Arshi SS: The Tinder Affair | (Part 31 up) | (Blog Link Up!) - Page 60

Arnav practically crashed into the front door in his haste. Running down the corridor, he was about to bound upstairs to his study when he heard the voices issuing from the living room.

He gritted his teeth together. It seemed like they had an unexpected - and unwanted - guest. He wondered who the cockblocker was as he headed towards the door to the living room.

Disappointed Little Arnav gasped in surprise at the sight that awaited him inside.

Beside his slightly embarrassed sister, Khushi was sitting awkwardly on the couch, wearing a white bathrobe that had, evidently, been knotted around her waist in great hurry. His fingers twitched at the sight. Just one gentle pull at the string, he knew, could easily and quickly undo that ill-secured knot...

Anjali cleared her throat as she looked up at Arnav standing in the doorway. Her eyes fell on his very obvious boner and she quickly dropped her gaze, her face growing hot.

"Chote... You're home early," she stammered.

Arnav's eyes widened. Had Anjali seen Khushi in the study? He didn't even want to imagine how that scene would have unfolded. His gaze flew to his wife's who slowly shook her head at him in response to his horrified, questioning look.

Arnav heaved a quiet sigh of relief. Even though Anjali had probably figured way too much of the situation for any of them to be comfortable, at least she hadn't walked in on the scandalous sight in his study. That would have been traumatizing for all of them.

Little Arnav urged him to flee from the tense awkwardness inside the room. But Arnav only told him to pipe down as he made his way to one of the sofas, trying desperately hard to hide his situation'.

"I just..." Anjali looked down at her hands as she tried to speak. "I was just passing by here and thought I'd tell you about the good news. NK proposed to Lavanya a little while ago... And she said yes. They want to get married next month."

Arnav did a double take. "Next month?! But they just met a few days ago! It's way too early!"

"Sometimes, Chote, when it's meant to be, it's okay if it's too early," Anjali replied haughtily.

Arnav shook his head. He was going to have a talk with NK. The guy was nuts. And he needed some sense hammered into him.

"And..." Anjali cleared her throat again. "I want to know what happened. Between the two of you. That day."

Both Arnav and Khushi's faces flooded with colour as they realized which day she was talking about. The day they found out that they'd been talking to each other on Tinder.

"Yes, I know," Anjali said, narrowing her eyes at them. "I know everything. And I hope that you two have cleaned up your mess."

"We have, Di," Khushi said quickly. "It's all good now." She laced and unlaced her fingers repeatedly, blushing furiously.

"Well, that's good," Anjali said gravely, nodding her head. Then her face broke out into a wide grin. "So.. do you think you two are ready to have a baby now?"

Arnav and Khushi nearly choked.
