Sorry about the missing updates everyone. Been super busy and didn't get a chance to do much. I have also fixed all the threads to all the chapters so I am sorry about the little mix up. It's the weekend now, so hopefully I can come up with a few more updates to keep you guys going! Enjoy and please leave a comment :)
"Kushi are you ready to get started on the Nursery?" she heard a husky voice behind her say. She immediately knew who it was and spun around with a big smile on her face.
"Ok we can sneak out now since everyone is busy. But I have someone I want you to meet before the night is over, so we gotta be quick ok?"
"Who would that be?" Arnav asked with a worried look on his face. As far as what Abhay had told him, she has stayed away from men in general so he was curious to find out who it was.
"Just a friend, so please don't ask me anymore questions. Also, did you get everything sent over to Jiji's and Jiju's room?" Kushi asked with a tone of voice that sounded like she was not going to take NO for an answer.
"Of course your highness. Om Prakash is waiting for further orders" he said smirking at the thought of how confident and comfortable she had become with him as well as her new Independence over the last year. There was a powerful mature beautiful woman standing in front of him, yet he saw a twinkle in her eyes that reminded him of the mischievous girl that is always hiding behind the gorgeous face.
"Ok then lets get started" she said as she snuck out of the party and went in the direction of Payal and Akash's room with Arnav trailing behind her.
______________________________
As they both entered the room, Kushi notice all the packages on the floor including the 3 fully assembled cribs in different wood tones - White, Black & Brown.
"What on earth did you do???" she asked with wide eyes
"Ummm... I got everything that I thought the baby would need, but I couldn't pick a colour so yeah.." he said looking at all the things on the floor
"But THREE of EVERYTHING???" She asked again wondering how crazy the man standing in front of her is.
"Ok can we please stop doing this and get started?" he asked uncomfortably
"Ok ok lets get started" she said while going through the packages and picking out what she wanted for the nursery. After she figured out what furniture was to be used, she started picking out the rest of the decor for the Nursery.
Arnav stood quietly watching her as she walked around animatedly. He wondered if she would yell at him if he does the same for their baby. "Our Baby" he whispered.
"Well what are you doing over there? Lets get started!! We don't have much time left Arnav Ji!" she shrieked yelling at him and snapping him out of his dream.
He looked at Om Prakash who was watching them from the entrance and told him to come help him move everything while Kushi walked around getting everything else out of the packaging. Once the crib was moved to it's rightful place facing the window, she laid out all the bedding lovingly and placed all the toys for her niece. She then realized that there was something missing in the room. A picture of the parents. She walked over to the main bed room and removed one of the many enlarged framed pictures of the happy parents - It was a beautiful picture of Payal and Akash which had been taken a month earlier, and decided to hang it on the wall above the crib. She thought it would be something that the little angel could wake up to every morning.
Om Prakash had left the room once all the furniture had been set in place and had moved everything else back to storage with the help of Hari Prakash while Arnav walked over to her. She had already asked OP to put a nail in the wall to hang the picture and she was trying to level it. Arnav was only a few inches away when she realized that he was standing right next to her.
"It's a little crooked. Here let me help you with that" he said straightening the picture out.
She looked over and notice how close her really was. His arm brushed her bare skin as he moved around the picture and she was able to look at him closely in the out fit he was wearing. He looked very handsome and it made her heart beat faster. She saw the arrogant nose and those dark eyes that made him looks astoundingly mature for his age. She had hardly seen him smile last year and she had been lucky enough to catch a few glimpses of a beautiful smile that lit up the room in the past day. When he smiled, he was a different man she thought.
She continued staring at him as he turned towards her and saw her beautiful face. He felt like she could see through him and he didn't know how to react. He was vulnerable and he was afreaid of what might happen next. He had sweat beads on his temple and suddenly he felt very hot. It was like the room had gotten very small and there was no air to breath. She suddenly turned away to look out the window.
"It looks beautiful doesn't it?" she said with her back to him
"It sure is" he said turning towards her and walking slowly over to her.
"Ok everything looks good, I am just sending Lavanya and Anjali Di a quick text now so that they can bring Jiji and Jiju to the room so that we can show them what we've done!! Jiji is going to be so happy" she said trying to keep her voice casual as she fiddle with her phone. She had realized that she was not in control of herself when he was so close to her. She wanted to get out of the room as soon as she could. She looked back to find him standing right behind her and she stumbled. He caught her just in the nick of time before she tripped over the rug on the floor.
She straightened herself out and looked up at him as he got closer. She took a few steps back and he walked towards her. She took a few more steps back only to realize that she had her back to the window. She looked around nervously as he got closer.
When he finally got close enough to her, he bent over towards her and held on to her. He had her by her waist and could feel the soft skin against his palms. It made his body tingle. He was losing control and he was trying very hard not too.
"Kushi, Kushi, Kushi" he whispered to her. She had her eyes shut. It was the exactly as it was on Diwali night. Only this time, he had said her name. She knew he was in his senses but she wasn't sure what was going to happen next.
"I missed you so much... Don't close your eyes. Look at me" he whispered to her
She opened her eyes and looked into his. She was afraid to move. She was afraid to breath. Time had frozen.
He moved closer to her. He was an inch away from her lips and she shut her eyes again.
She suddenly felt his lips on her. They were not soft as hers were. But they felt good. Time was at a stand still and he then suddenly moved away from her.
He took a few steps back and looked at her. She had opened her eyes and didn't know how to react.
"I'm sorry" he said
Kushi continued to stare at him unable to speak
"I didn't mean too. I just couldn't help myself. I'm so sorry" he said
"Kushi!!!" they both suddenly heard Payal's voice as she walked into the room with Akash, Anjali, Lavanya and Viraj.
Arnav spun around and suddenly composed himself. Kushi walked over to Payal as if nothing had happened and hugged her. She didn't want to think about what had just happened. All she wanted to do was run. Instead she put on an act. She went around showing the nursery to everyone as if nothing had happened.
Payal hugged Kushi again and she walked over to Arnav.
"Arnav Bhai thank you" she said suddenly giving Arnav a hug.
Arnav smiled at her as Akash moved over to hug him as well.
It seemed that everyone was happy with the nursery and gushing over the happy couple when Kushi's phone suddenly rang. She knew who the caller was and answered thanking god for the distraction.
"Abhay where are you?? I thought you were going to be here an hour ago.. Hold on I'll be down in a second" she said and Arnav's blood went cold.
"Everyone, come with me, I want you all to meet someone. Abhay Mehetha - He's been helping me with KK Group and he's also a good friend, so you have to come meet him" she said dragging Payal out of the room.
As Payal, Lavanya and Viraj followed Kushi back to the party, Anjali turned to Arnav and looked at him with stone cold eyes.
"Do you know who she's talking about Chote?" She asked him.
He knew that he was in trouble and he stormed out of the room without answering her while Akash looked at Arnav walking away and looked at Anjali wondering what was going on. Is this the same Abhay? Is thisAnjali Di's Abhay? Why did Arnav Bhai look so angry? He wondered as he walked out of the room with Anjali afraid to find out how the night was going to turn out..
Chapter 5
While Kushi socialized with the guests at the party, she checked her phone to see if Abhay was on his way. She was eager to introduce him to everyone. Abhay had somehow become Kushi's shoulder to lean on over the last year and had guided her through many sticky situations with KK Group. She wanted everyone to meet the man that had become like her brother and right now she was fuming at his tardiness.
"Kushi are you ready to get started on the Nursery?" she heard a husky voice behind her say. She immediately knew who it was and spun around with a big smile on her face.
"Ok we can sneak out now since everyone is busy. But I have someone I want you to meet before the night is over, so we gotta be quick ok?"
