Chapter 3

The Gupta's and Raizada's were assembled in the hall of shantivan,with the issue of marriage of our very own Arnav and Khushi.All the attention being showered on them,allowing Akash and Payal to have their little romantic eye contacts.

Arnav was busy in a conference while his phone was with Aman.Suddenly Aman came to him and told about the call,which brought a smile on his face.They were looking at him as if they have seen a ghost because Arnav Singh Raizada was smiling. "Gentlemen I have something to deal with,Aman will take over from here."saying this he left the conference hall. He dialed her and she answered in the first ring but her voice took his breath away. "H.h..ello?Arnavji..."she started crying,causing huge blows to his heart. "Khushi what's wrong why are you crying?"he asked worried. Silence. "Khushi speak up dammit!" "Bu..aji said she will be searching good boy for my marriage."she managed to say. "What the...?So Khushi what's the problem?"he asked with a smile. "You want me to get married?"she asked with hurt "Yes ofcourse"

"You don't love me.How can you tell me to marry anyone?"she asked. "I never asked you to marry any guy.I just told you to marry.I am available you know."he said."Anyways no one will be able to handle your craziness so I had to make a compromise so that you don't stay spinster forever." "Hawww!lLaad Governor."she shrieked. "Now you look like my girl.Don't worry if you marry,it will be me else I will make you a run away bride."he assured her. "Promise?" "Promise." An hour later The bell at Gupta house rang.Payal opened the door to find Arnav at the door.She invited him in.Buaji and Amma came to great their daughter's brother in law. "Uumm...Actually I want to have a word with Babuji."he said straight to the point.They didn't miss how he referred him as Babuji.

"Sure babua."amma said leading him to the room. Babuji was sitting on his wheelchair.Arnav walked to him and kneeled in front of him.Taking his hands in his he said"Babuji I want to ask a very precious thing from you.I want to marry Khushi."he said in a breath,earning gasps from buaji and amma who were at the door. Ignoring them he said,"I will cherish her all my life.I may not be the perfect guy for her,but I will protect her,love her and walk with her as a true companion." Babuji kept his hand on Arnav's head as a blessing and blessed him. Present Shantivan "Chotey!I thought with your speed,we would have to make it an arrange marriage,but you went and directly asked her hand not bad."Anjali quipped. "Ofcourse Anjali.Its Arnav he would do the unexpected."siddharth remarked.(Yes guys you guessed it right.No Shyam in my stories.) "Its good that you did it Chotey!"nani added. "Nannav mere bhai,finally you did it.Akash I will not have to flirt with Khushiji."Nk added.

"What the..??"He asked glaring at Akash who looked everywhere except at Arnav. "Arnav bitwa don't stare at Akash everyone knew about it,even before you realised."Mami said. "Now that both are ready what can we do?Lets get them engaged."nani said. ...

Arnav's Room "Arnavji you didn't even tell me you were coming to my house."she said with a pout. "I would not want anyone to look at you even for a while as a prospective bride.Your mine only mine."he said. Khushi hugged him tight and said,"I am all yours." He embraced her and held her tight into himself. "Meri Junglee billi,aaj bheegi billi kaise bangayi?(How come my wild cat is a scared cat today?)he asked with a chuckle earning a slap on his arm. "With the fear of losing you I can even become a mouse."she replied,making him fall for her even more. "Lets go to the pool side."saying it,he took her to the pool side.They were standing there when Arnav suddenly went on his feet.

"Ehsaas e mohabbat hawaoon me hua, Ikraar e mohabbat nigahoon me hua. Mohabbat ki iss daastaan me lafzoon ka sahara na liya, Bin tere dhadkanoon ku bhi dhadakne na diya."(Realization of love in air,Confession of love through eyes. In this tale of love never relied on words, Without you didn't allow even the heart to throb.) She looked at him in awe with tears in her eyes because Arnav Singh Raizada was actually expressing himself in words. He reached his pockets and removed a box.Revealing the contents he asked,"Will you grace my life with your presence?Will you grow old with me?"he asked with a smile showing a pair of kangans to her. "They are my mom's"he said. She did not answer him,instead leaned and placed a soft peck on his lips. "Khushi this time I want to hear a yes or no.You said I never express in words,now when I am doing it you are going my way with actions."he said faking disappointment.

"YES! Arnav Singh Raizada,I will become Mrs.Arnav Singh Raizada."she said with a smile. He slipped the kangans in her arms and kissed over them.He stood up with a naught glint in her eyes. "Now that we completed your way of expression with words,lets go my way now with actions."he said with a smirk making her blush. He placed a kiss on her forehead,and looked into her eyes which mirrored his desires.He placed his lips on hers and felt her soft ones against his.She was in another world without realising what patterns he was drawing on her bare neck.He placed butterfly kisses on her lips,and finally took her lips into his.He was sucking her lips and she was doing the same to him.Licking,sucking and biting each other,they continued their kiss till they felt breathless. Finally breaking apart they looked into each others eyes with pure love. "Finally kissed you complete at pool side."he said winking at her.
