(Link to thread 4)Thread 3: And he Returned - Page 81

As they came out of the elevator, Arnav bumped on shruti. He frowned and looked annoyed but khushi gave him a look to remind him his promise.

Arnav sighed and gave a fake smile. Khushi smiled at shruti.

Khushi: shrutiji, I have a good news for you.

Shruti looked at her nervously as arnav was standing infront of her.

Khushi shook her head to arnav to fulfill his promise, but he gave her a annoyed look but then changed his expression and looked at shruti.

Arnav: uhh' shruti? Did you have your breakfast?

Shruti looked at him puzzled.

Shruti: huh?

Arnav was annoyed. Why does he need to repeat to her?

Arnav: did you have your breakfast?

Shruti: oh! Ah! ' no. wh.. why did u ask?

Arnav: no just asking.

"This laad governor will never say 'I forgive you' or 'I'm sorry' to ANYONE in his life"-khushi thought grumpily. "Oh well he does SOMETIMES to me but that doesn't count."

Khushi: Arnavji has forgiven you, shrutiji

Shruti: WHAT?!

Khushi: YES!

Shruti: O MY GOSH ARNAV!

With that she threw herself in arnav's arms and seemed like she would never let go. Arnav gave an irritated look to shurti and then to khushi but smiled forcefully when she pulled back.

Khushi: you said you didn't have breakfast yet? Let's have it together!

Arnav: WHAT THE?!

Shruti jumped in excitement when khushi offered to have breakfast with them but stopped when she heard arnav. both khushi and shruti looked at him.

Khushi: uhhh.. yes yes , Arnav, I know you're worried that I haven't had my breakfast yet but no need to say 'what the'. we're going now.

She tried to tried to brush it off so that shruti doesn't get a hint that Arnav is still annoyed.

Arnav: WHAT THE?!

Hearing khushi's reply which was a "changing-chapter" , one could say, he got more irritated. , Arnav was confused at what KHUSHI was doing. He was more of mad at her as she added SHRUTI when they should have her OWN time for breakfast.

Arnav: Khushi YOU-

Khushi: ME'. I'm having my breakfast RIGHT NOW. Let's go

Not letting arnav finish his sentence, khushi folded one arm around shruti and and another around Arnav and headed to the restaurant.

Khushi went to the restaurant and khushi pulled a chair for shruti beside her but she ignored her and went to sit right beside Arnav which didn't go unnoticed by Arnav. He fumed at shruti's behavior towards HIS wife and was about to say something when the waiter came and gave the menu.

Arnav pulled a chair on his left and made khushi sit right beside him putting an arm around her waist. Shruti gave an annoyed look at that.

Shruti holding Arnav's arm: OMG! ARNAV! thank you SO MUCH! Thank you so much for forgiving me. YOU TRULLY have a really big heart.

Shruti understood that she needs to do something to get khushi out of here. Or she wouldn't be able to make her doubt that there IS something between her and Arnav.

Shruti purposely spilled the water on her and pretended that she didn't notice.

Shruti: O MY GOSH! KHUSHI! I'm SO sorry! I'm SO SORRY KHUSHI! I didn't notice and-

Arnav: YOU NEVER NO-

He was about to burst at shruti because of what she's been doing for the last few minutes but then remembered khushi;s words. but he was ASR, he can't back off when he says anything. So he completed his sentence but without shouting at her.

Arnav: you never notice anything shruti.

He said not looking at her.

Khushi: no it's okay shrutiji. I'll just go to the washroom. Don't worry about it. Happens.

Khushi went to the washroom. Arnav got busy with his mobile.

Shruti: let's order the food.

Arnav: don't you wanna wait for khushi?

Shruti: oh well she can order after she comes. Let's order now. I'm super hungry.

Arnav: well then order. I'm gonna wait for Khushi.

Shruti got really mad at that.

she purposely untied her hair and pulled her dress a bit down to show her upper part but fumed when he saw Arnav wasn't paying attention to her, or not even looking at him.

Shruti: uhh' Arnav.

Arnav : what?

Shruti: THANK YOU FOR FORGIVING ME!

Arnav: you've already said that 10 times shruti. Let's move onto something new.

Arnav was still busy with his mobile. Shruti held his arms and continued

Shruti: tell me, how's your business going?

Arnav: good

Shruti: And how's everyone in your family?

Arnav was surprised at her question and looked at her. not even in their college days had shruti asked about his family!

Arnav: woah! How come you're asking me about family?

Shruti looked at him for sometime. But arnav didn't want to sound rude and thought about his dear wife. So he looked at his phone again and continued.

Arnav: they're fine.

Shruti: Arnav?

Why the hell can't she just STOP?! ' he thought

Arnav: What?!

Shruti: you're still the same. You haven't changed at all since the last time I saw you.

Arnav: really?! but I can see myself changed a lot.

Shruti: Nooo! You're still the same. just like you were in the college, MY ASR!

When khushi came out of the washroom, she saw shruti holding Arnav's arm. She could see Arnav and shruti's back and noticed how they were clinging to each other. As she came back to the table, she heard the last two words, "MY asr". Her smile faded at that. Arnav was too busy with his mobile so didn't pay attention to what she said. But when Khushi came, he automatically looked up and saw her pale face.

Arnav worried: You're okay, sweetheart?

He has the time to look at that bitch but not this hot girl sitting beside him. GOSH!- shruti thought irritated.

Khushi was still looking at shruti.

Arnav waved his hands infront of her eyes and khushi came back from her trail of thoughts.

Khushi: huh?

Arnav: I asked, 'are you okay?'

Khushi: oh yah, yes! So did you guys order?

Arnav: no we were waiting for you.

Khushi: oh you should have ordered, Arnav. you gotta take your meds as well.

Arnav: well, I wanna have breakfast with my wife. Got any problem with that?

Arnav smirked and

khushi sighed .She knew there was no point of arguing with her stubborn husband. So she sat on the chair and got the menu and they started to choose. As they were finished choosing, Khshi started to order for herself and Arnav. As khushi started to order all the oily food for herself, shruti started.

Shruti: Eww! Why those oily food? I hate oily food so much. I feel suffocated when I eat them. like ewww! Who eats that?! pimple is its side effect!! Don't you care about your skin?

Arnav was REALLY furious now. He ignored what she's been doing for the last few minutes, but it has become beyond bearable now.

Arnav greeted her teeth: WHAT THE HELL IS'..

Khushi held his hand under the table and gave a look to remind him about his promise.

But ASR wasn't a man to let go of such things where his wife is included.

Arnav: oh well. MY khushi is exceptional, shruti. She doesn't get pimples like you when she eats "oily" stuffs. And as far as ordering is concerned, I think it should be what "SHE" prefers to get her empty stomach filled. Not yours, hm?

It was a bad idea to say it infront of arnav, shruti thought.

Shruti: oh! Oh ya of course. Anyways, me and arnav is gonna order our favourite dish. Spicy Thai inspired noodles with mushrooms! You know khushi, it's our FAVOURITE dish since our college days, right Arnav.

Arnav: oh absolutely NOT shruti. I don't like it anymore. Infact I have started to hate it 3 days back.

He said as if to indicate his hatred towards her yet with a fake smile and Shruti's face paled.

Khushi: but arnav, you lov-

Arnav: Khushi, I'm actually thinking to order some oily food today. i don't know I just feel like having some.

he looked at shruti and

Arnav: told you. i have changed a lot!

Khushi: but arnav-

Arnav looked at the waiter interrupting khushi.

Arnav: so whatever she ordered , just make it two.

Khushi knew he doesn't like these oily food. And it wasn't good for his health either. SHe knew why he was doing all that. khushi sighed as she knew she can't change the order for arnav now as he was sitting right beside her. He smiled at her and she gave a concerned look. Arnav put his arm around her waist to reassure her and continued eating as the food arrived, totally ignoring shruti. Seeing shruti bored, khushi started to talk with her but she didn't have any interest in talking to khushi. so feeling annoyed she just ate hers and went to her room. ARnav smirked
