Arshi: Making Khushi Mine I (THREAD 3) - Page 62

From that-snob-brother-of-Anjali-bhabhi to Arnavji. From scaring her wits by icy cold glares to reassuring her with his honey brown eyes. From avoiding him royally to hugging him close when sick. From throwing money in her face for taking care of HIS niece and nephew to today asking her to be their co-guardian. YEAH, they have come a long way. Saale sahab of her Shyam bhai and Chotey of her Anjali bhabhi had asked her to become his wife. Who would have thought that this would happen one day. Khushi could not deny that Arnavji would have not approached her if he was not sincere. But what she can not figure out was, WHY HER? He said that she can live in the house no matter what. So Adit Adya's upbringing could not be the issue. Is she missing something?

The change in their relationship was beautifully penned..

And the question he asked is does SHE want to marry him? Khushi had long ago stopped letting words like marriage, prince charming, happily ever afters delude her from her harsh reality. No matter how much Shyam bhai humored her, she always knew that with her background, he can not change the fact that she was not a socially viable daughter-in-law material for respected families. And she had made peace with her life. What she did not see coming was Arnav Singh Raizada taking over her life, and that too to this extent. He irked her for three long years, but when he decided to make up for it, he did that spectacularly. Becoming her best friend, her confidante and her guiding light. And now this proposal.

Khushi's mind was on a thinking spree. And think she did, from morning to afternoon, from afternoon to evening, into the night and still going strong. Today while feeding Adit Adya, she recalled the heart breaking feeling she encountered when she had thought he wants to marry someone else. That her angles will belong to some other women. Yesterday, when she was asking Hariprakashji to replenish Sugar-free in the pantry, she realized she wanted to take care of Arnavji. While waiting on dinner for him, it dawned on her that she had not eaten alone since so long. When Adya refused to sleep in Savita's arms, she could not shrug the glee at being wanted so dearly. And she was being offered a chance at all of this, a chance at normal life. Then why not take it? But will she make a good wife? Will she be a proper Raizada bahu? Oh god, she could give anything to get naniji or bhabhi's opinion right now. Will they approve of her? Would have they thought of her as a proper match for their beloved son and brother?
