❤️ PART THREE: Tug of Love

Arnav couldn't drive straight! His eyes were on the road ahead, and still he did not see the cars ahead. He almost hit the back of a bus, and saw the sardar in the white amby behind him mouth curse words as he swerved past.

This is not going well, thought Arnav, I had better stop for a while.He pulled the car to the side, and exhaled.His eyes were shut and all he could see was Khushi, looking divine in her saree.What nonsense she spoke...she wore it perfectly well, and it complimented her svelte shapely self so well.Which is what had been worrying him!

He knew leaving Shyam anywhere near Khushi was like allowing cotton to touch a candle...and not expect any scorching.Bah...the two of them acting so innocent...my bechari di...she would never know what they were doing behind her back!

I'm not allowing this rendezvous to carry on...

He reversed out of the lane, and headed straight to the temple.

Meanwhile, Khushi found being in Shyam's presence suffocating.She had caught him adjusting the rear view mirror in the car,so he could see her, and promptly invited Anjaliji to sit at the back with her on some pretext.Shyam frowned and corrected the mirror again,much to Khushi's relief!

But, thereafter he used every opportunity to touch her fingers as he took the thaals from her hands, to accidently bump against her crowd and to test her patience , in front of Anjali.Khushi was very close to blowing his cover,but it was Anjali's delicate condition that held her back from creating a scene.Thank God, it was almost done and all she wanted was to get back home and stay away from everyone.

Arnav had reached the temple, and paced before his parked car.Should he go up the stairs and find them?He decided not to, it would be easier to meet them as they left!

Anjali carefully watched her step as she manoevered through the heavy crowd.Shyam made a big show of helping her doen the steps,a s Khushi tried hard to forget his lizard-like touch!

"CHOTE!CHOTE!"

Arnav looked up and walked towards them.

"What is this?!If you actually had the time why didn't you accompany us when we were coming?I can never understand you Arnav!"

"No di! In fact, I don't have time...there is too much to be done! Please tell Nani that Khushi is coming to the office with me...I need an extra pair of hands,and she knows the job"

"But..but..but...",stuttered Khushi.

"You heard me Khushi, get in the car",he said threateningly.

Shyam almost gagged at how his plans of spending more time with Khushi were being bulldozed by his saalesaab...Darn it...why does he always get the upper hand!And he watched as Arnav grasped Khushi's hand and pulled her away to the car,as Khushi protested gently.

❤️ Part Four: Tug of love continues...

"Let go of my hand...ouch...Arnavji...you are hurting me!"

As they reached the car, Arnav abruptly let go of his hold on Khushi's wrist. He opened the door, and she quietly stepped in. As he took his seat, she looked at his face with a comic frightened expression, wondering what was on his mind. She could not hold herself any more,

" Tell me why you want me at the office when you have Amanji and a battalion of staff there to help you?"

Arnav clenched his jaw, and exhaled. He refused to be drawn into giving her any explanation for his behaviour.

"Isn't it you who said , we have no relationship at all, then what is this - I don't work for you anymore!!"

She saw his face turn red with fury, but, knew better than to push anymore buttons, and decided to keep her silence till the rest of the trip to the office.

As they turned the corner into ASR office headquarters, she felt nervous to face her past colleagues. This was the first time that she was visiting after marriage. She had been one of the staff till a while ago, and now she was the boss's wife. This was awkward...and she could feel the curious eyes on her as she walked past the cubicles. She tried to keep closely behind Arnav's tall frame, hiding behind him.

They entered his cabin, and he got down to attending to his stream of phone calls, and ignored her completely. Khushi stood confused, and irritated at being made to wait around doing nothing.

"Arnavji, please tell me what I have to do...I can't just stand her like a statue!",she said.

"Oh so you are eager to do work are you Khushi? Since when did you become so dedicated. Fine. Get a ladder and find me these files."

"What!!! Climb a ladder in a saree?! You must be mad!"

"Hah...I knew you were ever unprofessional!"

This stung Khushi strong enough for her to go searching for a ladder in a huff, mumbling to herself..."I knew he was bringing me here to torture me! Well, atleast he didn't make me get off the car, halfway to the office and walk all the way, in the sweltering sun! He does seem a bit merciful today!"

As she laid the ladder carefully against the wall, Arnav watched from the corner of his eye, making sure she did not slip. She reached the top step, and tucked her pallu into her slim hip, making him hold his breathe, and break into a sweat. darn it...this woman won't let me concentrate.

Khushi started searching seriously, occasionally becoming aware of Arnav's penetrating gaze upon her. She could swear he was looking her over, but when she turned to check, he had set his jaw tightly in a clench and looked away.

"What a strange man! Huh...who cares, I just have to get this work done and then leave!", she thought.

"Arnavji, I need you to take these files. I can't get down with them!"

Arnav got up, and strode towards her, trying hard not to let her magnetic pull show...!

He took the files, and their eyes met...and he almost dropped the pile from his hands. She had the most sensual eyes he had ever seen. He looked away, and she got down, swallowing hard at the funny feeling that rose to her throat. he was too close for comfort!

Khushi's mobile rang...and Arnav peaked suspiciously at the screen to see whose name was displayed, half expecting it to be Shyam! But it was Payal.

"Ohh no...is Bauji sick...I will go visit him jiji...I don't care if they don't welcome me...I have to go! "

Her father had high fever and Payal had called to inform Khushi, and now she had to take permission from Arnav...would he let her go or no? She would have to take a chance!
