PART 27: first step in love: i miss you!!! says who??
kushi looked at arnav: best friends right arnavjii and arnav held her hand smiling
and all split into laughter as nk and akash stood staring at their plan that had actually backfired them!!!!...
they all had a lovley dinner together and as usual kushi did most of the talking making ppl laugh at her antics...
anjali could see the old kushi almost back and to see chotey smiling from his heart was just a sight to see...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
a month was over and it was decided that 2 weeks from now will be the engagement party of anjali-rahul and nk - neetu!!!
arnav and kushi never missed their jogging schedules and arnav never failed to look forward to it... the one thing that amused ppl was how come inspite of jogging everyday chotey din loose weight!!( who knew about the cheese sandwiches sir was enjoying everyday)
though kushi put forward the deals arnav and kushi never failed to miss their night chats on phone
kushi was also preparing hard for her exams and arnav was making it more easy for her( thats what he thought)...
kushi was glad to see the side of arnav she had ever seen!! she felt she was really being friends with a totally new person...she actually felt she was with a best friend indeed!! past was far away from her memory now...
arnav was sure that he does not hurt or make kushi uncomfortable in anyway and he wanted to give her all the time... this was new to him too and he left things to happen naturally...

kushi pulled the blanket up and down playing with the sun...
neetu entered

kushi got ready and set off to the park
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
she saw arnav earlier than usual today...
kushi: boo booo ( from behind)
arnav: what the!! kushi your mad...
kushi: she imitated like arnav folding her hand OH REALLY
an amused arnav: pulled her close: really and both smiled!!!
kushi: arnavjiii i am sooo happpy...
arnav: i can see that but why?? got an award for madness or what
kushi hit him on the shoulder: you know my friend preeto.. its her wedding next week.. so i am off to delhi this thurday
arnav's face fell: kushii.. its on tuesday.. why do you have to go on thursday night itself... i will book the flight for tuesday early morning and you can be back in the night after the wedding.. i do that for all deals
kushi with her o rxn: arnavjiii... its not a deal.. its my BEST FRIENDS WEDDING!! thursday is actually late but work!! so i made it short
arnav: 4 days is short!! great
kushi: hmmm... here have these sandwiches... i tried a new flavor today
arnav quietly took the box from her and was holding it without eating
kushi kept her hand on his shoulder: arnavjiii
arnav: yeah kushii.. its good
kushi was suprised: but you din even taste it
arnav stammered: i meant it will be good and took a bite!!!
kushi found arnav strange... but she knew he was not the type to miss ppl nor would he tell something if it disturbs him
kushi: arnavjiii your okay na?? what happened suddenly...
arnav looked up and smiled: nothing kushi.. where is my juice( he tried his best to hide his dullness and succeeded)
kushi took out the bottle and arnav was surprised!! hey this looks like a kids bottle
kushi: yes arnavjii... the other bottles were used and i could find only this.. you know jiji got this for my bday when 4 yrs back
arnav: 4 yrs back.. you weren't a kid then
kushi: yeah but i loved these cute colored bottles... feels so good to have form them,
arnav smiled: weird you are!!
the rest of the time went with the constant chattering of kushi... finally arnav dropped her home and went back
**************************************************************************

arnavs thoughts!! 4 days.. just 4 days dammit and why did that upset me...but she was happy...she din feel the same or what.. why dammit... but wait his eyes fell on the calendar and he looked up as his eyes turned a moist red and he whispered: well its better she goes!! and rest his head back on his chair with his eyes closed!!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
kushi and neetu just entered the cabin without knocking...
seeing arnav resting his head on his chair she was worried.. she went near.. arnavjiii arnavjiii
arnav opened his eyes in shock: what the!!
kushi: what happened.. your okay na...
arnav: excuse me ... i am perfect!!!

i was just thinking about some deal.. arnav came back to normal..
kushi sighed and sat in the chair opp him... ufff... you and your deals...
arnav was amused at her expression... kushi thats my work!! and as your doing designing courses now you can join us as our staff soon...
kushi jumped back: oh o.. arnavjii.. me in AR.. impossible
arnav: why whats wrong!! we are no 1 kushi madam

kushi: i know arnavjii.. its okay dont hide
arnav in his cute irritated tone: shut up kushiii
kushi: ha ha... i would love a cabin room with beautiful flowers on one side pink wall , a simple table unlike the complicated ones like yours where i keep it in one side and gotta search through the other side...
arnav: then

arnav: a box of jelebi
kushi: nooo... a cute BOSS and winked at arnav...
arnav: what the!!
kushi: hmm right na.. then how can i work here when not even one is there and jumped out of his cabin winking again at him sticking her tongue out leaving a suprised neetu following her after getting papers signeed from ARNAV

arnav stood blushing like a kid at her antics..

.. she seriously was one of a kind!! and he thought back at what she said: what the!! i was a demon i guess!!! and afraid of her!! yeah but immediately his mind voice broke in: your ASR and he stiffened : yeah i was not scared!! no and walked back to work!! and he muttered: UNBELIEVABLE
