~HUMSAFAR~ Bonus Part page 14 - Page 4

Tej nodded keeping his eyes focused on nothing in particular "Kuch toh sochna hoga Rashi...zyada waqt nhi h hmare pass

"Kuch samjh nhi aa rha Daddu...kya kare ki Bhai ko unka pyar realize ho jaye...

"ek tareeka h Tara spoke from behind taking both Rashi and Tej by surprise...Don't act so surprised...I know everything... she sat beside Rashi.

"but how? Rashi asked.

"forget that...it's not importantAbhi important h ki Bhai ko line pr kaise laaye She looked at Tej "Sorry Daddu...par ye sari apki galti h ki Bhai apne aap ko itna high and mighty smjhte h...kisne kha tha itna sir pe chadao unko

Rashi chuckled inwardly...Tej cleared his throat "idea kya h vo btao

Tara nodded "haan toh idea h..Jealousy!

Both of them gave her confused look...

"Aisa nhi h ki Bhai pr kuch asar nhi hua h...He is obviously not liking this change in his life...but he is not going to change his decision because he dislikes Mohan's coffee and he is too proudy to accept he misses Bhabhi...he is never going to accept that not having her around is affecting him...

"and u think if we will make him jealous he will accept everything? Rashi questioned

Tara smirked "Its Bhai we are talking about, Rashi...yaad h kaise bachpan me agr hum unki kisi cheez ko hath lga dete toh voh kitne possessive ho jate the use lekr. Bas jab vo dekhenge he can be replaced in Bhabhi's life...unke sare emotions bhr aa jayenge

"Par hum ye karenge kaise? Bhabhi kbhi nhi manengi Rashi sighed

Tara grinned "toh Bhabhi ko bhi mat btao

2 weeks later

It was usual morning in Singhania mansion...everyone was having their breakfast with Arjun waiting for Arohi to come outside kitchen. Doorbell rang grabbing everyone's attention. Tej, Tara and Rashi exchanged knowing glances.

"Well! Hello everyone an young enthusiastic man entered with a broad smile on his face. While everyone was delighted seeing him, Arjun groaned inwardly totally not happy to see him there.

It was Tej who greeted him first "Jai! What a surprise? moving forward he pulled him in a hug. One by One each family member greeted him.

"Hey Arjun! How are u? he hugged Arjun.

Arjun forced a smile on his face "all good! What are u doing here?

"I am here for a photoshoot...aaj hi aaya hu Mumbai...toh milne aa gya sabse Jai grinned.

Hearing lot of noises from outside Arohi came out holding a tray in her hand. She kept the tray on table and tried to look at the person who has got everyone's attention.

"oh...who is this beautiful lady here? Jai walked towards Arohi with a flirty smile on his face which only irked Arjun more.

"My wife without missing a beat he quickly supplied the info to Jai.

Jai looked at him "ah! Too bad...I wish I had the chance to meet u before

"zyada der nhi hui h abhi Jai Bhai...Arjun Bha aur Bhabhi ka divorce ho rha h Tara chuckled earning a glare from Arjun...

"kyu? he frowned

"It's none of ur business! Arjun said gritting his teeth.

Tej coughed "we should finish our breakfast

Everyone nodded and proceeded towards dining area. Arjun held Tara's hand and stopped her behind.

"What the hell was need to tell Jai about my divorce?

Tara frowned "I didn't know that u were still not telling people...and Anyway in a month everyone will know so what difference does it make she shrugged her shoulders and left from there leaving grumpy Arjun behind.

Later that evening when Arjun came from office he heard some laughter coming from Rashi's room...But there was one sound that felt like music on his ears and like some magic pulled him to itself. The door was ajar so he peeped inside and was greeted by one of the most beautiful sight. He had never Arohi laughing so wholeheartedly. It felt like she had finally put her non-emotional exterior down and let her real self come out. For some unknown reasons his heart fluttered seeing her like that. It gave him so much calmness but all his calmness went to drain when he saw the reason of her beautiful laughter. The reason was none other than 6 foot stupid sitting in front of her with an equally stupid grin. His mood that has lifted listening her laugh became sour again and he left from there.

The next few days were like this. Whenever he returned home he witnessed that stupid Jai roaming around his wife trying to get her attention. And he hated to admit Arohi actually seemed enjoying his company. She also made coffee for him while he had to drink that Mohan's coffee daily. He felt so angry sometimes that he wanted to go right there and punch that Jai in his face but self-control is a big thing!

Arjun was standing near his window when he saw Arohi sitting near pool. And like a moth to flame he found himself going there to her. She was calmly sitting there playing with water and humming some song.

"hey! he said letting her know of his presence.

Arohi smiled at him "aap yahan?

"kyu nhi aa sakta?

"nhi mera vo mtlb nhi tha...aap kbhi yahan aate nhi h isliye

"can I? he said gesturing to sit beside her..

She nodded "sure

"tum yhn kya kar rhi ho? he asked dipping his feet in water.

"Main toh yhn aksar aati hu

Arjun slightly nodded and then there was an awkward silence as he didn't know what to say and Arohi wasn't helping either...but just sitting beside her made him happy.

"toh tumne kya socha h? I mean divorce ke baad?

"I am planning to study further

"okay...If u need any help u can ask me...without any hesitation he said clearing his throat.

Arohi simply nodded with her constant smile.

"u should have...I mean u could have asked for some alimony. Tum chaho toh abhi bhi le skti ho Mujhe koi problem h he added hesitantly not wanting to offend her...

She looked down smilingly "apne bina mange hi bhut kuch de diya.

He frowned looking at her so she continued "mera matlb ye family jo mujhe apki vjh se mili h

And then there was again silence between them.

"bhut der ho gyi h...mujhe jana chahiye she stood up disappointing Arjun..he too stood up "khn jar hi ho?

Arohi smiled amusingly "apne room me

"Arohi he called her from behind "I wanted to ask u something he played with his fingers before finally asking the thing which has been bothering him ever since...why u agreed for divorce so easily? I mean I would need lot of convincing to finally make u agree for divorce.

A calm smile appeared on her face "apne pehli baar kuch manga tha...mna kaise krti and she turned to leave.

"agr maine jaan mang leti ho toh...?

Arohi shook her head smiling at his question and left from there...apne jaan hi toh mangi thi
