Chapter- 15
Arnav and Khushi was walking towards the parking and Arnav was still thinking of her earlier words but he still felt the need to make her understand. He don't know why! "Maybe because they'll be soon married and she'll be his responsibility" that was the reason he gave himself for his protective instincts towards Khushi.
Arnav helped Khushi to sit in car and himself sat on driver seat as he was dropping her home. After driving halfway Arnav decided to break the silence and tell her what he wants.
Arnav: Khushi!
Khushi: Ji (yes)
Arnav: umm... Khushi please don't mind about what I am going to say but I still think you should be more careful, Khushi looked at him confused.
Arnav: Look I agree that you were right about what you said earlier. Mr. Khanna may be a genuine person but you shouldn't believe anyone so early, you don't know how much people can stoop low these days for some money, Khushi sighed, he's still there.
Arnav: I mean ... I know you're smart and ofcourse a wonderful businesswoman (if His family was there they would have been fainted hearing him complimenting someone, he thought inwardly) but being emotionally attached with employees can be harmful.
Khushi: Arnav ji! You're thinking wrong I... Arnav cutts her off
Arnav: No I have seen the atmosphere of your office and you must have seen mine, how much silence is there... This time Khushi cuts him off.
Khushi: Yea! I have seen how boring it was, Arnav looked at her wide eyes but Khushi continued.
Khushi: You know something? When I came to your office for the first time I was shocked to see it all were looking like some book worms or scientists to me who was roaming around with Do not disturb hanging around them.
Arnav who was stopped the car in a side looked at her with expression of shock and surprise.
Khushi: After that I denied Akash ji that I wouldn't be able to work in your office because I can slip to deep slumber anytime with so much silence around ,she chuckled and continued.
Khushi: only than me and Akash ji decided that we'll work from my office. She smilingly turned towards him only to see him looking at her with wide eyes and realised what she was blabbering.
Khushi: Sorry! Actually I got carried away thinking about your office.
Arnav(composing himself): It's ok but I think a professional place should be like this , only than success can be earned.
Khushi: Wrong again!
Arnav: Huh?
Khushi: according to what you said means "My employees doesn't work correctly but my business condition is not too bad either."
Arnav: I... Khushi cuts him.
Khushi: It's ok! But you see there are two ways by which you can get your employees work for you sincerely. First one like you do " Showing anger, strictness, rules etc just like a typical angry boss.
Second one " Like I do making an friendly atmosphere in workplace, understanding their problems, helping each other."
Khushi: Both are opposite ways but do same work but still they have an huge difference between them.
Arnav: Exactly! By second way employees get careless and ignore their work.
Khushi: Let me complete! Arnav signed her to continue.
Khushi: No! You're wrong again. They'll be careless if we don't look after work seriously.
I am not talking about this difference, " In first way or to be more precise your way they'll work but robotically what they've asked , they'll work due to fear and pressure, they can cheat also but in second way they'll work from their heart not because of some fear, they will work because they'll be concerned not only about themselves but the people around them, they'll help peoples around them without any jealousy and the selfishness of competition , they'll think many times before cheating so many peoples" therefore I choose second way.
Khushi: Why to waste so much energy in showing anger, scolding when your work can be done so easily and peacefully and not only this but you get people to stand by you when you need them instead of talking Ill about you on your back, she completed in thoughtful voice and Arnav was again stumped.
-----------------------------------------------
Khushi: And about helping Khanna Uncle and his daughter, I know them personally. His daughter Lavanya was my good friend and classmate in college.
Arnav: You and her in same college? He asked confused again.
Khushi sighed he is really like kid who need explanation if everything, so she turned to explain everything yet again to the "Thick- headed Singh Raizada".
Khushi: Knowing very well that I am adopted by Gupta's , I didn't wanted to pressure them more with my responsibilities so I worked hard abd got admission in best college of India through scholarship, Lavanya was also a bright student so she was also successfull in grabbing the scholarship in same college, and from there our Friendship started.
Khushi: When we were in our last year of Graduation Lavanya got married, coming from middle class family she didn't got the enough chance to deny for marriage or delay it but she completed her last year instead of leaving studies in between and in-Laws didn't objected much.
Arnav: Than what's her husband doing? Why he is not arranging money? Why Mr. Khanna is doing everything?
Khushi(in low voice): I am coming on it.
Khushi: After her marriage everything was going smoothly, she left college but I continued with my Master degree, we used to meet many times. She got the job and she started working at that time I have also started coming to office after my college but when we think everything is going correctly and according to our wishes , destiny strikes. One year ago we got to know that Lavanya is suffering from Cancer, her in-Laws broke relation with her and asked their son to do the same.
We expected Lavanya's husband to support her but looking at the situation he also left Lavanya saying he can't afford to help her in treatment and can't spoil his life and carrier as he had just got the offer of Job in abroad. That was the another shock for Lavanya and she suffered with miscarriage making her condition all the more worse, she was having tears in her eyes remembering everything even Arnav felt bad for her friend.
Arnav side hugged her unconsciously to provide comfort and Khushi continued.
Khushi: I help Uncle because Lavanya and Her father have always treated me like family without any pretense. Lavanya is like Payal to me , where Khanna Uncle is like a father figure whom I have lost long ago. I don't help them actually, I do it for myself because I don't want to loose the two relations I have got who have supported me and cared for me.
Arnav: Shh... Stop crying! I am sorry, I made you remember this.. Please stop crying , so engrossed he was to console her that he missed how he have said Sorry and Please at the same time which he never says to anyone except his DI.
So basically, today Arnav Singh Raizada have did something he never does Complementing, Saying Sorry and Please and now trying to console a crying girl in his arms , Thank god no one who knows him didn't saw it otherwise they would have been suffered a heart attack.😉
