Chapter 14
Arnav entered the Raichand house and he saw that the servants are busy in decorating the house. Every one is busy. But the none of the family member is to be seen anywhere. He looked around and saw Ramu kaka instructing a worker. He walked towards him.
Arnav: "Kaka, where is everyone?"
Kaka: "Arrey... Arnav babua? When did u come?" He asked kindly.
Arnav: "I just reached. But where is everyone?"
Kaka: "They all are in Khush beta's room." Arnav nodded at him and walked towards Khush's room. He reached near the room and saw everyone fussing over Anjali. He could see that Anjali is very happy. She is glowing in happiness. He smiled with content by seeing his sister happy. He wished that his sister may remain happy all the time. Anjali saw Arnav standing at the door with an content face.
Anjali: "Arrey.. Chotte!!! When did u come and why are u standing there? Come inside na!" She said him happily. That's when everyone noticed Arnav. He entered the room and sat near Anjali.
Arnav: "Di, jiju Congrats!''He congratulated them for the good news. '' How u feeling di? Do u want anything to eat or drink?" He asked concerned. Anjali shook her head at him.
Anjali: "I'm fine Chotte. And i don't want anything." She reassured him.
Buaji: "Okay! Anjali bitiya, now u should rest and we all are leaving.''
Anjali: "Ji buaji. But could u sent Khushi to here?" Buaji nodded at her and left the room with others including Arnav.
**************
After sometimes Khushi entered the room and saw Anjali waiting for her in the bed.
Khushi: "Bhabhi, Did u called me? Do u want anything?"
Anjali: "No, I don't want anything. You pls come and sit with me." She made Khushi sit at the bed with her. She hold Khushi's hand
Anjali; "Khushi, u were saying something about Chotte. What is it?" She asked little worried. Khushi was taken aback by the sudden question of Anjali. She saw worry in Anjali's eyes. By saying about Arnav it will only cause sad to Anjali. More over she don't want to spoil Anjali's happiness.
Khushi: "Nothing bhabhi, I was saying that Arnav ji was asking u at the party yesterday and i forgot to tell u." She lied to her. Anjali looked at her doubtfully.
Anjali: "U sure Khushi? U could tell me anything. Is he bothering u in anyways?"
Khushi; "Why would he bother me bhabhi? I'm telling the truth.'' She again lied to her. It seems that Anjali trusted her words.
Khushi: "Okay bhabhi, U take rest.'' With that she walked out from the room.
****************
Khushi is standing at the balcony of her room and was thinking something deeply. "Thinking about me?" The sudden voice startled her and she turned around and saw Arnav standing there leaning over the door frame smirking. She became tensed by seeing him. She remembered the phone conversation that she had with him and what all stupid thing she blabbered to him! She became red due to that thought.
Arnav: "I heard that, people in nervousness will blabber stupid things but today i heard it from a certain person." He teased her. She gulped down. She didn't answer him and avoided eye contact with him. He didn't like it when she kept quiet from him and refused looking at him. "The Khushi Kumari Gupta or should i say Khushi Raichand i knew was never afraid of anything." He further teased her. And that worked!
Khushi: "AFRAID???? And me? Who told u that i'm afraid?'' She asked narrowing her eyes. Arnav's smirk grew wider. He got what he want! Response from her.
Arnav: ''There is no need of telling it. I could say that u are afraid of me.''
Khushi: "Mr. Raizada, I think u should check ur eyes. Because Khushi Raichand is not afraid of anything." She stated proudly. Arnav raised an eyebrow amused at her.
Arnav: "Really?" And Khushi nodded at him. He started to move towards her in small steps and automatically Khushi started to move backwards.
Arnav: "Why are u moving back Khushi?" He asked her in his husky voice still walking towards her.
Khushi: "Because u always come front wards.'' She answered in a small voice. He cornered her. She is breathing heavily. There is only a small distance between them! Suddenly he flicked her tip of nose with his index finger.
Arnav: "It became red."
Khushi: "Huh?" She asked confused.
Arnav: "Your nose. It became red.'' Khushi looked at him confused. "Next time on wards Khushi, call me only if u could talk to me properly with out stuttering." He again teased her. Khushi's mouth become perfect-O-shape.
Khushi: "Oyyee! I'm telling u again and again that i'm not afraid of anyone and specially not of u, Mr. Raizada.'' She told him irritated.
Arnav: "I challenge u Khushi, u are afraid of me." He challenged her and CHALLENGE is a thing that Khushi raichand can't resist.
Khushi: "We will see it Mr. Raizada." With that she stormed out from there leaving an widely smirking Arnav.
***************
He came downstairs to the hall and saw Khushi talking to Payal and Akash. Khushi saw him. He smirked at her and she looked away from him. At the same time Aditya came there. He greeted every one. He came towards where Khushi, payal and Akash is standing. By seeing Aditya, Arnav's face smirk replaced by a deep frown.
Aditya: "Hey guys! Enjoying with out me? huh?" He asked them casually.
Khushi: "Oh.. Here comes the Aditya Sinha, who was very busy some times before. Now what happened? Are u not busy?" She asked in a mock anger.
Aditya: "Come on yaar... I was busy with the meeting. Now come, I will take where ever u asked me to.''
Khushi smiled brightly at him and went outside with him after asking every ones permission. Arnav was surely pissed by this. He is seething in fury and pure jealousy. He stormed out from there suddenly while others looked at his retreating figure as not knowing what had happened to him suddenly.
