Part 16:
Arnav reached Delhi and back to RM. He was tired.. Anjali had kept some Pooja the next day for the well being of the Family and thus was busy in inviting people. She was talking on the Phone but then seeing Arnav coming down she kept the call..
Anjali: Chotte... I thought you will rest for sometime..
Arnav: No DI.. Have loads of work to do
Anjali: Hmm.. So how was the trip?
Arnav: Good Di.
Anjali: So the deal is done?
Arnav: Which Deal?
Anjali: Mittal's deal.. And which else you thought?
Arnav remembered that currently no deal other than getting Khushi back to him was important to him.
Arnav: Yeah.. Well .. That deal is still On. Not signed the papers yet..
Anjali: Ok.. How is Khushi? I mean she had hit her leg right?
Arnav: Khushi? She is fine now..
Anjali: You both came back together?
Arnav: No Di.. She started first.. Well.. Why are you asking me all this?
Anjali: Ohh ..!! Just asked Chotte..
Arnav made his way to his room back for doing some work..
In Gupta House
Shashi: Khushi.. What are you doing here in the Kitchen?
Khushi: Making COffee Dad for myself. I seriously need one..
Shashi: Fine.. But you could have asked someone to make it for you.. WHy you?
Khushi: Dad.. Cant I make a simple coffeee?
Shashi: You can.. But you never did this before.. So I asked.. Is everything Ok Khushi?
Khushi: Yes Dad.. All is well..
She said that, took the Coffee and went back to her room to rest.
Next Day:
In AR Group.
Akash: Bhai.. Are you sure you want us to wait for some more time before we sign the Mittal Deal?
Arnav: Yes Akash..
Akash: Bhai then why are we announcing this to the media ? We can keep it to ourselves.. Why are we informing them that we will think on the deal for the next 3 days and then sign it after that?
Arnav: Akash.. Do as I say.. Ok? And well yes.. I am leaving early home today.
Akash: Me too Bhai.. Payal has strictly informed me to be on time.. We have the Pooja today.. So
Arnav: I forgot.. In that Case I should better stay here and work..
Akash: Bhai.. Why? You can still work from home.. And no one is that good enough to convince you to attend it. No one will disturb you..
Arnav: Hmm... Fine..
Arnav and Akash left for Home and Arnav was in his room working while the Pooja was getting started. Anjali came in his room.
Anjali: Chotte. I am asking you the last time.. Are you coming down or not?
Arnav: No Di.. I am not.. Please.. I have much important stuff to do..
Meanwhile HP came inside the room
HP: Anjali Di.. Payal Bhabhi is calling you down. He family has come.
Arnav: Entire Family?
HP: Yes Bhaiyaa..
Arnav: You mean even Khushi?
HP: Jee Bhaiya.. Everyone..
He said that and left teh room. But Anjali was quite surprised to see Arnav asking for Khushi specifically.. What did that mean?
Anjali: Fine Chotte.. I am leaving.. Incase you still wish to work and not come down.. I wont force you..
She said that and left his room. SHe knew if what she was thinking was right then Arnav would surely come down in some time.. She smiled and left. Arnav was restless. She was so near to him. How can he avoid her like this.. He had to go down. He got freshen up. He was wearing a white shirt with grey waist coat and black trouser.. He didnt bother to change it. He came down.
Khushi was talking to Payal.. She had worn a beautiful Yellow Saree whith Silver border. She had left her hair loose and she looked very simple yet gorgeous.
Payal: Khushi.. I am so shocked to see you in a Pooja.. I mean you never had time for all this before..
Khushi: DI.. I still didnt wanted to come.. But Dad insisted.. He said that it wont look good if we all didnt come here.. SO I had to come..
Anjali: Ohh Hoo.. Khushi.. I must say you looking very pretty today in this Saree..
Khushi: Thanks Di..
Anjali: Well.. So hows your leg? I mean your pain?
Khushi: Its fine DI.. I am all good..
Anjali then saw Arnav coming down. He was only looking at Khushi with all desired filled eyes.. He soo soo missed that night in Lucknow.. He knew she did too. Anjali could see him staring Khushi. She knew what she had to do.
Anjali: Khushi.. Can you help me in some stuff?
Khushi: Yeah Di.. Sure..
Payal: Di.. But Khushi does not know all this..
Anjali: So what? I will teach her..
She said that and took Khushi with her in the Living room where the Pooja stuff was arranged.. She asked Khushi to lit all the Diya's on the Table nearby. Khushi went to the table and started lighting them. Anjali went to do some other stuff leaving her alone. Arnav saw her lighting the Diya and he was totally lost seeing the Light of the Diyas on her innocent face. She was enjoying what she was asked to do. She felt nice doing all this.. As if she was and only she was meant to do this.
Anjali then came to Arnav and gave him a tray of somemore Diya in his hands..
Anjali: Chotte.. Can you please give this to Khushi and ask her to light them too?
Arnav: No Di.. I wont..
Anjali: Why?
Arnav: I am not interested in giving.. Simple..
He said that and left the place.. Anjali was surprised.. If he can admire her from there, she was giving him a chance to be with her but he denied.. Why?
The Pooja started and then everyone seated down when the Priest chanted the hyms.. Arnav was sitting with Akash and Khushi with Anjali in the side row.. She didnt look at him at all but he made sure of glancing her whenever no one saw him doing it.. Payal said something to Khushi in her ears and then she said something to Payal and got up to leave to the Kitchen.
Arnav too got up behind her and followed her.. Though no one noticed this.
Khushi was in the Kitchen searching for some Ghee and she found the vessel on the Kitchen slab. She was about to take the vessel in her hand when the vessel was taken off by someone else. She turned to see who it was and saw him.
She was little hesitant to face him alone.
Khushi: Arnav.. Give me the vessel.. All are waiting for this outside
Arnav: Why are you acting all shy and girly? You were not like this before..
Khushi: I am not shy Arnav.. And I would never be girly enough as you think I am.. Give me the vessel.
Arnav: You want it.. Then take it from me..
Khushi: Arnav.. Dont play now.. Please.. All are waiting.
Arnav: Play? I am playing?
Khushi: Yes.. This is not the time to argue Arnav.. Give it to me..
Arnav: The Khushi I knew..used to just grab things, snatch things what she wanted.. She never asked.. What happened today?
Khushi: I am not in a mood Arnav.. Please..
Arnav: Really? Which mood Khushi you are in then today Khushi?
He started moving towards her and she made her steps back. She finally hit the Kitchen Slab and she stopped.. He closed the gap between them and then he saw the little remains of his teeth marks on her shoulder..
Arnav: Are they paining?
Khushi looked in his eyes.. as if questioning him what was he asking about..
Arnav: I am talking of the bites.. I gave you that night.. Is it still paining?
Khushi: Arnav.. Leave me..
Arnav: Dont you miss that night Khushi? Do you even know how passionate that night could have been if we wouldnt have dozed off?
Khushi looked at the other side.. She was breathing hard.. She was unable to control her feelings any longer listening all this from him.
Arnav: Do you even know what I felt when didnt answer my calls?
Khushi: Arnav.. I was least interested in talking to you.. So I didnt pick..
Arnav: What The..!! Why Khushi? Why did you run away?
Khushi: Because I never wanted to be there.. with you.. I was wrong Arnav.. I should not have crossed my limits.. I repent for that.. You understand that? I do repent for that night..
She pushed him and took the vessel from his hand and leaving the Kitchen. Arnav was not shocked to listen this. He knew she would be giving some damm false answers to him. But her eyes spoke the truth.. He stopped her again and then pinned her to the wall..
Arnav: You repent right for that night? Fine.. But I still dont.. Now let me make myself clear Khushi.. I have really good intentions for you.. And based on that let me advice you something.. I am getting the Mittal Deal signed in next 3 days.. Incase you change your mind and want to own the deal, I need a YES from your end for the marriage.. If you still dont do that then I know what needs to be clicked to get you married to me.. So you better say Yes before I do something really you dont wish for..
He said that and left her.
