ARSHI FF:Unconscious Love!(c)#5 Ch28/29Pg139 12/03

"arrey beta what happened? OMG! Arnav fainted?" khushi's mom panicked as Arnav still acted as if he had fainted holding Khushi resting his head on her shoulders. Khushi gritted her teeth and rolled her eyes.

"Mom, this guy is'"

"Khushi what are you waiting for? Let him in, hari prakash please help Khushi to get Arnav inside the house".

Khushi's mom walked inside the house while Arnav whispred near khushi's ears, I know how to keep promise".

Khushi's mom was about to dial their family doctors name while Khushi sat on the sofa placing arnav's head on her lap and glaring him occasionally fuming inside.

The line almost got connected when Arnav said in a dramatic tone "Khushi!" holding his forehead.

Khushi's eyes widen in shock looking at his drama.

Arnav held her hand and tried to get up. She whispered "nautanki kahin ka".

Arnav looked at her and winked in such a way which only she could see. She made and face and looked otherway.

"beta, what happened?"

"erm! Aunty actually Khushi was in a hurry to reach town that's why she did not let me eat anything while coming back and as I was driving I couldnot eat anything".

Khushi's mouth formed and "O" hearing his lies. She thinned her eyes and whispered lie gritting her teeth.

Khushi's mom slapped her on her shoulders and said "will you ever stop irritating him?"

Khushi smiled evily and said, "oh mom never its my birth right".

"shut up Khushi, this isnot funny at all, he fainted and you are joking?"

"whatever" she rolled her eyes.

"Beta, I don't think it is fair to go to home tonight. Why don't you stay back?"

"Arnav ke man mein ladoo phut rahe the, he couldnot have asked for more".

"Mumma, I can drop him home".

"chup kar Khushi, why are you behaving so insensitive?"

"Mumma, why you want him to stay here?"

"Khushi! As if he never stayed in our house before".

"don't you dare think of shifting me to the gurst room and him to my room. I am not going to share my room with him".

"Khushi!"

"Its ok aunty, never mind, I understand her privacy, I will be fine in the guest room", with that he winked Khushi once again.

"aaggrh!" she screemed and thumped her foot on the floor and rushed to her room.

Mrs gupta looked at her daughter and her face fell.

Arnav came beside her and hugged her from behind, "Mom! Don't worry, I know how to deal with her".

Mrs Raizada looked at him, her heart filled with joy hearing Mom from her Arnav. She so wanted to hear that from his month for long time. And now when he addressed her, she did not know how to react.

"Mom, I have promised her that I will sleep with her so that she doesnot need to have her sleeping pills".

"you mean'you mean she did not take her meds there?"

Arnav nodded in denial and mrs gupta's eyes became teary.

"Mom, manga hai maine aapse uska haath, ab umra bhar nibhaunga". (I have asked her hand from you, now I will take all her responsibility). She loves me a lot, but she is unable to cope up with it. I will make her remember everything but it will take time. Her condition is still very vulnerable".

Mrs gupta caressed his cheeks and tapped slightly "mera beta hai tu". (you are my son).

Arnav smiled and looked up towards khushi's room, "mom can I sleep in her room?"

"I trust you beta" was her reply.

"We will never break your trust".

"I know" she pinched his cheeks and asked him to go and freshen up.

"Miss Khushi Kumari Gupta, kuch din ke liye yahan hi sahi, cannot wait to see you in my house and in my bed'no our house and our bed again" he thought and smiled mentally.

Khushi was appling her moisturized when her eyes fell on her ring finger. She smiled remembering the invisible ring that he made her wear. Touched the finger a small smile escaped from her lips.

She heard the door knock. Frowning she checked the time. It was 1am. She closed her eyes in frustration and walked towards the door. Keeping her hands on her waist she said, "I am not letting you enter aranv, just go away".

"Khushi! Open the door".

"No"

"Please don't fuss"

"I am not going to open it Raizada".

"Khushi!" he knocked again.

Khushi crossed her hand and stood leaning on the door.

"I am coming in, that's it".

Khushi giggled and replied "have you got Mr. India's bracelet? How can you enter when the door is shut and locked?"

"Don't dare me".

"Really? Chalo I dare you Raizada, try to get it".

"umm! ok, but what would I get if I come in?"

Khushi bit her nails and replied, "anything you ask".

"soch lo, baad mein pachtaogi to nahi?" (think about it once again, later you will not regret it I hope)

"I know you cannot, but still tell me what you want".

"I want you to kiss me in front of the whole college"

"Arn'."

"and on my lips".

"Fine".

**

She watched the clock, 5 mins lapsed and there was o sound from outside. She was still standing leaning on the door wondering what he is upto. To be honest she was having fun, she felt a rush in her adrenaline she did not know why. But spending some good naughty time with Arnav was surely making some difference.

"So gaye kya?" (have you gone off to sleep or what?"

"Naaahi''" was a throaty reply, she heard and straightened herself.

She flushed her ear on the door trying heard to hear him out.

"Khu'.khsuhi"

She got alarmed. She was trying to figure out from where his voice was coming because she was sure that it was not coming from the door.

Suddenly she saw 8 fingers near her window.

"aaah!" she freaked out.

"hey devi maiya, bhooot!" she screemed again.

"Shut up, its me come and help before I fracture my back.

Khushi swaned her neck to have a close view, he heart skipped a beat seeing Arnav practically hanging from the window pane.

"What the?" she screamed and rushed towards the window.

"are you mad? Tumhe kuch ho jata to? Kisne bola pipe chadne ke liye? I am so mad at you".

"Khushi! Help me yaar".

She touched her hand and helped him to climb up.

Khushi practically chocked when his legs slipped one moment but he steadied immediately.

One he was inside the room she looked at him furiously and started hitting him on his chest.

"I hate you"

"but I love you" he said with a smirk.

"I hate you to the core", she punched him again

"and I love you to the core" he smirked again.

"stop it Arnav!" she hit him again "agar tumhe kuch ho jata to? This isnot funny" (if something happened to you then?)

this time he held her arms and looked directly in her eyes "aagar mujhe kuch ho jata to?"

"arnav!" she took his name in a painful tone

"to kya Khushi?"

in no time she hugged him tightly and stood in his embrace without uttering any word further.

**

Khushi climbed down the stair and went strainght towards the kitchen. Hugging her mumma and wishing her good morning she said, "kya bana rahe ho aaj?"

Mrs gupta knew why she asked that, so just to see her reaction she said "roz job anta hai wohi banega" (whatever we make everyday, I am making that)

"Mom, Arnav aya hai, and ussey noodles pasand nahi hai, woh nahi khayega. Cant we make something else?"

Mrs gupta was overwhelmed hearing her daughter, she had least expected her to remember what Arnav likes and moreover these things never concerned her in the past. This was not the first time he came in their house.

Khushi checked the fridge and took out one potato. She smiled and said, "Arnav ko puri sabzi pasand hai".

Mrs gupta raised her eyebrows in amusement and said, "achha?" (oh really?)

"haan mom and woh bhi mere banaya huya".

She took out some more potatoes and started washing them in the sink while ordering HP to knead the wheat flour.

"pata hai mumma, ramu kaka taught me how to prepare puri sabzi, I am quite good at it and he loves puri sabzi".

She chopped the ingredients and started preparing the sabzi. Once she was done she smelt it and felt happy.

"mumma, its done".

Mrs Gupta kissed her and went outside.

"HP, aap puri ready karke lao, I am helping you with the table decoration".

Mrs gupta, couldnot believe, was she the same Khushi, forget about cooking, she never went to kitchen and today she was preparing food for the person she loves the most woh bhi itna manse.

"Arnav!" she screemed "your breakfast is ready hubs come down, otherwise you will be late for your coll'.", she couldnot complete her word when reality hit her.

She was shocked.

She saw the food

She remembered each and everything that happened in the kitchen few minutes back.

She who never made a tea for anybody in the house has made a meal for Arnav?

And who is ramu kaka?

How come she knows that Puri bhaji is arnav's favourite dish?

How can she cook so well?

She was sure this wasnot the first time.

She tasted the aloo and it was delicious.

A pair of eye witnessing her once-upon-a-time wife being the same person what she used to be in his house.

He whispered, "come back to me".
