The next morning arnav woke up and was pleased to hear Khushi s voice from downstairs, he quickly got up and showered coming out of the bathroom twenty minutes later wear a pair of jeans and a white shirt. He rubbed his hair with his towel and styled it. He walked down the stairs completely awed, their she stood wearing a nice white cotton dress, her soft straight brown hair coming down past her shoulder , khushi who was busy talking with painter arguing about the paint, felt a pair of eye on her she looked up and saw Arnav staring at her dreamingly, until he shook his head and walked down past her , without saying any hi or hello's or worst , flirting. She was glad, the better it was the two avoided each other, or was it? she finished her work early as he left for the office. when she reached home she came to know aman,dhruv and arnav going for dinner to fix the deal
she came back a few minutes ago with a bowl of ice-cream, Kr- thanks aunty you know, arnav uncle was right you are very nice now wonder uncle loves you so much , she couldn't control her cheeks from turning red , and asked hi curiously, K- did uncle say that?, kr- no but you know when you were dancing with papa, he was jealous, but then I told him not to worry because khushi aunty loves you as much as he loves you right aunty you love uncle, khushi looked at him who stared at her innocently, how was she to tell him, she didn't know herself did she still love him?, of course she did how could she forget her first love, before khushi could say something krish let out a scream holding his stomach and began to cry, she got startled and asked what was wrong...when the door bell rang,she sighed finally they were here she opened the door, K- finally aman he's beennn, when she looked up and saw a fully drenched Arnav standing in front of him, A- it's Arnav khushi , now are you going to let me in or freeze out here , she moved out of the way letting him and closed the door behind him.arnav walked a few steps when he heard khushi s voice and stopped, K- what are you doing here , I thought you were going for a meeting dinner with aman anddhruv A- first of all I did go but I only stayed for five minutes because I needed to talk to you, K- well I don't want to and you could have waited for tomorrow I was coming over anyway , you didn't have to leave the dinner for me after all, A- just sshh khushi I need to, but he was interrupted by krish loud sobs coming from the living room, she ran into the living room while arnav followed khushi and was surprised to see krish. A- What happened here he said going in front of khushi who stopped and stood watching arnav proceed. A- aww now what's wrong with little krish, Krish continued to cry holding his stomach, A-hmmm come on krish don't cry you know only babies cry , does that mean you're a baby, krish sobs slowly died out as he whiped his eyes, sniffling k- no I'm not a baby I'm a big boy he said with a hint of arrogance , A- now thats more like it he said kissing his forehead, A- now do you want to tell uncle what's the matter, k- arnav uncle my stomach hurts, I don't know all of a sudden when I was eating ice-cream , A- hmmm oh really and may I ask by chance did you have any other sweet, chips and soda in the day time perhaps too much, krish looked down at his hands wondering how arnav had found out and then looked up to take a quick glance at khushi who frowned at him for not telling her. Krish held his two ears , K- I'm sorry aunty and uncle I won't eat anymore I promise, A- promise?, krish nodded his head, A- good boy now go to sleep he said rubbing his stomach, K- can you tell me a story uncle please, A- sure why not and he continued to tell krish a story while khushi slowly went back to the door and leaned..she came back to reality when she heard arnav sneeze, k- oh uh arnav I can give you a dry shirt of dhruv 's so you don't get sick, A- uh no it's fine, K- no I'm sure he won't mind I'll go and get one she said, and decided to take krish to one of the rooms upstairs, he sawher going to pick krish, and moved forward when he went for it as well and accidentally put his hand on top of hers which laid on krish's chest. she instantly jerked her hand back, K- uhh, A- um here I'll take him upstairs, she just nodded and lead the way. he placed krish on the bed and took his wet and cold shirt of, while khushi was in dhruv's room getting a shirt for Arnav. K- here you go she said walking into the room until she lifted her gaze from the floor and onto Arnav, her heart did a little flip, beating faster and faster just looking at him, he walked slowly towards her holding his hand out for the shirt, but she just stood there still, A- khushi he said caressing her hand , A- are you okay, K- huh she said , her hands trembling from his touch, she slowly took her hand back , A- khushi shirt?, K- oh uh here but her hands trembled and dropped the shirt ,arnav bend down while khushi went down , but arnav had already got the shirt and came up when her lips brushed against his shoulder softly , sending him a chill while her lips shivered. she turned around to leave whenhe grabbed her hand brought her closer, A- please i need to talk to you, K- no not now Arnav , let me go um I think you should go, A- khushi I'll go but , K- just leave she said nervously at their closeness,he sighed and was about to open his mouth when all of a sudden their was a loud thunder blowing the lights out. he still held khsuhi's hand when krish started whining half asleep,she walked over to him till he went back to sleep a few minutes later, she turned around hoping he was gone but she could still feel his presence , he put his shirt on and took his lighter from his pocket , A- khushi where are the candles, , K- uh they are downstairs, I'll show you , he went down the stairs while she followed behind closely.
