25 Wedding fixed
Part 25 Wedding fixed
Khushi was in deep thought about Dhruv. Arnav dared to accept that he was the one who beat him up. She didn't know how he turned out like this. Didn't he say her absence? changed him? Was she the reason for his changed behaviour? She recalled his anger that she never witnessed. He was so smooth towards her, even though he was reluctant to accept her as his friend, he never showed his anger to her. She didn't think his anger could be a lie. If his anger was true, why did he not tell her anything about her father and force her to marry him? What stopped him from telling her the truth?
...........
Sudhakar was in the office, checking a file. He got a call from his mother. He attended it.
"Amma..."
"Sudhakar, make yourself calm and listen to me."
"What amma, anything serious?"
"Yes, it's serious. Somebody hit Dhruv."
"Hit? Who? Why?"
"Dhruv says, he doenst know anything. He got trapped in a lonely bungalow when somebody chased him."
"Where is he now?"
"Anjana and Anjali took him to the hospital. I'm also going to go. Before that, I want to tell you about it. So, I stayed back."
"Did Anjana and Anjali go to the lonely bungalow?"
"No, Dhruv's friends brought him to RM."
"To RM? But why? Instead of taking him to the hospital, why did they bring him to RM?"
"It's because your son was scared."
"Whaaat? Dhruv and scared?"
"His friends said so... most probably, he didn't want to go to the hospital and asked Anjali to call the doctor home."
"Is the wound small?"
"His leg and hand are broken. You can't identify him if you meet him somewhere else. You won't believe he is your son. He was that damaged..."
"Then, why the hell doesn't he want to go to the hospital?"
"I don't know how to tell you, Sudhakar,"
"Amma, please, tell me... no matter what..."
"He doesn't like Arnav to get married to Khushi. He will ruin the wedding if he stays at home. That's why he doesn't want to be admitted to the hospital."
Sudhakar was silent.
"And, one more thing. I know it will be hard for you to believe the accusation. If you want to get confirmed, ask your son to file a police complaint against those who beat him. If he agrees to it, then I will agree I'm wrong in judging him." She disconnected the call and looked at Arnav, who was smirking.
"Why does Dhruv not want to file a complaint?"
"His thievishness will get out if he does that. That's why he doesn't want it to happen." Arnav said.
"We have let Sudhakar know his intention. Let's see what he will do."
"Thank you for your help, Dadi."
"Do you think Dhruv will be controlled?"
"Not exactly... I just want Chacha to know Dhruv's intention. Then only he will watch his action even if he comes to RM."
"Mmm... I'm going to the hospital."
"Ok, I have a conference at the office. I will come later."
"Ok..." Dadi left RM.
In the hospital,
Dhruv was examined in the hospital. His leg and hand were brutally broken. So, he was under observation. The doctor refused to send him home when Dhruv demanded.
"I don't want to be in the hospital. Send me home. I don't like to be here..." he shouted.
"Dhruv, don't behave like a kid. This is a hospital, not your house."
"If you don't send me home, I will shout like this only. You can't control me," he threatened.
Sudhakar, who came there, raised his hand to slap him. Dhruv was taken aback, seeing that. he was already in killer pain. In addition, his father intended to slap him.
"Not one more word... I will kill you. Besides, getting beaten up by somebody, are you raising your voice in the hospital? Who beat you up? Why?"
"I don't know..."
"You should have done something. don't I know you? If you had minded your business, why would somebody have beaten you up? Gathering your useless friends, you should have tortured someone, you, spoilt brat...!"
"Please don't think so..." Anjana tried to say something.
"It's everything because of you. You ruined him. If you had beaten him up when he did wrong, you could have avoided him getting beaten up by others..."
"Why are you getting angry unnecessarily?"
"Why does he want to come home? Did you ask him?"
"He doesn't like to be here..."
"It's not true... he wants to create problems in Arnav and Khushi's wedding... in their relationship... that's why he wants to be at home..."
Dhruv looked down, gulping.
"You should not come home until their wedding happens... It's final..." Sudhakar said strictly, making Dhruv stun.
Khushi was shocked to hear Sudhakar's shout at Dhruv. What did that mean? It seemed that Sudhakar was disappointed with Dhruv in some things. Why so? What would Dhruv have done? Was Sudhakar dissatisfied with Dhruv?
"I called the police. You are going to file a complaint against those who hit you..." Sudhakar said.
"But, I don't know who they are..." Dhruv said in a low tone.
"You don't have to bother about it. The police will take care of it."
"Leave it, Dad..."
"Why? Why should we leave it? Look at your face in the mirror. If I had seen you somewhere else, I wouldn't have recognised you. how could I leave them? Whoever it is... they should answer..."
"Dad, please, don't create a scene..."
"Me? Is it me who creates a scene? It's you who created the biggest scene... I'm going to file a complaint. That's final..." Sudhakar said this and looked at Dadi, becoming embarrassed.
His mother's word became true. But how did she guess Dhruv rightly?
Khushi was more confused. Sudhakar said what exactly Arnav said.
Anjana and Anjali stayed in the hospital with Dhruv.
Arnav came home and saw Sudhakar in the living room with Dadi, having coffee. Sudhakar smiled at him and said,
"We are discussing your wedding..."
Arnav came and sat with them.
"I don't want it to happen grandly. Simple wedding is enough..."
"How could you say so?"
"It's because uncle Shashi is missing. Khushi is here, searching for him. We are getting married in these conditions. Then, how could we think of a grand wedding?"
"You may be right, but what if she thinks differently? She will miss her father, however. It doesn't mean we should make it simple."
"She won't think differently... I know her." Arnav said without thinking.
"What do you want us to do?"
"You don't have to do anything. I prefer a court marriage. We will arrange for a grand wedding after Uncle Shashi's arrival."
"There are a few formalities for the court marriage."
"I have already moved the papers through my lawyer, Mr Roy."
Sudhakar was dumbfounded, and Subhadra was surprised. More than Sudhakar and Subhadra, Khushi was shocked. She was listening to them, without their knowledge. She saw Arnav's car entering RM. She rushed downstairs to ask him something. She slowed down, seeing him sitting with Sudhakar and Dadi. She wanted to leave the place as she didn't think Arnav would come to his room soon. But, as she didn't expect, they started the wedding talks. So, she waited there itself.
"I fixed our wedding on Friday. I hope you guys have no problem."
Sudhakar and Dadi were silent. They didn't know what to say.
"I have no one other than you TWO. That's why I want to tell you about it. I hope you guys won't disappoint me..."
"We want you to be happy, Arnav. We are fine with your decision. However, you will marry Khushi. You decided to do it on Friday. It doesn't make a difference..." Dadi said.
"Thank you, Dadi..." Arnav walked to his room.
Khushi followed him. Arnav sensed it. He smiled and entered the room, stopping.
"I didn't expect you to follow me whenever I come home." He said, removing his coat.
She turned him towards her. Arnav looked at her smilingly.
"How could you fix our wedding without consent?"
"You agreed to marry me... remember?"
"So what? Won't you ask for my acceptance?"
"Ok, Khushi, shall I fix our wedding on Friday?" he asked, slightly bowing down.
She rolled her eyes.
"Don't you dare say NO," he warned.
"Don't behave like a dictator..."
"I have no choice... get ready for our marriage. It's on Friday... we have only four days..." Taking a towel, he went to the washroom, leaving perplexed Khushi.
