READ AT YOUR OWN RISK
CHAPTER
18
Pain is a part of life never let
it become the sole reason of you existence as you will lose your heart and soul
if you let it consume you. Hope and faith are sisters that you need to believe
in they are inseparable and to live life you have to believe in them neither
can stand without the other, like to sides of the same coin. Pain can make you
vulnerable and deceive you so you lose your way and will stay in that
loneliness forever but one has to remember no one can help you unless and until
you let them to, so to be saved you to have to let go of your fears and raise
your hand so someone can hold it and save you. Everyone says everything happens
for a reason but it’s not necessary that you will always be able to find that
reason out as time has its own way to reveal you things that are hidden from
you. It’s not necessary that you should always have a perfect life but it’s
necessary to have a life that you can try and make worth living as perfection
is just an illusion that tries to fool you to believe in things that never can
be.
Khushi’s life had been going
smooth as she had not tried to run or not tried to poke her nose into Arnav’s
matter or given him a chance to be mad at her for any reasons. She had been
talking to her friends and sister daily and was tried to get her life back in
track like it was before her life changing incident she had made peace and she
thought that before she was married to Arnav she had to take the permission
from Payal and now Arnav there was a vast difference in both the people but life
had given her this so it was best to deal with it than to ran away. She would
sent her time with HP and sometimes Samar if he was at home as Arnav was busy
with some work but he would always message her to have her lunch and dinner on
time and that he will be late. After the pool incident they had been getting
along pretty well it may not what she had dreamed about but she will try to
live with what she has got. Arnav would hear her constant blabber while he was
working on his laptop and she would sit by him and tell him what she did all
day and he would just say hmm… every now and then. It was not like she was not
afraid of him anymore but she had learned to deal with it and if she wanted
peace in her life she knew he was now forever included in it.
One night when she was
blabbering out of the blues she had asked him why had he married her and after
the words were out did she realize what a blunder and she done. She agrees that
now a days he would reply to her talks or question sometimes but she made sure
to not ask something that will increase the temperature of the volcano but
today she had done a blunder she looked at him and prayed to god that he had
not heard her question and looked at him with fear in his eyes and gulped her
saliva and braced her heart for the oncoming slaughter that she was gone get
and she had poked the lion in the eye and it will surely attack on her. Khushi
closed her eyes and kept on chanting please save me DM I will come to your
temple please save me.
Arnav had been a lot busy now a
days as two of his new project were going on the floor on the same day. A
fashion show and a new chain of their paradise hotel will be inaugurated on the
same day and then there the fashion show that will be held there. So he was
loaded with lot of work as it was in few days. So when all the work was done
and in two days there was a launch party he was home early and he was sitting
on the pool side and as usual khushi was on her side she had been a bit
comfortable with him after the pool incident and he liked her nonstop talking
as she was the only the second person in his life who had been given this
right. He had missed her foolish talks and so he was early today so they can
spend some time together. But her question had made him stunned as he was used
to her non sense question like what is your favorite color, food? etc. but
todays was a bouncer and he looked at her and he knew she was scared of his out
bust and that intrigued him because she had been comfortable with him this days
she had never shown the fear but he knew she was still scared of him so he
looked at her and for the first time her answered her I married you because I
had to as I had promised someone I will marry and I never break the one I made
to her and now you are my responsibility and I never run from them.
Khushi was to shocked to react
as he had not shouted at her answered her question but like always it was an
incomplete one but she was happy with whatever she could get as something is
better than nothing so now she knew he married her for a promise but the
unanswered question was who was that she for whom he married her. But she knew
not to poke him more and there was a silence around them that was broken by HP
who had come to inform them dinner was ready so they moved down to have their
dinner. When Arnav was on the dining table Khushi made sure she never talk to
Samar but she would feel so bored to eat without a word and so she started to
talk to Arnav on the dining table while having her dinner while he was there otherwise
she would talk to Samar.
Samar had tried to talk to Arnav
but he would never reply to him as he is invisible to him but he had seen how
keenly he would hear each word said by khushi even if he never showed it on his
face but he knew it. Only time his son talked to him was when he talked about
business. As their business was merged few years back. Samar looked at him and
said Arnav are you gone take khushi for the inauguration party. Without looking
at Samar Arnav said none of your business. You may be a 10% shareholder of my
company but remember that how you got that 10% and don’t try to poke your nose
in my personal life. Samar looked at him and said I know you never wanted to
merge our business if it had not been your Nani’s wish I would have been
bankrupt by now. Arnav looked at him and said I would have loved to see that
but this is great to, to see you work under me and that useless peace our your
brother who had been a leech for years sucking on your wealth for whom you did
everything he smirked at him left you when you needed him the most after all
its in your blood to hurt other isn’t it. Khushi looked at bother father and
son having a silent war no one could tell that actually they were fighting. But
she knew to zip her lips when they were on the logger head so she was having
her food without a word but when she heard Arnav as about his uncle khushi’s
sharp ears had been alert and she looked at Arnav who’s eyes were spitting fire
at his father and his left hand was clenched in a fist to control his anger and
she knew he hated his uncle as much as he hated his father and she realize that
maybe his uncle was like hers who may have hurt him in the past she had
understood that the tension between Arnav and Samar was to deep and hold a lot
of magnitude in Arnav’s life and she had seen guilt in Samar’s eyes she maybe
young and naïve but she was good at reading people.
Next morning when sun had rose
the first thing khushi did was she checked her phone and the message from her
friend made her realize she has to ask Arnav about this so she got up and got
ready in a lightning speed and made her way down to the dining table where
breakfast was laid and Arnav was busy reading paper as know a days he would
leave for office early. Khushi moved toward the table pulled a chair and sat
down. She cleared her throat and said Arnav ji I have to ask you something I
had wanted to ask you a long back but it skipped my mind. She prayed to god and
looked at him. Arnav who heard her speak and from her tone knew it was
something important and folded the paper and kept it down to hear what she
wanted to say.
Khushi looked at him and said I
want to go to temple today and I also want to go to Dehradun to my old school
as my results will be out and all my friends are gone be there as there is gone
be a farewell party to can I go she looked at him with her puppy dog eyes
pleading him to let her go. Arnav heard her and was startled that she wanted to
go to Dehradun but he was confused whether to let her go or not he knew she
wanted to go but the question was can he trust her. He looked at her expecting
eyes and said get done with your breakfast and I will take you to the temple
and get ready soon. Khushi was soon done with her breakfast and left for the
room to get ready.
As soon as she left ASR called
Aman and said get me the address of a nearby temple if Aman was shocked it was
clearly heard in his voice as he said fumbling with words bosssss youuu want
address of a templeeeeee. Arnav who was pissed of his fumbling said do as told
to don’t use your brain. Send the address to driver and bodyguards instruct
them of the change in plan. Before Aman could say any further the call was
disconnected. Arnav had been waiting for khushi for few minutes but was busy on
his phone doing some work he lifted his head when he heard her voice telling
him that she was ready to go. When Arnav lifted his head the beautiful vision
in front of him made him hold his breath. She was looking like the first ray of
sun in her orange dress that made her fair skin to glow and he was staring her
for few minutes when khushi shook him and said lets go. Arnav got up and with
the help of khushi wore his blazer and he held her hand and walked out of the
house.
As soon as the driver saw them
he opened the door for them and they both sat and the journey toward the temple
started khushi was looking at him every now and then as if she wanted to say
something but would turn the other side when he looked at her so when after few
minutes he was tied her said what is it khushi. Khushi looked at him and said
you have not said anything about my other wish can I go to Dehradun. Arnav
looked at her and said I will answer it after you return from temple. Khushi
looked at him with her hopeful eyes as if pleading him to end this suspense but
Arnav ignored it and got busy in his phone again.
Soon they reached temple and
both got down. Khushi walked to a stall and bought some offerings for DM and
Arnav paid for it. He walked toward the temple with her and up the stairs that
led toward the temple as soon as they reached near the temple he stopped walked
and said you go and pray I will be waiting for you hear. Khushi looked at him
and took the offerings he was holding as it was difficult for her to climb the stairs
with them. She smiled at him and covered her head with the dupatta and moved in
and gave the offering to priest and prayed to DM for her good result and health
and happiness of her loved once.
Soon she was done and came out
and saw Arnav standing where she had left him and walked toward him as soon as
she walked close to him Arnav held her hand and pulled her toward him that her
body banged on him and now they were hugging each other khushi tried to move
away as they were in temple but Arnav held her close and kissed her forehead
and said you are looking really hot today and let her go. Khushi had turned
crimson with his shameless act the passerby were looking at them with accusing
eyes and it made her uncomfortable but had no effect on him and he pulled her
more close and said I will tell my decision about Dehradun after my party and I
won’t be taking you there it’s not the right time yet to introduce to the world
I had said as soon as you turn 18 and we complete all the formalities the world
will know you are mine. He was talking to her and for the first time had said
his security to stay down as he though no one will imagine him to be in a
temple but he was wrong as someone had taken their picture. Aranv held khushi
closer and walked down towards their car and made her sit in the man following
them wanted to take more pictures but seeing the security he left as he knew if
he was caught he will lose what he had so he left silently without anyone
knowing.
