~ Someone... ~
"SOMEONE….Arnav…"
Khushi's eyes popped out at the very thought. Did Akash refer to Arnav as that someone? Did he know or was she making up things?
The very thought of falling in love ONCE AGAIN terrified her.
"No khushi….this cant be… Arnav is your best friend… how can he?"
Khushi tried to convince herself. Her mind was ready to accept whatever she said but her heart refused to take it that Arnav was JUST A FRIEND.

Anjali placed the pan on the stove as she made her preparations to make soup for Khushi. She could still see how her brother had panicked when Khushi had fainted. She was forced to think of someone in this very moment even when she tried not to…

"Jeeju!!!" Arnav cried out as a man came running towards the kitchen.
"Kya hua Arnav-"and before he could complete he saw a fainted Anjali lying on the floor.
"OH MY GOD!!! ANJALI!!!" he rushed to her and knelt down beside her.
"Jeeju… I don't know what happened… lets take her upstairs…"
Without even answering, the man picked up Anjali in his arms and started to make his way upstairs. He laid her on their bed and sat beside her.
The doctor came a little later and told that she had skipped her meal and that was why she had fainted.
Anjali slowly opened her eyes to see him sitting beside her holding her hand tightly. She smiled feebly at him.
"K-Kunal…."
"Shut-up Anjali… why the hell cant u take care of yourselves? Is it so difficult? And what do you want to prove by skipping your meals? For God's sake Anjali!!!! What if something happened to you?"
Anjali simply stared at her man. Oh,how she loved him when she scolded her. Kunal, Kunal Sanghvi. Her husband. Tall, fair and handsome. His black shining eyes were the sole thing that made her lose herself. She looked at him and smiled.
" I was not skipping my meals,its just that I had a conference to attend……and I know you wont let anything happen to me….…." She said as she brought their entwined hands to her lips and kissed it softly.
"Stop acting childish Anji…. A conference is not important than ur life!!!"
"I am sorry…." Anjali said sheepishly.
"I love you Anjali Sanghvi….. NEVER EVER do this again…. U get that?"
"Yes Mr. Sanghvi….. I love you too…

A smile crept on her lips as a lone tear escaped her eyes. Those were the best days of her life. She had HIM by her side. But She could see no one by her side now. She barely knew where he was. While the people around her said that he was dead, and some claimed her to be a divorcee, she still waited for him to come back…. or so was her belief.
"I know you will come back Kunal…. You cant let anything happen to me…" she said.
Arnav entered the kitchen as he heard his sister speak. He had always felt helpless for his sister.
"Di…. Stop this… you know he is-" and before Arnav could complete Anjali handed him the tray.
"Take this and feed Khushi…. And as for me… U cant shake my faith Chote…. I know I sound crazy….but I know he'll come back. I know he's somewhere out there. Its just that he's lost. But he'll come back. he can never leave his Anjali….. excuse me Bhai…. I have a call to make…."
Arnav saw the retreating form of his sister. A woman of determination and an unshakable faith she was. Though she never showed her pain to him, he was well aware of it. She had sustained herself from braking down and had been strong. This could be seen by the the very way she handled the business even when she was in a state as such. When everyone had claimed Kunal Sanghvi to be dead while the others said he was gone, his sister had stood her stance and claimed that her Kunal would come back… she had been sure of his being alive…. Every single proof claimed it against her stance. But she still refused to see what stood in front of her.
"I hope he comes back Di… I hope I could bring him back……."
That was all Arnav could do…. Silently pray for his sister's happiness and her chirpy self to come back.

Love at the end of the day was a crappy thing in the Raizada Mansion. That was how Arnav had put it over all these years. And that was true. Raizada Mansion had only seen glimpses of love…. Never its complete form. Neither him, his Di nor His brother. Love had always made itself scarce at his home…..
Arnav entered the room to find a sleeping Khushi on his bed. She was sleeping, perhaps after somany days. She was feeble. Her weak form told him. His heart clenched, he still blamed himself for her situation. He made his way to the bed with the soup tray in his hand. He sat beside her and looked at her once again. Life was slow, and so was his life. He didn't know why that thought crapped up in his mind but it just came up. He saw Khushi stirring in her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes to see Arnav staring at her. His stare pierced through her. She could feel the difference. She was feenly unaware that her fears were about to turn true.
He saw her opening her eyes.
"Khushi? Tum theek ho?( Are u fine?)"
Khushi stared at him for a second and nodded her head in a positive. He signaled towards the bowl of soup that lay beside her and she once again nodded her head and tried to sit up. Arnav immediately ran to her side and helped her sit up. One hand holding her hand while his other hand supported her waist. Khushi was feeling a bit awkward with this sudden proximity after whatever had happened in the morning.
Arnav took the bowl in his hand and started feeding her. She silently obeyed him and drank the soup. There was a soothing silence between them. She was liking it, for she knew that talks would complicate things.
"I am sorry Khushi…." Arnav broke the silence.
Khushi looked up at him in bewilderment. She had seen Arnav behaving strange but she could not understand the cause for his apology. She looked at him enquiringly.
" Sorry for what Arnav…."
"I should have taken care of u. I should have checked on you. I am responsible for all this. I am sorry Khushi….."
Khushi looked at him. She could see the guilt in his eyes. This man in front of her was confusing her. She had never seen Arnav like this.
"Its alright Arnav….. I should have taken care of myself. I was so lost in my pain that I so wished to die… perhaps my prayers were being answered…" Khushi said as she looked away to the other side. Arnav saw a lone tear escaping her eyes.
"Don't ever say that again Khushi….. you are going nowhere…."
"Arnav…."
And before Khushi could complete her words, Arnav pulled her into a hug. Khushi was taken aback by this sudden jesture. His hold was tight yet protective. He held her rough yet it didn't hurt her. She could him sobbing silently on his shoulder. She wanted to hug him back. She rose her hands and hugged him back with one hand caressing his head.
The minute Arnav felt her caressing his hair, Arnav started blurting out everything.
" Never say that again Khushi…Please, I-I-I cant afford to lose you Khushi…. Please…promise me you'll never say that again….." Arnav said as he held on to her even more tightly.
Khushi concealed herself. She didn't want to break down in front of him. She had to console him.
"Sshh….Sshh Arnav… I promise…. But I cant stay with you forever, can I?" Khushi said as she felt Arnav breaking the hug as soon as he heard her words. He cupped her face and looked at her. Khushi could see pain in his eyes. The pain and fear of losing her.'s breath was hitching because of this close proximity. She was not able to define the feeling she was presently feeling.
"You'll be with me forever Khushi….. Forever…. I love you so much, I cant let you go…."
"I love you too Arnav, but you cant change whats destined…." Khushi said.
When Arnav heard her say the words to him, he knew what she meant. He kissed her forehead protectively and hugged her once again.
This time Khushi hugged him back. and she very well knew what Arnav meant by those words. Her fears were coming true. But what amused her more was what she had replied him. She had to let Someone take HIS place…. She thought.
But was it right on her part to let go of Akash so easily? This was one such question she found it difficult to find an answer to.
Perhaps… he wants me to move on…..
Khushi thought as she looked at the photograph of Arnav and Akash that was placed on Arnav's side-table.
