30 Arnav's Idea
Part 30 Arnav's Idea
Khushi was horrified. She knew the little girl would tell her mother about Arnav and her marriage. Her mother was the biggest blabbermouth. She would gather the whole area's people at the Gupta house for sure. She didn't know how Arnav would react to it.
"Where is she running?" Arnav asked.
Before Khushi replied, Veena did.
"She will bring not only her mother but also the whole area people. It's better if you leave before they come. They will cause big trouble..." She said.
Arnav looked at Khushi, who was irritated. Even though Veena was right, she didn't like it when she asked Arnav to leave. Who was she to say that? Khushi knew she was jealous and she didn't want people to know about Arnav.
"No, problem... So what if they come? However, they will have to meet Arnavji after our wedding. They are nice people. Arnavji will like them."
"Khushi, do you talk with your sense? How could a rich man like a low-class person?"
Khushi was about to answer, but she stopped, hearing Arnav's answer.
"I don't consider people's status. It's enough if they are nice... Recently, I got some nice people in my life. Khushi and her parents are examples..." He smiled.
Khushi raised her suit collar with pride. Veena was annoyed. She didn't like that Arnav would hold Khushi's back in small issues too. She couldn't tolerate Khushi getting such a life and it was obvious.
As they expected, the little girl came with her mother.
Her eyes were Arnav. Khushi hurriedly went to Arnav and stood in front of him, in a manner of restricting people from reaching him.
"Please, come, Vimla massi..." Khushi greeted her.
Followed by Vimla, a few area people came. Shashi and Garima were looking worriedly at Arnav's expression. To their surprise, he looked cool.
"Pinky said, your going to be husband is here..." Vimla asked, glancing at Arnav.
"Yes, Vimla, we thought to invite you people from tomorrow."
"Invite?"
"Yes, their wedding is fixed next week..."
"Whaaaat?" Came not only from Vimla but also from Vidya and Veena.
"Yes... Damadji wants this wedding to happen soon."
"It seems your Damad wears a coat and suit too..."
"He always wears a coat and suit. He is running a big company called AR..." Garima said proudly.
They heard a few sighs. People murmured something with one another. Of course, the tasks were full of jealousy. Guptas heard some of them. They couldn't help. Khushi started stating Arnav's details. She thought, instead of letting them build up stories on their own, it was better to bring the true state in front of them.
If he were the old Arnav, he would feel irritated or embarrassed for being showcased, but now, being a changed man, he observed everything keenly. That was the first time, he learned the mindset about people of different statuses. Their questions about him were funny.
"If he wears a coat and a suit, how will you wash them, Khushi? Is not his clothes seem like a rug?"
"Eat how much you want, Khushi. You may not get our type of food in your in laws. I heard rich people will eat something like, pijja, burbur..." Said Vimla.
Arnav frowned as he didn't understand what all of them were saying. Children laughed hearing that.
"What? Why are you laughing?"
"Not Pijja, but, pizza..."
"And, not burbur but Burger..."
Children again laughed. Arnav raised his brows and controlled his smile.
"Haan, haan... Who knows such foreign food names? I don't know how people like such food, like dried rotti..."
Arnav's expression was worth watching and Khushi chuckled seeing that.
"Vimla maasi, that food has a unique taste. You don't know that. People who could adopt a rich life would like it." Veena said.
People wondered because Veena indirectly supported Khushi, they supposed but Veena's next stance proved them wrong.
"I too love that food, you know. It gives me satisfaction. It's all about our mind. If we train our mind, we can adopt anything and we can love anything, but we should analyse if our choice is right because sometimes, our choice seems the best but it would not be... We will understand that only after our life is ruined..."
Everyone looked at her with confusion. They didn't know why Veena talked irrelevantly, but Guptas and Arnav understood that she spoke about Arnav's choice... Khushi...!
Khushi gritted her teeth. How cunning this Veena was! How dare she talk like that? She wanted to lash her over. In addition, Arnav's stance fuelled her anger.
"You are right. Our choice is what makes our life. If we choose anything wrongly, it will affect our life long."
Veena smirked at Khushi teasingly. But, her expression changed when Arnav continued.
"But, some people don't have a chance to choose..."
Veena frowned.
"See, Khushi didn't have a chance to choose who should be around her. She has to accept people who don't like her growth and betterment... Poor she!"
Khushi widened her eyes with a smile and looked at Veena, who was roasting badly.
"Amma, did you keep anything on the stove?" Khushi asked.
"No... I didn't even turn the stove on... Because, Damad asked me not to cook because he ordered dinner for us..." Garima said, trying not to flaunt.
"Is it? " Khushi asked.
Arnav smiled.
"Why did you ask me that if anything is on the stove?" Garima asked.
"Something is burning... It seems..." Khushi said looking at Veena, who bit her jaw.
Garima could not help but chuckle, understanding what she meant. Arnav also understood that and stood up. Khushi looked at him.
"Uncle, ask everyone to have dinner here..." He said.
People looked at Shashi curiously, who was stuck.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, I can bring food for all. I messaged the restaurant manager and he sent it already."
"But, how did you do that so quickly, Arnavji?"
"When Pinky brought her mother..." He smiled.
Shashi nodded smiling and said,
"Everyone, have dinner with us..."
"Hope you didn't order alien food..." Someone asked.
Arnav nodded, 'NO' smiling.
"Our Damadji knows what people like," Garima said.
At the same time, the ordered food arrived. People awe struck to see the variety of food served to them. Romali rotti, butter paneer, chola batura, channa masala, Butter Naan, Allo mutter, vada pav, Halwa, ras malai, and gulab jamun.
People could not eat all of them. Their stomach filled with a few dishes.
"Wow... How many dishes...! If he feeds us with so many dishes just for his mother-in-law's birthday, what about his wedding?" People discussed.
"It seems he is a nice man." Someone said.
"Yes, he respects people..."
"What's necessary for him to feed all of us? Yet he does that... So sweet of him..." People flattered Arnav openly
"Khushi is so lucky to have such a groom."
Arnav looked unaffected so far but he could be without smiling hearing the last sentence. He looked at Khushi who was smiling at him. Arnav was satisfied because he wanted to shut Veena's mouth forever. He knew she would fill people's ears and try to upset Khushi. He didn't want it to happen and he was successful. What else could satisfy people more than a tasty food? So he decided to provide it. People would never give ear to anyone from here on for sure.
To be continued...
