Part 29:
Khushi entered inside her home and the family were shocked to see her... Anjali came running and then hugged her..
Anjali: Khushi.. You here?? He left you?
Khushi: Yeah Di.. He left me here for some days.. He's going out for some work .. Soo..
Anjali: What? You mean he will come back to take you?
Khushi: Hmm..
Anjali was feeling a bit different the way Khushi behaved.. She still made her sit with the others in the Living room.
Everyone were shooting questions on her.. And she was not understanding what to reply and what not..
Khushi: I can only say. I am happy with him.. And I want to stay with him..
Shyam: Happy? Look at you Khushi.. You are so tired.. He doesnt even give you time to rest I guess..
Khushi: Shyam.. Please.. He is my husband now.. And well I am tired because I couldnt sleep properly at night.. Nothing else..
Anjali: What? You mean he again tried to..
Khushi was getting irritated now..
Khushi: Enough everyone.. I told you yesterday that he never forced me again.. Infact yesterday night we mutually.. (PAUSED)
Anjali: Mutually What Khushi?
Khushi remembered all the moments that they shared last night., SHe was in tears again.. But these tears were not due to any pain..
Anjali shook her..
Anjali: Khushi.. Tell us.. What did you mean by that?
Khushi: Di.. Actually.. We ..
Anjali: We?? We What?
Khushi: We both.. (She paused)..
She thought why was she even telling this to them. It was her and her husbands matter.. She moved from there and no one stopped her.. They all guessed that these two had already consummated .. There was no way to get Khushi back from him.. She was totally in him now..
That evening Aman came to Gupta House..
Khushi: Aman.. Thanks for getting these stuffs here.. Actually he surprised me getting here from the shopping directly..
Aman smiled..
Aman: So.. All surprises have started between you both then..
Khushi blushed..
Khushi: What do you mean Aman.?
Aman: Well nothing.. WHy didnt you go with him to Manali? I mean he had told me yesterday he would take you along..
Khushi: He didnt ask me.. he left me here..
Aman: I see.. I guess he's taking some other girl then..
Khushi: What?
Aman laughed..
Aman: Jealous..
Khushi: Aman.. I am his wife..
Aman: Thank God Khushi.. You didnt say FORCED WIFE..
Khushi: Look Aman.. Be serious.. What work does he have in Manali?
Aman: New Venture turning up there.. So..
Khushi: When is he coming back..?
Aman: How would I know.. ? I mean now you are his wife.. He would be intimating you all this..
Khushi: He said 5 days...
Aman: Ok.. Then that may be correct.. Well so what after 5 days Khushi?
Khushi: After 5 days? Means?
Aman: Any plans for Honeymoon? Or you both satisfied with that Guest House only?
Khushi: Shut up Aman..
Aman smiled..
He knew all was well between his Boss and his Boss's wife now..
Aman: Well Khushi.. I guess you should also go to Manali..
Khushi: Me? No Aman.. I cant go.. He left me here.. What will he think?
Aman: Why do you think so much Khushi.. Leave it on me..
Khushi: But What will I do there?
Aman: Now I cant explain that Khushi.. I mean you told me he tastes bitter.. So you can try tasting him now going there.. May be he tastes a bit sweet?
Khushi was very much blushing now..
Aman: So its done.. I will make your arrangements to go to Manali.. Ok? And that too tomorrow.. Dont waste time.. Just go and pack.
He said that and left Gupta House.. Khushi was packing her stuff in a bag when Garima entered inside..
Garima: Khushi.. Why are you packing? You going somewhere?
Khushi was damm busy in packing..
Khushi: Yess Maa.. I am going to Manali.
Garima: Manali? Why?
Khushi: I want to be with him Maaa. Nothing else..
Garima: Are you ok Khushi? He himself left you here.. Then why are you going? Let him come back from there.
Khushi: Maa.. I dont want any Ego clashes between us.. If he could not call me.. Thats fine.. I can go there and surprise him..
Garima: What has that guy did to you in one night Khushi that you have changed so much.. Look at you,.. You didnt even bother to tell us once you leaving..
Khushi: Maa.. He is my husband.. I mean.. I never felt like this before.. I dont want to sit here and miss him. Please Maa..
Garima noded and left. It was Evening and Khushi called Aman again..
Aman: Khushi.. I am so sorry.. You cannot go to Manali.
Khushi: Why?
Aman: Because he is not staying in Manali..
Khushi was stunned to hear this..
Khushi: What do you mean Aman..? Where is he then?
Aman: He is flying to bangkok.. Just for 4 days and he will be back.. A very important meeting lined up there.. He said he would call you before he leaves.. Ok?
Khushi felt bad. She kept the call and then desperately waited for him to call her back..And yes he called her at night.. SHe answered the call immediately..
Khushi: Arnav.. WHere are you? Aman told me you going to Bangkok.. Why? I mean When will you return??
Arnav: Sshh!! Stop freaking me out by asking me so many questions Khushi.. Relax..
She was quiet.. It looked as if it was so long she didnt hear him.. Seen him.. Felt him...
Arnav: I am at the Airport.. Boarding the flight in next 30 minutes.. I will be back in 4 days.. You allright? I mean what are you doing?
Khushi: I.. I was waiting for your call..
Arnav: Why?
Khushi was quiet.. She didnt reply.. She was in tears.. She herself didnt understand why she was feeling so much for him..
Arnav: Well.. Khushi.. I wanted to ask you something..
Khushi: What?
Arnav: Khushi Do you.. I mean Do you L...
There was an announcement at the background for all the Passengers to board the Flight...
Arnav: Khushi.. I need to go.. I will call you back once I reach. Bye...
He said that and kept the call. She cried.. She cried a lot tonight.. She was already missing him and his last half question made her suffer more.. She knew he wanted to ask her if she Loves him.. The answer was a YES.. Only if he could have asked her and heard her response..
