Part 12
After Arnav left the coffee house, Khushi too got up to leave.
Khushi: Lavanya.. It was nice meeting you.. I would have loved to spend some time with you, but then I remembered I have some work. So may be we could meet later.. Hope you wont mind?
Lavanya: No .. Not at all.. We will meet soon though..
Khushi smiled and hugged her and she left them alone..
She drove straight to her home. His words, his taunts were pricking her. He talked as if it was all her fault that they had such a worst relationship between them. He would never agree he was at fault or he did anything wrong.. She reached her home and then went straight to her room. She needed some time alone..
***********
Lavanya and NK were still at the Coffee shop.
NK: See .. I told you.. They can never be together at one place with each other. They just hate each others presence..
Lavanya: You are right NK. But may be we can try something.. I know its not easy for any girl to forgive her husband after seeing what he did on their first night. But then this is even more bad to be in a relationship like that for years without each others wish. If they dont want to stay together, I think Nani should take her 10 years condition of making them stay together back. This is unfair. They can atleast lead their lives seperately rather than being like this.
NK: True Lavanya.. I think you can may be talk to his Nani..
Lavanya: I will..

Another 2 days passed, Arnav was in his office working. He could see it was going to rain heavily tonight. And not just that it he also had seen in the news that there would be a storm tonight. He had to leave home early knowing there would be a lot of traffic on his usual road.
He took his car keys and left the cabin. He started his car. He saw the road was almost jammed by traffic ahead. He took another route . Though it was a long one, he had to as he didnt wanted to waste time in the traffic. The route was not that occupied. He saw a car parked at the left hand side and a girl in a yellow chudidar asking for a lift. When he came a bit closer, he realized who she was. She was Khushi.. He parked his Car at the side and got down.. She saw him and then turned the other side..
Arnav: Get in.. I will drop you Khushi..
Khushi: No thanks. i can manage.
Arnav: Your car has been broken down and you were asking for a lift. Its too late.. You wont find anyone here at this time. So get inside my car.. Now..
Khushi: Why do you care so much Mr Arnav.. Only because you my husband for name's sake? Ohh Well you dont have to show your worry for me.. I can manage my own things.. Just get off here..
Arnav was pissed. WHy does she always needed to show so much of ego to him?
Arnav: Fine.. Your wish.. Stay here and wait for some rowdy guys to come and attack you..Dont repent later for not getting dropped by me..
Khushi gulped when he said that.. She too was scared a bit.. It was so late and there was no one at the road. This time was not right to wait here for some other lift.. Her phone was not working.. And she couldnt even call anyone to come and pick her..
Arnav removed his mobile from his pocket and called up NK..
Arnav: NK.. Arnav here.. 158, Malabar road, Eastern way.. Come and pick your sister.. Her car has been broken down.. And she is not fine with me dropping her..
Khushi was surpirsed.. He actually was helping her? Ohh!! She very well knew such Husbands.. THey would always remain the same.. They wont care for their wives but then when the matter comes of her safety, they would do anything possible from their end..
NK: What? Her car broke down.. Ohh My God!! Ok.. I will come there now.. But there will be a lot of traffic on way ASR. I mean I can be late..
Arnav: She should understand that.. Not me..
NK: Just pass your phone to her.. I will talk.
Arnav passed his mobile to her and she took it..
Khushi: NK.. I will wait till you come here.
NK: No Khushi.. Its too late.. Its Jammed everywhere.. I cant keep you waiting.. Just get his help and ask him to drop you.. Please.. Dont show your attitude atleast at such times.. And moreever its gonna rain heavily tonight.. Do you want to get drenched? Please.. Just take his help.
Khushi looked at Arnav who was looking somwhere else..
Khushi: Okay.. I will ask him to drop me..
NK: Better.. Pass the phone back.. I will talk to him
She passed the mobile to him and he answered..
NK: ASR.. Please drop her.. I have told her not to wait there for me.. Hope its Ok with you..
Arnav: Fine..
He kept the call and moved towards his Car.. She took her purse and followed him. He opened her side door and she sat inside.. He then started driving..
They hardly drove for another 10 minutes silently when Arnav's Car's tyres bursted and he had to apply full breaks to stop the car aside.. He got down from the Car and thecn saw that two of his Car Tyres got punctured.. He hit his leg hard on that tyre feeling frustrated.. Khushi saw him doing that anf got down too..
Khushi: Well Well Well.. One needs to check his own systems first before helping others..
Arnav: Shut up.. This is not my fault ok?
Khushi: Well.. Now that you have taken my responsibilty so whole heartedly, I dont care.. You need to srop me home SAFELY.. Doesnt matter what you need to do for that Mr Arnav.
Arnav: Did I deny dropping you? No right.. Then stop your buslshit talks for a while and lemme think..
Khushi turned the other way and then looked at her watch.. It was already 11:00pm now..
Arnav: Ok.. Let me call home.. May be they cam send us some vehicle..
Khushi raised her eye brow asking him to do what he wants.. She is not bothered ..
Arnav saw his mobile and tried calling.. But due to network congestion he wasnt able to call. He in anger dropped the keys of the Car down on the road and he did that so angrily that it hit a stone beside and broke.. Which meant now the Car was locked and they were outside. They couldnt even sit inside the CAR..
Khushi: Great Arnav.. This is the least thing I expected you to do.. But I should have know whom I am with..
Arnav was very much angry on her.. But this was his fault.. It started drizzling now and they had no shelter nearby..
Khushi: Wow.. Another mishappening for tonight.. Its gonna rain and we have no shelter.. I dont want to get drenched.. So do something fast.. I cannot wait here outside for long..
Arnav pulled her hand and started walking towards some nearby place which was an old garage kind of place but it was vacannt.. No one near by.. She tried to make her free from him but he had clutched her wrist tightly so she couldnt escape.. They came inside.. It was quite dark and Khushi was a bit afraid..
Arnav: Fine.. I guess we are safe here..
Khushi: I am not safe anywhere where I am alone with you.. Ok?
Arnav looked at her questioningly..
Arnav: Excuse me.. What does that mean Khushi?
Khushi: You very well know what I mean..
Arnav: Fine.. But do you think we have any other way to get out from here? Its gonna rain heavily and we dont have a shelter other than this.. Ok?
Khushi moved inside and started checking if she could get some nertwork on her phone.. But there was no network here too..
There was hay everywhere inside and she could see some Wood logs and a match box.. She immdiately bent down to lit the fire on the Log of food to illuminate this place a bit..
He could see her trying to light the place and she wasnt able to do so as the wooods were wet..
Arnav: They are wet.. They wont lit..
Khushi stopped doing that and started searching something..
Arnav: What are you searching now?
Khushi: You shouldnt be bothered.. When you cant.. I can do that..
Arnav: What?
Khushi: I am searching a lantern here..
Arnav: And you think you will find it in this place?
Khushi: I dont keep thinking.. I act..
Arnav: Really?
Khushi found the Lantern and she smiled showing it to Arnav..
Arnav: Where will you get oil from?
Khsuhi had almost forgotten that.. She made a low face and looked down.. He never saw her like that before.. She was like a small kid.. She first argued, then tried to prove her point and when she felt she would be losing, she tried to hide it.. Goshh!! Why was he thinking about her, he thought..
