Khushi stood looking out of window, Garima understood her point of view well then buaji and Babuji.

Garimaji we are not saying she is wrong. For God Sake do not try to understand it nor did Deviyanji consider her wrong. We all three were angry with Khushi for lying to us. For hiding her pains from us. Why don't you understand my child was in so much pain and we were all living satisfactorily in Lucknow everything is alright now? I told you that time also i don't trust that boy with my daughter but jiji said to give him chance. Shashi was angry and frustrated his daughter was in pain and he couldn't heal her.


I didn't want our Young beautiful girl to get marked as divorced babuwa...we live in a society of narrow minded people. They wouldn't let her live peacefully. If i had slightest of idea it was all sham, i wouldn't have let him breathe next moment. Buaji spoke in venom filled tone.


Buaji please don't talk like this. Khushi spoke quickly.


Why khushi...what that snake had done to our doll i would have pray to God to take him bac...Khushi placed her fingers on buaji's lips. She tried to hide her tears shaking her head.


Please don't say like this...please. Khushi cried loudly and ran out of room.
(why she did this??? when she hates him? sandy is making it more and more difficult RIGHT😳)

Garima gave small. See garima see how she can behave like this after what he did with her. Shashi complaint put some sense in her.

She is in love with him shashiji. garima tried to reason.
I didn't got this love thing here. How can she fall in love with a person like that. What i heard today she was grilling him in venomous words then where this dieases of loves come. Shashi spoke angrily.

You can never understand a womens heart. Garima reasoned him

Tch i don't even wish to, go tell her she after payal's delivert we'll file her divorce No Arguments. Shashi gritted.

Khushi is an adult, she can decides whats good for her and what's not. We are not going to stay besides her forever. If you think she is a small baby then she has to grow over night and decide what's good for her and what's not. According to me she is mature enough to decide her future.

She placed her hand on his shoulder. Don't force your decisions on her. We are not fully and completely aware of her these 10 months of her marriage. Other than few facts. Do you trust her shashiji. Garima asked calmly.

Shashi sigh and left. Garima knew he will not agree with her completely Possessive father he is but from now onwards he will not force his decisons on Khushi. He will let her take a lead.

Buaji followed him calling her beloved NK shaking her head.


Garima saw paler Khushi sitting in garden looking up in sky. She went and sat beside her. Khushi saw her Amma hugged her dearly. Amma i don't know what i should do. I am confused. My mind isn't working now...i am tired. I am tired now. My marriage, my precious relation is on verge to ...break she choke a bit on her words.

My doll i understand your state. Garima caressed her scalp trying to soothe her pain. relax betiya and think Calmly. Don't pressurize your mind.


Amma i tried alot to fight back but i lost it all, she sobbed. He hurts me, he give me pains, insult me, my upbringing, my class, my parents ...everything...and other side he shows he care for me, his small gestures shows he care, he is not a man of words, he doesn't know how to express, Amma i don't know what do to do.


Amma i hate him for loving him after what all happen. In this world after you people he is the only one who belongs to me. I don't know what i have landed myself in. It's very difficult. Her tone and body language was telling Garima how deeply he had affected her.


Khushi betiya calm down. Nothing happened ok. Don't worry, take your time and decide. I promise whatever you will decide we will respect it.


Amma...i failed you people. I am not a good daughter, not at all good for anyone. I only bring sorrows for others. My name is only Khushi but in reality i snatch others happiness. Khushi hide her face in her palms and cried.



Shush don't talk like a looser betiya. You are my brave daughter, you cannot loose like this. Get your self together. I will help you to sort this out. Don't worry about anyone remember i am there for you and will always support you.

Do you trust your Amma. Garima asked. Khushi nodded. Khushi you know mothers are bestest friend of her kids. Why because advices and suggestions mother gives to her kids are more honest sincere and without any mean benefits behind them. Whenever you feel like talking i am always there for you. She placed Khushi's head in her lap.

Go to sleep Khushi you will feel better, come lets go in we will talk about it later. I don't want you to take any rash decision and later on you regret it. Hmm Garima spoke cupping her face. She took her inside tuck her in bed. Caressed her head until she fell asleep.



*_*_*



Arnav was driving his Suv rashly on road in stormy rain. His grip on staring was extremly tight, her knuckles were pale white. He don't know what exactly he feels at the moment. He don't know how to take in this situation. Everything happen all of sudden, too shocking and surprising.


Khushi yelled at him, accused him of things which he did to her, Elders to get to know about it, Shashi uncle declaring divorce decision and taking her away from RM.

With every though his speed was increasing. He cared less it was dangerous for him as well.

Flashes of angry Khushi, crying Khushi, pleading Khushi, Khushi leaving him, came again and again infront of him. He pushed break, his car moved uncontoablly in circular motion screeching loudly finally coming to halt parallely. He came out and screamed on top of his voice, he turned around punch the bonnet of car.



I lost her...Ma...I lost her...forever. he screamed slumping down on road crying loudly. His eyes turn blood red.

Ma...woh chali gaye mujhay chod kar. Main nay ussay kho deya hamesha kay ley. (ma...she left me. I lost her forever) He stood up walk to back passanger door, opening it he grabbed scotch bottle. Opening the cap carlessly he started gulping sore, burning drink down his throat ignoring how bad it was for his sugar.

He kept drinking trying to forget her...which was nearly impossible. He threw empty bottle on road breaking the glass into pieces. He looked up at sky spotted a bright star.

Ma...she told me you're up there looking at me, you will also be angry with me like others are...you too want to break all ties with me like others want...Ma why did she stayed back for so long when she had to leave today...Why don't she realise this I love her Ma. I LOVE HER DAMMIT!!!...Ma why everyone tell me i reminds them of Alok Malik...i am not at all good Ma...i know you too will be angry at me for hurting her...she is beautiful...very beautiful...i gave her tears...Ma i feared same...i want her to go long back...i want to save her from beast inside me...but she is one stubborn girl i ever met...now when she is leaving my heart already carve for her, want to hide her from whole world...ma come back please...I Miss you...I need you. No one needs me...!!!

He collapse with that and fell in deep sleep.

He didn't remember how long he was there soaking in rain. He open his eyes when he heard constant horn. He open his eyes found a big truck just a few feet away from him. He heard man cursing him abusing him.


He couldn't help and chuckle at him he was no different...with unsteady steps and head blowing headache he sat in his suv and drove towards his office apartment.

Opening the door he straight away ran to bathroom to throwing up. He was feeling sick with extra consumption of Alcohol. Washing his face he went to bedroom threw his aching lifeless body on bed.

*_*_*

Next Morning

Khushi enter RM she met Payal Anjali Akash Shalani Karan. Nani came and sat down a while later. She looked little worried.

Arrey Khushi if i knew you were going to stay at Amma babuji's house i would stayed back with you. Payal said with beautiful fresh smile.

Khushi gave smal smile, i didnt plan woh bas Babuji insisted so i went there. Khushi wrapped her conversation quickly and went to look into things.


She enters their room and found it in same way as she left yesterday. Where is he? She question herself.

Nani enter the room Khushi betiya call Aman and ask him where is Chottey he didn't came home last night.

He didn't come home last night, khushi mumbled in shock. Call aman and ask him i couldn't call him i didnt had his number when i tried in office sometimes back he wasn't there.

Khushi called Arnav first his mobile was not reachable. She then called Aman and inquired him about Arnav. He didnt knew where he was. Khushi asked him to look for him.

What did he said Nani asked her when she saw him ending the call.

He don't know where is he . Don't worry naniji Amanji will find him and call us. Khushi assured nani. You go downstairs and sit with them i'll find him.


Anjali and shalani are leaving in a while for shopping. Akash will leave for office in a while. Let me know when he calls. Khushi nodded.




Khushi kept trying his number it was unreachable. Khushi's heart grip in fear.

Where is he? God please protect him. Please keep him safe.


Aman called her in half an hour.
Khushi Maam, sir is in office apartment since 4 in morning. Lakhan told me he came very late there and maybe he is sleeping right now.

Khushi sign in relief. Was he alright Amanji?
Maam lakhan told me he was drunk and he wasn't well.

Khushi gasp audibly. She cut the call and walk down stairs. Nani was sitting alone in living room.

Naniji woh Amanji called he said Arnavji is in office apartment. He came there very late and he was...she hesitate for a moment, he was drunk badly. Nani's eyes welled up with tears.

I'll go and see him. Khushi said she took step ahead to leave feeling tug on her wrist she stop and saw nani held her wrist.

No betiya...please stay, i don't want you to go infront of him not now atleast avoid him as much as you can, stay away from him. I will go and check him. Nani spoke with finalty.

Khushi felt an unknown pang in her heart.

Don't go infront of him.

*_*_*

Guest for wedding started arriving. Mamiji's sister came from Austrailia after 8 years. She was here with her son Nk and his indian friend Neil who came back after a long time.

Namaste Naniji, massiji Nk greeted. Nani smiled at him and blessed him with her warm wishes.

Nk betwa how are you, hows your family doing. Where is niddhi betiya. Naniji inquired.

Everyone is fine Naniji and I am here. Hola Niddhi massi entered.

Both sisters met cried their heavy make layers off. Making everyone suppress their smiles at both funny looking sister. They pictured scene of sisters which were separated in childhood mela and met now.😆

Manorama enough you're makeupiya is all gone and your dark circles are visible now. Nani taunted her. Mami pull back quickly but looking at nani's smile she twisted her face.

These are my bahu's Mami introduced, Payal tried to bend to take her blessings but massi stopped her. Khushi bend and took her blessing.

Koi humako bhi bharkao in donno charming ladies say. Nk spoke. Payal and Khushi's brow knit in frown.

Anjali laughed NK bhai you're still same and your hindi ae well. It's not bharkao its milwao.

Namastee hum Khushi...
Your're Khushiji that nannav's wife. He saw Khushi giving confuse looks. I mean Arnav's, Khushi gave small smile. Now i can see why Nannav broke his own made rule of not marrying anyone. Khushi's bright smile faded a little.


Nannav meray bhai...there you are. I was about to ask your beautiful wife where is your blast furness husband.

Everyone giggled one look from Arnav and all giggle dies.

Angry Nannav wasn't much changed other than a fact that he was married now. Nk hugged Arnav much to his annoyance...Thats what NK love to do.

Arnav bent and took Niddhi massi's blessing.

Nannav when are you giving us good news i was expecting you to give us good news first. Look the beautiful wife you have.

Arnav and Khushi exchange a look and next moment Arnav looked away. Khushi saw his tired face, those eye bags under his eyes...his red eyes.

Nk betwa go and freshenup. I'll tell HP to get tea and snacks ready. Nani spoke

*_*_*



Nk and niddhi massi were staying in one of the guest room out of 4. As soon days passed guest were coming so all guest rooms were occupied. Nani had shifted to Anjali's room.


Following week was busy for Khushi she saw Arnav for quite a sometimes but both ignored each others. Arnav was busy with preparations later he went to apartment to sleep. He was trying to stay away from family sittings as much as he can.


Whole house was loaded with guest from lucknow, banaras, mumbai and few were from delhi as well. Payal being pregnant was supposed to sit at one place but much to Akash's annoyance she tried to help Khushi as much as she can. Manorama just wait for first ray of sun to appear so she could run to her spa for treatment. Nani tried to help as much as she can. New household were hired specially for wedding.

Everyone was enjoying atmosphere of wedding, music, dholak, clapps, giggles, and much more RM was like someone blowed life in it.



Khushiji!! Meet my friend Neil. Nk spoke Cheerfully.

Khushi nodded yes

Neil: Garima kaki your Amma right.

Neil continued her sentence, Later when my Dad got promotion we shifted to Indira nagar but after 2 years dad sent me to Australia So we lost contact and here I am standing after 13 years and infront of me my friend is standing in her saasural. Neil chuckle

Khushi smiled she turn her head and her eyes met fire spitting ones. She felt goose bump on her body. His red angry eyes...Why is he giving me angry looks...Khushi turned and left. I have better works then to fight back him. Khushi had ignored him throughout since that night...She felt his eyes on her occasionally when he was home.

*~*~*

Nani saw Arnav's state she could see he was dying to talk to Khushi but the limit to which they all can help they all did...they forced him, guided him, advised him and suggested him many things but he cared less of and lose every chance now he himself has to make his way or give up on her forever.

Its wedding going on in house, for time being she want to concentrate on it. Anjali betiya is going away forever. Her daughter's shadow her beloved only daughter is going to get married in few days. Nani felt Ratna beside her giving her teary smile. Tear slip down Nani controlled a sob. She went back to her room to have a moment alone in memory of her only daughter.

(No more help from family, Arnav betwa has to move his lazy ass himself😆😆)

*~*~*

Khushi bhabhi, Hp called her. Few people came from Arnav bhaiyya's office they are calling you. Khushi nodded, She excused herself from guest went to check.

Good Afternoon maam, these packages of wedding dresses ordered to Designers. Anjali maam's dresses your's and Payal maam's. Other are already delivered this morning.

Yes I got that package. Infact you all did good job I really liked them.

Thankyou madam.

Anjali and Payal enter the room to check their dresses.

They checked their dresses and liked them all. audible Gasp attract them all.

This isn't my dress Aliya ji. Khushi mouth wide open in shock.

Khushiji are you sure Anjali asked.

Ofcourse di my Anarkali was white with silver embroidery.

Maam you can talk to sir about it. We don't know much. When we're leaving office, he told us to call him if some problem comes up. Asistant of designer spoke.

Thankyou you may leave Anjali spoke to them.

Khushi we have less time and changing dress will only waste your time more, its pretty and you'll look very beautiful in it. Payal assured her. You already have to look after a lot I already feel guilty for making you look after all arrangements alone.

Uhhu jiji is it pregnancy mood swing or now a days you are turning more and more stupid. You know I love to work in house of wedding. It just give me pleasure and unspoken happiness.

Pagal payal hit her forehead lovingly.

Khushiji why don't you speak to Chottey here take this, phone is ringing...i am coming nani is calling me. Anjali left in hurry.

Khushi held mobile in her hand, her heart beat thousand time in a minute...she felt knots getting tie in her stomach...goosebump over her body.

Hello Di did staff came with packages. Arnav spoke first.

*dhak dhak dhak dhak*

Hello Di

*dhak dhak dhak dhak*

Hum Khushi bol rahay hai...(I am khushi speaking) Khushi spoke softly trying to control her heart which was beating like any moment it will come out in her lap. She was blushing for no reason.

Hmm he said softly.

My wedding dress...its changed...i am mean its not what I asked designer to make. Khushi completed her sentence with difficulty, feeling nervous all of sudden for no reasons.

I didn't like that dress for you so changed it. Any problem. Arnav said bluntly.

Khushi gape innocently turning beet red. She never on earth expected him to select dress for him not after that evening. She cut the call.

*~*~*

It was Sangeet day.

Arnav arranged function in their farmhouse. Payal, Khushi were ready by 7:30pm, both reached in pandal. Payal was wearing maroon Anarkali with silver embroidery on neck line and sleeves. She didn't selected much heavy dresses because of 7 month of pregnancy.

Where as Khushi was wearing light green with red and golden combination lehgas choli. She has minimum embroidery on it. Wearing long earing and matching maang tikka, her hairs had loose curls. She looked simple yet beautiful. Arnav loved the way she was dresses. She complimented this dress according to him. Only word he could mumble was...Breathtaking. Arnav who was wearing metallic black three piece Armani suit.

Function started guest started arriving. Arnav held Khushi's hand meeting guests. Thousand current passed down their bodies. He had invited many people from fashion industry, tele industry, and few from Bollywood. Arnav Singh Raizada's sister's wedding was high profiled. Media outside pandal was waiting for him to have few clicks and small interview with him and his wife.

Khushi and Arnav were very busy, they didn't got much time to dance with Tia and other family members who were dancing. Arnav held Khushi's hand in his they were moving around huge pandal meeting people and looking after arrangements.

Khushi liked it...so as Arnav . He want to start a fresh with new memories. He decided to talk to her once they get free from wedding. He won't let her go away easily. He is Arnav Singh Raizada and Giving up is not in his dictionary. He smiled looking at her.

Dressed to kill, He smiled more at her.

Tia came to Khushi and Arnav. Arnav bhaiyya you have been roaming around since 4 hours with your wife. Can I borrow her now? She didn't even dance with us. How boring you have turned her. Tia pouted.

Tia you can take her we are done and I will look after who are left behind. Arnav let go of Khushi's hand.

Khushi looked at him, Tia pulled her away but she kept eye lock with him until he gets lost in crowd. Khushi liked how he held her hand and introduced her as his wife Mrs Arnav Singh Raizada. An involuntary genuine smile adores her face; along with crimson shade darken her blush.

Khushi danced with Tia a little on Mehndi laga kay Rakhna...Anjali who was dressed in light pink A line shirt with long slit from under the bust to the border of shirt. Maroon bodice added to beauty of dress. With Pink sharara having three embroidery patches at border of sharara. Pink dubpatta with all four corners embroidered with silver zardosi and work. Anjali looked very pretty. Karan who sat beside her was wearing Maroon kurta with slight embroidery on it

Nani, mami, yash, mamaji, Shalani everyone took their turns to dance accept Arnav

*~*~*

Betiya Anjali's wedding has started...women in late 70's spoke with amused looks on her face.
