Part 12

*drip*

*drip*

Arnav's eyes fluttered open as he felt another drop fell on his cheek. His hand went to his cheek and he felt something wet. He opened his eyes fully. He turned his head to his left and then lifted his head to see the source of his disturbance. It was dews that had formed on the leaves. He again turned his head to look at the sleeping Khushi and Abeer. Stretching his legs he got up from the mattress. A cold breeze passed through the poolside and he saw Khushi shiver and drag the comforter more on her. Shaking his head he bent and took Abeer in his arms. Entering the room, he placed him on the bed and again went out, to the poolside. Picking Khushi in his arms he went inside the room and placed her on her side of the bed. Covering them both with the comforter, he again went out to pick the mattress. As he was about to get up, after picking the mattress, his eyes landed on the X-mass tree. He saw the socks hung there, empty. He went and kept the mattress inside the room. His mind went towards the empty socks hanging outside. The face of all happy and smiling Khushi flashed in his mind. He took in the sleeping form of Khushi. Not wanting to see disappointment on her face, he exited his room to go down stairs.

Arnav entered the kitchen. He went and opened the fridge. Wandering his eyes inside the fridge, he got what he was looking for. Taking few packets of chocolate bar he went upstair. Entering the poolside, he went towards the Christmas tree. Bringing out the chocolate bar from his pocket,he filled the socks with the chocolate bar packets.

...

Arnav entered the dining area, all ready for office to see everyone present there. Placing his coat on the chair, he sat down

"Hey, Nanav. All ready for the office?" NK asked, all smiling.

Arnav looked at NK and nodded his head.

"And Khushi, how was your Christmas party?" NK asked to Khushi, who was serving Nani.

"It was so much fun, Nanhe ji. I and Ebu enjoyed very much" Khushi replied, smiling.

"And Nanhe ji you know what? My empty socks were filled too..." Khushi chirped.

Arnav's eyes snapped at the smiling Khushi.

"Really? What was in it?" Nk asked, excited like a five year old.

"Chocolates! Loads of Chocolates..." Khusi replied, smiling ear to ear.

Nani looked Khushi's smiling face and than at her Grandson, who was fidgeting with his pancakes, as if he was about to get caught. And she knew, who the Santa was.

"Accha Khushi, Bitiya! That's why there are no chocolates left in the fridge. So who was the Santa here? Manorma you?" Nani asked to her daughter-in-law.

"Hello Hi Bye Bye! Hum raat ko sirf beauty sleep let hai. I don't plays Santa Santa.." Mamii declared that she had no hands in this.

"Toh, Nanhe aap?" Nani asked NK.

"Me? I Came back at four'o clock in the morning Dadi and then slept like a log. So no I wasn't the Santa.." NK came out clean.

"Hmmm...So, the only left one is...C..." But before she can complete her sentence, her very own Chhote got up from the chair.

"I have an important meeting. So I will leave now..." Arnav said, abruptly and taking his coat he exited from the scene.

Nani bit her lips to control her laughter.

...

"Hmm...Ebu...what do you think? Who had filled our socks with Chocolate?..Mami ji told she wasn't . Nanhe ji too told that he had not kept that chocolates. So who?...Do you think it's Hari Prakash ji?" Khushi asked her Son, thinking all serious.

Abeer looked at his Amma, lying beside her, resting herself on her elbow, thinking of something.

"No...it can't be , Hari Prakash ji. He doesn't lives here at nights. So...hawww...so the only person left is Arnav ji...Ebu do you think Arnav ji kept the chocolates?" Khushi looked down at her Son with wide eyes.

Abeer rolled on his Stomach and jumped on his Amma.

Khushi giggled seeing him all excited and placed her hand around him, securing him close to her.

"And we were on bed when we got up...I think he brought us here too...What do you think?" Khushi again looked at her Son.

But Abeer was too busy kissing her Amma's cheek to give any answer to her.

"Ebu, he bought ring for me, allowed us to celebrate Christmas and also played our Santa, don't you think that we should do something for him? And stop kissing me, you can do that afterwards!" Khushi chided her Son.

Abeer stopped his act and looked at his Amma's serious face with a pout.

"Awww...I am sorry, Ebu" Khushi kissed Abeer, making him again smile.

"But let me think. Do you have any idea?" Khushi asked her Son.

"Idea!! Ebu, came.." Khushi took Abeer in her arms and exited her room.

...

"Wait! Coming!!"

Khushi knocked at the door and waited for the person.

"Hey, Khushi! Need something?" NK asked as he opened the door, munching on his chips.

"Nanhe ji, can I borrow your laptop for hew hours?" Khushi asked to NK.

"Of course of course, why not? Wait I will bring.." saying NK disappeared in his room and came back with his laptop.

"Here, and no hurry, return when you are done" NK handed the laptop to Khushi.

"Thank you so much, Nanhe ji. You are so sweet. Thank you" Khushi thanked NK, smiling.

"Oh it's ok. Mention not." NK replied, blushing slightly.

...

Arnav strode inside his house after not so tiring day at office. With the New Year approaching, there's not much to do at office. He entered the living area to see his Nani and Mami sitting there, chatting away. Averting his eyes from them, he took long strides towards his room.

Nani smiled seeing her grandson's retreating back, knowing very well he is going to come running back. And here he comes

"Nani!"

"Nani!!"

"Nani!!!"

"Why are you shouting Chhote? I am not deaf. I can hear all fine." Nani said, not looking at Arnav.

"Nani, where is Khushi?" Arnav asked. His palms fisted at his side.

"Khushi? Arnav Bitwa not only Khushi, Abeer ijj too gayab then bhy only asking about Khushi bhy not Abeer?" Mami asked, blowing air at her freshly painted nails.

Arnav gritted his teeth. Why is that his family is always hell bent on testing his patience? As if he don't know that now-a-days Khushi and Abeer are glued to eachother. It's obvious that Abeer is with Khushi.And just where the hell is she?

Nani looked at her ready to burst grandson and having mercy on him, she decided to tell him where is his Khushi.

"She has gone to the nearby park, Chhote" Nani replied.

"Park? Alone?" Arnav asked his Nani.

"Alone Kahe Arnav bitwa? My ladla Nand Kishore is there bith her to give her company!" Mami announced.

Arnav looked at the both lady sitting in front of him with his seething eyes. And without uttering a word more he turned around to leave the house.

"Aree Arnav bitwa kaha? Phirst of all you come early and now bye bye? Bhere going?!" Mami shouted at her nephew.

But her Nephew, without replying to her, exited the door.

...

Arnav entered the park and wandered his eyes around to locate his wife. He took long stride, passing the running and giggling kids. Roaming his eyes to the right side of the park, where wooden benches were placed, his eyes caught the object of his restlessness. He started taking long stride towards them. As he was about to get near, he halted in his track, seeing the scene before him. Khushi and NK were seating side by side on a wooden bench with Abeer in Khushi's arms and Khushi laughing at something NK was saying to her. He took in the picture they were presenting. They look like a perfect happy family. And he? He felt like a man not needed there. NK was doing which he can't do. He was keeping them happy. He was making Khushi laugh, which he knows he can never do. They were looking just perfect. He saw few passerby admiring the perfect picture they were presenting. He felt a sudden weight settle on his heart. Unable to bear anymore, he turned around to get away from here as soon as possible.

"Arnav ji!!"

"Arnav ji!!!"

Arnav heard someone calling him and before turning to look he knew who that someone was. Who else calls him Arnav ji otherthan Khushi.

"Arnav ji!!" Khushi waved her hand at him, gesturing him to come towards them. She had seen him standing little away from them, thinking something. She thought that he will come to them but instead he turned around. Confused at his behavior, she shouted at him to stop him.

Arnav came and stood in front of Khushi.

"Arnav ji, sit!" Khushi patted the place beside her.

Arnav not looking at her, went and sat beside her.

"Hey Nanav! You early today. We thought that you will come late an so we thought of visiting the park.." NK greeted Arnav.

"Yes. There was not much to do at office. So I am early.." Arnav gave the reason.

"Arnav ji! This park is so nice. I didn't know about this. Naanhe ji asked me if I want to visit this park and as I was having nothing to do, I said yes.." Khushi said, smiling.

Arnav just hummed in reply.

Khushi looked at Arnav ji through her dubious eyes. He was looking little different today.

"Arnav ji, are you alright?" Khushi asked to Arnav ji and soon felt her Son kiss her on her cheek.

"I know you are ok baby. I was asking to Daddy" Khushi giggled at Abeer.

"Ebu, why don't you for a change kiss Daddy ?!" Khushi caught Abeer with her both hand and leaned him towards Arnav.

Arnav wasn't listening to anything. He was lost in his own thought when he felt something wet on his cheek.

"Ebu, I told you to kiss him, not to wet Arnav ji's cheek" Khushi tried to glare at Abeer.

Khushi caught hold of her Duppata's hem and started cleaning Arnav ji's cheek.

Arnav looked at Khushi, who was busy in cleaning his cheek. She was saying something to Abeer and also cleaning his cheek. She was too close to him. He looked in his eyes .Her eyes, the pair of mesmerizing eyes, which gives away her every emotions. Her few strands of hair caressing her forehead, which has the power to increase the speed of his heartbeat. Her button nose and milky cheek, which was now slightly red due the cold.

"Hey, Khushi!"

NK broke the spell Arnav was in.

"Khushi, the Sun is setting down. Perfect hour to click a picture. Come on I will click a pic" NK said, all excited and got up from the bench.

Khushi smiled at NK and sat straight,smiling.

"Khushi, this is my cell. I don't have my camera. So please can you sit close to Nanav" NK said to Khushi and again looked in his cell.

Khushi slided close to Arnav, having no problem with NK's suggestion.

Arnav looked at Khushi, her knees touching his.

"Ab theek hai Nanhe ji?" Khushi asked.

"No, Khushi. I feel something missing..." NK scratched his head, unable to satisfy the photographer in him.

"Nanhe ji, ek minute.."Khushi said to NK.

Khushi moved her head towards Arnav ji.

"Arnav ji, you take Abeer" and before Aranv can protest, Khushi thrust Abeer in Arnav's arm. She combed Abeer's hair with her fingers, satisfied with that, she coiled her hands around Arnav's arm and leaned towards him, smiling at NK, but frowned immediately and moved her head to look at Arnav ji.

"Arnav ji, aage dekhiye na. Why are you looking at me?" Khushi said and Arnav instantly moved his head to look in front.

"Perfect, Khushi!" NK cheered and clicked the perfect picture.

Khushi smiled more and was about to move back when her head collided with Arnav's chin and she heard a small hiss from him. Khushi lifted her concerned eyes to look at him.

"I am sorry, Arnav ji. Aap ko lagi.." Khushi started rubbing Arnav's chin with her fingers.

Arnav heard Khushi's apologetic tone. Had he ever heard a sweet voice like her? Her voice is like...like...like it has the power to crumble the hard wall he has built around his heart. But before he can think more on her voice, he felt hot air near his chin. He looked down to see Khushi blowing air on his chin. He fisted his palm to control the emotion that rushed through through his veins, seeing her lips so close to his.

"Perfect!!!"

NK shouted and Khushi looked at NK with a frown.

"Nanhe ji, what perfect?"

"Pefect picture, Khushi. Now this is the perfect picture. It looks like you were kissing Nanav" NK winked at Khushi.

"No I wasn't.." Khushi protested, sitting straight and blushing slightly.

"Oh I know, blushing beauty but it looks like that and now I am going to frame this pic and gift you both as your marriage gift" NK said while he came and sat beside Khushi.

Khushi blushed more and lowered her eyelashes not knowing what to say.

Arnav looked at the blushing Khushi. But before he can think anything on the blushing Khushi, his Son decided to jump in his arms.

"Khushi, lets go back. It's getting colder now. "Arnav said and got up from the bench.

Khushi nodded and got up from the bench.

...

Khushi was lying with Abeer in her arms, when she saw Arnav ji enter the room.

"Ebu, do you think that we should give our gift to Arnav ji. He isn't Ajeeb at nights, so I think this is the best time to give the gift, what do you think?" Khushi whispered to her Son and heard gurgling voices in reply.

"Ok! So I think I should give it to him.." Khushi pecked Abeer's lips and got up from the bed.

Khushi opened her side of wardrobe and took out a shopping bag.

"Arnav ji.." Khushi called and stood in front of him.

Arnav lifted his head to look at Khushi, who stood in front of him with a shopping bag in her hand.

"What? Do you want something?" Arnav asked, crooking his eyerow.

"No..I don't want...I have brought something for you.." Khushi said extending her hand towards him.

Arnav looked at the extended hand of Khushi. Getting up from from the bed, he took the bag.

Arnav looked inside the bag and took out a red rectangular box from it.

"What is it?" Arnav asked to Khushi.

"Open it.." Khushi said, smiling.

Arnav kept the bag on the bed and taking the box in his hand he opened the box to see a silver chain with a round pendant hanging in it. He took out the chain from the box.

"What is it?" Arnav looked at Khushi.

"Gift, Arnav ji. You gave me ring and so I brought a chain for you. Do you like it? That chain is very special you know?" Khushi looked at Arnav ji's confused face. So to clear his confusion, she took the chain from him and catching the round pendant with her fingers, she opened the pendant.

"See inside Arnav ji. That's me and Abeer..." Khushi smiled and saw the tiny pic of Abeer and her placed inside the pendant.

"Now, I and Abeer will be always there with you" Khushi said and extended her hand to Arnav ji.

Arnav looked at Khushi. Will be always there with you! He took in the smiling face of Khushi. She wants to be with him? Always? Is she happy with him? She will never leave him? Yes! She is his wife. Why will she leave him? The weight that had settle on his heart from evening felt evaporating by listening to her soothing words and looking at her smiling face.

"You know, Arnav ji. I also brought the chain for me and Ebu. My pendant has your and Ebu's picture and Ebu's pendant has yours and mine. Its nice na. whenever we are away, we will not miss eachother and we..."

"Away? Were are you going?.." Arnav snapped at Khushi before she can complete her sentence.

"Going? Nowhere! I was just telling that incase we are alone, we will not miss eachother..." Khushi replied smiling.

Never! He will not allow that to happen. They are going to live together. Forever.

"Arnav ji? Aap ko aacha nahi laga?" Khushi looked at the chain in her hand with a somber face.

"No...it's nice..." Arnav took the chain from Khushi's hand.

Khushi gave Arnav ji her million dollar smile.

"See, my chain.." Khushi showed her chain to Arnav ji. It wasn't like his. Her pendant was in a heart shape.

Smiling at her chain, Khushi went and slept on her side, taking Abeer close to her.

Arnav looked at the sleeping form of Khushi whilst he kept his head on the pillow. Everytime he look at her sleeping form, he is stunned by her sheer innocent beauty. He don't know what is there in her that he feels attracted towards her, what is in her that his heart rejoices whenever he is near her, what is in her that he want her to be always with him. He saw Abeer glued to Khushi and suddenly felt jealous of him. He had a sudden strong urge to be near her. His mind went to the first time he had met her.

He was waiting for his coffee in his cabin when he had heard the soft knock on his door and then had seen her enter in his cabin with her hesitant step with a coffee mug in her hand. And that was the first time he had shouted at her. Because she had put sugar in his coffee. That was the first time he had heard her soft and sugary voice, apologizing for her mistake. And that was the first time someone's tear other than his Di, Nani and Mami, had affected him.

Arnav again looked at her sleeping face. She had the power to evoke emotions in him which are deep buried in his heart. That time he had tried to shoo her away, keep her at distance. But now, seeing her daily, listening to her voice every minute, sleeping with her in the same room, he felt himself loosing to her.

Was there any harm in loosing himself to the innocent creature sleeping in front of him?

And with that last thought , Arnav closed his eyes. His heart at peace knowing that whether he losses or not, she will be always there with him.
