ASR's Angry Mode Part 20 on Page 72 (Completed) - Page 21

Arnav felt a relief that at least his sister is back. His stare unknowingly fell on Khushi who is holding a weak smile. His heart ached again thinking that he has brought her home... even though she's unhappy... he convinced himself that his family members will make her happy... But what abot him... will he able to mend her pain. For this he got no answer as only time alone can answer it.

Arnav also noticed that he only is watching her... while she's not at all looking him. He just went to his room. Khushi knew that all the time he's looking her. Khushi breathed in relief as he's not around now. Time went slowly and when it was time for her to go to his room, her fear for him engulfed her again making her more nervous.

Badimaa came to her and held her affectionately. She blinked her eyes calmly as if she understood her fear. Without any choice, Khushi walked with her. When she's nearing his room... Her fear started to increase rapidly. She looked his room which is hers too here after. He was nowhere to be seen. Her breathe went out of her hand.

Badimaa made her to sit in the corner of the bed. She smiled at her and started to leave. "Badimaa..." Khushi called her for the first time. Badimaa felt so happy with her addressing. She can read her fear in her eyes. She came again and cupped her cheeks affectionately. She kissed her forehead and "There's nothing to fear beta... Everything will be okay soon..." saying this with a smile she finally left her alone in his room.

Khushi held the bed in fear. "What if he comes to me... How can I stop him... I couldn't stop him on that day itself... Now..." thinking this she saw her mangalsutra which is dangling around her neck. She touched it and closed her eyes. A tear rolled from her eye. She wiped it and held her palms closely to control her shiver. Arnav felt for her as he's watching everything right from the beginning. He's standing near the pool side. But Khushi didn't know abot his presence.

He can understand what she's going through. He slowly entered in. Khushi was looking the door side for his arrival with heavy breathes. "Khushi..." his calm voice in her sideways made her to jerk a bit. She stood and saw him. She looked here and there not knowing how and when did he came in. He took a step to say something but on seeing her moving back he stood there.

"Khushi... Your things are in the wardrobe... Go and change..." saying this he went out to the pool side again. Khushi looked up and saw him going. She then got that he was there all the time. Slowly she moved and checked the items. She wondered how come everything is there. She thought maybe Badimaa would have arranged it.

After sometime Arnav walked in and saw Khushi in her night dress. He doesn't know why she's looking beautiful in everything. He stared her from head to toe. Watching Khushi in nervous, he cursed his own stare. He then walked towards her to get his blanket. When she sensed him nearing her... she almost fell down in fear. "Khushi..." he didn't expect that. He thought to help her but when he saw her with closed eyes he realized that she's scared of him.

Arnav stood from the couch and came near her. He didn't know why he couldn't control himself seeing her angelic beauty. He slowly leaned near her face. He looked her lips and leaned further to take it as he felt it's his fully. When he's abot to touch her Khushi opened her eyes. She was abot to scream but she stopped seeing Arnav sleeping in the couch. She shook her head and rubbed her eyes. Still he is sleeping there only. She knew that it was her nightmare that too early morning. Slowly sunrays started to peep in.

She thought to get ready and go down before he wakes. When she went down... Nani and others were in the Pooja. She hesitated and stood still. Seeing her Manorama went to her and cupped her cheek "Good morning Khushi..."

Khushi smiled to her saying "Good morning Mamiji". Then Manorama made her to take part in the Pooja. Khushi took blessings from Nani. When she went to Badimaa... Badimaa kissed her forehead. Khushi didn't know why but she felt safe when Badimaa is near. Badimaa already got instant attach to her but after knowing her side story her affection actually increased more and she simply thought Khushi as her daughter.

"Khushi... You are just like our Anjali to us..." Manohar said... for this everyone nodded their head happily. Khushi felt so happy to see such nice people. She smiled really... thinking what's wrong they have done. Then her eyes searched and asked "Anjali..."

"She is the one who will be doing Pooja and all... But now she's not leaving her room..." Nani said sadly with tear filled eyes. Khushi just walked towards her room. She thought... whether she's happy or not... at least she has married the same person who ruined her life. But Anjali... Khushi know abot his brother very well. He's not a human at all.

Khushi was calm right from the beginning due to the environment she has been raised. But she guessed from the atmosphere here... that Anjali was not like her... Anjali must be a lively person... Coz of his brother only she's broken. She decided to bring Anjali back to her normal life. She knocked her door and opened it.

Anjali on seeing her smiled lovely. "Khushi... Come..." She smiled more. Last night Nani has told abot Khushi to her which made Anjali's heart go for her. Anjali forgot abot her and is happy that Khushi got a nice life as her brother is a good human. Though Khushi didn't accept now... In future she will... Anjali had hope in that.

There Arnav woke from his sleep. Automatically his gaze fell on the bed. When he found it empty... He stood and thought where she would have gone. He worried a bit as she didn't like this marriage. He checked the restroom and when it opened he thought to go down and check her first.

"Good morning..." Khushi said with a smile. "Good morning Khushi... you look pretty... Nice dress..." Anjali gestured her to sit with her. Khushi too went and sat. "Thanks Anjali... Badimaa has a great taste..." She praised Badimaa. "Badimaa..." Anjali said doubted. "Yes... she only bought my stuffs na..." now Khushi said confusingly. "Khushi... it was my brother... he has such a great taste... after all he's ASR na..." looking at Khushi's shocked reaction she continued "Nani told me everything... Abot how he himself purchased all..." Anjali was so proud of his brother.

Khushi didn't know what to say. She was totally in shock. "Bhai..." Anjali's voice made her to turn towards the door in a jerk. Arnav who came to check her thought to look in Anjali's room. For a fraction of seconds they both looked at each other. Then Khushi lowered her gaze and turned towards Anjali holding her dress tightly in a fear. Arnav still looked her and then moved his eyes to Anjali. "Bhai... You... In tracks... You always come down after getting ready na..." Anjali was a bit surprised. "Yeah... just came like that..." he covered looking at Khushi who is just hearing their conversation.

Anjali noticed him watching Khushi and smiled. "Okay... I will catch you later..." saying this he rushed to his room. Khushi raised her eyes when he has left and breathed in relief. Anjali can get that she's scared of her brother. She just prayed for them to understand each other and start their life freshly forgetting their bitter past.
