Khushi was sitting in the dinning hall when she saw the phone was ringing, Khushi took the phone in her hand and searched for the button to receive but couldn't find it. She saw Arnav calling but she couldn't receive the call as she never used smart phone, so she had no idea about it. It rang few more times, getting nervous, she started crying. "How to receive the call? Arnav ji, will be worrying about me? What to do? It's your fault Khushi.. You should ask him how to manage..!" Khushi was lost in her thoughts when she heard the door bell, she ran to open the door and saw Madhu standing.
Seeing nervous Khushi, Madhu asked in concern. "Bhabhi.. What happend?"
"Madhu... Woh.. Arnav.. Arnav ji is calling me, but I couldn't..." But before Khushi could complete, Madhu saw Arnav calling in her number.
"Yes bro.." She answered, "Yes, she's here only." Madhu passed the phone to Khushi.
"He.. Hello..!" She stammered.
"What the hell.. I was calling you continuously. Why didn't you pick up the call damn it?" He yelled.
Khushi shierked in fear and looked at Madhu who excused them when Khushi sobbed, "I.. I'm sorry Arnavji.. I was trying to receive your call but I couldn't. I.. I don't know how to use it. I'm sorry."
Hearing her sobbing, Arnav's nerves calm down, "Khushi.. Khushi, stop crying. If you don't know then why don't you tell me?" He asked politely.
"I tried to.. But before I could, you left for office."
Arnav recalled the morning incident and he felt guilty for scolding her without reason, "I'm sorry Khushi. I shouldn't scold you, please forgive me."
"It's okay Arnavji. It was my fault." She sobbed.
"Stop crying Khushi or else I'll scold you again."
Khushi wiped her tears when Arnav asked, "Have you ate anything?"
"No."
"Okay.. Madhu brought lunch for you, have it okay?" He said.
"And you?" She asked.
"I'll have it in office." Khushi nodded, "Now stop nodding, go and have something. You might be hungry." Khushi smiled thinking how could he get to know she was nodding. "... And give the phone to Madhu."
"Okay." She then passed the phone to Madhu.
After that, Madhu and Khushi had the lunch together then as per Arnav's instruction, Madhu learn her how to use the phone, then they set the house together and helped Khushi in making the dinner.

Arnav got out from the car and started walking towards the silent mansion but stopped on his way thinking about Khushi, he again drive back from there.
He rang on the bell and Khushi opened the door. Seeing him she started smiling as she moved aside to let him in. "You didn't sleep?" He asked seeing her bright face.
"No."
"Why? Is everything alright?" He asked in concern.
"Yes.." She replied.
"Then..?" Arnav asked confuse.
"You hadn't come back... so I was..." She said hesitantly.
Arnav looks at her in shock, she had waited up for him?
"Did you have dinner??" She asked him.
"No.. Servant is there.. I'll wake him up and have food." Arnav told her.
"I've made food.." Khushi told him as she looked down hesitantly.
"I'll freshen up and come then." Arnav said with a smile, Khushi nodded.
Khushi was setting the table when she heard the door was opening, with a smile she looked at the direction and her heart dropped to the pit of her stomach. He was standing there in a casual white pant with a orange shirt and with his wet hair he was looking unbelievably hot. Suddenly, her body became aware of him as a man and not just as her husband.
"Close your mouth Khushi.." Arnav said with a smirk as he walked past her. .
"How come your dress is here?" She asked confused.
"I asked Madhu to keep." He replied taking a sit.
Khushi started serving him and sat down to eat.. "You didn't eat yet??" He asked her.
"No.." She shook her head.
"Why??"
I was waiting for you.. But she just couldn't bring herself to say it, so she looked down at her plate.
"Were you waiting for me??" Arnav asked her not willing to drop the subject, Khushi gently nodded.
"You shouldn't do that, sometimes I come really late.."
" wasn't hungry.." She politely said.
"You should eat when you are hungry, Khushi.." Arnav gently told her, she nodded her head in reply.
"Thank you." Arnav told her, Khushi looked up at him confused when he continues "Waiting up for me, for the dinner and staying hungry for me.." Arnav said..
"I'm your wife Arnavji!!" She said smiling, he smiled back.
Khushi was cleaning the table when Arnav said "Do you want my help or do you feel the dishes are not clean till you do it by yourself?"
"I prefer washing it myself.." She replied smiling..
"Oh God!" Arnav said in horror.
"I'll come.." Khushi told him collecting the plates. Arnav watched her walk away then chuckling he walked to the window to smoke.
Fifteen minutes later, Khushi came back to the living room to find it empty. She wondered where he had gone off to. She knew he wouldn't go without telling her.
"Arnavji?"
"Yeah." He called out from the bedroom and Khushi walked towards the bed to find him lying on the bed slightly leaning up on his arms looking through his phone.. Hearing her at the door he looks up. "You ready to go to bed??"
Khushi nodded her head. "Okay.. Lock the door then.." Arnav told her as he kept the phone on the side table.
He was going to sleep here tonight also? Khushi turned to lock the door and started blushing as she locked the door. Then turning off the light she walked towards the bed.
"Khushi?" Arnav called her.
"Humm.." She turned at him.
"I'm sorry, I scold you unnecessary." He apologized looking down.
"It's okay Arnavji. I understand, you were worried about me and that's why you scolded me." She said smiling. 'And you don't know Arnavji, when you care for me, it make me feel so special.' she said under her breathe.
"Did you say something?" He asked, she shook her head with a smile.
"So, did you learn anything from Madhu?" Khushi excitedly show him whatever she learn today.
Arnav smiled seeing her happy.. He was lost in her when she asked, "Let's sleep now??" Arnav shook his head happily and pulling the blanket over them they go to sleep..
