Jalan (Jealousy)
Hey, so this new OS I wrote when I was bored during theology class! I go to a private school in America so I have to take theology and because I'm not Catholic, I never know what the teacher is talking about! Anyways, enough about me! I would like to give credit to my best friend Saima Khan for naming this OS! Thank you Saima! Now on with it...
Arnav watched as Khushi walked down the stairs in a red sari, his favorite color! She always looked marvelous in red. She took slow steps down the stairs and Arnav felt they were alone in a room full of people. He was staring into her beautiful brown eyes. Her slow steps were making him impatient, but he waited.
When she was finally down he held out his hand which she took instantly. They walked around greeting guest with pleasant smiles. Arnav watched her smiling beside him and he also felt a smile rest on his lips.
"They look great together!" "Match made in Heaven!" "The Perfect Couple!" "They are so cute na!" was all the guests could say. Arnav and Khushi had become the talk of the party that was currently being held at RM! What the guest didn't know was that Arnav and Khushi, behind the perfect couple act, hated each other.
Khushi was suffering day and night while Arnav was completely heart broken. Their marriage had been a contract, just like everything in Arnav's life.
They smiled at each other, it was their disguise because they needed to look like the perfect couple. Although Khushi didn't know why, she played along.
Shyam watched as the two of them ran around the floor arm in arm. He was jealous; he had actually seen them together! They were happy but he was unaware of the fact that he had been tricked by Arnav Singh Raizada and Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada. He saw as they began dancing together, happily, laughing, giggling, and in love.
After a while, a lady walked over to them and put her hand on Khushi's shoulder. She wanted to dance with Arnav and Khushi reluctantly agreed. She went and stood in a corner, watching as the two giggled, she was jealous! Arnav took quick notice and took advantage of the opportunity at hand. He hatched a plan to make her jealous, he didn't know why but he was happy that she was jealous. He kept telling the girl funny jokes to which they giggled and laughed. Khushi, who had had it to the top, stomped angrily to the poolside.
At the poolside, she sat crossed arms, angry at Arnav, "How dare he? Dancing and flirting with that' that'" she was cut off by a familiar voice.
"Khushiji," It was Shyam "Are you okay?"
"Shyamji, please go away! I want to be alone. This is Arnavji's and my personal matter. No one should interfere between husband and wife."
"Khushiji, I just want to talk to you!"
Meanwhile, Arnav was walking to the poolside. He was expecting Khushi to be there as that was where she was able to cry, laugh, and even vent anger out when she didn't want anyone else to know.
"Khushiji, you know you look very good in red. No wonder saale sahib loves red." He began walking closer to her.
She had been ignoring what he was saying until she saw him getting closer. "Shyamji, please go away."
"I will Khushiji, just tell me what I have to do to be with you!"
Khushi was shocked! "Shyamji, I love Arnavji! If you don't stay away from me I will tell everyone your disgusting intentions!"
"What intentions?"
Arnav was listening to their conversation; he was also left shocked at what he heard next.
" Jiji and I both know how cheap you are Shyamji! You got engaged to me, when you were married to Di! She loves you so much, but I can't believe she trusts you so blindly! If you don't leave right now, I will tell Arnavji everything!"
"Go ahead and tell him!"
She turned around to go downstairs to get Arnav but to her surprise he was standing at the door.
"Arnavji, I' I' I need to tell you something."
"It's okay! I know everything now!" He was staring into Shyam's eyes, his eyes were filled with anger and hate.
"Wait, you know?"
"I do now!"
He walked closer to Shyam and clenched his fist, when he was about to punch Shyam in the face Khushi held his arms to stop him.
"Arnavji, there is a party going on downstairs! If someone sees Shyamji like that then people will want answers and what are we going to say? That he was cheating on Di? People raise fingers on the woman no matter who really is at fault! People will doubt both Di and me, you can't do that not until the time is right."
"I don't care about what people say Khushi, he tried to hurt Di and you, he separated us, and he deceived both our families. I can't let all this just happen in front of my eyes and not do anything about it!"
"Chottey is right Khushiji!" the familiar voice scared them all, especially Arnav! It was Anjali!
"Di, aap?" questioned both Arnav and Khushi together.
"I know about Shyam and his intentions for a while! I didn't want to hurt Chottey or anyone else that would have been affected from the truth coming out! I faked the pregnancy when I found out Chottey knew."
"But why? If you Arnav found out you should have just let everyone else find out."
"No Khushiji, there were way too many people involved! I couldn't let that happen."
Shyam and Arnav stood as Anjali began revealing how she found out.
"It was Teej when I first suspected him and from then on time after time Shyam would make excuses to stay away from meeting Khushi and when they finally met, Khushi's engagement broke. The fact that Shyam was so similar to Khushiji's fianc also named Shyam made me extra suspicious. One day when I followed Shyam, I saw him at Khushiji's house and Buaji threw him out. That was when my suspicion was confirmed."
"Di, I'm so sorry you had to suffer all this because of me!" said Khushi with a sad voice.
"It's not your fault, you didn't know."
They hugged and Shyam watched them he felt as he had lost.
Arnav felt guilty for blaming Khushi but he was now more worried about Shyam.
Shyam was plotting to run away when they were entangled with their emotional moment, he began sneaking off only to be caught by Arnav.
He called the cops and began throwing punch after punch until they arrived. By the time they reached the poolside, he was almost unconscious.
Shyam was arrested. Everyone was shocked as they saw him in handcuffs walking down the stairs.
"Khushiji, I love you! Stay away from saale sahib! Or else he will end up just as your babuji!"
When he said that everyone took the hint he was responsible for his state.
Khushi forgived Arnav for falling in Shyam's trap and Anjali got over her broken heart and took everything with a strong attitude. Khushi and Arnav informed the rest of the family and Payal hugged Anjali for being so strong and everyone was happy as they were no longer blinded by his deceiving face and mind.
K, so how was it? I know pretty bad but I'm sorry my mid doesn't work on Fridays!
