CHAPTER 2: Kuch Khaas Hai Kuch Paas Hai

Gupta's were a happy Family without much worry of their income. Khushi was working as it was her dream. Her income was saved in her account by Sasi for her Future. But this fact was hidden from Khushi. Only Sasi's income was taken for household. They stay in a 3 BHK apartment in Delhi that Sasi bought few years ago as he was rewarded with bonus for his years of loyalty. So they were Rock Stone Apartments' Happy family. They stayed in ground floor. And there was a common garden behind their house were Sasi and Garima used to spend time alone mainly before Sasi left to his office.

Khushi was ready to leave for her office. She is a senior designer in MEHRA FASHION HOUSE.

"Amma, Have you got my lunch box ready?" Khushi yelled from her room.

Khushi was in a hurry as she was late but her mother was not co operating with her.

Khushi: Amma. WHERE ARE YOU? I AM GETTING LATE

But she was again replied only silence

Khushi: Ashu, Ashu.

Calling her brother she went to her room. There she saw him sleeping in an awkward position very similar to hers.

She went and hit on his butt.

Ashwin: Ouch Jiji, that hurts. Subah subah kyun neend kharab kar rhi hain aap(why are you shouting in the morning itself).

Khushi: Ashu, You don't have classes? Why are sleeping at this time. Its already 7:50.

Ashwin: oh jiji. Don't you remember that I said that I don't have classes today as our professor is not in the town. So I am planning to rest.

Ashwin said cheekily and immediately shut his mouth receiving an angry glare from Khushi.

Khushi: Did you see Amma bauji? She is not at all replying. I am getting late.

Ashwin: aww my poor Jiji, did you check in the garden behind our apartment? They may be romancing there.

Khushi: Shut up Ashu. Ok I am leaving now.

Ashwin: Jiji, did you get your travel plan ready?

Khushi(confused): what?

Ashwin: Jiji, don't say me that you forgot what is tomorrow.

Khushi: Will you come straight to the point Ashu?

Ashwin: What else. Its the day of your Meerut visit Jiji. You have been going there on the very same day for past 7 years in the name of visiting Dadaji first and after his death in the name of friend.

Ashwin said frown his brows.

Khushi: Haan haan. I remember. I have made arrangements long back as usual. Ok now. I am getting late. Bye. And don't keep sleeping. You will become Motu.

Khushi said and ran out locking the door.

She went to the garden and saw Sasi and Garima sitting on one of the benches there. she went silently behind them and thought of scaring them but stopped hearing their conversation.

Sasi: Leave it Garima. Its her life. She has to take the decision. Why don't we give her some time?

Garima: No Sasiji, Its not that. I am not forcing her. but she is already 25. moreover she is working in a fashion house ji. What if..?

Garima dragged her sentence showing her fear clearly.

Sasi: Don't you believe in Khushi? Even if she is in love with someone, she wont take any decision without our knowledge. I have that much faith in her. so stop worrying too much sweetheart. Now see off your lovely husband to office. Come on. 2 bache ki maa aur 26 saal se meri biwi ho. Ab mujhse kesi sharam(being mother of 2 and my wife for 26 years, what is there to be shy with me)?

Sasi asked with naughty grin.

A light crimson shade spread across Garima's neck and cheek as she lowere her face to Sasi's stubble cheek leaving a peck there.

"AHEM AHEM"

They heard someone clearing their throat and turned to see Khushi grinning with her arms folded across her chest.

Sasi: Erm.. erm. Garima, I am getting late. Bye

He said with his eyes lower and rushed passing khushi without glancing at her.

Garima: erm.. Khushi, did you take your lunch?

She asked smiling awkwardly.

Khushi: hmm Hmm.. let me sort this out later. Now I am also leaving. BYE

Saying Khushi pecked Garima's cheek soundly and ran leaving Garima to chuckle

Garima: Pagli.

In the apartment Parking area

Khushi: Bauji Bauji. Please listen to me. Tomorrow I have to go to Meerut. So please handle Amma.

She said with a puppy face.

Sasi: Titaliya? Yeh kya har saal Meerut jaa rahe hain aap? Kuch batati bhi nahi. Kabi dadaji ke naam kabi dost ke naam. Lekin 7 saal se is din vahan jati hain aap. Esa konsa dost hai jo hum nahi jante? Kuch batayenge bhi(What is this every year? You go to Meerut. You don't say anything properly. Sometimes in name of grandfather or sometimes in name of some friend. But for past 7 years you have been going there this particular day. Lease tell me who is that friend you got without our knowledge? Will you please explain)?

Sasi poured out all his irritation. Khushi was sad about hiding the fact. But she dint have enough courage to say them about her visit.

Khushi: Bauji, Now only I heard you saying Amma that you have faith in me. So please trust me. I just love to visit that place and as I said tomorrow is the birthday of a very special friend there. So I always visit Meerut this day. Please bauji. Handle amma. I have already planned the travel and Tomorrow as usual you will goto office by my Scooty while I will take your car. Acha now BYE.

Khushi gave Sasi a bear hug and flew away in her scooty.

Khushi reached MEHRA FASHION HOUSE and rushed to her cabin wishing the others on her way.

"GOOD MORNING Bitiya" she heard the voice of an elderly man and turned smiling.

Khushi: HP Chacha. Good morning. What are you doing so early here?

HP: Nothing Bitiya. You know that our Mehra fashion house is been taken over by some other corp. So I am here to check all the files and accounts to be submitted. Vese Bitiya you know that your best friend Lavanya is getting married in few days?

Khushi: haan chacha. I know.

HP: She is getting married to the cousin brother of our new boss.

Khushi: What?

HP: yes bitiya. I just now came to know. But the take over has nothing to do with this marriage. Anyways bitiya Lavanya has given invitations to everyone and she insisted you to be present mainly.

Khushi: Ok chacha. I will take care. Vese Chacha, Tomorrow I will not be here, you know right?

HP: Haan bitiya. I have asked Sim and Pam to take care of the designing tomorrow. Now leave for work.

They both went to their cabins and work went smooth. The day ended in routine way and Next day was filled with fresh Aroma for Khushi. She left Delhi in Sasi's car ignoring Gatima's Rants.

She drove the car humming one of her favorite song of her favorite Salman Khan as she reached her Destination.

She parked the car in front of the big black gate which had a name plate

HAWA MAHAL.

Khushi inhaled the fresh air and smiled beautifully. It was a government grain storage now. But still the owners had the permission to visit the place. She went inside the gate and went to the big garden behind. It had many colorful flower plants. She went near one of the red rose plant and touched the rose and caressed it softly. Whenever she came here, a Red rose would have bloomed to welcome her. A smile spread in her face. She went around the garden and then chatted with the people working there. She had Lunch with them and went for a walk around the fields around the Palace.

She checked the Watch for time. It showed 10 minutes to 4 in evening. She ran to the Hawa Mahal holding her simple Green Ghaghra similar to the one she wore 8 years back. She reached the staircase and checked the watch again.

It displayed 1 minute to 4. she stood in the fourth step from the top and leaned on the holding closing her eyes. The big antique clock in the palace strike 4 and Khushi smiled wide having her eyes still closed.

I will make you mine soon Princess. SOON.

She heard the husky voice which still had the effect to make her tremble.

Then slowly she opened her eyes and her beautiful doe eyes mirrored the disappointment clearly.

Khushi: Where are you my prince? I have been waiting for the moment when you will make me yours for past 8 years. I have been visiting this very place every year on the same day. But I dint even get a glimpse of you. Will you still remember me?

Khushi thought to herself and closed her eyes.

His face tilted and neared her face. Hi breath fanned her lips. In a sudden movement he caught her waist in one hand and cupped her nape with other and gave a quick peck on her lips.

Khushi smiled at the memory this very place gave her.

Khushi: u remember me or not, I am only for my prince. No one else.

She said and moved to her car to leave to Delhi in her car.

LONDON, 12 pm.

A Black Limousine car came to halt in front of a big building. Reporters blocked the doors on the car. The window came down and a man with Ray-ban Aviators turned to his bodyguards. They immediately cleared the group of reporters making way.

The man got down from the car and stood facing the building. His perfectly gelled hair and black three piece suit added to his perfection. He removed his aviators and revealed his caramel eyes in which any girl would love to drown. But it was devoid of any emotions. He turned to his manager who came to him at that moment and started moving inside the building as he questioned his manager.

Man: Aman, have you called the Mehra group in India?

Aman: Yes, The paperwork are completed. Just official take over is left. Once you reach India, you have to just sign. But one problem is that they are demanding something.

Man: Who has the guts to do that to ASR?

Aman: listen ASR, their demand is about the staffs working under them.

ASR: That can be decided later. Just give them more money and carry on the take over. Nothing should come in the way of AR or ASR. Got that? Get my travel arranged to India. And also Inform Mami that I will reach the wedding on time.

Saying he moved to his glass cabin crossing all the staffs with clenched jaws and straight face.
