FF : I Feel Nothing. Updated Part 40 - Page 48

Khushi fell into her husbands strong waiting arms...

Arnav, holding her close to his heart, just stared at her in shock..."did...did she just say?..." he lifted her and walked slowly back into the house, his eyes locked on her tearstained face, her words echoing in his mind, he entered the house in a hypnotized state..."Khushiji!" Anjali shrieked as Arnav carried her in..."chote, what happened!? Is she okay!?" Anjali lifted Khushi's hand, rubbing her palms to force a response from her..."Chote!!! What happened?!" she yelled at her brother who was just staring at his wife's face...Payal and Nani came over...Payal felt Khushi's forehead, Nani picked up the phone ready to call the doctors, when a voice spoke above all the commotion..."When Khushi faints the best thing for her is a cold compress and then jalebi...she regains her strength..." everyone turned to see who spoke...Garima. Payal shot a look at her Amma..."what! NOW you suddenly care! Now that Khushi has collapsed?!"

Arnav still unaware of everyone's chatter, just pushed through everyone and marched upstairs cradling his wife's small frame...kicking his bedroom doors, demanding entry... he laid her gently down on their bed, caressing her face, moving her hair away from her sleeping eyes...he ran to the bathroom, drenched a wash cloth with cold water and returned to her placing the coolness on her forehead...sitting carefully beside her...he spoke quietly, "khushi..."...he was trembling...his emotions being stretched to the limit...he had to get her away from all this...he couldn't let her crumble from all this emotional torment..."Khushi...i love you sweetheart...when you open your eyes i'm going to tell you again...over and over and over..." he tried extremely hard to regulate his breathing..."i'm trying to be strong for you...and i will continue to be strong for you...but seeing you like this...i've never known more pain... torture would be less painful...i am so sorry for everything...i just love you so damn much my heart aches..." he stopped when he felt Khushi weakly grip his hand..."Khushi?"...

Khushi awoke hearing these words..."I love you so damn much my heart aches..."...she remembered running...Arnavji stopping her...her Hitting him...her trying to break free...his relentless hold on her... that helpless feeling of falling...Khushi sat up with a start and launched herself into his rock hard chest...he immediately wrapped her in his arms as she cried..."why couldn't you have just let me run away...? Why couldn't you just let me disappear!? Everything would have been settled...all the pressure gone...why couldn't you just let me end all this!?" Through it all, Arnav stayed strong and steady. Holding her. Soothing her. Being there for her in a way no other man ever had. Once the storm of emotions subsided, she looked up at him. The tenderness in his eyes as he gently wiped away her tears almost sent her into another sobbing fit..."we're going to go away for a few days..." Arnav stated firmly. Khushi just stared at him with tears blurring her eyes... "alright. Business is important. There's no need to tell me all the things you do for your work..." Arnav sighed and gripped her waist firmly pulling her closer to himself...she arched her neck at the sudden movement..."Khushi...i said WE are going away for a few days...This environment is too toxic for you...you and i need some time together...just us...no one else around...giving time for me to prove to you that this..." he held her tighter to show her what he meant..." this...what we have together...won't end. Ever. Becausemy heart, mind and body is fully and explicitly in love with you..." and Arnav placed his hot open lips on hers...She was only his... and She in turn owned him completely.

Anjali came to see how Khushi was only to see her and Arnav caught up in a tender moment...she quietly closed their door and walked to her husbands room...looking around cautiously to make sure no one would catch her this time and get unnecessarily worried...she walked in to find him pacing around..."hey. Are you ok? You're causing localized ware and tare on that part of the floor!" she smiled...and went to hug him...his face was contorting into a sick rage not knowing where Khushi was or what Arnav was doing with her...Anjali pulled back and lifted his hand in her palm..." I still don't know how you could have broken your fingers just by tripping..." Shyam, who was now getting sick of his own games just said, "what can i say, i'm not well. And when one isn't well their body just stops working..."...Anjali shook her head..."not just their body, but obviously their mind too! Why would you hurt Khushiji? Just to make her keep quiet for me coming to see you!? She's hurting enough as it is...but...at least her and Chote are closer now than ever...their relationship is so connected that i'm sure this won't be the ONLY baby coming into the world so soon!" She started to laugh joyously giving a smile to her husband then massaging her growing tummy, quickly walked out . Shyam's inner demon broke free. That was is. He would get Khushi. Or Die Trying...
