Part 7:
Arnav: Di.. I am just so tried doing them all.. So please.. Not now..
Anjali: I am not asking you to do anything.. Just leave Khushi with us for a while and we will send her to relax with you soon.. Please
Arnav looked at Khushi.. He was afraid she shouldnt do something which would Flop all his efforts till now..
Khushi: Arnavji.. You move ahead.. I will Come in sometime..
Anjali liked what Khushi did.. Arnav looked at her with a bit of arrogance and gestured her to make sure nothing goes wrong.. He then moved back to his room..
**********
Arnav changed to his night clothes. She was still not in the room. Well he knew his family.. They must be shooting questions at her about how they met and why they got married so soon.. Well he cannot leave everything on her.. He had to move down.. He put his slippers and then came down.. But to his surprise he didnt find anyone questioning her.. Anjali was showing Khushi the house and Nani and others were busy pouring Milk and some Rose Petals in a huge Bowl... Well that was sure some another Rasam he thought..
Anjali: And Khushi this is the Kitchen.
Khushi moved inside and saw it.. It was so big.
Khushi: This Kitchen is so big Anjaliji..
Anjali: Again Anjaliji? Khushi.. I told you call me Di.. CHotte calls me Di only..
Khushi: Chottey? Who is he?
Anjali heard that and started laughing.. Arnav heard that and he knew she must have surely asked something to his Di innocently.. He instantly came there and saw his Di holding her stomach and laughing and Khushi all confused..
Arnav: Di.. What happened? Why are you laughing like this?
Khushi: She said some Chottey calls her Di.. So I asked her who is Chottey and she started laughing..
Arnav grinned at Khushi and then replied back..
Arnav: Di and Nani calls me Chottey sometimes.
Anjali: Sometimes Chottey?? (She again started laughing..) .. Well I guess you forgot to tell her that.. No issues.. Khushi.. Actually me and Nani call Arnav Chotte only.. And not sometimes.. But ALL the TIMES...
Khushi bit her lower lip and a small smile appeared on her lips thinking what that "CHOTTEY" is supposed to mean? He was the elder son of this house then why did they call him like that?
Arnav: Di.. Are you planning to show her the entire house today only? SHe is here for a long time.. So..
Anjali suddenly became a bit serious and looked at Arnav..
Anjali: Not long time Chotte.. She is here forever.. She is your wife.. What did you mean by long time..??
Arnav was shocked.. How could he even utter such a phrase here.. He looked at Khushi once and then replied back..
Arnav: Di.. I meant.. I keep on going here and there for my business so I cant keep her here. She too would be travelling with me all the time.. But for some months I am not planning any trips. .. So she is here with me for long.. You dont need to show the house to her all today.. Ok?
Anjali: Fine.. But then since now you have come down.. Let us finish one simple ritual before you both go off to sleep..
Arnav: Di..Please.. (He said in a sleepy voice..)
Anjali: If you love your Di then you wont deny..
She said that and moved out leaving the two.. Arnav took a deep breathe and then walked behind Anjali and Khushi followed him..
Anjali came to the Living room where all the others had gathered..
Anjali: Chotte, Khushi.. Come here and sit opposite each other..
Khushi and Arnav looked at each other once and then did as told.. The huge Vessel fo milk and some rose petals inside it was placed in between them and then some Pebals were put inside it..
Arnav: Whats this Di?
Anjali: Chotte.. Wait.. Dont be so eager to know.. This is all your fault.. You were not present during Akash's wedding.. So you dont know a bit of these rituals..
Akash: Yes Bhai Trust me I was more scraed than what you are now..
Arnav: Akash.. Who said I am scared?
Shyam: Well Saale Sahab.. Its looks as if you are..!! (Everyone started gigling and Khushi was smiled.. )
Khushi could see one thing today.. Every member of the house liked him, loved him and most importantly respected his decisions.. No one in the house even questioned him anything.. She always was made aware by Aman about these stuffs but today she personally saw this happening.. He was truely the most important person in the Raizada family..
Anjali: Ok.. So now we are going to drop a ring inside this Vessel and you both should be searching it together.. The one who finds it would win..
Arnav: Gosh!! Thats the ritual? Its a Kids play Di..
Nani: Chotte it has its own significance..
Arnav: Really? Whats that?
Maami: Arnav Bitwa let me tell you what significance it has.. The one who wins would be said to dominate in between the two.. Like .. I won during my time and I am still dominating on your Maama.. (Everyone started laughing including Maamaji and Khushi too couldnt help but smile..)
Aman had always told her about the funny acts of Maamiji and today she could see it on her own.. Well the family was really good, patient and comfortable.. Everything looked at its place except the person opposite to her, her husband...
Anjali: Okay.. So here is the ring.. And here I go.. (She dropped the Gold ring inside the Vessel And Arnav and Khushi immediately immersed their right hands to find the ring.. She stopped searching when their fingers touched.. He smiled at her..
Arnav: You wont win if you keep staring at me like that..
Everyone blushed hearing this.. So their Chotte wanted his wife to win? Aww...
Khushi again started searching and Arnav was taking his own sweet time .. Everyone could see how desperate she was to search that ring first but Arnav was too cool and calm as if he didnt bother.. But suddenly his expressions changed when he found the ring in his fingers with no efforts.. He was about to pick it and show it to others claiming his Win but then he saw her still searching for it.. She was so eager to win that she didnt even bother she was almost touching, moving his fingers easily which came in her way.. He held her finger tight for a second and she looked at him with her eyes wide open.. She suddenly felt him passing something to her in her fingers.. At first she felt it must be some pebals but no she could feel the shape of it and she understood it was the ring.. But the question was why was he giving it to her? He wanted to lose? The GAME? Really? Would he ask something in return from her for this favour? Ohh Welll.. This didnt seam to be so good as it had to be, she thought.. He smiled and left the ring in her hand and she picked it up and showed it to others..
Everyone smiled and cheered for Khushi.. Arnav was all the time seeing her.. The way she smiled when Anjali hugged her for winning.. Nani kissed her forehead and she bent to take her blessings and then Maami told her something in her ears and she blushed.. She was soo damm gorgeous.. He got up to leave for his room when Anjali stopped him again..
Anjali: Chottey.. What is this.. Where are you leaving?
Arnav: You said only 1 Ritual Di.. And its over..
Anjali: No.. Its not over yet.. You need to make Khushi wear this ring in her finger.. I am sure you didnt get enough time to get engaged to her and then marry.. So lets do it now.
Everyone cheered again for Arnav and Khushi and she looked at him once and then moved to him. He took the ring from her hand and then made her wear it in her finger.. Everyone clapped and then they both took the blessings of the elders together..
**************
An hour passed and Khushi had still not seen her room .. Which meant her room for next 6 months.. She remembered how he helped her winning tonight at the ritual and she also knew it was on purpose which meant he was supposed to ask her something for helping her.. She then remembered their night in Dubai where he was almost on the verge of making her his and Aman had interfered in between.. She then remembered Aman had told her that he wont be there to help her all the time.. From now on she was on her own..
Anjali saw her in deep thoughts and she asked her..
Anjali: Khushi.. What are you thinking so much?
Khushi: Nothing Anjaliji.. Oopps.. I mean Di..
Anjali smiled at her.. She was really the best Bhabhi she could ever get..
Anjali: Okay.. So time to show you your room then.. Well I know you already have finished your Suhaagraat with Chotte. But still this is your first night in Raizada house so we thought of making this a special one..
Khushi was almost breathless hearing this.. Arnav who was talking to Akash and Shyam also heard it and then looked at Khushi..
Khushi: I didnt get it Di..
Anjali: You will but then for that you and CHotte need to go to your room..
Anjali called Arnav and he came to them.
Anjali: So I will come to drop you both till your room.. Fine?
Anjali held Arnav and Khushi's hands and they started walking upstairs.. They finally reached the room and then she opened the door.. The lights were swtiched off. Anjali switched on the lights and then they saw Arnav's bed decorated for them.. Arnav smirked and looked at Khushi who was clutching the ends of her Saree Palu not wanting to understand what was going to happen with her tonight..
Anjali: Ok then Chotte and my Sweet Khushi bhabhi.. Good night..
She left the room and Arnav moved towards the door to close it.. Khushi was breathing hard.. She knew she couldnt ignore this night. She had to face it..
