Hi guys am back. Sorry for the late update, I was caught up in work. Here is another one shot I hope u guys like it.

It a retake of Arshi's elopement.

Khushi couldn't believe that she is been accused of a crime she didn't commit. She thought at least if anyone could read the pain behind her silence, then it's her family. But here they are cursing her and calling her a bad omen. She raised her head to look at the man who was responsible for all her misery. Gone was the sweet and caring man, who has now been replaced by the monster he was before.

But what shocked khushi the most was the hatred in his eyes. She wondered what she has done to deserve this. She tried to tell her heart that he did it because he was in love with her but she knew the reality was far from what she tried to make her heart believe.

For some reason she was praying for someone to understand her silence but none did except for her Babuji who unfortunately couldn't defend her because of his state but one look at him and she knew he was helpless. But only if she knew that there was not only one but two people who has read in between the lines as everything unfold with accusations flowing from left to right at the innocent girl.

They both shared a look and read each other's unsaid words. At that moment they knew the culprit was none other than Arnav.

Garima after all her accusations moved to slap khushi but her hand was stopped midair by a masculine large hand that held her wrist. Garima and the others were shocked to know who it was. He let go off Garima's hand and turned to khushi, at that moment khushi felt relieved that someone at least was there for her even if it was the most unexpected one among all.

Over whelmed with emotions she hugged him, buried her face into his suit and cried uncontrollably as the latter gently stroked her hair saying sweet nothings in her ears, trying his best to calm her down. The second person moved closer and placed her hand on Khushi's shoulder, who raised her head to see who it was, and the look on the person's face finally rebooted her faith that not one but two stepped up for her. She left the first and hugged the second letting all her tears flow, the first unable to stand their tears moved closer and bear hugged them both. Everyone was shocked and numb at the turn of events with the expectation of one who was fuming in anger at the incident. That person was none other than Arnav, who moved to yank them of Khushi, oblivious that one of them was watching his every move. Arnav was stop by a surprisingly loud voice which jerked every one out of their stupor.

"Stop right there Mr Arnav Singh Raizada and don't u dare move an inch closer and keep ur mouth shut" yelled a furious Akash ( the first person)

This shocked everyone not only because Akash yelled at Arnav but by his anger state and the fact that he called Arnav by his full name.

Even Arnav was shocked. Manorama was about to retort but one deadly glare from Akash was enough to make her and everyone silent and numb.

He together with Payal(the second person)  moved a sobbing Khushi to the sofa and made her sit. Payal sat closer to her while Akash pulled a small console table beside the sofa and sat on it facing khushi. He then yelled for Hari Prakash for water, who hurriedly brought a glass of water to him. He then forwarded the glass to khushi's lips who drank  it content without fussing as Payal gently stroked her back. After she finished drinking, Akash gave the emptied glass to HP and focused his attention on khushi who by now has bowed down her head. Akash then placed his hand under her chin and slightly raised her head and smiled at her which was reciprocated by her.

"Are you okay now? " asked Akash and khushi nodded affirmatively in a cute and adorable way that made Payash chuckle.

"Khushi do you trust me?" Akash continued in a serious tone, a confused Khushi nodded yes. "Then promise me you will answer all my question without fear of anyone, especially Mr Arnav Singh Raizada" Another shock to all, but an even more confused khushi nodded not looking at Arnav who was throwing daggers at her but was royally ignored by her. "Good, then here goes.
Did he force u to marry him? " Khushi nodded yes, sending gasp all across the room with Payal throwing daggers at Arnav and Akash shook his head in disappointment as deep down he knew that was what had happened. " What did he use to blackmail u as I know u wouldn't have agreed if it wasn't of great importance to u as I know ur view of marriage and u wouldn't have done this if u weren't forced into it" Akash said and khushi bowed her head in shame to have thought that Akash would have left her sister on Arnav say so but what she witnessed a few minutes now made her even more guiltier. She launched herself at Akash and cried even more. Arnav by now knew now that the cat will finally be out of it bag but his mind didn't make him remorseful as he thought everything he did was for good and even Akash will Hate khushi when it's all said and done but reality was about to slap him so tight on his face soon.

" Am so sorry jiju,that I doubted u. He dragged me to the temple and forced me to marry him  saying that he will call off ur wedding  with jiji if I didn't agree and I gave in out of guilt for being responsible for her first broken wedding,so I agreed to marry him. Am sorry, am so sorry pls forgive me pl.........pls
...........please ..........forgive me" said a hysterically crying khushi. By now everyone excluding Arnav and Shyam who was profusely sweating out of fear that his double life and lies will be revealed.

"There's nothing to forgive khushi because you did nothing wrong " said Akash with a confused khushi looking up at him questionably and Akash again chuckled and shook his head at her cute expression.Payal on the other hand looked at her husband with more respect and love than before. She just wanted to kiss the living daylight out of him but she knew this was not the right time. Akash then continued " Yes khushi, you did nothing wrong as I know what happened on that day and I also know that he was the one who released that videos of you to the  media which resulted in ur molestation by some bunch of goons, you were later on saved by a man. " This shocked Khushi who looked at Payal and from her expression she realized Payal was the one who told him.

" And in regards to your thought of me agreeing with him. U are not to be blamed as my layback nature and quiet demeanor are  to be blamed. So u see. I will never be angry at you but proud of my baby sister who was willing to sacrifice her life ,freedom and peace for me..................So Miss Khushi Kumari Gupta, will you take this four eyes and cool guy as your brother " Akash said dramatically, khushi then turned to her sister who nodded yes to Akash request. She then launched herself in Akash's opened arms and hugged him giggling like a child and kept on nodding continually. Something that made everyone including Arnav smile but again his mind and ego over powered him and pulled Akash of khushi and scolded Akash for siding with her and in a stupor revealed the reason why he married her.

An angry Payal slapped Arnav not once but thrice for believing Shyam and then revealed everything to the Raizada family. This broke Arnav who looked up to see a broken Khushi and moved to apologize but was stopped and punched by Akash who warned him to stay away from Khushi. A heartbroken Anjali couldn't believe that her husband was two faced.

Shyam decided to manipulate Anjali but she put a few things together and realized Payal was telling the truth. She then slapped Shyam and had him arrested.

A remorseful Anjali apologised to Khushi for Arnav's behavior and so did Nani and Mami which surprised everyone. The Gupta women out of shame and guilt decided to apologize but Payal forbade Khushi from forgiving them as she was tired of everyone taking advantage of Khushi's selflessness, and this time she was going to support her baby sister forever even from khushi herself. The guptas left with their head bowed in shame. Khushi decided to divorce Arnav but the court refused to grant her wish and was made to stay with Arnav for six months.

During that period everyone ignored Arnav and devoted their time in making Khushi happy. Shashi regain his ability to speak and walk, and exposed Shyam for trying to kill him. He was sentenced to live imprisonment for double attempted murder and fraud. Anjali lost her baby after a few weeks, but surprisingly she didn't wallow but picked herself up and open an NGO which help divorced and single mothers and orphans. Khushi during her stay with Arnav didn't let any day pass without making Arnav's life miserable all in hopes of making him leave her.

Being it dancing crazily in front of clients to embarrass Arnav, burning important documents and even mixing laxative in his tea, but nothing worked.

With time everyone forgave Arnav including Khushi who saw his changed behavior which made Khushi deny the divorce when the time came. Payash after 2 years had a naughty baby  boy name Akshay,who became the partner in crime of Khushi.

Arshi decided to put their desire of having kids on hold until Khushi completes school and established herself. Anjali never married and devoted her life for the NGO. Khushi and Payal forgave Garima and Madhumati but kept their distance. 8 years after Arshi had a baby girl, who was named Sapna by Akshay and together with Akash and Arnav dedicated their life in chasing away any boy who came closer to Sapna much to the displeasure of her mother, aunts, grandparents and great grand mother.

Sapna use to enjoy the overprotective nature of her big brother,uncle and father  when she was young but as she grew older she began to hate it and ended up fighting with them but the Raizada men cared less.
