DAY 11- To Crete
The next day was a more or less a break as their next stop was Crete, the birthplace of Zeus.
Khushi wanted to badly experiment gambling at the Casino on board, but Payal had chided her and asked her to shut up and stick to arcade games, much to Arnav's amusement.
Arnav was very much bothered by the fact that Khushi ignored him COMPLETELY, but never went out of his sight either. She would remind him to take his medicines and have food, and that was all.
Arnav looked up from the Greece Travel Brochure (Which he had been reading for time pass) when Khushi walked in with a four teddy-bears, one smaller than other.
"What the-!"
"Don't what the me!" Khushi said proudly.
"Why in the world did you buy those!"
"I didn't BUY them!" Khushi rolled her eyes "I exchanged them at the redemption booths for the tickets I won by playing games!"
"Why in the world would you do that!"
"In case you haven't noticed, I am very much bored and would like to do something to keep myself sane!"
"Well, you could talk to me!" he said carefully.
Khushi blinked at him. "I could'." She murmured and then looked straight into his eyes "But I won't'.!"
She headed off towards the bed, and set the teddy-bears carefully on the bed.
Arnav's temper flared at her audacity. He walked up to her and grabbed her arm. "How dare you!"
"How dare I?" she asked and pulled her arm away. "NO! How dare YOU! How dare YOU ask me questions when all you have the right to do is sit silently! How dare YOU make me lie to the entire family that we are happy? How dare YOU act like nothing is wrong between us? How dare YOU act like there never was anything between us? How dare YOU assume the most disgusting things? And most importantly'" she looked into his face "How dare YOU marry me when you hate me so much? Fine, assume whatever you want. If you are so sure that I am trying to ruin Di's life, you should have gotten me killed right? That would be much easier right?"
She stepped back and looked at his stunned face and turned away. "So Mr Raizada. The question is not about how I dared to tell you I won't talk to you. It is how dare YOU take me for granted."
She turned away from him and set the teddy bears in a line, in height-wise order.
Payal walked in just then and shook her head at the sight of teddies.
Khushi turned around. "See Jiji!"
"I saw Khushi! Ye kya bachapana hai?"
"I love teddy bears'" she whined.
"Right. I suppose you named them too'?" Payal asked laughing.
Khushi's smile faded a little. "Yes I did Jiji."
She pointed to the largest Teddy bear. "This one is Ashu. The one next to it is Kuku, Ashu's sister. And this one here, is Muski, Ashu's wife and this little one here' Is Dee." Arnav saw Payal's eyes fill with tears and she ran to hug Khushi. He saw Khushi's shoulder's shaking, crying into Payal's shoulder.
Feeling like he was an intruder, Arnav walked away uneasily, still not liking how the names Ashish and Muskaan sounded familiar.
After such a long trek, everyone except Khushi fell asleep.
Lying on the bed, she stared at the ceiling, too afraid to close her eyes. Two more days left. She always had grotesque nightmares. She was to afraid'
Her eyes felt like lead, her eyelids began to droop.
Khushi, no!
She had always slept with either Ashu Bhaiyya or Jiji hugging her on the days before her parent's death.
She looked at Arnav's sleeping form on the couch and muffled a sob.
She wanted to hug him and sleep. She hated herself for feeling that way' But when does your heart listen'?
She sighed and blinked her eyes continuously to keep from sleeping.
Moments later, she fell asleep with extreme apprehension and unwillingness.
She stood behind the tree, holding on to her brother. She was grown up now. She was looking at two men emerging from a car, examining the wreckage of their exploded car.
She saw a faceless man say "They are dead'"
"NOOO!!!! Bhaiyya do-" turned around to her brother but he was gone too.
"Bhaiyyyaaa! Where are you! They killed Mamma and Papa!"
She felt herself shake.
Her eyes flew open and she sat up on the bed with a jerk. Arnav was sitting in front of her with an anxious face.
"Khushi? Khushi what happened'" he asked, cupping her face.
He forgot his anger at her, when he saw her thrashing wildly on the bed, crying for her mother and brother.
She looked into his eyes, her own were wild and she was trembling violently.
"They killed my parents! Mamma and Papa!"
He hugged her. "Shh, Khushi it'll be alright'" he said soothingly, running his hands down her hair.
She cried into his shoulder for sometime, and then relaxed.
Arnav pulled back and saw that she was asleep.
He laid her gently on the bed. He decided to sleep next to her for the night and move away before she woke up the next morning.
DAY 12- Crete- The Palace of Knossos
The palace of Knossos belonged to the great King Minos. He was powerful, and ruled over the entire island of Crete. He was the one who had apparently gotten the ever-changing Labyrinth designed by the master-mind Daedulus, and housed the famous Minotaur in it (Which was killed by Theseus later on)
The Knossos palace was huge. It mostly consisted of the colors dark blue and red. Inside the palace, life-size painting of the Minoans adorned the walls. Back in those days, the taps apparently had running water supplied from a spring 7 kms away.
The throne of Minos was made of terracotta and was quite small, indicating that the King himself was quite small.
Khushi was in her Architect Mode again, running from pillar to pillar and admiring a certain Arthur Evans.
"Who the heck is that?" Arnav muttered.
"The guy who excavated this place…" Khushi whispered, her eyes darting from the wall carvings to the collapsing pillars.
"This place was discovered under meters of ash! The entire civilization was wiped out due to the explosion of the nearby Thera and got buried under ash. We are going there next…" she said and ran ahead to ask Marina, their guide a few more questions.
"Crazy!" Arnav muttered again.
Payal and Akash trudged behind them slowly, talking and laughing.
*
Akash looked at the two of them with a sad frown. What was going on? He promised himself that he would try everything in his power to get Arnav and Khushi closer. If it didn't work, he would talk to Payal at the end of their honeymoon.
"Akash?" Payal's voice broke through.
"Yeah Payal dear. Tell me…" he said, kissing her forehead.
Payal blushed. "Akash, we are in public!"
"Well, its quite common here! We could make out and no one would point a finger…"
"Shameless!" she laughed.
Akash sighed internally. He was selfish! She was happy… He didn't want to ruin it just yet.

After such a long trek, everyone except Khushi fell asleep.
Lying on the bed, she stared at the ceiling, too afraid to close her eyes. Two more days left. She always had grotesque nightmares. She was to afraid…
Her eyes felt like lead, her eyelids began to droop.
Khushi, no!
She had always slept with either Ashu Bhaiyya or Jiji hugging her on the days before her parent's death.
She looked at Arnav's sleeping form on the couch and muffled a sob.
She wanted to hug him and sleep. She hated herself for feeling that way… But when does your heart listen…?
She sighed and blinked her eyes continuously to keep from sleeping.
Moments later, she fell asleep with extreme apprehension and unwillingness.

She cried into his shoulder for sometime, and then relaxed.
Arnav pulled back and saw that she was asleep.
He laid her gently on the bed. He decided to sleep next to her for the night and move away before she woke up the next morning.
Santos said that those who wanted to trek across the caldera could do so. Khushi being Khushi wanted to go, but Payal refused vehemently.
"Khushi, I am too tired. I won't let you go alone…."
"Bhai will go with her…" Akash said.
"NO!" Khushi said. "That won't be necessary…" she muttered.
Seeing Akash's frown, Arnav sighed. "Khushi, its okay. Let's go."
Akash smiled. "Good!"
Arnav turned to Akash. "Akash, you said you have a surprise for us?"
"Oh. Oh yeah!" Akash went through his pockets and pulled out colorful paper.
"Whats that?"
"Well, they are tickets for an overnight stay at the caves!" Akash said excitedly.
"WHAT THE-!" Arnav yelled.
"Haaannn?" Khushi said dumbly.
"Khushi, me and Akash decided it'd be nice. And romantic! A gift from your elder sister and Jiju…" Payal said blushing.
"But Jiji and Jiju! It is not at all needed! Why did you do this…?" she asked, looking at Arnav for some sort of help.
Arnav was in frenzy. He saw Payal's anxious face and Akash's narrowing his eyes.
He closed his eyes. Akash, damn you!
"It's okay Khushi. I mean, we are on honeymoon after all… What's the harm in pushing up the romance levels…"
#2
, the four of them were sitting in an open caf, which looked out to the bay, which looked heart-shaped. A huge, blue-heart.
"So pretty!" Khushi murmured.
Akash smiled at her, while Arnav stared at her face as the wind whipped her hair across her face and her eyes looked with awe at the waters.
"Pretty indeed!" Arnav said softly.
Khushi whipped her head around and stared at him while PaYash snickered.
"I-I meant the bay!"
#3
"Are you crazy?! Didn't he say we could die!"
She looked at him confused. "Well, maybe you should let go then…! I would die and you wouldn't have to pretend anymore!"
"Don't talk like that dammit!" he said, pulling her closer to him so she crashed into his chest.
He looked into her eyes, unable to take the thought of her dying.
"Don't talk of death!" he whispered.
She closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. "Please stop confusing me…" she whimpered and on impulse, gave him a kiss on his cheek.
He let go of her, shocked.
#4
He froze as soon as he felt cold air hit his bare back.
"What in the world!" he exclaimed and realized that he was shirtless.
How had he ended up like this?!
Pushing the sheets further away, he realized he had no clothes on at all. "Holy Shit!" he thought, and tried his best to remember incidents of the previous night.
And to his utter horror, the last thing he remembered was fluttering hair of a blonde woman.
Oh Lord, no no!
#5
Arnav had to control himself from gasping at her condition. She looked pale and her eyes were swollen and red. Her nose was bright pink from crying…? Her cheeks were red and tear-stained. And on her lips, was a big, fat and FAKE smile.
"Khushi! What happened!" he asked.
"N-Nothing…" she said, looking at the sea.
His hands automatically reached for her cheeks, and to his shock, she cringed and edged away from him, whispering a "Don't… Please. Just don't!"
Arnav's eyebrows puckered in worry and confusion. "Khushi, what-"
"I hope you had fun last night!" she spat, standing up suddenly.
Arnav cringed. Shit!
"Khushi, I didn't-"
"I don't care. Just… Just don't… I… Well, go away!" she said, and turned away with her arms crossed, sniffling.
