"<font>Just
call her dammit!" arnav said to his reflection as he stood in front
of the mirror. He had hardly slept a wink last night, her mesmerizing
face and tinkling laughter making it 'hard' for him to
sleep...literally! He was just about to press call on Ms Gupta's
number when he heard someone walk in behind him "Pa! You are still
not ready?!!" anaya said in an annoyed voice.</font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Arnav
kept his phone aside and quickly and ran a brush through his hair
"I'm ready baccha..." he said as anaya looked him up and down
"Pa, we are going for kulfi..not for some business dinner...can you
please change into jeans?" she asked him with a teasing smile as
arnav looked on with an amused expression "So my little princess is
big enough to dictate what her pa should wear huh?" he said smiling
as he opened his cupboard and picked out his faded jeans and a white
polo t-shirt.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Hmm..off
course!" she said as arnav winked at her "By the way..why are we
going all the way to Goregaon for kulfi? I mean i can order some for
you here" he said as anaya vehemently shook her head "No! I want
to go to that parsi dairy and eat the mango kulfi there only...my
friend told me its the best!" she said, her eyes pleading him not
to cancel.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>
</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>"Fine..if that's what you want...that's what you'll
get...though i don' think its wise to eat kulfi in this weather"
arnav said as he looked out the window and noticed a steady drizzle
"Anyways..i'll be down in a minute..why don't you wait for me in
the foyer?" arnav said as anaya nodded happily and left, leaving
him to get ready...the phone call to Ms Gupta forgotten..for now.</font></font>

...

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Shilpa
di! Can't i go later and pick it up? I mean...it might rain real
heavy now.." khushi moaned as shilpa gave her the dry-cleaners bill
"Khushi..its not going to rain heavily..its a slight drizzle...and
you need to get the clothes now, tomorrow is monday and the shop is
closed" shilpa admonished her as khushi sulked away</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>
'Great! She has to go out in this mad weather on a sunday when she
could have just lazed about made some maggie noodles and dreamt about
chocolate caramel eyes...' what!..oh god..why does his face grace
everything dam thing she thinks about.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Earlier
when she was making tea, she saw his eyes boring into hers from the
boiling water...then when she went for a shower, she saw his face in
shower head...later when she was applying lip balm, she wondered if
it was his lips instead of the balm stick she was generously
applying...she slapped her head to come out of this self-induced
arnavism...yes that's what it was! Bloody freddy...she was seeing him
everywhere! She picked up the bill lying on the table and made her
way out hoping it won't rain..</font></font>

...

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Dammit!"
Arnav swore as anaya walked slowly behind him "Pa...you should not
swear!..its bad manners!" she said as arnav looked at her "Sorry
anu...but out car's gone!..i think i parked it in a no-parking zone"
he said exasperated at the predicament he was in. Since it was sunday
today, Mohan his driver was on leave..he saw the white chalked words
written where his car was parked 'GTC'.. 'Goregaon Traffic chowk' he
thought as he took out his phone to call aman, he could send them the
company car; This place was too quiet and deserted to find a taxi or
rickshaw. Mohan could go and pick up the car tomorrow.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>
"Shit!"
he said as he got another of those disapproving looks from anaya
"Sorry baby, but my phone's battery's conked off..but how is that
possible? I charge it to full last night!" he said as he ran a
frustrating hand through his hair, he turned back towards the kulfi
shop, they had just come from to find the owner shutting down the
shop "Uh..excuse me, can i make an urgent phone call?" he asked
as the owner looked at him with an apologetic smile "Sorry, but i
don't have my phone on me...you can walk to the next lane..some shops
might still be open...you can call from there" he said as arnav
turned around to see anaya shivering due to the light drizzle.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Baccha...
are you ok? Are you feeling cold?" he asked her as she nodded her
head </font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>'I
can't make her walk to the other lane..she'll feel more cold...'</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>
he looked around trying to find someone, anyone who's phone he could
borrow but no one seemed to be around..</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>'obviously!
Its a sunday and at 8pm...everyone was probably at their home
relaxing</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>'...he
considered going to the neighboring building and knocking on
someone's door to ask for a phone call when his senses were once
again on red alert..</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>'why
did he fell she was near him?</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>'
he thought as he saw anaya</font></font>jump
to her feet and shout 'Ms Gupta!!!'

...

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>'What
the!' Khushi thought as she saw arnav and anaya standing right below
her building...'was she dreaming about him again...but this time
it seemed more real..plus anaya was waving her hands at her' she
smiled as she reached anaya, who skipped the last few steps and
hugged her "Ms Gupta!! wow..what a surprise! Do you live here?"
anaya asked her to which khushi simply nodded, words seemed to have
left her tongue as she took in the delicious sight of arnav in faded
jeans and white t-shirt..'Va va vroom'!</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Uh..yes,
I stay here...in this building..but what are you doing here?"
khushi asked getting back to the present..as arnav shifted unsteadily
and cleared his throat, he wondered at the height of coincidence
"Anaya...she wanted to eat kulfi here...so we came. But my car got
picked up by the traffic police...wrong side parking" he said as he
pointed towards the other side of the road, khushi looked at him as
his lips moved, but her mind was elsewhere.</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>.'arnav
was in front of her..in the flesh...in front of her building..'</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Oh
pa..didn't you say you wanted to call for the car? We can call from
Ms Gupta's house!" she said enthusiastically as if all the puzzle
pieces had finally fit together. Arnav looked at Khushi uncertainly
wondering what was going through her mind, but she seemed to be fine
with it "Off course..please come up..its freezing down here
anyways..you can call from my phone" she said looking everywhere
but at him.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Anaya
squealed with delight as she held khushi's hand and pulled her father
along the small lift "So, which floor do you live on ms Gupta? And
does shilpa aunty stay here too?" she</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>asked as arnav closed the
rickety lift door "Yes, we both live on 5</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a">^{<font>th</font>}</font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>
floor.." she said as she smiled at anaya. The child's exuberance
was so drugging that khushi could not help feel her happiness seep
into her.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>They
got out on the fifth floor as khushi struggled with the dry-cleaning
bag and her keys "Here..let me help you with that" arnav offered
as he took the bag from her hands, his fingers slightly brushing
against hers, making a soft gasp escape from her mouth at the sudden
feeling of warmth. He looked at her intently as she quickly looked
away and inserted the key to open her door.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>They
stepped into the cosy house as khushi switched on the lights "Make
yourself comfortable.." she said as she went to unplug her phone
from the charger, she turned back towards arnav who had kept the bag
on the small sofa and was now observing her house "Its, not much..i
mean..it's really small compared to.."she started saying to which
arnav cut her "Its home...doesn't matter about the size...its the
feeling you get when you step into it...plus my home with my parents
was probably 1/4</font></font><font color="#1a1a1a">^{<font>th</font>}</font><font color="#1a1a1a"><font>
the size of this flat...but the satisfaction i felt there cannot be
compared to the mansion we stay in now" he said as his gaze swept
over the various kick-knacks khushi had collected over the years.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Khushi
felt her heart flip at the admiration in his voice...she felt warmth
suffuse her body at his words...he was right, size really did not
matter...and she had worked very hard for this house...she looked
around and wondered what he thought about her whacky home...with the
bright colors of orange and yellow curtains to the rustic wooden
flooring with soft colorful rugs and her off white sofa with cushions
of same color as the curtains.. "I love the colors!" anaya said
as she made herself comfortable on the sofa "I wish we had more
colors in our house" she said as arnav smiled at her "Indeed"
he said as khushi turned away from him</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Anaya...would
you like something to drink?" she asked her as arnav got busy with
calling aman "No..i'm ok...but i am starving!" she said as khushi
looked on concerned "Oh...off course dear, what would you like to
eat?" khushi asked her as she went to pour two glasses of water
from the attached kitchenette "hmm..i want pasta!" anaya said
loudly to which arnav looked at her from his phone call
"Anaya..behave...you can't order around in Ms Gupta's house" he
said as he finished his call.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Oh,
its no bother...plus i make a mean pasta..or thats what shilpa di
thinks!" khushi said as she started removing pots and pans "Thanks
Khu..i mean Ms Gupta...but i think it only fair we help you with
it...my manager is sending the car for us but it will take some
time...i guess anaya is hungry..so" arnav said slightly embarrassed
to which khushi quickly replied "Please Mr raizada...its the least
i can do after you let me stay over that night" she said as she
started peeling an onion only to remember that night...her cheeks
flushed severely making arnav smirk.</font></font>

...

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Half
an hour later, after arnav and anaya helped khushi prepare the pasta,
the table was laid down with both a red and white pasta..apparently
anaya liked white sauce while arnav preferred red..khushi smiled as
both father and daughter dug into their meal while khushi poured
orange juice for them "Yummm this is the best pasta i've ever had
Ms Gupta! Its better than maggie's!" anaya said between bites,
arnav too nodded in appreciation "Hmm..this is amazing khushi..you
should have some as well" arnav said as he served some for her.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Khushi
sat down and fondly looked at the duo throughly enjoying something
she cooked...'how wonderful it would be, to be part of a family..'
she thought as the absurdity of her thoughts hit her. She shook her
head as she ate the pasta along with them amongst funny and mad
conversation, mostly led by anaya, but even though the pasta was
great, all khushi could think was the depth of her attraction towards
arnav...she just could not help it anymore..his presence made her
brain turn to mush and her body into jelly...she needed help.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>I'm
feeling so sleepy..is the driver here yet?" anaya yawned as she
snuggled close to khushi on the sofa a while later, her head falling
dangerously close to her lap. Khushi looked down and saw anaya's
drooping head; she didn't know why but she felt like caressing her
soft hair and putting her to sleep "Uh..it might take some time
baby...aman's phone is coming unreachable" he said as khushi let
her fingers go through anaya's hair.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Why
don't you sleep for sometime huh?" she asked anaya who yawned in
response, her eyes droopy with sleep. She gestured arnav to pick her
up and bring her into the bedroom. Arnav took a deep breath and
gently picked up anaya and followed khushi into her bedroom. His eyes
adjusted to the soft light coming from the bedside table lamp of the
large bed. He noticed the cosy feel of her bedroom and wondered how
it would feel to be on her bed..with her..</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>You
can put her there" khushi said softly, bringing arnav out of his
gutter thoughts. He nodded as he laid anaya down on the flowery satin
quilt while khushi brought a soft blanket to throw over her. They
both adjusted her properly on the bed before leaning away from the
bed "Uh...I can sit with her here..." arnav said as khushi
wondered what to say, she really had no idea how she would react with
just him and her...all alone, but she did not want to be a wuss and
act all weird in front of him</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>Uh,
i think she'll be fine...i'll keep the door open...why don't you..i
mean...would you like some coffee?" she asked him breathlessly as
arnav nodded in agreement "Yeah..that would be great...plus the
driver might be coming in any minute" he said trying to assure
himself more, so that he could control himself. He watched as khushi
quickly moved out of the bedroom and towards the kitchenette</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a">"<font>You
really have an amazing collection of Sufi albums...and old hindi
classics" arnav said as he went though the cd collection, khushi
looked up from heating the milk to see him observing the painting on
the wall "Yes..i love sufi and old hindi songs...and before you
ask, no, those are not made by me...they are made by my friends from
the orphanage..we all learnt to paint and draw as part of the
program" she said as arnav felt more respect for her growing in his
chest.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Khushi
was just about to pour the hot milk into the mugs when the heat from
the vessel scorched her skin, she let out a small yelp and was about
to go to the sink when she felt warm hands hold her hand, arnav was
standing behind her, his arms encircling her as he led her slowly
towards the sink...he opened the tap and held her hand under the cool
gush of water "You should be careful khushi" he whispered as
khushi's senses went into overboard...the burn on her hand
forgotten...she started feeling a burning sensation at other places
on her body.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Arnav
felt his breath catch as he felt khushi tremble in his arms...he was
still holding her hand in the sink while her back was pressed in to
his front. He slowly brought the burnt hand to his mouth before
blowing softly on it..he could feel khushi's body tensing up and was
about to let go when she relaxed against him. He took that as
encouragement and pressed a small kiss on the burn, his other hand
holding her gently by her waist with her hand rested on his.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Khushi
let out a small gasp as she felt his warm lips on her hand, she had
already given into her feelings when she felt his hard body against
hers..she closed her eyes as arnav kissed her hand again...but this
time he pressed an open mouthed kiss..his lips slowly trailing her
hand as he reached her fingers...he slowly took in her forefinger in
his mouth and sucked on it while she let out small moan of desire at
this torture...</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Her
fingers tasted of coffee..arnav thought as he kept sucking on them
wjile his other hand caressed her soft belly over her thin
t-shirt...he gripped her more closely as his finger dipped into her
belly button making her moan out his name "Arrnav..." khushi
moaned as she felt heat pool between her legs...they had not even
kissed, but his ministrations were creating havoc on her senses.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Arnav
slowly let go of her finger, as his mouth dropped to the gorgeous
curve of her neck; he pressed small kisses and nips on her delicate
skin as khushi writhed in pleasure...her breathing uneven...he loved
hearing her moans as his hand crept under her t-shirt and touched the
silky skin of her belly...the feel of his rough hands against her
naked skin felt like fire to khushi. She quickly turned around and
met his aroused eyes...her own dark with passion "Arnav...i don't
think.." she said as arnav placed his finger on her plump lips
"Shh.." he said as he pulled her closer to him, her breasts
crushing under his hard chest.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>She
closed her eyes and gave into the sensation she was feeling for the
first time as both his hands went under her t-shirt...he grabbed her
waist tightly as khushi's hands crept over his toned chest to lock
over his neck, he pushed her gently towards the fridge as his mouth
descended hungrily on her luscious mouth..khushi hardly had time to
recover from his assault on her body as his lips crashed over
hers...she moaned loudly as his lips pulled her bottom lip into his
mouth, he sucked on it expertly as khushi whimpered in unrestrained
passion..she opened her mouth inviting his tongue, which he gladly
thrust in before exploring her sweet mouth,</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Arnav
was momentarily shocked to find such responsiveness from khushi...but
as he deepend the kiss, she pulled him closer and kissed him back
with equal if not more fervor...he groaned in need as her hands went
underneath his t-shirt, her hands exploring his muscled chest and
rock-hard abs...her nails grazed over his nipples as arnav felt a
shudder run through him 'god..he wanted her so badly' he
pulled off her t-shirt swiftly before leaving her swollen lips to
trail kisses along her collarbone leading towards her cleavage.
Khushi held his head tightly; her fingers gripping his hair..making
it quite clear what she needed.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>He
ran his fingers around the edge of her bra as she bit her lips trying
to keep her moans from escaping...he let his hands cup her satin
covered breasts and pressed them hard, his fingers then started
pinching her taut peaks as they hardened under his touch. Khushi
thrashed under him as he rubbed his hardness along her pelvis, she
held onto him tightly as he pulled down her bra to taste her
straining nubs... "I want you soo bad khushi.." he groaned as
khushi arched up to meet his hot mouth..he was just about to open her
hook when the loud doorbell got them back to their senses.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Khushi
looked on with shocked eyes at the state they were in, her t-shirt
was lying on the floor with her bra pulled down to her nipples, wet
from arnav's kisses..arnav's t-shirt was riding up on his chest while
his hair was sticking out at odd angles..arnav stared at her blushing
form as she quickly pulled her bra up, he helped her wear her
t-shirt.His own body was ringing with need while hers seemed to be
shivering with the aftermath of what just happened...khushi quickly
redid her ponytail and looked on as arnav pulled his t-shirt down and
ran a shaky hand through his hair. </font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Arnav
went in to get anaya while khushi went directly to the door and
opened it. She found a pleasant looking be-spectacled man standing
nervously.. "Uh..hi. I'm aman..is arnav sir here?" he asked to
which khushi nodded..she smiled at the man and led him in as arnav
walked out carrying a sleeping anaya on his shoulders "Aman..what
are you doing here?" he asked in an irritated voice as aman
explained how the driver could not make it and he himself came to
pick them up.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Arnav's
anger at finding aman and interrupting his and khushi...ahem...was
diffused as he felt gratitude towards his manager..he had left his
sunday evening to come and pick them up. He smiled at aman who nearly
pinched himself to see his boss smiling at him. Arnav then turned
towards khushi and cleared his throat "Uh...Thanks
khushi...I...I...I mean...thanks for the help...and...dinner...uh..."
he tried to find words as anaya's sleepy voice broke in "Pa..are we
home yet?" </font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Khushi
smiled at anaya as she went slowly towards arnav's back and kissed
her on the cheek...in the process brushing her lips on arnav's ears
without anyone noticing "No sweety...your'e going home now...sweet
dreams.." she said, moving away as anaya went back to sleep while
arnav looked on stunned, his ears burning from that contact "Good
night Mr Raizada" she said as he gulped before saying a quick
goodbye...aman held the door for them before he nodded at khushi and
closed it.</font></font>

<font color="#1a1a1a"><font>Khushi
leaned against the door as soon as it closed, She took a deep breath
and closed her eyes with a satisfied sigh, a slight blush marring her glowing cheeks...'God...she wanted more!'</font></font>
