Part 47
Anjali: Jab sab kuch theek ho gaya aur aap dono ne hasi-khushi dobara shaadi kar li,tab toh aap Chhoti ko chitthi k baare me bataa dete. Par aapne tab bhi kyun nahi bataya?
Khushi looks at Arnav,eagerly waiting for the answer.
Arnav: Maine isiliye nahi bataaya kyunki.. main Khushi ko surprise dena chahta tha.
Khushi: Surprise?
Arnav: 1 minute ruko..
He went to their room & came back minutes later with a paper bag.
Arnav: Maine socha tha main.. yeh tumhe humari shaadi ki 1st anniversary par dunga. (hands her paper bag)Par tum abhi dekh lo..
Khushi opens the paperbag to find a silver frame around her mother-in-law's letter.
Khushi(reads): Humare Chhotey ki bahu k naam..
She looks at Arnav who smiles.
Arnav: Maa ka letter,jise maine frame karvaya taaki main tumhe usse humari anniversary par de sakoon.
Anjali: Par.. anniversary par kyun?
Arnav: Khushi bhi maa ko miss karti hai,di. Shaayad utna hi jitna ki main aur aap aur hum sab karte hain.
Khushi(shocked): Humne aapse.. iss baare me kabhi kuch nahi kaha. Phir.. aapko kaise?
Arnav: Maine notice kiya hai,jab bhi koi pooja ya festival k baad humlog badon k pair chhoote hain,tab sabk pair chhoone k baad,tum maa aur.. dad ki photo k saamne jaakar haath jodti thi. Main samajh gaya tha ki tumhe unki kami mehsus hoti hai,especially aise occasions par jahaan poori family saath me celebrate karti hai.
Khushi: Aisa nahi hai ki humein naniji ya mamiji ya di se maa ka pyaar nahi mila. Mila hai. Lekin.. yeh baat sach hai ki hum kayeen baar sochte hain ki maaji hoti toh kitna achchha hota!
She walks upto Arnav & smiles.
Khushi: Aap har baar humare man ki baat jaan jaate hain naa? Chahe hum kuch kahe ya na kahe,aap baat ko bhaap hi lete hain!
Arnav(smiles): Har baar!
They keep gazing at each other for a while,totally oblivious to the surroundings.
Nani clears her throat to gain the lovebirds' attention.
An embarassed Khushi instantly turns her gaze away & sits beside Akash.
Nani: Ab aap aage ki baatwa bataiyye,Chhotey. Aisan kaa karat rahe aap jisse Chhoti bitiya ko ghar aana hi pada?
Arnav: Main buaji k ghar gaya,Khushi ko laane k liye. Maine usse kaha..
*Flashback*
Arnav: Agar tum abhi,is hi waqt,mere saath ghar nahi chali toh tumhari behen Paayal bhi tumhare saath yaheen khadi hogi,hamesha k liye!
Khushi: Aisa kuch nahi hoga! Kyunki Aakash jijaji hamesha humari jiji k saath rahenge!
Arnav: Tum phir galat samajh rahi ho,Khushi! Aakash meri koi baat nahi taalega!
Agar main kahunga toh tumse phone par baat tak nahi karega!"
*Flashback ends*
Arnav: Khushi k man me kahin na kahin dar baith gaya tha.Usne Aakash ko kayeen baar call kiya,lekin woh conference me tha isiliye ussne usk calls nahi liye. Khushi ka dar badhta jaa raha tha. Isiliye woh Aakash se milne AR designs k office pahuchi,jahaan mere guards ne use darwaaze par rok diya..
*Flashback*
Guard: Sorry ma'm!Aap andar nahi ja sakti hain..
Khushi(shocked): Kya?! Kyun?(irritated)Dekhiye,aap zara hatiye! Humara andar jana bahut zaroori hai!
She tries to move past them but they stop her.
Guard: Unhone humein inform kiya tha ki aap aisa hi bahaana banayengi!
Khushi(wonders aloud): Unhone? Kinhone? Aur woh jo bhi hain,unki himmat kaise hui humein..
Guard(interrupts): Arnav Singh Raizada!
Khushi(with hands on her hips): Agar woh Arnav Singh Raizada hain toh aap jaante hain ki (points to herself)hum kaun hain?
Guard: Khushi..
Khushi: Nahi! (proudly)Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada!
She shows them her mangalsutra.
Arnav(comes from behind): Wah!Wah!Wah!
Khushi turns behind,shocked & embarassed.
Arnav: I'm sorry Mrs. Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada,but tumhe andar jana allowed nai hai! In fact,I'm surprised ki inlogon ne tumhe yahaan tak kaise aane diya?
Khushi: Aapko yeh galatfehmi kyun hai ki yeh sirf aapka office hai? Hum yahaan Akashji se milne aaye hain.
She turns around to go when..
Arnav: Stay where u r! Wahaan se hilna bhi mat!
Khushi(turns to look at him): Hum andar jayenge! Humein andar jaane ka poora haq hai!
She turns to go when the guards stop her.
Arnav(smugly): U're wrong,Khushi! Shaayad tum bhool gayi ho par main tumhe yaad dila deta hoon-Tum yeh rishta tod chuki ho! Aur yeh rishte k saath-saath andar jaane ka haq bhi kho chuki ho!
Khushi turns to the opposite side & is about to exit when Arnav calls her.
Arnav: And yes! Tumme itni class bhi nahi hai ki tum andar ja sako!
*Flashback ends*
Arnav looks at Khushi to find her looking at him.
They both smile at the memory of the water fight.
Nani: Aage kaa hua?
Arnav: Kuch nahi.. Humare beechh..
Khushi(interrupts): Behes! Behes ho gayi!
She glares at Arnav.
Arnav: Yup! Behes ho gayi. Main Khushi se baat kar hi raha tha ki Tab hi Aakash wahaan aa gaya aur Khushi usse dekhte hi ussey baat karne chali gayi..
*Flashback*
Akash(shocked): Bhai?Khushiji?
Khushi(elated): Jijaji!!(approaches him)Hum aapse hi milne aaye the!Humein aapse bahut zaroori baat karni hai!
Aakash: Ya.Woh main.. conference me tha isiliye phone nahi utha paya.Kya hua?
Khushi: Jijaji,aap hamesha humari jiji k saath rahenge naa?Aur humara phone bhi uthayenge naa?Humse wada kijiye!
Aakash: Ha Khushiji! Ha,main rahunga un k saath,hamesha!Sab.. theek hai? Paayalji theek hain?
Khushi(smiles): Ha!Ha!Ab sab theek hai!..
Arnav(agitated): Akash! Mr. Oberoi London se aa gaye hain. Tum jaakar un k saath conference shuru karo main aa raha hoon..
Aakash(nods): Ya. (to Khushi)Aap.. khayaal rakhiye.
Khushi nods.
After Aakash leaves,Khushi turns around to face Arnav when her wet hair whiplash his face.
She gives one long angry look & leaves.
Arnav follows her towards the exit.
Arnav(calls loudly): Khushi..!
Khushi doesnt turn to face him. So Arnav comes & stands right next to her.
Arnav: Tumhari koshish ki daad deni hogi,Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada!
They both turn to face each other.
Arnav: Lekin tum haar gayi! Ummeed hai ki haar kar Shantivan jaa rahi ho!
Khushi(determined): Nahi! Hum waapis nahi jayenge!Aur aapko pata hai kyun? (boldly)Kyunki hum aapse darte nahi hain!
Arnav(amused): Oh,really?(smirks)Toh yahaan kyun aayi ho?Maine ek ungli tak nahi uthaayi aur tum bhaagti hui yahaan tak pahuch gayi!
Khushi averts her gaze.
Arnav: Agar main kuch karta tab tumhara kya haal hota? Tab tum kya karti Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada?
Khushi: Aap kuch nahi kar paate! Kyunki jijaji aapki baat kabhi nahi maante!
Arnav: Aakash woh hi karega jo main kahunga! Aur agli baar tum aur buri tarah harogi! Isiliye zyada naatak kar k mujhe woh karne pe majboor mat karo jo main nahi karna chahta!
Khushi: Itna majboor toh humne aapko kar hi diya ki aapko humse shaadi karni padi! Ab isse zyada majboor koi kisi ko kaise kar sakta hai?
Arnav: Do ghante! Agar do ghante me tum Shantivan nahi pahuchi toh uska nateeja tumhari behen Paayal ki shaadi k liye achchha nahi hoga!
Khushi: Aapko jo karna hai kar lijiye,Mr Raizada! Hum ghar wapis nahi jayenge!
Arnav: Agar do ghante baad tum Shantivan me nahi hui toh mera naam bhi Arnav Singh Raizada nahi hai!
Khushi: Theek hai. Toh apne liye ek naya naam soch lijiyega! Aapk paas do ghante hain!
Arnav: Sapnon ki duniya se baahar niklo,Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada! Tumhare paas do ghante hain..
Khushi: Dekh lenge! (smugly)Aur aapka naya naam bhi jaan lenge!
She walks away from him.
*Flashback ends*
Mami: Hello hi bye bye! Sasuma,humka.. ek.. doubt hai. Hum.. poochhbe?
Nani: Poochhiye..
Mami: Arnav bitwa,tum tau ee phati saadi k aapan wife maane hi naahi the! Tau phir tum kaahe repeatedly oo k Khusi Kumari Gupta Singh Raijada kahat rahe,hain? Aur oo bhi jab tum dunno alone the?
Arnav: Mami,maine admit nahi kiya,lekin jab Khushi ne apne naam k aage mera surname lagaaya toh mujhe bahut achchha laga tha! Mujhe uska yeh naya naam bahut pasand aaya isiliye main use usk poore naam se bula raha tha.
Khushi: Aur hum toh yeh soch rahe the ki aap humein tana maar rahe hain!
Mami: Tumka tau hamesa wraang(wrong) hi laagat raha,phati saadee!
Nani: Bas Manorama! Aage bataiyye,Chhotey..
Arnav: Khushi buaji k ghar waapis chali gayi. Thodi der baad maine apne ek worker ko do envelopes lekar unke ghar bheja. 1 envelope par buaji ka naam tha, jisme Aakash aur Paayal k shaadi k photos the. Aur doosre par Khushi ka naam tha,jisme divorce papers the.
Everyone is shocked to hear that.
Arnav: Maine humari shaadi k agle din hi Mr. Roy se kehkar divorce papers mangva liye the.. Mujhe kahin na kahin yeh pata tha ki.. mujhe unki zaroorat padegi,Khushi ko Shantivan me rakhne k liye.
Paayal shakes her head in disgust.
Arnav: Maine us worker k phone par call kiya aur usse kaha ki woh Khushi se meri baat karvaaye. Jab Khushi phone par aayi maine usse kaha..
*Flashback*
Arnav: Khushi yaad hai?Jab tumne yeh office join kiya tha tab maine tumse kaha tha ki tum yeh office chhod dogi? Woh hi hua! Maine tumse yeh bhi kaha ki main mamiji ko Aakash aur Paayal ki shaadi k liye convince kar lunga. Woh hi hua! Main jo kehta hoon hamesha woh hi hota hai,Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada!
After a pause..
Arnav: Buaji Aakash aur Paayal ki shaadi k photographs dekhkar bahut khush hongi naa? Ab tum check karo ki tumhare envelope me kya hai?
Arnav gives a moment to Khushi to open the envelope & absorb the shock upon finding divorce papers in the envelope.
Khushi(pleads): Dekhiye,aap aisa nahi kar sakte hain! Aap..
Arnav(interrupts): Kar sakta hoon! In fact,kar chuka hoon! Tumhare paas do envelopes hain,do choices hain- Paayal ki shaadi ya phir uski barbaadi! Oh & by the way,faisla karne k liye tumhare paas sirf dedh ghanta hai. Agar dedh ghante me tumne faisla nahi kiya toh Aakash in papers par sign kar dega! So hurry up!
*Flashback ends*
Nani: Aage..?
Khushi: Humne jijaji ko phone kar k kaha ki hum unse milna chahte hain. Unhone humein office bulaya par humne wahaan jaane se manaa kar diya. Toh unhone humein lotus cafe aa jaane k liye kaha. Jab hum wahaan pahuche toh humne dekha ki.. jijaji kuch kaagzaaton par dastakhat kar rahe hain. Arnavji humein dekhkar muskura rahe the isiliye humein.. Humara shaq yaqeen me badal gaya ki woh talaaq k hi kaagzaat the!
Nani: Par bitiya bina dekhe aapne ee nirnay kaisan liya ki oo talaaq k kaagaz rahe?
Arnav: Iss me Khushi ki koi galti nahi hai,nani. Maine mahaul hi kuch aisa bana diya tha jisse ki Khushi ko lage ki Aakash divorce papers sign kar raha hai. Jab ki woh Nainital ki deal k papers the. (to Khushi)Tumhe woh taareekh yaad hai Khushi,jis din yeh sab hua tha?
Khushi(nods): Ji. 8 March ki taareekh thi.
Arnav: Right!
He opens one of the files which Mr. Roy had given to him & takes it to Paayal.
Arnav: Tumhe meri baat par yaqeen nahi tha naa Paayal? Tum khud hi check kar lo. Yeh woh hi deal k papers hai jin par Aakash ne Khushi k saamne signatures kiye the. Iski date dekh lo..
Paayal checks the date.
Paayal: Yeh toh.. 8 taarekh k hi hain.(confused)Toh un kaagzaaton ka kya jinko aapne buaji k ghar bheja tha,Khushi ko daraane k liye?
Khushi: Woh toh talaaq k hi kaagaz the. Humne padhe the woh kaagaz!
Arnav: Right! Woh yeh rahe..
He opens the other file & shows it to Paayal.
Arnav: Khushi,tum bhi dekh lo. In papers par kisi ki sign nahi hai.
Khushi checks those papers & then shows it to nani.
Arnav: Ab toh tumhe yaqeen ho gaya hoga na Paayal ki mera koi irada nahi tha tumhari aur Aakash ki shaadi ko todne ka?
Paayal doesnt say anything.
Arnav: Main sirf use as an excuse use kar raha tha,Khushi ko iss ghar me rakhne k liye. Mera plan kamiyaab hua! Khushi ne jab Aakash se poochha ki usne papers kyun sign kiye toh Aakash ne kaha ki ussne woh papers mere liye sign kiye hain. Usne yeh bhi kaha ki woh mere liye kuch bhi kar sakta hai! Aakash toh clients k saath nikal gaya par Khushi waheen reh gayi. Maine usse kaha ki agar woh Shantivan nahi pahuchi toh main divorce papers par Paayal k signatures karvaa lunga. Aur..
Nani: Aur dar k maare Chhoti bitiya ko ghar lautna hi pada. Aur aapki chaal kaamiyaab hui gayi.
Arnav nods.
Buaji: Waah,Nandkisore,waah! Ek taraf tau tum humri bitiya k sang ee sab chaalbaaji karte hau aur duji taraf ee kahte hau ki tumko oo se prem hui gava tha? Oo bhi saadi se pahile? Hum kaise maan le? Tumhri ee sab harkaton k baare me sunkar tau aisan naahi laagat raha ki tumko Khusi se tanik bhi prem tha!
Arnav: Buaji,jaise ki maine pehle bhi kaha tha,main Khushi se pyaar karta tha lekin main usse naaraaz bhi tha,kyunki mujhe lagta tha ki woh mujhse pyaar nahi karti hai. Woh Shyam se pyaar karti hai aur dono milkar meri di ki life kharaab kar rahe hain.
Buaji doesnt say anything.
Arnav: Sach toh yeh hai ki mujhe dar sirf iss baat ka nahi tha ki Khushi k ghar chhodkar jaane k baad main gharwalon ko kya jawaab dunga. Naa hi sirf iss baat ka tha ki agar shaadi ki sachchhai Khushi ne sabko bataa di toh kya hoga.
Sabse zyaada dar toh iss baat ka tha ki Khushi.. mujhe chhod kar chali jayegi. Maine use khona nahi chahta tha! Main nahi chahta tha ki woh mujhse door jaaye! In fact jab Khushi kamre me aayi maine usse yeh hi kaha..
*Flashback*
Arnav: Maine kaha tha naa,Khushi? Tum mere paas waapis aaogi! Aur mujhe apna naam nahi badalna padega! So,I'm still Arnav Singh Raizada!
Khushi: Hum maante hain ki aap ki jeet hui hai aur humari haar. Par ab yeh kaagaz humein de dijiye. Aur phir kabhi jiji aur jijaji ko alag karne k baare me sochiyega bhi mat!
Arnav: Papers toh main apne paas hi rakhunga,Khushi. Kahin safely rakhunga. Taaki agli baar tum aisi koi bhi harkat karne se pehle do baar socho!
*Flashback ends*
Nani: Un kagazon ka kaa hua?
Arnav: Khushi unhe lekar bhagi aur usne unhe pool me daal diya.
Aakash: Tab hi aapne Nainital ki deal k papers dobara banvaaye the aur dobara un par meri sign li thi?
Arnav nods.
Khushi: Humne.. anjaane me aapka nuksaan karva diya naa?
Arnav: No! Koi nuksaan nahi hua tha. Jaisa ki maine tumse uss waqt kaha tha
maine woh documents dobara banva liye. (to nani) Maine Khushi ki khushi ko yeh kehkar aadha kar diya. Maine usse yeh bhi kaha tha Sab kuch mere control me tha,hai aur hamesha rahega! Aur maine use hidaayat di ki woh agli baar koi aur stunt na kare aur chupchap 6 mahino tak yeh drama karti rahe.
Nani: Aage?
Arnav: Agle din subha uthte hi meri nazar sabse pehle poolside par padi. And I was pleased to see ki Khushi ne meri baaton ko seriously le liya hai. Woh waheen so rahi thi. Us raat ko holi ki pooja thi,jo humne saath me ki. Khushi ne meri patni hone ka drama jaari rakha aur main khush ho gaya,yeh sochkar ki ab woh ghar chhodkar jaane k baare me kabhi nahi sochegi!
He looks at Khushi.
Arnav: Phir agle din kuch aisa hua jo maine bilkul expect nahi kiya tha.
Nani: Agle din yaani holi k din.. Kaa hui raha?
Arnav: Holi wale din maine realize kiya ki.. Khushi mujhse pyaar karti hai!
Khushi(shocked): Kaise pata chala aapko?
Arnav(surprised): Khushi,tumhe sach me kuch yaad nahi hai?
Khushi(approaching him): Nahi!
Arnav(smiles): Shaayad tumne kuch zyaada hi bhaang pee li thi,isiliye.
Khushi: Par bhaang toh aapne bhi pee thi naa? Phir aisa kaise hua ki aapko sab kuch yaad hai par humein nahi?
Arnav: Tumhe lagta hai main jhoot bol raha hoon?
Khushi: Nahi Arnavji! Humara matlab woh nahi tha! Hum toh bas.. soch rahe the ki.. aapko sab kuch yaad raha toh humein kyun nahi?
Arnav: Kyunki maine tumhare muqable kam bhaang pee thi. Aur mere senses mere control me the jab ki.. tumhare senses tumhare control me nahi the. Tum kahin chali gayi thi.
Khushi(confused): Kahan chale gaye the?
Arnav: Main tumhe har jagah dhoond raha tha ki.. itne me maine tumhe.. baahar dekha,gazebo me. Aur..
He's interrupted by his mobile.
Arnav(looking at his mobile): Ek important call hai. Excuse me..
Arnav goes out of the living room while Khushi tries to remember what happened in the gazebo on Holi.
