23 The Biggest change
Part 23 The biggest Change
After talking to Swamiji, Khushi came to the living room.
"Where is Arnavji?" Anjali asked.
"He is sleeping" Khushi chuckled.
Anjali rushed to Khushi and hugged her.
"Thank you, Khushiji. Thank you so much for changing our Chotte" She tapped Khushi's back.
"It's my duty..."
"I wanted to hug you from the morning but I don't want your Arnavji to get angry with me. That's why I waited." Anjali laughed.
Khushi smiled a little.
"You know Khushiji, Chotte is a very possessive guy. He won't show it up openly but he is. I saw that today again, so openly"
So, Swamiji's statement was right. Arnav was naturally a possessive guy. His nature was getting out little by little.
Khushi had lunch with them. Lavanya also joined them. After lunch, Khushi chitchatted with them randomly. She wanted to get close to them. She believed that she needed their support to stand against Shyam. But, she hadn't opened up about the outing program. She thought it was too earlier to talk about it. she thought to talk about it after two days.
Though Khushi was talking with them she was looking at the way to Arnav's room again and again while chitchatting. After one and half an hour, Arnav came out of the room searching for Khushi. he didn't shout her name as the gate was opened. Khushi saw him coming and was about to stand,
"Let him come here, Khushiji" Anjali said.
Arnav came to Khushi and sat next to her. He leaned on her shoulder circling her waist with sleepy eyes. Khushi looked at them awkwardly whereas others controlled their smile.
"Arnavji, are you sleepy?"
"Mmm..." Arnav lay on her lap, stretching his legs on the couch.
"You know what Khushiji, Chotte never slept like this before your marriage" Anjali said.
"Oh... really?" Khushi said as if it was a new statement for her.
"I can't understand how Chotte changed in a very short period"
Khushi was silent.
"Anjali bitiya, however, our Chotte is getting cured. It's enough for us... let the reason be anything... Chotte is out of his horrible state. Is not it enough?" Nani said.
Anjali nodded yes.
"Shall I prepare tea?" Khushi asked.
"I agree you prepare tea well... but what about Khushi's husband? He will become angry if you go leaving him. Do you want us to leave our precious life for a single tea?" Anjali laughed.
"Nothing will happen" Khushi slowly put him down on the couch smilingly and went to the kitchen.
Lavanya followed her. She sat on the kitchen slab and pulled Khushi towards her.
"I owe to give you special thanks, Khushi. I'm planning to throw a great party after Bhai's recovery... especially for you"
Khushi smiled.
"I'm happy, you came out of your guilt," Khushi said.
"Not yet completely... even though Bhai is recovering the effort you are putting into it is unimaginable Khushi. Honestly speaking, if I had been in your place, I would not have done what you are doing" she said emotionally.
"You don't have to feel bad for me. I'm alright and enjoying every phase with Arnavji"
Lavanya smiled at her proudly. Khushi again concentrated on tea.
In the living room,
Arnav woke up from his sleep and sat on the couch jerking. He looked at her and there for Khushi.
"Chotte, do you want something?" Nani asked.
"I'm Arnavji..."
He walked to the kitchen. he stood at the entrance and ran his eyes. Khushi looked at him and smiled.
"Arnavji, did you wake up?"
Arnav strode in and clutched Lavanya's hand who was sitting on the kitchen slab, making them stunned. He pulled her from the slab and Lavanya jumped down.
"This is my place" he jumped on the slab and sat on it.
Khushi sighed and Lavanya stood not understanding the issue.
"Khushi bhabi made him sit there in the morning. That's why he is fighting for his right" HP smiled.
"Oh... you should have told me that before itself, Khushi. my leg would have broken down if I had not balanced" Lavanya said widening her eyes.
"Arnavji, she is your sister. You should not behave with her wildly."
Arnav looked at Lavanya who hid behind Khushi cautiously.
"Say sorry..." Khushi said.
"Khushi, this is my place," he said angrily.
"Khushi, leave it. don't make him angry..." Lavanya said fearfully.
"You go, Lavanya"
Lavanya left the place.
"See, how scared she is..." Khushi said while combing his hair with her fingers.
"Arnav baba looks beautiful" HP smiled.
"Arnavji is always beautiful... am I right?"
"Arnavji is always beautiful..." Arnav repeated.
Khushi chuckled.
"Khushi?" Arnav pointed at her.
"What?"
"Beautiful?"
"I should not say that." Khushi smiled.
"Arnavji?"
"Yeah, Arnavji can say"
"Khushi is beautiful" he smiled.
"Khushi Bhabi, Arnav baba became so smart" HP smiled.
After that, Arnav didn't allow Khushi to be with Raizada women. He didn't like to be with them in the living room but only in his room with Khushi.
Night
Khushi made Arnav sleep after feeding him dinner and medicine. Within a few minutes, Arnav woke up and searched for her. He came to the kitchen and didn't find Khushi there. HP saw him and stopped him.
"Are you searching for Khushi Bhabi?"
Arnav looked at him without answering.
"Come, I will take you to her room"
HP walked and Arnav followed him. Coming to her room, HP knocked on her door. Khushi opened the door and saw HP standing with Arnav. in no time, Arnav rushed to Khushi and hugged her. HP left the place with a smile.
"Didn't you sleep, Arnavji?" Khushi asked.
"Don't go, Khushi"
Khushi thought for a while,
"Ok... I'm not going anywhere. You sleep with me. Come"
She brought him to the bed and made him lay on it. Arnav sat again as he wanted to lay on her lap as usual. His sight fell on the mirror that reflected HIS image. He got down from the bed and rushed to it. when he came close to the mirror, the image also came close to him. When he waved his hand, the image also waved his hand.
"Khushi... see him" Arnav showed her his image.
Khushi laughed at him. Arnav became furious at the man who resided in Khushi's room. He wanted to hit him black and blue. He raised his hand to punch his face. Khushi was horrified seeing that. she rushed to him and clutched his hand. Arnav stopped, seeing Khushi in the mirror.
"Khushi... come here" he beckoned at Khushi's mirror image.
Khushi came close to him.
"This is you... Arnavji..." she said touching Arnav.
Arnav looked at her frowning.
"This is Arnavji and this is Khushi. See, she combed his hair with her fingers."
"Arnavji" he touched his image.
"Yes, he is Arnavji... is not he so beautiful"
"Khushi is beautiful," he said rigidly.
Khushi smiled.
"Let's go to sleep"
Arnav pressed his lips, seeing Khushi laying down. She tapped the pillow next to her, gesturing for him to sleep next to her. But, he laid on her chest, making her blood freeze. Of course, Arnav didn't do that with any feelings, but we can't say he didn't create any feelings in Khushi's mind.
Of course, bringing Arnav to his old room was the biggest change she made between her and Arnav because it needed guts. Arnav won't be compromised if he slept in her room once. he would like to sleep with her in the room always. But, the decision of bringing Arnav to his room became trouble for Khushi. Having no feelings in his mind, Arnav lay hugging Khushi, burying his face in her chest. That made Khushi suffocating. But she had to get used to it. No choice. Khushi composed herself.
The next morning
Anjali came to Arnav's room to see what he was doing. She was horrified, seeing his room gate open and the room was empty. Where was Arnav? She rushed to Khushi's room to convey it to Khushi. She saw Khushi coming out.
"Khushiji, Chotte is not in his room..."
"He is in this room... sleeping"
"Oh... did you bring him to your room?"
"No, he came searching for me"
"Did he sleep?"
"Well," Khushi smiled understanding the meaning.
Anjali touched her head lovingly.
Khushi went to the kitchen and prepared breakfast quickly. That was when she heard a calling bell sound. Lavanya rushed to the door and opened it. As she expected, it was Aman.
"Hi,"
Aman entered in.
"Hi, Aman... you here?" Anjali asked.
"I want to talk to you about something important, Anjali"
"Yeah, tell me"
"Who else knew about ASR's present condition?"
"Recently, Khushi's mother, brother, and her aunty got to know about him"
"Then?"
"Then no one. We are maintaining the secrecy."
"Then how did Reena Sharma get to know about it?"
"Reena Sharma?" Anjali frowned.
"She mocked me talking about ASR's present condition. I have a strong doubt about her"
"Doubt means?"
"She should have some connectivity with ASR's current state"
"Do you think she would go to that extend?"
"Why won't she? She was angry with ASR as he denied to marry her"
Anjali was shocked.
"Did she want to marry Chotte?"
"Yes... she directly proposed to him"
"Is it? When did it happen?" Anjali asked.
"Many times... ASR refused her"
Anjali became thoughtful. She understood why Arnav would have denied marrying her. She was an Ex-wife of one of the famous businessmen Raja Sharma. A gossip wandered in the business world that she divorced Raja Sharma only to marry Arnav but Anjali didn't know about it.
"Can't we keep an eye on her?" Anjali asked.
"Till now, I didn't do that but I will surely do that from here on"
Anjali nodded yes. Khushi was listening to their talks, sitting behind a pillar. She was shocked as she thought only Shyam is related to this issue. But who was Reena Sharma? She came out of the pillar, with a teacup and handed it to Aman.
"Hi, Khushi, how are you?"
"Doing good"
"She is really DOING good," Anjali said.
"Really?"
"Yeah, you will faint if you get to know about your ASR's present state"
"Really?"
"Have breakfast and go" Khushi said.
"With pleasure"
Khushi went back to the kitchen thinking about Reena Sharma.
Aman had the tea.
"Where is ASR?"
"Excuse me... he is not ASR but Arnavji" Anjali laughed.
Aman kept the empty cup on the tea table smilingly.
"He, himself will say I'm Arnavji" Anjali laughed.
"Oh..."
"Yeah... Khushi calls him like that. So, he is ONLY Arnavji. he is not ready to accept anything else"
"It seems, Khushi became his world"
"Absolutely... she is his world"
"I can't believe ASR can be changed this way"
"Yeah... only Khushi can do this"
"ASR is very lucky..."
"Undoubtedly... the way he got Khushi in his life may be worse but she is destined for him... that's why these all would have happened," Anjali said.
Aman felt heart filled.
In the kitchen
Khushi saw HP going out. Taking Arnav's OLD medicine hurriedly, as usual, she put it in the sink before HP came back. But, she became horrified, sensing someone standing behind her.
