The light coming from his phone helped both come out from the kitchen.

"DM raksha karna.." Khushi mumbled alone clutching his shirt from behind.

Arnav was like what-the! But still he decided to ignore her craziness for a while.

Both ascended the stairs heading to their room.

Khushi clutched Arnav's shirt more, "I'm scared. I will fall off the stairs.."

"First of all Khushi leave my shirt, because you're going to tear it, and second I won't let you fall.." he glared at her.

"Acha tik hai.." she clutched his shirt and wiped the small tears in her eyes.

"Khushi it's my favorite shirt man.." he shifted the light from his phone from the stairs to her face, "Alright I will buy another shirt Jerry.." he said it after seeing her cry.

*Thud*

A vase broke down grabbing attention of Arnav and Khushi.

"Bhoot again.." Khushi cried clutching his shirt pulling Arnav backwards as he was going to the place the sound was coming from.

"Thief again.." he glared at her.

After some seconds, both looked at each other with wide eyes realizing who it might be now.

"Di/ Anjali!!" they whispered at the same time.

Arnav: Wait here Khushi..

Khushi looked at him going annoyed, she is scared of darkness and he is leaving her alone!

Arnav walked silently around the corridor trying to spot his Di..

Akash and Mami walked out of their rooms and decided to implement their plan now itself.

"This is the right time to make that Khushi fall off the stairs. Now everyone will blame the darkness only.." Mami smirked evilly.

Akash nodded, "Go and set to work.."

Mami went from there and switched on the torch, she went near Khushi and stood behind her.

"Khushiiii.." Mami whispered in a scary voice.

Khushi jumped from the place she was standing scared, she immediately shouted: Bhoooottt (ghost) saveeee mee... Arnav...

Arnav who was about to catch Anjali and Shyam that were hiding behind a pillar, turned back, "Khushi.." he whispered her name and walked fast to reach her.

Khushi turned behind shivering, and screamed more after seeing Mami with a face pack smiling like a ghost.

She walked backwards not realizing she is going to fall off the stairs.

Mami was praying for her to walk more smiling, "Go..go..go.. Don't stop.." she prayed looking at Khushi.

Akash also watching the scene behind a pillar smiled.

Anjali and Shyam were also seeing that Khushi is going to fall off the stairs, from another pillar different from Akash.

Shyam looked at Anjali shocked: Was this your plan Anju? You have lost it..

Anjali frowned: What? She will have a small accident only and after that will stay in bed only and we will be able to live our lifes normally like we used to.

Shyam shook his head: You don't know what you're saying! It will not be a small accident okay! It will be a big one, she can even stay in coma or die because of your stupid ideas.

Shyam pushed her and went running to save Khushi.

Khushi took the last step backwards and was about to fall off the stairs but he caught her hand at the right time and pulled her back to him.

She held his arms trying to balance herself, and both looked into each other's eyes.

Rabba vee.. Rabba vee..

She hugged him, her heart was beating abnormally, she closed her eyes resting on his shoulder clutching his shirt tightly.

Arnav knew she was shocked and numb, he didn't ask anything only caressed her back trying to calm her down.

"Thank God.." Shyam said sighing in relief but didn't realize he brought trouble for himself as the lights came on.

Arnav eyed to him, "What are you doing here?"

Mami clutched her sari scared of the consequences now.

Akash came running there to save his mother, "What happened bhai?"

Khushi broke the hug with Arnav, and pointed to Mami: She scared me!!

Mami widened her eyes: Me?? What have I done Khushi? I was just asking you what are doing here!

Khushi pouted, Arnav: What is this on your face mami? Of course she would get scared seeing your face in darkness.

Khushi nodded wiping her tears with her both hands.

"And I asked you, what are you doing here?" he looked again at Shyam.

"I.. I came..here to meet Anjali.." Shyam stammered scared of Arnav.

"At this hour?" Arnav pointed to his wrist watch.

"Chote woh.." Anjali came there trembling "I called him to talk about work!"

"Di don't take me a fool okay. Shyam works in a shop, what work do you have with him?" Arnav gritted his teeth and walked near her.

"If you don't want to tell me, at least don't lie. Because you know very well I hate when someone lies to me, specially when it's someone close to me.." he looked intensely in her eyes.

"He..is.." Anjali stepped back in fear.

"Boyfriend.. Tell your brother na Anjali.." Khushi said annoyed of waiting too much for a simple thing.

Shyam squeezed her hand gently, Anjali: Haan Chote, he is my boyfriend!! I didn't tell you because..

Before she could complete Arnav went from there taking Khushi with him by holding her hand.

Anjali gulped: Chote is angry with me now.

Shyam: Why do you lie to him then? Anjali I really don't understand you. And please for God sake you three stop planning against that girl. She is only fulfilling the wishes of your own Nani!

Akash and Mami rolled their eyes sarcastically.

Anjali: Shyam go to your home now. It's getting late..

Shyam nodded and went from there.

Mami: What the hell is this boy think of himself? Couldn't you get another one Anjali? He is busy supporting Khushi instead of us.

Anjali frowned: Haan I don't know why he likes to be good good man all the time!! If today Chote caught us then it's because of him only.

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

Arshi room:

"I told you don't eat much Jerry. See today you couldn't even balance yourself and would fall off the stairs like a ball if I didn't reached on time.." Arnav smirked.

"Ha ha ha very funny Mr.Tom!" Khushi laughed sarcastically.

"See my shirt got wrinkles because of you.." he scolded her and went to the bathroom to change his clothes.

Khushi smiled at him going, "Thank you for saving my life Arnav.." she whispered and leaned on the recliner.

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

Morning..

Payal was packing her things to pass few days in her parents home.

Akash came out of the bathroom and hugged her from behind, kissing her hair.

Payal found it strange, he and romancing these days, yet she felt good. It's a sign that he is thinking about her nowadays.

"Payal don't go.." he whispered in her ear.

"Sorry Akash! I just confirmed with ma that I'm going.." she smile turning to his side.

"But.." he tried to say something but was too late, she already picked her bag and went downstairs looking gorgeous!

Downstairs, Anjali specially prepared breakfast for her brother to calm him.

She waited for him to come downstairs eagerly with Mami who took care of making the table perfectly. They don't want to witness an angry Arnav today.

Khushi clapped her hands astonished, "Are wah Angry Raizada makes everyone dance on his tunes. If I knew this formula before, I would surely use this to make them do what I want.."

Mama came back home with newspaper on his hands, he couched trying to control his laughter.

Khushi asked him what happened and he started narrating to her.

Flashback..

"God please save me from Arnav bitwa anger.. I don't want to face him as rakshas tomorrow.. You know I didn't push Khushi off the stairs.. My face packwa did that.. Punish my face packwa..not me.. Please.. Tomorrow I will do everything Arnav bitwa likes.. I will make the table and breakfast for him on time.. I will.. I promise.. Just don't make him discover I did that to Khushi.. Please.." Mami mumbled sweating on her sleep.

Mama looked at her confused, "Manorama what happened? What are you mumbling to yourself? Have you gone nuts?"

Still she didn't respond to him, instead held her ears in her sleep, "I'm sorry Hitler Singh Raizada.."

Mama laughed out loudly and slapped her cheeks lightly, "Manorama wake up from your nightmare.."

Flashback ends.

"Hahaaha.. Hitler Singh Raizada.." Khushi laughed and went running to her room to tease Arnav.

"Huh! Where is he? He was here now only.." Khushi thought rubbing her chin.

She went out of the room and found HP mumbling alone something..

"HP did you saw Arnav?" she asked him.

"Malik is in ironing his clothes.." HP said with a surprised tone.

"Acha.." Khushi whispered with a surprised smile also, she went to the room and opened the door.

And she found the most cute scene ever for her, Arnav ironing is shirt alone like a good boy and OP trying to make him leave all that.

OP: Malik I will do it, please leave it Malik.. Did I do something wrong? Please don't fire me.. I will iron your clothes..let me..

Arnav glared at him: OP just disappear from here like HP did. You're more stubborn than him..

OP cried: Malik please.. Don't work.. I'm here.. I will do it.. This is my job Malik..

Arnav glanced at him: Are you iron man that this is your job only? OP just go!

OP went from there and Khushi walked inside the room.

"Good boy. I like it.." she crossed her arms smiling.

"Good morning for you too.." he replied sarcastically.

Khushi: Arnav you're too good yaar.. Not more than me.. But you just did magic to Mami and Anjali. You need to see them downstairs, they are cooking for you and all to calm you down.

Arnav frowned: What the..

Khushi: Are you angry with Anjali?

Arnav: No..

Khushi nodded and stood there silently.

"How would you feel if you were in my place Khushi? I took care of her like my little sister and what I got in return is discover her with a boyfriend in our house like that! And she didn't even look into my eyes to tell the truth, she lied to me in my face Khushi. If not angry, what would I be?" Arnav looked at her in her eyes unknowingly he touched the iron with his hand.

"Ouch.." he hissed in pain looking at his hand.

Khushi ran to him and held his hand, Arnav winced and withdrew his hand from her.

She looked at him worried and made him sit on a chair.

"Wait.. I'll bring first aid box.." she said it running outside the room and returned in seconds back to him.

She applied ointment on his hand slowly, Arnav hissed: Leave it dammit..

Khushi blows air softly on his hand, "Shh.. it will hurt it a bit na.." she scolded him in a soft tone.

"It's already hurting a lot.." he said hinting at Anjali.
