AR..

Arnav and Khushi were engrossed in talking about their designs in his cabin when suddenly a phone call disturbed them.

"Excuse me.." Arnav said and picked up the call after Khushi's nod.

She continued having a look at the papers trying to get some idea for the designs leaving Arnav to attend his call.

Arnav was staring at her admiring how cute she's looking engrossed in her work world. Totally dedicated and hard working woman is she.

"Chote?" he heard his Di's voice interrupting his staring session at Khushi.

Khushi looked at him and smiled a bit, making him smile back at her. She looked down at the papers again and he sighed responding to his Di.

"Yeah Di.." he said.

"Chote I need to go shopping today.. You know Akash's birthday is near and we have to buy gifts for him and clothes to wear on his party also.." Anjali said.

"Okay take the driver Di.." Arnav said.

"Chote what is this? I called you because I want to go with you only.." Anjali pouted.

"Di I'm busy.." Arnav said in irritation, "You know very well I don't like when you disturb me in my working hours.."

"Do I disturb you?" she asked in sad tone.

"Di.." Arnav sighed knowing her emotional talks will start.

"It's okay.. I understand Chote.. I will go with driver only.." she said in low tone and he knew that his Di got upset with him.

"Arnav.." Khushi looked at him, "It's okay, you can go.. I mean we can talk about this tomorrow also.."

Arnav frowned a bit, he didn't want to her to leave so soon. He wanted to spend more time with her.

"There's no need for you to leave.. we will complete our work for today.." Arnav said.

Anjali felt hurt when she heard him saying to other person to stay and refused her request to him.

"Yes as everyone is important to you but me.. Today you made me realize what's my place in your life Chote.." Anjali said crying.

"Di you're over reacting.." Arnav frowned deeply, "How can you even say such things?"

"That's the truth.." she sobbed.

"It's not and you very well know what you mean to me.. I'm coming now, be ready.." Arnav said.

"Okay.." Anjali quickly brought a smile to her face wiping her tears away.

Arnav hang up the call and saw Khushi taking her bag to leave.

"Where are you going Miss?" he asked smirking.

"To my office.." Khushi replied confused with his question.

"Oh really.. How? Because I'm not letting you go.." Arnav smirked grew even more.

"I will call my father.." she said shrugging.

"Is your father a cop?" Arnav asked.

"Yes, he knows very well how to catch thieves who roam around his daughter.." Khushi smirked.

"Oh really.." Arnav smiled raising his brows, "Am I one of those thieves?"

"Yes.." Khushi giggled, "And you're dangerous one and difficult to catch for my father.."

"Why?" Arnav asked.

"Because his daughter doesn't want her father to harm this thief!" she pointed to him.

Arnav smiled, so his feelings aren't one sided. She also likes him!

"Let's go.." he took his car keys and stood up taking his coat.

"Where Arnav?" Khushi asked standing up and taking her bag placed on his table.

"My Di wants to buy gifts for my cousin brother, Akash and I want you to accompany us.." Arnav said and extended his hand to her.

"But.. Would she like if I come along? I mean you didn't even tell her that you're taking me.." Khushi said unsure.

"It's okay, she won't mind.. I want to take you with me.." he said.

Khushi placed her hand in his smiling, and both walked out of his cabin with joined hands making everyone stare curiously at them and giving hot gossip to employees there.

Lavanya walked out of her shooting scene, and took a glass of juice from her assistant but immediately spit it out seeing Arnav holding Khushi's hand in office and both going somewhere together.

She angrily handed back the glass to her assistant and clenched her fist, "Who is this girl? Why is ASR giving her too much importance? He never behaved like that with me.. This is just not acceptable for me and I won't keep quiet also.. ASR is mine only!"

**********************************************************************************

Arnav's car came to a halt at RM, he called his Di to inform that he had reached.

"Beautiful mansion.." Khushi commented staring at his mansion through the window side.

"Hmm.. not more than you!" Arnav said casually playing with his phone.

Khushi turned to him and smacked his shoulder, "Stop flirting!"

Arnav chuckled and looked at his Di coming towards them.

Khushi unblucked her seat belt to give space to Anjali to sit at the front seat.

"What are you doing? It's not necessary.. Di can seat at the backseat also.." Arnav said.

"Nahin, she's elder to me.." Khushi said and got down the car.

Arnav smiled faintly, his respect for Khushi increased ten times more now.

"Hi Arnav's Di.." Khushi smiled at Anjali.

Anjali was already wondering who is this girl that came with Chote, when Khushi spoke, she faked a smile, "Hi.. You're?"

"I'm Khushi.. I'm working with your brother for next summer collection.." Khushi said.

"Okay.." Anjali nodded and got in the car, while Khushi sat at the backseat.

"Is she coming with us too Chote?" Anjali whispered to Arnav.

"Haan Di.." Arnav nodded and started the car. Anjali looked away feeling uncomfortable to have another person in between them.

"Didn't you recognize her Di? She's same KK I used to hate for rejecting my designs.." Arnav said.

Khushi giggled shaking her head at him.

"Is she KK?" Anjali turned to Arnav with shocked expression.

"Yes Di.. same one!" Arnav replied.

"Why are you still working with her then?" Anjali frowned.

"Because I cannot afford missing a chance to work with a person like her Di.. she's extremely intelligent and hard working girl.. she reminds me of myself!" Arnav said praising Khushi.

Khushi smiled feeling overwhelmed by his words. She was out of words for this man, is he the same rude and arrogant ASR who threw her designs on dustbin just because she hurt his ego?

"Okay.." Anjali replied not liking her brother to work with the person who rejected his designs. It seems like her brother is begging to this girl to work with her when he's number one business man in fashion world and he doesn't need her at all.

Soon they reached the shopping mall, Arnav opened the car's door for his Di who smiled at his gentleman gesture and then opened the door for Khushi.

"Thank you.." she whispered.

"You're most welcome Daddy's girl.." Arnav smirked.

Arnav held Khushi's hand and started walking along with Anjali.

"Chote why are you holding her hand? She's not a baby.." Anjali asked feeling jealous that her brother is giving attention to KK, the girl who dared to reject his designs and leaving her behind as if she's not even there with him and second point, she might be his girlfriend and she surely don't want a modern girl like Khushi to be her sister in law.

Arnav got conscious that he held Khushi's hand in front of Anjali, and she must be thinking in her mind that Khushi is his girlfriend.

"We both know the shop where to buy Akash's gifts.. she doesn't know that's why I'm guiding her.." Arnav said to cover up Anjali's rude comment to Khushi.

Khushi giggled, "In that case, then I'm really his baby!"

"What shameless girl is she.. she's throwing herself to my Chote.. Shii.. Unbelievable.." Anjali rolled her eyes thinking in her mind.

"My baby?" Arnav looked at her teasingly.

Khushi realized what she spoke, she turned Arnav's face away by palming her hand on his cheek, smiling lightly.

Arnav smiled, she didn't accept nor deny that she is his baby.

The three walked in the shop, Anjali already annoyed for being ignored by her Chote, pulled him with her leaving Khushi behind.

"Di I'm not a baby.." Arnav shoved her hands from him, frowning.

"She's also not a baby that you have to walk holding her hand Chote.." Anjali gritted her teeth.

"What the Di.. Arnav glared at her.

Khushi was appreciating the shirts on the shop and let them have their own time to choose Akash's gift. She didn't want to disturb or poke her nose in their matters.

She stare at one dark blue shirt, she held it smiling, "This shirt will look good in him.."

"Ma'am how can I help you?" the sales girl came smiling to Khushi.

"Can you please pack this shirt for me?" Khushi said holding the shirt in her hand.

The sales girl nodded and went to pack the shirt and Khushi secretly went to pay for it before Arnav noticed her and spoils her surprise for him.

"What's your relationship with this girl Chote?" Anjali asked directly.

"I knew your mind was going on that direction only.." Arnav shook his head in disbelief, "Can we concentrate on buying Akash's gifts instead of talking about my relationship with Khushi?"

Anjali nodded unwillingly, she knew Arnav wouldn't reveal anything to her if he doesn't want to.

Arnav went to call Khushi who quickly hide his shirt on her bag.

"Khushi come.." Arnav said gesturing her to join them.

"No, it's okay.. You guys carry on and choose the gifts.. I will wait.." Khushi said. She's not blind to see that Anjali is uncomfortable with her presence.

"Khushi come.." Arnav dragged her with him and went to Anjali.

"I think this shirt will fit on Akash, what say Chote?" Anjali asked turning to him and found Khushi beside him. Her face totally changed to disappointment which didn't go unnoticed by Khushi and Arnav.

"Yeah.. but I like this one.." Arnav pointed to shirt Khushi bought for him.

Khushi gasped, "No!"

"No?" Arnav raised his eyebrow, "Okay.. then you can take the one of your choice Di.."

Khushi smiled to herself, at least she got to know that Arnav liked the shirt she choose for him and he will like her gift too.

Anjali became annoyed by this. Arnav give up on his choice just because Khushi didn't like the shirt he liked. And when it was the shirt she chose for Akash, he didn't like.

"Chote we will take the shirt of your choice only.." she said only to show Khushi that her brother will listen to her words, not Khushi's.

"No Di.." Arnav denied, "We will take the one of your choice.."

"Chote but.."

"Pack this shirt.." Arnav cut her and pointed to the shirt to the sales girl.

Anjali became irritated and then watching Khushi smiled to herself, she thought Khushi was making fun of her because Arnav didn't listen to her when Khushi was just happy that Arnav liked the shirt she bought for him.

"Anything else Di?" Arnav asked.

"Nahin.. Let's go back home.." Anjali said.

Arnav nodded and after paying for the shirt, they walked out of the shop.

Arnav dropped Anjali home, Khushi waved at Anjali smiling, "Bye.. It was nice meeting Anjali!"

"Bye.." Anjali faked a smile and went to RM.

"I think you should have told her that I was coming, she clearly didn't like my presence!" Khushi said while Arnav was driving.

Arnav shook his head, "It's not that.. Di is thinking that there's something between us.."

"So?" Khushi asked confused, shouldn't Anjali be happy about it?

"They're traditional and you're modern type of girl.." Arnav said.

"Do you have a problem with my way of dressing?" Khushi asked.

"Did I ever said that to you? I don't have any problem with your dressing style.. I know what you're and that's enough for me.." Arnav said.

Khushi smiled, "Your opinion is what matters the most for me.."

"Shall I drop you at home or your office?" Arnav asked.

"My office.." Khushi replied.

"Okay.. tell me what's the way to reach there?" Arnav asked.

Khushi widened her eyes, "Unbelievable.. you don't know where my company is? Memorize it today because I won't repeat it again.."

"You think I'm going to make the mistake of forgetting where your office is?" Arnav asked.

Khushi giggled and nodded sideways.

When they reached in her office, Arnav looked up and nodded with mischievous glint in his eyes, "Handsome building!"

"Not more than you.." Khushi said finally what he wanted to hear from her.

Arnav opened the car's door for Khushi and she got down his car.

She walked to go but Arnav held her hand stopping her, "Mat jao (Don't go)"

Khushi smiled and turned to him, he pouted childishly like a college teenager.

"Then come to steal me from my father tonight.." Khushi winked at him and went from there.

Arnav leaned on his car watching her go with a smile on his face.

Khushi turned back to him and waved her hand smiling at him.

Arnav sent a flying kiss to her.

Khushi widened her eyes, she didn't expect him to send flying kiss to her.

She also sent many flying kisses to him, giggling and enter on her office.

Arnav's phone rang and he picked it up, "Hello.."

"Arnav ji.." said the person.

Arnav rolled his eyes, "Yeah Aman!"

"You're not in office Arnav ji.. Where did you go with that beautiful woman? Are you betraying me Arnav ji?" Aman cried.

"What the.. Let me reach in office, I will handle you both.." Arnav said getting in his car.

"Arnav ji we deserve an explanation from you first.." Akash snatched the phone from Aman.

"Arnav ji is my husband, he must explain to me only.." Aman snatched the phone from Akash.

"Arnav ji is my boyfriend okay.. he even live in same house with me.. We're in live in relationship.." Akash shouted to Aman.

"What the.." Arnav laughed hearing their fights.

"What? You married me Arnav ji and kept me in apartment and having illicit live in relationship with this chasmish!" Aman cried dramatically.

"And going behind the third one (Khushi).." Akash added.

"With me in apartment, you in home and third one in office.." Aman widened his eyes.

"The fourth one to walk on ramp with him also, Lavanya.." Akash said loudly.

"What the.. Lavanya is not my girlfriend.." Arnav frowned.

"But my second Sautan is na?" Aman asked teasingly.

"On the way.. she's still not.." Arnav smirked.

Aman and Akash forgot their roles and jumped in happiness hugging each other, "Yaaaaay.."

Arnav chuckled.

"Why are we happy about this? We are ruined.. My husband is betraying me.." Aman pushed Akash away.

"My boyfriend is betraying me also.." Akash pushed Aman away like kids fighting.

"Biwi and girlfriend stop fighting.. I'm coming!" Arnav said shaking his head at their craziness.

"With whom you were till now?" Akash and Aman asked him at same time.

"Hmm.. with office wali girlfriend.." Arnav replied.

"We are ruined.." Akash and Aman cried out. Arnav laughed hanging up the call.
