... PART ELEVEN ...
Khushi bent and Arnav whispered on her ears,
Arnav : Khushi, I LOVE YOU.
He placed a kiss on her cheek which blushed automatically. He took his laptop and went out seeing Khushi who was blushing at his every turn.
Aaradana, Akash and Payal were near the room. When Arnav came out and saw all standing there.
Akash : I love you, Arnav. ( with a crazy laugh).
All the three laughed at Arnav who again peeped inside the room and Khushi who heard this was in deep blush. She ran and stood beside Arnav.
Payal : come, Khushi.. Its getting late.
Arnav : bye..
He went and sat with his laptop. Khushi was getting ready with the bridal ornaments while Payal was helping her out.
It was 9:30, Aaradana came down and saw Arnav sitting with the laptop. She went and closed it.
Arnav : ma..
Aaradana : go, Khushi is waiting.
Akash : oh!!
Arnav : Ma, he is going on teasing me.
Aaradana : Akash...
While Arnav gave a look to Akash that his mother is supporting him, after which
Aaradana : do you want a help, Akash??
Saying this Akash and Aaradana burst into laugh making Arnav to fade.
Arnav : you guys,... nice mom, nice bro and good family. Keep it up.
Arnav went upstairs forgetting his laptop.
Akash : hey.. your laptop...
Arnav : i don't want it to disturb me and my wife.
This statement made Akash's jaw touch the ground. Arnav gave a smile and went. He opened the room's door and was aww-struck to see Khushi in bridal wear sitting in the bed.

Arnav closely moved inside and locked the door. Khushi hearing the noise raised her face and blushed seeing Arnav. Arnav slowly moved near. Each step he took Khushi blush increased. Arnav came more closer and seas admiring his caramel eyes and Arnav her peacock feather eyes. Melting in their hearts. Arnav came closer to the bed. He went and picked Khushi from the bed and Khushi caught his shoulders. Seeing deep into their eyes, he made her to stand. When she stood, she felt like after a long time she was going to stand. He quickly cupped her face and kissed. Khushi was shocked because of his urgent action but slowly started to respond to him. Arnav slowly uncupped her face and pulled her more catching her waist. She slowly made her hand to settle on his shoulder. After minutes they parted while stilled their position was same.
Arnav : Khushi, where were you these days...
Khushi : waiting for you to take away me...
Arnav smiled and slowly scrubbed his hands in her waist when Khushi pushed him and Arnav sat on the recliner.
Khushi : and.. Where were you Mr. Raizada??
Arnav : planning to take away you, Mrs.Raizada??
He pulled and and she landed on his lap. Kissing in her cheeks, Arnav slowly and Khushi too.
Arnav : ohh !!
In a minute, Khushi got sacred and started to ask what happened.
Arnav : nothing Khushi!!! Your dress just stratched. It will vanish if my wife kiss me but after changing her dress??
Khushi : wait... She took her dress and went to bathroom. Arnav quickly changed his dress and sat in the recliner dreamind what all happen today... Step by step, morning misunderstanding, in the room , the breath taking moment when khushi came down from the stairs, their jaimala , pheras, tieing mangalsutra, filling sindoor, their hug after their marriage, and that aunty's talk. Arnav stopped...
Arnav : (ST) Is this important for our age and I still didn't understand her fully.
That moment Khushi came out and saw arnav in deep thoughts.
Khushi : Arnie...
Arnav : nup... Just ... Khushi can I ask you something?
Khushi : even me Arnie.
Arnav : yes,..
Khushi : you first...
Arnav : (clearing his throat and making Khushi to sit on the recliner) Khushi... (pause) is this important for us now?
Khushi : that was what even I was about to ask. I didn't even complete my college and...
Arnav : Khushi ... We will wait..
Khushi : Arnie.. Love is not only this but beyond.
Arnav : yes .. Khushi..
Khushi yawned and arnav started to admire her. He whispered in her ears.
Arnav : you look beautiful but a bit tried go and sleep.
Khushi : you...
He also yawned.
Arnav : yes, I am also. Come.
They slept and morning when Khushi got up. Rubbing her eyes, she saw someone jumping inside the room through a small opening. She was about to wake arnav and seeing the man, she kept her hand obln other side of the bed. Stunned to see Arnav not there, she again looked at the man. It was Arnav.. He came inside...
Arnav : good morning sweet heart...
Khushi : good morning deary... Where di you go??
Arnav : to your house..(handing over her bag and books)

Khushi face dropped...

Khushi : sure. I won't bunk from now on.
She got up and took hertowel and clothes and went to bathroom. Seeing Arnav, standing at the back.
Khushi : go Mr.Raizada. I will go next.
Arnav : thank you.
After sometime Arnav came out. Khushi was siting in the recliner. Searching for Khushi in the room, he throwed the towel on recliner after which he noticed her sitting.
Arnav : sorry!!
Khushi : it's okay! By the way what scent on you using ? nice smell..
Arnav smiled and wore his attire. It was when the button came out.
Arnav : Khushi will you get the box in the cupboard.
He was searching for the button and Khushi took it. After needling it,
Khushi : where is the button...
Arnav : it is there, under the bed. I can't bent wearing this suit.
Khushi : wait! I will.
She bent to take it and Arnav sat beside the bed. Khushi took the button and was about to hit the bed's arm when arnav placed his hand on her head.
Arnav : careful damn.
Khushi : why should I, when you are there with me.
Arnav : what a crazy dialogue.
Khushi gave one on his chest while Arnav gave a smirk.
Khushi was stitching it but the shirt was in her hand and Arnav was sitting in the recliner surfing his laptop.
After stitching the button Khushi went and she herself button the shirt.
Arnav wrapping his hand on her waist,
Arnav : how nice it will be , if you daily do this.
Khushi : Mr. Raizada, go to office. Don't dash your car against something dreaming about me.
Arnav : and same to you Mrs. Raizada. Read your chapters, i will tell to mom and go. Bye.
Khushi : (tougue out) bye.!!
She gave a big smile when he stepped out and gave a look. Arnav went down stair and ate is food when Aaradana came down.
Aaradana : Arnav are you really going to office.
Arnav : yes ma. Khushi has some exams tomorrow. Don't let her out of the room as you did to me.
Aaradana : sure, my son. As you wish.
Arnav : oh no, I forgot.
Aaradana : what??
Arnav : ma, if she has some doubts tell her to call me.
After a while, Aaradana went with breakfast to Khushi's room.
Aaradana : good morning.
Khushi : good morning aunty.
Aaradana : exams tomorrow?
Khushi : yes aunty...
Aaradana : aunty... You call me amma.
Khushi escaped a tear which she wiped before Aaradana saw.
Khushi : okay amma. What is that ?
Aaradana : breakfast.
Khushi : I would have come down.
Aaradana : no, if your hubby sees. That's all. He had told me to take care that you don't come out. If you have any doubts you call him or just call me. Okay!!
Khushi : ok ma.
Aaradana: close your book . Now eat your breakfast and then start fresh.
She nodded.
Aaradana came out. Khushi was in deep thoughts about Arnav. How he came into her life. Their first meet ,(smiled)hours passed. After a while, khushi started to read. For lunch, she went down and time passed reading. It was 5 when Arnav enter. Khushi was seeing him. But arnav ,as usual before his marriage, came and sat on his recliner. He then saw Khushi reading and quietly moved to the bathroom. He changed and laid on her lap and slept for a while. khushi closed her book and was caressing his hair. It was then seven when Arnav woke and saw Khushi still same when he slept and book was as same.
Arnav :(ST) Does it mean Khushi didn't read from when i came. I think I should have not laid.
He got up and went out. Khushi gave a smile and took her book. Hour passed Khushi waited for Arnav after completing. Arnav entered the room when Khushi slept. he, for the first time, he plucked a rose from his garden, neared Khushi and sat on the bed.

Arnav : Khushi... I love you ...
He placed the rose beside the pillow.
Arnav : So much damn... But I found that my love distracts you so much. I am also. But I am different and you are too. ( pause )
He kissed on her forehead.
He locked her hair behind the earlobe.

Arnav : Khushi.. Just for two and half years. Big but just for our good. ( tears ) I think I would be able to be away. Just pretend to, Khushi. I can't. ( pause )Love you Khushi.
Tears rolled. Placing a kiss on her forehead, he got up and laid on the recliner seeing her.
Next morning,
Arnav woke up when the sun rays flashed on his face. He got ready and went without telling to anyone. After an hour, Khushi woke and got ready. She searched for Arnav but he was not there.
Khushi : ma, did you see Arnav.
Aaradana : no, may be he has some meeting. He won't inform before going don't worry for that.
Khushi : oh no.. Its getting late. Bye ma.
Aaradana : all the best.
Khushi : bye di.
Payal : oh!! Bye.. All the best.
After exam, Khushi entered the house with a big smile.
Payal: pass.
Khushi who was searching for Arnav : no...
Aaradana : what??
Khushi : hope for 92%
Payal : oh no!! Something is going to happen today. If Khushi has done well, than some big problem.
Aaradana laughed at both , tapped on their shoulder and went.
Payal : go and rest.
Khushi came into the room and locked the door. Sitting down, she started to cry bitterly.
** Flash back **
Arnav : ... Love you Khushi.
Tears rolled. Placing a kiss on her forehead, he got up. Khushi opened her eyes and tears rolled on her face. When she saw Arnav seeing him, she pretended to sleep. After half an when she found that Arnav has slept, she got up and kissed on his cheeks.
Khushi : Arnav at least for you I will to my best.
She slept on the bed.
Morning,
Khushi got up and Arnav was not there.
Khushi: as Arnav left me. No !! I will go down.
After asking Aaradana,
Khushi : thank god.
** ends**
Khushi : where the hell has he went?
Cried and after sometime, she got up wiping her tears. Went and changed. Sat with the book for next exam.
Khushi : no, he won't have left me. Just wants to be away for while...
Smiled and with an energy boosting her she started to read...
Precap : a leap of few months with an interesting twist again.
