Today is 6th June 2013. 2 years back on this date a show was aired on Star Plus at 8pm for the first time. That show gave us a new meaning to Love n Relation. It gave us two characters Arnav Singh Raizada and Khushi Kumari Gupta who now stay in our hearts. They have brought the world together n connected them with love. That show was none other than Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon. So I would love to wish to all fans Happy 2nd Anniversary of the most remarkable n unforgettable show.
I was overwhelmed by the response I got on my first piece of work. I had expected 50+ likes on my OS but got 130+ likes n 15+ pages of comments. I was on cloud nine. I am thankful to all those who have read n commented on my work. I really means a lot to me. Your comments have encouraged me. I may have not replied to all the comments but I felt very happy after reading them. Thanks a ton.

After this long blah blah here goes the 2nd n final part of My Truth.
PART 2
All the marriage rituals were done n the newly wedded couple was standing on the door of Raizada Mansion to complete the rituals n enter the house.
As per the rituals grahpravesh (welcoming new bride) was done and Arnav picked up Khushi n entered Raizada Mansion. The bride was taken to the room which was decorated with red n white flowers, well lit by candles. The smell of rose n lavender filled the room. Arnav entered his room n found Khushi at the centre of his bed. His princess was in red-green lehnga (Indian skirt) with golden work on it, gold jewelry, red-green-golden bangles and gold maang-tikka with minimal make up. His presence made Khushi tremble n she raised her eyes to find his prince charming in red-golden sherwani. Her heart was running so fast that it could win gold medal in Olympics, if tired. He sat besides Khushi n held her hand.
Arnav – Khushi r u scared. (He asked very softly.)
She nodded a no but her eyes spoke the truth. Arnav thought of something and then continued.
Arnav – Khushi how did u find this house. Did u like it?
Khushi relaxed a bit at the change of topic n started talking about the mansion n then Anjali n then dadi. Arnav slowly made her lie down n he crept besides her listening to her resting his head on his palm.
Khushi – You know I never thought that someone could fall for me at first sight.
Khushi was all relaxed n talking to Arnav.
Arnav – Why so Khushi? The way I was looking at u anyone could have guessed.
Khushi – Of course I guessed that u r squint.
She said that n realized what she spoke n covered her mouth with her palm.
Arnav – What The…!!! You thought I was squint. (He was surprised.)
Khushi had no words.
Khushi – No.. Ar…nav. I ju…st.
Arnav was done with her comforting business and now wanted to start some important business. He went near her ears n spoke.
Arnav – What Khushi? Say it.
Khushi then realized their position. She was lying just besides Arnav. 'Stupid Girl, u forget everything when u start talking.' She thought.
Khushi – I just felt that u r …(She couldn't say that word again). What should I think when a person is not ready to stop staring. (She spoke defending herself.)
Arnav was enjoying all this. He wanted to take the discussion to another level. He smirked.
Arnav – How did u think when I had kissed u Khushi?
Khushi could now see what was coming her way. Her Staring Raizada was very intelligent. First he made me comfortable n now he is back on track.
Khushi – I don't know. (She just blushed n turned her face to other side.)
Arnav turned her face back and spoke.
Arnav – I think u have forgotten Khushi, let me remind u then.
And with that he captured her lips. Those trembling lips were dominated by his hungry lips and were making her week till knees. She kissed him back with affection n love. The kiss got a break when much needed air made them part away. Arnav saw tears in Khushi's eyes n was shocked. May be she was not ready for this. May be he was going too fast. He felt bad. He cupped her face n wiped those tears.
Arnav – Khushi, why r u crying Angel? I m sorry Khushi. I didn't mean to (n Khushi kept her finger on his lips.)
Khushi – You have all the rights on me Arnav. (She said with all affection.)
Arnav – They why are u crying Khushi?
Khushi – May be due to happiness. (Arnav was like What The… but she continued.) Arnav, I always wanted my own family, a loving n caring husband, two kids, family member, in short a perfect life. But that accident shattered my dream. I lost all hopes Arnav. But then u came in my life, with light n happiness. Everyone accepted me with my truth. I am the luckiest girl on this earth. I don't know when but I have also fallen for u. Arnav, I Love You.
With that she hugged him. This confession was needed before they start their new life. He was contend. Khushi trusted him n moreover loved him. The girl in his arms was his. He possessed her. The most beautiful n innocent girl in this world belonged to him n he had all the rights on her.
He broke the hug n replied 'I Love You too Khushi.'
Meri adhoori kahaani
Lo daastaan bann gayi
Ho Tune chhuaa aaj aise
Main kya se kya ban gaya
My incomplete story,
has finally become a (complete) story..
You touched me today such that
I became all different..
He started kissing her face n kissed every inch of it. He kissed her forehead n removed the mang-tikka kissing her vermilion.
Sehme huey sapne mere haule-haule angdaiyaan le rahe
Thehre huey lamhe mere nayi-nayi gehraiyaan le rahe
My afraid dreams are slowly stretching..
my stopped moments are taking new depths..
He removed her dupttaa n then started kissing her ear while removing her earrings. She was all lost in his touch n was in some other world, which was pure n full of love. He then trailed her lips to her neck kissing her n removing her neck piece. She had submitted herself to his husband, n her journey from a girl to a woman had begun with his man.
He then removed her bangles kissing every inch of her arm. He wanted to kiss her everywhere.
Zindagi ne pehni hai muskaan
Karne lagi hai itna karam kyun na jaane
Karvat lene lage hai armaan phir bhi hai
Aankh num kyun naa jaane
O Saiyyan...
my life is wearing a smile,
and I don't know why it's showing so much compassion..
my wishes have started twisting n turning but-
don't know why, my eyes are still wet..
O my love..
He turned her around, removing her blouse he kissed her back. She was shivering in pleasure under him. He closed his eyes n was taking in every bit of her. He turned her again n kissed her over her bra.
Slowly moving down towards her stomach he kissed n licked her giving utmost pleasure to her. He removed her lehnga n kissed her legs till her toe. He looked at his life partner lying on his bed, in his room all his forever. He had kissed almost every inch of her. He removed his clothes n came over her.
Odhu teri kaaya
Solah sigaar main saja loon
Sangam ki ye raina isme tyonhar main mana loom
Khushboo teri choo ke kastoori ho jaaun
Kitni pheeki thi main sindoori ho jaaun
I wear your body,
should decorate (myself with all) sixteen adornments..
this night of meeting,
I wish to celebrate a festival in this..
I wish to touch your fragrance,
and become musk,
how pale I was,
I wish to be like vermillion,
Kissing her lips he reached for her bra. Removing the piece he played with her breast kissing n licking them. He marked them with his bite n she hissed more in pleasure then in pain.
Then finally reaching to her core he asked for her permission n removed the last piece from her body. He was all over her n her naked body fitted with his completely.
Sur se zara behki huyi meri duniya thi badi be-suri
Sur mein tere dhalne lagi
Bani re piya main bani baansuri
Zindagi ne pehni hai muskaan
Karne lagi hai itna karam kyun na jaane
Karvat lene lage hai armaan phir bhi hai
Aankh num kyun naa jaane
O Saiyyan...
a little diverted from right notes,
how inharmonical my world was..
I started molding to your tune,
I became a flute,
my life is wearing a smile,
and I don't know why it's showing so much compassion..
my wishes have started twisting n turning but-
don't know why, my eyes are still wet..
O my love..
Giving her core some pleasure with his finger, he entered her but with a precaution. The precaution was much needed. He could not risk her life. She moaned his named and clutched his shoulder leaving marks on them. After reaching the climax they realized. They were breathing heavily n he rested his head in crook of her neck. His hot breath was fanning her neck n sending shivers to Khushi.
Mere aasmaan se jo hamesha gumshuda thay
Chaand taare
Tune garrdishon ki lay badal di
Laut aaye aaj saare...
O saiyyaan..
from my sky
those who were always missing
the moon and stars,
you changed
the tune of haze (can say clouds here)
and they all came
back today..
O my love...
Lying in each other's arms they were completing n complementing each other. The next morning would be a new beginning for them.
*************************
1 year n 1 week later.
Khushi was sitting in her washroom holding a stick in her hand. That stick showed two dark pink lines on it. She went back to the night a week before, on the day of their first wedding anniversary. They were so happy. A party was organized by Arnav at his farm house n entire Delhi was invited. She recalled the way she insisted him to stay back at the farm house n get intimate with her. He didn't wanted to because he didn't had precaution with him, but Khushi made him lose his control by her mischief n teasing. She didn't know that doing it once without precaution would lead to this. She was pregnant. She was pregnant with Arnav's child. The symbol of their love was there inside her.
Any girl would be on cloud 9 after finding the fact but Khushi was scared. What an irony it was.
She reached Anjali's room n sat beside her on bed. Anjali saw her bhabhi tensed. She was about to speak something but her eyes fell on the stick Khushi was holding. She saw the stick n jumped on Khushi hugging her make her fall back with jerk.
Anjali – Ohh my god bhabhi, u r pregnant. I so so sooo happy. Congrats bhabhi.
Anjali's smile fell when she was hit by reality.
Anjali – I m sorry bhabhi. I forgot. (She felt bad.)
Khushi – It's ok Anjali. (She gave her a week smile.)
Anjali – But bhabhi, how can u…I mean, it's not possible. The doctors said that there are complications. Then …
Khushi – I know Anjali.
Khushi was all blank she didn't know what to say or do. She was pregnant. She wanted to be a mother. How could she let this go? She looked at Anjali n spoke.
Khushi – I want this child Anjali.
Anjali – Bhabhi, this is not good for u. We won't let this happen. You are more important for us bhabhi. (She was adamant.)
Khushi – But Anjali.
Anjali – No bhabhi. We can never risk your life. Have u told this to bhai.
Khushi – Not yet. (She was scared of Arnav.)
Anjali – Let bhai decide then. Just tell her bhabhi. And promise me u won't risk your life bhabhi. Never forget that not only bhai but I also need you. (She just hugged Khushi n Khushi hugged her back.)
In this one year, Khushi stood besides Anjali like a friend n cared n pampered her like a mother. If she would lose Khushi she would shatter.
*********************
After dinner Khushi entered her room n found Arnav on recliner working on his laptop. She smiled at him n went inside the washroom. Arnav realized that something was wrong with Khushi. There was some going on in her mind, n she was hesitating to share with him.
When she came out Arnav held her hand took her to the poolside under the stars.
Arnav – What is it Khushi? Tell me.
Khushi was not surprised at all. It was hard for her to understand that how every time Arnav was able to read her mind n find that she was upset. She knew she couldn't hide this with Arnav. He had the right to know about it.
She held his hand with both her tiny hands n looked in his eyes to get some strength. She was absorbing strength from the person she was scared of. Another irony. But this is life, strange still beautiful.
Khushi – Arnav I am pregnant. (She spoke with utmost calmness.)
Arnav firstly could not register what she said, but then his expressions changed from confusion to happiness and then to shock.
Arnav – How is that possible Khushi? You must be kidding right.
She just lowered her gaze. Arnav recalled their anniversary night. He jerked her hand n went in, followed by a more tensed Khushi.
Khushi – Arnav just listen to me. (She tried to talk to him.)
Arnav – What should I listen to Khushi? I told u that was risky, but u were not ready to listen. It's all my fault, Damn it. (He punched his fist on the wall. He was highly upset n angry.)
Khushi – No Arnav it's not like that. (She tried again but in vain.)
Arnav – Then what is it like Khushi? Will u care to explain me? U r pregnant, for god sake. Due u get that. (For the first time he was shouting at Khushi.)
Khushi – I know Arnav. (She spoke softly.)
Arnav – Then u must know this fact that I won't let u keep this child Khushi. (His heart broke at those words. He knew he will never forgive himself for this but he could not cost Khushi for the baby.)
Khushi was in tears now. She had heard something which she feared the most. She held her hand tight n requested.
Khushi – Please don't do this Arnav. Please, I want this baby. It's our baby Arnav. (She was trembling.)
Arnav – Khushi after knowing the fact that it's risky u wanna keep this baby. Have u lost your mind. What if something happens to you?
He was still very angry but this time he didn't jerked her back. He knew she needed him.
Khushi – Nothing will happen to me Arnav. I can feel that. (Her tears were flowing down.)
Arnav – Complications n risks doesn't depend on feelings Khushi. They depend on conditions n your condition is not good. It's my baby too n I have the right to decide.
Khushi kneeled on the floor holding her hand crying. He too kneeled down n cupped her face, wiping those tears he spoke.
Arnav – Khushi the day I married you I had decided that if there will be complications we will never plan our child. I want you with me Khushi. I cannot harm you for the baby Khushi, why don't u understand that.
He made her sit back on bed.
Khushi – Arnav dadi wants heir of this family. And I know u wanna be a father. Don't u.
Arnav – Did dadi say anything to u Khushi?
Khushi – No Arnav she didn't but I know she wants her family to be complete n even I want a baby Arnav. (She tried to convince him.)
Arnav – Having a baby doesn't always mean u have to give birth to a child. We can adopt a child Khushi. Rather u can adopt as many kids u want Khushi. But please don't think of giving birth to a child. (He requested her.)
Khushi – But that adopted child won't be our part Arnav, he won't be the symbol of our love.
Arnav was done with his convincing. She was adamant. He stood in anger n spoke.
Arnav – K fine Khushi, if u r not ready to listen to me then I am done with it. If u are so keen to keep the child then I will leave u. (Khushi was all shocked.) I will leave this place, this country n will never come back. U stay here with our symbol of Love. So choose for yourself Khushi, you want me or the child.
With those words he left the room.
Khushi was in deep thought. She was aware of one thing, she cannot go against him. He was his world. It was their baby n he also had the right to take decision. And if she will think deeply then she will be able to find a way to convince Arnav.
An hour later she went to the study where Arnav was. She went in n found him sitting on the chair, his eyes closed n head on head rest. She went near him n keeled down holding his hand. Arnav opened his eyes to find his angel smiling at him.
Khushi – Arnav I will follow whatever u will say but before that can we consult the doctors regarding my condition. (She suggested him with a hope to hear a yes from him.)
Arnav thought for a while. He knew how important the baby was for Khushi n for him as well, and he should consider what Khushi was saying.
Arnav – K Khushi we will visit the doctor tomorrow, but promise me u won't leave me, ever. Promise me Khushi, u won't harm yourself. (He too was on his knees besides Khushi.)
Khushi kissed his cheek n replied, "I will never leave u Arnav. I am always with u." And she kept repeating those words n kissing his face. Arnav cupped her face and kissed her lips. It was needed after those moments of pain n sadness. He deepened the kissing and soon they were on floor, Arnav lying above Khushi kissing her madly.
They parted for air n Arnav scoped her in his arms n brought her back to his room. Lying on top of her he made love to her with utmost care. This night was not of passion or seduction but a night of comfort n assurance.
****************
The next day, after an hour of checkup of Khushi the team of three doctors, one burn specialist and two gynecologists called Arnav to their room.
Doctor – Mr. Raizada your wife is pregnant. Do u want this child?
Arnav looked at Khushi n replied.
Arnav – Yes doctor but not at my wife's cost.
Doctor – So Mr. Raizada, as per current conditions your wife is perfectly fine. But actual condition will be clear after fourth month. Complications can come at any stage, but will not affect your wife. And if she is taken care of well then she will be able carry forward this pregnancy.
Khushi was very happy n so was Arnav. He squeezed her hand.
Arnav – We will take care of her well, Doctor.
Doctor – K Mr. Raizada but u need to know certain things, it will not be a normal delivery, she will be able to conceive again but getting pregnant for the second time will harm your wife, so don't thing about that, and most importantly it's very early but still m telling u, she may not suffer labor pain. So u all will need to be very careful in the last time.
Arnav – I completely understand this Doctor.
Doctor – And now some precautions, she needs to work less n rest more, try to keep her away from flames n heat, proper food diet n medicines, 1 hr walk daily, my assistant will teach her some exercises which she will have to do daily n lastly visit us in every 15 days, so that we can see her condition.
After Arnav was done with his discussion they came back n told everything to dadi n Anjali. They were very happy. A wish was being granted n dadi was the happiest.
Arnav made Khushi lay on bed and he sat besides her holding her hand. He had tears in his eyes.
Arnav – I will never be able to forgive myself for the words I used for our baby Khushi.
Khushi – Please don't say like this Arnav. I know u love our baby. (She wiped his tears.)
Arnav – Khushi I couldn't do anything when my parents die. I always regret that day Khushi. If I would have been there in that car, maybe I would have tried to save them Khushi. I couldn't do anything then. But I would not let that happen now. I would never risk your life Khushi. Promise me Khushi u will never leave me. (He poured his heart out)
Khushi – I promise u Arnav. I will always be with you, forever.
Khushi knew that she was important for this family and Arnav n Anjali were not less than her kids. How could she leave them?
A nurse was appointed for Khushi during office hours of Arnav. Dadi or Anjali used to stay with Khushi all the time.
Khushi did face some complications but her determination n families support helped her coping up with them.
***************************
Khushi was in her eighth month pregnancy and it was her baby shower.
A grand function was organized at Raizada Mansion.
She wore a red designer sari with all sorts of gold jewelry and Arnav wore a designer white kurta. Khushi's face was glowing not due make-up but due to happiness. She was too fat to even walk properly. Arnav helped her reach the stage.
Everyone blessed her n gave her gifts. Dadi n Anjali were the two proud family members, coz of Khushi. Firstly she was the most beautiful girl in the entire Delhi n secondly her determination was giving them great grandchild n nephew/niece respectively. Khushi's family was also happy to see their daughter happy.
Soon the ceremony ended and Khushi was taken back to her room. Arnav was on leave since Khushi had stepped in her eighth month.
At night the same day, they laid besides each other n chatted for long. They were talking about their baby when suddenly Khushi asked him.
Khushi – Arnav what do u want?
Arnav was surprised for a moment but then understood what she was asking. He in no mood to reply straight replied.
Arnav – I want you Khushi. Can I?
And with that he started approaching her. Khushi just blushed n pushed him back.
Khushi – No u can't have me. And I was asking u that u want a girl or a boy.
Arnav – Ohh u were asking that. (He made a sad face.) I thought u were ready to fulfill my wish. (He winked.)
Khushi – Please Arnav, tell me, u want a girl or a boy. (She asked cheerfully)
Arnav – I want an angel just like u Khushi. (And he kissed her forehead.) And what about u?
Khushi – I want a prince just like u. (And she kissed his cheek.)
Arnav – I doesn't matter Khushi what we get. I just want u n the baby to be safe. I don't wanna lose either of u.
He rested his head on her chest. Khushi kempt his hair n soon they were in deep sleep.
Arnav woke to find Khushi sleeping. He went near her n kissed her cheek. Her cheeks were hot. He touched her forehead n found her burning. He tried waking her up, but in vain.
Arnav – Khushi, get up Khushi. Damn it. Khushi, say something. Khushi talk to me damn it. This is not funny.
He rubbed her hands but she didn't move.
Arnav was shattered. All moments spend with Khushi came in-front of his eyes.
Arnav – Wake up Khushi. I am telling u to wake up damn it.
His attempts failed miserably. Khushi didn't even move an inch.
He picked her up in his arms n ran towards his car without saying anything to anyone. Placing her safe besides him he drove like a maniac. Soon he reached the hospital.
Khushi was taken to the emergency room immediately. After examining her for half an hour the doctors came out. Dadi n Anjali had also reached the hospital with Khushi's family.
Arnav – How's my wife doctor?
Doctor – She is unconscious n her condition is not fine at all. She and the baby both are suffering from high fever. I am afraid we will have to operate her right now. We will try our best to save both but…
Arnav – I want my wife to be safe doctor. Do anything to save her.
Everyone was shocked. According to them Arnav was over reacting. But no one knew what Arnav was going thru at that stage. Some time back his Khushi was not replying to him n now he is on a verge to lose her. He was out his mind. He was not thinking about what may lose but he knew he had to save whom.
Khushi's operation went for 3 hours. Doctor came out with a smile on his face.
Doctor – Congrats Mr. Raizada, u have become a father. It's a girl. Both baby n your wife are fine.
Arnav was in tears. His world was back to him. Now he had two angels in his life. He hugged the doctor n thanked him for saving his world.
Arnav – Can I see them?
Doctor – Sorry Mr. Raizada u cannot see the baby just now. She is 6 weeks premature baby so we have to keep her in incubator for 2 days. Don't worry she is fine. Your wife is unconscious, she will gain consciousness in 2 hours then u can meet them.
The doctor went away wishing the entire family.
Anjali came n hugged Arnav.
Anjali – Bhai the sad phase is over. We need to welcome the new member of our family with a smile.
