Part 33
arnav: love
khushi: yyooo
she quickely covered her hand on her mouth to stop the word from finishing. Her eyes widened. What did she almost do. Arnav had a grin on his face. A huge grin. She closed her eyes. Didn't move her hand a single bit. She also put her second hand on the first. She gulped. A huge gulp.
Minta and tom were on the floor laughing their heads off. Akash was surprised.
Arnav: pardon me. I couldn't hear that properly. He tried to act innocently. Still grinning away.
Khushi's eyes showed fear. Embarrassment. Her cheeks turning crimson red. She was shaking.
Akash: kya kaha? His eyes were wide open.
Akash: you? He asked curiously
arnav: no. she said youTHHH.
Akash: youth. He raised his eyebrow in doubt.
Arnav: yeah. Meaning jawani. Love is pyaar. Youth is jawani. So love is jawani. Right khushi.
Khushi gulped and just nodded her head. Her hands still on her mouth.
Akash: then why is she covering her mouth. All red, and embarrassed. Arnav looked at tom and minta.
Tom: simple man. It's because that is a very narrow minded. No offense khushi, view. I mean you can love when you are young and old right. Not just while in your youth. Plus, the love in your youth is more physical based. Right arnav
arnav: exactly. Minta was still laughing. She had fallen on the floor.
Mina: ouch. My cheeks are killing me. She held onto her stomach.
Khushi hit her on the shoulder with one hand. She slowly moved the other hand and looked down. All embarrassed. She kept on fixing the strand of hair behind her ear. Even though it didn't move, she just was agitated.
Minta: khushi. Your hair is fine. I think you put it behind the ear enough.
Arnav started to cough a bit. She looked at him. She was not red anymore. His health was enough to get her mind off of the recent embarrassment.
She got up and went to get him a glass of water. As she stood behind arnav she noticed arnav got a message on this phone.
It read
from tom:
seems like your plan worked man. You got her to say it in front of everyone.
Khushi then bend down to give him the glass. He played this game so he can trick her into saying something. He used this game on her for his own means. How could he. He knew she was not comfortable even holding his finger in front of anyone. They hid their fingers from akash under her duppata yesterday during the movie. And he wanted her to say this in front of everyone. Her eyes were full of pain. He was replying to the text when he noticed khushi looking over his shoulder. His eyes widened. He looked at her. Her eyes were moist. Full of pain. Betrayal. Didn't he understand her enough to know that this was wrong. Didn't he. Her eyes just kept on asking him this question. She put the glass beside him and immediately left. Left the dorm. She didn't say anything to anyone. She was almost in tears.
Arnav: shit. He got up and went after her.
Akash: bhai, khushi. Where did these two go. He also got up and but stopped by tom.
Tom: I think it's better if you stay here with us.
Akash: why.
Tom: trust us man. Just stay.
Akash: she didn't say youth did she.
Tom just negatively shook his head. And akash ran his fingers through his hair. He was shocked. He did go to ask minta in the day time, but she didnt give him any answer. Tom had already told her arnav had asked them not to.
Akash: bhai was right. I am a fool.
Minta: yeahhh...
akash looked at her seriously.
Minta: you said it. I just confirmed it. She looked the other way. All three went to go and sit down.
Minta: mind if I stay here for a bit. I mean. I don't want to ..
tom: sure. You don't need to ask. They made themselves comfortable and did their own things. Akash in the mean time was just thinking. Of how his actions and words must have hurt arnav. That explained his rude behaviour, his possessiveness. Him telling him that khushi was not interested in him. This morning. The walk last night. Everything. And khushi. He was very harsh and persistent with her this morning. He pulled her close to him. Not forcing, but was very physical with her this morning. How was he going to face them.
Khushi ran to her dorm crying. She was about to close the door but a hand came in the middle. Arnav pushed it open. She looked the other. She was angry. Disappointed.
Khushi: please ... please leave. She licked her lips as she hesitantly finished the three words
arnav: please just listen to me. For a minute please.
Khushi: no. I think you should go.
Aranv pushed his way in and closed the door.
Khushi went to her room and closed the door. Arnav followed her but didn't go in her room. He knew that she needed to be alone for a bit. He allowed her to close to door on his face. He put his forehead on the door and made a fist with one hand and put that against the door as well, near his head.
Arnav: khushi please. Just one minute please. I can explain. Please.
He could hear her crying in her room. She leaned her back against the door. And her head back as well. She tried to close her mouth to prevent him from hearing her cry. But it was of no use. No matter how hard she tried. Her crying was getting louder and worse.
Cough cough. Arnav's cough returned. She turned around and was about to go back outside. But heard him say
arnav: please.. bas ek mauqa tho do. Please. She stopped and went and sat on her bed. Holding the rim of her mattress with her hands. Trying to support herself and stop from falling down. She was breaking up piece by piece from inside.
Arnav: trust me khushi. It's because.
He stopped. And paused for a minute. How could he tell her that his brother was also in love with her. And he refused to back off not until she her self said it. Kaisay samghatha arnav.
Khushi deserved to know. If he wanted her to admit her feelings out in the open, then she had a right to know from him why. Did he want to make a fool of her. He himself has never said anything to her, alone. And made her say it infront of everyone. How dare. he. She wiped her tears and licked her lips. That was it. He hurt her. He understood her right. Then how could he do such a thing. She got up and opened the door. He was standing there. He lifted his head and put his fist down. His eyes were moist.
Khushi sniffed and with a stern face said: kahiyeh.
Arnav: it's because of akash.
Khushi: akash.
Arnav: after this morning, I spoke to him.
Khushi: why, I asked you not to.
Aranv: he started, not me. I did not get angry at him. Nor argue. But he wanted to take his relationship with you much further than just friends. I asked him to stop. Didn't tell him why. I know you wouldn't want me to. But he refused to understand or stop. She looked to the other side. She was angry. Frustrated.
Arnav: I tried to convince him. I really did. But he didn't listen. He said that... he looked down.
Khushi: that.. she folded her hands infront of her. No more shy khushi. Nothing. This time she changed. He made her change.
Aranv gulped. And sighed.
Arnav: that not until you yourself tell him that you are not interested in him then
khushi: tho bagai is kay that you tell me that he wants to be more than friends with me and I just need to tell him I am not interested in him, you decided to make me say... say.. something in front of everyone. Main sedhi tarhan say mana bhi thi kar sak thi thi na. Mera mazak, hamara mazak urana zaarori tha. She started to cry again. Harder this time. He put his hand forward to wipe her tears, she stopped him. Sniffed and clenched her jaw tightly.
Arnav: bend down on both knees. And looked up at her. He held onto both of his ears. She looked at him. He didn't have to courage to look into her eyes. He looked and closed his eyes. She saw tears flow down from his eyes. He started to cough. But he did not let go of his ears.
Arnav: sorry... sorry... ssooo... sniff... sorry..cough cough cough. Khushi bend down infront of him and put her hand on his mouth. He looked at her. She negatively shook her head. She sniffed. With both of her hands she wiped his tears and cupped his face. Her eyes immediately widened. Her heart skipped a beat. She put her hand on his forehead. Arnav was burning. She felt his cheeks.
Khushi: apko tho bohot taiz bukhar ho raha hai.
Arnav: kya tum nay mujhe maaf kiya.
Khushi: you have a very high fever. Get up. Please...
she stood up. Trying to pull his hands up. He didn't let go of his ears. And looked down. Tears still flowed down from his eyes. He closed his eyes. And sighed.
Arnav: please maaf kar do. Please...
khushi: get up.. you have a high fever. You need to rest. Ap nahin samagh rahay hain. You need to get up now... please.
Arnav: khushi. He looked up at her. Moist eyes. She could see the pain that was in her eyes two minutes ago now in his. But much more pain and agony. She saw regret. If her heart broke in two pieces, then his was shattered. She bend down. And looked into his eyes. She smiled and nodded her head. She wiped his tears.
Khushi: please ab please... meri baat maan ligiyeh. He let go of his ears. Cough cough. She stood up and helped him up. He was weak.
Khushi: ap bed parlaith gae yeh. You are weak. She helped him walk over to the bed. He sat on it. And put his legs up. Khushi pulled the quilt over him and he sat up against the side of the bed.
Khushi: lay down. Please.
Arnav: magar khushi. Main yahan par. I mean. She put her fingers on his lips.
Khushi: shhh. Please just.. please. Lay down. Arnav slid down and rested his head on her pillow. He wasn't sleeping. He just looked at her. She took out a white duppata from her drawer. and A pair of scissors. She cut it into strips. He just looked at her. His eyelids felt heavy. The fever was high. And was starting to take a toll. She came back with a bowl of water. Cold water. She moved the flowers from her night table aside. She placed the bowl on it and started to soak the white strips in it. Arnav was trying as hard as he could to keep his eyes open. She looked at him.
She gently put one of her hands on his cheek, and with the other hand softly closed his eyes.
She whispered: soo gae yeh. Hmm. She saw a faint smile play on his lips. He felt better from inside now. She started to place the wet strips on his forehead. To keep his fever down. He slept. And she kept on changing the strips every little while. Arnav's phone rang. It was akash. She answered it.
Akash: hello.
Khushi; hello.
Akash didnt have to courage to speak to her after knowing the truth. And what he did this morning. He just handed the phone over to tom.
Tom: hello
khushi: hello
tom: khushi. Umm. Is arnav there. It's late and he wasn't feeling well.
Khushi: yeah he's right over here. His fever is worse. I am just putting wet strips on his forehead. To keep the fever under control.
Tom: do you need help
khushi: no it's fine. He is already sleeping. Umm.. .. arnav might..
tom: I understand. I know no one else can look after him better than you. I'll tell akash. If anything just call me ok. I will come over immediately.
Khushi: tom. Thanks.
Tom: no problem. Take care of yourself as well. I don't think having both of you sick is a good idea.
Khushi: I will. Thanks. Bye.
Tom: bye. Tom hung up and told akash that arnav was going to spend the night there
akash: WHAT. His eyes flung right over. Jaw dropped.
Tom: grow up man. They are not sleeping together. His fever is worse and khushi is taking care of him.
Akash: his fever is worse. I'm going there
tom: stop. Don't you dare. You .. what do you call that. Kabab main haddi. If you go, then khushi will not be able to take care of him. You know she is shy right.
Minta: I am out. I will keep you guys updated.
Minta reached the dorm and saw khushi sitting on the bed. She just finished placing a new strip on his head. She sat there holding his hand in hers. She was worried. But strong. He needed her. Her strength. And for him. She would do anything. She sighed. A deep deep sigh. Minta walked over and knocked on the door. Khushi let go of his hand. And looked back. She smiled at minta and minta did like wise. Minta walked in. both whispered.
Minta: how is he now?
Khushi: fever is still high. But better than ten minutes ago. That is for sure. Umm. Minta I hope you don't mind. He might just stay here... t... .tonight.
Minta placed her supportive hand on khushi's shoulder.
Minta: I think that is a better idea. Varna if he was over there, then you would not let me sleep all night long. Minta call tom, ask him now. Call again. Both smiled.
Minta: I am in the other room. Let me know if you need anything and please do get some rest as well. ok. Minta left and khushi held onto his hand again. Their palms caressing each others, thumbs locked. And fingers wrapped around each others hand. Sat down on the ground beside him and gently kissed his hand that she held. She kept on looking at him sleep. Occasionally changing the strip until his fever died down. Once it did she sighed. She gently placed her head near their hands, and closed her eyes. As the morning approached, arnav woke up. Yawned. He felt exhausted. The fever had an after affect. Weakness was still there. But when he opened his eyes he saw her. Sleeping while holding his hand. Sitting on the ground. And her head rested on the side of the bed. He tried to slowly take his hand out of hers, but the slight movement woke her up.
khushi: arnav. ap. How are you feeling now? Kuch laa doon? She was startled. He smiled. With his free hand he cupped her cheek. She sighed of relief. She stood up and helped him sit up against the head board.
Khushi: aram say.
Arnav: khushi. Thank you.
Khushi: for.
Arnav: forgiving me. The both smiled at each other.
Khushi: main chai bana kar la thi hoon.
Arnav: khushi..
she stopped and turned around to look at him
khushi: gee
arnav: sirf ek cup. He smirked at her and she shyfully looked down. And bit her bottom lip.
Khushi went and made one cup. She went over to the room and saw that arnav was looking at the frame. He gently slid his fingers over the rose. Remembering the sweet memories that it brought. The note of a single rose and a single friend. He indeed found his friend, who was now his world. Khushi saw a loving smile on his face as he stared at the frame.
She knocked on the door. Arnav looked up. She smiled as she walked.
Arnav: come in, apna hi kamra samgho.
Both laughed. He shifted over a bit on the bed. She sat across from him but he held her hand and made her get up. He pulled her towards him and asked her to sit right beside him. She shyfully smiled and did. Her back was also against the head rest. He guided his hand to hers, the ones in between them. Slowly and softly he caressed the top of her hand with his finger. It tickled her. She giggled and bit her lip. He just slid his index finger over her fingers. Finally arriving at his destination. He stopped in the middle of her middle finger and index finger. He slid his finger back and forth between the crack. The touch of his finger going back and forth in the middle of her fingers made her heart beat increase. She lifted her finger and they both hooked them together. He put his thumb on the back of her index finger and started rubbing it. Sometimes in circles, and sometimes in a line. She smiled. And he smiled. He put the frame down between them. She handed him the chai. He took a sip and passed her the cup. She then took a sip. Later licking her lips. To cherish the taste, which was now much sweeter than the amount of sugar that she had put in.
Both started to talk about their memories. Favourite musicians, omar akram, movies, everything. They were just spending quality time with each other. Arnav already knew her, as aish. But he still acted as if he didn't. Sometimes the cup was in arnav's hand, and some times he passed it to khushi and she would take a sip. Both smiled, sometimes giggled, laughed, or just spoke. Khushi didnt look much as him and he didnt look much as her either. Both would look at the frame.
There was knock on the main dorm door. Khushi and arnav did not notice. Minta got up and looked into khushis room. She loved seeing the love birds mingle. She squinted her nose seeing the cute scene. She walked over to the door and opened it. It was akash.
Akash: hey minta, bhai awake?
Minta: shhh.. you want to see something really cute.
Akash looked at her werid. She pointed towards khushis room and put one of her fingers on her lips.
Akash walked over and looked in.
he rememered the mirchi game. How arnav told him, that he did know what love was. He saw his brother happy. And khushi khush thi. Truly happy. He smiled as he saw them share one cup of chai. Sometimes him taking a sip, sometimes her. He felt sad as well. That khushi didnt like him. But he was happy for them. The two people he cared for the most, were happy. That is all that matter. A small tear formed at the side of his eye. Minta noticed. She tapped his shoulder.
Minta: kya howa?
Akash shook his head and said nothing. He walked over to khushi's room and knocked on the door.
Arnav and khushi both looked up. Both shocked. They let go of their hands and khushi got up. Looking down. Aranv pulled himself up and sat up more straight.
Akash: ijazat hai, kabab main haddi ban nay ki. Aranv shook his head negatively and chuckled. Khushi gulped. She fixed her strand of her that was dangling on the side.
Akash walked in and sat infront of arnav.
Khushi: I';ll be back. Akash chai or coffee?
Akash: umm. Whatever the both of you were sharing. I'll have that. Khushi was red and ran out of the room. Aranv laughed and bend his head down.
Arnav: kabhi nahin sodh ro gay na.
Akash: bhai. How are you feeling now?
Arnav: better. Much better.
Akash: I could see that. Umm bhai. I needed to say something
arnav: sure what.
Akahs: sorry. I didnt know that you and khushi..
aranv gave a half smile.
Arnav: its ok. We didnt tell you. Its not your fault. Plus khushi hai hi aisi, sab hi us par fida hoga thay hain.
Akash: why didnt you tell me
arnav: because its not final final yet. I mean. We both know. Yes but its still in the beginning. And we are both studying right now. So cant make it official right.
Akash: and ma
arnav: she knows. She always did.
Akash: that is ma for you. Khushi returned with a cup of chai. And handed it to him.
Akash: so this is what you two were sharing.
Aranv raised his eyebrow and gave a loving yet warning look to his little brother
arnav: akaashhh...
akash: sorry sorry. Hey wait. No. I have always been free with her, and I will. I can be even more now. You cannot say anything. All three laughed.
Khushi: I am going to be outside. Let me know if you need anything. With that khushi left. Arnav finished their chai and akash enjoyed his.
Akash: bhai my stuff is packed and I have a flight in a bit.
Arnav: why are you leaving so soon.
Akash: I came to know who what that lucky girl, and I found out. Kaam khatam. Plus I needed to make sure that you expressed yourself. And seeing you guys this morning. I dont think you need my help. Idea.. why didnt I think of this before.
Arnav: kya.
Akash: you have reading week next week right.
Arnav: yeah. so.
Akash: khushi's parents live an hour away right.
Arnav: yeah...
akash started to whisper something quietly. Arnav raised his eyebrow in amazement.
Arnav: you really are my side kick. You were about to get kicked yesterday, but after giving me this idea. I will reconsider it. Both laughed.
Akash: are you going to stay here any longer, I mean feed each other breakfeast or are you going to come back with me.
Aranv got up and whacked the back of his brothers head.
Akash: ouch. You are suppose to be weak.
Arnav: you bug us, I whack you. Simple. I dont need strength for that.
They walked outside and khushi was in the kitchen.
Akash: khushi we will be heading out. Sorry I am taking bhai with me. Khushi smiled.
Khushi: akash. Voh. Aunty, mama, I mean. us. Voh. I dont want them.
Akash: I understand. No one will know anything. Yeh ek angraiz ka promise hai. He winked as he said that.
Akash: ok desi girl I am out. Returning, have a flight in an hour. He looked at arnav and then at khushi.
Akash: interesting. Both arnav and khushi sighed and smiled. Akash walked over to khushi and hugged her. Her arms were out. Not hugging in shock. She had a confused look on her face.
Akash whispered: see you later, bhabhi . Khushi eyes widened and she turned red. Arnav looked at his younger brother.
He cleared his throat.
Akash moved back and khushi looked down. She was red.
Akash: kya hai bhai.
Arnav: akash. Your a dead man. Both laughed and akash said bye and walked towards the door.
Arnav stood by kushi looking ahead. She looked towards him. Head down.
He whispered.
Arnav: thanks... she nodded her head shyfully. The brothers left. And khushi locked the door.
Precap: akash ka plan :D :D :D .. I plan on redeeming his character. Hehe. Such plans only akash can think of. ;)
