PART 3 (A)
After making all the needed corrections and changes and satisfied that the presentation was now upto the mark,Arnav Singh Raizada finally his eyes up from the laptop screen.It has been demanding but he has manged to got the whole thing it back on track.The standards and ethics of AR will never be compromised with.
He laid back on his seat closing his eyes.And then the familiar sounds reached his ears,the chiming of the bangles and the twinkling of the anklets signalling her arrival.
His eyes closed,he let the soothing sound work its magic on his exhausted nerves.He heard the door creak open and smiled inwardly.The only person who could enter his cabin without knocking and had no qualms about it.Even Aakash used to come to knock as per the office decorums.His heart overwhelming with love as he once again basked in the knowledge that she truly was the only exception in his life.
"So Mrs Raizada,how come you are here this time".Arnav spoke with eyes still closed.
Khushi's eyes widened hearing his voice,she knew he hasn't seen her because his eyes were closed as she has seen while climbing the stairs from the glass window and she hasn't even made any noise.But this Laad Governor always has to get his way.
"How do you knew it was me when I didn't even made any noise?".Khushi spoke out grumpingly.
"Seriously Khushi,don't tell me you really an answer to it".He said opening his eyes looking at her amused as they always sense each other presence.
It was then he took in her appearance.He stared at her awestruck dressed in the saree he has chosen for her on the day they have got married in the temple as they remember that day now.Her wrists adoring the bangles he has gifted her,her Mangalsutra etherally adoring her neck void of any other accessory,her partition shining with vermillion,she was a vision to behold.
Letting her read the open appreciation in his eyes,he didn't missed the mischievous glint in her eyes that made her senses alarmed instantly.

She was here at this time not that it was a something unusual,but most of the times she used to come after finishing her work so that they can go home together.He was busy deciphering what her little mind was cooking when she saw her slamming his laptop shut.Next she picked up his phone from the table and switched it off before fishing it in her bag.
"What are you doing Khushi?".He asked out expressing his obliviousness to the whole sitiuation.
Before Khushi could answer and put his husband's worried mind to rest,they were disturbed by the knock on the door.Aman greeted Khushi with a smile and then told him.
"ASR,I have got the that final draft of the presentation ready and the meeting is scheduled on Monday.Apart from this,there is nothing that requires your immediate attention and if there will be ill call on Khushi Mam's phone".
"What The".He groaned,did his personal assistant just told him that there was nothing which required his presence in his own office.He saw Khushi thanking Aman for being so courteous,clearly she has planned something and has got Aman party to it.Well,who has it in them to say No to her,she was like that infectious,his Khushi.
Aman left shutting the door close behind them and Arnav walked towards her in slow measured steps making her step back instinctively as they did their favourite dance of stepping ahead and back until her back hit the door and he held her captive,rooted to her position by putting his hand on the door.
"Whats happening Khushi?".He asked seriously this time.
"We are running away Arnavji".She replied chuckling
"Really!".He confirmed fully enjoying seeing her this way.
"You have been so occupied offlate,So I thought that a little break would be good for both of us".She finished smilingly.
Khushi felt pleased with herself for coming up with this idea.They really needed to spend some quality time alone and once she has decided,she has wasted no time in putting her plan into action.
She has asked Naniji who has enthusiastically given her consent and though she was subjected to Mamiji's teasing of them.Both whisking away every now and then,she knew that in her heart she was truly happy for both of them.And then she has made Aman clear off his schedule for the next two days which wasn't a big thing either as her husband always aced on his responsibilities.
He bend closer to her,his breath fanning her face and Khushi found her heartbeats going erratic.Scandalized she looked at the glass window and let out the breath she was holding to find the blinds closed.She shut her eyes tight knowing that one look and she would melt into a puddle.
"I didn't know that you have become a pro at creating romantic moments,But I don't mind the more the better".He whispered huskily in her ears and then looked up to find her nose turning his favourite crimson red.
"Your nose,its again red".Flicking her nose,he stepped away.
Picking up his laptop bag,he held her hand and smiled at her.The smile that he has only reserved to her and to know she was the reason behind that smile.Khushi felt her insides melting.She would do anything to make sure that smile always remain intact.

Mr and Mrs Raizada walked out hand in hand wishing their employees an enjoyable weekend ahead.Opening the door for Khushi as per his habit,he took his place behind the wheels.As he adjusted the rearview mirror,his eyes caught the bag already placed on the backseat.She has surely put in a lot off effort,he mused to himself.
"Since,you have planned all this to perfection.Will you care to tell where are we heading too?.Arnav asked not hiding his appreciation a bit.
"When Mrs Arnav Singh Raizada puts her heart to something,how it can be anything else but perfect".Khushi supplied smugly.
"I thought you were smarter than that Arnavji".She added supressing a giggle seeing his confused expressions.
Deciding not to tease him anymore,she leaned in and kissed his cheek affectionately and said "Our getaway".
He didn't needed to hear anything else as he changed the gears and took the turn towards their farmhouse.The place that will always remain special to them for their own reasons and which has over the time turned into their secret place whenever they felt the need to get away from everything for a while.
Losing themselves in each other,the next two days passed too soon for them.Totally cut out from the outside world,they didn't need anything else as they had what they needed to be content and blissfully happy their other half by their side.
The laughs,the tender touches,the smiles,the baseless chatter,holding hands and staring at each other without battling an eyelid for God knows how long.Each and every small action and gesture bonding them more intricately and profoundly with each passing moment.
