Chapter 9A : Defeated by Feelings
Arnav froze on the spot while Khushi hugged him with all her heart.. Slowly, he brought his hands to her back and both stayed into each other's embrace, completely drenched for a long time... While Khushi was not ready to leave his chest anytime soon, Arnav pulled back forcefully from her hold and he pierced into her eyes.. as he said in a furious yet calm tone...
ASR: What is wrong with you Khushi? Tum kabhi sochti nahin kuch karne se pehle... (What is wrong with you Khushi? You never think before doing anything...)
He grabbed her shoulders angrily as he shouted...
ASR: Damn it kuch ho jaata to.. Agar mein waqt pe nahin aaja ta to.. I was right.. tum sirf ek teenager hain.. isliye bina soche samjhe kuch bhi karleti.. Tum... (Damn it what if something had happened.. What if I didn't reach on time.. I was right.. You are only a teenager.. That's why you do anything without thinking.. You...)
Suddenly his words stopped when Khushi's eyes welled up with tears.. Slowly she brought her hands to her ears.. Holding her ears innocently she said in cries...
Khushi: Iss teenager ko ek akhri baar maaf kar dije.. phirse aisi galti nahin karoongi.. I'm really sorry! (Forgive this teenager a last time.. I will not repeat such mistake again.. I'm really sorry!)
Arnav's expressions softened and he couldn't help but felt amused... Khushi kept holding her ears while she shivered from cold.. drops of water falling from her hairs and her dress was completely transparent.. Arnav's eyes travelled down her body and it was then that Khushi remembered her state.. She felt nervous when all of a sudden Arnav took out his coat and slid behind her.. He helped her wear his coat and Khushi conformed to this without a word... As soon as she was less naked, Arnav spared her no second and he passed his one arm around Khushi's waist... Abruptly he swept her feet off the road much to Khushi's surprise.. Arnav began walking towards the exit of the dark lanes while Khushi held on to his collar.. Her eyes stayed fix on Arnav's expressions till they finally reached the car... As soon as Sam spotted Arnav, he rushed to open the backseat door and Arnav laid Khushi onto the seat.. Their eyes met for a split second and Arnav finally pulled back.. After Tyara jumped into the car, Arnav closed the door.. He walked to the other side and entered the car.. As he sat opposite Khushi, he laid back his head onto the seat and closed his eyes.. At last taking a breath of relief while the limousine started up towards AR Designs.. At this time of the morning, the roads were block with a dense traffic jam, and upon that the heavy rain made it even more difficult to circulate.. With the dark clouds formed into the sky as well as the fog, it seemed as if it nearly reached the fall of the night.. During the drive, neither Khushi nor Arnav decided to say a word to each other.. and when Arnav fell into a light slumber, Tyara sleeping in her lap, Khushi sat for long staring at the lines of Arnav's perfect face.. About almost two and a half hour later, the limousine finally pulled in at its destination, AR Designs Building in the center of London... The parking was deserted.. All staffs of AR Designs had been released early in reason of the unstopping torrential rain.. One of the day time securities rushed to Arnav with an umbrella when the latter stepped out of the limousine.. The security guard opened the umbrella protecting Arnav from the rain and followed him when he walked to the other side of the limousine.. Arnav helped Khushi out and passed out a hand around her waist so as to keep her close to him under the umbrella.. Not once he fixed into her eyes while Khushi kept on staring at him.. In a fast pace, Arnav guided Khushi into the building and soon they entered the lift alongside Sam carrying Khushi's luggage as well as Tyara into her carrier bag... The lift door closed, it began moving up and Khushi clenched her fists.. Standing by the mirror wall, she was drowned into nervousness and fear.. At times Arnav's arms almost brushing hers.. Her heart was racing and she jerked at the sudden sound of the lift... The lift's door slid open and revealed the lavish apartment on the last floor of AR Designs...
While Sam went straight to the bedroom and kept the luggage into the dressing as well as Tyara's carrier bag onto the floor, Khushi explored the penthouse in awe.. Arnav followed her expressions as in a slow pace she entered the living room while admiring the interiors.. Sam walked out of the room, passed through the living room, entered the lift and pushed onto the ground button.. Finally he disappeared leaving Arnav and Khushi alone into the apartment.. and without losing any time, Arnav called out..
ASR: Khushi!
Khushi turned towards him.. Pointing towards the room, Arnav said..
ASR: The room is this way.. go shower and get change.. else you'll get sick!
Khushi nodded a yes with an hesitant smile and immediately she went towards the room.. Before closing the door, she turned towards Arnav and they both shared an eyelock.. Arnav was the one to break the eyelock and he strode to the kitchen counter.. Khushi nodded unbelievably at Arnav's fake anger as she mumbled to her..
Khushi: Laad Governor!
And she closed the door..
*****
Standing by the kitchen counter, lost into his thoughts, Arnav was pouring hot coffee into a cup when accidentally the hot liquid fell onto his hand... As he burnt his hand, he cursed in pain...
ASR: f**k!
Immediately he brought his hand under the cold water of the tap and nodded angrily to himself..
ASR thinks: All this is because of this Khushi.. It was truly a bad idea.. I'll have to bring her back to her father.. In anger, I thought to teach her a lesson.. that no one denies to ASR.. But.. ab mujh se nahin hoga.. Mein uski aansoonn nahin dekh sakta.. (Now I can't do this.. I can't see her tears..)I can't.. I'll have to bring her back.. She is as much innocent as I thought of her to be a spoilt brat!!

~Chapter 9A Continues In Post Below~
~CHAPTER 9A CONTINUES~
Khushi stepped out of the shower cabin and adjusted the towel around her body.. Her wet hairs let loose on her naked shoulders.. Drops of water dripping onto the mat, She wiped off the steam on the mirror.. She stared at her reflection intensely while her eyes shined.. Her heart was restless.. A smile curved onto her lips and she began blushing at her own reflection.. Millions of butterflies formed into her belly as goose bumps while her mind travelled back into the arms of Arnav.. She closed her eyes as she remembered how he picked her up and carried her to the car.. The fear on his face though she was safe and sound by his side into the car.. It was as if Arnav was dying at the thought of losing her.. And her heart! It was racing.. Why did she tell those drunkards that Mr. Raizada will kill them? What was she thinking?? Her eyes shot open.. Staring at herself.. She brought her right hand onto her heart.. Dhak Dhak, Dhak Dhak.. Restless.. Scared... After all her heart knew the answer to her questions.. and she went lost into the past...
FLASHBACK
The eyes of Shashi Gupta popped out in shock at the sudden actions of his daughter.. and he said shockingly..
Shashi: Khushi.. Yeh kya tarika hain! Aise photo ko kyun phal diya? Ab main in logon ko kya kahooga.. (Khushi.. what is this way! Why did you the photo like this? Now what will I tell those people..)
And Khushi reverted back stubbornly..
Khushi: Yehin ke Khushi Kumari Gupta ne photo bina dekhe ko phal diya.. Aur kripa karke phir se rishta nahin behdije.. Samjhe.. (That Khushi Kumari Gupta torn the photo without looking at it.. And do us a favor don't send a proposal again.. Understand..)
Shashi: What is this Khushi? Kya tum kabhi shaadi nahin karoongi... (What is this Khushi? Will you ever get married...)
Khushi: What dad? How can you think like this? Of course I will get married.. In fact a big fat wedding with all those long rituals like in Bollywood movies.. But not to some stupid tom dick or harry..
Shashi: Acha aur tumhe lagta mein kisi tom dick ya harry ke photo tumhare paas lekar aahoonga.. Mein to apni rajkumari jaisi beti ko ek rajkumar hi laaoonga.. Kamse kam tum photo dekti usse phal ne se pehle.. Pata hai kitne bare aadmi hain.. uska naam... (Oh and you think I'll bring any tom dick or harry's photo to you.. I will only bring a prince for my princess daughter.. At least you should have look at the photo before tearing it.. Do you know how famous that man is.. His name...)
Khushi: But I have no interest into his name dad.. Mein arrange marriage kabhi nahin karoongi.. Samjhi aap.. Aur kabhi mujhe force bhi maat karna.. (But I have no interest into his name dad.. I will never get into an arrange marriage.. You understand.. And don't you ever force me..)
Shashi: Kamse kam yeh to batado tumhe kaise ladka pasan hain?? (Atleast tell me which type of guy you like??)
Khushi stared at her father.. A smile on her face she nodded as she said..
Khushi: Pata nahin! (I don't know!)
Shashi: Kya? (What?)
And she said excitedly..
Khushi: Yes dad! I don't have any likes or dislikes.. Sirf yeh ke jab wo ladka mere samne aayega tab, sab kuch badal jayega.. Mein badal jaaoongi.. (Yes dad! I don't have any likes or dislikes.. Only that when this guy will come in front of me, everything will change.. I will change..)
Khushi stood from the sofa and walked a few steps.. Shashi stayed settled into the sofa and stared at Khushi confusingly...
Khushi: ek ajeeb bechaini hogi.. usse milne ke liye.. uss ke saat rehne ke liye.. Uske ek nazar meri dhakano tezz hoga... And when he'll be with me, I'll be nervous, I'll be scared.. but if he stepped back I might die.. Tab mujhe pata hoga ke yeh wohi hai jo mere liye bani... He will be my guy.. Jaise bhi ho, amir ya gharib.. acha ya bhura.. meri tara zidii ya samajdhar.. wo jaise bhi ho.. HE WILL BE THE ONE... (there will be a strange restlessness.. to meet him.. to be with him.. His one look will make my heart beats faster.. And when he'll be with me, I'll be nervous, I'll be scared.. but if he stepped back I might die.. Then I will know that he is the one who is made for me.. He will be my guy.. However he is, rich or poor.. good or bad.. stubborn like me or responsible.. however he is.. HE WILL BE THE ONE...)
FLASHBACK ENDS
Back to present, Khushi smiled to herself... and she said..
Khushi: ladne ke liye bahut bahane dhoondi meine.. lekin aab pyaar ki baatein ke liye paata nahin kaunsa bahane use karoongi mein.. (To fight I found a lot of pretexts... But now for romance I don't know which excuse I'll find..)
And suddenly, Khushi heard a noise of a door slamming.. Quickly she pulled on the bath robe and walked out of the bathroom.. she stepped out of the room and found Arnav nowhere.. She roamed around searching for him but he was nowhere around.. neither into the kitchen nor in the living room.. As she shifted her eyes towards the extremity of the living room, she spotted a door.. and she thought..
Khushi thinks: Maybe it's the terrace..
She walked to the door and pushed open the door slightly.. And...
