Arnav climbed the stairs with Khushi in his arms, she was praying to DM to not fall now.

"Don't you trust your husband?" Arnav rolled his eyes staring at Khushi with her hands joined and looked up.

"I trust my husband, not this sleepy Arnav. What if you forget we are in the stairs and sleep here? I will fall down na" Khushi pouted.

"I will fall first Khushi!!" Arnav gritted his teeth.

"So what? I will after you too.. what matters is that I will fall down the stairs in the end.." Khushi looked at him with big eyes.

"Now I changed my idea. I will make you fall first and will go to my room and sleep.." Arnav said.

Khushi pouted, "DM please bless me with Heaven then. My own husband is planning to kill me"

Arnav: Khushi shut up! I don't like when you talk like this..

Khushi pointed to the stairs with her cute sad face, "Didn't you said you will make me fall??"

"No, I would never plan to kill you.." he nodded sideways.

Both shared an eye lock, she understood why did he got angry suddenly and he looked at her as if promising with his eyes that he would never hurt her intentionally.

Nisha descended the stairs and found Arnav with Khushi in his arms, standing in the middle of the stairs.

She bit her lips, with tears in her eyes. "Why can't you love me Arnav? Why can't you see my love for you??"

"Good morning!!" Nisha said after she cleared her throat.

"Good morning Nisha.." Khushi said smiling, she started pushing Arnav gesturing him to leave her. But he did just the opposite, Arnav tightened his grip on Khushi sending a glare to her.

"Morning Nisha..." Arnav said and quickly went to his room with Khushi, otherwise she would leave him to stay and chat with Nisha.

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

After some hours, everyone woke up and was having breakfast together now.

Karan pouted glaring at Nisha: Why did you wake up early Nisha??

Arnav rolled his eyes: Khushi and Nisha just spoiled our plan!

Khushi slapped Arnav's arms: Didn't I go to sleep back with you??

Arnav smiled staring at her, perhaps she didn't realized it but today morning she slept with him on the same bed and today he made her use his belly as her pillow. He was stroking her hair till she gets sleep again!!

Nisha: I wasn't sleepy.. My head aches and I woke up to have a strong coffee!!

After she said that, she stare at Arnav to see if her words affected him, but it only broke her heart in pieces when Arnav was lost in Khushi, it irked her to see him staring at Khushi, as if she only exists in this world and others don't matter to him at all.

Mami: Maybe it's because you drank bhang dear.. or you just danced and run here and there..

that's why..

Nisha nodded smiling, Khushi: Do you want any meds Nisha??

Arnav looked Nisha, "What happened to you Nisha?"

Meera and Karan giggled, "Lover Boy!! Pay some attention around you too.."

Arnav glared at Karan and Meera, while Khushi blushed and whispered to Arnav: If they knew what an Aakdo I got as an husband.. you're very far from being a lover boy..

Arnav: Khushi this Arnav for you is by far the best one from those Arnavs I'm with other girls..

Khushi giggled sarcastically, "Is this your best?? Oh my Devi Mayaaa.. If I suffer like this, then what else happened with those bechari ladkiis (Poor girls)"

Arnav smirked, at the idea on his mind: Nothing happened to those girls. In fact, every day they would get red roses, then they also got used to my kisses.. after that.. you know..

Khushi's eyes welled up hearing this, she didn't felt this when he used to talk about his girlfriends, but now that she realized her love for him, it hurts hearing him talk about another woman instead of her.

She pushed the chair backwards and went from there running.

"What happened to Khushi??" Mama looked at her going worried.

Arnav face palmed, "Didn't she realize that I was teasing her?? Oh god Khushi is so innocent.."

He went behind her, as fast as he could to clear the misunderstanding.

Mami smiled brightly: Khushi is pregnant!!!

Everyone shouted: What?????

Mami closed her ears with her palms frowning: I have no intention to become deaf! I meant to say in daily soaps, when a girl leaves the table running, then it means she is pregnant na?

Mama face palmed: Manorama really?? When the girl leaves for bathroom at least, here Khushi went outside..

Karan: Gosh Mami you scared me!! He is still a Chote na.. Let all start calling him Bade (Big) and then you can start thinking of him being a father..

Nisha gulped at the thought of Arnav having a child with Khushi and not her.

"No way!! I can't let my dream of many years to get destroyed only because of Khushi. Arnav knows Khushi only for some months, while he knows me well since we both were kids. I can keep him more happy than any girl.. He belongs to me only.. He is only destined to be with me.." Nisha thought caressing her temples.

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

Arnav sat on the bench near Khushi, she moved a little creating a distance between them.

"Leave me alone Arnav.." she glared at him, while tears were running down her cheeks.

"Why should I?" he asked wiping her tears with his thumb.

"Because you're very bad.." she complained letting him wipe her tears away.

"Do you think I ever gave roses to any girl?? I never approached them Khushi, because I knew that they would come to throw themselves on me.. The truth about my relationships with these girls were only for the business world.. They were only dates, or if it last for some weeks then they were my current models like Lavanya, who would never leave me and always kept clinging to me.. I didn't had patience to say them to leave me otherwise I would have to bear their emotional scenes and all.. One thing I assure you Khushi, I never went so

close to any girl.. I reserved that right only for my WIFE, only my Wife, the woman I know will not throw herself on me and do anything to gain my attention, she is the woman who makes do things I never thought I would only to gain her attention, to stay close to her (Arnav remembered the part where he threw the pillow to the road to sleep close to her).."

Khushi stare at him touched by his words, "Then that "after that..you know".. you said, means nothing..na??"

Arnav pinched her nose: I was kidding with you Khushi..

Khushi smiled cutely to him.

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

At evening, the family returned to Raizada mansion. Arnav who was having an allergy for not working one whole day, as his punishment for losing the Hide and Seek game, badly needed his laptop by his side now.

Khushi giggled seeing him with his laptop on the sofa talking with Mama and Akash. She went to the kitchen to prepare his black coffee.

Nisha was already doing her duty. Khushi started making coffee for him supposing that Nisha was making it for herself.

Nisha smiled: Khushi you don't need to do it. I'm already making it for Arniee..

Before Khushi could say anything, Arnav came to the kitchen, "Khushi please make black coffee for me!"

"I was about to make it for you now Arnav, but Nisha already made it for you" Khushi said with an amusing tone.

"But I need yours Khushi! Didn't I told you that you cook exactly like my mumma?? I love everything you make for me Khushi.. especially my favorite black coffee and kheer.." Arnav said with a smile spreading on his face.

Nisha was hurt by his statement, she especially learned from Ratna how to make kheer for him and he loves Khushi's kheer, the one who doesn't even know how Ratna used to make it..

Arnav looked at Nisha: Nishuuu do one thing, give this coffee to Mama. Khushi will make it for me and Payal will make it for Akash.. so we three will chat while having coffee from their respective wives..

Khushi covered his mouth with her palm laughing, "Nisha isn't married to Mama ji.."

Arnav bit his tongue realizing what he said. While the two laughed about it, Nisha clenched the cup of hot coffee letting her hand burn.
