Arnav - I have some work in office ma...I will be back soon
Sunil - Chotte...what is this...are you nuts?
Arnav - What did I do Papa?
Khushi - You cant behave like this with Khushi...
Arnav thought Sunil was referring to the incident that happened between him and Khushi as he had seen Khushi talking to his parents a while ago...He looked at her..she was expressionless..
Arnav (to himself) - Oh god what did she tell them now...hope she has not told any thing happened (tensed and worried) what happened papa...what did I do wrong now? (he lowers his tone)
Sunil - Yes you did. You are newly married and instead spending time with your wife you are going to office???
Arnav - ahhh so you meant this... (Relaxed and smiles)
Sunil - Yes...what else you thought...
Arnav - I mean...(looks at Khushi...scratches his head. She could easily make out what he was thinking of but she ignores) Nothing...morning... (Khushi gets nervous now she cuts him in between)
Khushi - Morning he had told about going to office...in our room...right Arnav? (She signs him not to tell anything about morning...he smiles naughtily at the way she was pleading...)
Archana - Ok fine... good that he told you but why are you gesturing him so weirdly...is there something wrong?
Arnav - No...maa...she is just teasing me...
Sunil - What??... So soon teasing ... good everything settled then (whispers to Arnav) My tips last night helped you fix everything right? (giggles)
