'What? Your coming here now?' Khushi shouted down the phone to Arnav.
'Yes I am, You know how I can't go to sleep without seeing your face. Im not used to this jaanu' Arnav replied. Khushi could imagine him pouting over the phone. The image of him melted her heart and so she decided to let him come.
'Aww baby, even im not used to sleeping without you, but kya kare, I had to come to amma and bauji's house, because it is my cousins wedding and they are going to her wedding and told me to come for the night and stay with buaji, because she's not feeling well' Khushi explained.
'So are you giving me permission to come then?' he asked with traces of hope.
Khushi smiled. 'Yes baba, and since when have you ever needed my permission to do something. I know you, you'd still have come even if I say no' she said to him. She could hear him chuckling over the phone.
'Aww jaanu, you seriously know me too well, right I'll be there in a bit, bye' and with that he cut the phone off.
Khushi went to the window and looked out at the sky trying to find her mother and father. It wasn't long before she saw two twinkling stars shining at her.
'See amma,bauji, he cares so much for me, and I know why the real reason he's coming here, its because he doesn't want me to sleep alone, because he knows I hate the dark and since payal jiji is at home with Akash he's coming here to be with me, I know I am so lucky to have someone like him in my life' she told her mother and father.
She heard her phone ring and went to go pick it up.
'I'm outside Khushi open the door.' He said to her.
'Coming' she replied and cut the call.
She went to the living room, and found that buaji had gone to her room to sleep. She opened the door, to see her husband standing in all his glory. She pulled him inside and closed the door from behind. She looked back at him and hugged him with all her might. He returned the hug equally, bringing his face into her hair.
'I missed you' he said into her hair leaving a kiss on the top of her head.
'I missed you too, my lard governar' she said into his neck.
He laughed at her. Before he used to be irritated by this name, but now he loved it, as this is the name that Khushi uses out of love.
They came out of their little world, when they heard footsteps coming from buaji's room. Arnav and Khushi both looked at each other, thinking of what to do.
Khushi looked around and quickly pulled Arnav into her room.
'Stay here' she ordered him while making him sit down on the bed.
She then heard buaji come towards her door
'Eh sanka devi, darwasa kolo' buaji said.
Khushi looked at the door and then at Arnav wide eyed. Clueless as to what she should do.
'Arnav, quickly lay down and put the blanket on top of you' she whispered to him. Arnav did what he was told and then felt himself being loaded with a heavy load.
'What are you doing?' he whispered
'Nothing, just trust me' Khushi replied.
'Eh sanka devi, kolo na!' buaji shouted
Khushi ran to the door, and quickly opened the door, she had a towel in her hand to make it out that she was in the bathroom.
'Kya hai buaji' she said.
Buaji was looking around in the room trying to find something or someone.
'sanka devi why did you take a long time in opening the door hmm' she questioned Khushi.
'Oh buaji, I was in the bathroom that's why and when I heard you I came out' khushi explained.
She could see buaji was looking for someone and so she decided to divert her attention.
'Buaji why did you call me?, any work?' she asked.
'Oh ha , I wanted you to call your amma and bauji to see if they have reached safely' buaji replied.
'buaji amma and bauji have reached, they called me a while back, and I thought you were sleeping so I didn't tell you' Khushi explained while looking towards the bed.
'Oh alright' buaji was going and khushi was about to close the door, when buaji turned around again.
'Aree khushi what is on the bed?' buaji asked.
'what do you mean buaji, it is duvets,I was cleaning the cupboards' khushi replied nervously.
'oh okay you should do this work in the daytime not night but I am going now' buaji said and off she went. Khushi closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief. She then went to Arnav and quickly took all the duvets off him. He quickly got up and sat down on the bed coughing breathing in air. Khushi rubbed his back.
'See this is why I say don't come here' Khushi said
'Aree. Khushi this is nothing, I came here to spend time with my beautiful wife' Arnav said while grabbing Khushis hand to hold.
He then lay down on the bed dragging Khushi with him.
Khushi looked at Arnav's face and could see dark circles under his eyes. She traced the circles with her fingers.
'You look tired. Have a rough day at work?' she asked
'Hmm' Arnav replied and closed his eyes. He kept Khushi close to him and tightened his hold on her waist.
'And all I want to do now is, lay down with my wife and go to sleep with her' He replied.
Khushi kept her head on his chest.
'But how can you stay here?' she said while bringing her head up to see him.
He opened his eyes. 'Khushi don't worry everythings sorted, I have set an alarm on my phone for the morning and I will leave early before buaji wakes up and about home I have told Akash that I am coming here so he can handle it from there' he explained.
Khushi smiled and lay her head on his chest and both went into a peaceful sleep.
Here it is. Hope you liked it.
