Thanks for your wishes on the new thread! Translation for Part 40
Arnav: Di must b wondering if something happened to Chhotey while he was working out!
Khushi(smacks his chest): Shubh-shubh boliye! (means say good things,dont say anything bad)
Before she could withdraw her hand from his chest Arnav grabs it and twirls her around.
Khushi(shocked): Arnavji!
He presses his form to her back & whispers huskily in her left ear: Shubh-shubh!
Then he nibbles her earlobe.
Khushi: Arrrnavvjjjiii, leaavvve meee!
Arnav: U're.
He turns his face to the other side & sneezes loudly.
Khushi: So, u did catch a cold! Now,r u happy? Keep doing whatever u want!
Arnav: Khushi...
Khushi: Leave me!
Arnav (releases her hand): I'm leaving u.. Dont scold me!
Khushi: I'll scold u not once but 100 times! (ruffles his hair) Dry ur hair & wear some clothes ,mister!
Arnav(salutes): Yes ma'm!
Khushi(glares): U want to hav fun,right?
Arnav(shakes his head): Not fun!(inches his face closer) I'm in the mood for romance!
Khushi lowers her gaze when his molten brown eyes gaze lustfully at her.
Arnav pecks her lips lightly.
Khushi: U.. need.. to..put.. on.. ur.. clothes.
Arnav(places his finger on her lips) : Ssshhh!
Khushi tightly squeezes her eyes shut.
Arnav tucks the loose tendril of hair behind her ear & is about to kiss her eyelids when he sneezes again.
Arnav: Excuse me!
Khushi opens her eyes & pushes him away.
Khushi: Now,get ready! And lemme do the same..
She goes to the cupboard and takes out a pink colored anarkali dress for herself.
Khushi: I guess I should wear this one!
Arnav(approaches her): Dont wear this dress!
Khushi(without looking at him): Y not?
Arnav holds her arm & makes her turn towards himself.
Arnav: U remember when u'd worn this dress?
Khushi: Ya! Last month,when naniji's friend had called us for Satyanarayan Bhagwan's kathaa.
Arnav: Not that! U'd worn this dress.. on the day I got kidnapped.. Remember?U'd come to the airport.. to talk to me..?
Khushi somberly nods.
Arnav: Whenever I see this dress,I'm.. reminded of that day.U tried to stop me so many times,but I never listened to u. And I..
Khushi(interrupts): Enough! Dont recall those things! I wont wear this dress..
She is about to keep the dress back inside the cupboard when Arnav holds her hand.
Arnav: Khushi,I'm sorry! How I wish I'd believed u that day!
Khushi(cups his face): Arnavji,I told u naa,dont recall the events of that day! Forget about it! And y r u saying sorry now?
Arnav: I behaved very rudely with u &.. (hugs her)I'm sorry!
Khushi(hugs him back): Its okay! U never knew the truth back then..
Arnav: U wanted to reveal that very truth.But I.. I never listened to u! U called me so many times! U tried so hard to stop me from going! I also wanted to wait! But.. niether did I listen to u nor to myself.. I just.. went inside.. And..
Khushi closes her eyes & the memories of that day flash infront of her eyes.
She blinks back her tears & runs a hand through his hair.
Khushi: Bas.. dont say anything else! Just forget it!
Arnav breaks the hug.
Khushi(wipes his tears): Y did u even touch this topic? Now's the time for u to get ready.Dont u want to go Office?
Arnav nods.
Khushi: Go.. take out the suit u'd b wearing today.
Khushi keeps the dress inside the cupboard & takes out another dress, beige & pink anarkali.
Arnav: Khushi,how will I go to office if u wear this dress?
Khushi: Y?What's wrong with this one?
Arnav kisses her cheek before answering.
Arnav: U'd worn this dress when I'd..
Khushi(blushes): ya,ya,I know! Anyways.. (looks at the dress)this wont work for me!Let me take out some other dress!
She takes out a black & red anarkali from the cupboard & shows it to Arnav.
Khushi: Now,is this okay?
Arnav: Ya,it is.But y r u choosing all the fullsleeves dresses today?
Khushi: I'll hav to wear a fullsleeves kurta naa?
Arnav(confused): Y?
Khushi: To hide these..
She points to the numerous love bites on her neck,shoulders & arms.
Arnav feels guilty after looking at the red marks covering her creamy skin.
Arnav(rubs a hickey): Does it hurt?
Khushi: No. But if u touch it,it'll hurt.
Arnav places a soft,lingering kiss on the hickey.
Arnav: Get some ice after breakfast.I'll apply it..
Khushi: No need to do all that! It'll b gone after 2-3 days on its own. And anyways,this isnt the first time that I've got these!
That statement and the way she casually says it pierces Arnav's heart with the result that it increases his guilt 10 times more.
Arnav: Sorry!
Khushi: Arnavji!!
Arnav: I trouble u a lot,isnt it?
Khushi (makes a sorry face): What should I say? U do trouble me a lot! U never listen to me! (makes an even more sorry face)U irritate me! Sometimes I wish..
Arnav: What?Tell me..
Since Arnav was on a guilt trip,his shaatir dimaag could not make out that his wife was in a playful mood. Thus Sanka devi continued to be the drama queen..
Khushi(sighs): Leave it! Dont force me to open my mouth! U wont b able to tolerate the truth! I... u're.. (shakes her head) I dont want to say anything else!
Arnav: Khushi,tell me naa.. What's the problem? If there r some issues.. we both can resolve them together!
Khushi: There's no use of saying anything to u Arnavji! When do u ever listen to me?
Arnav: Of course I listen to u! I will listen this time!.. Just tell me.. what is the problem?
Khushi: Woh..
Khushi could not control her laughter anymore & burst out laughing.
Arnav(shocked): Khushi!?!
Khushi: I'm so sorry!(giggles)But.. I totally enjoyed it! Lard governer got fooled! And that too by me!(beams) Wow!
Arnav pins her to the cupboard and puts his hands on either sides of her, blocking her escape routes.
Khushi: Arrnavjji.. u're..
Arnav: U enjoyed it a lot,right?
Khushi(looks at the poolside window): Lakshmiji!?!
Arnav turns towards the poolside in anger.
Khushi pushes him with all her might & escapes.
Arnav: Khushi!
Khushi runs towards the bathroom while Arnav follows her.
Khushi opens the bathroom door steps inside & is about to slip when Arnav catches her.
Arnav: Careful!
Khushi: Hey Devi Maiyya!
Arnav scoops her in his arms.
Khushi: Arnavji,what r u doing? Leave me!
Arnav: I'll leave u,just u wait!
He takes her to the bed & places her in the centre of it.
Khushi: Arnavji,u're not..
Arnav: U had ur fun right? Now its time u get ur punishment!
He is about to lie on top of her when he sneezes,twice.
Khushi(tries to get up): U'll get a fever!
Arnav(pulls the duvet): I dont care!
Khushi: I'm.. hungry!
Arnav: All this while u never remembered that!
Khushi: Areh!! Arnavji.. listen na..!
Arnav(clicks his tongue): I never listen to u.Right? (lies on top of her) Now u'll see how I like to trouble u!
Khushi opens her mouth to say Lard governer when Arnav claims her lips.

Later at the dining table..
Arnav sneezes thrice continuously.
Anjali: How did u catch a cold so suddenly,Chhotey?U were absolutely alright this morning!
Arnav: Relax di.. I'll b fine once I take the Medicine.
Anjali: Ok.Dont forget to take it. And.. once u're done,take Khushiji's breakfast to ur room.
Arnav nods.
______________________________________________________________
When Arnav enters the bedroom,he's surprised to find Khushi pulling the matress.
Arnav: What r u doing,Khushi?
Khushi: I was drying the matress..
Arnav: U can do all that later.Hav ur breakfast first.
Khushi: I better finish this now. I just need to get a fresh bedsheet.. and my job will b over. Suppose someone comes inside & sees the wet matress,what will he/she think?
Arnav: Khushi,hav ur breakfast first.. Werent u very hungry?
Khushi walks upto him.
Khushi: Now u remember that I am very hungry?
Arnav: Sorry! I just..
Khushi: Nice! First u do what u want to & then u keep chanting sorry,sorry!
Arnav: Khushi,I did that coz u..
Khushi(interrupts): Coz I said I fooled u.Right?
Arnav: U know I dont like all that!
Khushi: I never say that when u make fun of me! I'm ur wife! Cant I play mischief with u? Just bcoz of that u.. (sighs)Anyways..Lets not talk about it!
She takes the tray of food from his hands.
Khushi: Thanks for bringing my breakfast over here!
She keeps it on the table and goes back to tidying up the bed.
Arnav: Khushi,dont talk to me like that! I never told u to stay back in the room! It was ur idea!It wont look proper if we go together.. What will di think?etc. etc. u said all that!
Khushi: Ya,ya! I am at fault every single time,am I not?
Arnav: I'm talking about this time..
Khushi: But I'm talkin about everytime!U do this every single time! First u take out all ur frustration on me. And then when u calm down,u come to apologize to me & coax me to forgive u! Do u even realize what u do & say in ur fits of rage?U were angry so u.. did all that again! U were angry hence u went inside the airport without listening to me!Heck! U got married to me coz u were angry!
Arnav: Y r u dragging r marriage in all of this? U know very well that I didnt know the truth back then. And werent u telling me to forget about the airport thing a while back?
Khushi: If u didnt know the truth,on what basis did u take sucha big decision? Y didnt u ask me anything? Y did u drag me to the temple? Y.. did u force jme to sign the contract?
Arnav: Khushi,listen..
Khushi(interrupts): I dont want to listen to anything else! (looks away)U plz leave for office,Arnavji! Else this matter will get stretched!
Arnav: If u had so many problems with me & if my anger troubled u so much,y didnt u say anything on that day?Y r u saying all this right now?
Khushi: I was helpless that day.. (gulps)I had to sign the contract to save my sister's wedding!And u were the one who forced me to do all of this!Remember? U blackmailed me by saying that u wont let jiji get married to jijaji if I dont agree to marry u for 6 months! And now u're..
Paayal(outside the door): Khushi..?
Arnav & Khushi r shocked beyond measure to see Paayal standing outside the door.
Khushi(checks herself): a.. jiji.. come inside!U got tea for me?
Paayal: Ya!
Khushi(takes the tea): Thanks!
Paayal: What were u saying about the contract, Khushi?
Khushi: Woh.. I.. was talking to Arnavji.. Arnavji was telling me about his office's contract..
Paayal: But I heard u say "I had to sign the contract to save my sister's wedding!"... Tell me the truth,what contract is this? And what about the.. 6 month marriage..?
Khushi: Jiji.. woh.. I'm..
Paayal(holds her hand): Come with me! I need to speak to di & dadiji!
Khushi: Jiji..
Arnav: Paayal..
Paayal: I'm sorry,Arnavji! I dont want to listen to anything! I've heard whatever I needed to hear! Come Khushi..
Khushi: Jiji..
She drags Khushi along while Arnav follows them.
