Part 5 ~ The Promise
"How are you Khushi!", Lavanya screamed, ecstatic.
"Great! And you?", Khushi replied equally excited.
"Finally I AM IN MUMBAI!!!", Lavanya squeeled.
They started walking out of the airport.
"Mumbai?", Anjali rhymed.
"Ya... Mumbai", Arnav affirmed.
Anjali nodded, leaving the room along with Shubham.
As soon as she left, Arnav opened his drawer and took the photograph in his hand.
There was a beautiful woman in it along with him. The woman was leaning on him and he was smiling.
They both were staring at each other.
"Khushi", Arnav whispered with a smile.
He remembered the day when Maami took that photograph on NK's marriage. He remembered how everyone teased him and Khushi for the whole week after seeing the photograph and for getting cosy with each other.
He placed his palm on the photograph, rubbing his fingers gently on Khushi's face.
"Why am I getting this feeling that you are near", he said.
he closed his eyes.
"Khushi", he whispered gently.
Khushi stopped. She felt as if a gust of wind blew. She turned around. There was a crowd of noisy people there but all she could hear were his heartbeats, feel his breath...
She walked inside hurriedly scanning each and every corner, pushing many people on her way. All she could feel was his presence.
"Arnav?", she asked herself.
"Arnav, come down for lunch", Anjali called him, breaking his Sunday noon nap.
"Let me sleep Khushi", he blabbered half asleep.
Anjali gave a wry smile. She sat beside his beloved brother. She stared at his innocent face, deep in sleep. Still, the pain inside him was visible to her. How she wished she could help him! How many times had she tried to persaude Arnav move on! But all her efforts went futile.How she wished she could bring back Khushi! But no one knew where she was. She remembered her last words...
~~FLASHBACK~~
"Khushi, how can you leave him like that. Please stay", Anjali pleaded.
"No di, I can't , I'm sorry.", Khushi cried.
"He'll die Khushi! He loves you alot. He'll break down", Anjali said, with tears in her eyes.
"Thats the problem di! He loves me alot.. he'll not be able to handle the truth", Khushi cried.
She couldn't help it. She HAD to leave. Arnav HAD to move on. She was leaving for his own benefit. She couldn't afford to give him pain.
Just then the train arrived. Khushi took her bags from the floor. Anjali held her hand.
"Khushi, I understand, but leaving him is not the solution. He'll break down", Anjali cried.
Khushi wiped the tears flowing down her cheek and said in a strong tone.
"Then find someone else for him. Please", Khushi said placing a hand on Anjali's shoulder,"Please Di, I can't see him in pain. If he'll come to know the truth, he'll never let me go. promise me that you won't tell him. EVER", she completed.
Anjali nodded reluctantly.
Khushi placed a white envelope on Anjali's hand.
"Give it to him", she said.
Khushi looked at Anjali's womb.
"I am sorry Di. If I hadn't entered your life, this baby would have a father.", Khushi apologised.
"Khushi! That matter had ended long back. Its not your fault. Please don't apologise Khushi", Anjali consoled her.
"What will I tell chote?", Anjali asked Khushi.
"Let him think that I have still not forgiven him. It will take time but he'll soon get over it and forget me", Khushi said with much difficulty.
She couldn't imagine anyone else with Arnav. She just couldn't. But she had to. It would be better for Arnav.
"But Khushi,it's been 3 months. Everything had become fine. You had forgiven him. You too were so much together in NK's marriage. Arnav would never believe it", Anjali said teary-eyed.
"He will Di. He will", Khushi said staring at the envelope in Anjali's hand.
"Don't you think he deserves to know the truth?", Anjali asked Khushi in a serious tone.
Khushi turned around to face her back to Anjali.
"He doesn't deserve the pain he'll get along with the truth Di", she answered as she walked towards the train.
"Take care Khushi. Take care.", Anjali said, tears flowing down her cheek.
"Di, name him Shubham", Khushi shouted with a smile ,from the moving train standing beside the door.
Anjali placed her hand on her womb and then looked at the diminishing figure of Khushi as the train moved past her...
~~~~~~~~
"Maamu, Wake up", Shubham shouted, pushing Arnav.
Anjali's lane of thoughts was broken with the sudden chaos in the room.
A tear dropped down Anjali's eye. It had been 6 long years. Still Arnav was not able to get over Khushi. All the attempts she made to fix him up with someone else had been futile. She still had fulfilled her promise to Khushi. She hadn't even given a hint to Arnav as to why Khushi left. She knew he would break down.
She looked at his son. She had fulfilled Khushi's wish. She named him Shubham, the name which Khushi and Arnav had planned for their own son.
She smiled when Arnav picked Shubham up and began to tickle him.
'Maybe thats why Arnav and Shubham get along so well', she thought.
She stood up.
"Stop it you guys! STOP STOP!", she said trying to push them apart.
~~~~~~'
What are Khushi and Anjali hiding from Arnav? Why did she leave him? What is in that envelope? What happened in these 6 years? Will Arnav and Khushi ever meet?
