ab thak (until now)
khushi hurt her foot. but arnav helped heal it. arnav took a shower. and before he could finish buttoning all of his button on his shirt. khushi screamed. she had a night mare bc of the snake and his threat. he held her tightly all night and they both went to sleep in each others arms.
as the morning light from the sun slowly shined oh arnavs face. he took deep breathes to welcome the day. as he opened his eyes he saw her face. seeing the reflection from the suns rays on her face, her closed eyes. her lips, her bangs across her face gave him peace. he lay flat on his back with is arm around her. and she lay on his chest. holding onto him thightly, even while sleeping. she seemed calm. especially after last night. who knows what had scared her this much that she wasnt able to sleep. but now,. he didnt care. because it seemed as if she slept very peacefully. after many days. she seemed to feel safe. he could smell the aroma of her hair. with his other hand that was free he slowly moved the strands of her hair that were on her face. he just wanted to see her.. her face... he could recall the many times that he had done this. from the first time in the guest house that broke down. how she fainted into his arms, and he moved the strand of hair then. to many others. he remembered new years eve. when for the first time, they shared a bed. different circumstances though, but he even tried to move it then. he just smiled. gave of a little chukkle. but he was content to know that he.. was the one she felt safe with. he gave her that support when she needed it. this sense of security that she felt when around him, made him feel needed for who he was. not what he earned or his name, or anything. just who HE was. as he placed the strands behind her ear, she started to wake up. he quickely closed his eyes. pretending to sleep again. he didnt want her to feel uncomfortable. or notice that he was looking at her. he didnt want her to know that he cared so deeply for her. he didnt want her to know that she was the only one who made a place in his heart. that she was... the one...
as she woke. she slowly moved her head and made her head snuggle more in. she opened her eyes. and say his face. with the rays of sun coming in from behind. she saw him. he seemed calm. content. he seemed like that loving person who staring at her and walking along with her on the morning of her sisters marriage. she remembered how they both just smiled at each other and walked across. she remembered how she accidently feed all of the pattal to the cow. she smiled.. and how he ... just like always... was there for her.. and saved her from every problem that ever arised. he was always there for her. and he was there for her last night as well. she felt safe.. secure.. as if nothing.. absolutely nothing could harm her as long as she was with him. she never felt that safe after her parents death. she was always scared of the dark. fast cars, everything. and she felt more scared after shyam started to try to come closer to her. but she looked again at his face, and forgot all of her pain. worries,, and tension. she felt as if she could trust him to always be there. she slowly moved her hand off and tried to lift her head up. but her earing got stuck again.
hay devi maiyyan... yeh kyon bar bar attak jati hai. (why does this always get stuck) she thought to herself. she tried to release it, but couldnt. she was trying not to wake him up. but the more she tried to move it, the more it got stuck. she tried to untagle it with her hand, when all of a sudden she could feel him holding her hand.
he tilted his head down and around to face her. and took out the earing.
he looked at her. and she looked at him. take soft breathes to welcome this new phase of their lives.
he looked at her and gave that smile that he gave the day after the dance. semi flirty. semi naughty... his eyes were speaking tons to her.
arnav: good morning...
khushi: chame to you. she smiled.
slowly they both got up and sat up on the bed.
arnav: khushi.. chai order kar doon? (should i order chai)
khushi: aur apki coffee? (and your coffee)
arnav: dono.. they both just kept on smiling.
khushi: main fresh ho kar ati hoon. (ill go and get freshened up)
as she was leaving arnavs botton on his sleeve got stuck in the dori. and it opened. but the dori managed to slide out from the botton as he twised his hand towards him. they didnt notice. she tied her hair up in a bun, and still didnt notice. arnav ordered in their bed tea.
someone started to knock on the door very hard. bang bang bang
arnav got angry.
arnav: what the.. is this anyway to knock on the door.
he went to open and saw akash at the door.
akash: bhai.. voh di.. jaldi again... (its di.. hury)
arnav: kya howa di ko? is she alright? let me just tell khushi... khushiii... khusiii... di ko kuch hogaya hai. (something happened to di)
khushi heard this and ran out of the bathroom.
khushi: kya howa arnav gi... kahan hain voh.. (what happened. where is she?)
they both just ran from their room. slamming the door on the way back. they quickly ran to anjalis room. and say that she was sitting on her bed. crying. holding shyams hand.
anjali: chotte... yeh daikho. pata nahin inko kaisay itni buri tarhan say choot lag gae hai. (look, i dont know how he got this badly hurt?)
his he was looking straight at the ground. and once he heard khushis voice he looked up. he hair was a mess. her sindoor was a bit smughed... and her dori was opened. he could onlly imagine the worse. then he looked at arnav. his top buttons were open with sindor smughed on his chest. hair was messed.
he started to breath deeply. twiching every nerve in his face. his nostril going wild. about to have a siezure. he couldnt hold his anger in any longer.
he looked at the ground. as if he was going to set it on fire.
anjali: kya howa ap ko.. ek dam say yeh kya ho raha hai. (what happened to you all of a sudden. what is happening to you?)
arnav looked at shyam. this was jealousy and hatred. he looked at him and khushi. she saw the states that both of them were in. and smirked. he knew exactly that shyam was thinking.
arnav: akash call a doctor. and take di outside. this much emotion is not good for her. khushi you stay with di. ill be here with jijaji. you all go. ill take care of him. (ill take care of him all right)
all of them left the room. arnav stopped akash at the door and told him to call the doctor from the hospital. the hotel doctor is not that good. they need the best for their jijaji. right. askah agreed. and left with anjali and khushi.
khushi: anjali ji. ap hamaray sath hamary kamray main chalian. arnav ji hain na yahan par. ap ko aram kar na chahey hai. (come with me to my room. arnav is with shyam. you need to rest.)
anjali was hessitant. but knew that chotte would take care of her husband. so she left with khushi.
arnav and shyam were all alone in shayms room. arnav closed the door. and turned around. (ASR MUSIC in the bg)
he just smiled and walked towards his fav jijaji.
arnav: ji ja ji... you shouldnt hurt yourself. i told you before and i am telling you again. halat kay sath samghota kar lain. (deal with what you have)
waisay mainay aur khushi ... and he turns around to look at his face after he takes their names together. shyam was getting angrier.
he stood up and started to walk around the room looking for a mirror.
arnav: mainay aur khushi nay bhi halat kay sath samghota kar liya hai. matlab yeh kay.. ab hum pati patni hain. tho ek dosray ko apnana tho para. (i have dealth with my situation. meaning.. me and khushi are now husband and wife. so we had to accept this)
he found a mirror.
and started to fix his hair. smirking while doing this.
he noticed the sindoor on his chest.
arnav: khushi bhi na. he started to find a tissue. it was right beside shyams bed. he walked over and got it. walked back to the mirror and started to wipe it.
arnav: yeh khushi bhi na. (man khushi...) sigh... he looked at shyam who was staring at him and what he was doing. apni huliya bhi tho theek kar loon. varna dosray samagh gain gay. yeh cheezain pati aur patni ki beech main hi rahain tho behtar hota hai. right .. ji ja ji..(let me fix my self up. otherwise others will know what happened. and these things are better left between a hsband and wife.. right)
he started to button his shirt.
shyam got up and furiously walked towards arnav.
shyam: aranv tumhari himmat kaisay howi khushi ko chu nay ki. zaroor tum nay zabardasti ki hogi. agli baat meri khushi...(how dare you touch her.. you probably forced youself onto her. next time you try to touch my khushi)
arnav held his jijaji throat. his eyes were about to kill. he tilted his head a bit to the side. while holding his teeth shut. angrily moved his lips to make sure shyam understood what he was saying.
arnav: pehlay bhi keh chuka hoon.. aur ab akhri baar keh raha hoon. khushi MERI patni hai. apki kabhi nahin ho sak thi hai. samghay ap. (ive told yo this before and ths is the last time i am telling you. she is MY wife. she can never be yours. understand)
some one knocked on the door. akash let the doctor in. arnav let go of shyams throat. and told akash to handle this. he stormed out of the room.
went straigt to his and say khushi taking care of anjali. khushi was leaning over the sofa that anjali was sitting on. she was consoling her. and was trying to get her to drink something.
khushi: anjali ji.. ap kuch pee ligiyeh. apki tabiyat kharab hogae ji. (drink something. youll fall sick)
arnav started to calm down seeing how she cared soo much for his sister. he could see love and compassion in every gesture that she did. she noticed that he hair was tied up and hr dori was open. if he opened her hair like last time to cover her back, then di would notice. and he didnt want that. he walked up and put his hand on her bare back. khsuhis eyes flung right open. he slowly slid his hand up to where the dori should be tied up. and started to tap and slid his middle finger side to side. khushi couldnt breath. she took big big gulps. she turned her face to see him. and saw that he was sending her messages through his eyes. he was hinting towards her back. she got up and moved behind the sofa.
arnav kneeled down and took the glass from khushi.
arnav: di. khushi sahee keh rahi hai.. ap kuck pee ligiyeh. apki tabiyat kharab hogae gi. jijaji is fine. akash hain unkay paas aur doctor bhi agaya hai.(khushi is right. drink something. beofre you get sick. your husband is fine. askahs is with them and the doc is also there)
he helped anjli drink. khushi went to the room and tied her dori. she quickely fixed her self, hair and sindor. and came out side
anjali: chotte. agar inko kuch hogata... pata nahin inko aj kal kya howa hai. hummay kuch bhi samagh main nahin araha hai. (if something had happened to him. i dont know what has gotten into him these days. i dont understand anything) she started to cry. hugging the cushion that was beside her.
arnav: di... main apkay sath hoon. (im with you)
khushi: nahin arnav ji...
he was shocked and so was anjali. they both looked at her.
she walked over and kneeled down as well and held anjalis hand.
khushi: hum dono apkay sath hain. ( we are both with you)
she gave a smile of reassurance to anjali.
arnavs eyes became moist. his heart was melting. he knew that she was his support.
precap: one of them .. hehe.. decides to confide in the other. :D
