20 Sameer Khan
Note: Sorry for the delay Dearies...
Part20
Arnav was sitting on the recliner thinking about Khushi. It's good he came before she comes from the college and checked the CCTV footage. Arnav saw Khushi entering their room. Arnav shut his laptop down. He decided not to ask her anything regarding "putting sugar in his car petrol tank" and make her embarrass.
Khushi surprised seeing Arnav at home so earlier, as she expected him late today. She thought he will come home in the night. LA and Simi's talk about TRUE LOVE tickled her sense. An unknown feeling churned her stomach.
Khushi: Arnavji you came earlier? Didn't I say I can mange my studies?
Arnav: Of course you said, at the same time didn't you ask me to take care of my health? If I work around the clock then how could I take care of my health? I was glad that I can be relaxed in the pretext of teaching you. But you denied. It's ok. You just carry on.
Arnavji is right. Anjalaji wants him to take care of his health. How it is possible if he works 24*7? It will be better if he comes home earlier. Then there is nothing to be worried about him.
Arnav: But I will be coming earlier like always no matter if you take my help or not.
Khushi: I'm sorry Arnavji. I didn't think in your way and I think I can never think like you.
Arnav: Hey... cool. I just...
Khushi(cutting him): I have a doubt in my new lesson. Will you help me?
Arnav(with his lop sided smile): It's my pleasure. Go and get fresh first.
Khushi rushed to the washroom nodding happily. Arnav again got confused seeing her happy. So she has no problem with his teaching. Then why did she deny him the previous day? He saw Khushi coming from the washroom. Arnav could see her excitement. She brought her book all smiling. As usual they started their work.
After a while they heard knock. Arnav knew who it would be... Anjali. And he was right.
Anjali: Chotte, you came soon today also?
For the first time, Arnav felt uncomfortable by Anjali's words as he had just convinced Khushi for the same problem. But Khushi was not feeling embarrassed as Arnav cleared her doubt.
Arnav: Haan Di.
Anjali: Shyamji told me that you left a very important deal to come home that day?
Arnav: But I had completed it by going earlier the next day.
Anjali: Yah he told me that. Take care chotte.
Arnav nodded yes.
Khushi: Don't worry Anjaliji. Arnavji is coming home to take care of his health too. Isn't it necessary for him?
Anajali nodded yes smilingly and left the room.
Arnav noticed white rose which was adding extra beauty to Khushi.
Arnav: This rose suits you.
Khushi's reply stunned him.
Khushi: Sameer gave me.
Arnav(frowning): Sameer? Who's he?
Khushi: My class mate and also (she was supposed to say brother but stopped thinking LA's condition) My friend.
Arnav: Ohhh.
Khushi: He asked me to convey his THANKS to you.
Arnav: Thanks to me? Why?
He asked couldn't understand anything.
Khushi: I taught him what you taught me.
Arnav(amazed): you(stressed) taught him? (Khushi nodded yes and Arnav understood how they could become friends) Great. See, you can help someone if I teach you. (She nodded yes pouting.)
Arnav smiled at her but his inner mind was rolling on the thought of "Sameer khan". Who's that guy? Is he really a trustworthy? How he became close to Khushi to this extent that Khushi accepted the rose given by him? Sameer Khan came into the top position of ASR's "to be checked" list.
Arnav continued teaching till dinner. Should mention, Khushi observed Arnav keenly. Don't know why, he looked so handsome and attractive to her that day. His smile... his expressive eyes... his facial expressions... suddenly Khushi got hit by the reality, she is admiring her husband man.... she heard her won heart beat which made her husband's voice go mute. She couldn't hear what he is saying but only her heart beat. She swallowed hard keeping her hand on her chest.
This new feel is disturbing her. The thought of "Arnavji is in Love with her" was making her legs week. She lied on the bed covering herself without getting sleep. Arnav though she slept so he removed his shirt to get changed into simple T-shirt. Khushi slowly opened her eyes and her eyes went wide open seeing him standing in front if the mirror shirtless. She shut her eyes tightly. Her heart started racing again. She pressed her heart as if she could slow down its speed by pressing. Without any idea of what his wife is undergoing, Arnav came to bed after switching off the light.
Next Morning.
Khushi opened her eyes from her sleep and as usual she was about to rub her palm, She felt her hand was being clutched.
She looked at her hand which was being held by Arnav. Her heart again started running. She drew her hand slowly from his clutch and rushed to the washroom to control her heat beat. This is the first time she saw him holding her hand. But she had no idea that is this the first time he is doing that or is this the first time she is seeing that.
A cute blush decorated her face. She looked at her palm smilingly. Is it really true, that her Arnavji is doing everything for her because he loves her?
She peeped from the washroom. Arnav was sitting on the recliner checking mails. She stood there for a while gazing at him. Arnav saw her and he took his towel to go to washroom. Today, however he would drop her in the college no matter what.
Khushi got ready to college. A one rupee coin fell down from her bag. She took it from the floor. A mere thought hit her mind. She always used to twist the coin to get cleared whenever she was confused. Why not she tries it now?
If she gets HEAD then Arnavji likes her. If she gets TAIL then Arnavji likes Sheetal.
She was about to twist but stopped. What if she gets tail? But somehow she should accept the reality right? She prayed her Devi Maiya and twisted the coin in air. It fell on the floor and rolled under the bed. She closed her eyes and crawled towards the coin. Slowly opening her right eyes, she looked at the coin. Her face lit as it was HEAD. She took the coin and smiled crazily.
She hid the coin as Arnav was looking at her with his raising eyebrows.
Arnav: What are you doing?
Khushi nodded no.
Arnav: But I saw you crawling to take the coin....
Khushi(in mind): Hey Devi Maiya, did he see that?
Khushi: Ohh Arnavji, I twist the coin if I'm confused.
Arnav: Are you confused now?
Khushi: Yes, that either will I get first rank or not....
Arnav folded his hands tilting his head.
Khushi(panicking): I'm not lying. I'm really tensed about my rank.
Arnav: I didn't say you are lying.
Khushi felt guilty and Arnav sensed it too.
Khushi: I'm sorry Arnavji....
Arnav: Hey relax.... I just am kidding. Twisting coin is a simple matter. I too do that. Don't feel bad for everything. Go and get ready.
Khushi nodded ok.
....
Arnav didn't get surprised seeing his car tyre being punctured and also didn't miss to notice a satisfactory smile on Khushi's face. She said her usual dialogue.
Khushi: No problem Arnavji, I will manage.
She was supposed to go but stopped hearing him.
Arnav: Of course no problem Khushi. I will drop you in the collage.
Khushi: But how? I'm getting late.
Arnav showed his palm nodding his head while dialing someone's number...
Arnav: Haan NK, bring your bike key
Khushi's eyes popped out hearing that. Will he take her in bike? Hey Devi Maiya, it would have been better if they go by car than bike.
Khushi: But Arnavji, what people will talk if ASR taking his wife in bike?
Arnav: Will people help you to reach the college?
She nodded NO making face.
Arnav: then come with me.
NK came with his bike key.
NK: Wow Naanav meri bhai, Bike ride with Bhabi? You became ROMANTIC yaar....
Khushi's heart started to beat fast hearing that. She recalled her yesterday's act of "admiring her husband" Arnav sat on the bike wearing helmet smilingly. Without any choice, Khushi sat behind Arnav giving enough space. Arnav really was frightened, what if she falls down? Because she was sitting in the edge. Arnav rode the bike very carefully didn't want to make her embarrassed. He stopped the bike in front of the college and removed the helmet. Khushi got down while looking at her surrounding nervously which was noticed by Arnav.
Khushi: Arnavji... please you can go.
Arnav: Yah... I'm going. (pause) Khushi are you alright?
Khushi: Haan.. of course I'm.
Khushi waved at him smiling like a mad. Arnav ran his eyes around them and started the bike. She is surely in some trouble. He will find it out soon.
.....
Sameer Khan Felt like, thousands of eyes was gazing at him. It made him uneasy. Why not? Is it that easy to be friend with Mrs. ASR?
Exactly within an hour, from the time Arnav dropped Khushi in the college, Arnav got every inch by inch details about Sameer Khan.
His record was crystal clear. He is from a middle class family, Joined in Khushi's college in scholarship, he had one sister and one brother. His family is expecting his shoulder for their support. His record is clear doesn't mean Arnav can be relaxed. Sameer Khan will be under scanning no matter what. He was not ready to trust anyone and definitely not in Khushi's matter.
To be continued........
Today's Inkitt update
Arnav in Action
LA saw NK was coming with his friend but he went without looking at her. She became frustrated and called him.
LA: NK...
NK stopped and turned around. He smiled at her.
NK: Hi... Where is Bhabi?
LA: Won't you see someone other than your Bhabi?
NK: I have been assigned to take care of my Bhabi by Naanav you know? (pause) but whom do you want me to see other than my Bhabi?
