Khushi will bring back the mischievous Arnav. To answer your question regarding Anjali and Geet, yes, you are bang on. How did you guess? This will bring a twist later on.

CHAPTER 14. MAAN SHOUTS, KHUSHI ACTS,

GEET UPSET, ARNAV ANGRY

Place - Khurana Mansion

Maan sighed as he parked his car. He glanced at his watch. It was already 6:30 PM and he was feeling hungry. He hoped that Miss. Gupta will reach home safely. He had given her some work but she was unable to complete it till evening. He had told her to complete it next day but she was adamant that she wish to complete it the same day itself. He knew that some of his staff were still in Office and he did not need to get worried. But then Khushi was barely 19 and she made him worry as she was new to Delhi too. He called up the Office Security only to come to know that Khushi had just left for home. Maan sighed in relief. It was still not dark yet and she will reach home safely.

Maan walked into his house when a smell made him stop. It was pasta. Someone had made Pasta. He walked towards the dining table and looked at the pasta bowl. The smell and his hunger were luring him to eat it. But for whom it was made? He realized that Dev was to go to Mumbai for a night with Naintara to meet Annie and Arjun. They must have reached by now. So the pasta was not for them. Dadima did not like Pasta. That meant this Pasta was made for him, he mused. He sat on his regular seat and served himself. He took some pasta onto his fork and took a bite eagerly. He was amazed. The pasta was delicious. He had never tasted such a delicious pasta in his whole life. He finished the first serving and eagerly helped himself to another serving. He had nearly emptied the whole dish when Dadima came into his view with a smile on her face. He smiled at her and spoke, "Dadima, yeh Pasta toh bahut badiya hai. Kisne banaya? Aapko banana aata nahi. Aur naukar toh itna achha banaate nahi. Toh kisne banaaya hai?" His Dadima gave him a smile and beckoned someone from behind him. Maan turned around and noticed Soni smiling at him. She was wearing a white chudidaar and fiddling with her Duppatta. Her neck and cheeks were red due to blushing. Maan stared at her. She was looking like a pari in white, he thought. Did she know that white was his favourite colour? He wondered.

Sonia stared from behind the kitchen door as her future husband gobbled the pasta in a jiffy. She was happy that he liked it so much. He had helped her so much. Instead of leaving her because she had forgotten him, he actually brought her to his home and wanted to help her recover. He was also helping her get her memory back. He was a gem of a person and she wanted to express her gratitude in some way. Dadima had given her the idea to make Pasta as it was Maan's favourite. She winced a bit when her feet again started hurting. She had been standing near the stove and cooking for God knows how long. And her legs were punishing her for that. But what is a small pain in front of Maan's smile! She happily smiled even though she was in pain. Soon Dadima came and spoke to Maan. She signaled Sonia to come near the table. Sonia felt herself blushing. Maan turned around and stared at her. She hated it when Maan stared at her in such manner. It made her blush and have feelings which were new to her. She bowed her head down and walked towards the dining table. She stood beside Dadima with her head down and slowly peeked through her eyelashes. What she saw made her forget her blush. Maan was glaring at her.

Dadima walked away wanting to give the two some privacy. She walked towards the hallways when she could not resist herself. She was excited with her plan and wanted to see the result. Afterall the route to a man's heart was through his stomach. That's how it was with her husband. And Maan was so much like his Dadaji. Dadi blushed at the thought of her husband but focused on the current scene. She hid behind the curtains giving Maan and Soni the impression that she had gone to her room while she could observe them clearly from her position.

Place - Outside Khurana Constructions

Khushi walked down the steps of Khurana Constructions nervously. She looked here and there with her heart in her throat; hoping against hope that ASR was not around her. She had deliberately stayed behind and completed her work. So that she would be late and she would not meet the Rakshas. She did not want to meet him. She was scared of him. She sighed as she noticed him nowhere in the vicinity and walked of to the bus stand. She noticed that it was getting darker as sun was about to set. She had only walked a few steps when she felt her Duppatta being tugged from behind. She gulped. Bhoot! Was her first thought. Mawaali, Gunde! Were her next thoughts. She slowly turned around with her eyes tight closed and Devi Maiyya's name on her lips. After few minutes, she slowly opened her left eye and shut it back. Rakshas! She thought. It was only her own personal Rakshas, not any Bhoot or Gunda, Khushi thought happily. Wait! WHAT! Rakshas was holding her Duppatta! Khushi panicked. She opened her eyes and gaped at Arnav. As for Arnav, Arnav grinned like an idiot at her expression. She was cute, he thought fleetingly. They stared at each other for a while when a car passing by honked. They came out of trance and Arnav whispered, "Afreen". He tugged at her Duppatta and she fell on his chest. He staggered a bit at sudden weight and clutched her waist trying to regain his balance. They stared into each other's eyes with his hands on her waist and her hands on his chest. Khushi's heart started thumping but for the first time not due to fear but due to Arnav's proximity. Arnav stared at her eyes but his eyes unknowingly went to her lips; her trembling lips. They were luring him to kiss them. He gulped as he raised his eyes back to her eyes.

Another car honked while passing away and they came out of their trance. Khushi pushed him away. She calmed her heart by taking deep breaths. Arnav still stared at her face taking in her closed eyes and her trembling lips. He looked away to get his thoughts into focus. Khushi felt her heart calm down and she raised her eyes and stared at Arnav. Arnav glanced at her feeling awkward after what passed between them. Khushi had enough. This had to stop. "Dekhiye Mr. ASR…", Khushi spoke when Arnav cut her of with "Arnav". Khushi furrowed her brows feeling confused. Arnav spoke, "Mera naam Arnav hai. Tum Mujhe Arnav bula sakti ho." "Ji?", Khushi questioned him still feeling confused. "Haan! Ji bhi laga sakti ho. Arnavji bhi achha lagta hai but you know what, I prefer Arnav.", Arnav replied looking seriously at her. Khushi glared at him murderously. If she was not such a good girl, she would have imagined murdering him with her bare hands.

"Toh hum kahaan they Afreen? Haan! Tum kuch bol rahi thi……Afreen. Kaho na kya bol rahi thi?", Arnav questioned her as he took some steps towards her and raised his hand. He caressed her face with his fingers. He was only planning to scare her with his touch. But the moment he touched her, he was lost. His hand slowly moved towards her neck and rested on her shoulders. Khushi felt her body shiver with his touch and she felt scared. Khushi had enough. Everybody had their breaking point and she had reached hers. She had enough of this Rakshas or Chota DD or ASR or Arnav or whoever he is! She had enough; period. She glared at him and Arnav involuntarily took a step back. He dropped his hand from her shoulder. The intensity in her eyes scared him. He was given only a second to gather himself when she let out all her frustration in the only manner she knew; through words.

Place - Khurana Mansion

Maan felt his anger raising. Why was she doing this? That was the first thought in his mind. Was she trying to win his heart by making his favorite foods? Was she trying to woo Maan Singh Khurana? Maan shook his head. NO! She was not like that. She could not be! But then why did she do this? Maan felt anger surge through him at that thought. Was she just like those other girls who wanted his money? Did she fake her memory loss to get into his house? Maan glared at Soni breathing heavily. Sonia gulped as she saw Maan react like this. Did she do something wrong? She took a step back. But that movement brought her pain reminding her that her legs were still not healed well. She winced at the pain.

Maan noticed her wince and looked at her feet. He again felt his anger rising as he noticed her wincing. Her soles had not healed yet and still she was doing such antics. She was cooking by stove when her soles were still healing! Maan got up from his seat and marched towards her. He grabbed her shoulders with both of his hands and pulled her close. Her eyes had widened in fear but he ignored them. "Yeh tum kya kar rahi thi? Yeh tumne kya kiya?", Maan whispered but even his whisper was filled with anger. Soni's eyes teared up but Maan ignored her tears. "BOLO", Maan roared.

"Ji…..Woh……Main…..Woh", Soni stuttered. Maan shook her as if she was a ragged doll. "Tumhari pairon mein chot lagi hai aur tum yeh sab kar rahi ho? Khana paka rahi ho? Haan? Kya hai yeh sab? Kya jataana chaahti ho tum, haan? Bataao. Kya chaahti ho tum?" Soni started sobbing. Maan threw her away from him in such a way that she fell on the floor.

Soni raised her head and stared at the person who claimed to be her future husband. She felt her heartbeat rise as she looked at him in fear. Was he an abuser, a wife beater? Was her first assumption at the hospital right? Maan could not take her tearful eyes. He turned away and all the thoughts which he had when he first met her came into fore. Was he right? He started shouting, "Pairon mein chot lagi hai aur yeh khana banaane chali. Tumhein kuch ho jaata toh." He turned around and glared at her. He bent and held her shoulders tightly again with both his hands. He pulled her up and glared at her. Soni struggled to get away from him. She pushed him with her hands but stilled when she saw the hatred in his eyes. "Kya jataana chaahti thi? Haan? Kya chaahti ho tum? Kya socha tumne, haan? Kya socha tumne? Ki tumhari in harkaton se Maan Singh Khurana pighal jaayega. Ki tum Mujhe haasil karlogi. Agar tumne yeh socha ki tum yeh kar sakti ho toh tum galat ho, samjhi! SAMJHI KI NAHI!" He roared the last sentence. Soni nodded as she trembled in fear. He pushed her away and turned around. Soni stumbled backwards and tried to regain her balance. She stabilized herself and with all her dignity walked past him. But as soon as she reached the stairs she could not bear the pain in her heart. Not caring about her soles and her feet, she ran as fast as she could to her room.

Place - Outside Khurana Constructions

"Himmat kaise hui aapki humein is tarah haat lagaane ki. Kya samajhte hain app khudko? Kya chaahte hain aap? Bataaiye? Kyon peeche pade hain aap humaare? Kahin aap un logon ki tarah toh nahi jinhein lagta hain ki unke paas paisa hai toh unpe ladkiyan apna sab kuch luta dengi. Agar aisi baat hai toh hum aapko bataa dein ki hum unme se nahi. Hum bikaau nahi hain.", Khushi glared at Arnav. Arnav felt mortified. Did he treat her in such a manner that she thought in a such a way? Did she really think he was a guy who wanted women to sleep around with? Did she really think he just wanted to sleep with her? He took a step ahead but Khushi raised her hand and pointed her finger at him. "Aage mat badhna samjhe. Aage mat aana." Arnav felt bad that he had harassed her so much that she would be scared of him. He was just flirting with her nothing more. He just found her different from the rest of the girls. Infact she was the first girl who did not flirt back and that attracted him more. But he did not expect anything from her except may be friendship; but nothing more.

He moved a few steps forward intending to say sorry to her and promising her that he would not harass her more but she did not allow him that. "Hum samajh gaye aapko kya chaahiye. Yahi na." Without waiting for his answer, she removed her Duppatta and threw it away. Luckily, due to darkness and the Office being in deserted area, no one noticed her except Arnav. "Kya chaahiye aapko?", Khushi screamed at him. "Le lijiye lekin humein sataana bandh kijiye." She joined her hands in front of him begging him to leave her alone. Arnav was shocked. Did she think he would stoop so low? He staggered a step back.

Khushi started crying and fell down on the floor. She started sobbing. "Jo karna hai kar lijiye. Bas humein sataana chod dijiye. Hum aur nahi she sakte, nahi reh sakte dar dar ke ghut ghut ke." She started sobbing earnestly.

Arnav took two steps back, turned around and walked away. What else could he have done? He turned back and stared at her. She was still on the floor crying away. He turned away and walked off to his car. Khushi cried for few more minutes when she noticed that the Rakshas was nowhere. She smiled. Her idea worked. Her whole plan worked. She grinned excitedly. Waah! Khushi Kumari Gupta! Waah! Kya acting ki hai! Humein toh award milna chaahiye. She mentally patted her back and congratulated herself for getting rid of Rakshas. Now he would think twice before approaching her. She had seen in a movie named Jeet where Sunny Deol was stalking Karishma Kapoor and she had done the same thing; flinging her Duppatta away and telling him to do whatever he wanted but stop haunting her. Even Sunny Deol had left her alone after that. Of course they fell in love later on but Khushi preferred to ignore that portion of the movie for now.

A while back when Arnav had touched her, Khushi was scared. She had to do something and that also fast, that's when this idea had come in to her head. She was a bit apprehensive whether it would work or not. But then she realized that if this did not work then Bag mein Mirchi Powder toh haina! But her plan had worked perfectly. But in the movie Sunny Deol had picked up Karishma's Duppatta and wrapped it around her. Why the Rakshas did not do that? But then she realized that because of that one action, Karishma had fallen for Sunny. "Achha hua unhonien aisa nahi kiya." She picked her Duppatta and worn it around her in her usual style. She smiled. "Arre Waah! Khushi, kya acting ki? Kya idea tha us Rakshas ko bhagaane ka? Waah Khushi Waah!" She said out loud not knowing that certain someone had noticed her each and every word and action and was fuming in anger.

Place - Khurana Mansion

"Yeh kya tareeka hai Soni bete se baat karneka? Boliye Maan. Koi kisi ladki ke saath is tarah se bartaav karta hai kya?" Dadima questioned Maan. She had come out of her hiding angry and ashamed of her grandson. She could not believe her own eyes. Maan turned around and looked at her. "Aapne dekha nahi usne kya kiya?" Maan questioned back. "Unhone wahi kiya jo humne unse kahaa tha.", Dadima replied in stern voice. Maan was stunned. His Dadima told Soni to make Pasta for him. "Woh aapka dhanyawad karna chaahti thi, isliye humaare paas aayi thi. Humne unse kahaa ki woh yeh sab karne ke liye." Dadima explained. "Dhanyawaad?", Maan was baffled. "Haan! Woh keh rahi thi ki agar aap chaahte toh unhe wahin hospital pe chod aate kyunki woh aapko bhool chuki thi, lekin aap unhe apne ghar laaye aur unka khayal rakha. Isliye woh aapko Dhanyawaad karna chaahti thi Maan beta. Aur aap kuch aur samajh baithe." Dadima clarified.

Maan felt anger but this time on himself. He should not have been that rude. But then he remembered her blush and her shy looks. He felt angry at her again."Agar woh sirf dhanyawaad karna chaahti toh woh itna sharmaane ka naatak kyon karti hai?" Maan questioned his Dadima. Dadima felt like slapping her forehead. She raised her eyes to heaven silently asking God to give her buddhu grandson some brains. She looked at him and spoke, "Achha ab hum samjhe. Aapko unke Pasta se nahi aapko unki adaaon se problem hain." Dadima teased him. Maan narrowed his eyes at her. "Maan beta aap yeh kyon bhool jaate hain hum sabne unse jhoot bola hai.Woh samajhti hain ki aap unke hone waale pati hain. Toh unka sharmana aur aapko is tarah se dekhna lajmi hai." Dadima told him as she sat on a chair nearby. Maan sat on the floor and rested his head on her lap. She ruffled his hair lovingly. "Matlab Mujhe yeh sab tab tak sehna padega jab tak who theek nahi ho jati?" Maan raised his head and looked at her. Dadima nodded her head. Maan rested his head on her lap again with a look of disappointment on his face. He felt very uncomfortable when she glanced at him in such a manner, Maan realized. But he had to grin and bear. "Maan beta, aapko nahi lagta aapko Soni se maafi maangni chaahiye? Aapko istarah bartaav nahi karna chaahiye tha na? Aap bahut rude they na?" Dadima questioned him sweetly and Maan realized that she was right. "Mein abhi use manaata hoon aur maafi bhi maangta hoon." Maan nodded his head, got up, hugged his Dadima and jogged up the stairs. He left behind a grinning Dadima not realizing that Maan Singh Khurana for the first time was going to apologise and that also to a girl.

Place - Outside Khurana Constructions

Khushi walked towards the bus stop with a smile on her face and a spring in her steps. She was extremely happy. She grinned like a fool when out of nowhere she felt a hand on her shoulder. She stopped, scared but took a deep breath and turned around. Her eyes widened as she noticed an angry and fuming ASR staring at her as if he would kill her. Khushi was shocked. She took a step back at the intensity of Arnav's glare.

"Toh woh sab ek naatak tha aur kuch nahi? Tum naatak kar rahi thi. Tumne ek baar bhi socha nahi ki tumhare is naatak ki wajah se Mujhe kaisa mehsoos hoga.", Arnav spoke gritting his teeth. He glared at her. He suddenly held her shoulders and pulled her close. His nose nearly touched hers. He noticed her widen her eyes with fear but he was beyond caring. How dare she play a prank on him? And that also such a cruel prank? "Main kitna ghatiya mehsoos kar raha tha jaanti ho tum? Ghinn aa rahi thi Mujhe apne aap pe. Nafrat ho rahi thi mujhe apne aap se. How dare you? How dare you Khushi Kumari Gupta? Tumhare is ek naatak se Mujhe apne aap se nafrat ho rahi thi. Nafrat samajhti ho na tum? HAINA?" He shouted at her. Khushi felt tears in her eyes. When she did the naatak she did not think about the impact her act would have on him. She felt very low that she played such a prank on him. And what had he done that she took such a step? Unhone aisa kiya hi kya tha ki humne is tarah ka khel khela. Bas thodi masti ki thoda mazaak kiya tha unhone. Par unhone humaare saath battameezi toh nahi ki na. Toh humne aisa khel kyon khela? Chi, Khushi, Chi! Khushi felt like slapping herself.

Arnav pushed her away and she stumbled. She regained her balance and Arnav spoke, "Ghinn aati hai Mujhe tumse. Ghinn aati hai ki main tum jaisi ek ghatiya insaan ko jaanta hoon, pehchaanta hoon." Khushi raised her tearful eyes at him. "Tum yahi chaahti thi na ki main tumhe akela chod doon. Lo chod diya. Ab tumhe kabhi nahi sataaonga. Kabhi tumse baat bhi nahi karoonga. Tumhara mooh bhi nahi dekhoonga. Happy! I hope you are happy Khushi Kumari Gupta."Arnav glared at her and walked off. Khushi started crying as she moved towards the bus stop.

P.S. How was it? I am kinda nervous with this chapter.

P.P.S This chapter is dedicated to Mina420. Thank you for congratulating me for the first month anniversary of this FF.
