"Khushi" Garima addressed her gaping daughter."huh?" She replied still in daze. Having pity on the poor soul Anjali steeped forward " Chotey want to have talk with you. Take him upstairs." She whispered. "ohh" that was the only thing she managed to utter. Composing herself " this way" she addressed waiting Arnav.
Coming to her room memories made their way back to him. "You haven't changed the interior?" he spoke checking out her room. "Nope. I like I this way." She answered feeling self conscious. "And you still sleep with your Pochu?" He asked eyeing the soft toy with amusement. " Yeh..hh.." Khushi stammered bring her lower lip in embarrassment. Hearing that he let out a soft chuckle.
"Do you have anyone in your life?" He asked getting serious. "No" that was the instant reply. Arnav let out relived sigh. On which khushi knotted her eyebrows.
"Look khushi, I know you are not ready for the marriage right now neither I am" Taking another deep breath he continued "but I want to give us chance."
He spoke with seriousness. " Trust me princess, I had never seen you that way." On which khushi's eyes widened.
"But in this four years " taking deep breath he further continued " You have grown into a beautiful lady. Hell you are one hell sexy woman." He exclaimed.
On which crimson red colour spread on cheeks. " In the party you caught me off guard. In that black dress you knocked my breath out." And khushi blushed the deeper shades of red. Taking amount full of pause he further continued "I can't manage but see you as a woman. Don't take me wrong but I can't help." he breathed out. " I am getting attracted towards you." Turning around he exhaled.
All the time khushi stood there biting her lower lip with crimson red cheeks and shy smile. "Say something Khushi" he pleaded without facing her.
"Ummm...mmm..." taking deep breath she spoke "A girl always want her life partner to have qualities of her dad." By hearing this Arnav turned hastily towards her. Lowering her eye lashes, tucking hair strand behind ear she continued "and you are reflection of my dad." She finished with a shy smile and deep red cheeks.
" I never knew you can blush, princess" Arnav teased her with naughty smirk. " Trust me princess I will never let you regret on this." he stated with honesty.
He got all his answers. He never thought that the girl who can talk with the speed of 5 words per second can seat quietly blushing. And he was loving that specifically when he is reasons behind that blush.
On other hand Khushi was did not knew what was happening. She was feeling different, she knew if her bade papa wants this then there must be some reason and more over she was trusting Arnav. His eyes showed nothing but pure honesty.
"So your college is finished?" Arnav asked in usual tone. Coming back from her own thoughts she replied "Yes. I am planning to apply for internship at Rk, ZFH and Raizada group on this Monday." "No you won't do internship at any fashion house other than Raizada" he spoke with authority.
"Di, mailed me your work sometimes back. So I have decided to offer you internship long ago. And I m not offering it coz you are our princess." He answered her unspoken question. Khushi blushed again.
Everytime he addressed as princess she feels different. " And beside that after your training you can join Raizada Group as designer or you can do your individual work. I wont ever interfere in your professional decisions." he stated the fact. " Thank you" she whispered feeling overwhelmed. He had gained respect all over again with his mere words.
"Shall we?" Arnav put his hand forward. Giving him shy smile while biting her lower lip she kept her hand over his. Giving him silent promise to be with him always. Holding her soft palm in protective grip he moved towards their waiting family.
