FF : Painful Memories
Chapter Five
Ignorance.
After two weeks.
Arnav and Khushi were just back from their honeymoon.After meeting everyone downstairs and gifting them whatever they bought they were back to their room.
Khushi was excitedly describing where they went how they spent their time in london while everyone was just teasing telling Khushi must be lying and she must have not even got out of her room...(Honeymoon hai bhai chalta hai)
It was night and Khushi realized how tired arnav looked because of the journey..and they came back to their room.They got fresh and khushi was standing near the poolside thinking of the beautiful moments she spent with him.He came and hugged her from behind.
"Enjoyed ?"
"Bohut,..i feel so happy..."
Arnav bend his head and was about to kiss her and then his phone rang..Khushi giggled seeing arnavs irritated face..
Afterall this wasnt the first time...Most of the times phone rang when they are just inches away from kissing.
She giggled more remembering the curses arnav tagged on aman whenever he broke their rabba ves.
Arnav checked his phone.It was still ringing and he saw the caller : "PRIVATE NUMBER".
His face immediatly changed to a serious one.Khushi looked on not understanding why he got serious all of a sudden..
She looked at him and passed a small smile..Arnav too gave her a nervous smile and went outside the room attending the phone..Making sure he only talked after reaching a place where khushi couldnt hear him.
"Speak" He roared into the phone.
***
Khushi still stood by the poolside in deep thoughts.Was Arnav in some kind of tension which he was hiding from her.How his face changed to a serious one..His nervous smile...
Some problem was there.
She knew he was a buisness tycoon and whatall problems they had..she understood.Therefore she decided not to poke her nose and wait for him to tell her the matter on his own.
***
That night Arnav had not come home..From that night Khushi felt something changed.That phonecall..What was it even about??..she didnt know..But that had created a lot of differences..
No..Not between her and arnav..
His general character had changed.He started spending a very little time with family.Not that his love for her had reduced..He did kiss her forehead before going to office...but even at home Arnav was busy..All the time on his laptop or phone..
She guessed that some important deal had come up or his rivals bagged a deal.She had no clue as she was not working in AR anymore..What was the matter.She tried to ask Aman once.He said he too felt the same and that his boss was taking a lot of stress these days.
Khushi feared this would negatively affect his health.She decided to ask arnav what was the matter..It was almost 3 weeks since his weird behavior..He was attentive , concerned , but not as happy cool and romantic as he had been before..Work had taken a toll on him...

Night :-
Khushi came out from the washroom in her night dress and saw him by the poolside chair typing in the laptop angrily and talking to the bluetooth at the same time.
After he abruptly ended the call and closed his eyes in frustration leaning his back on the poolside chair.He felt her hands massaging his forehead soothing his pain.He held her hand and looked at her lovingly.He pulled her and that made her fall into his lap directly.He caressed her face with his thumb.
"I know i'm ignoring you Khushi..But I cant Help it...Something very important has come up..and everything is a mess...I am searching..But i am not finding it..I know i have not been able to give you..."
"Shhh..Hum samahjte hai (I understand)..you have an office to look after..i know..i know that you love me..I know you are with me..thats all i want..its just that i dont want you to ignore your health..this much of stress is not good for you Arnavji.."
He hugged her and she kept caressing his head...He closed his eyes unknowingly and he fell asleep..He drifted to sleep , a peaceful one after so many days...
He forgot all the tensions..everything and everyone who he was trying to search for so many days... Now.. he was just Khushi's Arnavji..

Next morning..
Khushi woke up to find herself on the bed..She remembered how she and he fell asleep in the poolside chair with her on his lap..
She felt so much at peace after that little talk..but him...what about him..he left early morning today..Aaj toh i missed the goodmorning kiss..Naaah..he must have given it when i was asleep.
It was 7:30...Whaat just 7:30..and he left for office not fair arnavji...!!!!
She went and had a bath and came out ready to go down..As she went down and saw everyone..She enquired to anjali about Arnav..Anjali said he left by 7:00 and told to inform you that he had an important meeting..
"Acha di, Did he take his lunch"
"No why??"
"I was thinking ke .."
"Haan haan..afteral you just came back from honeymoon..Go with chote's lunch take yours too and have it together..dont forget candles..make it a candle light lunch..."
Anjali started giggling and teasing Khushi limitlessly..Khushi ran to the kitchen and started preparing for the candle light lunch as anjali had named it...It was just 9 o clock..She didnt talk to him today..and so she dialed his number.It came switched off.She hit her own head...he went for an importand meeting you dumbo..How will he attend the phone..But the meting had to be over by now na?
She called his office and enquired but the reply shocked her.
"Khushi ma'am.Sir is not here..even from the past weeks he only came to attend very important meetings and left soon after that"
She started thinking..What was happening..Akash ji should be aware but then today morning he left for a meeting in USA.And anjali and naani was also preparing to go back to their maternal house...Whom should she be asking this to..Where are you Arnav ji???
***

"I am asking to find a simple person cant you do that???"
"sorry sir...we are trying our best"
"No excuses, I want him to rot in hell..Understood..and this is the only way to do that..Got it...??2 days i give you a last countdown..."
Arnav Singh Raizada roared into those men whom he hired to fulfill his mission..The wounds were not healed yet..His childhood just came back flooding to him and he closed his eyes remembering his parents..
