ARSHI SS : NEVER TOO LATE [PART-2]

Looking up at the clock in the living room, Khushi felt more dejected then ever seeing the clock showed past 10. Her heart pained knowing Arnav deliberately staying at the office today just to punish her for the mistake she had never committed. Today was her first Karvachuath. Like the dutiful wife Khushi had fast for his long life and was waiting for her husband to return home to break her fast. She did not want to let go of the chance to break her fast by him, when she was not sure whether I would able to break her fast by him next year; then how could she let go of this chance.






Anjali and Nani were furious thinking how could Arnav give his importance his work than his work than wife and that too when she had fast for his long life.



Anjali "Khushi ji, please break your fast seeing Chotte's photo"
Nani "Ha Khushi Bitiya break your fast now it's too late"



Despit of Anjali and Nani's suggestion to look at Arnav's photo to break her fast, Khushi determined that her husband would be the one to break her fast even if she had to wait into the late hours of the night to achieve that then so be it "No I Nani ji, I will be wait for Arnav ji"



Anjali angrily "Khushi ji you are keeping this fast for the only person who give his importance his work than his work than wife and that too when she had fast for his long life. I asked you not to keep fast for him but you're stubborn like Chotte did not listen to me"

Khushi "You know na Di don't believe in all this. Also he don't know I have kept fast for him.If he had known before then he would have never let me fast for him" smiled at her hiding her tears.

Anjali Cupped Khushi's cheeks "I don't know how much Chotte loves you but you love him a lot. My Chotte is very much lucky to get such a loveable wife for himself"

Khushi "No Di Arnav ji loves me lot more than I love him but don't show it in front of everyone. He is not what he shown himself to others. He fulfill my every wish before it came out from my mouth. Arnav ji loves me so much that I'm afraid to lose him and life after him. If it ever happen, I'll die" composed herself "Di I'm going to my room"





Khushi left for her room.




Khushi in room sat on his lounger and holding Arnav's photo to her heart and started crying "Arnav ji you hate me so much that you did not want to come home to break my fast but Arnav ji I will wait for you"



I know everything about you and your so called lover Shyam Monahar Jha. Your lover said to me all how my Di is the only person standing in between you both. I know girls like you will do anything to trap rich man which is why you went behind a married man like Shyam Manohar Jha






Khushi closed her eyes remembering what Arnav told her on her wedding day.





Arnav had seen Shyam and her together and he had misunderstood whatever he had heard. What was worse was Shyam had confessed on them having affair. He had married Khushi to save his Di's marriage thinking marking Khushi as his own, Shyam would back off from her.





In these five months Khushi had tried so many times her best to make Arnav understand but Arnav had completely refused. He blamed her for everything. Khushi could see that every time he hurt her, the pain she felt, it was reflected in his eyes. She knew he dint want to hurt her but his love for his Di made him do so. He used to pretend to be in love with her in front of his family, especially in front of Shyam. She knew that he was somewhere jealous of the fact that she may love Shyam however all Khushi wanted to do was scream that she loved him not Shyam. Khushi had never lost hope in her husband as she had definitely seen the love in his eyes for her. Yet, she couldn't blame him for the hatred he portrayed towards her. Afterall, she should have confided this truth with him. And deep inside, she started blaming herself for it. Khushi had taken in on silently vowing to prove to Arnav that she was telling the truth. She believed that time would eventually heal their wounds and everything would be back to normal.

The weather was very rough outside. It was raining heavily but this was nothing to compare the storm which was happening inside Arnav Singh Raizada's. He slumped on the door of his white SUV and let his tears mix with the rain. He let out a loud 'ARRRGGGHHH' echoed into the empty street although even that did not help him feel better.

He could not believe that he had ever doubted Khushi HIS Khushi. He didn't even know if he had a right to call her his anymore not after what he had done. He closed his eyes in regret remembering what she said in their wedding day.

Please believe me Arnav ji, I don't love Shyam. I just hate Shyam Monahar Jha. I just hate him Arnav ji.

Why!? Why did he do what he did? Why did he not trust her? Why did he never give her a chance to explain herself? Why did he not trust his heart but trusted what he saw? Why? Why? Why? She was innocent the whole time she was innocent. She didn't deserve to be treated like this. How can he be so cruel? He always saw that in her eyes which his heart wanted to believe because deep down he knew in his heart Khushi could not be involved with Shyam, she could not stoop so low but then memories of Shyam and Khushi hugging each other flooded his mind; he himself heard from vile mouth about his web of lies about Shyam and Khushi's fake love life which in no way is true. Arnav lost his sense of rationality. He had loved Khushi, but the hate towards her for betraying his Di and him, which she had never done, had somehow overpowered his love for her. Arnav Singh Raizada being a blind fool believed Shyam Manohar Jha and hurted Khushi an innocent soul . That Poor girl, she accepted every decision of his and he didn't make it easy on her. He regretted his every word, his every action he had done to Khushi. He had broken every promise that he had taken with her in the seven pheres.

He had again made her orphan marrying her even Payal never talked to her. He knew all were disappointment for his sudden marriage but no one spoke a word against him or questioned him yet he could see they were not satisfied with what they had received in an answer. He used to pretend to be in love with her in front of his family, especially in front of Shyam. But when Khushi was trying really hard to make things work between them in these five months of their marriage and to convince him about her innocence every time, he had even believed her for a moment. But next moment in his anger, suspicion and elephant sized ego had not let him listen to his heart. He had made these five months hell for her. He had rebuked her, man handled her, blamed her for everything in the four walls of their room and she had taken it without complaining when all along it had been Shyam who had been lusting after his wife. She had kept her promise after receiving his ruthless and cold behavior.

I will do everything what you will ask me to do

He closed his eyes in regret what happened in office few hours ago. He was in his office when he got a call from NK.

NK "Hello Nanav, I have something inform you''

Arnav shocked "To me ? Please NK make it shorter, especially if it's urgent"

NK "it's urgent"

Arnav "Well if so, it has to be URGENT then I'm listening. So tell me"

NK "I am sending a clip to your mail. You would not believe he the true face of Jijaji. He is not what he shows. He does not love Di. He is not only playing with Di's emotion also ours emotions"

Arnav "Ok send me NK"

After sometimes he got mail from NK. He opened the mail and he shocked to see what he saw. It contained whole terrace scene. Shyam was narrating how he had sent his men to harass Khushi in Lucknow; then he came to save her and all the things he did after that to chase her; everything up to the false engagement. Then came Khushi screaming at Shyam "THEN LEAVE ANJALI"

Arnav winced in pain but what came next shook him hard when he heard Khushi to say "BECAUSE ANJALI JI DOEST NOT DESERVE VILE LIKE YOU SHYAM MONAHAR JHA. SHE DESERVES A BETTER MAN WHO LOVES ALSO RESPECT HER TRULY.IF YOU ARE THINKING IF YOU LEAVE ANJALI JI, I WILL MARRY YOU THEN YOU ARE WRONG SHYAM MONAHAR JHA. I WILL NEVER MARRY YOU"

Shyam "Why can't you marry me Khushi Ji. I love you"

Khushi "BUT I DON'T LOVE YOU ALSO I WILL NEVER LOVE YOU"

Shyam "You love Arnav are not you Khushi ji ? I know you love Arnav, I can see your love when you look at him, but when it is me, and you always give me disgusted look. Why Khushiji? What does Arnav have that I don't have? For what reason you love Arnav not me?"

Khushi "WHY SHOULD I ANSWER YOU ? I LOVE ARNAV JI, AND ONLY HIM"
