SS - Baby On Board - Ch 6 pg 124 - Ch 7 Thread#2

K: listen Mr. Raizada... I really don't think this is possible... I mean you and me?

A: why what's wrong in that? Come on... you are the best designer in town, I am giving you your dream job... head FD (Fashion Designer) at AR Designs

K: oh please, cut that out...you are just trying to buy off your competitor...

A: a competitor? You? To me...? To ASR? Hahaha... he sipped on to his coffee as he gave her a sarcastic laughter.

K: yeah...I am... this season Panache was just 3 points below AR... You are scared that next season we might cross you to reach the top... she banged her palm on the table...

They were inside Arnav's cabin at ARD (AR Designs)

A: just shut up Gupta... ASR is never scared of failure...because I don't fail... AR cannot be beaten...

K: then Raizada, will you take the pain to tell me why are you offering me the job of your head FD and paying me triple the money a normal head FD gets?

A: I just want the best designer for my company, I am paying you more than what you make, designing for a small boutique, and above everything I am giving you the name... a whole collection on your name and fame...

K: well thank you Mr. Raizada, the boutique is mine, the designs are mine...when it'll be the right time, I'll name me out...I don't need your help to get myself fame...

She stood up to leave...

K: you and I can never do something or anything together...it's just not possible...

A: I know that... he replied with irritation.

K: then why did you even offer me the job?

A: Payel insisted that just because we are in the same industry...it would have been nice if we worked together...

K: oh jiji didn't say this... she sat down again...

A: well yes she said that...

K: no, you don't realise do you?

A: I don't realise what? That you don't wanna work with me? Well I have realised that big time Gupta...

K: no Raizada... stop being so dumb... she tried to set us up...

A: what do you mean; she tried to set us up?

K: god, you are dumber than I thought...

A: you know what...I tolerate your insults just because you are my bro's sis in law... do you get that?

K: just shut up... you don't get it Raizada... they tricked us into this so that we hook up...

A: what?

K: yes... the very day they got married they started dreaming about us getting along...

A: but that's sick...and 'they'? Why 'they'? You think Aakash is also involved? No way... it's just your jiji...

K: I am pretty sure Jijaji is involved...

A: no way...

K: fine...check it out for yourself tonite after you get back home...

A: and how am I gonna do it?

K: just say something about me and see how they, oops 'he' reacts...

With that she stood up and walked out of his cabin, mumbling to herself, "jiji...I can't believe you thought of hooking me up with ego boy Arnav Singh Raizada..."

A YEAR LATER...

Ak: twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are' Aakash sang the famous song as he tried in vain to put the little, giggling, 7 month old baby girl to sleep'.

Payel had dozed of next to him'

Arnav drove his car, "Aakash if you sing like this' Ashi will never sleep".

Khushi, who sat next to Arnav, chuckled as she turned around and tickled baby Ashna Raizada'

Ashi giggled merrily and asked Khushi to stop in her baby language, "a googoo'brrr'brrr'.gui'"

K: awww' she turned around to look at Mr. Grumpy Swami' Arnav Singh Raizada'who drove his car steadily.

Payash were returning from the Gupta and Arnav went over to pick them up, Khushi came up as Payel needed her help to look after Ashi.

Arnav was a chachu now and Khushi a proud masi of one of the happiest kid of Delhi; she was a bundle of joy.

Arnav and Khushi tried their level best to avoid each other and had threatened Payash into a contract that they would never ever try to set them up.

Raizada Family initially consisted of brothers ' Arnav Singh Raizada and Aakash Raizada. Aakash married Payel almost 2 years ago. Khushi is Payel's sister.

15 months after their marriage, Raizada Family had a new little member added to them, baby girl Ashi.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Khushi had been staying at Raizada Mansion for almost a week now' she had fought with Arnav about everything in these 7 days.

They fought about anything and everything. But when it came to Ashi, their fights became mere teases'

K: "see Ashi' your chachu has a balding hairline' Khushi commented and giggled as Arnav walked into Payash's room, where Khushi was playing with Ashi'

A: "excuse me that's a widows peak'and I am not that old okay'"

K: "well, you don't behave like you are 27 years old'"

A: "yeah, as if you behave like a 23 years old lady' I might chuck out the 2' or maybe the 3' am I not right about your masi Ashi?" he chuckled and picked up Ashi form Khushi's lap.

Ashi kicked randomly as Arnav lifted her high up'

They didn't mind each others presence when they were with Ashi'

He brought her down and rubbed his cheek with that of Ashi, "you are the only girl for whom I would shave'"

Khushi giggled and took Ashi from him and made her sit down in between them' Arnav bent down to bring his face near to Ashi; Khushi took her palms and placed it on Arnav's cheeks' "Chachu has rough stubble na'?"

A: no I don't have rough stubble' as he placed his palm over Khushi's'

The very next moment he took back his hands and looked at Khushi, who was trying to free his finger from Ashi's soft grip'

Their eyes met for the 1^st time and just then they gave each other dirty looks, "how do you know I have rough stubble? You are giving Ashi a bad impression about me'"

K: "you call me crazy? What are you? Having rough stubble doesn't give someone a bad name, stupid'"

A: "it does give a bad name to a pretty baby like Ashi" and he bent over and dug his face into Ashi's little belly and she giggled loudly as it tickled her'

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2 Months Later

K: go jiji, please' the two of you haven't been on a dinner date for ages' She said as she literally pushed Payel out of the Raizada Mansion'

Arnav and Khushi even after so many days weren't at good terms with each other' they just managed to ignore each other.

P: but Ashi?

K: jiji' I am there' Arnav will be back soon' don't worry about her'

Payel and Aakash finally left and Khushi heaved a sigh of relief as she closed the door. She had planned this dinner and so had taken a leave from her boutique to stay with Ashi.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A car sped it's way through the northern highway' a romantic music played in the car' the driver changed it's track ready to take the 1^st left, when suddenly 4 bikes appeared from the other way' the driver tried in vain to take the extreme right, tyres screeched and the car slid towards the left, it tired to take a turn, but due to lack of space it flipped and one of the bikers slid the other way to be crushed under the very car'

The driver, the woman next to him and the biker died even before someone could get the news about the accident.
