Chapter 1: Black or Nothing
4 months have passed ever since Arnav forced Khushi into getting married threatening her with Payals wedding.
It was a casual normal Friday morning Akash and Arnav had left for work while all the ladies sat together chatting.
Payal and Anjali made an announcement...
''As we all know it's Akash's birthday this Sunday and as part of the mastermind plan we all made, 'we have all forgotten!' Poor Akash he thinks we forgot'' Anjali bursts out laughing.
''The more sad and frustrated he gets the better the surprise will be and double the happiness! ''Said an exited Payal.
''Hello Hie Bye Bye, My son has married a khoon bari tang Witch who only wants my son to be sad, An amereekan girl would have kept him happy at the very least!! '' Manorama bitterly taunted.
''Oh no no, Mami ji you are misunderstanding Jiji, she is only doing this so that Jeejaji experiences double the happiness after the surprise'' Khushi explained sweetly. ''Hello Hie Bye Bye, Don't advise me, Patti sari !!'' Manorama growled.
''MANORAMA, Khushi bitiya is absolutely correct, and there is no need for your needless overreaction! And as far as I can remember you have never thrown my son a surprise party for anything, you never see me complaining about you so I advise you to stop making absurd comments that will hurt others feelings'' Nani shouted fiercely.
''Ab ba ab Sasu ma'' Manorama stuttered and walked off embarrassed.
Anjali placed her warm hand on Payals shoulder ''Please don't be disheartened Payalji, you know Mami's personality''.
Payal smiled and said ''Imp not, don't worry, she's only like this because she cares and that means a lot to me''.
They all smiled.

Night time
Arnav walks into his room only to find his wife and her best friend chatting away even though it is a one-sided conversation
''You know what Laxmi ji if it wasn't for you, I honestly don't know who I would talk to when I'm on my own'' she kissed Laxmi and carried on blabbering.
''Completely stuck with this crazy girl'' Arnav sighed feeling a bit sad though because the only thing she could talk to was a goat when alone in their room.
He stared at his wife laughing away he couldn't help but notice how what and incredible smile she had and just stared from a distance.
Just then Anjali walked in steering Laxmi out the room, she closed the door properly and faced Arnav and Khushi.
''Is everything alright Di ?'' Arnav questioned worried.
''What should I say chote, I couldn't be better, well we have all come up with a new idea just now, its about the dress code for the surprise party!!''
''I'm seriously not interested Di'' he said
''I seriously don't care, rules are rules and you must follow this dress code rule chote!! Anyways the dress code is that all couples must wear the same color for example me and him(Shyam) are both wearing red, Payal and Akash are wearing Akash's favorite color green, Mama and Mami are both wearing pink, Last but not least Nani and Laxmi are wearing pale mint green !!!.''
Arnav raised his eyebrows in utter disbelief on how pointless and ridiculous this idea was but was almost about to break into a laugh.
''Oh wow, What a great idea, I honestly cant wait to see Mamaji wearing pink'' she laughed.
'' BUT WAIT'' her eyes wide with shock went through her when she figured out what colour was coming her way.
''Whats wrong Khushi ji ?'' Anjali now highly worried.
. . .
''I DONT WANNA WEAR BLACK!!'' knowing her shaithan (beast) husband only wears black, Placing her hands on her head causing a tantrum she wailed like a 3year-old''NAHEEE''.
Anjali and Arnav couldn't help but burst out into a crazy laughter.
Arnav was laughing out so loud that Khushi and Anjali both forgot what was going on and just stared at his beautiful, innocent and cute laugh and smile.
Khushi was smitten and awe-struck, she never noticed how adorable her husband was ''wow, if he has an amazing smile like that he should seriously laugh more often' she thought smiling.
Anjali placed her hand on his right cheek and said ''Maybe I should stop counting now but this is the 3rd time Khushiji has made you laugh so openly,
I'm so glad that you are married to the woman who makes an angry chote like you laugh uncontrollably, You and Khushi are a match made in heaven I tell you''
With her other hand she placed her hand on Khushi's cheek and said ''Khushiji I'm so glad you two are together, It really makes me happy, He might be a angry young man at times but he loves you deeply and dearly I can see it clearly in his eyes, And no-one can read his eyes more clearly than me'' and with that overwhelming moment Anjali withdrew happily and sensing they both had their deep stare going on she left the room.
Now alone.
They were both caught in a deep gaze between each other because of what Anjali had said it hit them both hard on the head as if some kind of a wake up call.
Khushi's mind kept repeating what Anjali had said 'he loves you deeply and dearly'
''why did Di say that ?'' she broke the silence
''she should be saying that, we are a happily married couple . . .''
Arnav slowly walked towards her
''. . . Only for the world remember'' raising his eyebrow as he caught her off guard.
''How can I forget? It was the worst day of my life'' she gave him a fierce look.
He turned away to get changed but before he wanted to ask her ''what's wrong with the color black? ''
''Nothing, why do you ask'' she replied completely forgetting about the surprise party dress code.
''Okay then, we will both be wearing black, don't forget''
She remembered and protested ''No I don't want to wear black!! Why should we wear your favorite color? My favorite color is yellow so we will wear yellow, End of discussion ''
''Have you lost it ? We are wearing black! Don't argue with me''
''I'd rather wear nothing than be wearing matching colors with you!!''
He moved closer to her face, smirking slightly
''okay then, I will wear black and you will wear nothing, confirmed''
''What no I didn't mean it like that obviously!''
''Good because wouldn't want to put everyone into a shock of horror'' he teased her
Khushi naively asked ''They'd be shocked, but why would they be scared? And how would you know , you've never seen me like that ...''realizing the awkward words that out her mouth she looked away.
Arnav taking in what she said, his penetrating gaze roamed her from head to toe taking advantage of her words.
Him alone looking at her like that made the room heat up instantly for her as she watched his eyes trace her body with an almost grin.
''W-what are y you looking at '' she asked hesitantly trying to widen out her dupatta.
He walked towards her and spoke . . .
