Aakash(shocked): She kissed bhai's forehead?And bhai allowed her to do so?
Khushi(non-chalantly): Ya!
The Raizadas' stare at Arnav which makes him uncomfortable.
Arnav: Ya,so what could I do? I tried to walk away,but Khushi didnt allow me to do that!
Khushi(holds her ears): Plz forgive me! For all those times when I irritated u,I'm really sorry!
Arnav: Its okay,Khushi! U need not b sorry. Ur pranks r nothing in front of whatever I did with u.
Buaji: U're absolutely right!
Nani: What happened after that?..
Khushi: I'll tell u,naniji.Like I made his room mine,he made my house his!
Arnav: Right! I got an AC for Khushi's room. And I also ordered Italian dishes for everyone.
Khushi(interrupts): He got ration for a whole year for buaji. I forcefully dragged him into Preeto's wedding preparations. I troubled u but u never protested! Instead,u helped me. And what did I do? I tried to embarass u everywhere,be it at chachaji's akhaada or by taking u to the handpump.
Arnav: Its okay,Khushi. I understand. U never wanted to embarass or insult me. U only wanted me to realize the kind of problems a common man has to face daily. Still,whenever there's a happy occasion , like Preeto's wedding,everyone comes together to help the bride's family.
Khushi nods.
Arnav: And besides,u didnt trouble me a lot. And its not as if I didnt do anything. U know very well what I did n said..
Nani: What r u talkin about,Chhotey?
Arnav: When parts of my car were stolen,I thought it was another prank played by Khushi. Hence I insulted her,outside the house,in front of the neighbours.
Khushi: But later when u realized that I was not the thief,u got golgappe for me,didnt u?
Arnav nods.
Amma: And since u insister,bitwa had so many golgappe!..
Khushi: He didnt hav them on my insistence,amma. He had those coz.. I was feeding those to him..
Arnav & Khushi look at each other & smile,recalling those wonderful moments.
Khushi: No wonder he kept having those even when his eyes were watering! Had the packet not got over,I'm sure Arnavji would've had another 50-60 golgappe! Am I right?
Arnav: To b honest,I never realized how many golgappe I'd had! My attention was.. solely on u. It was only when u stopped feeding me that I realized my stomach was too full!
Mami: Hello hi bye bye! Arnav bitwa,were the digestive pills,which I'd given to u,useful?
Arnav: Ya mami. They were really useful! Thanks!
Mami: I knew it very well that ur stomach will b upset once u hav food at phati saadee's maternity homewa!
Nani: Enough Manorama. Carry on,Chhotey.
Arnav: Something happened on Preeto's wedding night,which reminded of the.. scene I'd witnessed on the terrace on r wedding night.
Nani: What happened?
Arnav: Khushi had carefully kept a wrapping paper & card given by Shyam in her drawer..
Khushi: I save all kinds of wrapping papers so that when I need to give a gift to someone I can use them.
Arnav: I never knew that. I thought that u'd saved it bcoz.. Shyam had given it to u.
Paayal shakes her head & sighs.
Khushi: Thats y u were miffed with me that night?
Arnav nods.
Khushi: And I felt something totally different. The next day,I was watching Kamlesh Khabri ji's show on TV. He was telling how a rich man got married to a poor girl and later killed her coz he had a kundali dosh. He was warning all the poor girls..
Arnav(interrupts): And u thought that warning was for u! Heck! U even thought that I wanted to kill u since I had some kundali dosh!
Khushi nods.
Nani(shocked): What?!
Buaji: Haay re Nandkisore! What am I hearing,Sanka devi?
Arnav: Thats not all! Khushi even felt that I love Lavanya! And since she's coming between both of us,I want to kill her in order to clear the coast!
Mami: Now u tails uss (tell us),khoon bhari taang? U had a wrong idea and who thought it to be the truth,hayin? U were telling my Arnav bitwa naa that first he gets a wrong idea about things and thain (then) he accepts it as the truth,without any proofwa? Now u tails me,bhat did ur birenless (brainless) sister do?
Paayal lowers her gaze.
Mami: She thought that my Arnav bitwa is a killer,that too without any proofwa!
Amma: How could get sucha wrong idea,Khusi?
Khushi: Amma..
Buaji(interrupts): I'll tell u,Garima! All this is thanks to that Kamles Khabri!I will not leave that man!
Khushi: No buaji. Its not entirely Kamlesh Khabriji's fault. I'd.. (embarassed) secretly read Arnavji's diary.. Where in he';d written.. AR36K and.. circled the K and then crossed it. So I thought.. it means.. AR i.e. Arnavji has chhatis ka aankda(enmity) with K i.e. me. and since he'd crossed the K I thought that.. he's goin to.. kill me..
Buaji holds her head in her hands.
Khushi: And then I heard him talking to Lavanyaji where he said that her work will b done in 36 hours.
Mami: So u thought that he'll kill u in 36 hourss?! U're great, phatee saadee!
Nani: Stop it,Manorama!
Arnav: Lavanya's agent was troubling her. I was talking about him.
Nani: Chhoti bitiya,y didnt u think this way? Had Chhotey really loved Lavanya bitiya,he wouldve never allowed bitiya to go back to London.
Khushi: I'm sorry,naniji! But.. back then.. I never thought of all this.
Arnav: No wonder u kept running away from me!
Khushi: Ji.
Buaji: Was that the reason y u got scared upon seeing ur own blood?
Khushi: Ji buaji.
Buaji(makes a face): Silly girl!
Nani: Chhotey,what about AR36K? What does that mean?
Arnav: I was about to tell u that,nani. 1 minute..
He picks up one file from the coffee table and browses through it briefly before returning back to his seat.
Khushi: Tell me naa. What's there in this file?
Arnav: AR36K. U were partially right,Khushi... In this,K means Khushi.
Khushi(shocked): What? But back then when I asked u,u told me that..
Arnav(interrupts): I'd lied to u,Khushi.
Khushi: Tell me the truth today..
Arnav: AR doesnt mean Arnav Singh Raizada. AR means AR Designs. Specifically, AR Designs's shares.
Khushi(confused): But.. what connection do I hav with.. ur office's shares?
Arnav: AR Designs's shares r divided between myself,di & Aakash. Di & Aakash hav 32% shares each whereas I hav 36% shares.
Khushi: So that 36 meant 36% shares?
Arnav(nods): By selling those who could get atleast 15 crore Rs.
Khushi(shocked): What!? 15 crore?
Arnav: Yup!
Khushi(super confused): But.. Arnavji.. Y would I.. sell ur shares? And why did u circle and cross the K? I'm not able to understand that.
Arnav: Back then I thought that u need money that's y u're after Shyam. So,in order to.. throw u outta Shyam & di's lives,I came up with this AR36K plan. I thought that I'll give u my part of AR Designs's shares. By selling those u'll earn so much money in one go which u wouldnt hav ever seen in ur life! But,the condition would b,that in exchange of those shares,u'll hav to end ur relationship with Shyam,forever. And u'll hav to go somwhere far away from r lives & Delhi,to a place where Shyam will never b able to find u!
Khushi,and everybody else,is shocked to hear that.
Arnav: Not only this,I'd booked a villa on the outskirts of Goa for u & ur family. My plan was to send u all to Goa,with Aman in my chopper. Over there, Aman would hand over the keys of the fully furnished villa to u after u sign the agreement.
Paayal: Tell us,what was the agreement about?
Arnav: U'll never meet or try to contact Shyam again. If I come to know that u've done anything like that,I'll take back whatever I've given to u.
Paayal: Wow! U've got outstanding views about the person u claim to love!
Mami: U better sut up (shut up),khoon bhari taang! Bcoz ur sister also told that she loves r Arnav bitwa since the time bephore their weddingwa. Still she thought that he is a killer!So she also had an equally outstanding view about Arnav bitwa,samjheo?
Nani: Paayal bitiya,Manorama,plz calm down!
Arnav: I'm sorry Khushi! I'm really,really sorry! I know I misunderstood u but..
Khushi: I'm also sorry,Arnavji! Even I misunderstood u naa? So now we're equal!
Arnav smiles.
Khushi: So now u forget what I did & I'll forget what u did! Hmm?
Arnav nods & they smile at each other.
Naniji(thinks): My Chhoti bitiya has a heart of gold! I'm really fortunate,Devi Maiyya,coz I got bitiya as my daughter-in-law! My Chhotey couldnt hav got a better life partner!
She looks at buaji and mamiji,who r shooting daggers at each other through their eyes, and sighs.
Naniji(thinks): On one side,these two want to orget about the past & move on,whereas on the other hand,Manorama,Paayal bitiya & Madhumatiji r hell bent on thriving on the ghosts of the past.
She turns to look at ArShi,who r in the midst of an eyelock, lost in their private world.
Nani(thinks): Now I'll only hav to think of something in order to save Chhotey & Chhoti bitiya from these people!But I wont b able to do this alone. I'll need volunteers from both parties.
She looks towards mamaji,to find him looking at her.
And then,as if he understood whatever she was thinking,mamaji looks at mamiji and nods.
Nani(thinks): Now I need not worry about Manorama. Now Paayal bitiya & Madhumatiji r remaining.. I'll hav to talk to Garimaji for that.
She loudly clears her throat to gain ArShi's attention.
Nani: I think we need to rest for a while. Hari Prakashji...
HP: Ji naniji?...
Nani: Plz make mixed vegetable soup for everyone.
HP: Ji.
Nani: Anjali bitiya,Paayal bitiya,if u both shall help HPji,the soup will b ready in no time.
Paayal: Ji dadiji.
Anjali & Paayal leave for the kitchen.
Khushi: I'll also..
Nani(interrupts): No bitiya. U stay here,with Chhotey.
Khushi nods.
Nani: I need to chant the Durga stuti. I'll go to my room to do that.
Buaji: I'll also join u,naniji.
Nani(smiles): Sure! Plz come..
Buaji: Yes. Aye Garima,u also come along.
Amma: Ya jiji,lets go.
Mami: I dont bhant to go.
Nani: Nobody is asking u,Manorama. U may go & concentrate on ur makeup.
Mami bird walks towards the stairs.
Mamaji: a.. Aakash, bitwa u take samdhiji to ur room meanwhile I'll get paan for myself.
Aakash: Ok papa. Plz come babuji.
________________________________________________________________
With everyone else gone,ArShi r left alone in the living room.
Arnav gets up & holds Khushi's hand.
Arnav: Come..
Khushi: No Arnavji. Remember? naniji has asked me to stay over here.
Arnav(rolls his eyes): Khushi,nani has asked u to stay with me. So,u should b wherever I am. Come on..
Khushi: Ok. But we'll come down soon,hmm?
Arnav(nods): Lets go.
_________________________________________________________________
Once they're inside the room,Arnav closes & bolts the door.
Khushi: Arnavji..
Arnav: Khushi,I've told HP to call us when the soup's ready. And the soundproof system is switched off,okay? So dont worry!
Khushi nods.
Arnav: Come..
He holds her hand & takes her to the poolside.
Both of them sit on the edge of the pool,like they did on Holi,except this time Arnav's head is on Khushi's shoulder.
Arnav: I know Khushi,u dont think that coming to the room like this is right. I'm sorry! But.. I wanted to get out of that living room that.. atmosphere for sometime. I'm feeling very.. emotionally drained. I'm badly in need of solace. Over here,with u by my side n my plants near by,I'll surely feel better! Isiliye..
Khushi(interrupts): I understand. Do one thing,lie down,with ur head on my life. U'll feel better that way!
Arnav does what he's told.
Khushi runs a soothing hand through his hair while her other hand is firmly clutched by Arnav's hand.
Khushi: What r u thinking?
Arnav: Nothing. I just.. wanna lose myself in this moment for sometime.
He closes his eyes & sighs.
Khushi: U need to face many challenges outside this room. For that u'll need strength,courage and faith.
Arnav: That's exactly what I seek from u!When u hav faith n confidence in me,I feel that I hav to make sure that ur confidence never dwindles . I cant let u down in anyway! That makes me determined to go against all odds n keep ur faith intact! I want u to feel proud that Arnav Singh Raizada is ur husband!
Khushi smiles.
Arnav: When u encourage me,I feel stronger. This courage helps me to face all kinds of challenges coz I know,even if the whole world stands against me,my Khushi will always stand with me,no matter what!
Khushi: Absolutely!
Arnav: Ur love is my strength! U know something?Sometimes I feel that u're like glucose for me. When my sugar levels r low,I hav glucose. Then my sugar levels become normal. Similarly,wen I feel emotionally fatigued,when my emotional levels r low,by spending some time with u, I become emotionally strong!
Khushi: Hmm.. Now lemme do something which will make u all the more emotionally strong!
Arnav(gets up): How?
Khushi(points to the starlit sky): Like this!
Arnav looks at the stars & smiles.
Khushi: Not only me,my amma babuji and ur mamma also hav immense faith in u. U cant let them down either! Like I'm always with u,so r they!
Arnav smiles.
Khushi: Not only will u get their support,u'll also get their blessings! Blessings and prayers of the elders r needed by every individual in this world. Come on. Close ur eyes & quickly seek their blessings!
Arnav closes his eyes.
When he opens them,a minute later,he finds Khushi gazing lovingly at him.
Khushi: Should we go downstairs?
Arnav shakes his head & smiles.
Khushi(frowns):Y? What else is remainng now?
Arnav: Its time for the magic potion!
Khushi: What magic motion?
Arnav(smiles): This one!
He inches his face closer to her & claims her lips.
