"Mere Sohneya"

In Malick Mansion
In Living Hall
A 2 Seater Sofa is decorated where Akash & Jiya are seated and Malicks, Mehras (except Abhi & Naina) , Raichands (except Anjali) , Saniyals (except Karan, Gauri & Khushi) and many close Relatives of both Bride & Groom came forwards to Bless The NEW COUPLE making them eat Sweetdish, circle Rupees Note on them to protect them from Evil Eyes and lastly with every Ritual Snaps are also taken. Youngsters from Bride & Groom not only take part in Rituals but also didn't leave any Chance to Tease them making them Blush.

[Akash and Jiya are sitting on this decorated Sofa.]

[Jiya's Dress Description:

It is finished with an ivory jamawar sharara.

Dupatta:

In Mehra Mansion
On Ground Floor
In Living Hall
All are ready waiting for Khushi to come so that They can leave from here. Soon Khushi came Downstairs holding Her Gown. Seeing Her all Eyes were on here. For Once They didn't think it was their Khushi but an Angel is stepping down from Heaven.

[Khushi is wearing this Dress.]

But Arnav Singh Raichand who was busy on the Call hears the Footsteps but when He sees His Khushi coming Downstairs. Seeing Her from Up to Down then Down to Up. He noticed every Minute Details that She wore Only Earrings which has Light Pink Gem-Stone embedded in it.

A Decent & Simplest Watch and only Ring.

NO Necklace and Bracelet She wore. She is looking like an Angel, His Angel who is stepping down from Heaven.

She is looking so Beautiful enough to make Him lose His Senses. He forgot everything around Him, even the Call. His Eyes held different Emotions from everyone. He was feeling numb seeing His Khushi like that.

[Imagine Arnav stunned like this.]

One word came out from His Mouth.

Arnav: Mesmerizing. So Mesmerizing!!!

(It was not only heard by Caller but also heard by Abhi who was standing so close to Him enough to hear it. Suddenly He Faked Cough which brought Arnav back to the World that He wasn't alone and once again Abhi faked Cough as in indicating something has struck in His Throat but Arnav is quite Smart to understand it.)

Arnav (Thoughts): Greattt…!!! Just great Arnav. Here We go Another One. I told Khushi I won't tell anyone but approximately I have told 4 Persons, first Karan Uncle, Anji, Gauri Maasi and lastly Abhi Mamu.

(Arnav faked Smile to Him not wanting to let Him know that He understood it and Poor Abhi bought Arnav's Lie, Poor He.

Then Arnav turns His Gaze from Abhi to Khushi, His Khushi who is Hugging Anjali & Naina while Karan & Gauri are Blessing Her. He is feeling Restless and His hand is feeling Itching Sensation to go to Her and Hug Her, Kiss Her like never before and express how much Beautiful & Mesmerizing She is looking, making Him bowled with Her Beauty.

He waited for little but then not having any Strength to Resist Himself He started walking towards making Khushi's Eyes Widened with Shock. But other than this She sees another Emotion (INTENSE) which She couldn't Name it while everyone stand still seeing Arnav walking towards Her, They were Feeling Curious what Arnav will do since They all are Aware of His Feelings.
Soon They sees Arnav coming very close to Khushi, taking Her Left-hand He Kneels One Knee on Floor, Bowing His Head He touches His Lips at Khushi's Left hand making Her Heart to beat erratically.)

Arnav (Bowing His Head completely): You are looking like an Angel. Mesmerizing… Enchanting. *Now Looking at Her* Nooo. I have no Words to express how You are looking. You have made Me Speechless. (Pause) I have almost attended every and even Held Top Designs Collection in Fashion Show and have seen many Models carrying Traditional Outfits on Ramp but NO ONE looks as Mesmerizing or Angel as You are looking. You are justtt… (Smiling) See again I have no Words how to Express.

(Once again Arnav Kiss Khushi's hand. Listening His Words and by His Tone it was clearly Evident that how much Truth He is speaking. Everyone knows their Arnav is A.S.R and never compromises on the Designs and will never Fake Compliment You or Lie You when You aren't looking Best in His Eyes. His Good is equal to other Designers Best and that's why A.S.R, Arnav Singh Raichand isn't Successful just like that. He is considered One of the Best Designers of the World. And when He, the A.S.R compliments You or You make Him speechless which never happened before till now, Khushi She is FIRST-ONE to make Him Speechless. When A.S.R Himself Compliments You its the Big thing.

Seeing the Public Display of Affection (PDA), Gauri's Eyes filled with Tears so does everyone as They never thought Arnav would take such a Step but He did and made Everyone Speechless. While Khushi who has literally stalked Arnav on Social Sites and has seen Videos about Him, She knew Her Arnav has NEVER Compliment anyone not even His Showstopper who recently made His Fashion Show a biggest Hit back 6 Months in Paris, the City of Love. Hearing His Compliment it meant a lot to Her and secondly She was the First One who made it possible that He can also Compliment made Her Eyes filled with Tears which fell from Her Eyes to be Wiped by Him who now is standing close to Her and shook His Head in No. She was so lost in Her thoughts that She never knew when He stood up. At this Moment both Arnav-Khushi forgot that They are NOT alone here and They are not in Bedroom but standing in the middle of everyone.

Then She heard Him Confessing His Love to Her.)

Arnav: I Love You so much Khushi. And will continue to Love You Infinity till Eternity.
Khushi: I Love You 2.

(And then Khushi hugs Him feeling Blush as She is still not used to Confess Her Love.

As Karan said that "Khushi changes in Arnav's Presence" and that Gauri now knows it that how much Karan was right. A Person clad in Blush Pink Gown is not Her Khushi but another Person who isn't Scared, Nervous & Panicking Person but a Person who is very much fallen in Love. Seeing Her Khushi like this Gauri turned Emotional, Karan side hugs Her. While Abhi side-hugs Naina & Anjali.

Though not having a Heart to end their Lovely Moment but still They have to as They are already Late and everyone are waiting for them in Malick Mansion. Abhi gestures to Karan and Karan gestures to Gauri to break their Moment but not having a Heart to disturb Her Kids who are so Happy in each other after a Long Time, Gauri nods in NO. Anjali & Naina also didn't come forward. But it was like now even God has seen enough of their Lovely Moment that suddenly Arnav's Phone rings breaking their Moment as well as breaking their Hug. Arnav though not wanting to attend the Call but seeing a Number which is Important and needs to be attended so He walked from there after Pecking Khushi's Forhead. After Arnav left, now Khushi notices everyone and immediately Her Eyes widened that They have SEEN everything and now They will start Questioning Her. Seeing Her panicking Figure nobody asked Her. So understanding it Karan says.)

Karan: It has been pretty Late and now let's start going.
Abhi: Yeah. But where has this Arnav vanished to? He and His Calls.
Gauri: Anjali We all are sitting in Car and in the meantime You bring Arnav.
Anjali: Ji.

(After this, all Ahead towards Abhi's Car while Anjali walked towards Arnav. In all this Khushi sighed in relief that no one has Questioned for Now but She knows it's not for so Long. She doesn't even know if She is even Ready or not to Answer if anyone Questions what She shares with Arnav. Hoping & Praying it wouldn't come soon. She follows outside. Soon Anjali & Arnav too comes and soon settled in Abhi's Car though with difficulty but its okay since They don't have Long Journey but just a 20 Minutes Distance.)

In Malick Mansion
In Living Hall
After Ritual Early Dinner was served. Even some of Guests have left after eating a Dinner. Waiting for Abhi, Karan, Gauri and 3 Youngsters (Not Arnav as no one knew Arnav has come back), JASHAN akka CELEBRATION hasn't started yet. And in the meantime Elders are talking to each other while Youngsters are busy making Akash & Jiya blush, nervous and embarrassed.

A Little Later
Finally Saniyals, Mehras and Raichand Siblings arrive and except Arnav all went inside as He got a Call which can't be avoided so He told them He will. Nodding Him all went inside.

All Family Members came to Saniyals, Mehras & Anjali at first asking them why They got so Late and then Hugs them. Soon They bless Akash & Jiya by making them Eat sweet dish, circling Rupees on them & then taking Pictures with them. At last Khushi came forward to the Couple. As She was about to make Jiya eat Sweetdish after making Akash eat, that suddenly the Living Hall gasps seeing a Person not just a Random Person but Arnav, Arnav Singh Raichand, A.S.R. If it was other than A.S.R then He might have been scared but A.S.R is used to all of this, as seeing Arnav, the Great A.S.R coming inside everyone especially Youngsters started Gossiping about Him but nevertheless They came forward to touch Him to know whether They are Dreaming or not. Many Youngsters came forward as well as Mehras also came forward to Meet & Greet Arnav but except everyone there is One Person who felt Top of the World as much as She stalked Him on Media, have seen His Pictures of Google but seeing Him in front of Her Eyes, He is looking more Charismatic & Handsome then She has seen on Google and that Person is Lavanya Mehra. Akash who was sitting on the Temporary Decorated Stage seeing His Cousin, Arnav stands from there and walks towards Him leaving Khushi who is feeling Lonely & DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO but since Akash has told everything about His Family including Saniyals and that includes Khushi too, so Jiya knows everything about how Khushi is. Due to Jiya's Efforts, made Khushi Comfortable around Her and soon They became Friends and as Akash said to Her, Khushi is really Sensitive so Baby like meaning needs to be protected for Her Innocence & Naivety, Jiya realized how true Akash was that She is really as One that Akash describes Her of.

While Jiya is making Khushi comfortable and developing a Good Friendship with Her, here on the other hand Mehras & Raichands came forward. After that They introduced Arnav to Malicks. Like this Arnav was made to Meet Everyone, which He felt really boring meeting Strangers, they asking all about You like really about Your Personal & Professional and lastly asking for His Autograph. He literally feels like to run from there as He hates these types of Meetings that's why whenever He goes in Public He made sure to Hide Himself so that Peoples don't really start running after Him asking for Selfies & Autographs. But thankfully as this Torture was over but then something Unexpected happened. He sees His so-called Mother (Ratna) in Saree coming towards Him holding a Girl's Hand which made Him curious but then let it go and was about to walk from there, that.

Ratna: Arnav Baby..!!!

(Hearing "Arnav Baby" from Her He rolled His Eyes and then turns His Gaze with not so Attentive Eyes. He could have walked from there but He knew He can't as He has Promised someone that HE WILL BEHAVE. Counting Numbers in His Mind, He Put a Fake Smile.)

Arnav: Yes.
Ratna: Beta You meet everyone but You haven't met Her. She is Lavanya Mehra. Daughter of Padma Bhabhi & Gaurav Bhai.

(At first He heard Ratna that He hadn't Met Her. Why should he Meet Her, is She a President? Is She a Prime Minister? Or some Celebrity or what that He needs to Meet Her. But then hearing Her Name though He didn't remember Her but knows enough about His Cousins Name all thanks to His Karan Uncle & Gauri Maasi and His Siblings who keep Him Updated with what is happening around as well as in the Family as They didn't want Him to miss out anything.

He remembers He was really a Small Child when He has last Memories with Padma Maami & Gaurav Maamu and One of them that They always give Him Chocolates, give Money to have Ice-Cream, took Him to Outings with everyone and on His Birthday They took Him with to a Party were They were invited to lift up His Mood. Since Arvind was Hospitalized so none Celebrated His Birthday. And many more. He was the First Child and was most Loved & Pampered by everyone especially by Karan & Gauri.

Knowing Lavanya is the Daughter of the same Padma & Gaurav who has pampered Him & Loved Him alot in Childhood. And immediately a Fake Smile was replaced by a small Smile and brought His Hand forward for handshake.)

Arnav: Hiii…

(Lavanya who thought that Arnav would never take a First Step but seeing Him forwarding His hand shake made Her surprised. And Overjoyed Ratna seeing a small Advancement forget that it was a just a FORMAL HANDSHAKE WITH A COUSIN-SISTER that's it nothing else but Ratna being a Selfish Lady didn't see that or if She had seen it so She cleverly ignored it. She took Surprised Lavanya's hand and made Her Handshake with Arnav. Then She nudges Lavanya who comes to Her Senses.)

Lavanya: Hi Arnav. How are You?
Arnav: I'm Good.

(Saying this He took His Hand back and giving Her Fake Smile, He was about to go from there that. He felt Strange looking at His so-called Mother as if She is on some kind of a Mission so thought to go from here before She started to do Her Drama but.)

Ratna: Arnav do You know She is Position Holder in Fashion Designing Course. Recently the Topic of Her Thesis was very well appreciated by everyone and got Highest Mark in Her Batch.

(Listening this He was Surprised and instantly He smiles from His Heart. And why not He appreciates Talent and likes giving chances to the Person who has Potential as remembering His Old those times because of His Talent He has now become a Famous Person.. If His Talent remained Hidden then He would not be A.S.R. Secondly She is His SISTER, a Cousin Sister)

Arnav: Oh wowww. That's Great. So what was Your Thesis Topic?
Lavanya: It was ……..
Arnav: Oh wowww. Impressive. Really.
Lavanya (Smilingly): Thank You. It's an Honour to hear Praises from A.S.R who is One of the Best Designers. I have heard A.S.R never...

(Saying this She stops in the middle while Listening it, He Chuckles slightly. Then.)

Arnav: It's not like that Lavanya. I worked hard and reached the Place where I'm standing now. And usually I don't Compliment anyone as No one made Me to Compliment them. If You do any work which deserves Appreciation then why wouldn't I appreciate it? I am now known as a Famous Designer after struggling quite a lot and know how it's Difficult to make Your Space and it's really Important to make Your Space or others will push You & move on. I know that Feeling. (Pause) And Lavanya I have always Appreciated & Encouraged Young Talents. (Pause) Lavanya if You got stuck anywhere and need My Help so I will be there to help You out.
Lavanya (Smiling): Thank You so much. It means a lot.

(Listening to it He Smilingly nods and then looks for His Khushi. After that He made an Excuse and walked from there. After Arnav walks from there Lavanya in Happiness hugged Ratna and overjoyed Ratna hugged Her back. And all this was Noticed by Padma & Gaurav who are standing a little far. Though They have not listened their Talks but Smiles & Expressions told them all.)

Padma: Gaurav what do You think about Arnav & Lavanya?
Gaurav: Not now Padma. We will think about it later.
Padma: Lakin Gaurav Ratna Di ka kya karoon? Aj phr unhone Mujhse Jawab manga.
Gaurav (Frustratingly): Ufff... Pta nahi kya hogaya hai Ratna ko? Usey churo just focus here.

[Padma: But Gaurav what should I do with Ratna Di? Today again She asked for My Answer.
Gaurav (Frustratingly): Arghhh… Don't know what has happened to Ratna? Just leave Her and focus here.]

(Gaurav has just said it that Karan & Gauri walk towards them. They Congratulated both Padma & Gaurav.)

Gauri: Both both Mubarak ho Bhai Bhabhi.
Padma (Smilingly): Thank You Gauri. Waise Abhi ne btaya Tum log kahai kisi zaruri kam phas gaye. Tum aur Karan Bhai chale jate lakin Khushi ko toh chor dete.
Gaurav: Aur nahi toh kya. Bht Miss karha Tum teeno ko. Aur ab jo bhi zaruri kam ho Shaadi keh Functions keh bad karna.

[Gauri: Many many Congratulations Bhai Bhabhi.
Padma (Smilingly): Thank You Gauri. Between Abhi told us You all were stuck in some Important work. You & Karan Bhai would have gone to complete that Work but should have left Khushi.
Gaurav: Yeah. We Missed You all 3. And now whatever Important Work You have do it after Wedding Functions.]

(Gauri & Karan smiled fakely at them and nodded at them. Then Padma looked at Gaurav then looks at Karan & Gauri, indicating Gaurav to talk with them but Gaurav nodded in No. And it was noticed by Karan & Gauri.)

Karan: Kya hua Bhai Bhabhi? Is there something Wrong?
Gaurav: Umm no Karan.
Gauri: Lakin aisa lagta toh nahi hai Bhai. Aap dono zaroor kuch kehna charahe hain lakin keh nahi rahe. Btaye na.

[Karan: What happened Bhai Bhabhi? Is there something Wrong?
Gaurav: Umm no Karan.
Gauri: But it doesn't seem like Bhai. Definitely You both wanted to say something but isn't able to. Tell na.]

(Hearing this Gaurav looks at Padma who nods Her Head so taking a Deep Breathe, He says.)

Gaurav: Yeah. Its about Shashi & Garima.
Karan: What about them Bhai?
Gauri: Yes Bhai.
Padma: Gauri & Karan Bhai woh Garima Jiji pochri hain toh kya socha hai Aap logo ne Khushi & Shyam keh Rishte jeh barema.

[Padma: Gauri & Karan Bhai umm Garima Jiji was asking what have You thought about Khushi & Shyam's Relationship.]

(Hearing this Gauri's & Karan's Eyes got Widened as They literally forgot about this Alliance but now remembering it both Gauri & Karan looks at each other. Well at first they were Sceptical about this Alliance as They know Their Daughter Khushi She would not be Happy. And now when They knows in whom Their Daughter's Happiness resides in so now How would They accept this Proposal.)

Karan: Bhabhi You are Aware how Khushi is. Though for Our Happiness She would Marry but inside this Relationship would Suffocate Her so that's why We couldn't say anything. But now We are seeing Khushi's Happiness resides in someone. So tell them it's NO for us.
Gaurav: Okay We would. Sun keh Acha laga. Jis main bhi Humari Bachi ki khushi ho qubool hai woh Humain. Humare liye Khushi, Humari Lavanya aur Piya ki tarhan hai.

[Gaurav: Glad to hear this. In whom Our Daughter's Happiness resides in We accept it. For us Khushi is like Our Lavanya and Piya.]

(Hearing this Gauri & Karan Smiles. Off-course They are aware Mehras Loves their Trio Children but Khushi is favourite of everyone like Arnav. Then They Started talking with each other on different Topics. Then they heard a sudden Announcement from Jiya (Akash's Wife) or Bride's Sister, Sonia Malick.)

Sonia: Assalam o Alaikum everyone how are You all. Well Today I'm really Happy as Today My Sister Jiya Malick became Jiya Akash Mehra. I still remember their Cute & Sweet Love Story both of them were very Shy and now look at them How Bold They have became.

(And then Jiya who is sitting on Stage raises Her hand in Air to hit Her and.)

Sonia: See see I just spoke a Truth and She is ready to hit Me.

(Hearing this Jiya became embarrass immediately while Audience who were seeing Sonia & then Jiya then Sonia then again Jiya, Chuckles.)

Sonia: Anyways. So I was telling I'm really Happy for My Big Sister who became a Mehra. Her Long-Period Relationship finally ended. She has seen Ups & Downs in this Relationship. But as its said Whose Love is True & Pure, Their Love can defeat their Destiny and no one can separate them. This happened with Jiya Jiji & Akash Jiju. I wish You both get every Happiness of the World. I will going to Miss You a lot, Jiji.

(Suddenly Sonia's Eyes got filled as well as Jiya and Jiya's Family as soon Their Jiya will be leaving their Home and will go to Mehra Mansion where Her Husband lives.
Wiping Her Tears, Sonia continues.)

Sonia: Sorry I got Emotional. When Mom & Noor (Jiya's Youngest Sister) were discussing about Jiya's Attires so both of them with Jiya Jiji started Crying. On asking Me why I wasn't Crying so I replied or rather I challenged them I wouldn't Cry not even on Her Rukhsati (Bidaai) but see Today itself I started Crying. Saying or Challenging is easy but doing it's Difficult. (To Jiya) Jiji sorry itself I lost from You but still I'm Happy even I cry Buckets because finally Your Love has got a Name as well as Your Relationship.

(With every word Sonia's Eyes were filled with Tears and everyone's Eyes weren't Dry either.)

Sonia: I wish You all the Best Jiya Jiji & Akash Jiju please make My Jiji happy. She wouldn't tell You anything if something disturbs Her so You have to find it and please do Scold Her whenever She did something Wrong. Please Akash Jiju make Her Happy.

(Hearing this, Akash who is standing with His Cousins Youngsters of Mehras, Nodded at Sonia Smilingly. Then.)

Sonia: Thank You so much Jiju. (Pause) On this Beautiful Occasion fortunately We have A.S.R Famous Singer and Leader of Famous Band "Fantastic Rs" around us. A.S.R Sir can I request You to Sing a Song and make Today's Day more Memorable. Please Sir.

(Sonia asks Hopingly while everyone suddenly started to scream "YES" as They wanted to hear A.S.R to Sing. While Arnav's Eyes widened listening to this and He immediately Denied even after His Siblings asked Him to Sing.

Yes, Arnav is standing with His Siblings. After Conversation with Lavanya, Arnav walks towards His Siblings. And 4 Siblings started to spend amazing Quality Time with each other. Listening to Sonia's words He looks at Khushi. Then hearing Sonia's Request and everyone's Yes His Eyes widened. His Siblings also asked Him to but He denies.

Then Arnav's Cousins came to Arnav and also asked Him to Sing. Then Elders too came and even They also asked the same.)

Abhi: Arnav, why aren't You Singing? You Love Singing na?
Arnav: Maamu firstly I don't have My Guitar with Me. And secondly I have always sung with Fantastic Rs.
Abhi: Well about Fantastic Rs I can't say anything but about Guitar I think We can manage that. So will You sing then?

(Listening it Arnav was about to deny again but then seeing Khushi's Face who Nods in Yes, Blinks Her Eyes and mouths "PLEASE". And then how can Arnav ever deny His Love so He nods making everyone Happy.)

Arnav: If Guitar can be arranged then I'm ready to Sing.
Abhi: Great then.

(And then Abhi asks Akash who asks Sidhant (Jiya's only Brother) and nods since Sid Loves Singing and have Guitar but have always played in His Room.

After Akash asks Sidhant, He runs to His Room to bring it.)

Akash: Arnav Bhai, Sidhant Jiya's only Brother has Guitar. I have asked Him.
Arnav: Okay.

(Soon Sidhant brought the Guitar and hand it over to Arnav who continued looking at Khushi after She asked Him to Sing. Taking Guitar in His Hand, He still continues seeing Her making Her Blush.

Then Gaurav, Abhi & Jay ask everyone to step back to give some Space to Arnav. Instead of hearing this, the opposite happened as when everyone got to know Arnav, The Leader of Fantastic Rs is going to Sing, Peoples came close and some took out their Mobiles to Record the Song.

Taking the Guitar in His hand and adjusted the Guitar.)

Arnav: Wait. Let Me try first.

(All nodded. And Arnav's hand touches the Strings of Guitar and Tune comes which is a little harsh but still sweet to all. Then He started adjusting the Strings from TUNERS-raise & lower the pitch of Guitar.

After adjusting the Strings He strums the Guitar.

Then finds it okay. He give THUMBS UP.)

Arnav: Ready.

(Arnav is ready to Sing a Song while Everyone are also ready to hear Him.)

[Imagine Arnav strumming the Strings of Electronic Guitar and creating this Melodic Instrumental]

INSTRUMENTAL

(After giving Signal, His expert Fingers started Strumming the Guitar and a Beautiful Tune is created. His hand is Strumming the Guitar while He remembers His Khushi, His Love with His closed Eyes.)

(Expressing His Love through a Song that how much She matters to Him through every Lyrics of His Song.)

Song Ends

(He ended the Song. As soon as He ends the Song He hears Huge Living Hall is echoed by large applause of response. All Claps their Hands. But it doesn't matter to Him what everyone thinks of Him. Only what His Khushi think of Him matters to Him. And He wasn't disappointed as His Love's Teary Eyes says it all.

Many came forward to Him to handshake and to say how Good He was. Many came forward and He absented Mindly shaked His hands with them as His whole Attention was on His Khushi. Then He heard someone Whispering in His Ears which bring His Senses back.)

Karan (Teasingly): So did She like it? Or shall I say Love it? I never thought You would notice My Daughter so much. Have some Shame Dude, You are Confessing Your Love infront of so many People.

(And what Response Karan got from Arnav Amused Him as for the first Time He sees Arnav BLUSHING. Yes Arnav Singh Raichand is blushing. Then Chuckling at Him, Karan whispers again.)

Karan: You are One in a Million. But tell Me something what was Her Reaction.

(As Arnav hears it, Arnav raises His Eyes at His Khushi who is Blushing at Anjali's talk as there Anjali is Teasing Her making Her Blush like here Karan is doing with Him. Looking at Her, Arnav replies)

Arnav: She Loves it. Her Eyes says all.

(Then looking at Karan. He says something for the first Time which made Karan shocked.)

Arnav: Uncle I have never asked anything from You but Today I want to ask Khushi's hand for Me. It's getting too difficult for Me. Mein sab keh samne apna Pyaar ka Izhar karna chahata hoon. Bina kisi ki fikar kiye keh koi kya sochega I want to Hug Her aur pochoon keh KAISE LAGA USKO?

[Arnav: I want to express and Shower My Love on Her infront of everyone. Without worrying that who will think what about us I want to hug Her and ask Her DID SHE LIKE IT?]

(Saying this Arnav take a little Pause)

Arnav: If right now I would be Her Husband or at least Her Fiance I would say I'M SINGING THIS SONG JUST FOR HER. Even when She nodded at Me and mouthing "PLEASE" only then I got ready to Sing for Her. Whatever I sang is for Her taking Her Appearance in My Mind. (Pause) Uncle Day by Day it's getting hard for Me seeing Her in front of Me I couldn't show My Love to Her. And I'm Scared too Uncle.
Karan: I understand Arnav. But Khushi is very Young to understand the Relationship of Husband & Wife.
Arnav (Sighing): I know Uncle and that is why I'm still Silent. (Pause) But Uncle I want to Name My Relation before anyone Misunderstands Her and Our Relationship. And then I will not stop if someone mispoints Her. Uncle I'm not saying to Marry right away but at least Our Alliance can be fixed and it's only Right as that will Save anyone Misjudging us. And later We can Marry when She is Ready.

(Listening to Him Karan knows Arnav is right. Their Alliance needs to be fixed before anyone Misunderstands & Misjudge their Pure Relationship and His Innocent Daughter.

Sighingly.)

Karan: Arnav We will think about it Later. Not now. Let Akash's Wedding Rituals get over first then We will see.
Arnav: Okay.

(Then Karan walks from there leaving Arnav in His thoughts.)

Arnav: No I can't. Though We will see after Akash Wedding Rituals get over but for now I need to Amend My Relationship with HER (Ratna) as She will take My Proposal and start giving Hints to Her about My Love for Khushi.

(Arnav was lost in His thoughts that He heard EXCUSE ME which brings Him back.)

Person: Excuse Me.
Arnav: Yes.
Akash: Arnav Bhai She is Jiya, My Wife now.
Arnav: Oh Sorry. Congratulations.
Akash & Jiya: Thank You.
Jiya: Thank You for Congratulating and Singing a Song its matter a lot to Me. Thank You so much.
Arnav: Oh no no…
Akash: Yes Arnav Bhai thank you. You could have denied but then You sang making Tonight's Night more Memorable for Us.

(Saying this Akash hugged Him. And Arnav hugs Him back. Then breaking the Hug.)

Arnav: It's Okay Akash. I haven't done something Big for which You are getting Emotional. Okay.

(Saying this Arnav walks from there to meet more Peoples who came to Him telling "He was Fab" to which He nodded Fake smilingly.

While here.)

Jiya: Is he like this?

(Jiya questions Akash seeing Arnav's behaviour.)

Akash: Yeah Arnav Bhai is like this only. He doesn't like Mingling too much nor He likes getting Emotional.
Jiya: Okay.

(What could Jiya ask more to Him. Then someone calls them and JASHAN of Night continues. The Girls and Boys Team from Bride's Side came forward to Dance on different Songs while giving THUMBS DOWN to Groom's Side. Taking the Challenge Groom's Side Youngsters shows them THUMBS DOWN.

Night was still Young as Bride's Side continues to Entertain through their never ending Dance.)

In Late Night
In Mehra Mansion
It has been a Pretty Late Night when Mehras, Saniyals & Raichands came from Malick's Mansion after enjoying a lot & having Dinner.
As soon as Everyone came to Home they all dispersed to their Rooms.

In Akash's Room
Akash has already said Arnav, Vivaan and Dhruv (Arnav's Sibling) will share Akash's Room. So Vivaan & Akash went to the Room while Dhruv & Arnav who was coming in another Car took Time to reach in Ayaan's (Palwasha & Jay's Eldest Son) Car as They went to do to some Urgent Work, They went to Airport to receive Arnav's Packet.

Now coming to the Room while Dhruv went to Ratna's Room and Akash was in the Washroom so there was only Vivaan and Arnav.
Seeing Arnav, at first Vivaan debated what to say. Noticing it Arnav asked.

Arnav: What is it Vivaan, do You want to say something?
Vivaan: Ummm wohhhh…

(Seeing Nervous Vivaan, Arnav Smiles at Vivaan. Though Vivaan is a Notorious Kid but still He is like Khushi. Arnav could not help but to say.)

Arnav: You are just like Khushi.

(Listening this Vivaan though could not understand but didn't say anything.)

Arnav: Vivaan what is it? You know You can say anything. You are just like Dhruv to Me so don't hesitate. Okay?

(These words made Vivaan smile and give Him Courage.)

Vivaan: Thank You. Woh I wanted to say You sang beautifully. Could You teach Me how to play Guitar? Woh I admired You a lot. I have seen Your Recording Videos & Concert Video and really Admires You how You play Guitar and how You sing. So Arnav Bhai can You teach Me?

(Vivaan says it nervously to Him and His Finger crossed just like Khushi. Hearing Him Arnav smiles more and Ruffles Vivaan's hair like a Big Brother does to His Younger Brother.)

Arnav: You know Vivaan I have always said to Karan Uncle I am there to help You. Vivaan in whatever help You need I will help You. You don't need to hesitate with Me. I don't say but mean it when I say You are like Dhruv to Me. (Pause) You want Me to teach You so I will teach You. Okay. Whatever it is, just come straight to Me. Don't need to think and Hesitate with Me. Okay?

(Listening this Vivaan's Happiness knew no Bounds and His Eyes Twinkled in Happiness.)

Arnav (Thinking): You are just like My Khushi in many ways.

(Smilingly He says to Himself then to Vivaan.)

Arnav: So from when I started Teaching You?
Vivaan: Arnav Bhai woh I don't even know how to hold a Guitar so it will take a Huge Time.
Arnav (Interruptingly): That's fine.

(Arnav was about to say more that He sees Akash coming from the Washroom in New pair of Clothes and Towel on His Hair indicating He has just taken a Bath. Sitting beside Arnav and Vivaan.)

Akash: Arnav Bhai sorry You couldn't get a Room as all Rooms are Occupied. Sorry.
Arnav: That's fine Akash. You don't need to Apologize. I understand.

(Then Dhruv comes in the Room dragging Payal His Twin with Him.)

Arnav: Payu (Nickname of Payal) You here. I thought You were sleeping.
Payal:  Bhai I was sleeping but this Idiot broke My sleep.

(Saying this Playfully She hit Dhruv's Shoulder.)

Dhruv: Arre what did I do? I did the only Right thing. It was Your Fault who told You to Sleep.

(Saying this Dhruv also playfully hit Payal's Shoulder while Payal's Mouth opened in "O". She was about to retort that Arnav came in the middle and.)

Arnav: Okay Times up. Dhruv You tell Me why did You broke Her Sleep?
Dhruv: Bhai it was Her fault and I did Correct. She forgot whenever We Siblings are together We never Sleep but whole Night till Morning We remain Awake. But this Idiot forgetting Our Old tradition, She slept so it was necessary on My Part to Correct Her.

(Saying this Dhruv pouted like a Baby. Remembering it Payal's Eyes widened and immediately apologized that She was so Tired and that's why She slept forgetting their Tradition. Smiling at Her, Arnav nodded.)

Arnav: That's fine. And don't need to remain Awake because all are tired. We will continue Our this Tradition Some Day later.
Dhruv: Arre. No way. We haven't Climb Mountain Everest for which all are tired. Between We are Young & Young People don't get tired easily. (Teasingly) But since Payal looks like an Elder so She got tired easily. Right?

(Once again both Twins started to fight with each other and Arnav had to intervene.)

Arnav: Times up. And fighting always its not Good. You both are Grown up so Act like One not Nursery Class Student.
Dhruv & Payal (At same Time): She/He started. No She/He started. You shut up.

(Seeing them fighting again Arnav sighs as its no use to say anything to them. So.)

Arnav: So what should we do?
Dhruv: Let's go Out. Have Ice-Cream.
Arnav: At this Hour? Dhruv I hardly know anything about this place and which Ice-Cream Parlour would open.
Akash (Interruptingly): Sorry to Interrupt but I know. "Have More" Ice-Cream Parlour remains open at 3 A.M.
Dhruv: And right now it's 12. Perfect. Lets go Bhai.
Arnav (Sighing): You wouldn't let it go?

(Dhruv nods in No like a Kid. Then Arnav looks at Payal but Smile on Her Lips says it She is also Ready.)

Arnav: Fine. Message Anji to come here then We will decide.

(Excitingly Dhruv messaged Anjali.)

"Anju come to Akash Bhai's Room ASAP."

(Soon in the next few Minutes they saw Panting Anjali running towards them and asked WHAT HAPPENED. Next Arnav told everything to Her and Dhruv earned a Playful Slap on His back from Anjali for Scaring Her like this. Then asked.)

Arnav: So Anji are You in?

(At first Anjali was about to say Yes immediately but stopped as She isn't Alone since She is not Alone.)

Anjali: How can I? Back there in Toronto We were alone and had many Outings together but here We aren't. Both Khushi & Naina are also Awake so how can I leave them and come.

(Listening this Arnav raises His One Eyebrow.)

Arnav: Who told you We four are going only?
Anjali: What do You mean Bhaiya?
Arnav: Everyone are going, We four, Khushi, Vivaan, Naina & Akash.

(Listening to this Akash & Vivaan got shocked.)

Akash: But how can we all go and invade Siblings Privacy?
Arnav: Akash You aren't. And it's just an Outing so don't think otherwise. What's say.
Payal: Off-course Bhai is right Akash Bhai.

(And Anjali & Dhruv nods.)

Arnav (to Anjali): Anji go & get ready and make Khushi and Naina ready as well.
Arnav (to Akash & Vivaan): And You both also.

(After this all nodded and everyone moves to their Respective places to get ready.)

In Naina's Room
Khushi is lying on Bed feeling tired and Naina is doing Her Homework sitting opposite to Bed and asks.

Naina: You okay Khushi?
Khushi: Ji Naina Di I'm fine. Feeling tired & Sleepy.
Naina: Then Sleep. Should I massage Your Head.
Khushi: No Di.

(Then they both see Happy Anjali coming towards them and.)

Anjali: Get ready We all are going out.
Naina: Is waqt? Raat keh 12 Bj rahe hain.

[Naina: At this Hour? It's 12 o'clock.]

(Listening to this Anjali smiles and says.)

Anjali: I know Naina. We are going to eat Ice-Cream.

(Then seeing Tired Khushi, Anjali immediately walks to Khushi.)

Anjali: Theek ho Khushi? Fever toh nahi horha?

[Anjali: Are You fine Khushi? Aren't You feeling Fever?]

(Listening Worry in Her Tone, Khushi smiles.)

Khushi: I'm absolutely fine. And I'm not having Fever.
Anjali: You sure?
Khushi: Yes Di I'm. I'm just tired nothing else. You were saying something.
Anjali: Yeah.

(And then Anjali told all the Conversations that happened in Akash's Room.)

Anjali: And Bhaiya told We 4, You, Naina, Vivaan and Akash Bhai are joining us.
Naina: But why us? It's Your Siblings Time.
Anjali (Interruptingly): I know. And We Siblings can have Our Time in everyone's Presence also. Acha Naina We don't have Time & Get Ready. Same goes for You Khushi.
Naina: But I'm doing Homework.
Anjali: You don't have to Submit it Tomorrow. So get up na.

(Saying this Anjali made Naina stand up and pushed into the Washroom to get ready then seeing Khushi is still lying. She comes to Her.)

Anjali: Get up Khushi.
Khushi: I don't feel like Going.
Anjali: Khushi. (Pause) Fine I will tell Arnav Bhaiya to cancel the Plan as You are not going.

(Though Anjali wasn't going to do but Emotionally blackmail Khushi as She knows now Khushi will get up.)

Khushi: Don't. Okay I will go but I won't change. I will go like this only.
Anjali: Okay but atleast change Your Dupatta. Wait, I will give You mine.

(Not giving Hear to Khushi, Anjali walked to Ward-Robe and checks for Her Stole, a Fancy Stole. Finding One She gives to Her. Then dragged Khushi and made Her sit on Dressing table chair and Tie Her hairs into huge pony-tail. After it She also get ready.

Then Trio walks downstairs where all are waiting for them.)
