33 Arnav in RM
Part 33 Arnav in RM
The nurse looked at the Doctor and he nodded his head. Coming out of the ICU, he said,
"He got his memory back"
All of them delighted hearing that but Shyam. He wanted to stop Arnav from going to Tamilnadu for treatment. That was why he pushed him from the stairs. But he didn't think it would backfire on him. Arnav regained his memories. Already, Aman had doubts about him. If he told Arnav about the medicine and the doctor, it would take only one or two days for Arnav to find a whole issue. And adding to it, Khushi would be Arnav's biggest strength. His witty mind worked faster.
They were about to go inside the ICU, and Shyam stopped them.
"Wait Rani Sahiba, before going in front of Arnav, decide what you are going to tell Arnav about Khushi"
Anjali looked at him with confusion.
"We know about Arnav. He is a self-estimated guy. What will he think about himself knowing that he had been mental? Are you going to tell him that he tried to rape Lavanya? We got him married to Khushi because she saved Lavanya from him and spoilt her life?"
Anjali became horrified.
"What if he doesn't accept Khushi as his wife? What if he hates her just because she reminds him of his mental condition?"
Khushi clutched her shawl nervously hearing the word HATE. She could never stand Arnav's hate. She could not be alive if Arnav hated her. That would be the most terrible phase of her life. Tears rolled down her eyes.
"Do you remember, what kind of bride we searched for him? Doesn't he feel bad, if he gets to know the circumstance that made him marry a middle-class girl? He just got rid of his mental issue. Are you going to stress him again?"
"But Khushi is his wife... "
"Of course, yes, but this is not the right time to open it up to him. We have to observe him first. After making sure of his mental health, we will open it up to him"
"No, whatever it is, Chotte must know about Khushi and his wedding. I believe Chotte will accept Khushi" Anjali said sternly.
"What if he didn't accept? That's my question. Don't you know about Arnav? Is it easy to change his decision? We know how stubborn he is. Yet, do you want to risk Khushi's life?"
Anjali was about to say something,
"He is right..." said Khushi, cutting Anjali.
Anjali and Lavanya looked at her bewildered.
"Arnavji got hit on his head. He needs a stress-free phase now. He had faced many things in the past. I don't want to confuse him any more. I will be waiting for his good recovery... until then I will be out of RM"
"No... I won't let you go anywhere. I know Chotte and his ideas. I know how to open it up to him. You don't have to go, Khushi"
"Di, relax... when you are so confident about it, what harm if I wait for two or three days?"
Before Anjali said anything,
"That's a good idea. We will update you about Arnav's condition" Shyam said.
That's when a nurse came out of Arnav's room.
"Who are Anjali and Lavanya?" She asked.
"These two..." Shyam said.
"He calls you both" the nurse went in again.
Anjali and Lavanya looked at Khushi painfully. Khushi composed herself.
"You go and meet him, Di."
"But where will you go, Khushi? I know you won't go to your mother's place. Then where will you go?"
"I will go to Meena's place."
Anjali sighed.
"Khushi, we can give it a try..."
"No, Di... I can't risk..." she was about to go, but Anjali clutched her hand.
"Do you trust me?"
Khushi nodded and left the hospital spilling tears.
"Arnav is waiting for you, Rani Sahiba" Shyam said.
Anjali and Lavanya went in. Shyam spilled a winning smirk. He dialed HP. He attended the call.
"HP, Arnav is coming home. Remove all Khushi's things from Arnav's room. We have to send it to Khushi"
"Where is Khushi Bhabi?"
"She went to Meena's house"
"But why?"
"Stop asking me questions and do what I said. Arnav should not get doubt Khushi's presence when he comes to RM. Quick"
"Jee..."
HP went to Arnav's room and packed all Khushi's things. He thought something and left the *pillow cover* without changing it.
In the meanwhile
Arnav smiled at Anjali and Lavanya. They rushed to him and hugged him crying.
"Relax guys... I am alright..."
They felt delighted hearing him talking like before.
"Someone did hit me, right?"
They nodded yes sobbing. His sight fell on the calendar on the wall.
"What the... have I passed six months without my sense?"
They were dumbfounded. Shyam took lead.
"You were in a coma"
"Whaaaaat...? Coma...?" Arnav was shocked.
"Yes, sale sahib..."
"But... why I feel something weird...? Don't know why..." Arnav frowned.
"Like what?" Anjali asked curiously.
"I... don't know..."
"Rani Sahiba, don't stress him a lot. Let him be resting"
Arnav rubbed his cheek and frowned.
"Di, did I lose the ability of hair growth?"
They frowned at him.
"I had been in a coma for six months but there is no beard on my face... did you guys shave it off?" he laughed.
"Yeah... Rani Sahiba requested the doctor as she didn't feel good to see you with a beard"
Arnav lifted his brows wondering.
"Is your head aching?" Lavanya asked.
"A bit" He smiled gently.
"Sleep for a while," Anjali said.
"Let's go home, Di," he said wearily.
"We will surely go home, sale sahib. I will ask the doctor about your discharge. Till then, take rest" Shyam left.
Anjali and Lavanya also came out of the room.
"Di, I feel bad for Khushi..." Lavanya cried.
"Haan Lavi, but we can't stress Chotte as of now. Let's observe him for two or three days. We will tell him about Khushi soon"
"Please do it Di"
"Of course, I will. I'm sure Chotte will feel good if she is with him"
They saw Nani coming all delighted. Shyam already told her the news of Arnav's recovery.
"Did Chotte recognize you?"
"Yes, Nani. He is back... Our Chotte is back"
"Where is Khushi? I want to see her happy face" Nani said excitedly.
"Khushi is not here" Anjali said.
"What do you mean?"
Anjali narrated the present scenario. Nani gulped down hard. She turned around said nothing.
"Where are you going, Nani?"
"Temple..."
"Don't you want to meet Chotte?"
"Where will he go? However, he will come to RM only." She said rigidly and left.
Shyam saw her going out of the hospital.
He came to Anjali.
"Where is Nani going?"
"Temple..."
"Oh... To thank God for bringing her Chotte back?"
Anjali nodded yes.
Meena's place
Meena got stuck, seeing Khushi at her place.
"Khushi, how are you?"
"Fine Meena"
"How is your husband?"
"Fine"
"How did you come here leaving him alone?"
"Shall I stay here for a few days? She asked without answering her.
"Here? Is everything alright?" she asked nervously.
Khushi told her the situation that made Meena worried.
"Don't worry Khushi... if not your in-laws, I will tell your husband everything" Meena said.
"Shall I sleep for a while?"
Meena nodded yes. she knew Khushi could not sleep. She would like to be alone for a while. Meena took Khushi to her room.
After a while,
Meena heard a calling bell sound. She opened the door and saw Nani standing.
"Namaste Naniji" Meena became delighted.
She smiled at Nani and greeted her.
"Where is Khushi?"
"She is in my room..."
"Shall I meet her?"
"Of course, you can... please come"
Meena took her to her room.
Meena knocked on the door.
"Meena, please let me be alone" Khushi pleaded.
"Khushi bitiya..." Nani called.
Khushi sat on the bed jerking. Wiping her tears, she rushed to the door and opened it. Nani got inside the room. She smiled at Nani as if she was absolutely fine. Nani looked at her penetratingly. Khushi could no longer control herself. Nani spread her hands. In no time, Khushi hugged her and cried on her shoulder. Nani caressed her back and said,
"Let's go..."
Khushi looked at her shockingly, breaking the hug.
"No, Naniji... what if...?"
Nani stopped her.
"I agree we should not stress Chotte. At the same time, I'm not ready to stress you too. You are our Bahu... Chotte's wife. You should be with us in RM no matter what."
"But..."
"We are not going to tell him that you are his wife. But you are going to be with him in RM and that's final"
"Naniji..."
Clutching her hand, Nani started, walking out.
"I'm taking Khushi bitiya with me" Nani said to meena.
"Ok Naniji," Meena said happily.
Nani walked out with Khushi. Sitting inside the car, Nani ordered the driver to start the car.
"Naniji, I'm scared"
"Really?" she chuckled.
Khushi sighed.
"Khushi bitiya, I always admired your guts. You entered Chotte's room when he was wild. You controlled him when he was uncontrolled. But are you scared when Chotte is alright?"
Khushi didn't know how to say what she felt.
"Don't worry, Chotte won't hate a good girl like you."
Khushi cried closing her face with her palms.
"You are going to see how sweet our Chotte is. But you have to do something..."
"What Naniji?"
"Hide your mangal Sutra..."
"But...why, Naniji?"
"Do you trust me?"
Khushi nodded yes.
"Then do it"
Driver Mohan smirked listening to it. He got Nani's point. If Khushi was with mangal sutra, Arnav would think she was someone's wife. Then he would not even look at her. That was why Nani wanted her to hide the mangal sutra.
In the meanwhile,
Arnav was leaning his head on the pillow, closing his eyes. He opened his eyes jerking, remembering something,
"Arnavjiiiiii..." a dreadful shout of a girl.
Who called him like he was dying in front of her? Was that a dream or illusion? He could not conclude. The was disturbing him again and again.
Shyam finished the formalities and Arnav was taken to RM.
RM
Anjali circled the thali as usual and Arnav rolled his eyes as usual. Arnav walked in and roamed here and there not like to go to his room as RM looked new to him.
"It seems many things changed in RM..." Arnav said.
He got stuck as something grabbed his attention... the GRILL gated room. He frowned with a soft chuckle.
"Could six months bring this much change?" he headed towards the room and was awed to see its sensor lock. The room was completely empty.
All of them looked at each other nervously. Shyam's mind worked fast to answer Arnav.
"What room is this...?"
"We thought to form a small GYM here"
"Oh... Okkkayy... but, is the grill gate necessary for the gym?"
"Just thought to make it rich"
"Nice... open it"
Shyam was horrified. He hadn't changed Khushi's fingerprint with his yet.
"Whaaaat?" Arnav raised his brows. He turned behind, hearing,
"Chotte..."
He smiled at Nani who was standing with a GIRL. Shyam was shocked to see Khushi whereas Anjali and Lavanya felt relieved.
