Arshi Love Saga! - Page 37

Arnav made an annoyed face and looked at his phone; it was almost 2pm. Why hasn't Khushi called yet? He looked around; his employees had gathered in the conference room. AR was hosting small businesses around Delhi who were interested in working with the company; there had been presentations all day. But Arnav was least interested in the presentations. He was concerned about Khushi. Usually she would have called him thrice by now ' first to check if he reached safe, then to check whether he had his lunch and then again to make sure he had his lunch. But today, she hadn't called even once until now. The presentation went on for another half an hour. Once it was over, Arnav ran out of the meeting room, before someone could stop him with questions. He ran to his office and closed the door. He dialed her number, as he slumped down into his chair and loosened his tie. It had been a long day, he had left home early, but she and Payal had still woken up earlier and made sure that the breakfast was ready before Arnav and Akash left for office. Khushi had seen him sit down at the dining table and had run to him with his tea. But just as she reached the table, she had tripped and the hot tea had fallen on her, scalding her hand. Even though Arnav was running late, he had applied balm on her hand, kissed her hand, ignoring the giggles from Akash and Payal and Khushi's blushing cheeks, and fed her breakfast. Arnav smiled, remembering how just before he left, Khushi had come running after him with his handkerchief, and after making sure that Akash and Payal weren't watching, stood on her toes and given him a kiss on his cheek. He touched his cheek and smiled. His smile suddenly disappeared and was replaced with concern, when she didn't pick up his call.

Arnav sat up straight on his chair, cut the call and checked his email on his laptop. He looked at the phone, expecting her to call him back after seeing his missed call. One, two, three seconds.. still no call. His phone still showed his wallpaper; a picture of Khushi smiling; a picture he had taken of her when he had taken her camping on top of a hill last weekend. He would never forget the happiness on her face, seeing the million bright twinkling stars shining down on them. He smiled and dialed her number again. The phone kept ringing, she still didn't answer. Just then he looked up as Aman knocked. Even while talking to Aman, his eyes went to his phone. An hour later, he checked his phone; she still hadn't called. He looked at the phone; where are you, Khushi? He dialed the landline; "Hari Prakash, is Khushi at home?" "No, Arnav bhaiyya." "How about Nani and Di?" "They have gone to the temple for satsang." "Has Khushi gone with them?" "No, Bhaiyya. Khushi bhabhi was here when they left. I saw her leave a while after." "Where did she go? When will she get back?" "I don't know, bhaiyya." "What the.. why didn't you ask..", Arnav started saying, through clenched teeth and then stopped himself, saying "Ok." He cut the call and shook his head. "This girl will drive me crazy."

Next, he tried Payal's number. He cut the call; even Payal wasn't picking up. "What the .. ! Now where is Payal? What is wrong with everyone? Why can't they answer phone calls?" Arnav's face clouded with anger. He checked the time. Two more hours of presentations before I can go home. Dammit. Where are you Khushi? Arnav raised his eyebrows. Akash! He dialed Akash's number. "Akash, is Payal with you?" "What? I am at office. Bhai, we came to the office together today morning, remember!" Arnav closed his eyes, frustrated; how could he have forgotten that? "That's right, Akash. Hmm... do you know where Payal is?" Akash chuckled, "Bhai, why the sudden concern about my wife? Yes and I know where Khushi is too. They have gone for a movie." Arnav raised his eyebrows. "What the' ok, Akash, talk to you later."

"He was so good, Jiji.. and the song sequence in the rain.. so romantic". Khushi put her hands together and smiled dreamily, "Salman Khan showing off his muscles ' can there be anyone b..e..tte..r..?" Khushi raised her eyebrows and stammered as she saw Arnav leaning against his white SUV; Khushi and Payal had just walked out of the theatre, after the movie. Arnav turned around, seeing them. "What are you doing here? We would have taken an auto." Khushi said, but Arnav cut her off. "Shut up and get in the car." He held the doors open for Payal and Khushi to get in and then walked to the other side, to the driver's side. As he started driving, no one spoke. Khushi looked at him, Arnav looked mad; Khushi gulped; hai, Devi Maiyya, what's wrong with Laad Governor? She looked at Payal, and smiled, "Jiji, did you see how Salman Khan carried the heroine in his arms.. wah.. and then when he took his shirt off and.. those mooovveeesss'" Khushi stammered again, as Arnav stared at her angrily. She turned around and looked straight at the road ahead. Finally, they reached home and Khushi opened the car door, grabbed Payal's hand and started walking fast towards the house. Hari Prakash let them into the house and as they stepped in, Arnav grabbed her hand. "Khushi, I need to talk to you." Khushi looked at him, scared. Payal smiled and walked away. Arnav started walking towards their room, dragging her. Once they reached the room, he pulled her inside and locked the door.

Arnav turned towards her angrily and then he noticed that her mobile phone was lying on the bed. He moved quickly to the bed, picked up the phone and turned to her. "What is this, Khushi? Is this why you own a phone? So that you can leave it at home when you go out? huh? Is this why you own a phone?" He yelled at her and she looked scared. "Answer me, dammit.." He screamed and moved close to her. She nodded and then shook her head and gulped, still looking scared. He grabbed her arms and said, "Do you know how scared I was when you weren't picking up my calls? I thought something.. something might have happened to you.. I thought.. I.." He paused, as he controlled his tears. "And you.. you and your Salman Khan.. do you have any idea what I.." He released her arms, turned around and threw her phone on the bed. "You could have told me where you were going.. or at least you could have carried your phone with you, Khushi." He said, looking at her over his shoulder. He closed his eyes to control his emotions, when he felt a hand on his shoulder.

Arnav turned around and saw Khushi, a smile on her face. She touched her ear and said, "I'm sorry, Arnavji. I forgot to take my phone with me. I realized that I had forgotten it when I was on my way to meet Jiji. I would have texted you from Jiji's phone, but then I remembered how you had said that you were busy all day, so I thought you wouldn't try to call me anyways. I am sorry. This won't happen again, ok?" She touched his cheek and leaned closer to kiss his lips. But he moved away and made a sad, pouty face. "And why didn't you call me today?" She raised her eyebrows, "You told me you will be in meetings all day, I didn't want to disturb you." Arnav turned to her and grabbed her arms, pulling her closer to him. "And you didn't think I would want to hear your voice, huh?" Khushi smiled again, and said softly, "I am glad I didn't take my phone. Now I know how much my voice is missed." Arnav's eyes twinkled as he pulled her close and kissed her forehead. He touched his forehead against hers and said softly, "Don't you dare scare me like that again, ok? You know I almost called the police. " Khushi giggled, and Arnav raised his eyebrows, "Khushi, it is not funny." She shook her head, trying to look stern and pressed her lips together to control her laughter. He put his arms around her and pulled her close in a tight embrace. She put her arms around his neck and rested her head against his chest; he placed his cheek on her hair and smiled.

"By the way, Mrs. Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada... Salman Khan showing off his muscles.. what did you say, can there be anyone better?" Khushi raised her eyebrows, gulped and pulled away. Arnav had a naughty look on his face as he stepped closer to her. She gulped and moved back, "I.. I ..", she stammered. Arnav smiled, his eyes had a naughty twinkle as he moved closer to her. She hit her back against the wall, stopped and looked at him, scared. He put his hands on either side of her and leaned in closer. She started breathing heavily and heart started pounding in her chest; she looked away, unable to control the desire that was building up in her as she looked into his loving eyes. Arnav brushed his stubble against her cheek, making her squirm with pleasure; he whispered into his ears, "and the way he carried her.. and then his moves as he took his shirt off' what did you mean, Mrs. Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada?" She turned to look at him and gulped again. Arnav continued with a naughty smile as he leaned in closer, his lips almost touching hers; she could feel his warm breath against her face. "I promise you, Mrs Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizada, that when I am done with you tonight, you won't even remember Salman Khan!" Her eyes opened wide, as Arnav carried her in his arms and threw her onto the bed. He pulled his shirt open, threw it away and jumped on top of her.

Khushi ran her fingers on Arnav's chest, playing with the tiny black hair, as she rested her head on his bare chest. Arnav nuzzled against her hair, kissing it occasionally as he caressed her bare back and arms. Khushi giggled and Arnav looked at her, "What's with the giggle, biwi?" Khushi raised her face to look at him, resting her chin on his chest as she said, giggling, "I was just thinking.. if I am going to be showered with love like this, then I will never call you, never carry my phone with me and always tell you how much I love Salman Khan!" Arnav raised his eyebrows and screamed, "What?" Khushi laughed and leaned closer to brush her lips against his. "I was kidding, my pati parameshwar. I love you." She put her head against his shoulder and snuggled closer to him. He leaned towards her and pressed his lips against her, then pulled her closer to him, saying, "I love you too!"
