Part 5
"Hame maaf kar do bitiya...hame maaf kar do", Garima says with her tears flowing continuously.
Bua ji comes to Garima and says, "Bas karo Garima.. Bas karo... Hamri titaliya doosron ke kaaran kitne dukh sahi.. Aur nahi... Ab aur nahi... Tum rona band karo"
*Anjali and Naani start crying again. Shyam and Daadi are expressionless! Babu ji looks helpless. Khushi is unable to speak a word*
NK calls Arnav and gives him the good news that Khushi has regained consciousness. Arnav immediately runs to his car. Forgets to fasten his seatbelt, (which he never forgets!) and drives faster than he's ever drew to see his lovely lady.
With great difficulty Khushi tries to speak a few words. "Hu..m...ya...haan?"
"Arn..av..ji...kaha..ha..i?",she asks.
"Chote aaye rahe hai bitiya. Aap aaraam kijiye, aapko uthne ki kono zarurat naahi hai", says Naani and pats her cheek.
"Ham..ari am..ma nird..osh hai...Un..ki koi galti na..hi hai.", she says, defending Garima.
Mami ji stands up to say something sarcastic, but before she could utter a word, NK takes her outside and requests her not to say anything which might hurt others. Mami stops her blabbering.
Arnav reaches the hospital and runs to the ICU faster than Usain Bolt. He opens the door to find Khushi lying on the bed, looking at him.
They look at each other for a while and Khushi turns away. Silently she weeps. Arnav, slowly goes to her...touches her soft cheek and looks at her. He was too happy to shed a tear and too sad to say a word. It felt like an ice which burnt in fire...Two different emotions flooded his mind.. He did nothing but stare at her with a mixed expression.
All of the others in the room leave the two people alone.
Khushi turns back to him.
"I...am...
...I am sorry Khushi", Arnav apologizes.
Khushi is confused about what to say. She looks at him expressionlessly.. Her eyes looked soulless...lifeless..dried up... Though she had a million things to ask and say, she remained silent..
"Say something Khushi... I am really sorry... I know I hurt you... But I was confused.. I love my mother too.. I know I was late, but I came.. Only for you... Because I knew you were faultless.. Tumhari koi galti nahi thi..."
Khushi still remained silent..
