Next day he just went to office and in the evening never ventured out of his room. Khushi just saw him entering the house and thought she will wish him once he joins them for tea.But that didn't happen. She had a strange feeling because of not talking to him. The next day Arnav decided to fly to Bangalore on the pretext of meeting a high profile client. Actually Aman mentioned he can handle the issue and Arnav need not bother. But this was a much needed escapade for him. he wanted to be away from her. He knew if he is at home, his legs will automatically follow the path which leads to Khushi. He didn't trust himself when Khushi was around. No amount of self control worked actually. Here in RM Khushi was eager to see him only to be told by Anjali that he is out of town. She really felt miserable.Arnav stayed in Bangalore for the following two days. It was a difficult task for him to convince himself not to fly back home. All he could think of was Khushi Kumari Gupta. All he wanted to do was have a glimpse of that beautiful face. It was a tall order to be away from her but he thought it was for his own good. He had almost picked up the phone to call her and hear her voice. It was a challange for him to let go of that thought.
The day of Sangeet fast approached. Khushi wore a peach lehenga which was a delicate piece of work. It suited her perfectly. She wore minimal accesories which was just a long ear ring.She decided to leave her hair lose with few hairpins here and there.
She wore minimal makeup. While she was bedecking her mind was wandering with thoughts of her LG. She wanted to feel the warmth of his eyes which appreciates her beauty. When she came out of her room, buaji, amma ,Payal and babuji had same reaction. They couldn't stop admiring her. She felt so elated and wanted to reach RM as soon as possible just for one set of eyes. She felt as if her body cells were in sleeping mode and with the gaze of that set of eyes her cells will be rejuvenated. She felt so incomplete from past few days. She never had thought that being away from him will affect her so much. She was longing for his company how much ever bickering they both do. Her heart ached when she thought about him. Suddenly she remembered their Diwali night. She felt miserable thinking about the harsh words that she meant nothing for him. Her existence was nullified by him. But deep in her heart there was a glimmer of hope that she was something in his life because his eyes always told a different story. With these thoughts in her mind she reached RM with her family. As soon as she entered her eyes started wandering for that familiar face. She found him no where. She was greeted by NK. NK was awestruck by her beauty she was looking exquisitely beautiful today he told. He was going on and on about her. Little did she notice that a pair of eyes was watching her from corner of the room. Arnav pangs of jealously reached its peak. He couldn't stand there any more. It had been more than 5 days since he had last seen her. And this scene of her and NK infuriated him and he walked away to his room. He decided to be no part of this evening. All he wanted was to sulk in his room and avoid her at any cost. Strange feeling of betrayal had engulfed him. He didn't understand why and how .It was beyond reasoning for him .
Khushi was searching for him and was soon greeted by Anjali. Anjali said to Khushi how beautiful she is looking and to be watchful because there were lots of eyes on her. Khushi blushed and was also was eager to know where her LG was. Anjali asked Khushi if she can do her a favor and ask Arnav to join the group as the function was about to begin. Relieved to know about Arnav's presence in RM,Kushi happily agreed. She was blissfully unaware of the wrath she was about to receive. She knocked the most familiar door in RM. All she heard was its open. Those 2 words sounded like music to her ears as she had not heard that voice from past 5 days. She entered and saw him sitting on his green chaise working on his laptop. She slowly positioned herself in front of him. She was very eager for that one look. That could have reached her to heaven. He was ignoring her. She cleared her throat. There was no sign of acknowdlegement. She started playing with her bangles. No response. That is when she realized something is wrong in the paradise. She started with casual talk asking him how his trip was. He did not respond. She knew that it was going to be along evening. Slowly she moved close to him and knelt down.S he tried to gain his attention. He had his eyes set on the screen. She asked what's bothering him. It was his brother's Sangeet and all he could think of is work. That was the final nail to the coffin. Arnav lifted his head and Khushi assessed the entire situation. She mustered all the courage she had and asked "Kya Hua". Arnav just got up from the chaise and stared at her for a few seconds. Khushi felt laser sharp eyes penetrating her soul and stirring it. He started how dare you come here and ask me if I am doing fine. She had NK's company and was warming up with him and be least bothered about Arnav. She had humiliated him enough just 5 days ago. And wasn't even bothered to come and apologize. Now since she has found a new toy of interest in the name of NK and being oblivious of other happenings around her. Now she had no rights to be in his room and speak to him. He held her forearm and dragged her to the door. His action broke a couple of Khushi's bangles and it hurt Khushi and she started bleeding. She tried to loosen his grip as she will be in acute pain.
He noticed it and glanced towards the wound. He mumbled Khushi in a soft voice. Khushi was not going let him touch her or forgive him this time as he had hurt her already aching heart. She screamed not to come near her and started off with Nanheji's topic. How could Arnav even think she will be romancing with someone. How did that thought even come in his mind. All she could think of this entire week was him. She could give him the account of every second she had spent this last 5 days thinking about him. Why didn't it matter to him. Everytime this feeling of owning him and coming closer to him raised in her heart ,he had trampled it. She was squashed like a bug every time. She said to him that while she was getting ready this morning all she could think was him. His reaction. His appreciation. Not by words but by mere glance. So much had happened between them and why was he not ready to accept it. Did he mean what he had often said to her that she meant nothing to him? Did he really really mean it. Her heart was not ready to accept it as she always saw something else for her in his eyes. At this very moment all she wanted to do was physically and mentally push him away and run to the farthest place which will be free for her to breathe. It had hurt her so much that she wanted to go away from him forever. Arnav was listening to all this with moistened eyes and clenched fist.
Why does he always hurt her. She started to move away from him. He caught hold of her hand and brought her close enough that he could count her eye lashes. He kept staring at her before he could gather his composure. He absolutely loathed himself at that moment. The very person who he wants to protect is the person whom he hurts the most. Why does it always happen with him. He said Khushi saying sorry is just not enough. He always says and does a thing to her which brings tears in her eyes which he hates to see. He never means what he says to her. It was his defense mechanism in fear of losing her. His experience in life had thought him to not to live by emotions. He was scared of being hurt. Especially when it came to Khushi he couldn't take anything negative. Be it her rejection, someone hurting her, the thought that she will belong to someone and even someone flirting with her. It didn't go well with him. He was never able to conquer that emotions. It always burnt him.He said Khushi being away from you has brought that realization in him of her place in his life. He said he remembered his di's prophecy of him being restless and not able to breathe if that someone special is away from him.
He understood that now. He said he will not be able to leave without her anymore. She meant the world to him. He said her presence in his world was the best thing that has ever happened to him. He may not be a romantic fool but he will make sure that she is always happy. Because seeing tears in her eyes was his worst nightmare and he cannot let that happen. She wells tears from her eyes but it actually bleeds his heart. It breaks his heart into millions of pieces. She completes him. She is the other part of the circle of his life. They complete each other.
He said come what may, he will not leave her stranded ever. He said his heart is not very big like hers to accommodate lots of people. Might be he is a small person as his ego comes in way. But Khushi has already made a special place in his heart and those who enter that chamber will be his forever. He can go to any extent for their happiness. He wanted to be a part of Khushi's life for ever. He noticed those pearl like tears shedding from her eyes. Khushi was unable to comprehend what she was hearing. Was it her dreams. Was he really saying what he is saying. She wanted to pinch herself to make sure it was not a dream. No it was not a dream and it was for real. Arnav Singh Raizada had proposed her. Her dream had come true. Her golden dreams. She hugged him so tight to make sure he was real. He was her Raj kumar and he was real. She hugged him and wanted to feel him as if there was no tomorrow. Arnav slowly repositioned them so that he could see the face he always craves for. It was the most beautiful thing on earth he thought. He bent down and slowly planted a kiss to seal their relationship.And he felt Khushi responding to the kiss . She freed herself and hugged him and said I love you Mr. Arnav Singh Raizada. All Arnav could say was I know. Khushi thought she will wait as long as it takes to hear those words from him as she knew it will take a while for those 3 words to be coming out of her LG mouth.
