Yes, everyone is trying to escape. Maan is escaping from marriage, Geet is escaping from the people who have kept her as a prisoner, and Arnav is escaping from marriage and love. Only Khushi is not trying to escape. But don't worry pretty soon even she will try to escape but from whom that you will come to know only by reading further updates.

CHAPTER 3. MAAN PROMISES NAINTARA &

PAYAL MEETS HER RAJKUMAR

Place - Khushi's House

"Jijiii", a certain hurricane named Khushi came running into her house at morning 8 o'clock hollering for her Jiji, while a certain Miss. Payal Kumari Gupta, the Jiji in question, looked up from her stitching, rolled her eyes and went back to her work. Payal and Khushi's parents, Shashi and Garima looked amused and annoyed respectively. Luckily for Khushi, Buaji was out of the house or else she would started on her "Haiyre Nanakisore" and "Sanki Devi" Dialogues. Shashi folded his newspaper as he knew his younger daughter would be lot more entertaining than reading it while Garima continued with sorting the rice which was to be cooked soon. Khushi ran into the house and landed beside her sister and started talking non-stop addressing both her sister and father, "Humaare paas ek taaji khabar hai jiji, who purani kothi haina, jahaan saalon se koi nahi rehta, Mishraaiyin keh rahi thi, ki wahaan abhi kuch log rehne aayen hain Dilli se aur unke ghar mein shaadi ke liye rishta dekha jaa raha hai." While Shashi and Garima looked mildly interested, Payal looked at Khushi disinterestedly. "Toh?", she questioned Khushi. Khushi replied, "Arrey Jiji! Bade log hain, toh unke yahaan rishta dekhne ke liye shagun toh le jaate honge na, toh unhein mithaaayion ki jaroorat toh hogi na. Aur agar rishta pakka hogaya aur sagaai bhi yaheen hui toh kitne saare mehmaan aayenge. Aur jitne mehmaan utni mithaaiyan bhi chahiye hogi."

"Tum ka keh rahi ho bitiya?", Garima asked and Shashi nodded his head. "Arrey Amma! Agar hum wahaan jaakar apni mithaai unko chakha dein, aur unhe pasand aai toh socho kitna bada Aardar (Order) humein milega. Aur unke mehmaan bhi Dilli ke honge. Mehmaanon ko pasand aaya toh humein Dilli se bhi Aardar milenge. Phir toh humein bahut paise milenge aur aap dono ko jiji aur meri shaadi ke kharche ki fikar bhi nahin karni padegi." Khushi replied excitedly. She had already started dreaming her sister's marriage to some handsome rajkumar while Garima and Shashi conferred on Khushi's idea. Khushi dreamed of her sister dressed in laal joda and wearing lots of jewellery when Garima's words broke into her thoughts, "Par Mithaai chakhaane ke liye mithaai leke jayega kaun? Hum toh ghar sambhaalenge. Aap teeno toh dukaan sambhaalenge. Phir kaun jayega?" Asked Garima to which Khushi replied enthusiastically, "Hum shaam ko chale jaayenge. Shaam ko jab dukaan par bheed kam hogi us waqt hum wahaan jayenge." Garima shook her head, "Na, na. Hum tumka wahaan akeli naahi jaane denge." Khushi looked around dejectedly and then smiled and replied Garima, "Toh theek haina, Amma! Hum Jiji ko saath lejayenge. Ab toh theek haina, Amma!" Garima hesitated when Shashi held her hand in assurance and nodded in affirmative at Khushi. Khushi suddenly excited about getting a big order bounced towards the door while shouting," Babuji, Jiji! Jaldi se tayyaar hoke dukaan pahunch jaayiye. Hum abhi jaake shaam ke liye mithaai tayyaar karte hain. Aur haan, Jiji, humaare aur aapke liye acchhe waale kapde tayyaar rakhna. Achhe kapde pehnenge toh achha impresan (impression) padega."

Shashi looked on with pride at his daughter. While he was against Dowry, he knew that as ladkiwallah he had to empty his pockets for decoration and clothes and jewellery and for other arrangements. Above on that, he had two daughters. If he got even one big Order, it will be helpful for the girls' weddings.

Place - Maan's Study room at Khurana Mansion

Maan looked out of the window. It was nearing 7 o'clock in evening and moon was out of the clouds. Maan couldn't believe that he had to go to the party and meet a girl. He was still thinking of a plan to back out of it. The girl in question was his client Mr. Malhotra's niece, Miss. Parineeta Malhotra. Maan was saddened that Naintara had chose such a girl for him. Parineeta, preferred to be called Pari, was intelligent and a modern girl. She was a model and had gone against her own parents to try modeling. Maan had nothing against modern and working girls, instead he believed that girls should stand on their own feet and not be dependant on their family, but the girl who goes against her own parents, Maan did not believe that she will respect her inlaws' wishes.

Naintara entered her room and shook her head looking at her Vadde Veerji. While she and Dev were already ready, Maan was yet in his office clothes. She spoke, "Yeh kya hai, aap abhi tak tayyaar nahin hue? Pari se milna nahin hai kya?" Maan turned around and faced NT. "Maine kahaan tha na tumse Mujhe koi ladki nahin dekhni. Toh phir tum kyon mere peeche padi ho Naintara? Mujhe kyon chain se nahin rehne deti?" Maan shouted at her. Naintara took a step backward in fear. Her Veerji looked scary when he shouted. She pitied the girl who would marry him. But she gathered her courage and spoke, "Par Veerji, suniye toh…." Maan could not take it anymore. "Chup, Bilkul chup.", he roared. Naintara's eyes filled with tears.

Dev, who was listening to the conversation from the door, could not resist himself anymore and made himself visible to both Maan and NT and spoke up, "Bas, bro, bas. NT toh bas aapki bhale ki sochti hai. Aur aap uspe chilla rahe ho! Bro, why are you letting Sameera affect yourself so much? Sameera aapka ateet thi. Use bhool jayiye aur aage badhiye bro." Maan looked confused, "Sameera! Ab yeh Sameera kahaan se beech mein aagayi? Paanch saal pehle jab woh shaadi ka mandap chod ke chali gayi, woh bhi mere, mere parivar ki ya uske parivar ki izzat ki parwaah na karte hue, tabhi hi main use bhool chukka hoon.", Maan replied harshly. Now it was Dev's turn to look confused. "Par bro, agar woh wajaah nahin hai toh kya wajah hai aapke shaadi na karne ki?" questioned Dev.

Maan sighed and signaled them to sit down. NT and Dev sat on the sofa while Maan took the chair. Maan waited for few seconds to collect his thoughts and spoke, "Sameera aur meri shaadi sirf ek compromise thi. We were good friends from childhood aur humaari family bhi friends the. Woh hamesha se modeling karna chaahti thi par use dhang ke breaks nahin mil rahe the. Tab Dadima ne humari shaadi ki baat kahi. Hum dono achhe dost the aur ek duje ko samajthe the isliye humnein bhi haan kardi. Shaadi ke sangeet ke waqt Dadima ne tum dono ki sagaai karwa di aur shaadi tumhare College khatam hone par hojayegi yeh elaan kar diya. Aur phir shaadi ka din aaya. Who din ek manhoos din tha. Sameera ko modeling karne ka achha Offer aaya. Uski wajah se woh shaadi ka mandap chodke bhaag gayi aur humaare liye ek chitti chod gayi. Maine toh use us waqt apni zindagi se nikal phenka. Yeh sab toh tum dono ne bhi apne aankhon se dekha tha lekin shaadi ke tootne ke gham mein Dadima ka kya hua yeh sirf Mujhe yaad hai. Shaadi ke evening toh tum dono aur Anvesha aur Arjun apne hostel chale gaye. Aur dadi dheere dheere depression mein chali gayi. Sameera se shaadi ki baat dadi ne chedi thi. Isliye Dadima apne aap ko is shaadi ke tootne ka gunehgaar maanti thi. Ek din unhein Heart Attack aagaya. Tum sab ke exams chal rahe the isliye maine tumse kuch nahi kahaa. Doctor ne keh diya ki phir aisa unhein jhatka mila toh woh bardaasht nahin kar payengi. Is liye main shaadi se darta hoon. Sameera ke wajah se nahin. Agar meri patni ne apne career ko apne family ke aage rakha toh shayad Dadima nahi seh paayengi"

Dev and NT were shocked to know this whole story. They did not know Dadi had an heart Attack. NT felt like crying. Maan got up and knelt down in front of NT and held her hands. NT looked at him. Maan spoke, "Bachpan se tumhein jaanta hoon NT, tum bahut modern ladki ho aur career oriented bhi. Agar Mujhe pata nahi hota ki tum parivar ko kitna importance deti ho toh shayad main tumhari Dev se shaadi bhi nahin hone deta, par main jaanta tha ki anaath hone ki wajah se tumhare zindagi mein ek parivar ke, khaas karke Khurana parivar ke kya maayne hain. Isliye maine tumhari aur Dev ki Aur Arjun aur Annie ki shaadi ko manjoori di."

Maan turned towards the window when NT spoke, "Toh kya Veerji aap kabhi shaadi nahin karenge?" Maan turned around and smiled at her, "Kisne kahaa tumse? Main shaadi karoonga lekin aisi ladki jo Career se jyaada Parivar ko ehmiyat de." Naintara suddenly got excited and thought 'Gaaon ki ladkiyaan aisi hi hoti hai. Haan! Humaare Punjab mein toh aisi ladkiyan mil sakti hai.' The moment she finished the thought Maan spoke up, "Lekin who ladki padhi likhi honi chahiye aur independent bhi honi chahiye." 'Gayi bhains paani mein!' thought NT. 'gaaon ki ladki aur who bhi padhi likhi - not possible aur sheher ki ladki par family oriented - again not possible.' Naintara felt her hopes disappearing. "Aisi ladki milna possible nahin hai Veerji!" NT mumbled to which Maan replied, "Mushkil hai impossible nahin! Aur tum hi kehti thi na, ke sab ke liye bhagwaan ne koi na koi banaya hai, toh mere liye bhi koi hogi, independent par family oriented. Tum mere liye ladki dekhna bandh kardo, jab mein use dhoond loonga toh mein khud tumse aake apni shaadi ki baat karoonga." "Matlab aap shaadi karenge?" NT asked and Maan replied in affirmative.

NT got up from her place and stood in front of Maan and extended her hand. "Toh vaada kijiye, Veerji, ki jaise hi aapko ladki pasand aayegi aap unhein humse milvaenge aur shaadi jald se jald karenge." Maan smiled at her, placed his hand on her hand and promised, "Vaada hai NT!" NT smiled back at him when Dev looked at time and spoke, "Arrey! 7 baj gaye. Chalo chalte hain. Bro aap baad mein aayiye, hum abhi nikalte hain." And NT and Dev walked towards the stairs and Maan went to his room to get ready.

Place - Kothi at Lucknow

Khushi shook her head, looked here and there and admitted to herself, SHE WAS LOST. Khushi felt her heartbeats rising in fear. This Kothi was so big that she actually has got lost in it. She looked around in shock. Half an hour back she was happily walking into the Kothi with her sister. She was dressed in one of her best chudidaar kameez with a heavily embroideried dupatta while her sister wore a simple saari. She was happily talking to her Jiji how this Aardar would get the said Jiji married. And now Khushi was lost. She and her sister had noticed that there was no one in the main hall and decided to get separated and search for someone to talk. (They did not know that everybody had gone to see the evening aarti at Mandir except Arnav). While Payal carried half the Sweets, Khushi carried the other half. They decided to meet in half hour in the main hall and now Khushi was lost. She wondered how much her jiji must be panicking when suddenly she noticed a guy dressed in Black suit with his back facing Khushi. Khushi was about to walk towards him and talk to him when suddenly the guy started shouting in his phone and Khushi got scared. She had heard that shaitans and bad people always dressed up in black and his shouting signified that he might not be happy seeing her here. She slowly edged towards the door through which she entered the room a while ago when the guy turned.

Place – Dev and NT's room at Khurana Mansion

Naintara felt tired as she entered her room after coming back from the party but she was happy today. Though Veerji rejected Pari, he also promised NT that he would marry one day, but he was just waiting for the right girl. Yes, She was happy today.

Dev looked at his wife amazed and hugged her from behind. He was happy that his Bro was not against marriage and would get married one day but he did not understand why NT was so adamant to get Maan married. He turned her around but before he could say anything NT spoke, " Hum jaante hain ki aap humse kya poochna chahte hain. Yehi na ki hum Maan Veerji ki shaadi ko lekar itne zidd par kyon hai?" Dev looked at his wife surprised that she understood him so easily.

NT smiled at him and walked towards the window. She stared at the same moon which Maan was staring at few hours ago. She spoke up, "Hum ek anaath hain Dev. Ma toh humaare paida hote chal basi. Babuji bhi kuch saalon baad chal base. Humaare paas kuch nahin tha Arjun Bhai ke sivai. Humaare paas bahut daulat thi par duniya ki sabse badi daulat matlab humaara parivar nahi tha. Rishtedaaron ne humaare saari daulat cheen li aur hum dono ko sadak par phenk diya. Tabhi hamaari naani ki best friend aapki daadi aage aayi. Unhonein humein aur Arjun Veerji ko sambhala, paala posa, aur khayal rakha. Maan Veerji hum dono ke bhai bankar humein hamesha galat logon se bachaate rahe. Dadima ne toh Maan Veerji ki shaadi ke baad hi aapki aur Annie ki shaadi karvaengi aisi zidd pakadli thi. Us waqt Maan Veerji ne unhein manaya. Ab dekhiye Annie Bhabhi aur Arjun Veerji America mein khush hain aur Hum aapke saath hain. Hum Maan Veerji ke bahut shukr guzaar hain aur unhein aur Dadima ko khush dekhna chaahte hain. Itne saalon mein Dadima ne humse kuch nahi maanga. Aur maanga bhi toh sirf itna ki hum Maan Veerji ki shaadi karaadein. Hum bas unki yeh ichha poori karna chahte hain. Aur agar Veerji ki shaadi hui toh woh bhi hum dono ki tarah khush rahenge. Bas humein aur kuch nahi chahiye, Dev. Aur kuch nahi." Dev hugged his wife while thanking God for giving him such a family loving wife.

Place - Kothi at Lucknow

Akash looked at floor dejectedly as he entered the main hall of the Kothi. The remaining family was still at the mandir but Akash had come back as Arnav had messaged him regarding some deal. Akash shook his head. His brother was such a workaholic that he would be signing deals even in his dreams and his worst nightmare must be his fashion show being wrecked by his competitor. Akash smiled at his joke and looked ahead when he noticed a girl in a saree standing in the middle hall with her back facing him. Who is she? Thought Akash as he walked towards her. While the said girl was worried aobut her sister. Kahan gayi Khushi? Payal thought worriedly. Then a horrified thought entered her head. Kahin Kothi ke kitchen mein ghuske Jalebi banane to nahin lagi!

Payal turned around and slammed into a hard chest and the bags containing boxes of mithaai in her hand fell down. She took a step back and was about to fall when someone held her by her waist and steadied her. Payal slowly looked up and stared at a handsome face. And promptly blushed and looked down.

Akash stared at the girl like a fool. Only one thought went through his head. Beautiful! Perfect! The girl took a step behind and her anklets tinkled. The cham-cham of the payal broke Akash from his trance. He spoke, "Aap…… yahaan…..matlab!" Akash was tongue tied. He did not know what to say. The girl spoke up, "Ji ….woh…..yahaan shaadi ….ki baat". Akash could not believe it. Her voice was as sweet as her payal's cham-cham. Her words registered in his brain and he suddenly felt excited. "Aap shaadi karne ke liye aayi hain?" he questioned. The girl blushed and shook her head. Akash looked amused and spoke, "Matlab aap shaadi nahin karenge?" "Karoongi." Replied the girl. "Kya! Aap mujhse shaadi karengi?" questioned Akash amusedly. The girl's eyes widened and looked like they would pop out of their sockets. "Nahin!" She practically screamed. Akash looked down and spoke in a dejected voice, "Aap mujhse shaadi nahin karengi?" The girl looked at him with a jerk and spoke, "Mera matlab woh nahin tha!" "Toh kya matlab tha?" Akash asked her as he took a step towards her and she took a step back. Suddenly the girl fumbled, looked down, picked up her bags and ran away towards the main door.

Akash turned towards her and shouted, "Arrey! Suniye! Suniye Miss. Cham-Cham." The girl stopped at the door. Akash smirked like his brother and shouted, "Apna naam toh bataayiye!" The girl turned around lifted bit of her saree and pointed at her anklets and spoke, "Samajhdaar ko ishaara kafi hai." and turned back. Akash thought for a second and whispered, "Payal!" The girl turned around as if she had heard him, smiled at him and ran away while Akash shouted at her, "Miss. Payal! Hum phir milenge!"

CHAPTER 4. KHUSHI MEETS HER RAKSHAS Oops! Sorry……ARNAV

OR

MY VERY FIRST RABBA VE SCENE

Place - Kothi at Lucknow

"What the!!", Arnav shouted into his phone. "Aman, tum ek kaam dhang se nahin kar sakte! Har cheez ke liye mera wahaan hona jaroori hai kya?" Arnav spoke while gritting his teeth. He cut the phone and glared at it as if it was source of all his problems. Why can't things happen properly for once! He thought. First of all, his Di and Nani threatened him into coming here, then the meeting with ladkiwallahs went wrong with the girl looking more like a model and less like a Raizada bahu material. Then his darling Jiju informed him that the reason behind the Puja which his Di organized for day after tomorrow was so that the Goddess would listen to her and get her Chote married. Arnav could not understand how some Goddess would help in getting him married. After all to get married he has to agree for it. And now, some problem cropped up in AR and he could not even do something about it because he was sitting here in Lucknow. He already was starting to have headache. He wished someone would give him some green tea. But he refused to ask for it because with his luck someone would add sugar in it by mistake.

Arnav was glaring at his phone when he sensed someone's presence behind him and then he heard cham-cham of the payals from behind him. He turned around to shout at the person who disturbed him when he noticed that there was no-one there. The wind started to blow into the room from an open window and the curtains around the room started swaying with the wind. Arnav shook his head. Nowadays, he started imagining things! He should get a check-up, Arnav thought. He started walking towards the door when he felt a presence to his left behind the curtains. He walked towards the presence and swiftly pulled the curtain aside. But there was no-one.

Khushi was scared. The guy sounded too scary. Luckily for her, the moment he turned she hid behind the curtains. She could see his angry expressions. He looked like he was about to explode. Khushi felt her heartbeat rising in fear. Already her eyes were threatening to tear up. She was alone in a room with a rakshas type of guy. By the time he had noticed the curtains and pulled them aside she had taken refuge by a nearby pillar. Her heart was beating so fast that she thought he must have heard it.

Khushi was taking deep breaths and trying to calm her heart down when suddenly someone caught hold of her hand and pulled her away from the pillar and she slammed into a hard chest. Khushi got scared of his anger. Without looking at his face she turned towards the door and ran with her right hand holding the bags containing the boxes of mithaai samples, when suddenly she felt her duppatta being pulled from behind.

Arnav was angry that someone was in the room and tried to escape him. He looked at the girl who slammed into his chest. He could not see her face as it was hidden in his chest. Suddenly the girl turned and tried to run away when her duppatta got stuck into his cufflinks. He tried to look at the girl's face and was about to yell at her for barging into his privacy when she turned. Suddenly a curtain came between and hid the girl's face from below her eyes leaving Arnav with only a glimpse of her face. He stared into her eyes, the only visible part of her face.

Rabba Ve……….Rabba Ve

Ooo……..Rabbaaa Ve

Arnav felt like drowning into her eyes, eyes that showed so many emotions with fear being prominent. As he stared into her eyes, he felt his anger draining away and even his headache going away. Suddenly, he was reminded of a line from a song he heard when his Di was listening to it few days back.

Aankhen dekhi toh main dekhta reh gaya

Jaam dono hi do aur do aatisha

Aankhen yaa maikade ke woh do baab hain

Aankhen unko kahoon yaa kahoon khaab hain

At that time he had rubbished the whole stanza stating that how someone would have jaam in their eyes. Neither could he understand how eyes could be called aatish or maikade ke baab or a khaab. But today he understood those lines as he stared into her eyes. He felt his breath taken away and his heart skipping a beat when the curtain moved from her face and he noticed her whole face.

If it was upto him he would have stood there for eternity. Suddenly he was brought out of trance when the girl moved her left hand towards his left where her duppatta was stuck. He noticed her duppatta and fear in her eyes and smirked. Even though Maan always taught him to respect girls, not treat them in bad manner and never to intrude into their personal space, Arnav felt like ignoring those words of advice, especially the beauty, unlike the girls he had known, did not throw herself at him but was actually scared of him. He slowly twisted his hand and got hold of her duppatta and pulled her with a jerk. She landed right in his arms and looked fearfully at him as if he would gobble her up. "Kaun ho tum?" Arnav whispered. The girl whispered back, "Khushi." Arnav smirked and spoke, "Khushi? Kiski Khushi? Meri Khushi? Tum meri ho?" He tightened his right hand which was on her waist and pulled her even closer. Khushi's whole body stiffened with fear. "Humein chodiye", Khushi mumbled while shaking in fear. "Kyon chodoon? Mujhe tum meri baahon mein achhi lagti ho." Arnav replied. Khushi's eyes widened with fear. Yeh kaisi baatein kar rahe hain? Hey Devi Maiyya! Humein is rakshas se bacha lo. Thought Khushi as she struggled to get away from him. One of the strands of her hair fell on her cheek. Arnav untangled his left hand from her duppatta and moved the strands from her face. Taking the chance to escape, Khushi pushed him with her hands, pulled her duppatta from his hand, turned around and ran away.

Arnav stared at door long after she ran away. "Khushi", he whispered then shook his head as if the name did not suit her. "Afreen" he spoke out loud and smirked. Yes! For the world she must be Khushi but for him she was Afreen, the beautiful. Arnav thought.

P.S. How was my first Arnav-Khushi scene? Please tell me.

P.P.S The stanza is taken from Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Saab's song Afreen Afreen written by Javed Akhtar Saab in year 1996 from the album Sangam. If you want the song then while searching for it search for the remix version featuring Lisa Ray as that one is more cool with fusion of modern music and traditional music and lyrics.
