Chapter 5 - Continued!
Day by day Arnav could see Nani always happily smiling and cheerful with Khushi fluttering around her all the time! It was pleasant to return to RM that has this new chirpiness named Khushi! Yet Nani could see no progress between Arnav and Khushi and they still acted awkward like strangers around each other...
Khushi tried going to Arnav's office once after Nani insisted... She packed his favorite lunch for him, Italian pasta with marinara sauce, minestrone soup and fresh salad...
"Khushi, this is office and I am always busy with work!" That was his first reaction after seeing her in his office...
"I am sorry Arnavji, Naniji insisted that I should bring your lunch... But I will keep it in mind in future..." She promised. There goes Naniji's wish in drain to have her enjoy lunch date with her husband, Khushi thought...
Yes, she carried lunch for two...
"ASR, can we go over this file during lunch...?" Lavanya barged in busy with an important project...
"Yes Lavanya, we have meeting at 4 pm. So let's get started" Arnav offered her a plate...
Khushi could see how ultra-modern, confident and sexy Lavanya looked with formal dress and she felt out of place there... She quickly hid her disappointment and walked out of his office...
Arnav realized Khushi has made all his favorite dishes and nailed them! He wanted to compliment her but then realized she is gone... He got busy with work as usual and forgot to call her... After that Khushi never went to his office. Even if Naniji pushes her, she comes up with excuses.
Arnav continued going to office early and came home late as usual... Khushi continued to busy herself in house chores, cooking which was her favorite hobby and reading or talking to Nani... Sometime she went to her parents' house and came back by evening...
It was almost a month to their marriage and Nani was feeling healthy as a horse and decided to climb stairs and go to their room! Nani happened to go to Arnav's room to wake up Khushi from her nap after yummy lunch she made... Khushi dozed off in the afternoon while reading a book...
Nani was about to wake up Khushi but she was startled looking around their room... Khushi's clothes were still in a suitcase lying on the floor. She was sleeping on the sofa. Nani looked at the bed and saw bed shit on Arnav's side has creases where as other side was as good as new... Her old eyes did not miss what it meant...
She almost felt guilty for Khushi! It's her grandson who needed to stop being such a fool, adapt changes in his life and accept his beautiful wife whole heartedly! But only if her thick headed grandson could understand and act normal, she sighed...
Nani then remembered couple of times there were major business events and parties and Arnav smartly avoided to take Khushi there...
His excuse for the first party was he was late and ended up going directly from work! He could have always informed Khushi and she could have joined him directly but he did not do that... Second time his excuse was that he really did not want to attend the party at all but was forced to go last minute due to some foreign delegates meeting him in that party...
Nani had warned him clearly that she does not want to see him again on Page 3 ever... But guess what the very next day he was on Page 3 with drunk Lavanya hovering all over him and media trying to guess if Lavanya is his latest girlfriend! Nani had seen Khushi's crest fallen face in the morning when she saw the newspaper and page 3 but she did not react or ask any questions to Arnav and went to kitchen avoiding to listen to grandson and Nani's argument...
"Would you care to explain Chote?" Nani asked him in a harsh and angry tone...
"Nothing much to tell you Nani... Lavanya and I were at client site discussing a project and ended up going to party together and then she got drunk... I just happen to support her from falling and then dropped her home... There is nothing beyond it..." Arnav was frustrated he has to explain himself like that in front of his own Nani...
Not that he really cared to explain his wife about his Page 3 Adventures, yet he looked towards the kitchen to see if Khushi heard him...
"Chote this is my last warning to you. I will not tolerate any injustice towards Khushi" Nani walked away to her room angrily...
Nani decided it was high time Arnav improves on his habits. Though Khushi never showed, Nani knew any newly married girl will have expectations from her husband...
And she had no idea about why Arnav was so reluctant... He himself had said Khushi looked gorgeous, she had seen every single day how much he loves her cooking and also wears whatever she chooses for him... Then why not make a little more effort from his side to make their relation work...
Nani came back from her memory zone when Khushi moved on the sofa and it made noise... Nani thought about somethings, made plans and immediately made couple of phone calls before waking up Khushi...
Same evening the interior designer came to help Khushi custom design a big double closet. Nani forced Khushi to choose but Khushi was worried about Arnav's reaction... She did not feel comfortable but ordered the huge double closet that she liked which also matched room's current decor... Arnav's bedroom was biggest room in RM so space was no issue.
She forced her to choose beautiful vanity set with full size mirror to keep her accessories and makeup kit... Come on, every girl needs it Khushi, Nani argued and Khushi agreed.
She also ordered Khushi a small computer desk and a laptop... Nani knew Khushi was still doing some courses and laptop would be handy for her online assignments...
Once things were chosen, she ordered Aman to follow up and get the job done within 2 days...
"What the?" was Arnav's reaction when he came late that night and saw how his room is changed to accommodate Khushi's things...
"Actually Naniji came to our room the other day and forced me to order all this to keep my clothes and things. Hope you are ok with it..." Khushi muttered worrying about his reaction...
"Never mind... Now that things are done already, do I have any say in it? Anyways I don't care..." He usually never liked changes in his room and that too liking changes made by someone else without his permission was out of questions for him...
"Sorry, I didn't mean to do any of this. If you want I will have it moved to guest room with help of HPji tomorrow" Khushi politely said...
"It's ok Khushi, leave it. I do not want to stress Nani over trivial things..." He controlled his anger and rushed inside bathroom...
She knew he cared about his Nani but she suddenly realized, indeed he didn't care about her as he just now said it openly... It had never occurred to him that all these days she was living out of her suitcase in his room, she had no full size mirror to check her hair or dress nor any space to keep her stuff... She was still sleeping on the sofa with a thin bedsheet to pull over... Just yesterday Nani got her a regular size pillow with thick and soft plush blanket from the guest room...
They barely talked to each other or spent time together... She at least tried a little by trying to know his likes and dislikes with food, helping with keeping his clothes and accessories ready in the morning and waited for him for dinner...
But he had made no efforts what so ever... He would rush out the door after breakfast, hardly say good morning after she wished him and come home by almost 11 pm daily... They would just eat and he would start working again for another hour and she would simply sleep...
Couple of times she tried asking how was his day but he responded with one word "hectic, crazy or ok" and the conversation died its instant death...
They were married for a month now... She realized she was totally unwanted in his life and he denied she existed at all in his life... Had Nani not been here, she might have been sent back packing to her house long ago, she feared in her mind...
Though he did not show his famous anger on her yet, she saw his efforts keeping her at bay... He couldn't even give her first gift in her hands, never appreciated her cooking skills or she taking care of his nani and her improved health... She asked her to call him ASR like his office workers...
Too many hints, he had dropped openly... So he doesn't like me or this marriage or both... Suddenly she felt like throwing up... She felt she couldn't breathe and would die suffocated... It was a very harsh reality of her life...
All these years she was doted on so much, being only child and now Nani also loved her so much... So what went wrong with him? She knew he did not want to marry but she neither...
Was he denying marriage because he likes or loves someone else? Or he just did not want to marry just like her... Knowing Nani, she would have easily accepted if he liked someone else... And now that they were already married, why can't he make a little effort? She was clueless and took the sofa to sleep thinking about her life...
"Is he in love with that Lavanya as media suspects? I have seen him in news attending parties and events but he never bothered to take me with him... Hell, he never even informs me where he is going or asks me if I want to join... Then all those pics with her, is he is relationship with her? Is that why he was so reluctant for the marriage?" Khushi suddenly felt very insecure.
"What would it mean for their marriage or rather her marriage? How will her parents take it if he decides o divorce her and move on with Lavanya?" Khushi couldn't help but feel depressed and upset...
"Devi Mayya, please do something... How will I know what this Laad Governor wants? Will my life go on like this forever?" She was worried...
"Did you just forget to write my husband's love for me? Please do something Devi Mayya and give me some direction if this marriage is meant for me, please..." She prayed feeling afraid that he may never love her ever or accept her...
Prologue: Beneath a Silent Sky The hills stood in solemn silence, their peaks wrapped in a soft mist, like ancient sentinels guarding the quiet...
