Part 15
Suddenly the door opened...It was Anjali and Samrat.
"Aha I-" said Anjali pointing her finger at Arnav.She lowered her finger noticing Khushi "-did not know this"
Arnav and Khushi took a step back from each other and stared at Anjali in shock.
"See I told you" said Samrat "He is not becoming some sort of thief or becoming part of the underworld"
"Well the way he kept lying,it was possible" retorted Anjali.She looked back at Arnav and Khushi.She squinted her eyes at Khushi remembering seeing Arnav and Khushi in a close position.She looked back at Arnav and raised her eyebrows "Would you like making some introductions?"
Arnav hesitantly nodded "Di,this is Khushi and Khushi,this is Di"
Anjali smiled at Khushi "Hi..my name is Anjali and I am his older sister and this is my husband,Samrat"
Khushi smiled back and nodded her head in acknowledgement "Um...I should go see where Preety is"
As much as Arnav wanted to make her stay...he had no choice but to let go since he knew Di wasn't going to be going anywhere.He watched as she left the room and sighed.He looked at Anjali who was also looking at the door.She turned to Samrat facing her back to Arnav.Arnav took that chance.He quickly raced to the door but stopped when he heard her voice "Not so fast Chottey" Arnav closed his eyes wishing he had been quicker.He turned around slowly to see Anjali with her arms crossed against her chest and Samrat behind her smiling."I see we have many secrets to uncover"
Arnav knew that his di knew everything but probably wanted an explanation.Arnav scratched the back of his head "Well..um...I love Khushi and she loves me-"
"How long has this been going on?" interrupted Anjali.
"Almost a month"
"And you didn't tell us?"
"I was..busy"
"I can see that" Anjali took a seat on a chair gestured Arnav to sit on the chair across.Arnav sat down while Samrat took another chair.Anjali grinned "Tell me how you guys met and everything" Arnav took a deep breath and began explaining how they met at a camp and everything,leaving out the night they spent together. "So when are you guys planning to marry"
"Hopefully soon" said Arnav smiling.
"Wow Arnav..I never thought a guy like you who doesn't believe in love would fall in love...and that too with such a lovely and traditional girl"
Arnav smiled.He felt his phone vibrate.It was a text message from Khushi. 'Mehendi is over now.I am going home now.Bye'.Arnav widened his eyes and stood up.He looked at Anjali and Samrat "Ah..I have to go"
"Of course you do" teased Samrat.
Arnav ignored the comment and ran outside.He looked around.There was nobody...which meant Khushi left.Arnav sighed.'Maybe next time'.
*****************************************************************************
Khushi reached home.She locked the door and turned around.Mardav was sitting on the couch.Khushi glanced at him.Mardav turned his head and looked at Khushi and smiled.He had never smiled at her and Khushi didn't know why but she smiled back nonetheless.'Maybe he doesn't hate me anymore' thought Khushi happily.She went to her room.The day after tomorrow was Preety's wedding.She was so excited.She felt her phone vibrate.It was a text message from Arnav.'Meet me tomorrow at the park near your house at 8:00 am'.Khushi smiled and typed back 'Okay see you tomorrow'.
*****************************************************************************
The next morning Khushi got ready and went off to the park.The park was wide open with only a few people wandering around.One of them was Arnav sitting on a bench looking at his phone.Khushi felt her phone vibrate.It was a message from Arnav 'Where are you?' She smirked and decided to play around with him.
'I am getting ready.I'll be there within 30 minutes'
Arnav widened his eyes looking at his phone.Khushi giggled.'30 minutes! We agreed on 8:00 not 8:30'
'Sorry I needed my beauty sleep'
Arnav rolled his eyes.Khushi went up behind him and covered his eyes with her hands. "Guess who"
Arnav smiled and held her hands "Hmm...Angel!"
Khushi uncovered his eyes and sat next to him on the bench."Why do you call me Angel?" she asked curiously.
"Because you look like one.In fact if you had wings,I would definitely think you are an angel" answered Arnav. Khushi blushed "Come.."
Arnav took Khushi to a corner where there was nobody.Khushi looked at him in confusion.He smiled and bent down on one knee and brought out a box with a ring in it.
"I know I have talked about marriage many times..but I never got the chance to propose.So I am doing it now..Angel...I really love you and am willing to spend my entire life with you if only you give me the chance.Will you give me the honor of being my wife and my everything?Will you marry me?"
Khushi grinned and smiled at his confession and proposal.She nodded and whispered "Yes"
Arnav got up slipped the ring on her finger "Thank god you said yes..I was so afraid you would decline giving some kind of meaningless excuse"
Khushi playfully hit his arm and hugged him tightly.He wrapped his arms around hers and smiled.Suddenly he frowned.For some reason he could feel Khushi's weight falling on him.He pulled Khushi away from him and gasped seeing her falling backwards.He held her.Khushi's eyes were closed.She had fainted.
