I don't know where to begin!!! (Actually I do...just using the expression to emphasise!!)😆😆

Oh so sweet...my Phool you are the bestest!

That was an amazing update marathon!!

I loved all of them. I'm hoping Arnav and Khushi's relationship is on the mend, but I can never tell with you...😛

'Many a slip, between the cup and the lip', so I'll just have to wait and read!!! I don't mind that though, your writing is becoming like a fix for me!!!

Hmm! so my writing is like a coffee, a drug or a...habit...bad to have but good for a while for it does give one a high

Arnav and Khushi's kiss was so passionate and romantic. I loved the way they forgot everything and were so lost in the moment and each other.

Payal's thappar comment was cute...😊

Thanks darling i like subtle humor and try to give some wherever possible

The description of the set up for the ghazals and sher-o-shayari was fantastic dear. You set the mood perfectly for the reader.

And then comes the Vru special at the end of the last chapter, a maha twist!!👏👏

Wow thanks now it is a Vru special huh! i am so honored to hear that... i try to be creative...
aur phir ye lucknow ke hai..so may be a bit cliched huh!!

I liked it how Arnav forgot everything that moment; and frantically ran to be with Khushi. I do wish he would just accept what she means to him!!!

The arrogant so and so...apna ego aade le aata hai!

Really looking forward to the next part angel. Firstly I hope Khushi's not hurt too badly, and secondly, I want to know how Arnav's going to justify his reaction to the family and Lavanya!!!

Thanks a million for all the PMs.

My pleasure the least i can do, hmm what is he going to do i donno but i hope all that you expect and then some more

Thoda lamba ho gaya na...par kya karun, jab likhne wali ne jadu kiya hai, to uska asar padhnewalon par thoda to hoga na...😉

no not at all

the more long..the better for that give me the impetus to write..and a word, a line a comment and a conversation go a long way with me

kal asar dekha tha na!!

toh aaj tum meri inspiration..and nagz..mera fertiliser hai..toh i shall be back with an update

Chapter 27



Nani and Garima tried to come to Khushi to help put pressure on the side of the head from where she was bleeding profusely, but he told harshly, "Choona mat usse, dijiye mein karta hoon."

He took the white hanky from his Nani and pressed it against the wound, murmuring words to let her that he was with her. "Mein hoon, yahin, yahin hoon."

There were tears running down his face. Anjali came to sit next to him and put a hand on his shoulder and he said, "Di, ye bhi maa ki tarah'mujhe chorrke jaayegi'" and he put his head on her shoulder.

The paramedics came just then and tried to take Khushi away but he did not let go. They had to coax him away and still he held on to her hand. He did even look away for a minute as the paramedic did first aid and asked questions about what happened. Arnav just stared at Khushi willing her to come to for he feared the worst. His mother had left him, now Khushi. He knew he should stay away from emotions, it just went to show that he and love are not meant to be. It would have been so much easier if he just hated Khushi. So much easier.

But he could not let go. He went to the hospital with the Ambulance holding Khushi's hand. Even Payal and Aakash had come with him but it was he who held her hand firmly and murmuring words to let her know that he was waiting for her, he was there for her.

When they took her into the emergency room, he requested doctor to let him be there. They sutured the wound and told her that it looked like shock and probably a severe concussion was the damage done for the Cat Scan showed no other damage but they wanted to keep her overnight. There was no other injury but she was going to be severely bruised.

The doctor said as he looked at Arnav, "She is one lucky woman, also to have such a loving and caring husband. Just take it very easy for a few days. She should be coming around by morning, but if not then we will see if we need to do more tests. Don't worry too much she will get better." The doctor instructed nurse the medications to be given and left the private room they had shifted Khushi in after the procedure.

Payal was about to correct him but Aakash just put a hand on hers to stall her. She looked at him and he just indicated with his eyes to let it rest.

"Thank you Doctor." Aakash said as he shook his hand and took Payal out of the room. Everyone had gathered around the ward including Lavanya and her family. Garima and Shashi went in to check on their daughter but the rest were advised to not disturb. Arnav refused to leave her side and it was Aakash, Payal who stayed in the hospital with Arnav in the room holding her hand through the night.

Payal had shed her tears of fear on Aakash's shoulder once everyone had gone and it was a tender kiss from Aakash that had ebbed the flow. Payal had felt secure and safe in his arms and knew that she had found the one person she had waited all her life. But the one topic they did not talk about by mutual understanding was Arnav and Khushi. They both knew that there was something here but tomorrow was better suited to ask all the questions they had to Arnav and his quizzical behaviour towards Khushi and the insistence on marrying Lavanya. There seemed a disconnect here and Aakash knew he had to get some sense drilled into that pigheaded friend of his. He seemed to be on a self destruct mode and was going to take Khushi and Lavanya with him if nothing was done about it.

Lavanya had seen the whole scenario and knew what was happening and knew that the always in control Mr Arnav Singh Raizada had well and truly fallen in love. She could see the stark fear on his face, the desperation, the helplessness on seeing her lifeless form in his arms. She knew what she had suspected to be true and it was about time that she put an end to this charade Arnav was hell bent on going through.

She was going to talk to Arnav and call the wedding off. She told her parents of the news and was not shocked when they readily agreed. No one knew about the contract between Arnav and Lavanya but they could also see that theirs was not a love match as it had been so believed.

They knew the new family member played an important role in Arnav's life and that was not of a sister.

It was wee hours of the morning when Arnav who had slept on the stool with his head next to hers on the bed and hand held firmly when he felt her stir. Alert to the slightest movement, he looked up and touched his hand to her cheek saying, "Khushi'. ankhein kholo'"

"Sab andhera hai'" he heard Khushi murmur feebly as she opened her eyes and turned towards his voice.
