NK offered to accompany Khushi back home, no way on earth he could let this golden chance slip. He really liked her and admired her alot. Khushi was reluctant but having one look of Arnav's jealous face, she was determined to play along. She could make out from Arnav's stare that he really disliked NK. From the first day since she had been introduced to NK, she has watched Arnav going mad whenever they both interacted. She wanted to push him, make him jealous. This was her own way of punishing Arnav for whatever bad he done to her in the past.Giving a teasing smile to Arnav she walked towards the door but only after assuring Bua ji and Amma that she'll b back soon.
NK followed her excitedly but stopped in his steps as he saw Arnav giving him those murderous looks as if warning him to stay away from Khushi. He ignored it n just walked past him to join Khushi and they happily left for the Gupta house.
~~
It had been just half an hour since they'd left but Arnav was getting restless with each passing second. He paced up and down the corridor trying to calm himself but it didnt help. He remembered how NK haad took forever to drop Khushi home after that cocktail party. He didnt fume so much at that time but now it was impossible for him to control himself after witnessing NK looking at Khushi's back in a not so civil manner. All wrong thoughts were coming to his mind n he decided to call khushi to know where is she. He tried her number atleast 10 times before he saw Anjali walking towards him.
'Chote tum Khushi ji ka phone try kar rhe the' she asked trying to look as composed as she could manage whereas inside she was bubling with excitement
'Di woh apna phone aapke paas chod k gayi hai' he asked dejectedly. Worry could b seen all over his face. He was becoming impatient n didnt want to just stand there and wait. He decided to himself go and check everything unless he;d be so damn worried
'Di main jaa k unhe leke aata hun, i dont want k unki wajah se havan mein koi delay ho' he said while hurriedly keeping the phone back in his pocket and not waiting for any response from Anjali. He started moving out towards his car
Anjali saw him going and could see the love and care in his eyes for khushi. With each passing second that Arnav was being restless, she was becoming sure of what she and nani had thought about them.She thanked God that his Chote was finally on the path on Love !

At Gupta house
Khushi had colected the Ghee fro mthe table and was about to leave when NK asked her for a glass of water. She being her ever so helpful self went to the kitchen to bring him one. NK culdnt help but admire her beauty.He had this huge crush on her and wanted to make sure he gets to spend as much time with her as possible even if it meant being late for the hawan. Khushi came back with the glass and NK just took one sip from it leaving khushi a little surprised. He started his usual nonsense chatter when he heard a loud voice from behind. Khushi was shocked to see Arnav there and NK just stopped mid way and looked down to avoid Arnav's glare
He marched towards them, staring continously at NK when khushi sensed the mounting tension n interrupted 'Hum bus wapis aa hi rahe the, aap yahan kyun aye ? '
He grabbed the box of Ghee from khushi and handed it over to NK saying 'Take this home. And tell Di to start with the proceedings, we'll b late' NK gave him a confused look but didnt have guts to ask him any questions, he thought doing what he's been asked to do was the safest option at the moment. 'Bye Khushi ji, come soon' said NK as he walked out
'Lekin...hum bhi aate hain...' she started walking out as well when Arnav grabbed her by the arm, not forcefully, but ever so gently.
'tum kahin nahi jaa rhai Khushi Kumari Gupta'
'Hum jahan chahein jaa sakte hain, hamari marzi, hamara ghar hai' she said the last three words with emphasis
Arnav couldnt help but smirk. Only Khushi Kumari Gupta was capable of giving back Arnav Singh Raizada as good as she gets. He loved this quality of hers, alongwth her innocence, her warn eyes, soft cheeks and those lovely lips he'd regretted tasting that diwali night. But he was the great ASR, he knew how to get what he wanted. He made a mistake once and he was in no mood to repeat that again
'Oh really' he said with a little smile forming on his lips 'Jaakar dikhayo' he pulled her towards him and held her by the waist. His touch made khushi tremble. She shivered and it didnt go unnoticed by Arnav
'Chodiye humein' she said while trying to manage her way out but felt herself colliding with his chest as he moved her closer
'Pehle tumahre sawaal ka jawaab toh de dun k main yahan kyun aaya' he said while moving his lips close to her ear and whispering. His breath was hot and it wasnt making matters any easy for khushi, she was on the verge of melting in his arms but she couldnt afford to do so as the memories of that fateful diwali night were still afresh in her mind. what if this was just another such moment, she couldnt go through the same heart break again
She took a deep breath and said ' humein aap se kisi jawaab ki umeed nhi hai Mr Raizaada...aur waise bhi, kis kis sawaal ka jawaab denge.Kya aap hamare un sawaalon ka jawaab de sakte hain jo humne aapse diwali wali raat pooche the. Humein nahi lagta k The Great Arnav Singh Raizaada mein itni himmat hai k woh apni kamzoriyon ko maan sakein. Maan sakein k us raat jo bhi unhone kiya woh galat tha. Aapko andaaza bhi hai k humein kitni takleef huyi' tears were starting to form in her eyes now ' Aapke liye shayad woh koi badi baat nhi hogi, par us din hamara Dil toota tha' she finished n jerked herself out of his grip and moved away from him. she faced the open window and started crying 'Hum fir se uss dard se nhi guzarna chahte'
Arnav who had been patiently listening to her all this while stood there unmoved. He knew this was coming some day,what he did could never be justified and in a way she was right. Why would she trust a man who has already betrayed her once. He felt a lump in his throat, felt guilty, remorsed and sad at having caused so much pain to her. Tears were in his eyes as well as he accepted his mistake and vowed to correct it
He moved towards her and placed a hand on her shoulder. She didnt move n kept looking out of the window. Arnav slowly turned her towards him and wiped away her tears.
'I know i've hurt u alot khushi. Main woh sab nhi karna chahta tha par jab pehli baar maine khud ko kamzor padte dekha, woh bhi ek ladki k saamne toh main khud pe kaabu paana chahta tha. ye Pyaar aur Emotions ki baatein mujhe kabhi samajh nhi aati, mere liye yeh sirf dard dene ka zariya hai...u make me weak Khushi do u know that...he paused for a moment and continued 'lekin ab mujhe iss se koi problem nhi hai' he said tha n suddenly felt at lack of words
'Mujhe koi problm nhi hai agar tum meri meetings disturb karo, shoes mein juice daalo, mujhe thapaad maro ya fir kiss karo' khushi couldnt beleive what she was hearing ' lekin mujhe fark padta hai jab tum roti ho, jab tum apni koi problm mere saath share nhi karti, jab tum uss NK k saath baat karti ho...' khushi smiled ' i promise i'll never hurt u ever again' he kissed her hands n for a moment she stood still as she realized the guilt in his eyes...he need not say any further. Khushi was happy with the fact that he'd acknowledged their love. 'Their Love' when did she fall in love, she didnt know...the only thing that mattered to her at that moment was that she loved the man standing in front of her
She hugged him, tightly. Arnav smiled and hugged her back. This feeling of being in love was really amazing he thought ! Di has been right through out, if only he wuld've paid heed to her before. but better late than never
Arnav looked at her and continued ' I want u to teach me about Love and feelings Khushi Kumari Gupta, so that main uss ladki k kaabil ban sakun jiska maine dil dukhaya tha. I really want to apologize but i dont know what the right way is and whether she'll forgive me or not ' he said while leaning onto khushi and slowly sliding his arms around her. Khushi put a hand on his chest, motioning him to stop and asked 'Kis ladki ka ?' trying to make him confess properly
Arnav smiled and hugged her close to his chest 'hai ek halwayi, she's the best though mind you'
Khushi giggled and hugged him back 'Laad Governor kahin k' they stayed like that for sometime, both closing their eyes enjoying the moment. they felt complete, finally !!
'I hope tumhe tumhare sawalon k jawaab mil gye' asked Arnav while looking into her eyes. 'yes' she replied and he could see the love she had for him
'Ab main ek sawaal poochon ? '
'Haan poochiye '
'Kya tumne sirf shart k liye mujhe kiss kiya tha ?' He smirked
She blushed and lowered her head. Arnav lifted her chin and asked ' you owe me an answer khushi ' she answered in negative and Arnav tightened his hold around her. pulled her further towards him and kissed her on lips, slowly and gently starting from the corner of her mouth. she automatically put her hands around his neck and reciprocated the kiss. Arnav's hands were travelling all around her body and the sensation was making her crazy. she felt something new arise in her body, responding to each kiss he planted on her neck, throat, jaw n lips...she didnt want to stop but when they were breathless, she took the oppurtunity to ask him 'Ghar pe sab soch rahe honge k hum kahan hain'
'Di already knows...m sure she'll handle' he said while lifting her up in his arms all the while kissing her passiantely and moving towards the bed they'd shared for a brief time at the new year's eve. But this time, it was goin to be longer !
