Arnav came down the stairs...tagging Khushi along with him...Naniji looked up and said... Going out...

Mamiji...oh another outing...honeymoon-wa...too much...
Khushi blushed and Arnav didnt say anything...
Anjali came smiling and said...good two are going out... Payal and Akash have gone for biz meeting and we all are going to the temple...n even OP is taking the day off...so enjoy it...
Arnav and khushi were going in the car and khushi said...where r we going???

A...Khushi...its a surprise...so chill plz...
K...making faces and said... OK...
A...smiled and drove on...
They reached a nice hotel and it was called... Chatkharay... The spicy place...
Khushi read it out loud and looked at Arnavji and said... I have never been here...
A...good...lets go...
They went in and they were made to sit in a nice secluded place...and khushi could smell the spice and the sweetness in the air...
She said... Arnavji...is it what I think it is...
Arnav smiled and winked at her and said...patience...
The waiter came with the tray and served them Gol gapas and left...
Khushi squealed...Gol guppas...
Arnav laughed at her expression...Now feed me...
K..here...looking here n there...
A...ya...no one will disturb us...come on im hungry...
Khushi happily made gol gapas and fed him and would clean his face '.then Arnav also tried making few and fed khushi...taking them and me back to the time when Arnav had his first gol gapas...
A...remember that day at Buajis house...
K...smiling...yes...i remember...But I was so scared to feed u then...
A...really why??
K..well u use to be so angry and I was so scared of u...i though u would bite my fingers off...
Arnav laughed n said... n now... feeding her a gol gappa...
K...Now im not that scared...You only look scary...
A...really...
K...oh lets not get in to this...
After that they had some more food and then jalebis...
Khushi ordered gol gapas to take home...
When they reached home...the house was silent... Arnav smiled n said...i have to make an imp phone call then im all yours...As they were going up the stairs...Khushi stopped and turned... Arnav said...what??
Khushi pointed towards the sofa... and motioned Arnav to go n investigate there... When Arnav went there he said...What r u doing here??
Aarav was sitting behind the sofa...Arnav took his hand and looked at khushi...She motioned him to bring him to their room and went ahead...
She found them by the pool area...and she asked him...where is ur mom??
Aarav...she has gone out...
K...so u were all alone at home??? Remembering that everyone had gone out...even op...
Aarav...im a big boy... im not scared...
Khushi looked at Arnav and then asked...r u hungry...
Aarav...ya im hungry...
Khushi went down n got food for him...
When he saw the gol gapas he screamed...im not gonna eat that...And looked at Arnav for help...
Arnav...i reacted the same way when I first saw it...but try it...its good...

Aarav looking at Arnav...it must be her fav...thats y u like it...
Arnav laughed and said...well try it...
Khushi...if u dont like it, ill bring u toast n juice...
Aarav checked it n said how do u eat it?
Khushi made one and ate it...
Aarav...it wont fit my mouth...
Arnav laughed again and said...try it...
Khushi crushed the puris and mixed the chick peas with it and added few sauces and fed him with a spoon...
Aarav opened his mouth reluctantly and took the morsel in his mouth ...eyes closed...and started chewing it...and then he looked at Arnav n said...its good...
Khushi opened her mouth n said...why cant u tell me its good...
Aarav..taking the bowl from her hand said...ill eat it myself... and walked at the far end of the pool...leaving them alone...
Khushi moved near Arnav...he caught her hand and said...Dont u fall in love with him...im warning u...
Khushi turned to look at him...and he looked into her eyes...they were teary...dont...remember he has to go...soon...
