OS:Pyaar toh bas ho jaatha hai! Part1,2,3 updated

Situation : Arnav still doesnt know Khushi's innocence though he has several clues to doubt his thinking. Shyam is away for some official tour and so he is not all that angry towards Khushi now.

Khushi came running down from the stairs very excitedly calling out "Jiji... Jiji"

All the other Raizada members(except Arnav and Akash) were relaxing in the hall. Khushi came near Payal and was gasping for breadth.

Payal : Kya baat hai Khushi? Aisa bhaag ke kyun aa rahi hai?(whats the matter khushi? Why are you coming so hurriedly??)

Khushi : Hume ab ek khaas shaks se phone pe baat hui. Batao kaun??? (I have just spoke to a special person on phone. Guess who??)

P : Phone pe? Kaun ho saktha hai... Hume patha nahi. Tum hi batao na Khushi (Who can it be!!?!?! I dont know... You itself tell no khushi)

Anjali : Arre Khushiji batayiye na. Aisa kaun tha? hum bhi sun ne ke liye bohot uthavli ho rahe hain :D ( Arre Khushi please tell nah. We are also very excited to hear who that person is)

K(excitedly to payal) : Shraddha chaachi!!!!

P and K are all in smiles
K (to the others) : Jab hum Lucknow me the, tab humare padosi the Shraddha chachi, Jai Chacha aur unki dho bacche. Woh bhi koi rishtedaar se kam nahi the. Bohot masti karthe the hum un logo ke saath. Wok koi kaam ke liye dilli aaye hai aur Buaji se unhone humara number li.Itne din ho gaye kitni saari baathe karni thi hume, achanak unki phone aayi humari bolthi hi bandh ho gayi. Unhone kaha hai ki humse milne aayenge thodi der me hi. :D
(The sisters hug each other excitedly)

Anjali : hmmm... Arre wah! Sun ne me tho lagtha hai ki aap ki dil ki bohot kareeb hain. Tab tho khaana mithaai kuch tho khaas banana padega.

Nani : Theek kahthi ho Anjali bitiya. Ek baat tho woh bhi lucknow waale hain. Aur dhoosri baat, hum ko bhi tho dhikana padega na ki unki Khushi aur Payal ki sasural kaise hain??

The entire family is set for preparations...
Shortly, The door bell rings and the guests arrive...

K and P get the blessings and give a tight hug to chacha and chachi. All are very exicted to see each other. Khushi introduces Anjali, Nani, Mami and mama to them and they settle down in the hall. HP brings tea for them.

K : Armaan aur Puneet kahan hai chaachi??

Chaachi (Will be called Chi from now :P) : Aa rahe hain beta. Bas paanch minute mein aa jayenge. Ab tum dhono batao. Shaadhi shudha life kaise chal rahi. Hume tho yakeen hi nahi ho raha hai ki humari pariyon ki shaadhi ho gayi.

Anjali : Ek baat tho theek kaha aapne. Yeh dhono tho sach me humaari ghar ki pariyaan hai :) inki aane ke baad toh aisa kag raha hai jaisa sab kuch theek ho gaya.
P and K exchange shy looks.

Chi (acts as if whispering to Anjali) : Koi baat nahi anjali ji. Hum bura thodi manenge. Aap sach keh sakthe hai ki aap sirf payal ke baare me keh rahi thi. Khushi ki nautanki ke baare me hum achi tarah se jaan the hai. Hume andhaaza hai ki aap logon ko kitna pareshaan kar rahi hogi ;)

K : 😲😲😲

All laugh.
Anjali : Khushi ji tho is ghar me sabse acche hain. Kabhi kabhi yakeen hi nahi hotha ki aisa bhi log hothe hain.

K to chi : Dhekha aapne!!!

Chacha (Will be called cha from now :P) :Acha baba. yeh sab baathe chodo tum dono ka raaj kumaar kahan hai?? Humse bhi tho milvadho.

P gives a shy smile and K gives a little lost smile.
Correctly Arnav and Akash enter together, and reach the hall.

Chi : "(pointing to Akash) aap payal ki rajkumar honge aur aap (pointing to arnav) khushi ki rakjumar. Hai na??"

A and K share a brief eye lock. Then Arnav and akash glance at each other confused.
K stands up and introduces them.
Chi to Arnav : Aap ki himmath ki tho salaam dene padegi hume. Khushi se shaadhi jo ki hai aapne.

All laugh. k and A exchange another quick glance.
Chi (continues) : Kahin isne dhamki tho nahi dhi aapko???

K : 😲 (mumbles to herself looking at Arnav) Haan haan humne hi dhamki dhi. (sarcastically)
Arnav tries to hide a small smile at the corner of his lips.
Just then, the 2 kids arrive.Armaan was around 13 and puneet was about 10 yrs old.

K and P run to them. P first embraces Armaan while Khushi high-fives with Puneet. Then Payal turns to puneet and Khushi excitedly gives a high-fi to Armaan who does not return it back.

K : Arre Armaan itne din baad mil rahe hain. hum tho kabse aap dhono ka intezaar kar rahe hain. Aur aap. Humse aankh bhi nahi mil rahe hai theek tarah se.

Armaan : Bas kijiye khushi didi . Aap utne acche nahi hain jitna aap dhikthe hain.

K : :O Arre par kyun? Meine kya kiya?

Armaan : Aapne kaha tha ki aap humse shaadhi karenge. Hum bhi kitna wait kar rahe the ki kab hum 20 ho jayenge aur kab aapse shaadhi karnge. par aap tho usse pehle hi mujhe dhokha de diya.

Everybody smiles going "Awww... " except Arnav, who cannot even for name-sake give up Khushi for someone else, not even a kid.

K : Acccha tho yeh baat hai. Par Armaan. Humne mana kab ki? (in a silent tone) Ab bhi toh wohi keh rahe hain!! Hum pakka aapse shaadhi karenge ;) ;)

Arnav's mind : What the!!!

Armaan : (Comes closer) Sacchi??? Toh aapki pati??

K : Hum dhono milke unhe ullu bana dhenge. (Brings up her hand)

Armaan : (Shakes hand) Tab toh theek hai . :D

K and P take them towards the hall. Arnav is all the whle glaring at Khushi (possessiveness + a little angry + a little irritated). K notices the glare while crossing him and looks away quickly unknowing how to react.

The raizadas and the guests then settle down for a happy meal. They do a lot of chit-chatting. A and K keep stealing glances throughout.

PRECAP :
Arnav is all flustered. To himself in his mind :"Patha nahi ab usse mujhe chod ke (realises)... I mean ghar jaane ki kya zaroorat hai"

Comments please 😃 Will post the 2nd part shortly 😃

ausome please do continue

Later,
Chachi : Accha ji, Ab hume nikalna chahiye.
Anjali ji : Arre , yeh kaise baat hui. Itne din baad aapki pariyon se mil rahe hai aur itne jaldi nikal rahe hain??
Armaan : Haan amma! Maine abhi tak khushi didi se baathe hi nahi ki! :(
Chachi : Ab yeh dhono toh shaadhi shudha ho gayi. Pehle ki tarah nahi rahi. Khudh ki ghar chalathe hain na. Toh hume thang nahi karna chahiye. Phone pe deer saari baathe kar lo tum. mm??
Nani : arre mehmaan ki aana kabhi thang hoath nahi hai. Agar aap rukh jaathe tho khushi aur payal bitiya ko bhi accha lagegi.
Cha : Arre yeh tho aap logon ki badappan hai. Par yeh humaari betiyon ki sasuraal hai. Aisa rukh tho nahi jaathi na.
Anjali : Par...
chi : Aur upar se humne madhumathi ji se waadha ki hai ki aaj ki din unki ghar me rukhengi. woh tho intezaar kar rahi hongi... par haan! Agar Payal aur Khushi bhi humaare saath aaye 2 din ke liye tho...
Anjali and Nani exchange looks...
Aakash is a little glum. Arnav clentches his fist.
Armaan and Puneet : Haan haan! Didi please aap log bhi aa jao.
Chi (seeing Anjali and Nani) : Hum zabardasthi nahi kar rahe hain. Agar koi problem ho tho rehne dhijiye.
Anjali : Arre nahi nahi. Hum toh bas yeh soch rahe the ki in dhono ke bina humaari ghar kaise rahegi. Woh kya hai na, yeh dhono toh humare ghar me itna dhal gaye ki , hume khudh yakeen nahi ho rahi hai ki hum itne saal inki bina kaise rethe the! (affectionate smile towards K and P) Par haan. hume bhi lagtha hai ki aapko in dhono ko le jaana chahiye. Waise bhi yeh dhono bhi apne maayke gaye hua bohot din ho gaye. (Turns to confirm with nani. Nani gives an assuring smile.)
Nani to K and P : Aap dono saaman bandh lijiye bitiya. 2 din wahan rukh jayiyega. Aap ko bhi accha lagegi.
K and P echange looks : Ji naniji. (Disperse to their rooms)
Akasha follows payal to help her.
Arnav is all flustered. To himself in his mind :"Patha nahi ab usse mujhe chod ke (realises)... I mean ghar jaane ki kya zaroorat hai"
Arnav goes to his room. He sees Khushi with Armaan helping her out. Now he offically hates that Kid more than anybody else.

A : Khushi mujhe tumse baat karni hai.
Armaan : Batayiye na Jiju. (Winks at Khushi and whispers to her). didi Sautan ki male form kya hotha hai??
K (nervously looks at Arnav staring at her) to Armaan : Armaan tum neeche jaake Chachi se kaho ki hum 5 min me aa jayenge.
Armaan leaves.
A : Samajthi kya ho tum apni aap ko? Ab achanak aise kaise nikal sakthi ho tum?? (blurting out without thinking)
K : Ji... Hum samjhe nahi.
A realises : Tum dhono chali jaogi toh ghar ka saara kaam kaun karega?? Di karke baitegi.
(He was impressed with himself by the way this thought came up to him spontaneously)
K : nahi ARnavji. humne HP se keh diya hai ki kal ke liye kya kya karna hai. Di ko kuch bhi karne ki zaroorat nahi padegi.
A (Getting a little angry) : Hp kitchen sambhal dhega. baaki sab? Dhekho khushi tume jaane ki koi zaroorat nahi.
K : Arre aap humari baat toh suniye. Poore ghar ki saaf safayi kal hi hui hai. Dhobi ko bhi humne kapde de di hai. Waise toh karne ke liye koi kaam bacha hi nahi hai.
A (looking around) : Yeh room dhekho. Yahan wahan sab pada hai. Aur tum keh rahi ho ki saaf safayi ho gayi?
K looks around. It was almost neat except for few of Arnav's files, his coffe mug and his plant cutter were a little scattered.
K : Accha aap rukhiye hum paanch minute me yeh sab saaf karke niklenge.
She dint wait for his reply she started arrnaging the things.
Arnav sat down in the recliner very disturbed unable to take his eyes off her. He desperately wanted her to stay, he dint know why.
Just when she was done, she was about to open her mouth to Arnav,
A : Mujhe ek cup chai chahiye. (immediately looked away into a file)
K : Is samay pe? Aap toh kabhi chai peethe nahi
A looks up and stares at her
K : Accha accha laathe hain.
K mumbling to herself "yeh laad governer ko yeh sab humse ab hi karvana tha kya?"
K brings tea : Aapki chai... Aur kuch aapko chahiye??
A (without looking at her) : mere dawaai ka pouch kahan pe hai? Bahar rakho use.
K thinking "Inhe kya ho gaya hai. Yeh sab humse kyun poocha rahe hai" She opens the draw and takes the pouch and keeps it on the table before him.
A : Mere car ki chabiyan kal meine kahi rakhi thi room pe. Mujhe mil nahi raha hai. Tum dhoondh nikalo.
K : (starts to look around) ghoom kaise ko sakthi hai. Yaheen pe hogi.
A looks at her all the while without blinking.
K bent down to search under the recliner where Arnav was sitting. While doing so, she places her hands on Arnav's knee for her support. Arnav looked at her hand and then at her. He was lost all over again. rabba veee...

Finally after 5 min search K found the keys in the cupboard itself and she brought it to him.
K : Aap bhi na? Shelf pe hi tho tha? Aur hum tho poore room dhoond rahe the.
Arnav takes the key thinking what to do.
K : Ab hum chale?
Arnav stood up and Before he could respond, Armaan came at the door.
Armaan : Didi jaldi karo na? Aapne 5 min kaha aur ab bees min se bhi zyaada ho gaya. Mein aapki bag le jaatha hoon aap aayiye jaldi.
He took her bag and ran out.
K and A look at each other.
A had put up a stern face outside but his eyes were giving him up by silently asking her to stay.
K felt really different. She felt some kind of invisible force that was pulling her towards him. Something strong whispering her to stay back. She was lost in his deep brown eyes. And so was he.
After a minute, K breaks eye contact and slowly moves a little backward
K : h..h..hum chalthe hain.
A continues to stare without any response to her statement.
K walks out of the door throwing glances at her husband after evry step. She keeps every step slowly towards the entrance. He was the one man in the whole universe, who could make her feel this way, whom she could forgive any number of times, for whose love she could sacrifise anything, she could do anything to bring up a smile in his face... and... a slightest sign from his side that he loves her, is all that she is living for.
Aakash was to drop them at the Gupta's. Before getting up the car K and P bade evrybody bye and Khushi shot a glance towards inside to see if he was around. He was nowhere.
Khushi's thought "Hume aisa kyun lag raha hai ki Arnav ji chahthe the ki hum yahah hi rahe... UNKE SAATH"
Thinking so, she smiled to herself. Even the thought of this, had brightened her mood to another level.

**********************Part 3 *********************

Khushi and Payal along with Chacha's family reached the Guptas place. They all had a long chat

about olden days at Lucknow over dinner.
Finally they all retired to bed. K and P were really excited to sleep together in their room after a long while.
K and P were in bed enjoying their sisterly cuddle nap when Payal's phone rang. It was aakash. She went by the window and spoke for few mins. Khushi was looking at the way Payal was all happy and shy on receiving his call. She was very happy seeing their love. But it also drove her into thinking about her Prince Charming. She recollected the afternoon's happenings. Payal came and sat by her.
P : Aakash ji ka phone that
K : Kehne ki zaroorat nahi tha. Itna sharma rahe the aap ki hume patha chal hi gaya :D.
P : (beats her for fun) Mamaji aur Mamiji unki dhosth ki ghar me rukhne waale the na aaj? yeh Keh rahe the ki waise bhi hum yahan pe hain, tho wahan un ko man hi nahi lag raha hai. Is liye woh bhi maaji papaji ke saath gaye hua hain.
K : hmmm... Accha toh ab aapki shahjahan aapke bina ek bhi raat nahi guzarenge kya??
P : Dhug. Khushi tum bhi na. har wakth mazaaq karthi rehthi hai.
They both laugh and lie down.

Just then Khushi remembers something.
K : Arre Jiji. Shaam ko Anjali Di ka phone aaya that. Woh bhi keh rahe the ki Naniji ke saath Shantha mausi ki ghar pe rukhne waale hain.
P : Arre haan. Par to kya?
K : K..kuch nahi jiji. Accha chalo sothe hain.
K (thinks to herself) : Toh Arnavji ghar pe akele reh gaye. (She felt bad)
Hits her head.
K : hum bhi na! woh koi chote bacche thodi na hain? Aur waise bhi. Woh tho bohot kush honge akele rehne ki. Laad governar. hmph...

P dozed off to sleep. K was restlessly tossing to both her sides. She was totally disturbed at the thought of him. "Hey devi maiyya aap humare saath aise kyun kar rahe hain. Hamesha Arnavji hume itna sathathe hain, itna daanthe hain, itna pareshan karthe hain aur ab humare bina khoob maza le rahe honge aur hum hai ki unhi ke baare me sochkar baite hain. Pagal ho gaye hai hum"

She looked at the clock. It was 11 PM. She picked up her mobile. Then quickly threw it away far
from her. "Nahi khushi nahi, yen galthi math karo. Ek hi chath pe rehke hi kabhi baat nahi karthe aur ab yahan se wahan phone pe??? NAHI Bilkul nahi." She closed her eyes forcibly but in vain. "Aur waise bhi phone karke kya kahogi?? Baat karne ke liye kuch bhi toh nahi hai. Aur agar aisa ek baat/sawaal mil bhi gaya tab bhi woh laad governar tume 100 thaane marenge par tumse seedhi baat kabhi nahi karenge. Is liye chup ek dham chup" But as always she couldnt resist her care , she slowly picked up her mobile again. She scrolled down to the contact Arnavji... dhak dhak... she held her breadth. "Haila ab hi hum yeh haal pe hain, unki aawaaz sunenge tho zaroor kuch bakne lagenge aur woh hume pagal samjenge."
She thought for a while and decided "Chalo ek message bejthe hain.

Waise bhi so rahe honge kal agar pooche tho kuch bahana bana lenge"

Meanwhile in Shaanthivan, Arnav was totally restless. Never in his life, he had missed anyone so terribly. He was angry, with himself, for succumbing to her and of course for letting her go. And with her too, for giving him this torture.

He was roaming here and there in the room, trying to get some sleep. He had the bed for him tonight. He lay at his side of the bed staring at the other half of the bed. He pulled up his hand and moved it slowly over the pink bed spread. "This cant be happening..." He mouthed angrily. Just then "Beep Beep" said his mobile.

He carelessly took it from the side table and his expression went blank "Khushi??!?!?"
He hurriedly opened the message and the sweetest smile cropped up his face.

The first ever Message Convo :
K : aap so gaye?
A : Nahi. kyun?
K was extremely delighted to hear the beep of her mobile. She excitedly picked it up and read Arnavji's first ever message to her.
K : Jeejaji ne kaha ki woh log kahi aur rukh rahe hai. Toh aap akele honge na? Bas hum poochna chathe the ki aapne khana dawai sab li?

A read and re-read the message over and over again with a smile thruout. At times he couldnt digest about how somebody can be so concenred about a persn who ill-treats her this much.
Mumbling to himself : Badi aayi chintha karne ke liye. Itna fikar hai toh patha nahi gayi kyun.

A : Nahi. khana dawai kuch nahi li meine. Kya karne waali ho ab?
K reads the message and hits her head (to herself) : yeh laad governar bhi na. Kab kya karenge kab kya kahenge kuch patha hi nahi chaltha hai.
K : Hey bhagwan! Sach mein aapne dinner nahi ki?

A smirks on reading the message. her concern was so obvious even through text. He mumbles Paagal...
A types "Nahi meine khana aur dawai le li" Then reads his own message and then edits and sends.

A : SHUT UP. meine khana aur dawai le li.
K : Toh theek hai so jayiye.
A : Mujhe tumhari permission ki zaroorat nahi hai Khushi kumaari gupta
K : WHAT THE!! ... Singh Raizada.
A couldnt help control his big smile on reading the message. K knew that he would be amused and really enjoyed that fact that she was actually having a neat conversation with her laad governar.
A : Ab chup bhi raho. muhje sone dho.
K : Toh hum kahan rokh rahe haght Arnavji
A really loved the way how she had added the ArnavJi in her message. It made him feel their conversation was face to face.
A : Haan Haan Theek hai Goodnight.

He re read all her messages for many times and then dozed of to the most contented satisfied sleep somehow knowing whom he would be dreaming about.
SHe re read all his messages for many times and then dozed off to the most contented satisfied sleep somehow knowing whom she would be dreaming about.
