FF-Strings, Tying Us Together #2 Part 15 Pg101 4/7 - Page 4

Recap: Khushi is staying at Raizada house as Akash's saali since Arnav has selective memory lose so he doesn't remember his marriage with Khushi. Khushi moves to the room right in front of Arnav's room while he reminds her of her contract with AR. Khushi is thrilled that now she has more time to spend with Arnav since Lavanya is not there anymore but ASR calls Lavanya and tells her to be there.

Arnav goes to bed after washing his hands from gardening. Looks like someone has kept my garden clean even when I wasn't here. Good thing. At least I don't pay my workers for nothing. He climbed into bed and automatically reached something but then his mind snapped back into reality.

What the heck am I reaching for? There isn't anything there! Sighing at himself he turned the lights off and lay down on the left side of the bed. Usually he slept on the right side, but for some odd reason he just couldn't sleep on that side today. It felt as if it was't his... Frustrated, he closed his eyes and fell asleep almost immediately, the day's work taking a toll on him.

Arnav had the most rough and best night ever. He was in someone elses' mind, his own mind. He could see everything and feel everything that the Arnav in his dream was seeing and feeling. He dreamt about two loving arms holding his head while he slept on their lap. He could feel the warmth and love radiating from the body, warming him up in his dreams and in real life. It was weird. He was reliving dreams or memories? He wasn't too sure but he didn't question to much since that would ruin the moment.

Soon the scene changed and now he was extending his arm out the bathroom door. He had forgotten his towel once again and was about to yell for his towel when he felt someone hand it to him. He was surprised when instead of the towel, he grabbed the person's hand and pulled them into the bathroom with the towel. He willed himself to look up, to look at the person but his persona refused. The person in his dream, the Arnav in his dream, was too busy looking at the bangles which the person, girl..., woman, was wearing. He watched frustrated as his dream persona kept admiring the bangles and refused to look up.

Before Arnav could question more about the bangles, the scene changed once again. Now he was looking at his laptop muttering something about a file he needed when someone handed up the file from behind him. His dream persona didn't even look up to acknowledge the person who had given him the file and he mentally smacked himself for not caring about his surroundings. He only saw a little bit of the room which showed him that he was in the office before he moved on to a different scene.

Now someone was coming to him slowly while holding on to their saree as they, she, walked towards him and handed him a cup of tea saying that there was no sugar in the tea. The voice he heard did not help one bit in recognizing the person he was talking to. All he could see was the foot of the woman and his tea. He saw himself getting up in rage when the scene once again changed, leaving him banging on the glass door which was separating the dreams from him.

He now sat in a dark room as he thought of the dreams he had had in his dreams. He felt immense feelings towards this person who had helped him but he could not remember who it was... He knew that this person was a girl, a girl who wore a saree occasionally and then a salwaar at other times. The way she held him, talked to him, knew him..., it surprised him completely. It must be Di! Who else knows about my forgetful manners...? But why would I pull Di into the bathroom...? That must have been only one person! Who else would I pull into the bathroom...

He looked around and stared at the clock. It read 7:00 am. I need to get ready... I will deal with this later. Right now I have to get ready or else if that Khushi Kumari Gupta gets ready before me, she will not let me hear the end of it.
