It has been two hours since  she is sitting on the bed lost in her thoughts, thoughts revolving around her head about the morning incident. She was trying to cheer up her husband by taking him to basketball match, his favorite sports and that made the situation more worse. He mocked at her along with his so called meant nothing and he didn't even cared to look at her wound when she slipped and fell flat while playing.

She couldn't bear it, looking at her husband not giving a bit of  acknowledgement towards her and giving his attention to everyone present there, 'everyone' which excludes her.

She went away from the place,a place where she was not acknowledged.It hurt her a lot, Just like someone pierced a bunch of thorns across her heart looking at her husband who is smiling away at everyone, everyone which excludes her, his wife - a wife who is claimed as heart beat of her husband.

And now she is sitting on her now husband's bed from past two hours waiting for her husband, hoping against hope for the sake of love they have between them,but breaking the same hope as her husband ain't arrived at their door step, atleast for checking her wound out, if she hurt herself or not.

This thought made her spine shiver. A lone tear is stuck in her eye as a layer, not rolling down her cheeks - may be it was waiting for the right time to roll down her beautiful cheeks or may be it doesn't want to roll down from such a beautiful eyes through beautiful cheeks alas it depends on someone she loves unconditionally.

Arnav entered his room after full three hours of basketball match, leaving it midway noticing his wife's absence after almost two hours and as soon as he did, he left the match abruptly and came back to mansion.

Along with him, his so called meant nothing and her son with oh-so-lovey dovey Raizada's towards those two new guests came back.

She was busy in her thoughts and she didn't t noticed when a person who is in her heart and mind came inside the room.

She was out of her thoughts when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up, only to look at her husband who is in his track & tee.
She was blank for a second and then smiled a slow smile looking at him.

"Why didn't you tell anyone about coming home?Do you know when I haven't noticed in the ground, I became hell worried?", Said Arnav gritting his teeth.

"I was tired. ", Said Kushi with a slow smile yet there was a shin of tears hiding behind those eyelids.

"I was the one who played and you are tired?", asked an amused Arnav forgetting his fury.

"I'll go and get you your black coffee, you are tired, right?Go and fresh up. ", Said Sushi avoiding the later part of Arab's statement.

She went out still controlling her tears.

She looked at her family who are laughing away with their new guests forgetting about their daughter -in -law 's presence. It pained her more.

She went towards kitchen in silence and no body was able to notice her atleast hearing her Payal's Chan-Chan, May be their laughter over powered the chan-chan of her Anklets.

Or may be they were too busy in entertaining the two people over there.

After few hours,

Arnav sat on his recliner working on his laptop, looking busy. It was 8:00 PM and Raizada 's after dinner are sitting in the hall, chatting away and still those Raizada 's doesn't include a certain Kushi kumari Gupta Singh Raizada.

Arnav is hell busy working on his laptop and that's when Kushi entered their room with her husband's medicine.

He was indulged in his laptop that he didn't even know when his wife entered their room, too busy to hear her Anklets sound and too busy to sense his raising heart beat.

Kushi smiled looking at her workaholic husband, putting away her pain for sometime and concentrating on her husband's health first, which is more and most important for her.

"Arnav ji?", Arnav heard his wife say and hmmed still looking  at his laptop.

"Medicines?", Asked Kushi.

"Put it aside Kushi, I'll take it after few minutes. ", dismissed Arnav saying that still not looking up typing away furiously.

"But?please, Take it now itself!", requested Kushi knowing about her husband who forgets taking his medicine on time.

"I said I'll take it kushi, Don't disturb me. ", said a irritated Arnav still not looking  up.

"But you will forget Arnav ji, Take the  medicines or else you would fall ill... Arnav j-"

"CAN'T YOU HEAR WHEN I SAY DON'T DISTURB ME, DAMMIT?YOU HAVE BECOME A BIG NUISANCE, A DISTURBANCE FOR ME. ", Screamed Arnav at his wife breaking a vase and it was the last thread of a hope for kushi, she felt as if a slicer cut through her heart, and whatever a single tear she was holding up behind her eyelids, rolled down her beautiful cheeks.

She gulped down the lump forming in her throat and turned away and went to the poolside and then to terrace, with  a bleeding feet as those broken  parts of a vase pierced her feet.
