Part 55:
Arnav: Khushi.. Get your shower.. We need to leave for some shopping for tonights Function..
Daadi was a bit furious again.. She got up to leave.. Khsuhi looked at her but she didnt.. She opened the door and went out..
Khushi then came to Arnav and hugged him..
Khushi: If she doesnt want me to come then..
Arnav: Sshhh1!! We both are going Khushi.. That house is just not hers.. Its my mothers too..
Khushi: Your mothers?
Arnav: Hmm..
Khushi didnt ask him anything .. She knew when times comes he would tell her all..
*****************
The Shopping was done and Khushi bought herself a While Lehnga with Red Work on it.. It was her husbands choice.. They were all set for the Party which was in Sheesh Mahal.. Arnav didnt speak much after they came back from the shopping.. May be the thought of going back to Sheesh Mahal was haunting him .. He dressed in his black suit and waited for Khushi to come out getting dressed.. She came out wearing the white Dress and looked at Arnav nervously. He admired her beauty.. She looked so sweet in that dress.. She had left her hair open and he loved seeing her like that..
Khushi: Arnav.. Is it looking good? I mean I never wore something like this..
Arnav came to her and kissed her nose.. She blushed when he did that.. It conveyed to her how cute she was looking ..
Arnav: Beautiful.. I think now the dress is worth its price as its worn by you ..
She smiled and he held her hand and they walked out of the Hotel towards their car.. The place was just half an hour drive from the Hotel. Arnav was again quiet.. She could read his silence.. His heart was beating faster than before.. Todays day surely had some importance and thats the reason he wasnt comfortable.. She still didnt question him anything.. They reached the Sheesh Mahal gates and the Security were clearing all the Vehicles for his CAR to enter inside.. There were many many guests invited for tonights party.. Everyone who knew the Malik Family from the beginning.. Arnav's car made its way to the Parking and he parked his car.. They got down and 2 guards immediately escorted them towards the main door of the Mahal.. She was just admiring the place and its beauty.. It was truely a Palace and her husband was no less than a Prince himself.. He had stayed here in his childhood days.. She could see every security, every servant and every guards saluting him and greeting him as "Chotte Malik".. But he never payed any attention towards them.. He was acting very much formal.. The media was near and all he had to do was just smile taking Khushi beside him..
The media had met Mrs ASR long back during the wedding and the reception but seeing the couple together in Sheesh Mahal was an icing on the cake..Everyone knew Arnav had changed his Surname from Arnav Malik to Arnav Singh Raizada.. Why was a question they were never answered and somewhere the media thought of getting this answer from him today, if possible..
It was difficult for the media persons to take his interview as he showed no interest in them today.. His eyes were set on his wife and the people who were admiring this couple.. Many from the Malik family had seen Khushi only in the News of their wedding.. And today was a day they saw the one and only one Bahu of the Malik Family personally.. No doubt her innocent looks was attracting every person there in the Party.. If this was the situation here at the Sheesh Mahal doors what would be it when they enter inside?
Khushi and Arnav clicked many pictures outside.
Infact Arnav introduced him to some guests he met at the doors.
And then finally they moved inside the Sheesh Mahal.. Her original Sasuraal.. As the doors opened, she was stunned to see the main Hall.. It was almost 10 times the Living room of Raizada Mansion.. The walls were not visible as they were covered by Rose petals ..
Khushi: Roses.. Wow..!!
Arnav: My Mumma loved Roses.. And I know you too..
She smiled at him and they moved forward.. The people were eating, drinking and mainly enjoying every luxury that was served to them there.. She could see people admiring them and smiling at them.. They were surely centre of attraction today.. Though Arnav wasnt the Host.. He himself was a guest today in his own Palace but he liked being so.. It was far better than greeting and welcoming people being a host..
Arnav: Khushi.. Wait here .. I will get us some drink..
Khsuhi: No Arnav.. Please take me with you.. I am scared.. I mean what if Daadi comes to me ?
Arnav cupped her face..
Arnav: My eyes are on you Khushi.. Dont worry.. She wont.. And even if she does , I would handle her.. Ok?
She smiled and he left for getting the drink.. He met some friends in between and he started talking to them.. Khsuhi was waiting near a Pillar seeing the pictures of his childhood.. She saw one picture where his Dad was trying to teach him how to Shoot using a Gun.. SHe then saw a family picture of him, Anjali with their parents.,. He must be 12 years old in that picture, she thought.. But he still had that Killer looks.. She blushed and continued walking seeing the next picture..
Thats when she felt someone behind her watching her.. She immediately turned behind and saw his Daadi seeing her with angry eyes..
Khushi stopped where she was and then looked at her..
Daadi: Enjoying the party?
Khushi: Jee..??
Daadi: I mean you are seeing such a party for the first time.. Arent you?
Khushi knew where she tried to take this conversation.. She didnt wanted to feel bad and nervous.. She couldnt expect her husband to always come and defend her.. She sometimes needed to fight on her own..
Khushi: Yes.. This is the first grand party I am ever seeing in my lifetime.. And why not.. It had to be this grand.. Afterall its related to my husband..
Daadi: Ohh No Khushi.. Dont be in such false hopes.. Yeah I understand this party is related to your husband.. But he wont be related to you for much longer.. So enjoy as much as you can.. Who knows which party would be your last one with him as his wife?
Khushi was about to say something when Arnav came and held her hand..
Arnav: Daadi is right Khushi.. I think this would be the last party of you being my wife..
Khushi gave him a serious look questioning him what he meant by this.. He smiled at her and then replied seeing his Daadi..
Arnav: I mean from our next party onwards, you would be promoted to be my Child's mother and not just my wife anymore..
She smiled.. She now understood how good he was to defend her always.. She placed her head on his shoulder and he slid his hand on her waist and they both excused from there and moved aside..
Daadi was fuming.. She called a Servant and told him something.. The servant agreed and moved..
Daadi (To herself): No Khushi.. I wont let you snatch my grandson from me like his mother snatched my son..
*******************
Arnav and Khushi were enjoying the people and the party in Sheesh Mahal.. They were the Royal Guests tonight and Arnav was slowly slowly opening up his past to her..
Arnav: You see that Roon upstairs..?
KHushi looked at the direction he pointed..
Khushi: Hmm.. The first one?
Arnav: Yes.. That room is mine.. Its the biggest room in Sheesh Mahal..
Khushi: Really? So they gave you so much honour right from childhood?
Arnav: Well. They had to.. I was very much stubborn those days.. What I wanted .. I always got..
Khushi stopped and looked at him..
Khushi: You still are the same.. You wanted me since day 1 and see .. I am with you.. Now and forever..
She smiled but he didnt like what she said..
Arnav: No Khushi.. I am not the same now... I have changed.. I used to get things what I wanted only from my anger and then use them as I wished and throw them off.. I am not like that anymore.. I wanted you, I got you,,but then I am trying to get you by love Khushi.. Not by anything else that I did initially..
Khushi felt bad.. She was just pulling his legs and he took it seriously.. She held his hand..
Khsuhi: I am sorry.. I was just kidding.. I didnt mean to hurt you Arnav..
Arnav: Thats Ok.. You will be punished for that..
Khsuhi: Really? And what will that punishment be?
Arnav: Will let you know later.. Not now..
She smiled and they started walking ahead.. He introduced her to many other people and they all praised her beauty and their perfect pair.. She always blushed when people did that.. She liked them praising them as a pair.. Daadi was all the while seeing them and was surely fuming.. Her Grandson was in Love with this Girl for sure.. But till when she thought and smiled..
