Part 31 Date Fixed
"Enemy of my enemy is my friend. That's you." The man said.
Rajesh's face brightened. He saw a mild smile on Rohini's face. She gestured for him to get in the car. Rajesh gladly got in.
"May we know your name?" Rajesh asked.
"Dhruv..." he said.
"How did you and Arnav become enemies? We never saw you in Delhi..."
"Don't you hear about DR Industries?"
"Yeah, we did... It's an import and export company..."
"That's mine..."
"Oh... what did Arnav do that he became your enemy?"
"I can't list out what I lost because of Arnav and his mother..." Dhruv gripped the steering wheel tightly.
Rajesh and Rohini looked at each other.
"Where are you going now?" he asked, composing himself.
"We are going to my mother's place."
"You had been a prince of Amrita Malik's empire so far. Could you live in a small place?"
"What can we do, sir? We don't have a choice..." Rajesh said sadly.
"I can't understand one thing. How did you people stay so patient waiting for Amrita Malik to transfer her property to your name? Why didn't you try to get it from her in some way?"
"We tried, but she was so stubborn not to do that."
"You could have silently finished her chapter... her husband and son... I mean, for the world, he was Amrita's son. So, you could have simply done that without anyone getting doubts..."
"Avinash Malik never gave us a chance; he is a coward," Rohini said irritably.
"Then how did he give you a chance to throw his own son into the dustbin?"
"At that time also, he had no courage. It was I who did that." Rohini said.
"Oh... ok, what are you guys going to do now? Are you going to let them live happily?"
"No way..." Rajesh shouted in anger.
"I will not let it happen. They should not live happily. They should die..."
"Die?"
"Yes, they should die... I can't see them living happily. They snatched everything from me... I want everything back."
"But you can't get anything back because even though they die, the property will go to her sister Ratna..."
"I will kill her whole family too..." he said furiously.
"Then your life will also come to an end..."
Rajesh looked at him, perplexed.
"Do you think it's that easy to finish the whole clan? If you do that, you can't escape because the doubt would fall on you. Because everyone got to know your real identity. You will be trapped."
"Then, what do I do? Should I let them be happy?"
"When did I say so? In fact, even I could not let them be at peace. I will do something soon..."
"I want to stop their wedding. It should not happen..."
"Ok... we will think about it..."
In the meantime,
"We are gladly announcing that Arnav and Khushi's wedding will be held on the 23rd."
Khushi looked at Arnav in surprise.
"So soon?" She asked.
"Why? Don't you want to come to me?"
"I think you didn't understand my question..."
"Ok, don't you want to come to me soon? Is it right?"
"I asked, SO SOON with excitement..."
"I see..." he smiled.
Arnav smiled at Khushi, who looked at him as he stood behind her.
"By the way, is it all your plan?" she asked.
He shrugged his shoulders, flipping his lips.
"Don't act innocent..."
"Innocent and me?" he chuckled.
"You are not innocent but play the role... what an actor you are! How smartly you acted as if you knew nothing!" She pouted.
"It's not my plan but OUR plan. All of us are behind this... even your parents..."
"I wondered how my father agreed to get me married to that rogue, but I didn't expect you guys would have trapped him also."
"We didn't trap him. We just told him the truth about who I am... he readily agreed."
"I was so upset with my parents..."
"We knew..."
"It's fine if you guys planned to trap them. But why me? Why did you guys hide the truth from me? I would have been peaceful if you had told me..."
"I wanted to see what you would do. I expected you to propose to me. It happened... in a most unexpected way..." he smirked.
Khushi stretched her left lip a little.
"What kind of expression is this?" he smiled.
"You are so MEAN..." she pouted.
"It's because YOU MEAN A LOT TO ME."
Khushi smiled at him pleasantly and looked at people who were looking at them teasingly. Khushi made a face and looked down, biting her lip. Everyone laughed at her expression.
"I think they have forgotten that they are the centre of attraction..." Shyam teased.
"I think they have forgotten we are here..." Anjali smiled.
"That's love... it makes us forget everything... am I right, my dear son?" Arvind laughed.
Arnav smiled at Khushi.
"A lot happened in their lives. It's obvious if they would like to discuss them." Amrita said.
"Ammu is right. Do one thing... take Khushi somewhere and discuss all of them, relaxing. What say?" Ratna asked.
Arnav looked at Khushi and asked,
"What about a long drive?"
She looked at her parents, who nodded with a smile.
"Thank you, Dad..." She hugged him.
"I hope you are happy now", Shashi asked.
"You too didn't tell me the truth..."
"But we did what you liked..."
"Thank you so much, Dad."
Shashi looked at Amrita and said,
"You asked me if my daughter really likes your son. See, how many times she is thanking me..." Shashi smiled.
Khushi blushed, biting her lip.
"Thank God, my daughter-in-law knows to blush..." Ratna countered.
That made Khushi blush more.
"Shall we?" Arnav asked Shashi, who nodded yes.
Khushi walked with him and their families admired them with a smile.
Arnav came to his car and opened the door for Khushi. Instead of getting inside the car, she hugged him, making him smile.
"You have no idea how tense I was. I didn't expect you would be Amrita Malik's son. What a surprise!" she looked at him, breaking the hug.
"How did you tolerate that jerk Rajesh being in your place?"
"Who tolerated him? I have been striking him without missing a single chance..."
"But you missed your mom, right?"
"Why would I miss her if we met often abroad?"
"Abroad?"
"Yeah, we went abroad not officially but personally too. As we are business people, no one doubted us."
"I always thought why you would respect Amrita Malik a lot when you didn't like her son..."
"She herself doesn't like him..." Arnav chuckled.
"No one would like him," Khushi said, making a face.
"Are you coming with me for a long drive? Or, are you going to talk to me here itself?"
"I'm ready to go anywhere with you. I don't mind if you want to be here. It doesn't make a difference because I just want you to be with me."
"What about privacy?"
"Our privacy will remain ours no matter where we are!"
"It is ok if I kiss you in public?"
She looked at him, raising her brows.
"Why are you looking at me like this? From the time you kissed me, I'm waiting for it..."
"Oh, this is why you brought me for a long drive?"
"Not only for that... but for that also..." he smirked.
She sat in the car. Closing the door, Arnav took the driver's seat. In no time, Khushi pulled him and sealed his lips. Though Arnav didn't expect it, he managed himself and drowned into something he waited for.
To be continued...
