Chapter 4
SHOT 4
It was a regular dinner time at Raizadas and everyone was gathered.
"Khushi bachi, doesn't come here often like before. I don't know what happened. It has been six months since I saw her. Said Daadi worriedly.
"Daadi, it is all because of Arnav. Said NK glaring at Arnav. "He broke her heart the other day.
"What? asked a shocked Raj. " Why did you do that Arnav?
"Aise kuch nahi hai, papa. Said Arnav. "I don't know why she is not coming home.
"But, you only scolded...
"Shut up, NK. Said Arnav heading to his room.
*_*_*_*
"I don't know what magic you have casted on my family everyone is missing you badly. Said Arnav the same night when he was talking to Khushi over phone.
"Acha! Even I miss them. It is only because of certain Laad Governor I am not able to meet them.
"Are you really complaining Ms.Gupta? Isn't the prize for that good enough? Now you have Arnav Singh Raizada irrevocably in love with you.
"But, Arnav, when will we tell your family?
"I kinda enjoy having you all for myself.
"Aww... Don't be selfish. Awesomeness like Khushi needs to be spread generously.
"Acha! asked Arnav mockingly
"If you don't tell your family, then I will.
"Now that I have fallen for you, you have started to boss around me. Gone is the sweet Khushi.
"That is my speciality, Arnav. Total package in single piece. Sweet, salty, hot sour.
"I will know about all that only if you let me taste you. Said Arnav slyly
"Besharam, tell your family about us, then I will let you do what you want.
"Now, that is a tempting offer.
"Oops, Arnav. Hostel warden is here. If she sees me in phone, she will give me lecture on young girls and their awful habit of talking late night with boys. I will call you tomorrow, okay?'
"Okay, Love you.
"Love you too, bye.
*_*_*_*
"Arnav... shouted NK entering Arnav's room.
"What is it? asked Arnav nonchalantly
"Arnav, you have to accept Khushi. Said NK dramatically.
"Excuse me?
"Arnav, bechari is very sad. She was crying during lunch time today. Said NK
Of course Arnav knows it. Khushi was crying because she flunked in one of her papers and her professor scolded her in staff room. Arnav spent twenty minutes pacifying her over phone and even promised to take her for movie that evening. His duffer brother has interpreted everything wrongly.
"Relax, NK.
"No, I will not relax. How can you make my friend cry, Arnav. Please date her.'
A devil plan formed in Arnav's mind.
"I am not interested in her, but if you insist, purely for your sake I will accept her. Said Arnav in a saint like voice
"Really! asked NK
"But, on one condition.
"You will give me all respect an elder brother deserves and also let me drive your sports car whenever I want.
"AHH gasped NK dramatically. "My car!
If anything that NK loves more than his brothers and Lavanya that could only be his red sports car. Ever since Akash and Arnav gifted it on his eighteenth birthday, NK has not even let his brothers touch it.
NK was in deep thought. One sacrifice for him, but lifelong happiness for his best friend.
"Okay. Agreed NK surprising Arnav.
*_*_*_*
The whole family was staring at Khushi and Arnav amazed.
"Really! asked Akash. "You both are together, now?
Arnav shrugged mumbling yeah
"When did that happen? asked Jhanvi
Khushi was about to answer that, but Arnav beat her to that and said, "I realized everyone was missing Khushi and also seeing her sad affected NK. So, I decided to give us a chance.
Khushi looked at Arnav appalled who just winked at her.
The whole family was ecstatic about the news. They all missed Khushi and to get her back as a prospective bahu of Raizada house was icing on the top. They all gushed about how much they miss her and how happy they were for Arnav and Khushi.
Later when Arnav was on his way to drop Khushi to her hostel, she asked him how NK let him drive his Jaan like car.
"That is the trick. Said Arnav before explaining his deal with NK
"You are such a sly fox Arnav. I didn't know you were capable of this. She said
"That is my speciality, Khushi. Total package in single piece. Sweet, salty, hot sour. Said Arnav repeating Khushi's dialogue from previous week.
"I will know about all that only if you let me taste you. Khushi repeated Arnav's line
"That is interesting, Ms.Gupta. First kiss in a sports car, huh? Arnav wagged her eyebrows naughtily.
Few minutes later the same night, a red sports car was parked in front of a girl's hostel for solid half an hour and Khushi when exiting the car was completely flushed and thoroughly kissed. She corrected her dress and ran inside the hostel blushing, while Arnav looked at her retreating figure with a satisfied smile wiping off remains of lipstick from the corner of his lips.
THE END
