win it over..I wanted that heart of pure gold more than anything in the world.. and hence I put the use of all of charm into wooing her and was thankfully successful for which I shall like to thank god,fate and destiny again.. ...so yeah call me the gold digger guys..."

And Khushi now hugs Arnav immediately totally overwhelmed and she kisses his cheek lovingly and whispers – " thank you Love...."

Radha smiles as she says wiping a overhwlmed happy tear out of her very own eye – "and I think ASR you have just answered to a lot of hate troll comments aptly covering a lot of them in just one answer....like how you shoot down several things with one arrow...so yeah...."

Arnav now smiles and Radha looks into her phone and she asks – " Arnav there are some fans asking some questions on the live chat which I think you would want to answer..."

Arnav nods – " sure...shoot it..."

Radha says reading out one – " so ASR we all know that there was a article linking up Khushi with another man...how do you feel about that??"

Khushi clutches on Arnavs hand and arnav gives her a smile and he says looking at the camera and Radha – " well to be honest...you tell me...all of you tell me...how many articles have there been written about me...linking me up with aisha first then all those super models...god knows what all has not been said about me...and Khushi has stood by me through thick and thin off it because theres something that's even more beautiful than platinum in between of us and that is trust...we trust each other a lot...and if she can put through all of that nonsense for me always until I came on the mike and exclaimed to the world that I was in Love... then what's this one silly article to my eye..its just a freaking nonsensical fly that I shoved off my shoulder...for I surely am not a hypocrite or someone who believes in double standards...so yes...and anyways theres no truth in it...for Asher and Khushi are good friends..i know that since a long time..asher khan is a very good man...and I respect him and we are all in a very good cordial space in between of us..so please id like everyone to respect that and to be honest even if there was anyone out there in love with Khushi for that matter – its like I know...I understand because I know my Sunshine is so so priceless that its impossible to not fall in love with her...and in such a case I am just happy and honoured that Khushi loves me back and I am lucky and blessed to have her in my life...and like we said before we are very secured in our relationship that our hearts beat for one another..and we are most definetly engaged to be married soon...."

Radha smiles and she now looks at Khushi and asks- " ok so theres a question for you now coming up Khushi...will you be comfortable to answer??"

Khushi nods and smiles – " totally it shall be me now whose going to answer for I think my Hoodie guy has spoken enough...he speaks one line more and I am going to tear up into a emotional mess...",she finishes with a chuckle and then says- " ok shoot...and hoodie guy...you just hold my hand..now and let me take this on...ok??"

Arnav grins and winks at Khushi – " sprightly Sunshine..."

Radha grins – " ok so someone is asking that – Khushi theres a lot of hate come your way that it's been insane and theres this awful meme that was going around with a picture of you gaping overwhelmed at the ring on your hand when ASR put it on in the stadium and the captions to the meme said – this fake gold digger csnt beleive that shes got a diamond as big as that on her finger...Did you see that meme?? And now that wev heard you talk...I want to know what are u thinking in your head when AsR put that ring on your hand in that moment of time..."

Khushi smiles and she admits – ".okkk so thank you for your question.. so yes I have seen that meme...and yeah it was nasty ofcourse...but to answer your second part of the question...I was obviously overwhelmed when I saw the size of the rock but more so because I was worried that it looked like a ring out of a treasure box and what If I end up losing it by wearing it everyday...because guys I am very very clumsy and goofy...so yeah and to be honest I was also gasping at the brown diamonds trying to figure out the reason why Arnav had them embedded in the ring...and so it clicked me in a while but I will like to tell you all about it anyway...so what you all know is that Arnav proposed to me in that stadium on the night of the final...what you all dont know is that he has those brown coloured diamonds in the ring because they resemble the colour of the coffee bean and it was me who proposed Arnav first with a coffee bean in a ring box on a video call back in November last year...and he totally wanted to include a reflection of that moment in between of us in the ring becuase he was really upset that I beat him to it...you know that I was the first one to propose..."

Radha grins as she says – " oh my god wow...really Is this for real???"

Arnav chuckles and kisses Khushis ring on her finger and admits – " totally for real...Radha...I was beyond upset that my Sunshine beat me to it..but....god you guys have no idea how happy I was though that day...I literally fired through my innings that day...haha..."

Khushi chuckles now and Radha grins and she says to Khushi – " you better get around to writing that book soon...because I want read all about your story in detail....."

Khushi chuckles and Radha now looks into her phone and she asks reading another question -. " ok another question for you khushi...what's your reaction Khushi to that meme of you today saying that you were thinking of which millionaire was better to trap...and how they ssuggested that a romance between Asher and ASR was a better news..."

Khushi now bursts out laughing with Arnav and Khushi says – " ohh it was obviously nasty so reading the first bit was like obviously whippy within but I mentally drew out like ten hearts in my head to fizzle out the impact of the negativity and then when the second meme turned up...I would like to thank Ravi and the rest of the team out there...for that amazing support they lent out to me...thank you guyssss...."

Radha grins now as she admits herself- " ohh yes that was savage guys from our men in blue...hoot..hoot...", and everyone in the team starts cheering up and clapping in the background.

And Radha smiles and she looks down in her phone again and her smile vanishes as she reads the next comment and shes so disappointed and decides to skip it as she looks up and she sees Khushi looking at her as she asks as the noise now silences – " a harsh dementor my way again? Dont worry about it Radha...come on shoot...", and Khushi laces her hand through Arnavs

Radha takes a deep breathe and she reads – " so Khushi a dementor wants to know – khushi how can you even be with a cricketer when you lost your entire family in a crash when they were going to watch a cricket match? It's insane.. if I were u...I wouldnt even ever be able to look at the bloody sport not even a sportsperson related to the game...let alone be with one or marry one for that matter...you lost your entire family that day...I think they would be really ashamed of you from up there...embracing the reason for their ddeath this way..."

Khushi flinches a little now for that was a whip within indeed and Arnav instantly holds onto her hand and he whispers – " Sunshine...you dont need to answer this...", and he looks at Radha and says – " radha we are skipping that.. "

Khushi holds onto Arnavs hand and she looks at Radha and she says fighting back tears channeling her inner strength and Khushi asks for a pen paper and says to Radha – " we are not skipping that...I have a answer...I just need a pen and paper..."

Theres still silence in the suite now for everyone is gobsmacked at this user for even prompting a question as harsh at that and bowled by Khushis courage for wanting to answer it Live.

Khushi is quickly given one paper and pen and Arnav says – " Sunshine dont...this just is ugly..."

Khushi smiles st him fighting back her tears and she says – " trust me..."

And Arnav sighs and Khushi now looks at the camera and she says after sipping on the water and she draws one line on the paper and she shoves it in front of the camera and she.asks – " radha..do you see this line??"

Radha nods solemnly her heart going to to Khushi in the moment too and Khushi says now – " well you can obviously just find your focus shifting to just this line right for it's the only thing you see in the paper...now wait...", and Khushi draws a bigger line next to the smaller line and she shoves it in front of the camera and asks Radha – " what do you or everyone see right now?? Where is your focus now???"

Radha says immediately- " the bigger line ofcourse...a lot of comments are flooding in saying that too..."

Khushi smiles now bravely and she says looking straight into the camera – " exactly...the smaller line lost its significance by default just as that bigger line was drawn next to it...its a lesson my DADDY taught me when I was little..he would say you Khushi are your daddys brave little girl...and remember whenever in life uncertain things happen and they try to pull you down...always focus on drawing a bigger line of positivity next to a line of negativity or unfavourable situation and let your energies guide you to doing just that...dont focus on erasing the other line or cursing it for existing...focus on drawing that bigger line and the other line will loose its significance by default in your life....and over time...I have realised the true meaning of his lesson...to me..iv realised that as humans wev got both sides within - the ability to act on the light of love or the darkness of hate or hurt..but what matters is the part we choose to make our choices that become our decisions..and at the end of the day I am my daddys brave little girl still and I know...he is watching me from up there...I gotta make him proud by always drawing that bigger line and focusing on that.. and I m sorry to say this to the person who prompted this question to me...but thsts strictly your opinion again without even knowing how my family was as people or their thought processes...no they would never be ashamed off me...of anything I'm sure my daddy,mommy and Krish are very proud of me from up there for moving on and letting go of grief and choosing my happiness...you know my daddy and mommy kept my very name Khushi because they would say I am their happiness as their first born so..i know what they would truly want right now from up there is for me to be happy..and I am very happy with the decisions I have made..and in the process I have learnt that its holding grudges or resentments that's the easier way out..its letting go and forgiveness to people or life situations for that matter that's really harder...for the latter is the positive long term solution the former will only make you bitter..and like I said before..to each their own..i dont expect you to understand my decisions.. but maybe just agree to disagree for I am not you....you are you...I am me...khushi...life makes me stumble. I will surely bandage my knee with love and get up back on and continue walking with a smile on my face..for if anything that crash taught me was that life can be snatched away from you too soon...so might as well live it staying true to your heart..people will talk...yes they will theh will talk anyway if they have too..but if you stay true to your heart...youv atleast lived your time here on this planet earth to its worthwhile...and I am doing exactly what my heart says..so I am sure my family up there is only proud of me.....", finishes Khushi with a pause and everyone around starts to clap and cheer her and she is pulled into a instant hug again by Arnav who just holds her tight.

Khushi hugs onto Arnav regaining strength from his embrace even though all she wanted to do was cry on the moment t in his arms for that question had made her feel extremely vulnerable within. But she holds onto her composure still..she does..for this was her true test maybe by Life...she couldnt cry right now in front of the world...she would cry later on in Arnavs arms in privacy but not now..and she takes a deep breathe and composes herself and then smiles at Arnav and sips on some water and looks at Radha and smiles.

Radha grins now totally gobsmacked herself by this amazing woman in front of her and she says – " and that my friends is expecto patronus for you in all its glory...khushi that was awe inspiring from you...bloody brilliant...you really are rock solid within..." and Khushi smiles and says – " thank you..."

And Radha says reading a comment – " so somebody just commented that she is a bigger fan of you now than she is off AsR after your last answer...", and just as she reads the comment within the next her smile vanishes again and Khushi asks – " what is it Radha??"

Radha now glares at the camera her very own eyes full of rage now and she says angrily – " I have not taken any usernames name on live but I will of this pathetic dementor now ..so username .asrcrazyfan12345 how can you be so pathetically disgusting to even send out a comment like that.."

Khushi now looks at Radha and she asks – " radha what is it please tell me??"

Radha – " no I cant.khushi..Asr..this is pathetic.."

And Khushi says looking at Radha – " cmon what can it be Radha worse than the last one I got my patronus ready...please tell me...I told you these Dementors will still come...cannot stop them but just give it back with love...maybe...I want to know this one..."

Radha says looking at ASR – " no shes doesnt..."

Khushi – " I do..cmon please...we are live..."

Radha – " well people are already bashing this user online in the comments to his or her comments but are you sure Khushi?"

Arnav – " sunshine maybe not a good idea.."

Khushi sighs and looks at Radha – " I'm just curious to know because if it's so bad then I really want to reply.."

Radha sighs as she says fighting her own tear – " so this pathetic dementor writes – oh you fake Khushi you must have fooled half the people with your fake innocence and goody shoes positive attitude but not me for I have seen enough filthy girls like you trying to trap wealthy men with that facade of innocence and purity.i still hate you and I think that AsR is so stupid to be blinded by you that he cant even differentiate between carbon and a diamond...you are a dirty dusty filthy peice of carbon which can never deserve a diamond like ASR...maybe you should have been with your middle class minded foolish family in that plane when it crashed.you would have died too and we wouldnt have to see a filth like you stand next to ASR..why didnt you sit on that plane with your family and die that day.. loser Khushi????", finishes reading Radha wiping her very own tear and she looks at a stunned Khushi now as she says – " khushi please I read it out because you wanted me too but you dont have to answer that.."

Arnav feels his insides fume as he asks rage dipping in his voice now as he side hugs Khushi and asks – ""what the f****??what did you ay this username was??

And there is a pin drop silence in the room as Khushi looks at the stunned and solemn faces of everyone in the room and she feels her insides start to crumble under the harsh and brutal whip as she literally fights back her very own tears but she quickly picks on a bottle of water and gulps it down and holds Arnavs hand instantly and once shes done drinking the water she gestures to him with her eyes that she was going to answer this and even though this was way brutal than anything ever he had to keep his calm for her sake for they were live on camera.

And only Arnav knows how he composes himself only because Khushi literally begged him too with her eyes right now completely welled up but she still had a small smile on her face and she was now rubbing his hand too soothening him and lacing her hand with his tight and he knew she was taking strength from that too and he immediately side hugs her and Khushi now fights back tears and says with a small smile wiping two tears outta the corner of her eye and she says taking a deep breathe – " ok Radha....so...you were wrong...that wasnt a dementor at all...like ouchhhhh that was so brutal as in so much hate hurled through those nasty words..that it totally felt this isnt a dementor or a troll...this is totally feels like as if Lord Voldemort just cast out a Avada Kedavra curse out at me...cmon Harry Potter fans watching do you guys agree ?? Radha do you agree???this was as brutal as thst right???

And Radha looks at Khushi in sheer awe now as she says- " I agree....and so a hundred of comments that are now flooding in your support Khushi...and I shall explain to the rest right now that lord Voldemort is like the most evil wizard in all of Harry Potter and avada kadevra is like a powerful curse...a killing curse which no one in the stories of Harry Potter has ever known to survive except for the main protagonist harry himself...non potter fans can google the rest..."

And Khushi takes a deep breathe now holding onto Arnsvs hand and she says – " sooo yes like I said that totally felt like an evil attack from lord Voldemort himself with the avada kadevra sort of words...but to answer you Mr Voldemort I would only say one thing just one thing ccnsider this as my very own defense expelliarmus disarming spell back at you as I aim to disarm all that hate you sent out to me and I shall not let it process and impact me so...to answer your last line...you asked why didnt I sit on the plane that day and die with my family that day? I have an answer for you....I think I didnt get on that plane becuase it was fated and destined to be written to happen that way..because you see I was yet to meet Arnav...and like I said before everything about him is supposed to be my Destined Catharsis......and Our Story is surely destined in the stars too... and that's why our fate and destiny brought us together in the ways it did...and even though I do not expect you to understand this...but I will still say it because i shall true to my heart and express exactly what I wanted to answer you ...so thank you for your question Mr Voldemrot ...it surely made me vulnerable for a moment..but it didnt still succeed in killing my positive spirit within..I am my daddys bravest girl after all..I always was and I always will be...and I think I just heard my family cheer me up from the Heavens above....."finishes Khushi with a smile and takes a relieved sigh and she looks at Arnav now who is looking at her totally gobsmacked and stunned and shaken as he couldnt beleive the courage Khushi had just shown right now.

And he hugs her immediately and Radha literally stands up and claps now and so does everyone else in the room as they clap and cheer for Khushi and Khushi just holds onto Arnavs arms around her and hugs him too and Radha now says to the camera – " and I think just like me... all the sensible positive people on this planet are now as much a fan of Arnavs Mysterious Wifi as they are off ASR for that amazing display of strength and courage live on camera for the very first time...shes won my heart todatoday truly has..and now I know what Asr means when he says that this woman is gold...and I am honoured to be the one to be given the privilege to chat with you Khushi....really I mean it...thst was amazing...and look at all the love that's coming your way now...the comments are flooding in....",and Arnav now gestures her to wind up and Radha nods as she says – " ok guys...we are signing off now..."

And Khushi now takes a deep breathe and sips on some water and turns to the camera and she says with a small smile – " wait...just a second.. I would like to thank everyone for the support and love being sent my way...and to all the Dementors and lord Voldemorts that still want to come my way...I'd say...your most welcome..because I have the elder wand of love with me and I know exactly how to cast a patronus...and just for all you Harry Potter fans out there...i totally want to admit that if i really was a wizard my patronus would that be of my Hoodie guy holding that bat of his on the pitch..you know what I mean guys done you??",and she looks at Arnav as she says – " cmon hoodie guy we gotta end this in the way we planned..."

Arnav couldnt beleive this girl but he smiles himself now as he kisses on Khushis hand and she kisses on his hand and Khushi turns to the camera and they both swish their hand in like aa wand like movement and Khushi winks as she says– "expecto patronus...", and Radha chuckles now as she asks the cameraman to now roll it off and he does and she herself now goes upto Khushi and pulls her in a hug as she says – " wow....wow....wow....are you ok???that was so courageous Khushi....so so courageous off you..."

And everyone from the team now starts to come to Khushi immediately and Arnav looks at Ravi across as he shouts out now hugging Khushi hard– " Ravi we need to track that bloody username and IP address...and have them arrested on the grounds of cyber bullying at its highest level...that was way below the belt and I am not sparing it..."

Ravi nods and yells from across " I am on it even before you said it..."

Khushi now looks up at Arnav and she says honestly tiptowing to his ear – " gosh Arnav ...please..can we talk about this later..please...I just need to be alone for like five minutes...",and she turns around and looks at everyone from the team smiling at her lovingly and she says with a brave smile – " guys five minutes please...I'll just be back...I need to use the washroom...you all did see the amount of water I had through the chat right...my bladder will give up on me...if I dont run to the loo right now...", she finished with a nervous smile, her eyes surely giving her away that all she wanted to do was just be alone and cry a little right now.

And everyone chuckles and nods now as Khushi now excuses herself and strides into the nearest room and Arnav gestures to everyone that had just be back too because he had to be with Khushi and everyone nods for they all knew that this innocent girl had surely excused herself because she wanted to finally let out her tears...the tears shed been holding onto very bravely for the last ten minutes of the chat specially.

And everyone in that room along with Half the sensible positive people who had seen this live chat Live knew exactly what ASR meant when he said that when he first met Khushi – he knew he had struck Gold.

For this Girl truly was special and remarkable in her own unique way and that display of strength on camera live for the very first time all through the live chat and especially towards the end had won over all their Hearts.

...........

Arnav has locked up the room door and is back to banging the bathroom door as he says – " khushi please...open the door dammit...you promised me that you wouldnt cry by yourself...its just us in here...please...open the door...dammit now...its been teo minutes since youv been in there...."

And Khushi now opens the door and tears are streaming down her face and she looks at Arnav and she says – " hoodie guy yes I am crying...but I really needed to pee as well....I didnt lock myself up ok...I was peeing for real..."

And Arnav now pulls her into a instant hug and he brushes on her hair lovingly and kisses her forhead – " god Sunshine....are you ok?? Are you ok Love???"

Khushi hugs Arnav hard and tears now flow her eyes continuously as she says against his heart – " I am trying to be Hoodie guy...still feeling vulnerable within...I feel like I need to cry a little for about five ten minutes maybe because those last two questions especially that last one...goshh...so much hate...so much hate at me..I pity that person...really...I do..."

Arnav hugs her hard and rubs her hair lovingly- " she shhh...I know I understand that was too brutal..k swear to god I wouldnt have been able to even think of an answer like you did in that moment...my head literally freezed...you have no idea what youv done Love...youv won a million hearts today...trust me...on that...Love you are bloody amazing and I am so so so proud of you..."

Khushi hugs Arnav hard now as she says through her tears – ".I will surely focus on all that love and not on this Voldemort...but I just want to give my vulnerability its moments...I need to keep crying for five minutes more maybe...will you hold me tighter please???Arnav please hug me tighter..."

Arnav holds her and hugs her as tight now and just let's her cry her heart out in his arms and minutes later Khushi finally looks up and cups his face lovingly and she says – " thank you...for everything you said in there..."

Arnav kisses her hand as he looks at her gobsmacked – " are you freaking crazy??.dont you dare thank me dammit..."

And Khushi now cups her Hoodie guys face as she says – " arnav I feel better now but I think I need a little drink before I finally step out with my armour on again..."

Arnav nods as he suggests – " sure I'll get you some water to tea or coffee??they have a mini bar in this room too do you want alcohol??"

Khushi wraps her hands around his neck – " no dammit you know I dont need alcohol to intoxicate myself when I have you...I need you... I need a drink of Dumbledore and his phoneix's legendary scotch – the ocean mix Edition....what i mean dammit is that I need you to kiss me now...and dont stop for the next ten minutes maybe....just kiss me please....deep and hard...."

And Arnav does exactly as asked by his Sunshine.

He kisses her deep and hard ,pouring in all the emotion into the kiss that was full of raw and unadulterated Love and Khushi kisses him back with all her heart and soul as she pulls him closer into her and he pulls her closer into him.

And Time Stood Still in this raw moment in between the two and No words were needed in this moment of time as they kissed each other out of pure Love and emotion..as madly and Insanely and deeply like they always do.

For.

It really was true!

There Tale was a One – that was Destined in the Stars!

A Love So Pure and Deep – that it Would Shine through so strong that it really had the power to even put Gold to shame!

What could BE more Precious than a Love So Pure and Magical???

This was the Real Treasure.

And.

Such was a Tale of their Love – which was truly written by the Brightest of the Love Angel's and the Stars – Destined to Unfold right here on Planet Earth for the world to watch and behold!
