Part 7:
Arnav (Caressing her back): I understand Di.. Now Stop crying.. Please.. Let me handle this.. Ok? (He pulled back from the Hug and then looked in Anjali's eyes).. If it was Rubble.. Then I would find him and get him back?? Stop crying.. You trust me right??
Anjali noded a Yes still crying and hugged him back. Khsuhi was only seeing her husband.. What did he just say?? IF Rubble was Alive then he would get him back? AND THEN WHAT?? BREAK THIS MARRIAGE AND SEND HER BACK TO HER LOVE?? WOULD HE BE ABLE TO DO THAT??
****************
Anjali was back to her room and also the rest of the family members.. Not even a day had passed for this family to get some happiness back in their lives after the wedding yesterday and today again everything was falling out of the place.. Khushi was still in the Orange Pink Saree sitting on the bed and thinking something when Arnav entered inside the room. He was talking on the Phone..
Arnav: Yeah Aman.. Do as I said.. I need you to track that number from which Di got the call. I will message you that in 2 minutes.. (PAUSE)... Yes.. And I need you to take this up as a priority.. Take the help of our other sources if you need.. Fine? (PAUSE).. Okay.. Great.. Bye..
Saying that he kept the call and turned to look at Khushi who was still looking at him with tears in her eyes..
Arnav ( Walking to the Closet): How long you still plan to shed those tears Khushi? Get changed.. Its too late..
Khsuhi was surprised.. After everything that happened some time back down, he had nothing to say to her?? He was acting as if everything was so simple for him.. Does his Brother's presence or absence even matter to him?? She got up from the bed and looked at him .. He was busy finding his Night Suit..
Khushi: I guess Rubble was right.. You have no emotions .. No feelings.. How can you act so Numb to all these matters Arnav.. ???
Arnav stopped his work and gulped in anger.. His anger was always at its peak.. And that was easily noticable to the person standing before him. He turned to her and looked in her eyes from a distance..
Arnav: So what do you want me to do Khushi?? ...
There was a long Pause between them. They both looking in each others eyes and finding answers to their questions..
Arnav: I am doing what needs to be done.. Finding my Brother and getting him back home, if ever he is ALIVE is my Responsibilty and you dont have rights to point me on that..
Saying that he took his night suit and walked inside the bathroom to get changed.. Khushi walked to the Poolside and stood there for long.. She wanted the answers to the questions which she could never ask her husband. But she couldnt hide it in herself too. She was suffocating. She was happy seeing him trying to find Rubble but the next instant she was scared to face Rubble when he returns back. What would he tell her? What would she answer to him why she married Arnav? She sat on the Poolside Chair and leaned her head behind remembering the day when she took the decision of getting married to Arnav Singh Raizada..
FLASHBACK STARTS
1 month back
Garima: Khushi till when would you make yourself suffer like this? Do you even realize what we are going through seeing you in so much pain..?
Khushi (Crying on the bed): Mumma Please.. Leave me alone. Please..
GArima walked to the bed and made her turn to face her..
Garima: No Khushi.. You cannot ignore my question this time.. You understand? Now look at me..
Khushi wiped her tears and looked at her mother..
Garima: I know its not been much time after that Accident for you to forget all this so soon. But we want you to start a new life.. We want to see you happy in your life Khushi.. If Rubble is watching you from somewhere.. WOuld he like to see you like this Khushi?? Please understand...
Khushi: Mumma.. I cant think of anyone except Rubble..
Garima: I know Khushi.. But he is no more alive.. And trust me we as your parents always found Arnav Singh Raizada to be the best groom for you..
Khushi: Mumma.. Please.. How many times should I tell you both that I cannot think of Arnav at all. Rubble has always told me about his character.. I just dont like him much..
Garima: But you cannot judge him based on what Rubble said to you.. Come on Khushi..
Khushi: No Mumma.. Just not him.. And I dont wish to get married to anyone after Rubble.. I prefer being Single all my life..
Garima (Frustratingly): Fine.. DO what you want Khushi.. But one day when you will see your parents dying with their wish to see their Daughter getting married unfulfilled, you will come to know what life is.. It is surely much than what you are experiencing now.. I cant force you for anything.. Its your life.. Your wish..
Khushi gulped her tears and sat on the bed again. Garima was about to leave when she herself stopped and turned back to her daughter..
Garima: And one more thing Khushi.. The reason why I proposed Arnav Singh Raizada for you was thinking your benefit only.. You know the Raizada family very well by now.. No one can love you like they do and I am sure they still wish to see you as their Bahu someday.. Think on it.. And take your time..
That night was not easy for Khsuhi.. She had to think from all angles tonight on her mother's advise.. Yes she wanted to be a Raizada Bahu , but Rubble's wife.. Not Arnav's.. Rubble had always told her the Dark Characteristics of his Brother.. Like how he spent nights with his Models outside.. How he was least interested in commitments.. How he never wanted to get married to anyone.. How he hated being in a relationship.. Everything.. No girl would ever want to think of a life as a Wife of such a person. But She thought in the other way too.. If She marries someone else based on her Parent's advise, may be after some years, that person would always wish his wife to submit herself completely to him every night.. And she would have no choice... But marrying Arnav Singh Raizada may not mean the same.. He already knows that she loves his Brother which means even if he marries her, he wont think of nearing her anytime. He would always have his extra Affairs to cover up his Physical need which meant he would not force her for anything unlike any other guy. She knows the Raizada's and she loves them truely.. Only that family can accept her the way she wants to be in that house .. Should she say a YES to her parents for proposing Arnav Singh Raizada to marry her? Would it be too soon? Should she wait for some more time?? She had no idea..
After much much efforts of putting some thoughts in her brain finally in next 5 days she told her parents that she agreed to marry Arnav Singh Raizada as they wished.. Garima and Shashi were happy about her decision and they put the proposal from their end to the Raizada's. Initially the Raizada's were shocked but then they also wished the same.. After Rubble they had a thought of getting Khushi as Arnav's wife , but only if they both wished too and yes it did happen. Arnav thought about this for a Day and the next day he too said a YES for the marriage ..
FLASHBACK ENDS
Khushi had already slept on the chair at the poolside and Arnav was out changing his clothes.. He saw her sleeping out in the cold and he couldnt resist but wait there at the French door and admire her.. She was in deep sleep. She didnt sleep the last night properly and hence she needed this sound sleep tonight.. But this wasnt her place .. SHe was his wife.. She shouldnt be sleeping here.. The Entire room was hers.. The bed was hers.. Then what made her sleep here? Was she afraid he would try getting physical with her? Was she scared of sharing the same bed with him? If so, then she needs to start adjusting from now on.. They were Husband and Wife and they should not sleep seperate.. LAst night was still fine as she wasnt in a state to accept him. He was in no hurry for spending "THAT" night with his Wife.. But sleeping seperate till then looked so illogical. He walked to her and then picked her in his arms slowly.. SHe didnt realise it in her sleep. He walked to the bed and made her sleep at her side.. She was still in the Saree and she had not changed.. He couldnt do much about this currently.. He pulled the quilt on her and then walked to the French doors. He closed the doors, pulled the curtains and then turned to switch off the lights.. He walked to the bed at his side.. He sat at the edge messaging Aman if there was any update on Finding Aarav? He somehow wasnt comfortable sleeping beside her like this.. What would happen when the next day she wakes up and find herself on bed with him? Wont she feel bad? Would she start staying more away from him? Hope not.. He thought all these and then lay on his side of the bed.. He closed his eyes admiring her beauty and then fell asleep.
As a couple this was their first night together when they slept beside each other..
**************
Next Morning..
Khushi felt the beam of Sunlight from the French Doors hit her eyes and she rubbed them and opened them slowly.. SHe looked around the room and remembered where she was.. She was facing the other side of the bed with her back facing him.. She remembered she was outside the room when she dozed off.. So does it mean he got her inside on bed?? She immediately got up from the bed and turned the other side.. She saw him sleeping peacefully straight.. SHe was hell scared seeing her husband sleepung on the same bed as hers. She checked her clothes and was little satisfied for seeing herself fully dressed.. She tried to move from the bed but her saree was little stuck up below his feet and that struggle of hers made him open his eyes and see her.. He saw her trying to take her Saree portion out from below his feet and he held her hand.. She almost jerked a bit understanding he was awake and that touch of his again got the same feelings she had for Rubble .. Why the hell did she feel their touches same? Is it because they were Twins? But that should not matter.. Then Why?? She looked at him and continued struggling to get her sarre out with her other hand as he had caught her one hand in his.. He sat on the bed still now allowing her to pull her saree ..
Arnav: Relax Khushi.. Dont get so much disturbed..
Khushi: Leave my hand Arnav..
Arnav: Why? You are my Wife Khsuhi.. I have all rights to hold your hand.. (He said getting a little impatient by her behaviour)
Khushi: Arnav.. Please..
Arnav was surely more angered seeing her regular protest.. What was the harm in him touching her..? He wasnt asking for anything more now.. Cant he hold her hand atleast if nothing else?? WHy did she ever get married to him if she had so many problems?? He still didnt leave her and nor did he let her pull her saree out..
Arnav: I said Stop struggling Khushi..
She knew his anger but she continued struggling and that irked him more.. He just held her shoulders and pinned her to the bed making sure he is on Top of her.. She was Scared till death.. The fear of being touched by someone she never wished had started haunting her mind now..
