Chapter 8 Khushi falls Sick!
Day by day he could see how strong friendship NK and Khushi have built up... Arnav was in fact worried and jealous! Whatever few girlfriends he had, they always cheated on him because he never had any time for them. They considered him unromantic, arrogant and cheated on him behind his back...
None of the girls ever understood his passion to work hard and become what he is today The Asia's number one business tycoon... Yet they all wanted to tag along because few of them loves the gifts he gets even if it's a first date... Some loved the luxury rides in his vehicle, attention media gives and how it boosts their career automatically in Fashion world by just one date...
So Arnav could not go beyond few casual dates and they never went beyond any basic understanding... Either media attention, too much expectations even before the relation starts, girls trying to always have another agenda on their mind did not really help get his dating life any better... And he eventually gave dating long time ago...
That was one of the reasons he did not hold high opinion about women and avoided them all the time. First they used him and then they cheated on him... He never found anything interesting in them to ignore his work and invest himself in them...
But Khushi was different, she was his wife... He has been mesmerized the day he saw her! His prejudice about women and ego did not really help and with NK on board, he has no scope to involve in her life... What if she also starts liking NK and cheats on him like those other girls? Though he had seen her as a girl with lots of principals, he did not know her enough to trust her completely...
He knew she cared for him and in fact put in much more efforts in their relationship compared to him... Yet he did not know how to approach her! This is the only department he is weak at... Love and relationships... Rest all he could handle with panache!
Bloody hell! NK knew a million time more about his wife than him! She has gone out so many times with NK even though always Nani or his friends joined them! And he has not taken her out even once... They were married now for almost two months but were not even on first name basis... He hated the reality and cursed his fate! He has no one else to blame but himself!
NK would easily mingle and do simple things like helping Khushi in the kitchen or helping her pick a dress or compliment her for delicious food or how she is looking? Why can't I do it too? How difficult it can be? After all Khushi is my wife, when did I build all these barriers between us? His heart chided him...
"Call me ASR or forcing her to call him Arnavji when she called him by his first name, NK is right I am one big idiot pushing her away like that" His heart ached...
Another thing bothered him was her way simple life style... She would never use luxuries around her or demand anything... Just always happy with whatever she has!
It was ok for her to go anywhere or eat anywhere before! But now she is his wife, the great Arnav Singh Raizada's wife! Why can't she simply go to Five Star hotels, high end restaurants and wear his collection...? In fact she never asked him for a dress for her designed by him! It was surprising knowing he the best designer and it also bothered him a lot...
He decided maybe slowly he has to try and work things out between them! So at least they won't be awkward and strangers with each other!
He suddenly realized he is the middle of the meeting with a client sitting in front of him and can't help but think about Khushi all the time! Luckily meeting was over with his team especially Aman taking over and addressing question and answer session...
"Nannav, I need rest of the day off today. I need to go home..." NK asked Arnav as soon as he came out of conference room...
"Is everything ok? Is Nani ok?" Arnav asked NK back... What could be so urgent? He thought when he saw NK sitting in his room so restless...
"Yesterday was cold outside when we went out for the movie and Khushi was wearing a lite cardigan... She has developed cold and fever... So Nani called me. I feel so guilty for not forcing her to wear my jacket..." NK explained.
"For god sake, she is my wife... Why would Nani call you?" Arnav was first time angry... How dare Nani not call him and call NK if Khushi is sick? And why would Khushi wear NK's jacket...? Good that she denied, Arnav felt possessive...
"Nannav, check your cell before you complain... She called you many times... You might have switched it off because of the meeting... In any case, let me go home and check on Khushi... Dr. is also reaching..." NK insisted...
Arnav realized he had switched off the phone and he turned it off to see 4 missed calls from Nani...
"NK, you know what? You can stay back and work. I will go home and check on Khushi..." Arnav first time picked up the car keys and left his cabin before NK argues or joins him to go home...
NK smiled and got back to work...
"Nani, what happened to Khushi?" Arnav asked concerned as soon as he stepped inside the house.
"Wait Chote, Dr. is checking her" Nani gestured him...
"Nothing to worry... Looks like a viral fever hence high fever... It will stay for 3 to 4 days... Give her lot of liquids and lite meals with these tablets every 6 hours... She will recover just fine..." Dr. gave Arnav the prescription.
"HP, get these tablets and syrup immediately. Make her lite khichadi as well" Arnav ordered HP and Nani was shocked...
"What? Ma always used to give me khichadi when I fell sick... Isn't it?" He asked Nani looking at her shocked face...
"Yeah" She said nothing further and walked out of their room...
"I hate Khichadi..." Khushi complained as soon as she saw the bowl.
"Khushi, this is different style... Lots of veggies and made with lentils and cracked wheat instead of rice... It's my mother's recipe... HP made it under guidance of Nani... Try it, I am sure you will like it..." Arnav forced her to eat a bite...
"Wow, it's actually nice... It has peanuts and roasted papadum sprinkled making it even more crunchy and delicious..." She forwarded her hand but Arnav declined...
"Just sit relaxed and eat..." He fed her the whole bowl... Then gave her water and medicines...
She was still weak with high fever and soon dozed off... Later he worked from home...
"Maybe I never realized she was always sleeping on sofa with that thin blanket and she never complained... It's my fault, I love high AC whole night but I was cozily sleeping on the bed with thick blanket, never even thought she could be suffering in the cold" He felt guilty about his ignorant behavior...
"It's high time I also look things around me and not just work..." Arnav thought and smiling hearing a small snore from Khushi... She slept like a baby clutching to the blanket...
"Khushi, I got 3 Salman Khan Movies so you don't get bored while you are sick and recover fast..." NK announced as soon as he walked in from work...
"So sweet of you NK. Thank you so much... Please tell me you got MPK, it's my all-time favorite" Khushi asked NK excitedly...
"What is MPK now?" Arnav asked angrily...
"You don't know MPK? Maine Pyaar Kiya... It's Salman Khan's first movie and a block buster..." Khushi replied still devastated and feeling sorry from Arnav...
"Oh" Arnav was still angry...
"Did you get any Bond movies or MI series as well?" Khushi asked NK...
"Khushi, I should have those movies in my collection... We can watch it tomorrow night. Today take some more rest" Arnav warned her to sleep when he saw NK nodding no about English movies... He wanted to jump in at the opportunity before NK clings to her all the time...
"Khushi, stop it now... Who the hell cries so much while watching a movie? Don't you know it's all fake? And you watched this movie many times before right? Unbelievable! I will switch off the TV if you don't stop crying..." Arnav warned her seriously... It was hard for him to see her cry like that...
"Laad Governor! Huh... Ok, I won't cry but don't switch off the TV, I want to finish the movie..." She was exhausted and slowly leaned on his shoulder and slept off...
Arnav loved her involvement in movies otherwise and her antics with every shot... She is more entertainment than the movie itself, he smiled and put her on the bed and covered her properly...
"Can someone be so innocent?" It was another revelation for him about his wife...
Prologue: Beneath a Silent Sky The hills stood in solemn silence, their peaks wrapped in a soft mist, like ancient sentinels guarding the quiet...
