Arnav : Khushi ...
He said in a low sad tone . He is looking at me so helplessly , hurt and confused . His eyes are really moist as if he will cry .
He was about to say something but stopped . He closed his eyes and opened them and again wanted to say something but stopped . He turned around . He fisted his fingers .
He turned around . Now his expressions are changed again . He is again angry .
Arnav : I don't give a damn to that . All I need is you being with me . I've understood one thing today , I can hurt you how much I ever I want because you yourself said that I only gained tears and sorrow from you right ! Now see your world will be changed from now . You will be left with only those tears and sorrow . I have tried my best to keep you happy till now . But from now I will try my level best to hurt you .
Khushi : Whatelse can I expect from You Mr. Raizada ? You are so evil . You yourself said you are a monster . A monster only knows to hurt others . But my Arnav knows how to make people happy and now he is dead . He is no more there for his Khushi .
Arnav : Your not his anymore sweetheart , you are mine now . Only mine . Don't even think that idiot will come back . Never . I'm not gonna let that happen .
Khushi : And I don't want him to come back . I don't want him to see you . I don't want him to see himself as a monster and breakdown for hurting his Khushi . Let him be safe and sound in my heart at least .
Arnav : Oh so you love him !
Khushi : I don't know . But after seeing this side of yours I surely like him very much . I will always remember him after all he is the only person for whom I had such strong feelings .
Arnav : Great !
He again caught my wrist . He took me to the car and made me go inside. He started to drive .
There is full silence in the car. We did steal glances at each other but didn't open our mouth .
He dropped me in home .
Amma : Khushi why are you so pale beta ? What happened there ?
Bua ji : Why aren't you talking ? Wait what is this ? Where are bangles and what is this bandage ?
Khushi : Offo bua ji !! Nothing happened . My bangles broke when I collapsed into the wall . So Arnav aided my wounds .
Amma : Did you thank him ? Beta ?
I passed weak smile . Why does Amma like him so much ? Even bua ji !!
Khushi : Amma , I'm not hungry . I will eat something lite today .
Amma : Ok Khush .
I walked into my room and closed the door behind . I opened what's app and texted jiji .
Khushi : Jiji are you free ? If yes let's video chat ..
Payal : Ok Khush . Jiju is also there . Anything important ?
Khushi : Yup .
Aisha : Hi Masi !!
Said my cute little Aisha . She is looking. So cute in her pink night dress .
Khushi : Hi princess !
Payal : Ayu baby go and sleep . Don't want to be late to school right ?
Aisha : Yes mamma . Good night Maasi . Goodnight papa , goodnight mamma .
Aisha got her good night kiss from us and retarded to sleep .
Payal : Khushi you look so pale ! What happened ? Tell me .
I narrated the whole story to jiji and jiju .
Akaash : I never thought Arnav will turn out to be like this .
Payal : I knew that he is like that from the beginning . But who heard me .
Akaash : But you were the one who told that Arnav should get back his love right !
Payal : It was then when I didn't know that he was the same Arnav whom my sister loved .
Khushi : Jiji , he sounded really dangerous . I'm scared . Please do something .
Akaash : Don't be scared Khushi . He won't hurt you . He was just blackmailing you . So chill . Anyways me and Payal are coming there . Our family planned to celebrate our five years wedding anniversary . So we will sort out everything there . And I have a plan . Go according to it .
Khushi : What ! You are coming here !! I can't believe !! If Amma and bua ji get to know about it they will jump up and down with happiness . See Amma is here , Amma jiji and jiju are coming .
Amma : I already know that !
Khushi : Haww .. You didn't tell me .
Amma : When should I've told you ? You were looking so pale when you came home .
Khushi : But I'm very happy now ! See !
We both side hugged .
Khushi : When are you guys coming ?
Payal : Aisha is going to get a break for 3 weeks from next week . I already applied for the leave . And
Akaash : And I don't have to wait for anyone . You know boss need not ask leave from anyone !
Khushi : So lucky jiju !
We all laughed .
We all went back to sleep .
I have a very big work to do tomorrow .
******NEXT DAY
I woke up early . Someone ringed the bell . I opened the door and saw a middle aged man standing at the door step with a friendly smile .
Man : Aap Khushi ji ho ?
Khushi : Ji .
Happy : Hum Happy Singh . Arnav baba ne Hume yeh Ghadi aapke ghar pouhchaane ke liye kaha tha .
Khushi : Kaunsi Ghadi ?
Happy : Ji yeh waali . Lucknow se .
He pointed towards a car . Hey Devi Mayya ! It is my car !
Khushi : From where did you get these keys ?
I asked him whole he handed my car keys .
Happy : Your Amma informed us that the keys will be in the garage .
Khushi : How did Amma know that I hid the keys there ? Anyways thank you ji for driving all the way form Lucknow to Delhi !
Later I got ready for the office .
Khushi : Amma bye . Bye bua ji .
I waved a big bye to them . Today I'm taking a very big risk which can change my life forever . I got inside my car and drive to the office. I parked my car and Aman too was there in the lot parking his car .
Aman : Hey Khush ! So this is your car .
Khushi : Yeah .
Aman : I heard you rejected Arnav . Why yaar ? I mean .. See you both ..
Khushi : Leave it Aman . Don't wanna talk about it .
Aman : Ok ok . Let's go .
I nodded . We made our way inside . I'm going to miss this place . I first time observed everything related to the office . It is so hi-tech . I placed my id on the device and the door opened .
The office is really huge . I know it is large but I never thought it is so big . Everything needed verification here . Love the way Arnav planned his office .
I went towards Arnav's cabin . I don't know if it right or wrong . But I have to do this .
Khushi : May I come in sir .
Arnav : You know you don't need permission Khushi .
I stepped inside . He is going through a file standing near his couch .
Khushi : I have to tell you something .
Arnav : You are resigning the job right ?
How does he know that ?
Khushi : Yes . Here is my resignation letter .
He shut the file hard and forwarded his hand . I placed. The letter on his hand .
He isn't saying anything . But showing all his anger in his eyes .
Khushi : Bye Arnav .
Arnav : Wait Khushi . I've designed a ghagra for our wedding . Just check and tell me if you want any changes . It lying on the table .
He again started checking the file .
Khushi : I'm not marrying you Arnav .
Arnav : I would have married you now itself but di and Aman said not to force you . I have to accept them because after you it's them who is important for me .
Khushi : At least now you won't come on my way . I can lead a beautiful life because I won't see you from now onwards .
Arnav : Don't live in dreams Khushi . I said I won't force you . I didn't say I'm leaving you . That's next impossible .
Khushi : Everything is possible Arnav . You will leave me .
Arnav : Challenging me ?
Khushi : No . I'm just telling you . One fine day when you will find your true love , you will forget me .
Arnav : Are you kidding me ? Since 8 years I've been loving you and you say this isn't true love ?
Should he even speak of logics even now ? Doesn't he watch movies ? Heroine always says all this to the villain .
Arnav : So I'm a villain !
Khushi : Koi shak ? [ Any doubt ? ]
Arnav : Well in your story this villain is the hero . But he will remain a villain , he will not change like a hero .
Khushi : Great . Ab hum jaa sakte hai ? [ Can I go now ? ]
Arnav : You are asking me ? So the answer is no . Tum abhi nahi jaa sakti [ You can't go now ]
Khushi : Thank you , bye .
I stormed out of his cabin and made my way down to the first floor .
Aman : Why did you resign ? Arnav won't let you go easily .
Khushi : I don't care Aman . I just have to be far away from him .
Aman : Do you think staying away from him will change everything ? Do you ?
Khushi : I don't know . But I have to try .
Aman : Actually Khushi , you do have a point . You didn't love this ASR . You loved Arnav . So you do deserve him .
Khushi : Forget it . Ok then bye . I'm gonna miss this place .
Aman : We are going to miss you .
Khushi : Aww thank u. Bye .
I got out of that place . Now I have to look for a job . How can my family survive ? I opened my mobile phone which I bought along with me . I searched on the net for interview .
I found two . I will attend both of them . Both are quite close to each other .
Boss : So you are Khushi Gupta .
Khushi : Yes sir .
Boss : So you worked in AR !! Impressive !!
Khushi : Yes sir . Thank you .
Boss : But I'm sorry we can't employ you .
Khushi : But why sir ?
Boss : You may leave now .
I left that office . I went to the other one . The same thing happened there . Don't know why NK one wants to employ me .
I drove home .
Khushi : Yes I left that job . I can't work in AR anymore .
Bua ji : Why beta ?
Khushi : Bua ji , no one is good there . I hate everyone there . It is a very bad place . I hate it .
A big lie . I love everyone there and the place too except ASR .
Amma : Arnav is such a good boy . He takes such a good care of you ! When he is your boss , why should you even worry ?
Khushi : Amma did you see Arnav taking care of me ? Do you even know how he behaves with me ? He is very bad .
Bua ji : No . We didn't see him taking care of you . But he is our family member . He is your jiju's brother ! You can't just leave the job like that .
Khushi : Cousin brother . I don't want to discuss anymore . That's it .
Amma : Who will give you job now ?
Khushi : There will be someone who will .
********NEXT DAY
I attended more offices and the same thing happened . I am depressed . My mobile started to ring . I answered the call .
Khushi : Hey Anusha !
Aman : Hey Khush ! I need your help . Will you join my office ?
Khushi : Yeah I will . You know right I'm searching for your job . But why do you need only me ?
Anusha : Umm .. actually Khush my company is at risk . Few employes already started to resign . My boss asked me if I know anyone talented . So I thought of you . Can you come now itself . There are some formalities .
Khushi : Ok .
I went to the office and completed those formalities. I can join form tomorrow .
In the evening , I thought if to celebrate . So I headed to the bakery . I like to walk in these windy winter evenings .
There are only few days for the new year . So the streets are filled with decorations .
Aman : Hey Khush . Umm ..ahh .. Why don't you accept Arnav ?
Khushi : Aman !! What are you doning here ? And you know the answer .
Aman : I came over to talk to you .
Khushi : About your friend !
Aman : Of course .
Khushi : I don't want to .
Aman : Stop it Khushi . You can't say that . You know what all we did for you ?
Khushi : For me ? What did you do for me Aman ?
I askd him folding my hands with a small smile .
I know Arnav did a lot for me but Aman ? Isn't it funny ? Your lover's friend doing so much for you !
Aman : Height exercises . Arnav heard your conversation with your friends . You said you want your guy to be 5-6 inches taller than you . So he started to do height exercises . He only grew 2 inches in Lucknow then . When he came back to Delhi , I accompanied him , you know to encourage him . We engaged in basket ball . We also calculated your height . So he did all the exercises accordingly . See he is 6 inches taller than you !
Khushi : 5 inches .
Aman : No 6 inches . Anyways both are same Khush .
I bursted out laughing . Height exercises ! Seriously !
Aman : Stop laughing Khush ! You don't know how much hardwork we did !
Khushi : And I think I stopped growing my height after 10th . Aman those exercises helped you also ! See you are also taller than me now ! You used to be really shorter than me .
Aman : Yeah .
We both started to laugh out loud.
Aman : Khush Sheetal wants to talk to you .
Khushi : Ok . I'll call her .
Aman : Oh she is calling me . Got to go . Bye .
Khushi : Bye .
I waved him . I went to the bakery . I bought all the junk food and enjoyed with my small family .
*******NEXT DAY
I joined officially in the office today . We started to work out on the new ideas . We need something really big to get opportunities .
Khushi : So guys this is the idea . What do you think about it ?
Anusha : Wonderful !!
Samrat : You have to show this to our boss immediately.
Ridhima : She will fall in love with it .
Khushi : Thank you .
Mrs.Kapoor : Show me your idea Khushi .
Khushi : Yes ma'am .
She is my boss and very friendly . I showed her my idea which I prepared yesterday .
Mrs.Kapoor : Wondeful . I'm sure this will workout . Keep it up Khushi . Thank you Anusha for suggesting your friend .
We passed smiles . Then Anusha and me hugged each other .
We started to think over other ideas too . Three other employees joined with me and everyone's working their level best .
*********AFTER FEW DAYS
Our office took a decent rise , now we have many clients ready . Our office is over now . I am leaving the place with Anusha and Samrat my colleague . I didn't get my car today as Anusha wanted to pick and drop me in her new car .
Samrat : No yaar Khushi , It's not like that . Not everyone is like that ! See me I'm so good .
Anusha : Biggest joke of the century !
Samrat : Anusha , you are really are beautiful .
Anusha : Sach ?
Samrat : Biggest joke of the century !
We three laughed at his meaningless joke .
Samrat : Khushi is beautiful than you .
Khushi : Shut up Samrat !
Samrat : Gulaabi Aankhen Jo Teri Dekhi Sharaabi Yeh Dil Ho Gaya ..
I hit him playfully on his shoulder . We are laughing like mad people .
I felt something in my heart . I can feel his presence . Is Arnav here ? No he can't be .
I turned to my left while laughing at Samrat's another joke .
Yes he is here .
Arnav : Hi Khushi .
He said with a smirk .
I stock still in my place .
