Arshi FF:Arshi's Life - Ch 66 & 67 on Page 149 - Page 11

Now Arnav is standing alone with his juice as others have surrounded Khushi and admiring her with their juices. Adi helds her shoulder and winks friendly saying "As usual... you look pretty in this too" which makes her to smile. Also she didnt miss to look Arnav in between who is only staring her sipping his juice alone. NK touches her head affectionately. Lavanya is smiling with them. While Shaan and Mike were watching Arnav's jealously face and they look at Khushi.

Both winks and Mike moves towards Khushi's group and mingles with them. While Shaan comes and stands near Arnav.

Shaan: Dude... we were thinking... (He slowly started)

Arnav: What... (He moved his stare from Khushi)

Shaan: Abot Khushi... (He waited for his reaction & it came as he expected)

Arnav: Khushi... What you were thinking... (He's serious)

Shaan: Nothing serious...

Arnav: Just tell it... (He's losing his patience)

Shaan: If she's interested... (Arnav is keenly watching him)... i mean with anyone of us... (Shaan is actually enjoying the tension on Arnav's face)

Arnav: What... (He raises his voice)

Shaan: Will she date anyone of us... (He spilled it finally & Arnav is fuming so much that is quite visible to Shaan)

Arnav: Shut up Shaan... Dont dare to lay your eyes on her... (He's furious while Shaan is enjoying inside)

Shaan: Hey... chill dude... We thought you dont like her... (He said calmly)

Arnav: Who said that i dont like her... (With gritted teeth he spilled unknowingly to Shaan's surprise)

Shaan: Okay...

Arnav: You two... better erase that thought permanently... (He said threateningly)

Shaan: Okay... okay... you relax... (He touched his shoulder and left him with a smile moving towards that group)

Shaan winked Mike and both of them smiled. Within five minutes Arnav came towards Khushi and yelled "Khushi...get changed... to my cabin... ten minutes..." then moving towards Adi "Take Shaan and Mike to lunch... dont wait for me" saying this seriously he walked towards his cabin.

Khushi stood holding her gown thinking what will happen next. Lavanya shook her which made her to come out of that shock state. She then moved towards the changing room. "Mmm... sorry... bhai is like that only" said Adi slowly for which Shaan and Mike laughed aloud. Adi, NK and Lavanya looked them not knowing why they were laughing like that.

"Dont worry guys... we know abot him very well" said Mike to their relief. In the meantime Khushi came out and ran towards his cabin. Then Shaan tells them everything. NK and Lavanya were shocked and also surprised. But Adi says "Yeah... i too guessed that something is going on between them". They all smile together.

Arnav is pacing restlessly like a lion waiting for its prey. When Khushi knocked his door and came in he (the lion) advanced her (his prey) threateningly closing the door. She's frightened to see him like that. "How dare you" saying this he pinned her against the wall. "What... what have i done" she said nervously not knowing why he's so angry.

"Is Adi and NK not enough for you" he said spilling his venomous words. "What" she asked as she couldn't get abot what he's talking. "Now Shaan and Mike... even me" he thought a second and "still how many you want in your trap" saying this he looked her sharply. "Stop it" she winced as she now got it and tried to move away from him but he pulled her hand and trapped her inside his hands.

"You can't escape from me" saying this with gritted teeth he closed the gap. He looked at her angrily. She felt as if she wanted to run away from him. She closed her eyes thinking of his words as she havent heard like that before. She winced.

"Tell me... Still how many you want in your trap" he again spilled it. "Enough... no more words" she yelled opening her eyes which made him to take his hands from the wall. She looked him with fire spitting from her eyes. "Watch your words" he said furiously. "What do you know abot me" she asked him angrily. "Why should i know abot you... you are not that important to me..." he said angrily.

"Fine... then you shouldn't tell like that abot others whom you dont know" she said seriously. "How dare you can talk to me like that" saying this with gritted teeth he helds her shoulders. "Dont touch me" she said and struggled to free from his grip.

"Why... when you are allowing others to touch you... why not me" he looked at her eyes. "They were my friends... they know their limits... they were gentle... they know how to handle a girl" she added to his fumes. "Really... then how it is" saying this he helds her waist in his right hand and pulls her closer. She struggles with heavy breathes and tries to push him with her hands. But now he helds her right wrist and looks her eyes with a smirk like this...

She tries to free her hand but in vain. "Now... is it okay" saying this he pulls her even closer which makes her even nervous. Her heart has already started to beat heavily that Arnav can sense it through her heavy breathes.

"What happened... why you are having heavy breathes when am close to you... i didnt see you like that when others touch you... what happened... are you scared of me" he smirked looking at her eyes. She too thought abot that. She didnt know why his touch and his closeness alone makes her so nervous with her heart pounding heavily.

He looked her eyes and then to her lips. He almost forgot what had he said abot her few minutes earlier. He lost in her beauty. Khushi came to her sense and as his words struck her again she started to free her hand from his grip.

"What happened" he said coolly. She didnt looked him and tried to free her hand. But he held it hardly that it started to pain again due to the morning incident. Tears started to roll over her cheeks as she stopped struggling. On seeing her tears he realised that he had again held her right wrist. Instantly he relieved her. She wiped her tears and took few steps away from him holding her right wrist with her other hand.

They heard a knock. Khushi turned away to hide her teary face. "Bhai.." Adi stood there. "What" he said. "Mmm... i was thinking... to take Khushi to lunch... Shaan and Mike also waiting" he said. She turned and walked towards Adi. Adi looked her face and is sure that something had happened. "No..." his words made her to halt. "She will have lunch with me" she looked him angrily "You go and join them" he ordered Adi. He nodded. "Are you okay" Adi asked Khushi before leaving his cabin. She nodded and he left. She came to her chair and sat calmly.

Tears filled her eyes as his words hurted her more still hurting her. She didn't look at him. Arnav stood there and couldn't able to watch her like that. He cursed himself for being so rude to her. "Damn it" saying this he went near his table and picked his intercom. He ordered lunch for them and kept it. He looked at her. She's still sitting like a statue except tears rolling over her cheeks and her hands wiping it.

They heard a knock. She wiped her face with her handkey. Gokul came with their lunch and he arranged it on the table as per ASR's words. Gokul glanced her here and there. She faked a smile to him. Then he left. Arnav came and sat near the table were food is served. He looked at her. She didn't move.

"Come and have your lunch" he said looking her. She didn't reply. "Don't you hear me" he raised his voice. She simply turned towards him and without looking him said "I don't want". She returned to her previous state.

"Don't faint in your challenge... I will consider it as an excuse to win over me" he said thinking that she will respond it. "I don't want any excuses... and I don't want to do any tricks to win... i can win truly..." saying this she came and sat opposite to him. He knew that her reply is meant for his poisonous words which he had spitted few minutes earlier on her.

She picked her spoon but couldn't able to eat as his words still haunted her. "Ten minutes" he said rudely. She simply started to eat as she needs some energy to fight with him. He had a victorious smile in making her to eat which she didn't notice at all. She didn't look at him.

In the meantime, Lavanya is worrying abot Khushi as Adi had told them abot her dull face when he went to bring her for lunch. Shaan said "She will handle him... also ASR is a nice person". Gokul too adds that Khushi looked very upset while he arranged food for them. Lavanya replies that "I didn't mean to say that ASR is not a nice person..." she stopped and looks at Adi and NK as she's talking abot their brother then "i mean he's a bit rude... she's so soft... how come she's going to handle him". Lavanya seems sad. Adi smiles at her and feels great abot her as she's so concern abot her friend. Suddenly he feels different for her. He couldn't get that.

NK touches her affectionately. Shaan and Mike convinces her saying that they had noticed how protective he's on Khushi. This makes her to smile. Then they had their lunch.

There Khushi keeps her spoon down without finishing her plate. Arnav looks her questioningly. Without looking him she says "times up for me". "That's okay... finish it" he said softly. But she didn't touch her spoon. "Okay... i will have mine... do you mind..." he said watching her expression. Without looking him "Go ahead... why should i mind... you are not that important to me" saying this she stood and walked out.

Arnav felt like someone pierced his heart with a sharp needle. He then couldn't eat. He simply asked Gokul to clean up the table via the intercom.

After ten minutes she came to his cabin. It's very clear that she had washed her face and looked pale. She looked dull as he had stealed her brightness. He felt guilty. They came down to send Shaan and Mike. Khushi just forced that cute smile in front of them. Arnav could sense that it's fake.

Lavanya looked at her and felt sad for her condition. Adi touched her shoulder and calmed her. She felt dreamy in his touch. He too started to realise that.

Arnav had tried many ways to make her look him by asking unnecessary questions. But in vain. She just replied him calmly without looking him. By 4pm he told her that they should go out. Without asking anything she picked her bag and followed him. Mercedes started his life.

Arnav is glancing her here and there. But she didn't as she had lost in her thoughts "Why you are having heavy breathes when I am close to you... didn't see you like that when others touch you... what happened... are you scared of me". She thought to herself "Am i scared of him... no... Then what is it" she couldn't get it.

Her silence especially she's not looking him... this drives him crazy. He stops in the middle and gets down. He felt angry on himself and hits his foot on the tyre. That's it he winces in pain. She just observes him by sitting calmly. He feels happy now thinking that he got his punishment for hurting her.

He couldn't able to walk. But somehow manages and sits. He then starts to drive. He looks at her. She's watching outside. Then they had reached a place. "We have to get down here" he said. That's it she gets down first and crosses the road. She then goes to the shop and returns after buying something. He didn't get what she is doing.

She came back to him and opened his door. "What" he asked her simply looking at her. Without looking him she took his hurted leg outside while he's still sitting in the seat. "What are you doing" he started but she had removed his shoe and then his sock. She then examined his toes and pressed it. "Ouch" his sound confirmed the spot. She then opened the ointment and applied it on the spot. He just wondered how can she be so kind when he had hurted her this much. He just stared her lovely. He could sense the pressure on his toes has reduced because her fingers were aching already. He felt guilty.

After that she looks him and says "This is not a way to trap you... It's just humanity". He felt that someone had slapped him hardly.
