"Jo hona tha hogaya...ab roke kya faidha...kya rone se..sab kuch teek hojayega..nahi...rone se kuch bhi nahe badlega...Tho mein kyu rovu...amma ..babuji..mujhe chodke chale gaye...jayez hey tho hey...kaunsa maa baap aise harkath seh lenge...ab kya yaha baitke rone se...woh wapas aakar mujhe lechalenge..nahi...phir mein kyu rovu...nahi rovungi mein...kabhi nahi...kabhi nahi..." kushi decided..
she wiped her tears and moved towards arnav room...
"tum mere patni ho..sirf duniya ke saamne...mein tumhe apne patni ka darza kabhi nahi dhoonga..." his words echoed in her mind...
She closed her eyes..burying the burning pain in her heart forever..and moved into the room...
Arnav who was working on his laptop...looked at her..and he continued with his work...as if he does not care about her presence...
kushi entered the room...and glanced the entire room once...She took off all the jewellery...placed it on the table...and silently approached the couch which was in the corner of that room...
"aaj humne bahuth roya...ab aur nahi...devi maiyya...bas yahi ek aaqiri vinathi hey.." she prayed and laid on the couch turning her face away from arnav...
Arnav who was pretending to be working on his laptop...observed each and every step of kushi from the corner of his eye...he sighed in relief when she silently slept on the couch without asking and arguing...
he closed the laptop...and went outside to vent his anger and pain...of betrayal...But as soon as he came outside he saw anjali coming towards his room...he immediately entered the room ..and locked it...apologizing to his di...a thousand times...
he slowly reached his bed...avoiding kushi...he laid on the bed...closing his eyes..trying to forget atleast some pain..that he had been feeling since evening...
Slowly the sleep goddess took these soulmates into her lap...making them to forget all their sorrows and worries ...although for few hrs...
Next day...
Arnav opened his eyes...when bright sun rays fell over his face...."kushi" he whispered and immediately got up from the bed...looking for her...Surprisingly the room was empty...
"kaha gayi hogi..."...he thought and looked in washroom...when she was not there...he started to worry..but soon his worry replaced by a suspicion ..a fear...
"kahi shyam ke paas...."the thought itself made his blood boiled...
he angrily came out of his room...and came down screaming.."kushi..kushi..."
all the family members got shocked when they heard his scream...
nani came to him asking.."chote..kya hui gawa...aap kyu ithna chilla rahe hey?"
"nani..kushi..kaha hey..? he asked..scanning the entire hall for shyam and kushi...
nani got irritated..."chote...woh raath pura apke saath tha..tho aapko patha chalna tha..phir hume kyu puchath rahe ho..." she replied...
arnav shook his head in anger...and walked outside searching and screaming for kushi...When he came outside...he stopped and got shocked when he looked at the scene before him...his eyes widened in shock...his heart beat was fast..he could not believe what he saw...
kushi...standing infront of shyam...holding his collar...with one hand...and a sandal in other hand...she was hitting mercilessly...cursing him..in her lucknow language...and started to kick him inbetween...
"kaminey...saale..ghadhe...janglee suwar..." she was continuous in her flow...shyam was in shocked state...he couldnot analyze the sitaution...kushi was hitting him like a maniac...he then realized what big mistake he did in his life...that day morning...by telling kushi...about the conversation he had with arnav...about her..
he thought he could scare her...but to his shock...everything got changed..he never in his dreams thought of this ferocious side of kushi...with one blow of sandal on his face..shyam came back again to the present...
arnav quickly...reacted..and pulled her away from shyam...saying..."kushi..yeh kya kar rahe ho...." in anger..but in a low voice...
She looked at him in anger...pushed him away..and started kicking and hitting shyam again with sandal...saying.."kaminey...tujhe ithni himmath ki...mujh pe haath lagaeyga..aa..ab haath lagao...saale haathlagao..." she screamed...
"kya keh raha tha...mein tumse pyaar kiya..kab kiya hey...saale..batha...aaj meri haathon mein thu kuthe ki mauth marega...batha...kiya hey mein tumse pyaar.....' kushi continued...
arnav kept looking at her in shock...her ferocious nature shocked him to the core...
she then looked at arnav...
"aur aap...bina pooche..bina soche...mere liye saza bhi tai kardhi...huh..." she asked looking at him with blood red eyes...
"aapne yeh kaise soch liye..ki mein iss gawar..neech kuthe se..pyaar karunga..." she said looking at shyam...
"kushi...mein ne dekha hey..uss din tum terrace pe...inke saath.." arnav barked trying to control his anger...
She then understood..that he saw only a part of their conversation...she also understood that it is of no use in making him understand...when all her trust..and love for him...broke...
"aapko jo sochna hey...soch lijiye...mujhe kuch farq nahi padtha..." she spat in anger looking at arnav..
she then turned to shyam..."aur tum...aaj ke baad..agar teri zubaan pe meri naam bhi aaya...tho tumhe kaatke kuthon ko khila dhunga..."
She then threw her sandal on shyam's face...and started walking towards raizada gate...looking at arnav for one last time...
arnav kept looking at her in shock and pain...when the realization that she was innocent..hit his heart harder...
