Khushi Singh Raizada could not contain her excitement. It was her sweet sister-in-law's first day at office. That brings a whole lot of reasons to be excited. She wanted to jump, she wanted to dance ...and she was doing that. Nani was smiling indulgently at her antics and Mami was gaping at her, muttering a "hello hi bye bye!!! Ee to laagat hai khisak hi gayi phinally!" ( Hello hi bye bye!!! She has finally lost it).

For Khushi, it was a day of realizing her dreams, through her sister-in-law's eyes. She was doing what Khushi always wanted to do. So what if Khushi never got the chance to be a business woman, she will help Di in anyway she can. This gave her an idea.

"Naniji! Hum soch rahe hain ki kyu na aaj tiffin hum khud lekar jaayein? Aaj Di ka pehla din hai kaam ka, aur hum chahte hain ki unhein lage ki hum sab unke saath hain, poori tarah se. Aur unhein apne saamne khana khila denge to humein bhi tasalli ho jaegi."

("Naniji! I was thinking, why not I take the tiffins to office myself? Today is Di's first day at work, and I want her to know that we all are with her, in every way. And I will also be relieved that she is well fed if I see her eat in my presence.")

"Haan haan, zaroor bitiya!! Aap bhi jaiye aur saath mein payal bitiya ko bhi le jaiye aur aap log bhi wahin khana kha leejiyega, Aakash bitwa aur Chhote ko bhi achha lagega. "

("Yes sure bitiya!! You can go and take Payal bitiya along with you, and do have your lunch there itself, Akash bitwa and chhote will be pleased too.")

"Ji Naniji! Hum abhi jiji ko bol dete hain ki wo taiyaar ho jaayein."

("OK Naniji! I will go and ask jiji to get ready.")

Hence the two Raizada bahus made their way towards AR office. Upon reaching there, Payal took Akash's tiffin in her hands and barged directly into Akash's office, since she had been there previously, in her courting days. "Akashji!" She started, but then stopped seeing her brother-in-law and her husband , who seemed to be having some serious conversation, jerked their heads violently upon sudden disturbance.

"Payal ji!!! You here? Is everything fine at home?" Akash asked , with a bit worry seeping in his voice.

"Ji haan, everything is fine. Actually I thought that I should myself bring your lunch today..." Payal's voice trailed, sensing the anger of her brother-in-law.

Arnav badly wanted to reprimand Payal for her childish behavior, but then thought against it. It won't do good to scold the wife of your brother, he would talk to Akash later. So he calmy collected his file and said to Akash "Take your lunch and meet me in my cabin in 45 minutes." With that he left the cabin.

Akash watched his brother going, and then with a sigh turned towards Payal. "Payal ji, I would have cleared my schedule if you would have told me in adavnce." Payal , who was already mortified due to her behavior , bowed her head and mumbled a sorry. Akash shaked his head, and with a smile on his lip, said teasingly to her " Chaliye, lets see what is the delicacy you have brought today, one which wouldn't let you rest." Payal giggled at his effort to make her smile and started arranging their lunch at his table.

Arnav left Akash's office in a very bad mood. He never liked it when people mixed professional and personal life, and he was irritated that from now onwards he would have to bear his brother's romantic life in office also. He was going towards his cabin when he stopped suddenly...roses!!! He could smell roses!!! In his office!!! What the hell!!!

He started moving his neck to see for the source of that enchanting smell, but couldn't find any. And to irritate him further, the smell was getting faint by each second.

"Arnav Singh Raizada!!! Get a grip." He scolded himself and with a final shake of his head, moved towards his cabin. As soon as he opened the door, a fresh waft of the same roses smell touched his olfactory senses, making him close his eyes involuntarily and taking a deep breath. One second, two second, three seconds...sanity returned and he opened his eyes wide. "What the f...!! Where is this damn smell coming from?" He started inspecting everything in his cabin from the same place he was at, at the door. No, nothing was changed, the table the chair, the racks, the paintings- everything was same. Has any of his things started emitting such beautiful scents??

He entered in his cabin, banging the room shut. He started examining everything critically. The paintings, the side table, the chair, the eyes, the table...wait, what?? EYES?? His own eyes moved back a fraction, to see a pair of hazel eyes peeking from below the table..then a nose appeared, then beautiful plumpy pink lips, then a chin...in almost a second he could see his wife of three months emerging from beneath his working table, looking like a child caught stealing cookies and waiting for the scolding to start.

"Dekhiye!!! Isse pehle ki aap hampar chillana shuru karein hum aapko bata dena chahte hain ki hum kuch gadbad nahi kar rahe the. Hum to yahan Di ke liye khana lekar aaye the. Hamne neeche kisi se poocha ki Anjali ji ka karma kahan hai to wo hamse poochne lage ki hum kan hai, aur jaise hi hamne kaha ki hum Arnav Singh Raizada ki patni hain, unhone hamein yahan pohancha diya. Wo to humne aapka saaman yahan dekha tab hamein samajh aaya ki hum to aapke kamre mein hain. Aur hum ja hi rahe the ki hamse ye kagaz gir gaye, aur hum unhein utha rahe the ki..."

("See!!! Before you start shouting at me I want to tell you that I wasn't spoiling anything. I had came here with Di's lunch. When I asked someone to show me her cabin, they asked me who I am. As soon as I told that I am wife of Arnav Singh Raizada, they took me here. It was when I saw your things here when I realized that it is your room. And I was just leaving when mistakenly these papers fell down, and I was just picking them up when...")

"RELAX DAMNIT!" Arnav cut her in between her rant, which effectively shut her up, while his mind was thinking "So this is where the roses' sweet smell was coming from!". "Tum kya saans liye bina bole chali jati ho? Main tumpar nahin chillane wala hoon, so take it easy." Arnav saw her visibly relaxing at his command. Her shoulders eased, her wide eyes returned to their normal shape and her poor dupatta was finally freed from being shredded.

"Ji...main..wo...hum Di ko tiffin dene ja rahe hain. Aapka tiffin kahan rakhein?" ( " Ok...I..that..I am going to give Di her tiffin. Where should I keep yours?" ) Khushi stuttered, then finished her sentence with visible efforts.

She wanted to get away from him, he realized, as soon as possible. Why so, his curiousness piqued, for his heart didn't like the fact that this enchanting endearing smell would faint away soon after she went.. But then ASR emerged. He decided it wasn't his business to know what his proximity did to Khushi for her to want to get rid of his nearness.

"Di is taking interviews. It would take her another half an hour before she gets free, or may be longer than that. You can give her lunch to me, I will have it delivered to her when she gets free." ASR told the girl standing in his office.

"Ohh.." he could hear the dejected note in her voice, "hamein laga tha aaj hum unke saath...khair koi baat nahin. Ye raha aapka tiffin. Hum jiji ko sath lekar ghar jaate hain." ("I thought today we will together...anyways, never mind. Here is your tiffin. I will take jiji with me and go home now.")

"Payal is having lunch with Akash" he thought his duty to tell her, then suddenly a thought crossed his mind, and before he could stop himself he blurted out "Did you have your lunch?" The next moment he smacked himself in his mind. How was that his concern?

"Umm...wo hum ghar jaake kha lenge." Khushi replied without looking in his eyes. She was very hungry and could eat a whole box of jalebis right now if given, but she would have to wait till she gets home. How was she gong to survive ride back home??

"Did you come here to have your lunch with Di?" ASR was getting angry now. He was not used to being dismissed like that.

"Yes. But now that she is busy. I will go home and have my lunch with others. I will leave now, Jiji can come later." Khushi still adamantly refused to see him in eyes.

Great!! Just great!! His brother was having a nice lunch date with his wife in his cabin, and here his wife was standing in front of him and telling him that if she could not have her lunch with his Di, then she will return home and have her lunch there. He wasn't thought to be worthy enough of eating with her. Well, she doesn't know who he is. And he was definitely not going to let her go now, without having lunch with him. Who is she to decide that he is unworthy to have lunch with her.

"Eat with me" ASR ordered.

"Ji?" Khushi was perplexed. As it is hunger was making her brain work slower.

"I said eat with me." ASR repeated.

" Kya?? Hum aapke saath...nahin!!!" Khushi was flabbergasted. She had to concentrate on his words to hear them, coz rumbling of her stomach was loudly echoing in her ears.

"Why? Would your precious self-respect get hurt in eating with your rich husband?" ASR bit out, his words laced with bitterness worth a barrel of neem.

"KYA?? Aap kya bole ja rahe hain?? Aur hum aapke saath kaise khana kha sakte hain?" Khushi was still not getting it, what has happened so suddenly. And it was delaying her getting home and having her precious rajma- chawal and jalebi.

" Kyu nahin kha sakti ho? Main bhi dekhta hoon kaise nahin kha sakti ho. Chupchaap wahan baitho aur mere saath lunch karo." ASR was not having it any other way.

" Par aapke dabbe mein sirf aapke liye khana hai.." Hunger was making her weak by now, and she was emabarrased that Arnav Singh Raizada might hear her stomach rumblings. It was better to eat then get embarrassed by either that way or by fainting.

" Hum Di ke tiffin mein se lunch kar lenge. Di can have mine." ASR had solution to every problem, now wasn't he smart ladkio?

"Ji." Khushi was way too happy to finally getting to eat something , to give attention to the fact that who was going to give her company that day.

This was the first unusual lunch date of Arnav Singh Raizada with his wife, Khushi Singh Raizada; though none of them realized it that day.

res Edited
