FINDING KHUSHI

Part 25

Section 2

"Hai Re Nandkisore!", Buaji exclaimed. "Babua, when I said I wanted to see you, I meant I wanted to see you standing up, not lying down sick!"

Gaurav smiled.

Buaji pinched his chin. "What a sweet babua he is!"

Ganesh & Anamika smiled to see Gaurav blush.

"Get well soon. You have to dance at Titliyaa and Arnav babua's wedding.", Buaji informed Gaurav.

"Ji. I will try my best.", the boy promised.

"You will get well soon and leave the hospital. How can you not get better with your Florence Nightingale looking after you?", Khushi asked in Gaurav's ear.

He laughed. Arnav smiled.

"The visiting time is over. Please leave the patient to rest.", the nurse approached Gaurav, a smile on her matronly face.

Buaji cupped his face, and told him, "I will be back tomorrow, Bitwaa, with jalebi for you."

"Ji.", Gaurav said. "But I will become fat, Buaji. All these sweets, and I am lying here doing nothing."

"You are too skinny, Nandkisore! Boys these days!", Buaji said. Then she leaned closer to his ear and whispered, "Put on some weight, Babua! Girls like boys with muscles, not bones, and that too broken. So eat all the food I bring. You will become healthy and fit like Dara Singh in no time."

Gaurav nodded obediently. Ganesh hid his smile.

"I will bring you phillum magajjines. We can look at the pictures together!", Mami offered Gaurav a special treat.

"Ji.", Gaurav said, a look of horror on his face.

Payal, Anjali, Nani, Buaji, Mami, Khushi, Akash, & Arnav bid Gaurav goodbye, and moved out of the room, leaving Anamika & Ganesh with him.

"You are OK? Not too tired?", Anamika asked Gaurav.

"I am fine, Mama. When can we go home?", Gaurav asked.

"A few more days.", Anamika said, brushing back the hair on his forehead.

Gaurav looked at Ganesh sitting by the bed, silent.

"Ganesh Uncle! I was thinking..."

"Hhmmm?"

"With this broken arm & leg, I won't be able to go back to modelling. Thank God! Now can I please, please, please, assist you in your work?", Gaurav asked.

Ganesh smiled. Anamika looked at both of them with suspicion.

"Mama, please ask Ganesh Uncle to make me his apprentice. Please...", Gaurav pleaded.

"You want to be a fashion photographer?", Anamika asked. "Are you sure? I know you help Ganesh out once in a while, but..."

"I have been begging him for years, Mama, but he said I should grow up and explore related avenues before choosing this as a career...", Gaurav confessed.

Anamika smiled at Ganesh. "He is right."

"I wanted him to know how it feels to stand in front of the camera so that he can do justice to standing behind it.", Ganesh explained to Anamika.

She nodded. "Take him if you don't mind him & that mangy cur you gave him tagging along 24x7."

Ganesh nodded, smiling. Gaurav let out a hoop of joy.

Arnav & Khushi stood near his car. He had dropped Buaji off, and was now leaving for his office.

"Poor Anamikaji!", Khushi said.

Arnav nodded. "Atleast Ganesh was with her all night. She wasn't alone..."

Khushi frowned. "Arnavji...", she hesitated.

Arnav raised an eyebrow.

"I found out about Gaurav when I called Koelji for an appointment to meet Anamikaji. But Ganeshji... Anamikaji must have informed him... and only him...", Khushi smiled slightly, her eyes twinkling.

Arnav nodded. "He seems to be very close to her.", he said cautiously.

"Arnavji... Wouldn't it be nice if they got married?", Khushi asked, open excitement in her voice and on her face.

Arnav leaned close to her, and touching her ear with his lips, whispered, "First, you marry me. Then we can get them married off."
