THANKYOU TO ALL MY FRIENDS WHO CARE TO COMMENT AND LIKE.
Part 16
As he stood before the main door his heart rate increased. He was thinking whether NK could do what he had asked him to do. He pressed the doorbell gingerly. The main door opened and he saw Khushi standing before him. He let out the breath he didn't even know he was holding. He patted NK's shoulder mentally, "good work dude" and smiled innocently t Khushi.
Khushi looked at him suspiciously. the way he smiled spelled trouble but she was not sure about the type of trouble. He entered the house and Khushi closed the door.
He looked around and asked innocently, " Where is everyone?"
Khushi replied - Everyone has gone to the temple.
Arnav (looking surprised) - And you? You said that you would be going back to buaji's place...
Khushi (looking irritated) - I was about to leave after breakfast but Nanheji asked me to make his favorite dum aloo for lunch. Then when I was about to leave after lunch jiji came to me and asked me to make badam halwa for Akash jiju as Nanheji had all of a sudden received a call from jiju that he wanted to eat badam halwa.
Arnav - Oh but Payal could have made that!
Khushi (looked at him angrily) - Are you suggesting that I should have left after lunch and ignored jiji's request.
Arnav (vigorously shaking his head) - No..no...I was just...
Khushi (angrily) - giving me an excuse to leave ...
Arnav vigorously shook his head again but did no utter a word out of the fear of saying something stupid again.
Khushi calmed down and continued in an irritated tone - Jiji could not make halwa because nanheji suddenly remembered that di had arranged a pooja for the successful completion of Akash jiju's US project. Jiji and mamiji had to be present in the pooja. Naniji and Nanheji also accompanied them as Nanheji was really very interested in recording the pooja. HPji accompanied them to carry the baskets of fruits, sweets and all the things required for pooja. Naniji asked me to stay back so that someone would be at home when u returned.
Arnav nodded innocently.
Khushi - Where is Akash jiju?
Arnav - He went to the temple!
Khushi nodded and was about to go in the kitchen when she turned back and looked at Arnav suspiciously.
Arnav stopped dead and looked at her...has she guessed?
Khushi - You know that Akash jiju went to the temple?
He nodded.
Khushi (suspiciously) - Then how come you didn't know about the pooja?
Arnav gulped and thought - Oh My God!
Arnav - Vo...Actually...Akash...
Khushi frowned.
Arnav (gulped again) - Actually I forgot!
Khuhsi looked t him suspiciously and was about to say something when the phone rang.
Arnav took advantage of the distraction and rushed to his door mentally thanking the person who had called.
He was working on his laptop...or actually just looking at the damned screen for 10 minutes thinking about Khushi when the subject of his reverie appeared before him with a cup of tea and some sugar free biscuits. He looked up and gave her his sweetest smile. Khushi gulped. It was actually harder to ignore him than she had thought. With his boyish smiles and wicked smirks he was irresistible. She focused on the tea cup as if it was the most interesting thing on this earth. Arnav saw her gulping and then trying to ignore him and smirked. So "Miss cool" is not so cool as it seems. He knew she was affected and decided to move in for the kill. He looked down at his laptop.
As Khushi neared him he waited with baited breath all the time looking at his laptop. The moment Khushi kept his cup down and turned to go she felt a pull on her dupatta. She turned back and saw Arnav looking directly at her and smirking. She tried to pull her dupatta but he did not let go and got up. Khushi was damned scared. There was no one in the house and Arnav seemed to be in a naughty mood. Arnav came close to her and whispered in her ears, "scared?"
Khushi moved back and looked at him defiantly.
Khushi - No!
Arnav (raising his eyebrows) - Oh really?...Lets see...
His hands moved to the back of her head and his mouth came tantalizingly close to her lips. His hot breath was fanning her lips further tattering her already shaken nerves. She looked at his eyes and then his lips with fear in her eyes.One part of her wanted to run away and the second part wanted to stay. He moved closer and the second part won. She relaxed in his hold and as he sensed her comfort his lips descended on hers. He had planned a small peck but the moment their lips touched Khushi could not resist opening her lips. With a triumphant smirk Arnav Singh Raizada claimed his wife's soft inviting lips in a deep soul searing kiss.
