~ Chapter 8 - Laughing together ~

Arnav and Khushi entered the house and straightaway went to their rooms. Awkwardness was really there... Not that they had done something wrong, but a feeling of embarrassment had engulfed both of them.

Arnav felt embarrassed for kissing a girl, no matter if she was his friend... and Khushi felt embarrassed for allowing him to do so...

But to break the silence, Arnav quickly grabbed his phone,

"Khushi.. I hope you didn't feel bad after what I did.. I mean yesterday..I.. I was just too carried away... Don't feel bad yaar.. I am sorry... I know its awkward but I think its okay.."

Arnav hurriedly pressed his phone keys to type the message and finally pressed the send button.

*

Khushi's phone beeped.

'It must be Payal' she thought and moved towards the table to pick up the phone.

"Thank you so much Lollipop.. You are just too good!!"

Khushi exclaimed and hurriedly hopped to Arnav's room.

*

"Arnav?"

Khushi barged into his room.

"Khushi?"

Arnav asked, seeing the instant reply from her side. It was not even a minute while he had sent her a text, and the 'angel' has herself came to give a 'darshan'.

"Arnav.. I have thought a name of yours"

Khushi said, excitedly.

"And whats that?"

"Lollipop!"

"WHAT??"

"Yeah.. Isn't it too cute!"

"And may I know how this kind of a name came to your mind?"

"Just like that. I love lollipops and I love y--" Khushi stopped, realizing what she was about to say, "I mean you are my friend, so Lollipop"

"That doesn't sound good Khushi"

"Oh come on Arnav! See, I have named you so lovingly and you are not liking it? You should also try this naming thing. Its really interesting!"

"Ah ok..! I'll name you Candy"

"Aww.. That is so Sweet yaar!"

"OK candy, now you go to sleep. Its very late now."

Arnav said.

"Wait lollipop! Do you think I came here to just tell you your name?"

"So? Whats going on in your stormy mind?"

"I came here to watch T.V. yaar.."

Khushi said, while stepping forward to pick up the television remote.

"At this hour?"

Arnav asked, yawning.

"You can sleep; I'll not disturb you."

Khushi said innocently, lowering her eyelids.

"Whatever!" Arnav said, laying on the bed, planning to sleep.

Khushi turned on the T.V. and started watching a daily soap.Then switched on to a Bollywood movie. Then to a cartoon. Then to a song channel. And finally switched off the T.V.

"What are you doing?"

Arnav said, laying inside a cozy blanket, feeling irritated by the act of constant switching of channels.

"Nothing interesting!"

Khushi said, while getting up and stretching out, feeling sleepy.

"Hey Khushi! Do you like Barbie?"

Arnav asked, as Khushi was about to leave the room, making her turn back.

"Barbie? Ew. Hell no, Arnav. I just hate that!"

Khushi retorted.

"Why?" Arnav asked, "Usually girls like her."

"But I don't like her. When I was young, I used to watch shows like Ben10, Power Rangers, Transformers, Avengers, Ninja Ninja, Carz, Dragon-ball Z and--"

"ARE YOU A GIRL?"

Arnav had to cut her on-going list of shows in the middle. According to him all these shows were made for Boys, and Girls loved doll-shows.

"Of course I am Arnav!"

Khushi said.

"Khushi.. You know what? You never fail to leave me completely speechless by your actions and words!"

Arnav said, while shaking his head.

"So what Arnav? Didn't you watch all these?" Khushi asked, "Don't you like action?"

"Honestly, I didn't like action at all while I was young. But after I came here, Aakash made me accustomed to watch all action movies and shows, though I didn't got a chance to experience a fight practically!"

Arnav said.

"Oh.. So come on lets fight" Khushi said and brought up her hands in front of herself, with one hand in front of her chest, and another in front of her chin.

"I'm sleepy" He exclaimed and covered his face with the blanket, saying, "I don't have anytime for your stupidity!"

"Haww.." Khushi looked at him with an angry look and threw a cushion at him, receiving a 'Ow' from inside.

Khushi chuckled and went to her room.

***

The Sun had rose, the birds had started chirping, the flowers bloomed and the rays of the Sun woke up a sleeping beauty. Who? Of'course, our Khushi!

It was a Saturday, the college was off. And college not functioning meant Masti!

Khushi woke up with a fresh mischief cooking in her mind.

She got herself up from the bed, tidied the blanket and the bed-spread, took a nice bright pink colored salwar-kameez from the wardrobe and went into the washroom to get ready.

She came out of the washroom, brushed her wet hair, practiced a bit in front of the mirror and went downstairs to the kitchen.

She quickly prepared a cup of coffee and arranged it nicely on a tray, and took it straight to Arnav's room.

"Arnavji" She called out, shaking him slightly.

Arnav shifted in his sleep hearing his name being called out with a suffix 'Ji' added to his name.

She again shook him, ''Arnavji.. Uthiye na!" (Arnavji.. Get up!)

"Kaun hai?" (Who is it?) Arnav again shifted in his sleep, believing someone called his name a dream.

"Hum hai. Apki patni. Bhool gaye kya? Dhekhiye hum aapke liye coffee laye hain.. Uthiye"

(I am there. Your wife. Forgot? See I've brought coffee for you. Get up.)

Khushi said, biting her lip and controlling her laughter.

"My wife?"

Arnav got up with a startle, completely getting that it is not a dream.

"Haan apki patni, Swami!"

(Yes your wife, lord)

"Oh, its you"

Arnav relaxed and went back to sleep.

"Arnavji uthiye na! Aap jaldi se coffee pee lijiye.. Hume aapke liye naashta bhi banana hai.. Chaliye jaldi uthiye aur teyaar ho jaiye. Nhi toh aap office ke liye late ho jaenge.."

(Arnavji get up now. You hurriedly have the coffee.. I have to prepare breakfast for you.. Get up and get ready. Otherwise you'll be late for office..)

Khushi said, pretending to behave as a perfect wife.

"Draamebaaz"

Arnav muttered and threw the blanket aside to stop Khushi from all this drama.

"Ji?"

"Nothing. Good Morning!"

Arnav said, not in a mood to invite any useless reply from her.

"Aapko bhi!"

(You too)

Khushi said and flashed a bright smile.

"Khushi why are you doing this?"

"Kya?" (What?)

"Nothing! Now get aside and let me get ready." Arnav said, getting down from the bed, arranging the bedspread and the blanket.

"Aap rehne dijiye. Hum karte hain"

(You leave it. I'll do)

"Tumhare draame ka kuch toh fayda hua."

(At least your drama has benefited me a little)

"Arnavji hum drama nhi kar rahe"

(Arnavji I'm not doing drama)

Khushi said in a teary voice.

"Then what are you doing?"

Arnav asked, as softly as ever, as if he was really her husband.

"Hum..hum.."

(I.. I..)

Khushi stammered and finally burst out into laughter, followed by Arnav.

"I couldn't control it Arnav" Khushi said, clutching her stomach to stop her laughter,"Its so cheesy!"

"You.Are.An.Awesome.Actor.Candy.!"

Arnav said, stretching his thumbs out.

"Oh Thank you Lollipop!" Khushi said, "First for calling me a good actor and second for tolerating all this drama. I enjoyed it too much"

And they both ROFL-ed.

..A Best Friend is someone who never gets tired of listening to your pointless dramas over and over again!..
