CHAPTER 8: I Know It Is

"Arnie boy, don't worry this is only the beginning!" Shyam looked on in rage as he saw Arnav's quick and agile feet glide on the streets. Arnav had somehow managed to get out of the ropes when Shyam had gone away for a few minutes. Shyam had to admit, he had underestimated Arnav's strength.

Arnav breathed a sigh of relief, happy that he had managed to get out. All night Arnav had sat on the chair, slowly loosening the ropes. Once he had made sure that he could slip out of them Arnav had waited for the perfect moment to escape. Arnav thumbed down a taxi, and made his way back to his "home sweet home".

"It's your entire fault!" sobbed Khushi. Payal supported her to the couch as Khushi gave dirty glares towards Anjali. "Are you happy now? You've'you broke everything'"

Anjali looked deep into the pained and lonely eye's of Khushi and felt the guilt gnawing at her. "My fault? I'm not the one who left him!

"It's not like I had a choice! Did I? How could I come back when a good-for-nothing b***h was having fun that I had lost the love of my life? That I had to walk away from the only person who ever cared for her? You think I would want my child growing up here with a woman like you around? "

Anjali's face was pale as snow now, the memories of her past finally coming out and haunting her now. She was humiliated and each word that Khushi had spoken was like a slap on her face. But Anjali couldn't say anything because each word that Khushi spoke was true.

"Jiji'Jiju' whose going to heal my heart now?"

Payal embraced her sister tightly. "Khushi, don't give up hope so fast. The police are looking for him."

"Yes bhabi, cheer up, I'm sure Bhai is on his way." Akaash smiled wide at Khushi, but Khushi saw that Akaash's smile never reached his eyes.

"On my way where?" Arnav walked in to the mansion, his clothes and hair a mess.

"Chotte! We were so worried for you. All that blood and now' you're so disordered." Arnav went forward and hugged his Mami. No matter what anyone said, his Mami loved him as her own son.

"Sorry Mamiji. I accidentally hit myself with the razor so I went to the hospital and then I had some work in the office. It was a long night." Immediately, Arnav shifted his eye's to the one person who could make all his tired feelings go away. Khushi's eyes connected with his, and both of them jolted realizing that the pain of being separated killed the other.

"Naniji, you take Arjun." Naniji kissed Arnav on the forehead, happy that he was safe, before taking her great-grandson into her arms. Khushi looked away from Arnav, not being able to meet Arnav's eyes.

"Jehthji I'll bring you coffee." Payal rushed to the kitchen but stopped when she saw Akaash glare at her. Payal glared back and then saw Akaash indicating to look at Arnav. She gasped as she saw Arnav walking away with Khushi in his arms, bridal style. Payal bubbled with happiness for her sister. Arnav would help Khushi's damaged heart. Payal then saw the murderous expression on Anjali's face. Before Anjali could do any damage to the already pained couple, Payal rushed Anjali into the kitchen. Payal thanked the stars when Anjali silently followed her. Maybe we can all finally move on thought Payal.

"Let me go, Laad Governor! I'm not your property." Khushi screamed at the top of her lungs, kicking and punching at the lean man carrying her. Arnav dumped her on his bed.

"Khushi, you've always been mine!" Khushi watched as Arnav sensually came near her and Khushi watched Arnav's gaze drop to her lips. Breathing erratically, Khushi felt her heart constrict itself.

"Don't come any closer. I'm warning you!"

Arnav sighed, realizing that Khushi had only been used to him for a few hours now. Her pain was still lingering and Arnav hadn't done anything to move the pain away.

"Khushi, I don't want to force you into anything. But are you going to be like me and deny this feeling, this feeling of perfection? Are you going to lie to me and tell me that it doesn't exist? Well, news flash Khushi. It exists. And damn, it feels so right to have you in my arms'" Khushi couldn't move her gaze away any longer. He was hypnotizing and he was right.

"No. You're not right. You hate me and I hate you. Let me live reality Arnav'because you're just a dream."

"No. You're not right. I never hated you. Never had and I never will. Want to know why I can't hate you Khushi? It's because I'm freakin' head over heels in love with you. Read my eyes and see the truth in them. I. Love. You." Khushi slumped down defeated. The look in his eyes was mesmerizing and the truth was in the warm chocolate brown eyes that looked tenderly and gently at her. He did love her.

"One chance, Mr. Raizada, I'm giving you one chance. In the name of our child and our so-called-love, you have one chance and one chance only." Khushi smiled up at Arnav to see his own mouth turned upwards.

"You won't regret it at all. I love you." And with that said, Arnav crashed Khushi into his chest and cupped her cheeks in his hands. Slowly, he moved down and set the fireworks alight by giving her a kiss on her lips, full of 1 whole year's desire. "I missed you so much."

~0oOO0~

Downstairs, the Raizada doorbell rang. HP opened the door and called Nani down to greet the guest. Nani ran when she saw the face of the person and hugged the slim figure in a tight grip.

"It's been so long, Lavanyaji!" cried Nani. Lavanya smiled back with every single piece of her heart.

"I've missed you so much! And I hope I'm welcome to stay!"

"You're welcome as long as you want. Now come on in, don't be a stranger this is your house too."

"I know this is my house Nani. I know it is." Lavanya smiled once again, but this time Nani felt there was something deeper behind that smile. Deciding that she was just being paranoid, Nani took Lavanya to meet everyone else.

I know it is.
