25 Threatening phone call
Part25
Khushi was getting ready to college after completing prayer as that day, her exams starting. She was surprised when Laxmi came with cordless phone. It must be payal. Is anything serious? She took the receiver from Laxmi.
Khushi: Payal...
Payal: Hi baby...
Khushi relaxed hearing her casual tone.
Khushi: Are you ready?
Payal: Yah... You?
Khushi: Yup. Tell me what made you call me.
Payal: Did you read the cookery book?
Khushi: How could I, when we have exams? I will read it after our exams.
Payal: Then do one thing.
Khushi: yah...
Payal: Bring the book. My mom wants to read it. I will return it after our exams.
Khushi: Sure. I will bring it.
Payal: Thank you.
Khushi: See you soon.
They disconnected the call. Khushi came to the living room and took the book from the self. She kept it in her bag and left to college.
In College
Khushi was getting down from the car while searching for Arnav who was already looking at her smilingly.
She walked inside taking small steps until her car left the premises. She hurried her action and approached Arnav who was with Aman and Akash.
Aman: Hi Khushi.
Khushi: Hi... Hi Akash...
Akash: Hi...
Khushi: Hi Arnav...
Arnav: Seems like, you drank all your portions in a gulp?
Aman and Akash chuckled at his comment.
Khushi: Of course, after all this is our final year.
Arnav: All the best.
Khushi: Thank you. (looking at her watch) I'm leaving...
She supposed to go to her class...
Arnav: Won't you wish me?
Khushi nodded no.
Arnav: Why?
Khushi was silent.
Arnav: Khushi I ask you something.
Khushi: I prayed for you in the morning.
Arnav: I'm not talking about it. Just wish me.
Khushi was silent.
Arnav: Khushi....
Khushi (hesitating): I don't wish anyone because it's not good luck for them I suppose.
Arnav: I will fail only if the question paper would have taken from Science department. Don't worry, I studied well. Even though if I fail, I won't care. So wish me.
Khushi: God bless you.
Arnav rolled his eyes. Khushi was about to take a step, she stopped hearing,
Arnav: I'm going home.
She looked at him astonishing.
Khushi: Why?
Arnav: You didn't wish me so that, I'm upset. So I lost my ability to sit in the exam. So I'm going.
Khushi: what the...
She got horrified, seeing him really leaving...
Khushi: Arnav... stop...
Arnav: Then make my mood.
Khushi: Try to understand Arnav...
Arnav: Give me a chance to prove you are my LUCK.
Khushi closed her eyes sighing.
Arnav: Won't you trust me?
Khushi(in feeble voice): I do.
Arnav: It's not seem so.
Khushi: All the best.
Arnav(with lop sided simle): Thank you SEXY. (he winked)
Khushi's eyes widened and she looked at Aman and Akash. They flipped the book which were in their hands as if they didn't hear anything. Khushi pinched Arnav's knuckle and he smiled at her.
Arnav: You and your sentiments....
Khushi(pouting): Bloody sentiments... right?
Arnav nodded yes.
Khushi: I'm going.
Arnav: Do your exam well without thinking about me.
Khushi(chuckled): It's very tough to do so. Bye...
She left to her class smilingly. She saw Payal revising standing out of the exam hall sincerely. Khushi snatched the book from her.
Payal: Khushi... give my book...
Khushi: How can you read in the last minute which you didn't study in last one year?
Payal: I have one doubt. That's what I'm looking for.
Khushi gave her the book sighing. Payal closed the book after getting cleared the doubt.
Payal: Did you bring the cookery book?
Khushi (taking it from her bag): Yap. Take it.
Payal: I will give you back after our exams.
Khushi: No problem.
At the same time, bell rang. Payal kept the book in her bag and put it in the self in where students were keeping their belongings. They hurried inside the exam hall.
Evening in GH
Rishi stunned seeing the messed up living room when he returned from school. Books which were being kept in the book-self were being shattered everywhere in the living room. Garima was searing something in those books like a mad. Khushi was crying sitting in the corner of the room curling her knees. She must be beaten by Garima.
Rishi rushed to Khushi and sat kneeling down in front of her.
Rishi: Di, what's all this?
She nodded her head left and right sobbing while clutching her salwar. He stood at the place and turned towards Garima.
Rishi: Mom, what are you searing for?
Garima: I kept an important papers here yesterday. It's missing.
Rishi: Di, did you see that?
Khushi nodded no.
Rishi: What are those papers Mom?
Garima got stuck and stammered.
Garima: It's... an... important papers....
Rishi: Those are Dad's?
Garima(horrified): No... no... it's not his.
Rishi sensed something is surely wrong with her. Because Garima always stays firm no matter what. He decided to use the situation to save his sister. He removed his mobile.
Rishi: Let me ask Dad. He may take it from here...
Garima took two long steps and snatched the phone panicking. Rishi smiled inwardly as he confirmed that Garima is hiding something from Shashi.
Garima: He would not have taken that.
Rishi: How are you so sure of it mom? Di doesn't know about it and I also don't know. Then he is the only one left from us...
Garima(shouting): Rishiiii listen... if you both don't know about it then leave it. You don't have to ask him.
Rishi: But why are you getting tensed? I just thought to help you.
Garima(calming herself): I know, but Dad is in foreign client meet. We have to understand that we shouldn't disturb them.
Rishi (nodding his head): You should also understand one thing mom.
Garima: What?
Rishi: That, you shouldn't beat Di without knowing the truth because she is also having feeling and she also feels pain.
Garima shocked and looked at Khushi who was sobbing. Rishi took his phone from Garima and strode towards Khushi. He held her hand and took her to her room throwing a sharp glare on Garima. Rishi always supports Khushi, helps her but this is the first time, he did hit Garima directly.
In Khushi's Room
Rishi: is it paining Di?
Khushi nodded no wiping her tears. He felt bad for his Di. He thought to cheer her up.
Rishi: Di, I have a doubt.
Khushi (in gauzy tone): What?
Rishi: Will Jeejaji talk to me like he speaks with you?
Khushi (elatedly): Sure, he is so sweet.
Rishi: Really? (Khushi nodded yes) Tell me his number.
Khushi (gulping): Why?
Rishi: Let me talk to him.
Khushi(hurriedly): Noooo
Rishi: Why? This is not done Di. How sweetly he introduced you to his parents...? Won't you do that? Won't he like to talk with his Sale Sahib?
Khushi nodded yes biting her lips. Rishi felt that she forgot her grief and he was happy about it.
Rishi: Di, let's tease him.
Khushi: How?
Rishi: I'm going to threaten him like he did something wrong. (Khushi dropped her jaw) My voice also turned rough as I'm a teenager now. He will think someone is threatening him. Let's see, what he does.
He said excitedly.
Khushi: No Rishi... please don't do that...
Rishi: Just for fun Di... Tell me his number.
Khushi told Arnav's number. Rishi dialled and Arnav picked it up in second ring. Rishi turned the speaker on.
Arnav: Who is speaking?
Rishi: It's not important. I know who you are.
Arnav (sternly): So?
Rishi: Do you think, I don't know what you are doing?
Arnav was silent.
Rishi: Don't think I will leave you that easily...
Khushi was controlling her smile so did Rishi.
Arnav: Tell me the matter.
Rishi: I got to know everything that what you are doing with Guptas.
"Silence..."
Rishi: What if you does everything silently, there would be someone who can make you flat. Remember that.
He said winking at Khushi and she blushed.
"silence..."
Rishi: One day, you will get caught. That day, I will smile seeing your state. Not only me... the whole Guptas will laugh at your flushed face.
"Silence"
Rishi: Don't fly high that you are an intelligent. Guptas are more powerful than you. They can corner you from any side any time. Mind it...
Arnav could no more hold himself after that.
Arnav: Let them corner me. I'm also waiting for that day...
The next stance uttered by Arnav made the siblings shock to the core...

He can't tolerate
Finally, Garima got something in her mind. She removed a diamond ring form closet. She looked at that gulping. This is the only source left for her to save her "Share Market" business. She thought to sell it. She believed that she can buy it back if she once started earning from Share Market. She went to the jewellery shop to sell the ring.
Someone tapped her shoulder from behind. Her breath caught hold in her lungs. She turned around and saw Rohit smiling at her. She sighed in relief.
