Uhhmm, so just a few words before you read the chapter; I feel overwhelmed due to I-dunno-what for continuing this FF once again. It's my first FF and I am back with a bang with it! You'll see that I've changed the whole story prior to this update, so stay tuned and we'll see what happens next!
~Chapter 6- Dream or Reality?~
"Arnav!" Khushi shrieked. "You disgust me! Leave me!" she strived to ease herself from his grip but he held her tighter. As she endeavored to push him away, she could feel her soft body bumping briskly on the floor. Her breath hitched and her heart was pounding out of her chest. In a blink of her eyelids, she found her whole body resting on the flooring, just near her bed, attired in her night gown, her face clad with sweat and her whole body puffed due to the lurid happenings just a few minutes ago. It took her a while to grasp that all of it was a mere nightmare. Glancing sideways, she was greeted by Lavanya's "siesta" figure. She was really sleeping like a log, unaware of the pins and needles her best friend had just virtually gone through. Khushi dawdled up her bed and rested her face on her pillow still alarmed by that dream. She stared at the ceiling and all that she could perceive was Arnav. A myriad of thoughts were playing in her mind. What if Sheetal had really instigated vile about her to Arnav? What is Arnav had misinterpreted my intentions? What if they were really planning to avenge themselves on me? What if Arnav was really thinking low of me? What if this dream turns out true? What if? She stopped pondering for a while and closed her eyes. It seemed that sleep was far-flung from her that night. She managed to recuperate her serenity but still felt insecure; insecure about what? She really didn't know. What was etched in her mind was only that Arnav and that they shared an unique bond of friendship; that's what she named it which she at no cost wanted to lose due to some Shit-al!
"Sleep Khushi! Sleep! Vaise bhi, jaise kaha jata hai, sapnon ka koi matlab nehi hota hai! Anyways, as they say, dreams denote nothing! They are just delusions and ye lo! Raat ka sapna kabhi sach nahi hota hai; sirf subha ka sapna sach hota hai! Night dreams can never be true; it's only morning dreams which can be the reality. Chill Khushi! You have a whole day of hard work coming up tomorrow; come' on forget all these stupid dreams! Hay Bhagwaanji sapnon ke beech main kahan phass gayi? Oh God! Where have I been sandwiched between all these dreams?" Khushi rebuked herself. "Sleep tight Khushi! Good Night! Good night Lavy! Sleep well; good night Devi maiyya! Good night amma, good night babuji, good night jiji! Good night Oxford! Good night everyone! Arre! Sleep now Khushi!" she buzzed.
"Good night Arnav!" she grinned and retired; totally forgetting about the hazardous impact of her dream, on her, that night.
************************************
The next day at school was a typical Oxford school day, but quite hectic due to the preparations of the fresher's party. Khushi was as ecstatic as usual but was quite apprehensive whenever Arnav turned up before her which was not disregarded by Lavanya. Upon Lavanya's inquiry, Khushi simply shrugged off the topic by making up pretexts. Arnav too was dazzled by Khushi's conduct but preferred to overlook it so as not face the wrath of Sheetal. He approached Khushi a number of times but she incessantly shunned him each moment. Khushi did feel bad for her dishonorable behavior but she had no other alternative than this to remain secure; for she was greatly influenced by her last night's dream, or rather nightmare. She succeeded pretty well in her mission "Avoid- Arnav!" but missed his company.Lavanya was too gripped with her new friend NK, that she totally forgot about Khushi which , on the other hand was totally secluded.
Being jaded by herself, she logged in her Facebook account, just to switch her mood. Little did she know that it would be worst!
"What the!" Arnav squealed seeing a weeping girl on the staircase of the school corridor. He despised seeing people crying; he just couldn't abide the fact that these people had so much water in their body that they had to eradicate some of it by crying. He bypassed that girl, focused on his way when he perceived her eyes, black hazel eyes; her cheeks, those milky rosy cheeks; her nose, that red nose; he had surely seen that captivating damsel before; he was sure of that. That was when he saw her face, her cheeks reddening momentarily, her face attired with a fresh batch of tears, her huffs and puffs and it was Khushi! She was crying. He felt a knob in his gorge. "So untypical of Khushi," he thought, "Khu'Khushi? What happened to you? I mean'"
"What do you mean? By'by what happened? Can't you see? You blind man! I' I am'I am weeping; can't'can't you see? Dumbo!"
"Oh!" Arnav made a comprehensive look and said, "I mean, why are you crying?"
"It's' none' of' of' your busi' business!" she said with a stern look, her nose flaring up each second.
"Okay; so'" Arnav was at a loss of words; he didn't know what to reply her. He could have said, keep crying or continue the crying process or crying is bad for health or he didn't know! He thought thoroughly, carefully formulating his words and finally said, "Yeah; you are right! I think I should leave. Continue crying because of I-Don't-Know-What matter. Bye! See ya."
"STOP! What kind' of guy are you- a gir--girl is in such-- such in a bad state and' you--you are leaving her alone, helpless and--an--an--and going? SHAME ON YOU!" she admonished him.
He was amused; he was really amused by her behavior. "Do you know crying is a sign of weakness? And I personally---" Arnav tried to say but again he was cut off by Khushi.
"What do you know? What do you know?" she shouted
"What do I know? What do I know?" Arnav replied back.
"Oh! SHUT UP! Crying is an expression of grief over something that has hurt you to such an extent that you cannot bear it. It's not a sign of weakness; what you are doing is a sign of weakness! Are you scared? Scared of consoling a girl! Shame! Shame! Shame!"
"Oh! Miss encyclopedia! I am not scared of anything!"
"Ha! Very Funny! Then why are you backing off?"
"I--"
"It's all because of you! You are at fault!" Khushi screamed.
~PRECAP~
"Khushi, calm down, tell me what happened?"
"No!"
"Khushi, please?"
"NO ARNAV!"
"Khushi please Khushi! Sheetal, what? Did she do anything to you? Tell me! Come on!"
"NO Arnav! I can't! Please understand; it's too vile what she said; I can't."
"That's it! You are going to tell me what is the matter; and that too RIGHT NOW! And if Sheetal did something erroneous, she'll have to face my fury! WHAT HAPPENED?"
