Hello there hope your Dipawali was great and you are safe & healthy with your family as well.

Read your update just now, didn't had any idea a twist could be there containing Shayam and KHUSHI engagement and ARNAV having known about it. Brilliant thinking gotta give you that caught me off guard of storyline there. This update was rather fast after a long time in very short gap then last one. Thanks for that now all I would like to see is how story moves ahead and what and how is Anjali only headed her name but didn't see even a glimpse of her. As well like to see what happens to Shyam now I mean what will ARNAV do.

Here you sure worte up to your promise of this story having more content and the major issue I wrote about in first comment will be dealt with many ways as the story unfolds. I am intrigued now give next update quickly.

Thanks

I had a quiet Diwali this year but it was still great, hope you had a lovely one too.
Thank you ever so much as always your words are kinder than my writing deserves.
This is a story which is very much one that is clear in my mind from start to finish. Maybe not the intricate details of each interaction but certainly the sentiment around each one is fixed in my mind. I always start with Arnav and Khushi and build others around the two. Anjali in all truth isn’t a character I’ve given much thought to.


Hope I can keep writing in a way which is enjoyed by those reading.

Sorry for all the time this is taking !! Will get the next one posted soon as possible ❤️

Promise to be back with this very soon ..

Sorry for the delay in this found it really difficult to find the right interactions for this chapter, hope it goes down well. Thank you for all the love

Chapter 11

“She’s too ashamed to confront you right now.” Jennifer stood in Arnavs room as he starred into oblivion. He’d been sat in his chair for some time now thinking about nothing but his wife.

Jenifer saw the look on his face when she’d explained, a painful sigh had passed through him and it lingered in his eyes.

It was sad but also beautiful to see how much a wife meant to one man.

He shook his head as if he anticipated this “look out for her won’t you” he asks her softly. Jenifers eyes reassure him.

As soon as she leaves Arnav throws his head back in his chair for a moment.

His wife and his sister the two most beautiful women in his life torn because of one man.

He’d made his mind up about what was next.

Reaching for his phone on the coffee table in front of him he dialled a number.

“Aman, - Shyam Manohar Jha”.

.... A couple of mins passed in conversation, Arnav rose from his chair picked up his blazer, circled it around his shoulders and straightened it.

Stepping to leave his room he walks into NK who had wrongly so been listening in.

The eyes of both men meet, Arnavs was a serious yet mellow gaze whilst NKs held a fiery look.

“Let me, she’s my bhabhi”

Arnavs eyes understanding the sentiment puts the palm of his hand on NK shoulder. “You’re needed here” as per ever Arnav spoke in a manner his younger brother couldn’t question.

..

Arnav waited in the car outside of Shyaams law firm. He had the tinted windows of Amans car rolled down.

Whilst he watched from the car Aman entered Shayms firm. Walked up the stairs and into Shyams cabin.

“ASR has a message for you” says Aman with a cold stare.

Shyam per his character plays the friendly charade but is silenced by Amans glare.

He has no choice but to take the phone handed over to him over his desk and stop talking.

“Look outside of the window”, says Arnav from the car In a heavy voice.

Shyam walks over from behind his desk to look out of the window at the black Mercedes and see Arnav in the passenger seat looking at him unforgivably

“I warned you not to cross the line, you ignored me.”

“Leave this city”

“Leave my sister” - Or I’ll make sure you leave this world all together.”

When Shyam looked back into the office he saw Aman throw eviction papers on his desk.

...

“I think he’s he’s got the message” says Aman as he takes a seat back into the car before they drive off.

Not before long they hit a traffic light and and the car waits for a red light. A beggar crosses their path.

Aman takes out his wallet in doing so Arnav happens to see that his friend still carries a picture of Anjali in his wallet. 20 years ago In college was one thing but for it to be there now was another. It only confirmed what Arnav had known over the years was true. Aman despite everything still had feelings for his sister.

He chose not to talk about it there and then, once arriving at Raizada house he was rather keen to get back to his family “come over tomorrow Aman we”ll talk”

...

It was silent within Raizada house.

The lighting more warm and faint coming from behind each room rather than the lounge. Arnav passed the guest room Khushi had been using all day for a moment he contemplated knocking on the door but then continued to walk on.

Entering their room he walked towards the dresser to put down his keys and wallet, glanced up into the mirror for a moment to unbutton a few more fastenings of his white shirt. That is when he hears a voice calling him from afar.

“Sahab” (“Sir”)

Looking into the mirror he sees Khushi stood behind him at some distance.

A sight for sore eyes, he felt a huge weight lifted the moment he saw her stood there.

When he turned around he saw her dart her eyes uncomfortably at his gaze. She continued to punish herself it seemed.

“Since when must called me sir in privacy?” It was a rhetorical question he said something similar every time Khushi would fall Into formality when there was no need.

He watched her stay quiet but instead point her eyes to the right beside her.

Missing from his eye line was little Pari who was holding her Badi mas hand on one side and her teddy in the other.

“Pari ne aap ko bahar jante hue dekha, aap ke ane ka intazaar kar rahi thi” (She saw you leave the house, been waiting up since”) Khushi spoke avoiding his gaze.

He watched them both, Pari who looked up at him with her big brown eyes and smile and Khushi who kept her distance.

He stepped closer to Pari who broke her her hand away from Khushi and climbed until the arms of her bade papa.

She snuggled into his neck and he kissed her on the cheek, “Shouldn’t you be asleep?” He said with warm eyes. Khushi who turns to leave the room feels his wrist around her forearm.

Turning back she watches him let Pari down and step that little bit closer towards her. She looked uncomfortable.

“Look at me” he demanded.

She couldn’t it seemed, there was something stopping her, guilt, shame, fear.

It hurt to see her like this, “I never mentioned it because I knew this is what you’d do to yourself.”

“Maine socha vakt ane par tum mere paas khud aaogi, (I’d hope you’d come to to me when you were ready. Time just beat you to it that’s all Khushi don’t punish yourself for it.”)

She tried to look up at him with tears, the little courage she had even then her eyes darted away looking towards the floor near his feet.

“Maaf kardijiyey” (“forgive me”) she said quietly.

“No” he refused sinking her heart for a second making her meet his gaze

“There is nothing to forgive Khushi” he said strongly, Khushi could only cry and Arnav wrap his arms around her pulling her close to remind her of how much he loved her.
...

Khushi lay in his chest that night wondering whether she deserved such a loving husband.

The next morning Arnav watched Khushi hesitate in going downstairs. She took longer to get ready and he understood why. Purposely walking in from the poolside to the room for her parting from his morning emails. “You Mrs Raizada with those looks are going to give me some beautiful children.” He said seductively with his hands in his pockets close behind her one because he wanted to and two because he wished to distract her.
The red of her saari looked stunning on her. “You want to do that now or shall we wait ” he spoke with a sugary look in his eyes.

“Aap.. ” she said shockingly.

“What ” he said ? feeling her put a hand on his chest to keep a little distance. He watched her go a little red at the cheeks..

“Breakfast“ she says pushing him away gently but also humoured by his sense of spontaneous.

Arnav follows khushi out of the room to find her stood at the top of the staircase. She felt nervous to go down after yesterday. He could see that in her ever since she had woken up this morning.

“Come with me” he said taking her hand into his.

The likes of Pari, Akaash, NK and Jenifer noticed them walk down the staircase together and smiled.

He Next chapter:
“ Khushi se kaho woh is ghar se dur chali jayey” Arnav looked up at his dadi with a uncompromising look.

what is Khushi so ashamed of ? Did she sleep with Shyam and those were the pics Dadi saw ?? But Khushi doesn't seem like the person who would let any man close to her before marriage.........

Dadi is too much, she just wants to spoil the peace of the house with her old pathetic views.....

This will come in the next chapter where Arnav tries to do some work around which part of the whole thing weights Khushi down the most.

Dadi is too much, she just wants to spoil the peace of the house with her old pathetic views..... couldn’t have put it better myself

Thank you for reading and commenting

the silent understanding arnav showed is heartening .

he expected her to come to him on her own..good that he knew whatever had happened in the past...
