Its nearly midnight here and I've got college tomorrow. So without further ado here's the next chapter to this story. Please enjoy. Chapter 5
"I'm sorry to interrupt you but who the hell are you to question my brother like this?" Anjali voiced her opinion.
"I'M ADITYA SINGHANIA. CEO OF SINGHANIA CORPORATIONS, 10th RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD ACCORDING TO FORBES. BROTHER OF KHUSHI SINGHANIA AND UNCLE OF ARJUN SINGHANIA. AND I WILL DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT BOTH OF THEM. DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT?" He shouted.
"Don't shout at my Di." Arnav said suppressing his anger.
"Di???" Adi smirked. "So what if I were to slap your Di. Tell me,how would you feel?"
"Don't go there." The tone of his voice lowered yet his eyes burned with furious rage.
"Why? Just the thought of it painful, right? How do you think I feel when I saw my sister for the first in years and she told me what happened? She told me about me about your extra marital flings. She told me about your illegitimate child."
"He wasn't my son." Arnav said curtly.
"And that makes it ok for your office flings?"
The family gasped but Arnav stayed silent not knowing how to answer him.
"It's been over 7 years since Khushi left and when you saw her the second time you slapped. What kind of morals did your mother give you?"
Arnav's eyes burnt with rage.
"Don't talk about my mother like that."
"Why? I suppose it the bitter truth. If your mother gave you some manners and morals then you wouldn't be this monster and lash out at women. How do you think Arjun's going to feel. Arjun come here please,beta."
Arjun walked to his uncle.
"Yes Adi Mamu?" Arjun question.
Arjun and Khushi weren't afraid of Adi, they both knew Adi would shout at the world but never raise his voice at them.
"You've always wondered who your father is. Would you like to meet your father?"
Arjun just nodded with a smile. Arnav's face turned pale. The family glanced at each other wondering what was going on.
"This man here is your father. Arnav. Singh. Raizada."
Everyone had their mouth opened in shock except Khushi, Arnav and Adi. Arjun moved closer to his uncle.
"Mamu, this is one of your jokes right? Mamu, please tell me your joking," he said with tears in his eyes.
Arjun walked over to his mum.
"Mama, tell Mamu to stop. That man hit you he can't be my father, right?"
Khushi was frozen, the only thing that moved were her tears down her face.
"Mama, please don't cry."
Arjun walked to Adi, tugging his sleeve.
"Champ, he's your father."
"But he hurt my mama. I don't like him. Please let's go from here."
"You can't take my son away from me. I will get his custody."
"Says the man who anger has ruled over his life. And I will NOT see my sister in pain again just because of you." Adi retorted.
Arjun stepped forward his eyes blazing just like his uncles.
"And I DON'T WANT TO BE IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE MAN WHO HURTS MY MAMA. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?"
"Beta-" Arnav said moving toward him.
"I SAID DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
His voice was laced with authority when he spoke, leaving Arnav shocked and speechless.
"Mama never said anything about you. When I would ask her she would distract me and I obviously thought that there was something wrong. Now I get it. You hurt her and she tried to protect me. And you think money would lead you towards me. If you thought that your wrong because nothing can separate me from my mother."
"Dekho, beta. Your father may have made a mistake but you should forgive him. We are your family too." Anjali said.
"Listen aunty I don't wish to disrespect you and I've only called you aunty out of the respect and manners my mother and uncle have taught me. But I do not have a father nor do I have any paternal family. My father was dead to me the day I was born and I have never questioned my mother's decisions and nor will I start doing so now. And I honest dread to think how you treated my mother when Mamu and I were not around but Mama has got both of us now and no harm will come to her."
He walked towards Khushi and Adi.
"These two people are my only family. I may be young but I am classed as intelligent. I can make my own decisions but this is the first decision that I have taken without consulting mama." He turned to face khushi. "And mama, I apologize but I am not stepping back from this decision."
He moved towards the Raizada's and spoke.
"Please forgive me if I have hurt you but I am not willing to change my decision."
With that he turned and walked out of the front door.
Adi moved towards Arnav.
"Do not even think about contacting Arjun or Khushi. Or else I will ruin you, and this precious empire of yours will cease to exist."
He faced toward Payal.
"You wanted to call me your brother, right? A true sister would never have done what you did today. Today you have no sister called Khushi. Khushi loves Shashi uncle and I will never stop her from meeting him. But I will not hesitate hurt someone if any of you come in contact with her. And you ought to take my advice when I say that."
With that he walked to Khushi and they both exited the house.
After departure of Khushi, Adi & Arjun
Raizada Mansion,
Delhi, India
"Chotte what was that man talking about?"
"Di, I kissed an employee, I don't know what I was thinking. That's all that happened. It was my fault though I should've told Khushi but when I came home that evening she wouldn't talk to me."
Arnav paused for a moment.
"Di remember how Papa hurt Mumma. I did the same thing to Khushi and now my son hates me just like I hated him. I've become just like him."
"Chotte your nothing like him."
"Yes arnav bitwa you are the best nephew in the world." Mami said with her broken English.
He ignored their comments and turned to Payal.
"I'm sorry Payal because of me you lost your contact with your sister. I'm really sorry."
"It's ok." She said trying her best to smile yet failing miserably.
Everyone had fallen silent.
"Nani don't you think our Arjun was exactly like our chotte. You know, he was commanding everyone and his voice was filled with the exact same anger and authority." She said with a smile.
"Your right." Nani said with a faint smile. "Chotte why did you slap Khushi?"
Arnav's jaw locked when he thought back to that moment. The moment he felt he lost his Khushi because of his mistake. That one wrong decision would prevent him from sorting thing out with his family. He just turned 180 degrees and walked up the stairs to his room. His sanctuary. The place where he would find his solace.
Singhania Mansion,
India, Delhi.
Adi, Khushi and Arjun had just walked in.
"Arjun beta are you ok?"
"Mama I'm fine. I just want to go to sleep for a while."
"Of course I'll come with you. I feel like I've got a headache."
"Mama, your fine aren't you?" Asked a worried Arjun.
"I fine Arjun. I'll just take a paracetamol before lying down." She turned to her older brother. "Adi are you ok?"
"I'm fine, Khushi. I'm going to video conference the London office to see how everything is there."
And with that he waked up the stairs and towards his room. Khushi knew her brother was in pain knowing he wasn't able to stop Arnav and she didn't want him to blame himself.
She sighed and made her way up with Arjun.
