ArHi SS The Marital Affair (Season 2) Chap 2/pg19/Dec 20

She sat on the bed which was beautifully decorated with rose petals, the aroma of which mingled with her continuous deep breaths one after another...She cast her hazel brown eyes across the entire room that was dimly lit with florescent white candles, the heat of which did nothing to aid her shivering heart...Even though the bridal wear was heavy, Khushi still sat with her hands on her knees, glancing at the door from under the pallu every now & then waiting for her husband to come in...The wedding had been tiring for her...perhaps even for him...To be more clearer, the wedding was exhausting for them due to various reasons...

Her thoughts came to a sudden halt when she heard the door opening...Khushi saw her husband---Arnav come in...

As soon as he materialized in front of her, Khushi did away with her pallu revealing her shy face to him...Their eyes met...For a moments, both of them were absolutely blank in terms of what to speak...what to say BUT the very next moment, they frowned hard at each other & looked away!

"You know what, I just don't know how I should express my feelings to you," she frowned.

"Oh that's sad," he smiled sarcastically, "I have been waiting since ages to know what you feel for me,"

"Where did that smartness of yours go when we actually required it?" she narrowed her eyes. "Just goes on to show how foolish you could be."

"Excuse me?? If you haven't noticed it yet, I had made a perfect plan like a perfectionist," he shot back, stepping closer to the bed. "Do I've to remind you that it was you who foiled my plan? Who gave you this bright idea to run away before our wedding rituals??"

Now Khushi wasn't that sort of a nave woman who would take the allegations with her mouth zipped tight. She stood on her knees & trotted to the edge of the bed where he stood. That heavy wedding dress of hers was a serious pain!

"Are you trying to say that we are happily married because of my fault??" she snapped.

"Finally the tube-light is working," he smiled bitterly.

Now Khushi was really furious! She clutched his shervani & pulled him closer...

"Listen, you won't live to breathe the next moment of your life if you put the blame on me when you know you are the culprit here!!"

"Oh really? It's not good to paste your own mistakes on someone else's face!" he freed himself from her, "In the past 48 hours I have done those things & entered those territories which I couldn't have dreamt of & this has happened all because of you!!"

"Oh hello! I was not dancing in some Cinderella land at that time! I was unfortunately your partner-in-crime"

Enraged, both of them once again looked away from each other.

"Ah...Oww!!"

"Now what happened??" she turned to him again in irritation.

"My back! God. I don't know what had come on Mom. Because of her, I had to literally carry you to the room & now I guess I've got a permanent back pain."

"As if I enjoyed being in your arms for whole two minutes and four seconds," Khushi gave a rueful look.

Arnav glared back at her.

"Serves you right, to be honest," she drawled. "Couldn't your lousy legs make an attempt to climb the stairs & walk faster?"

"I would have but look at my bad luck, I had to carry a giant like youand your heavy bridal wear was as good as a rotten cherry on a spoilt cake."

"In other words, you're calling me fat?" she frowned in anger.

"Wait, lemme check," Arnav pretended to think for a second. "Yes."

Khushi was ready to pounce on him! But in that process she lost her balance & was just about to fall off from the bed when Arnav caught her in his arms...

She clutched his shoulders & her eyes locked with his...Arnav then abruptly straightened her & pulled her closer, his hands slipping down to rest on her waist...

"Look, Control yourself. I know I am looking handsome in this shervani but that doesn't mean you throw yourself on me!" he smirked.

That irked her even more! She pierced her nails in his shoulders which made him wince in pain but still he did not let go of her. She attempted to free herself but fell back on the bed & he fell on top of her.

"I still can't believe you are my husband now. This wedding could easily be avoided hadn't it been for your irresponsible attitude," she said scornfully.

"Yeah, Like I was counting seconds to make you my wife," his voice was sarcastic.

Their faces were so close that Khushi was feeling his breaths fanning her face.

"Admit it that everything is your mistake Mr Arnav Singh Raizada!"

"Its bad manner to blame others Ms Khushi Kumari Gupta...oh I mean Mrs Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada!!!!"

"Tell me that the panditji was fake & we are not married after all because I don't wanna be married to you," she said fiercely.

"In that case, tell me that there has been a counting error & we have taken just five pheras instead of the whole seven cause I don't wanna be married to you too ," he snapped.

Arnav got off her & she straightened herself. Both looked away from each other.
