Translation of Part 11
Arnav:What happened di?Tell me,y didnt u say anything to Khushi?All ur advice,all ur lessons-y r they only for myself?She has also commited a mistake.Its a fact di..She misunderstood me.
Anjali:No Chhotey.Chhoti did not..
Arnav(interrupts):Enough,di!Stop taking her side! U cant ignore her mistake!If I am wrong,then she is equally wrong!
He cuts the call.
Anjali:Chhotey! Uff!How do I explain it to u?
She tries his phone again and again,but he doesnt pick up any of her calls.
Anjali:right now Chhotey is burning with anger.There's no point telling him anything now.If even he hears it,he wont understand it! Let me leave the matter here. I'll talk to him once his meeting is over.(sighs)I'll tell him that I wanted to tell Chhoti,but...
*Flashback*(the morning after the night when Anjali saw... )
HP:Anjali didi,here,take ur juice.Do u need anything else?
Anjali:No HPji.Plz inform Chhoti that I've called her here.
HP:Ok.
_____________________________________________________________
Khushi(enters with a plate of jalebis in her hands):Di,u called me?
Anjali:Yes,I did,Chhoti.Has Chhotey left for work?
Khushi(her face falls):Ya di.. He left.. without having breakfast.
Anjali:Plz come here and sit with me. (puts a hand on her shoulder)What happened?Did Chhotey say something?
Khushi:Di.. he.. just,actually we had an argument over what happened yesterday. He's angry on me coz I asked u to forgive me in the morning.
Anjali is about to say something when Khushi interrupts her.
Khushi:Its all my fault! I should have waited till he was up.. Without telling him I came to naniji's room and.. he.. (her voice trails off) Leave it.. (munches on a jalebi)Now,he's not even talking to me.. I tried to call him,but he isnt taking my calls.. How do I convince him now?(munches on another jalebi)Now m just waitin for his anger to cool down,I bet he'll be ok by evening! I'll talk to him once he's back home in the evening.
Anjali(thinks):Chhoti is gettin so worried for sucha small issue.She's blaming herself and freaking out when its not even her fault!Chhotey has a habbit to see her face first thing in the morning.Today that didnt happen,so he got angry,which is usual! But Chhoti..
She looks at Khushi,who is mumbling something to herself which gobbling up jalebis.
Anjali(thinks):She's taken the whole blame on her head!Now if I tell her she's misunderstood Chhotey,what'll happen to her.No! I cant tell her anything right now!
Khushi:Di,y has u called me?
Anjali:A.. I was thinking its been days since I've not had street food. Tikki chaat,gol gappe, dahi bhalle...
She looks at Khushi,who has already started drooling and hides her smile.
Anjali:I've not had these since a long time!So if u r free,u come with me n mami.V r going to Desi Tadka at 11 today.
Khushi:Ha,ha!I(stops sudenly)a.. no,no,I... I cant come!
Anjali:Y?Plz come Chhoti!We'll have loads of fun!We'll drink Shikanji as well!
Khushi:Shi..kan..ji!
Anjali:Ya!Plz come with us.Dont say no,else i'll feel very bad..
Khushi:Ok di!I'll be ready by 11.Now,can I leave?
Anjali(beams):Yup!
*Flashback*
Anjali:Had I told her,she would've told u,then how would u learn ur lesson,Chhotey?
She feels a hand on her shoulder.
Nani:Anjali bitiya..
Anjali:A.. nani.. u... u?
Nani(looking at the phone in her hand):Hmm! So u couldnt control urself,ryt?Without talking to Chhotey,hmmm?
Anjali:A.. ya nani.Actually... I didnt get a chance to.. talk to him the entire day so...
Nani:Hmm..I know everything!Now tell me wer r Aakash bitwa n Paayal bitiya?I'm very thirsty.I'll tell Aakash bitwa to fetch the car and take us home asap.
Anjali:But nani,they both have gone to the mall,to buy gifts for everyone.
Nani:What?
Anjali:Yes.A.. U plz wait here,I will just b back!
Nani:But bitiya where r u goin at this time,and that too alone?
Anjali:Nani,Aakash had given me some money,in case we want to eat or drink anything.U plz sit here,I'll buy a bottle of water for u and be back very soon!
Nani:Alright.Be careful and... give ur pooja ki thaali to me.

Anjali helps nani sit down and leaves.

Arnav:What the hell do u mean Aman?
Aman:Sir,as soon as he told me,I came here to tell u.Bcoz of personal reasons,Mr. Bhardwaj will not be able to attend tonight's meeting.
Arnav:Damn his personal reasons! I gave up all my personal work so as to accomodate this meeting in my schedule and he cancels the meeting at the last minute,due to "personal reasons!"How could he do this?(grits his teeth)Tell him that till he doesnt call me up and till his company doesnt send me a written apology,that too within the next 24 hours,m not signing any deal with him,understood?
Aman:Yes sir.
Arnav:M going home,u people wind up the rest of the work.
Aman:Ok sir.But.. sir.. ur food?
Arnav:what food
Aman:Sir Khushi ma'm told me to get less spicy food for u,I've got just as per her wishes.So,will u have it right now?
Arnav:I'll hav dinner at home,do u hav a problem?
Aman:N.. no sir.
Arnav:Leave,now!
Arnav:Dammit!Whatta cruel joke! The meeting for which I had to cancel my plans with Khushi, due to which Khushi went to her mom's place,for which I was waiting here since the last 2 hours,that meeting got cancelled!
He picks up his laptop bag and mobile and heads out the door of his cabin.
_________________At the sweet shop outside the temple campus____________
Anjali spots jalebis and a thought crosses her mind.
Anjali(thinks):Chhotey will go to see Chhoti after his meeting.What if he takes out anger meant for me on her?Oh god!He will spoil everything this way!No!I should talk to Chhoti and warn her before hand that Chhotey's mood is off.
She pays the shop owner,picks up the bottle of water and pack of samosas and heads to a corner,where she can talk to Khushi peacefully.

Garima:Hello?Whos this?Plz talk a little loudly,I cant hear u..
Anjali:Ammaji its me,(loudly)Anjali..
Garima:Oh.. Anjali bitya?Bless u!! Actually there's some problem in the phone wire so I cant hear u clearly.
Anjali(loudly):No problem! Is .. Chhoti there?
Garima:No bitiya.She left a while back for.. hello? Hello?Anjali bitiya?
Anjali(loudly):Hello?Ammaji?Hello... (sighs)Looks like the line got cut due to the wire problem.Now how do I talk to Chhoti?Her mobile is also coming switched off!
_____________________________________________________________
HP:Areh Arnav bhaiyya,u came home pretty soon?
Arnav:Hmm. Bring me a cup of coffee in my room in 10 minutes.
HP:Sure.A...actually Khusi bhabhi told me that u wont have dinner at home..so I didnt cook anything.
Arnav(glares):Did I ask u?
HP shakes his head.
Arnav:Go,do ur work!
_____________________________________________________________
Arnav(enters his room and throws his laptop case on the bed):Disgusting!Khushi can call Aman & HP 4 times a day but not her husband!And if her husband wants to call her,he cant do so,as madam's phone is constantly switched off! Seems like she doesnt want to speak to me at all!
Khushi(coming out of the bathroom in her night clothes):Ya,I dont want to speak to u!!
Arnav(shocked beyond measure):Khu...shi!?U?
Khushi(makes a face):Ya,me.
She proceeds to fold her dress.
Arnav forgets all about his anger and rushes to her.
He hugs her from behind,putting his arms around her waist and then kisses her shoulder.
Arnav:Khushi!!I missed u so much honey!
Khushi:Plz leave me!
She turns around and starts unbuttoning his waistcoat.
Khushi(without looking at him):Just bcoz I came here,doesnt mean that I have forgiven u!
She helps him take off the waistcoat and throws it on the recliner.
Khushi(proceeds to remove his tie):I came here just bcoz buaji forced me to come,else I had no plans of returning here tonight.
Arnav(holds her hand):Really?Well,now that u r here,I guess it would b better if u understand my plans as well!
He holds her by her waist and pulls her flush against himself.
Khushi:U...
He silences her with a long and hungry kiss.
Once they break apart for air,Khushi pushes him and throws the tie on the recliner as well.
Arnav:Khushi!?
Khushi(removing her MIL's bangles):I thought that after staying away from me for the whole day,there must b a change in ur attitude,but no! I thought u must have realized ur mistake,but no! U r still the same!
She thrusts the bangles on the dresser.
Khushi:there's no change in ur demeanor!U r still misusing ur love to shut me up!
Arnav (turns her to face him):Nope Khushi,thats not true!
Khushi(removes his hands from her shoulders):That is true!It was just proved true by u right now! I dont understand y I had to agree to buaji n come here in the 1st place?
She goes to the poolside.
Arnav:Khushi,wait...wa.. it!?
His eyes fall upon the mirror and he is shocked to see himself still wearing the waistcoat and tie.
Arnav(bewildered):Khushi? Khushi!
He goes to the poolside and looks everywhere but doesnt spot her.
Arnav(coming inside the room):Great! Now m dreaming with open eyes!Looks like I'm totally insane now!
He lies down on the recliner and closes his eyes.

Buaji:Its connected(hands her the reciever)Take this! If there is some problem,then call me.
Garima:Ok jiji!
_____________________________________________________________
Anjali(looks at her phone):A call from Chhoti's house?Hello...
Garima:Ya,Anjali bitiya?Plz forgive me,the phone went dead while we were talking.
Anjali:No problem.A.. where's Chhoti?
Garima(smiles):She was making rice pudding for Damadji but that thing is not there in my house,... that thing,which Arnav bitwa uses in place of sugar...
Anjali:Sweetner?
Garima:Ya! That is it!
Anjali(thinks):Oh! That means Chhotey's had a chat with Chhoti?!No wonder then that special rice pudding is being prepared for Arnavji!
Garima: So Khusi has gone with her babuji to fetch that from the shop.As soon as they r back,I'll tell her to call u,bitiya.
Anjali:A.. no,leave it,I'll call her later.And.. plz dont tell her that I had called her,I will speak to her later on.
Garima(thinks Anjali wants to talk about her future husband):As u say, bitiya.
Anjali:Ok,thank u,namaste!
Garima:Namaste,be happy!
_____________________________________________________________
Anjali:Now Chhotey's mood must have been restored!Let me call him now.If he's in the meeting,I'll leave a msg on the answering machine!But I wont tell him about the rice pudding,may b Chhoti wants to surprise him!
She calls Arnav.
_____________________________________________________________
Arnav(on the verge of crying):Di!!
Anjali(shocked):Chhotey!?What happened to u?
Arnav:Di,help me! M.. going mad!I can now see Khushi right here,that too when she's not here in reality!
Anjali:Chhotey,relax!U r missing her a lot,so thats y u can c her!(thinks)That means Chhoti and Chhotey have not talked to each other.Now I guess I need to tell him about the rice pudding.
Arnav:But di,this has never happened before!
Anjali:U first listen to me!I had called her up...
She tells him the whole thing.
Anjali:This means that Chhoti is also missin u and expecting u over there.So wot if she didnt talk to u?!Now u finish ur meeting fast and then.. hello?Chhotey?
Arnav:Di? Hello?
Anjali(sighs):Battery! Oh no! Nani! I completely forgot about her!
She rushes back to the temple.
